Chapter 263

"If he can't get Ada herself, he wants to clone a version of Ada."

"He conducted an experiment, cloning a woman who deeply loved him into Ada's likeness."

"That woman was Carla Radames; she earned her Ph. D. in genetics at age fifteen, a decent genius, but unfortunately she was only average-looking."

"She worked for Simmons and gradually fell in love with him."

"But she was too ordinary to attract Simmons."

"Simmons's affection for Ada filled her with intense jealousy."

"After she was modified to look exactly like Ada, she hated Simmons—and hated Ada even more. I think his attack on you was meant to use you as a knife to kill Ada, and you, you are the knife he used against Ada."

"Unfortunately, she didn't know what had happened to Ada."

"She didn't know you had just seen Ada shortly before the attack."

After hearing Jiang Hao's words.

Chris was utterly shocked.

He never imagined that even the Chief National Security Advisor of Lighthouse Country was researching viruses.

And without doubt, the viruses in many bioterrorist attacks were linked to this Chief National Security Advisor.

Thinking of this, Chris felt a faint sense of sorrow.

If even the Chief National Security Advisor is stirring up trouble, no wonder the world has become this chaotic.

Because no one is seriously doing their job.

As for whether Jiang Hao's words were trustworthy.

He believed they were.

Because Jiang Hao had no reason to lie to them.

At the same time, he was curious about where Jiang Hao had obtained this information.

This source of information was astonishing.

"Isn't it shocking that the Chief National Security Advisor is secretly doing these things?"

"But let me tell you, he's not the only one doing these dirty deeds behind the scenes—even your current BASS benefactor is doing the same."

"Impossible!" Chris exclaimed in shock.

Even Gill looked utterly incredulous.

Claire and Rebecca's expressions were relatively calmer.

After all, they didn't belong to BASS.

"Nothing is impossible."

"Of course, you're free to disbelieve it."

"Isn't Lighthouse Country always like this?"

"Praising democracy and freedom—freedom is free, but is it truly democratic?"

"Just empty slogans from the capitalists."

"From beginning to end, this country has nothing to do with ordinary people like you."

"By the way, I just heard something recently."

"Last week, a fire broke out in a small town on the Hawaiian Islands."

"The native residents' homes were all burned down."

"The interesting part is, the fire had eyes—it burned every native home, but not a single villa built by the wealthy on the island was damaged."

"Not even the trees and lawns in front of their villas were touched."

"There's something even more interesting."

"When the fire broke out, no alarm was raised, and the entire island lost water and electricity immediately."

"Rescue teams and food supplies didn't arrive in time."

"I heard the government notified them via text message to jump into the sea to escape the fire."

"But because the fire was so intense, the smoke still blew toward them, and I heard there are shark schools in the waters around the Hawaiian Islands."

"Even more interesting is that, to this day, many native residents are still floating in the sea there."

"Only after the fire burned for three days did the fire department arrive on the Hawaiian Islands—saving plenty of cats and dogs, but as for people, sorry, they rescued not a single one."

"Oh, by the way, there's the Land Acquisition Bureau."

"These people are impressive—they arrived on the island and immediately located the owners of the ruins."

"They knew exactly the size of each destroyed house."

"Tell me, is this what your government calls a natural disaster—or a man-made one?"

As he said this, Jiang Hao could barely suppress a laugh.

But he was a professional—he forced himself to hold it in.

Chris and the others turned their faces beet-red.

There was nothing to be done—it was too humiliating.

Besides, they had all heard about this incident.

The government's handling of this matter.

Was indeed utterly absurd, making it hard not to believe there was a conspiracy.

That was why Chris and the others' faces turned beet-red—it was too humiliating.

"Your country, from top to bottom, has long been rotten. Do you still believe this country is democratic?"

"To the wealthy, ordinary people are merely consumables."

"They don't care how the world turns out, because no matter what happens, their lives will remain comfortable."

"Moreover, you cannot resist them," Jiang Hao said with a smile.

Chris hesitated, about to speak but holding back.

In the end, he merely sighed.

The expressions of Rebecca, Jill, Claire, and the others were not particularly pleasant either.

213 Because they had no way to refute Jiang Hao.

"Alright, let's stop the story here."

"I plan to go down for dinner; do you want to join?"

Chris and the others did not refuse.

Having just completed their enhancements, they now had a great need for energy.

And eating is the simplest way to obtain energy.

After finishing their meal.

Chris was just about to go to the front desk to book rooms for himself and the others.

It was already nearly eleven o'clock at night.

At this hour, they could not leave even if they wanted to.

They would definitely have to stay here for the night.

They certainly could not afford a presidential suite like Jiang Hao's.

They were not as wealthy as Jiang Hao.

Just as they were about to book rooms.

Chris's phone rang.

He took out his phone and looked.

The caller made Chris pause in surprise.

But he still answered the call very quickly.

There was no choice; after all, the caller was Leon Kennedy.

He had traveled a great distance to bring the man over to help; now that the man was calling, he certainly could not refuse to answer.

"Where are you?"

As soon as the call connected, Leon's voice, heavy with panting, came through.

Chris paused in surprise.

But immediately afterward, gunshots came from the other end, and Chris instantly realized he had overthought it.
