Chapter 249

When Chris carefully examined their condition.

His pupils immediately contracted.

Because he saw his team members rapidly mutating.

Clearly, they had been infected by a virus.

The person who ambushed them did not kill them, but instead released a virus into their bodies.

Thinking of this, Chris became furious.

Most infuriating was that none of them knew where the person had ambushed them from.

Soon, the infected team members mutated into hideous monsters.

Clearly, this was yet another new type of virus.

Chris and his team members had no choice but to painfully kill their mutated teammates.

But the person hiding in the shadows did not leave immediately.

Just as they had finished off the mutated teammates.

That person ambushed them again.

In the end, Chris's group, except for Chris himself, was wiped out completely.

And because Chris was injured, he forgot what happened that day and also forgot who had ambushed them.

This struck Chris hard, and he simply quit BASS.

Because of this incident, Rebecca even called specifically to comfort him.

But it was of no use.

Chris's sister, Claire, did not know what had happened to her brother.

At this moment, she had just disembarked from a plane at Will City International Airport.

She had just flown over from Europe.

She is currently working for an organization called Save the Earth.

This organization is mainly concerned with environmental protection.

Her trip to Will City this time was not for business, but to visit a friend here.

That was someone she had helped before.

The two had agreed that whenever she had free time, she would come over to play with her.

She came this time to fulfill that appointment.

After all, she happened to have a rare few days off.

And coincidentally, Claire did not know where to go for this holiday.

So she simply came to Will City.

As soon as Claire got off the plane, she saw the person coming to pick her up.

"Long time no see, Claire."

"You too, long time no see, Fanny." Claire warmly hugged Fanny.

Fanny is a Middle Easterner, nearly fifty years old this year, a middle-aged woman.

Claire had once rescued her.

"Laurie, this is Sister Claire, say hello quickly."

"Hello, Sister Claire."

"Hello, little girl, your name is Laurie, right? What a cute girl." Claire smiled and greeted Laurie Chola.

"Claire, Laurie is my niece; her mother is my sister, but she had an accident." Fanny did not explain too clearly.

But Claire immediately understood her meaning.

Her gaze toward Laurie instantly became full of pity.

What a poor girl, losing her parents at such a young age.

For a moment, Claire's maternal instincts overflowed.

"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore, let's go. Is this your first time in Will City? I must take you to have a good look around here; Will City is quite fun." Fanny changed the subject.

Clearly, the previous topic was not suitable to continue.

After all, they had just met.

And Claire came here to have fun.

Talking about such sad things would be too much of a mood killer.

"Okay, let's go."

Just as they were about to leave, Fanny suddenly felt some discomfort in her stomach, feeling like she was about to explode.

"Uh, Claire, my stomach is a bit uncomfortable; please help me watch Laurie for a moment; I'll go to the restroom first." Saying this, she immediately started jogging toward the toilet.

She was afraid that if she delayed any longer, she would explode.

Watching Fanny's comical movements, Claire found it somewhat amusing.

Afterwards, she looked at Laurie. "Laurie, may I call you that?"

"Of course."

"Let's go, let's find a place to sit and wait for your aunt; she'll probably take some time," Claire said.

"Mm." Laurie nodded.

Afterwards, the two found a place to sit and began to wait.

Not long after, Claire was attracted by a commotion.

She looked up.

She saw a fat-bellied man, escorted by several men in black suits who were clearly bodyguards, walking out.

There were also many reporters nearby.

This immediately made her realize the middle-aged man's identity was not ordinary.

He certainly couldn't be a big star.

After all, with that face, no one would hire him for a movie.

That left only one possibility: he was a government official.

"Senator Dai Weisi, do you admit to the rumors online that you accepted bribes and gave certain corporations special favors?" A female reporter, holding a microphone, asked Lang Dai Weisi.

"Dear lady, these claims are clearly defamation. As everyone knows, I own no villas or luxury cars, which proves I have little money—how could I possibly accept bribes? This must be slander by certain individuals."

"Senator Dai Weisi, regarding the recent surge in biochemical terrorist attacks across the region, what is your opinion? Do you think such an event could happen in Will City?" Another reporter asked.

"I think it's impossible. After all, Wil City has always had excellent public security."

"Then what is your assessment of those protesting the government's inaction?"

"I… I'm sorry, I have another appointment, I'm in a hurry. I'm very sorry, but this interview ends here." Lang Dai Weisi glanced at his wristwatch.

He spoke out directly.

Then he signaled the bodyguards beside him to push through the reporters.

197

They escorted him toward the exit.

Seeing this, Claire found it amusing.

Not because of Dai Weisi's words, but because of his ridiculous expression while speaking.

She thought she'd be better off as a circus performer than as a politician.

She turned her gaze away and looked to the side.

But she found that Laoni was gone.

Claire was startled and immediately stood up.

Then she looked around.

"Bad man."

As Dai Weisi walked, he suddenly felt something strike his face.

It was a paper ball.

The one who threw it was a little girl, no more than six or seven years old.

"Big bad man," Laoni shouted again.

Dai Weisi was no good man.
