Chapter 402: Chapter 402 Ji Muye Has a ssage for You
Montlay’s personality is self-centered to the extre.
People like him carry an intense narcissistic trait, believing themselves to be invincible and omnipotent.
Cheng Cang suggested, “Since there are only two fingerprints, why not try both?”
To his suggestion, Lu Xining shook her head and said, “Typically, the doors of biological laboratories trigger an internal alarm after the first failed fingerprint attempt.”
“If an internal staff mber uses the wrong finger by mistake, they’ll need to disable the alarm via the back-end system to gain a second fingerprint verification attempt. If it’s a non-staff mber, what awaits them could be infrared annihilation.”
He raised an eyebrow, “The kind that cuts people into pieces instantly like in the movies?”
Lu Xining glanced at him and replied, “Yes.”
“From what I know, the latest infrared annihilation system has already appeared in the Underground Dark City. After slicing, it initiates a high-temperature roasting mode imdiately.”
Cheng Cang felt deeply intrigued by what she ntioned, “What does that an?”
Seeing his curiosity, Lu Xining diverted her gaze from the fingerprint replica finger sleeve in her hand to Cheng Cang’s face.
She smiled and said to him, “You’ve heard of crematoriums, right?”
“This latest high-temperature roasting mode is similar to that. It’s a temperature humans cannot withstand. When blood and flesh fall apart and hit the ground, high heat imdiately evaporates all moisture, turning everything into powder in an instant. The vacuum system in the area then absorbs every trace of ash, leaving absolutely nothing behind.”
Watching her calmly describe such chilling details.
Cheng Cang’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He coughed to cover up his montary panic and said, “How can you say such things so calmly?”
“You get used to it.”
Doctors inevitably deal with human tissues.
Moreover, the adept masters Lu Xining t through Fu Junhang, though often difficult in temperant, were exceptionally well-inford about such matters.
Almost the mont a “new product” erges, they notify them to stay alert on safety asures.
Know yourself and your enemy, and you’ll never lose a battle.
Cheng Cang’s understanding of the Chu Family mbers and remnants of their old faction ca entirely through his foster father.
After his foster father passed away, he acted as an idle street thug in public, deceiving those searching for the Chu Family’s remnants, while privately keeping tabs on relevant information.
Until the first ti Lu Xining appeared in Fuxian.
Cheng Cang observed her from the shadows, and at the mont he saw her gentle features, he thought this generation of the Chu Family was finished, assuming she was a softhearted woman.
Unexpectedly, his lustful younger brother had malicious intentions toward her at the ti.
Just as he hesitated about stepping in, she effortlessly perford a clean over-the-shoulder throw. Her movents were swift and agile, without unnecessary flair, and every move was direct and precise.
This reignited his hope.
When Cheng Cang shared his initial impression of her during this conversation, Lu Xining offered little reaction.
She ended their discussion with one straightforward sentence:
“Villains usually die because they talk too much.”
Cheng Cang nodded knowingly and replied, “So what you an is, I talk too much, huh?”
“Glad you understand.”
Lu Xining pulled out her laptop to attempt infiltrating the Royal Cruise’s network system. However, as she progressed to the later steps, the firewall blocked her.
She wasn’t ready to give up and began probing for other vulnerabilities.
Noticing her quickly imrsing herself in work, Cheng Cang didn’t idle either. He explained that he had already relayed the ssage earlier, advising the remaining Chu Family faction on the Royal Cruise to pay more attention to certain peculiar habits of Montlay—like which finger he often uses.
Yet, even after the fingerprint replicas were completed, no relevant information arrived.
Montlay, despite his brash deanor and self-centered arrogance, was still highly vigilant after years of roaming the seas and executing countless sches.
But below the lower decks of the Royal Cruise, besides the sprawling biological laboratory that occupies an entire floor, there’s another unique area.
It’s Montlay and Danrus’s private quarters, known as the “Beauty Den.”
Both of them are indulgent in lust.
Years of drifting on the sea haven’t curbed their desires in that regard.
To better indulge themselves, they maintain a group of beauties of various styles onboard the Royal Cruise.
Besides the two of them, Yilijite and Rexiva occasionally visit to “sample the goods.”
Cheng Cang shook the phone in his hand and said, “We have an inside operative in there who’s already been instructed to inquire about these aspects. Perhaps they’ll uncover sothing useful.”
Lu Xining, however, leaned toward Montlay’s thumb.
For soone like Montlay—so self-centered—there’s a sense of extre confidence in himself.
After a brief silence, Lu Xining said, “Have soone note which finger Montlay tends to wear the family crest ring on.”
Cheng Cang replied, “Alright.”
For smoother information exchange, Cheng Cang decided to stay in Lu Xining’s room, keeping her protected as well.
While Lu Xining continued her efforts on the Royal Cruise network system, a knock ca at the door.
Cheng Cang quickly moved to the door, peered through the peephole, and saw Shang Lvxing standing outside.
He had an inexplicable feeling about this man.
“It’s Shang Lvxing. Should I open the door?” Cheng Cang walked back to Lu Xining’s side and asked her quietly.
Lu Xining looked at the failed page on her screen and decisively closed her laptop.
The mini fingerprint replica machine, after completing its task, transford back into other mundane items like rings, necklaces, hairpins, pens, and notebooks and was put back in their designated spots.
Except for the two fingerprint gloves in her possession, everything seed perfectly ordinary.
After ensuring everything was in order, Lu Xining finally instructed Cheng Cang to open the door.
Many had seen him follow her back to the room earlier without stepping out since then, so there was no need to hide him in another part of the suite now.
Instead, being open and candid appeared more natural.
The door opened.
Shang Lvxing saw Cheng Cang answering the door, showing no signs of surprise in his expression.
Carrying sothing in his hand, Shang Lvxing nodded to Cheng Cang in greeting before heading toward Lu Xining inside.
Cheng Cang glanced outside to check, but saw no suspicious figures.
Ever since the incident with Lott and glimpsing the morgue’s bodies, the guests who boarded the ship had retreated to their rooms, frantically contacting their families to arrange their retrievals. None had the courage or intention to continue the voyage.
Even the gala’s centerpiece—the “Heart of the Deep Sea”—had been neglected.
Reviving youth at twenty years old or dying now… which mattered more? Everyone knew the answer.
Lu Xining looked at Shang Lvxing as he entered and asked, “What’s the matter? Has sothing happened?”
Earlier at the morgue, she noted Shang Lvxing’s absence, and now, with his sudden appearance, her nerves could not help but tighten.
“I figured you might need this.”
Once the item was opened, Cheng Cang’s gaze instantly tensed.
The item Shang Lvxing brought was shockingly identical to the one they had just crafted—a fingerprint glove!
“By the way, Ji Muye asked to deliver a ssage to you.”
