360: Chapter 359: The Mysterious Person 360: Chapter 359: The Mysterious Person The night had lifted, and daylight had arrived, but Ning Fan had not slept a wink all night.
After discovering that there were others surveilling the villa last night, Ning Fan stayed up as a precaution, meditating in the living room the whole night.
Ning Fan hadn’t recognized the person in black; last night, Long Zhixin hadn’t engaged Ning Fan directly but had been constantly on the run.
The fact that the other party could utter ‘Ninth Master’ indicated they definitely knew him.
Hit by his Silver Needle, it was uncertain whether that person was dead or alive, so, just to be safe, Ning Fan hadn’t slept all night.
It was already light out, and Xu Ruolan had woken up early as well.
She came downstairs and saw Ning Fan standing in the living room.
“Did you stay up all night?”
In the middle of the night, Xu Ruolan had noticed Ning Fan returning alone from outside, then staying quietly in the living room ever since.
“It’s nothing, just thinking about some stuff, don’t worry about it.” Ning Fan replied with a slight smile, choosing not to mention last night’s events.
However, Xu Ruolan was extremely perceptive and felt that something was off.
She paused, deep in thought, as if realizing something.
“I have already contacted the military, and the person from that special department will be here soon to take over.”
“That’s a good thing.
After all, that stuff is really important, and who knows what might happen if we keep it here, heh heh heh.”
Ning Fan said this in a jovial tone, but his eyes were very serious.
Last night’s visitor was almost certainly after the Genetic Potion, and Ning Fan was very concerned about it.
Xu Ruolan’s cool and stunning face shifted slightly.
She wanted to say something to Ning Fan, but in the end, she held her tongue.
Afterward, she entered the laboratory alone and emerged about half an hour later, carrying a black suitcase.
“I think I’ll go with the person from that special department today.
I want to personally oversee the transport.”
As Xu Ruolan came out, Ning Fan voiced his thoughts.
The Genetic Potion was crucial to Xu Ruolan; there was no room for error, and with someone already targeting it, Ning Fan naturally could not stand by idly.
Xu Ruolan instinctively wanted to object, but after a moment of reflection, she realized the importance of the Genetic Potion and nodded in agreement with Ning Fan’s suggestion.
“Be careful, and if something feels wrong, get out fast.
It’s better to destroy it than to take any risks!”
Xu Ruolan was more concerned about Ning Fan’s safety than the Genetic Potion.
Ning Fan felt a warmth in his heart.
Although Xu Ruolan’s way of showing concern was still rather cool, wasn’t this a rather good start?
More than an hour later, a group of people in black arrived at the villa.
Five large SUVs were parked outside, and they had the villa surrounded.
“Miss Xu, as agreed, we are here.
Is everything ready?
Is that it?”
The leading figure in black said expressionlessly, looking at Xu Ruolan, then directing his gaze to the suitcase in her hands.
“It’s in this case.”
“Good, please hand it over to me.”
“Wait a moment, there’s something I need to discuss with you first.”
Xu Ruolan did not hurry to hand over the suitcase but glanced at Ning Fan first and asked the man to hold on.
The man in black showed no reaction and remained expressionless, standing in place, waiting for Xu Ruolan to continue.
“This time, when we transport the Genetic Potion, one of my people will be going as well.”
As she said this, Xu Ruolan pointed towards Ning Fan, who, at this time, stood up and offered a slight smile to the group of people dressed in black.
“No problem, but once we arrive at the destination, Mr.
Ning won’t be able to enter, so we’ll have to put him out then.”
It seemed the other party had done some homework before arriving since they recognized Ning Fan.
The leader of the individuals in black didn’t reject the proposal, which eased both Xu Ruolan and Ning Fan.
Since the other party was so amicable, Ning Fan also relaxed significantly.
“Be careful.”
As she was leaving, Xu Ruolan whispered to Ning Fan.
Standing at the doorway, she looked just like a wife sending her husband off on a long journey.
Ning Fan responded with a confident smile and then carried the case onto one of the SUVs, ready to head to the military’s designated location with them.
Five SUVs neatly left the villa area and, after exiting Zhonghai City, took the highway directly.
Ning Fan held the case in his hand.
The entire cabin was quiet until he asked, “Are you all from that special department?”
Next to Ning Fan was the man in black who had handled the transfer with Xu Ruolan at the beginning.
“Yes and no,” the man replied succinctly.
Ning Fan pursed his lips, seeing that the man didn’t want to talk more; he didn’t press the issue.
In fact, many among these people were elites from security companies, not individuals from the specialized department that Xu Ruolan had mentioned.
Simply put, those responsible for transporting the Genetic Potion this time were hired by the specialized department, which is why that man had given such an answer.
After driving on the highway for some time, the traffic became sparse until only their five SUVs remained.
“Something’s not right,” Ning Fan furrowed his brows trustingly, feeling that something about their surroundings was becoming increasingly abnormal.
The transporters also sensed the anomaly and prepared for battle.
Next, the convoy entered a tunnel; inside, everything still seemed normal, and no accidents occurred.
Once they exited the tunnel, they saw five figures standing afar, four men and one woman, lined up, dressed in black leather trench coats with cold expressions, blocking the path ahead.
The five individuals were wearing sunglasses, and with their cold demeanor, they looked extremely imposing.
They each held a whip in their hands, with orange-yellow high-voltage electric arcs running along them, dangerous and deadly!
“Go through them!”
Without hesitation, the man sitting next to Ning Fan, who was evidently the commander of the transport operation, immediately gave the order.
Upon receiving the command, the drivers of the three leading cars slammed the accelerator, and the massive vehicles instantly became unstoppable tigers, charging at the five people.
“Wait a minute!” Ning Fan suddenly called out, trying to stop them from proceeding with this move.
Regrettably, his warning was a step too late.
The man in black next to him turned his head in confusion just in time to see.
The only woman among the five struck first.
As the SUVs charged towards them, she swung her electrified whip with a flick, slicing the front of the first vehicle in half in a single stroke.
With a thunderous crash, the bisected vehicle slammed into the guardrail, killing all inside instantly.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Astonishing flames shot into the sky, turning the entire highway into an inferno.
