Pretending To Be A Boss

Smart people have always been lazy, but once they get to work, they are extremely efficient.

Tang Xian acknowledged this about Li Xiaoyu. Shortly after hanging up the phone, he received a message from Li Xiaoyu, and someone immediately came down to meet Tang Xian on the fourth floor.

The person who came was inconspicuous. He looked just like most of the white-collar workers on the third and fourth floors, even sporting the thinness and dark circles under the eyes common to those who work long hours.

"My name is Bu Jing, the Second Miss sent me to pick you up."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Tang Xian sized up Bu Jing and, seeing that he was very sincere, he didn't suspect anything and nodded his head.

Bu Jing was somewhat surprised and asked, "You don't suspect?"

"I'm in a hurry," Tang Xian didn't want to explain further.

Bu Jing nodded his head.

Li Xiaoyu had blocked Tang Xian's external communications, and unlike Eve, Bu Jing was not aware of the relationship between Tang Xian and Li Xiaoyu.

But anyone personally instructed by the Second Miss was certainly an honored guest.

"This is my ID card, no matter what you plan to do, please complete it efficiently."

The ID card was a pass.

Tang Xian had thought that Li Xiaoyu would arrange for someone to create a temporary pass, but instead, she directly gave her ID card to him.

He instantly understood what it meant.

Bu Jing would remain on the lower level, and for the time being, Tang Xian would operate using Bu Jing's identity. If there was any exposure, and the plan failed, Bu Jing would be the disposable scapegoat.

Looking at Bu Jing, though young, he showed no complaints, and his subordinates, though thinking Li Xiaoyu is an idiot, seemed to really respect her.

Bu Jing was aware of what Tang Xian was doing. Without being pretentious, Tang Xian simply walked into the passage.

About half an hour later, he arrived at the fourth level.

The fourth level was essentially paradise. The humans living here enjoyed the fruits of labor of those on the lower three levels, living extremely affluent lives.

Tang Xian's attire seemed somewhat out of place, but being able to walk here, the onlookers probably thought Tang Xian was like some performers from the fortresses.

Advocating for equality or the like.

It was worth respect, but no one was willing to share their power in hand with the lower classes.

Tang Xian didn't linger; after inquiring a bit, he found the location of the Evolution Zone.

People mentioned the Evolution Zone with a tinge of fear, as that place always had many entering, but none ever came out.

Although they were lives of the lower levels, not worth caring about, it still made one involuntarily curious about what kind of terrifying institution it was inside.

At the entrance to the Evolution Zone, there were no less than sixteen cameras monitoring all directions.

Tang Xian didn't know what the Evolution Zone was like normally, but today, he felt his timing was very apt.

Enhanced sense of smell allowed him to detect the scent of blood permeating from inside the Evolution Zone through the thick metallic fortifications.

Tang Xian briefly furrowed his brow.

At the entrance, there were twelve armed guards.

Based on his sense of smell, in the passing square, a large number of guards were running around, as if some emergency situation had occurred inside.

He opened his tool bag, then put on the mask he had prepared beforehand, as well as the chopper.

The chopper was made by Ke Ye exactly according to Tang's design, a legitimate kitchen knife with the pointed tip resembling that of a butcher's knife.

Holding the knife, Tang thought his current appearance must be quite bizarre.

Although this appearance would undoubtedly cause alarms if he went into any other institution, the Evolution Zone should be different, as Akasi and his cohorts probably had more exaggerated attires than his.

So, Tang decided to just walk in.

"Halt, your pass," the guard quickly stopped Tang, who was wearing a mask and holding a chopper.

"I didn't bring it, I'm in a hurry, delivering a task," Tang said, while pulling out two perfect-grade Soul Crystals from his bag.

For those people, such items were commonly seen, and they could tell the quality at a glance.

Tang really hadn't expected that getting into the Evolution Zone would be much easier than he thought.

No one would wastefully use two perfect-grade Soul Crystals as a bluff. To those present, only the monsters residing in the trial area could accomplish such feats.

So, Tang was allowed to pass.

Tang felt that if the others believed him, there was no need for pretense, and casually inquired about the directions.

He wasn't worried at all that the group would suspect he was an impostor.

From Eve's symptoms, Tang deduced that the organization used drugs to erase memories to control these powerful new humans, like Anai.

The guards had indeed encountered such cases before. They carefully told Tang the route. They didn't want to offend these monsters from the trial area.

Tang didn't let down his guard.

The more lax the outer guards and the less strict the work checks, the more it indicates absolute perils inside; no one would dare to infiltrate the Evolution Zone recklessly.

Following the route given by the guards, Tang revealed a smile, somewhat similar to that on the mask, giving off a somewhat sinister vibe.

Upon entering the trial area, Tang was certain that something very serious had happened in the Evolution Zone.

The red alarm lights were flashing, a large number of armed guards were heading somewhere, and he was closely following them.

Apart from those guards carrying green military-grade weapons, there were also humans in strange attire and bizarre forms.

Among these people, the mask and chopper actually seemed quite normal, and surprisingly, not a single person doubted him.

"Truly a friendly organization."
