Chapter 106: Nublar Island

The Larvis Hotel is like this?!

Sun Cheng could not help but feel a bit surprised!

Although he had been resting with his eyes closed on the road earlier, mostly to avoid the taxi driver's spit, he had occasionally squinted to look outside the car and noticed that the capital of Costa Rica did not look much larger than some third or fourth-tier cities back home, at most just slightly more prosperous.

However, the fact that the hotel specifically mentioned in the invitation letter was like this made him feel a bit disgruntled.

So, without getting out of the car, he looked at the hotel and asked the driver: "Is this the Larvis Hotel?"

Seeing his look of disbelief, the driver didn't get angry; he smiled, picked up the towel around his neck to wipe his face, and then replied: "There is only one Larvis in the entire San Jose district, and this is it..."

The San Jose district was the most prosperous central area within San Jose city. After the driver explained this, although Sun Cheng was still somewhat skeptical, he had no choice but to believe him.

So he paid the fare, grabbed his luggage, and got out of the car, frowning as he walked toward the small hotel in front of him, which looked even worse than a fourth-tier county hotel back home.

Pushing the door open to enter the lobby, Sun Cheng couldn't help but take a few extra looks.

The hotel's interior decor was a bit old-fashioned, but it could be considered unique. Above the lobby hung a large, antique chandelier, and the surrounding walls were covered in exquisite wall paintings with a strong Spanish flair; at first glance, one might think they were in Madrid.

Sun Cheng saw this and finally let out a slight sigh of relief. Seeing a middle-aged white man in a suit walking toward him, he thought to himself: "This must be the place!"

Sure enough, the middle-aged white man walked up to him with a slight smile and said apologetically: "Sorry, sir. The hotel has been booked out; unless you have an invitation letter, we do not host outside guests here!"

He spoke in English rather than Spanish, seemingly unsure of Sun Cheng's identity.

"Is it this?"

Sun Cheng calmly took an invitation letter from the inner pocket of his suit and handed it to him.

Upon seeing the golden invitation letter in his hand, the middle-aged white man's expression changed slightly. He hurriedly took it, examined it carefully, and only after confirming the invitation was genuine did he bow slightly to him again and step aside.

"Excuse me, honorable guest. I will arrange for someone to take you to rest and prepare dinner for you immediately. If you have any dietary restrictions, please be sure to inform us. As for heading to Nublar Island, we will arrange for everyone to be sent over together tomorrow at noon after all the guests have arrived!"

He did not return Sun Cheng's invitation letter, but the fact that this mysteriously received invitation turned out to be real made Sun Cheng both happy and surprised. He was happy because he was finally closer to 【Jurassic Park】, and surprised because until he left Nandu, he had not been able to find any clues about the two mysteriously appearing invitation letters.

However, Sun Cheng was not prepared to show these worries in front of outsiders. Knowing well that saying too much leads to mistakes, he just nodded slightly, pushed his suitcase, and followed a waitress summoned by the man into the hotel.

It must be said, while the Larvis Hotel didn't look like much from the outside, the interior decor was actually not bad. Although it didn't compare to a star-rated hotel, it was much more exquisite than most chain hotels back home!

Led by the waitress into a room on the fifth floor to rest, Sun Cheng put his suitcase inside. After looking around and feeling satisfied with the accommodation, he turned back to look at the waitress waiting on the side without rushing to leave, and tried asking in English: "Do you speak English?"

"Yes, guest, everyone in our hotel speaks English!"

Foreigners look old, especially after thirty, making it hard to estimate their age.

Sun Cheng looked her over carefully. The waitress was of average to below-average appearance, with a slightly short and stout figure, tan skin, thick lips, and high cheekbones; she was clearly a local. He couldn't help but ask: "Was the person who greeted me just now the manager of your hotel?"

"No, he is a client who booked our hotel temporarily." After answering a few questions, the waitress became a bit impatient and asked: "Guest, if you haven't had dinner yet, you can go directly to the 2nd floor to eat. If there are no other instructions, I will head down now; there may be work waiting for me in the lobby!"

"Go ahead!"

Although Sun Cheng hadn't had dinner, he had tasted a few local snacks earlier while waiting to board at Panama City Jichang because he was feeling greedy, so he wasn't very hungry now.

After closing the door, he quickly took out the ultra-thin laptop that Hanyi had turned into, along with the Camera that Revenge had turned into, and placed them on the table.

"Hanyi, can you connect to the internet?"

"No problem, Master..."

Hanyi quickly connected to the internet, waiting for his instructions, "Check the information on Ada Wong and the Atlas Venture Capital Fund..."

Although he had accidentally snuck into the Larvis Hotel thanks to the invitation letter that was inexplicably stuffed into his dormitory, Sun Cheng could find very little useful information now. So, once he found a new tracking path, he had the idea of trying to investigate along this new lead of Ada Wong while on the plane.

Hanyi's function light flickered for a dozen seconds before the data it collected began to pop up one by one.

"Ada Wong, 27 years old, Chinese-American. Graduated from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, currently working at the Atlas Venture Capital Fund, serving in the Venture Capital Department, and has been awarded a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu..."

Hanyi's investigation was very detailed; not only did it find photos of Ada Wong from her university days online, but there were also many travel and life photos posted by her. Sun Cheng was also deeply impressed by this beautiful and exceptionally sexy woman, and couldn't help but take a few extra looks before flipping over to look at the content regarding the Atlas Venture Capital Fund.

"Atlas Venture Capital Fund, a well-known venture capital firm in the United States..."

The following pages were all data regarding the Atlas Venture Capital Fund and its past investment records.

After Sun Cheng patiently finished reading it, his brow furrowed again, "Still can't find any information about the 【Jurassic Park】 project..."

He rubbed his forehead with a headache. This 【Jurassic Park】 seemed to have popped out of nowhere; no matter how he investigated, he couldn't find anything detailed. Now it seemed he could only wait to risk joining the team to Nublar Island tomorrow and go see what kind of special existence that 【Jurassic Park】 integrated into the real world really was!

After washing up early and going to bed, Sun Cheng got up early the next day. He did a few sets of simple stretching exercises in the hotel to loosen his muscles and bones, then went to the Canting on the 2nd floor of the hotel to prepare for a meal.

It was a real coincidence; just as he arrived at the Canting and ordered a portion of the specialty Spanish seafood paella to try, he unexpectedly saw a tall, sexy figure walk into the Canting—it was none other than Ada Wong.

"A cup of Indian black tea, a tuna sandwich, and a beef sandwich..."

Just after ordering, Ada Wong turned around and noticed Sun Cheng sitting in the corner of the Canting waiting. Sun Cheng was certain he saw her expression freeze, but she quickly put on a charming smile and walked toward him on her own.

"Is Mr. Sun Cheng also here to attend the investor meeting for International Genetic Technologies?"

She had changed into a silver-gray women's suit today. Whether it was because of the depth of the collar's opening, Sun Cheng always felt that the fullness of her chest looked significantly more prominent when he looked at her.

"I really didn't expect to meet you here again, Ms. Ada Wong..."

Sun Cheng's expression remained unchanged. He resisted the urge to look at the strange crystal on her neck and looked at her with indifferent eyes, "Speaking of which, when I accidentally saw that invitation letter on the plane yesterday, I wanted to chat with you a bit more..."

"Call me Ada!"

Ada Wong pulled out a chair and sat down opposite him, looking at him with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "Too bad, yesterday I just thought I had met another man who wanted to have a romantic encounter with me on the plane..."

The corner of Sun Cheng's eye twitched slightly; he really hadn't expected this woman to say it so directly and bluntly.

However, although he hadn't had much contact with her, this woman named Ada Wong gave him an indescribable, strange feeling.

Especially the crystal on her neck that had inexplicably caused him to experience strong emotional fluctuations, which made him, who had become more suspicious after suffering a loss not long ago, secretly raise his guard.

"Compared to a romantic encounter, I am more curious about how Ms. Ada appeared in Nandu..." He was silent for a moment before opening his mouth to ask again.

"Trade secret..."

Her fair fingertips rubbed back and forth on the edge of the tea cup that had just been delivered. She smiled slightly at Sun Cheng, with an inexplicable light flickering in her eyes, "You are also here for the 【Jurassic Park】 project, right? Although I don't know which company you are from, it's clear you also heard the rumors... I heard the technology of International Genetic Technologies is already mature. We will be sent to the island for a visit this afternoon. Why don't we cooperate? If our two companies join forces, we can swallow the entire investment quota for the C-round. This is a golden goose that guarantees profit!"

Sun Cheng's eyes flickered. He had already realized that the woman in front of him indeed knew some information he was completely unaware of.

Eager to obtain more intelligence from her, he pretended to think for a moment, then quickly nodded slightly, "Happy to cooperate!"

"Happy to cooperate!"

Not knowing if it was an illusion, Sun Cheng always felt that the moment he agreed to her, his peripheral vision caught some inexplicable little movements from her.

A tongue lightly licked the lips?!

What is that supposed to mean, treating oneself as an appetizer?

Or...

It must be an illusion!
