Chapter 1889: Freemasons

“What’s in it?”
Because his back was facing Song Jinmin, Lin Yi didn’t notice the slight expression on his face.
As for Song Jinmin, he quickly hid his emotions so Lin Yi didn’t notice anything.
“Here, take a look.”
Song Jinmin handed the syringe to Lin Yi, but the box was still in his hand.
Lin Yi first looked at the liquid in the syringe and found that it was viscous, very similar to the gene medicine developed by the Mitsui family.
However, the color was different.
“We’ve got everything. What are you doing there?”
Seeing that Song Jinmin was still rummaging through the box, Lin Yi asked.
“I’m afraid there’s a hidden compartment in the box. I have to look more carefully.”
Song Jinmin violently tore open up all the hard sponges in the box and destroyed the logo on it.
Lin Yi wanted to see it, but it was already impossible.
“Nothing, it’s just that,” Song Jinmin shrugged and said.
Lin Yi didn’t think too much about it because the syringe in his hand attracted his attention even more.
“I think it should be a gene serum. What do you think?” Lin Yi said.
“I’ve seen the gene potion developed by the Mitsui family before, but it was light blue.”
“Almost, but no one knows the exact level it has reached.”
Song Jinmin glanced around. “Let’s go. This isn’t the place to talk.”
“Okay.”
Although they decided to leave, Song Jinmin didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he used a lighter to ignite the things in the room. Soon, the fire became uncontrollable.
“Let’s go.”
Song Jinmin called out, and Lin Yi nodded.
The two avoided the cameras and left Fosse’s room.
“Isn’t this a bit too much? Your kill-and-cover-up act is a bit too thorough.” “Better to be cautious.”
Song Jinmin’s expression turned serious, as he realized the gravity of the situation.
He was grateful he joined this mission. If he had let Lin Yi handle it alone, he might have encountered an unexpected incident.
Watching the raging fire through the top-floor windows, Lin Yi couldn’t help but think that these people were truly like a bunch of bandits.
What was even more ironic was that his father was actually their bandit leader. “Let’s go. This is not the place to talk.”
Although it was already early in the morning, a city like Doza was still lively at this time.
In other words, the lights of the city at night were almost unextinguishable in this rich region of the Middle East.
The two of them found another hotel and settled down. They booked a plane ticket for the next morning and prepared to return to Doora.
“Ever since you came back, you’ve been staring at that gene serum. Did you find anything?”
“I’m wondering why Fosse killed himself and didn’t even fight for it.”
“At Fosse’s level, he’s smarter than most people in the world. He already saw the situation clearly.” Song Jinmin said.
“There’s no way you were going to let him go. Instead of being tortured, he might as well die a quick death, just like when we first met Mammon.”
Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully, seemingly agreeing with Song Jinmin’s point of view.
However, there was one more thing that Song Jinmin did not explain.
Even if Fosse could escape from Lin Yi and survived, his fate wouldn’t be any better.
I he person who made the deal with him would not let him off. Death was inevitable.
“Do you think this syringe was what Fosse wanted?” Lin Yi said, “Isn’t it a little too little?”
This was because he had seen a complete gene potion before. Each one contained at least ten milliliters. The amount in front of him was clearly not enough.
“I don’t think so either.” Song Jinmin said.
“Black Snake isn’t solely Fosse’s. He couldn’t exchange two kilograms of ore for a single dose of the drug. Rather than enhancing personal strength, it would be better to improve the overall power of the organization. Even if Fosse wanted this, the other person in charge on the island wouldn’t agree.”
Song Jinmin lit a cigarette, paused, and said, “In my experience, no drug is worth that much money. It’s likely just a sample.”
“A sample?” Lin Yi couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s not a cosmetic, why would there be a sample?”
“In business, it’s normal to let the buyer see the product first.”
“So, according to you, their transaction wasn’t completed yet. It’s a pity we didn’t find the ore.”
“Given your country’s situation, even if you obtained the two kilograms of ore, it would only be used for research. Your Yanlong team produces quite a bit each year, so it’s not a significant loss,” Song Jinmin said.
In comparison, obtaining that gene serum is a huge deal.”
Lin Yi nodded silently. “But I have a hunch that the people Fosse was dealing with might be from Mammon.”
Song Jinmin looked up at Lin Yi.
“Why do you think that?”
“With their strong intelligence capabilities, they should have found out that
Fosse had the ore. But they haven’t acted until now, so…”
“So you suspect the trading partner was someone from Mammon?”
“Yes.”
“Don’t be too tense. Even with their strong intelligence, they can’t cover everything. There are always oversights. But it’s hard to say who exactly it is, and there’s no need to be overly concerned.”
Song Jinmin stood up and stretched. “Don’t think about anything else for now.
The mission here is completed. Have a good sleep and return to Doora tomorrow. After all, it’s not very safe here.”
Lin Yi nodded. He was a little tired after such a long time.
After resting for a night, the two of them boarded a flight to Doora the next day.
After returning to Doora, Lin Yi did not stay here for long.
He first returned to the hotel and got the photo frame he had retrieved from the island. Then, he took a plane back to Yanjing.
As for that bottle of serum, it was a prohibited item. Lin Yi handed it to the local embassy and asked them to think of a way to transport it back to the country.
Outside the airport, Song Jinmin took out his phone and called Lin Jingzhan as he watched Lin Yi’s plane take off.
“Is everything settled?”
“Fosse is dead. It’s just as we guessed. They traded the ore for the gene serum.”
On the other side, Lin Jingzhan was very calm. The only thing worth trading ores for seemed to be gene serums.
“Since you’re done, come back. There are still many things to do on the island.” There’s something else I need to tell you,” Song Jinmin said in a deep voice. “Previously, we guessed that the person who made the deal with Fosse might be from Mammon Organization. However, when we made a move last night, 1 realized that it was not the case.”
Lin Jingzhan became serious. “Is there someone else?”
“Freemasons!”
