On the coast, Agent Larsen and his team approached the location where they had lost sight of Kaito for about ten minutes. Zhong Feng had prevented them from taking action immediately and insisted that they could blow Kaito's cover before he met with the target.
Due to this, they had to wait for the agreed-upon time to ŀȧpse before going to find Kaito. Once the period ended, Agent Larsen directed his crew. This time, Zhong Feng did not stop them.
Within a few minutes, they found Kaito standing over the body of a man in casual coastal clothes. He was sprawled on the ground inelegantly, and he looked dead,
Immediately, Kristian trained his firearm on Kaito with eyes filled with fire and justice.
"Are you that anxious to kill me, Agent Larsen?" Kaito was unthreatened.
Kristian did not lower his weapon.
"You should know that he is only unconscious. He tried to manhandle me. I could only defend myself." Kaito laughed.
In the end, the agent could only lower his weapon.
"When will he wake up? Time is of the essence." He asked angrily.
"There is no need to worry about that. He told me the location at which he was supposed to rendezvous with his compatriots. We can make a projection of the location of the ship based on an ȧssumed speed, the rendezvous destination and the expected meeting time." Kaito waved a hand casually.
Kristian Larsen could not keep calm at the carefree attitude.
"He gave you all this information while he was manhandling you, and you were defending yourself?" He asked with obvious sarcasm.
"What can I say? The man is a multi-tasker." Kaito laughed. "We should get out of here. Otherwise, we might not be able to take action."
As two Interpol agents pulled up the man on the ground, three black helicopters came into the coastal area and hovered over the small airstrip.
Zhong Feng smiled. "It looks like the cavalry is here."
On the ship, Hu Lei faced the frustrated Dr Brown. However, she was not in a rush to let her know why she could not replicate Hu Ming's experiment. She bent down and tore her dress to free up her legs. She had long become tired of her restricted movement.
"Do you plan to attack me?" Dr Brown asked. "You should know that I am not defenceless. Even if you did manage to take me down and even eliminate the guards at the door, you will have to deal with the others on the ship. Not to mention that we are no longer at the dock."
The woman smiled to herself.
"You are thinking too much. I just feel a little constricted in this dress. Though, it is a shame that it has been damaged." Hu Lei replied as she methodically tore sections of the clothing.
"Stop wasting time. You are not going to accomplish anything by stalling." Dr Brown felt irritated.
Hu Lei smiled.
"A lady should not be so impatient. But since you insist, I will tell you." She paused. "My father did not manage to do any genetic editing on me. He merely triggered some of the junk DNA in my genome."
Harriet Brown was silent for a while before becoming angered.
"I already know that from the reports. I have already tried this methodology a hundred times without success. Each attempt was worse than the other." She shouted maniacally.
"Not to boast, but I am a little special." Hu Lei laughed. "Even my non-coding junk DNA is not junk."
"What do you mean?" Dr Brown tried to calm down.
She felt as if she was listening to the Heavenly Dao. All the answers she had sought for years were within the words that Hu Lei was speaking.
"This secret is too important. Do you mind if I close the door?" Hu Lei said innocently.
Dr Brown knew that the woman was probably playing a trick, but she did not care much about it. As she had told Hu Lei, she could fight. Moreover, they were on a ship. Unless Hu Lei could beat down all the people, take over the ship and man it herself, she could not threaten her.
"Alright." She said impatiently.
Hu Lei laughed and went on to lock the door.
"I will now tell you the most tantalising secret." She came closer to Dr Brown. "I am not a real girl."
Dr Brown's face darkened in anger as Hu Lei sat back down on the couch.
"I can just have you taken to a lab and dissected right now, Ms Hu. One way or another, I will find your secrets." She shouted again.
"It is not my fault you do not believe me."
"Make yourself clear, or I will no longer be courteous." The woman spoke through gritted teeth.
Hu Lei sighed. "I am Pinocchio, and my father is Geppetto."
"You mean…" Dr Brown's eyes cleared up.
"Indeed. I am a fine creation from my very conception. You can keep creating monsters, but you will not create anything like me." She smiled.
Dr Brown's eyes became maniacal, and she licked her lips.
"Interesting, interesting." She said with a loud laugh. "You have given me the key to a kingdom that I never imagined that I could enter after decades of work. With this, I will be able to change the human race. Homo Novus is not a faraway dream anymore."
Her eyes glistened as she looked at Hu Lei.
"I will start with you and understand the fabric of your genetic material. With this, I will be able to design another you. No, I will design hundreds of humans that are better than you." The raucous laughter that followed was reminiscent of a supervillain.
"We will see if you have the ability." Hu Lei smiled and stood up.
Seeing this, Dr Brown also stood and looked at Hu Lei cautiously.
