Chapter 795: Chapter 800 Ultimate Purpose
Tsk tsk! Who would have thought Liu Xiyao had such a proclivity? Had I known this earlier, I wouldn’t have left just now. Maybe I could have had the chance to appreciate Liu Xiyao’s graceful figure.
Sigh! Ling Chen patted his forehead, what was he even thinking about? If that really happened, he would be caught red-handed by Nanrong Wanqing. By then, he would have no excuse for his behavior.
Shaking his head, he cast aside the thoughts in his mind, and Ling Chen lay flat on the bed, breathing in the lingering scent of Liu Xiyao on the sheets. Unconsciously, Ling Chen drifted off to sleep.
He had no idea how long he had slept when he groggily woke up. Picking up his mobile phone to check the time, he found it was still early, only two in the morning, and he had slept for almost five or six hours.
Having slept for so long, he felt wide awake. Ling Chen got up to wash his face, then left the room alone and headed to Hu Fei’s office. He wasn’t sure if Hu Fei was asleep at this hour.
Arriving at the office, Ling Chen pushed open the door and heard only the sound of snoring coming from the sofa. Turning his head, he saw Hu Fei lying on the sofa under a blanket, sleeping soundly.
Although Hu Fei was asleep, his computer was not turned off, and the monitor screen was still on. With nothing better to do, Ling Chen walked over to the computer, sat down, and casually tapped a few keys on the keyboard.
Instantly, several folders popped up on the computer screen. However, they were all password-protected and inaccessible. Ling Chen typed in a password with more than ten digits, then pressed the enter key, and the encrypted folders immediately opened up.
These were confidential files personally guarded by Hu Fei, the password known only to him aside from Ling Chen himself.
Entering the folders, Ling Chen opened several documents one by one, carefully scrutinizing the information within. After going through several documents consecutively, something seemed to dawn on him. His brows unconsciously furrowed, and his eyes held a hint of surprise.
...
Early the next day.
After a night’s sleep, Hu Fei finally woke up. Sitting up from the sofa and stretching with a yawn, he heard the sound of keyboard tapping beside him. Focusing his eyes, Hu Fei saw Ling Chen in front of the computer, intently staring at the screen, completely unaware that he had awoken.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Hu Fei rubbed his eyes, got up, and walked over to Ling Chen, then glanced at the computer screen.
Seeing the information Ling Chen was looking through, Hu Fei asked with confusion, "Why are you looking at these things? Didn’t I show them to you yesterday?"
Without even raising his head, Ling Chen said, "I’ve been researching it all night. I think I know why those billionaires are connected to the God Organization."
"Oh?" Hu Fei asked curiously, "What’s the reason?"
Typing on the keyboard, Ling Chen pulled up dozens of photos, all minimized on one screen. Then pointing at the first one, he said, "Take a look. This man is named Yang He, over seventy years old now, and a well-known billionaire in the country. Reportedly, his personal assets exceed twenty billion, and he owns a chain of stores nationwide. Of course, that’s not the main point. Take a good look; these pictures are all gathered from the internet. Over the past two years, Yang He has appeared at many different events, and every appearance was captured by journalists."
At this point, Ling Chen enlarged two of the photos and asked, "Fatty, take a close look. Do you notice any differences between these two photos?"
Hu Fei leaned closer to the computer screen and examined the images. After a while, he nodded and said, "You’re right, there is a difference. These two photos seem to show him looking younger in one and older in another. Hey, did you get the wrong pictures? They should be from the same timeframe."
"No mistake, these are from the same period, and the time difference between the two photos is only half a year."
"Half a year?" Hu Fei exclaimed in surprise, bewildered, "How could there be such a big difference in such a short time? That’s completely irrational. Even with good maintenance, one couldn’t possibly look years younger all at once."
"That’s exactly the issue," Ling Chen said. "I collected many photos; these pictures are enough to illustrate a lot of issues. Look at this one; this is a photo of Yang He from two years ago. Back then, he was already very old, needing assistance to walk. But look at him now, this old man walks briskly, and even has two young and beautiful girls by his side."
Hearing this, Hu Fei immediately stopped joking around and said gravely, "Are you implying that this old man is gradually becoming younger?"
"Yes." Ling Chen nodded. "We’ve had quite a few dealings with the God Organization, and we’re all too aware of their capabilities. They’ve always focused on drug research and human experimentation, starting with simple strength-enhancing serums all the way to the Lucifer project, all aimed at enhancing human physical functions. The Lucifer project can instantly amplify a person’s constitution by several times, which holds epoch-making significance for any power or nation. However, to the God Organization, the Lucifer project was an unsuccessful experiment. Remember how we discussed it before? Even the Lucifer experiment didn’t meet the standard for the God Organization, so what are they really after? I think now we can draw a conclusion."
"The ultimate goal of the God Organization should be to research reversing aging and breaking the limitations of age," Hu Fei concluded at last.
"Exactly." Ling Chen nodded. Saying this, he couldn’t help but take a deep breath. Reversing aging is the dream of many scientists, but a dream is just a dream, impossible to achieve. Yet, the God Organization is gradually turning this dream into reality.
This can be seen from Yang He’s case.
Tsk Tsk!
If the God Organization could indeed develop a method to make people younger, it would be a remarkable achievement for humanity.
"Ling Chen, the God Organization’s ambitions are indeed grand. Hey, if Yang He became younger, does it mean the God Organization’s research has succeeded?"
"That’s hard to say. By the way! Didn’t you instruct Liu Dongsheng to take action? How is it going?"
"He’s already on it. The first target is Yang He. I’ve checked; he will attend a ribbon-cutting ceremony in East Sea City in the next two days, and his new company is officially opening soon, inviting many socialites. Miss Nanrong is a well-known figure in East Sea City; she must have received an invitation too. Do you want to go with her to check it out?"
"Forget it!" Ling Chen shook his head. Nanrong Wanqing was angry at the moment and didn’t want to see him. There was no need to provoke her now. Since Liu Dongsheng was already in action, it was better for him to stay put at the base.
"Fatty, tell Liu Dongsheng to act quickly. Also, he must be cautious. Since Yang He is linked with the God Organization, there’s no guarantee he does not have God Organization’s people around him."
"Don’t worry, I’ll remind him of that."
