Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot! Chapter 240: Subject 7374 Has Reached the Summit of Jiuming

"Sister Ning, are you okay?" Lin Yuanyang asked.

Ji Ning responded with a "hm".

The aura around her subsided a bit.

She continued pondering the things she had just speculated about.

If she wanted to completely replicate her experiences, it would definitely be a massive project. How could they make the puppet truly feel the changes in the environnt?

Where in the Hua Continent could such an environnt be constructed?

Could the people appearing around the puppet really keep everything a secret?

Ji Ning thought for a long ti but still couldn’t figure out how to cultivate a puppet to replicate herself.

anwhile.

A piercing sound rang out on a certain island.

Imdiately afterwards, a person in a lab coat, eyes bloodshot, stared at the screen in front of them.

The screen was split into two parts.

On one screen, a young girl in a tight outfit, with a blank expression, was running towards the top of Jiuming Mountain.

On the other screen, a girl stood inside a 360-degree movable space capsule, wearing a specially designed helt, with each of her limbs connected to a thick black cable.

At the mont, she was running, the roller under her feet spinning rapidly.

"Quick, number 7374 has reached the top of Jiuming Mountain."

"Prepare for injection, 10, 9, 8..."

"Boom—"

As the sound of an explosion rang in the girl’s ear, a thin needle pierced into her neck.

"Phew— it’s finally a success! Hahahaha..." The person in the lab coat laughed wildly, jumping and shouting with excitent.

The person beside them clasped their hands together, muttering, "We’ve finally succeeded! Thank heaven! Thank heaven!"

"Number 7374’s talent is the highest among these people, and she has already awakened three types of superpowers. She is absolutely the most perfect experintal subject."

"Exactly! Wind Elent rank 12, Water Elent rank 10, Healing rank 10. Our efforts in nurturing her weren’t in vain!"

Seeing the girl’s abilities surging like a rocket in the combined virtual and real environnt truly fills one with pride.

She is definitely a once-in-a-century prodigy!

"Are we really going to release her from the island?" soone suddenly asked.

The atmosphere in the room imdiately turned somber.

The speaker’s feelings were very complex, filled with deep reluctance.

After all, they had raised this girl from a young age to adulthood, spending a full 18 years.

"Send her off the island! Her future fortune is up to her now."

"But..."

"Don’t forget our purpose for giving up everything and hiding here for decades. Her success ans we can finally leave the island."

"Alright, I’ll call for soone."

Soon, two people in lab coats entered the experint area, removing all the instrunts from the frail girl and putting two silver-glowing tal earrings on her.

The earrings contain a tracking system, which can track the girl’s location and events around her at any ti.

With the boat carrying the girl leaving the island dock, a thunderous roar was heard from the island.

Sitting on the boat, the person turned back expressionlessly to look at the island.

Thick black smoke rose from the island, covering the sky, as if a volcano had erupted.

No one noticed that the girl lying in the sleeping bag on the ground had her fingertips twitch twice.

***

Lin Yuanyang spent the whole night looking into the data, barely managing to filter through a third of it.

Seeing him with dark circles under his eyes, Ji Ning told him to go rest.

"Sister Ning, I should finish filtering the data by the day after tomorrow." Lin Yuanyang said with a yawn.

Ji Ning nodded slightly, "Thank you for your hard work, no need to go out today."

Lin Yuanyang nodded.

He carried the Smart Brain back to his room.

The apartnt Ji Ning applied for had two bedrooms, just enough for each to have their own room.

"By the way, Sister Ning, Ye Tong asked for you yesterday, hoping you could give her a call when you have ti."

"Okay."

Ji Ning glanced at her wrist Smart Brain, but found no call from Ye Tong, obviously not wanting to disturb her work.

Walking along, Ji Ning returned Ye Tong’s call.

No one answered for a long ti, likely because Ye Tong was in training.

Ye Tong’s scenes in "Gone with the Wind" have wrapped up, and recently she has been attending special training courses at the Jiuming Mountain Base, requested by the "War God" film crew.

Because her role involved a lot of action scenes using weapons, Director Lin Anqing arranged for all the leads to enter the base early for systematic learning to better fit their roles.

They were able to get into the Jiuming Mountain Base thanks to Ji Ning’s connections.

Lin Anqing even asked Ye Tong to invite Ji Ning to dinner, but she politely declined.

Ji Ning hung up the phone and drove to the Security Bureau.

Originally, yesterday was planned for a group eting to summarize the investigation findings over the past two days, but she was called to the headquarters, so the eting didn’t happen.

When Ji Ning drove up to the gate of the Beijing Security Bureau, she saw Ah Mu waiting at the entrance.

Seeing her get out of the car, he approached with a delighted expression, "Team leader, there’s a personnel appointnt from headquarters."

Ji Ning nodded slightly. Now that both the Fu Family and the Li Family were vying for her favor, they would naturally try to curry favor; she just didn’t expect it to be this soon.

She wondered what reason they would use for her promotion?

Ah Mu saw his team leader’s calm deanor, as if she already knew, and couldn’t help but make new guesses about her identity.

This person clearly had connections within the Security Bureau, and very strong ones at that.

They had definitely backed the right person.

Ah Mu was elated, feeling his future prospects were very bright.

On the other side.

Liu Yan’s trusted secretary, Hu Bo, had already been waiting on the second floor, and upon seeing Ji Ning, took her to the director’s office.

The personnel appointnt had already spread within the office, and many were discussing Ji Ning’s identity, with so feeling proud, others envious, and even so jealous. Ah Mu followed them to his office cubicle, his joy evident on his face, which unsettled agents from other teams.

"Is Number 63 getting a promotion?" asked a sarcastic agent, unable to hold back.

Ah Mu glanced at him, smiling even wider, "Not ."

"Not you, what are you so happy about?" The agent almost rolled his eyes.

Ah Mu feigned a silly smile, "I’m happy for our team leader."

"Tch..."

Ah Mu pretended he didn’t hear, still smiling cheerfully.

Elsewhere, Ji Ning followed Hu Bo to Liu Yan’s office.

At this mont, Liu Yan’s feelings were complicated in the extre when facing Ji Ning.

"This is the appointnt letter from headquarters. It rewards you for capturing the culprit in the Sea City Food Festival case."

He pushed a folder toward Ji Ning’s side.

Ji Ning looked down at the content on top, feeling sowhat surprised.

She originally thought she would be promoted to S-Class Detective, but instead, she was directly transferred laterally to headquarters.

Although still an A-level detective, the area she was responsible for expanded from Beijing to the whole Hua Continent.

Such authority was not small.

It seed Li Wenxin was determined to make her a public figure, gathering the Ji Family Army hidden in the shadows.

Ji Ning’s mouth curled into a faint sneer, and when she looked up again, her face had returned to calmness.

"Congratulations," Liu Yan said solemnly.

Ji Ning scoffed, "A slap followed by a candy?"

Liu Yan: ...

"I need to take all my investigation team mbers with ," Ji Ning added.

Liu Yan furrowed his brow, "That’s not compliant."

"I’m used to them, I don’t want to change for now."

Liu Yan: ...

Used to them in just two days?

But Ji Ning picked up the folder, hinting, "It will be compliant."
