The First Heir
Chapter 771

Chapter 771

Fabio and the others did check the place carefully just now and confirmed that there was no one in theresearch room.

However, the figure that suddenly appeared was puzzling.

It turned out that when Fabio and the others were carefully inspecting the various rooms in theresearch lab, the figure came in quietly through the door and jumped up into the air like a gecko,spreading his limbs and firmly attaching to the ceiling. No one noticed him there at all!

After Fabio and others left, they returned to the duty room to rest.

Naturally, it was unlikely for them to check the place again, and there were also people in themonitoring room. If anything happened in the research room, it would show up on the monitors, so theywere relatively at ease.

However, in the monitoring room at this moment, the people staring at the screens did not realize thatthe monitors had been tampered with. What they were seeing was just a static screen!

Therefore, whatever happened in the research room, the monitors could not capture it!

The figure that suddenly appeared in the research room did not make any sounds after landing andquietly fumbled and approached the main laboratory.

The person’s footsteps were light and made no sound at all!

After several days of investigation, he confirmed that all the experimental data in the research centerwere stored in this laboratory in the main computer in this room!

Moreover, he had been stationed here the entire day and could confirm that the computer had not beenmoved!

In other words, if he could crack the password on this computer, he would complete the mission andget 50 million!

It would all belong to him!

After North Wolf and Vulture’s failure during the day, this person was very happy.

The mission this time was executed by the three of them, and the money was supposed to be sharedequally among them!

However, since North Wolf and Vulture failed in their mission and died, the 50 million would be hisalone!

North Wolf and Vulture were nothing but cannon fodder in his eyes, and what they did during the daywas preparation for his action tonight!

His codename was Fire Serpent, and he could be considered as the top-ranking master of stealthwithin the Stinger killer organization!

However, no one knew that his lock-picking skills were even better!

Fire Serpent used to be a legendary thief. He had peerless skills and stole from all major jewelryexhibitors in the country, but when a warrant was issued for his arrest, he disappeared for a while andonly recently reappeared again!

For this mission, Stinger arranged for three people to take action. The first two would proceed to testthe waters and it would be best if they could complete the mission on the first try. If they failed, it wouldbe Fire Serpent’s turn!

Fire Serpent crouched in front of the main computer in the laboratory. After looking at the safe severaltimes, he took out the small notebook computer he carried with him from behind and entered a string of

characters. The notebook began to resolve the password of the safe on its own!

At the same time, he placed his hand on the password lock of the safe, poised in wait. When thecalculation result came out, he would immediately open the cabinet and take out the host. Then, hewould remove the hard drive!

Of course, even if an advanced technological resource was deployed, it would still take a certainamount of time to crack the safe. Therefore, Fire Serpent was already prepared to wait and was notanxious.

However, even though Fire Serpent had taken action in the middle of the night and made sure that noone in Beacon Group would be around, when he was about to unlock the first password, a big handsilently landed on his shoulder!

In this dark laboratory, he should be the only one around. Furthermore, the only source of light was thebeam from the weak flashlight on his chest!

However, at this moment, a big iron-like grip fell on Fire Serpent’s shoulders, making him shudder allover. The horror that welled up in his heart made his breath stuck in his throat!

Could it be that this laboratory was haunted?

Fire Serpent was very confident in his stealth skills. He was sure that no one would be better than himin this respect!

He had superior self-confidence!

Furthermore, even when he was unlocking the password, he was always paying attention to thesurroundings. His ears were constantly listening to the subtle sounds around!

He was very certain that he did not hear any footsteps, so what was the deal with the hand on hisshoulder?

Could it be…

Fire Serpent frowned. Without any hesitation, he took out a shiny dagger from his torso and stabbed itbehind his back!

Regardless of whether it was human or ghost, Fire Serpent could not afford to be careless. His life wasmore important!

He did not expect that he could hurt the opponent with this strike. Since the opponent could quietlyappear behind him, his skills were definitely not below him!

Therefore, Fire Serpent’s attack was just to create an opportunity for him to escape!

However, he never expected his strike to miss the target. Instead, his wrist was grabbed as if he wasbeing gripped by iron tongs. He could not move an inch!

Fire Serpent panicked and immediately took out another dagger and stabbed again!

However, the results were the same as before!

Both of Fire Serpent’s hands were now grabbed by the opponent and he could not move them at all!

In the dark, Philip increased the strength of his grip, causing Fire Serpent to let out a painful cry. Hecould no longer hold on to the two daggers in his hands, and they fell to the ground with a clatter whilereflecting a deadly glint!

“Who are you? What do you want? If you’re also here for the research data, I think we can talk aboutit.”
