"Boss, it's bad, Professor Feng is missing!"
The sudden bad news made Xia Xu turn pale.
"What's going on? Why did he disappear?"
Xia Xu's voice sank.
Feng Wenbin is currently Xinghai Biological's chief expert in pharmaceutical chemistry. His status is no less than Gu Haiming and Yang Xiaoshuang.
Even though he had won over a large number of scientific research teams after capturing the hidden base of the Gardner organization last time, these three people are still the core of the core of the Star Sea creatures. If anything happens to any of them, it will be painful enough for him.
"Yesterday, Professor Feng led a group to the Maasai tribe to collect drug samples, but we lost contact with them afterwards. When we arrived following the positioning device, all we found was the wreckage of the jeep they were riding in..."
On the other end of the phone, a supervisor from the Heizhou branch of Xinghai Security was reporting with gritted teeth.
Black State is notoriously chaotic. It is common to encounter robberies while walking on the street in the middle of the night. Many people even climb over the wall to break into the house. The mansions of the rich are simply uninhabitable without electric fences and a group of bodyguards.
However, this is obviously a huge natural market for Xinghai Security, which runs a security business. Moreover, firearms are not banned in the local area, making it the best place for training in blood and fire.
Therefore, as early as a few months ago, Xia Xu had arranged for Xinghai Security to open a branch in Heizhou, and all personnel went to the local area to take up their posts in rotation.
But in fact, these are only secondary. Xia Xu's original intention of opening the Black State branch was actually to use it as an advance station to prepare for obtaining the local Maasai people's secret vision-enhancing medicine.
You should know that the eyesight of the Maasai people is strong enough to form the entry "Eye of Maasai" in the special attribute column.
Although this is partly due to the Maasai people's own gifted talents, it is also closely related to the Maasai secret medicine they possess. He had been coveting this thing since he saw it on Grant's Maasai teammate a long time ago.
Even now, the secret medicine of the Eye of Marseille is absolutely valuable. The enhancement of the five senses is very practical for anyone. If the [Heavenly Soldier] project can add another link to enhance the five senses, it will become more perfect.
Therefore, after the branch was established, he sent Feng Wenbin to take charge of the overall situation.
Everything went smoothly. Although I was not able to purchase the formula directly from the elders of the Maasai tribe, the Maasai tribe was not completely monolithic. I still managed to obtain a small amount of the finished secret medicine as a sample.
According to Feng Wenbin's speculation, even if the Maasai are a relatively primitive tribe, they stay within a fixed range. The ingredients of this secret medicine must be plants and animals from the surrounding areas.
So he stayed there, analyzing the flora and fauna around the local Maasai tribe, comparing them with the samples, and trying to deduce the specific formula of the secret medicine.
Until today, when I heard the bad news.
"Have you analyzed the scene? Have you found anything?"
Xia Xu took a deep breath and resisted the urge to curse.
He treasures top scientific research talents like Feng Wenbin very much, so naturally he would not let them take any risky actions.
This trip to Heizhou was fully prepared, with Xinghai Security as the vanguard, and customized bulletproof cars and elite security teams accompanying him when he went in and out. I'm afraid this is the usual arrangement for a head of state to travel.
Ever since the Xinghai Group came to the fore, he has basically arranged special security teams for all the core members of the group, but even among these people, the guards around Feng Wenbin are top-notch.
However, I never expected that something would happen.
Things have come to this point, regret and blame are of no use, Xia Xu can only keep himself calm and carefully inquire about the situation and clues.
The head of the Black State branch naturally conducted a series of searches and investigations before notifying him. If there was no other way, he would not have gone through the trouble of notifying him.
According to the report from the branch manager, Feng Wenbin led his men to the Maasai tribe to collect samples today as usual, but he disappeared mysteriously halfway through the journey.
After realizing that they had lost contact with Feng Wenbin's team, the Heizhou branch immediately rushed to the scene according to the vehicle's locator, but they only saw the remaining jeep. There were obvious signs of gunfire and mine explosions around it.
It was obvious that this was a premeditated armed attack.
The group was familiar with Feng Wenbin's route of action and had placed mines on the path in advance.
There are no roads in Black State, especially near the Maasai tribe. It's all dry grassland with sparse vegetation, and it's common to see lions and elephants walking side by side.
Therefore, the routes of vehicles there are relatively random. Without premeditated long-term observation, it is impossible to grasp Feng Wenbin's usual travel routes and times so accurately.
But this is also good news. It is impossible that the other party would go to such great lengths just to kill people. The bodies of Feng Wenbin and others were not found at the scene, so they should still be alive now.
blackmail
Seeking revenge
Is it purely a kidnapping and extortion by local forces, or is it aimed at himself and the Xinghai Group
Countless thoughts flashed through Xia Xu's mind, and finally he took a deep breath: "I will take people there tomorrow, you guys try your best to search first, and also ask the local snakes for information."
In the past two months, Xinghai Group has been in the spotlight and has attracted too much attention. In addition, the [Tianbing] project needs to be upgraded, so the most elite S-level and A-level teams of Xinghai Security are currently staying in the country.
But now that Feng Wenbin has run into problems, he has to dispatch some people over there no matter what.
"Old Zhou, Walker, you guys have to work overtime today and change the size of the graphene combat uniform for me as soon as possible. Also..."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Xu gave orders to Zhou Ji, Walker and others in a swift and decisive manner.
This trip to Heizhou is definitely dangerous, so we cannot neglect the equipment.
Because of the transformation of the [Heavenly Soldier] project, his body shape has changed a lot, so equipment such as the graphene combat suit needs to be readjusted.
After coming back, I have been busy with the Giant Spirit Power Armor and the Infinite Armor technology, and this matter has not been put on the agenda, so Walker and others need to work overtime.
"No problem, just let us know if you need any help."
From the few words and his change in expression, Zhou Ji and the others understood the seriousness of the matter, so they didn't say much. They quickly followed Xia Xu to leave Xinghai Network, returned to school, and plunged into the activity room.
Xia Xu also started to mobilize equipment and personnel. Several senior teams of Xinghai Security that were not on missions, as well as Atuo and Nine Yang Consulting members such as Yang Bowen and He Qing who were good at searching, were all notified to arrive.
"I want to see how confident this first bird that jumps out has."
This time Xia Xu was really ruthless.
Many people are eyeing the Xinghai Group, but this is the first time that a direct armed attack has been launched.
This precedent must not be set. If these people are not made an example of, many forces will surely come forward one after another when they see the weakness of Xinghai Group.
Two fists are no match for four hands. When the time comes and everyone pushes down on them, no matter how strong Xinghai Group is, it will be devoured by these hyenas, not to mention that Xinghai Group is far from being fully developed.
Once many forces act together, whether it is targeting the management or the industry, Xinghai Group will be in great trouble, so this time, whoever shows up must be hit hard.
