A Scarred Omega [Female Alpha, Male Omega] (ChatGPT Translated)

Chapter 41

"With me by your side, what do you have to fear?" 

My hand was pressed against Axiu's chest, but before I could react, he immediately sat up and walked to the door, pulling it open and asking Mu Haichao in a deep voice what had happened. 

I lowered my head and straightened my clothes, then stood up as well. 

Perhaps because he wasn't expecting Axiu to be the one opening the door, Mu Haichao hesitated for a second before saying, "Lin Qingshu is missing."  

??? 

I asked, "What do you mean? Hasn't he come back?" 

After we left the Spiral Tower and met up with Axiu, I didn't pay any more attention to Lin Qingshu and instead followed Axiu back - he was more familiar with the area and wouldn't get lost, so I didn't think there would be any problems. 

Mu Haichao shook her head and said, "No, he hasn't."  

She explained that during the time when Lin Qingshu took me to find Mr. Harris, she had received some location information from the people involved in the rescue of Bu Huaiyuan through other means, and after telling Lin Qingshu, he said he knew the place and wanted to go check it out. 

Mu Haichao originally didn't agree, thinking it was too risky, but Lin Qingshu didn't care at all and turned a corner in the Spiral Tower, heading straight for the location Mu Haichao had passed on to him. When they arrived at their destination, Lin Qingshu sent Mu Haichao a final message, saying that he had found the person he was looking for. 

"Then his brain-computer interface disconnected from mine," Mu Haichao's expression remained calm, "but we had discussed this scenario before, so he sent an emergency message with a picture." 

She opened her own brain-computer interface, shared her permissions with us, and pulled up the photo that Lin Qingshu had sent. 

Perhaps because the lighting at the photo's location was poor, the picture was not very clear. All that could be vaguely seen were many pillars standing upright on the ground, with many boxes scattered around them. In the middle was a huge oval-shaped table with some black, angular objects placed on top. 

". . . it looks a bit familiar." 

Mu Haichao said that the repaired photo had not yet been sent over. I furrowed my brow and enlarged the photo, adjusting the brightness slightly. I could barely make out the outline of the objects on the table - they looked very similar to the parts I had seen in the research lab when I went to discuss a project with the mecha research institute!

I suddenly looked up and asked, "Where is the location?"

Mu Haichao said, "153 West Harbor Street." 

153 West Harbor Street?

"I don't know that place, but the objects on the table in this photo look very similar to the parts I saw at the mecha research institute before," I spoke faster, "that institute just recently signed a business contract with our company, but I don't know if Lin Qingshu was assigned to work there. If he was -"

I furrowed my brows and said, "That means it's highly likely that the upper echelons of our company have a connection with Gao Qingping in secret, and the research institute may not be safe either." 

Mu Haichao asked, "What's the name of that research institute?"

I replied, "It's called 'Zhao'." 

She immediately sent a message to have someone check it out and asked me if Lin Qingshu could recognize these parts.
