Chapter 99: Escort Mission

After a little over fifteen minutes, Brando finally caught sight of an approaching Jeep. The vehicle stopped in front of him before a Chinese man hopped out.

The man appeared to be in his mid-20’s. He was on the plumper side and seemed very cheery. When he saw Brando, he managed to relax a little and extended his hand with a smile. “Hi, you must be Mr. Brando.”

“I am and you are?” Brando nodded and shook the hand of the man before him.

The man pulled out a name card. “The name’s Qian Wenhuan, the executive officer of the Human Resources Department of Blackwatch Biotechnology. The boss instructed me to pick you up.”

Brando took the name card. Blackwatch Biotechnology Co.Ltd was written on it.

“Sorry, I forgot to turn on my phone after I got off the flight.” Brando nodded.

“It’s alright. Strictly speaking, the issue came from my end.” Qian Wenhuan made a gesture. “Right, why are you standing out here?”

“I knocked but the security didn’t let me in,” Brando answered blankly.

“Alright, I may have neglected some details.”

Qian Wenhuan’s expression suddenly turned sour as he seemed to have realized something. He quickly s.h.i.+fted the topic and invited smiling. “Please enter the car. I’ll take you to the canteen first before taking you to the staff dormitory.”

“I think that won’t be necessary.”

Brando got in the car from the other side and glanced at Qian Wenhuan., “I had dinner on the plane. Just take me to a place where I can rest. Also, I’d like to see your company’s boss as soon as possible.”

“Ah, got it. Regarding the matter with the boss, I’ll be sure to let him know first thing in the morning.” Sensing an overbearing aura from the other person, Qian Wenhuan quickly averted from his gaze and promptly nodded.

For some unknown reason, when Qian Wenhuan made eye contact with his man, it reminded him of the oppressing feeling of locking eyes with Cheng Cao.

No, it was more than that. Even though the aura Cheng Cao gave off was on par with this man’s, this man also equipped a terrible hostility. It reminded him of a recruit facing a battle-tested veteran.

Perhaps this meant that this group of people was similar to Cheng Cao back then, candidates for G.o.d’s Forbidden Zone organization?

Qian Wenhuan was occupied with the thought while driving.

Earlier this morning, Chen Chen suddenly gave him a stack of information sheets and instructed him to pick up a group of people at the airport.

Qian Wenhuan went through them, most of them came from different parts of the African continent. Most of them were either regular office workers or investors.

The oddity being that most of them were Caucasian. There were Middle Eastern Europeans, Europeans, and Oceanian. The majority of them were North Americans.

The files stated that this man called Brando worked in the IT industry. Qian Wenhuan who was familiar with the industry could instantly tell that this man did not give off the impression of being part of the IT industry.

It was pretty telling that this Brando was no IT professional but a soldier. Chances were that he had been on the battlefield before.

When the Jeep came in front of the gate, the camera identified the vehicle and automatically opened the gate. Qian Wenhuan drove past the gate and brought Brando to the dormitory Chen Chen had appointed.

The dormitory was in the Northwest wing of the research center. It was not connected to the other dormitory building but instead, separated by a large distance.

When this building was constructed, they specifically used material that was more resilient than the other buildings. It may only be five stories tall, but anti-burglary nets were installed on the windows of every floor.

Apart from that, the strongest security doors were used in every room in place of regular wooden doors.

When the building was constructed, many people did not understand the point of constructing such a bizarre dormitory wing. Qian Wenhuan felt like he was beginning to understand Chen Chen’s intentions.

“Mr. Brando, please come with me.”

After exiting the car, the two of them entered the otherwise silent dormitory.

The conditions of the dormitories built by Chen Chen were pretty remarkable. It was designed completely in accordance with the standard large-sized room design, well facilitated with air-conditioning, computer, closet, and a toilet. Even the pickiest person should not have any qualms about it.

“Mr. Brando, here are the keys to your dorm.”

Qian Wenhuan picked the first room on the second floor on a whim. He then picked out a key labeled C201 from a large set of keys and handed it to Brando. “The canteen served food at 8:00 am, noon, 6:00 pm, and 10:00 pm. If there’s anything you need, please don’t hesitate to contact me.”

After that, he turned around and left, leaving the empty room behind for Brando.

Brando stood by the window and saw the Chinese man getting on his Jeep and driving off. He then closed the curtains and thoroughly inspected the room.

After half an hour’s work, Brando finally concluded his task and put the equipment such as desk, lamps, and computers back in place.

Not bad. There were no signs of a surveillance system installed in the room and there were no guards posted either. If he wanted to leave, this research center was a sieve, free for easy exit.

However, why were they so content with being so lax with him when they did not even know what sort of person he was yet?

Also, the agent had informed him that this was a new mission. What was that supposed to mean?

Brando sat on the soft and comfy mattress, and fell into deep thought.

...

“Boss, it’s Wenhuan, are you up?”

The next morning, when Chen Chen had woken up, he heard Qian Wenhuan’s voice coming from the pager by the door.

Chen Chen elicited no response and went to the door to open it. Qian Wenhuan, with dark circles under his eyes, walked in with a stack of information.

“Boss, I went to get Brando yesterday midnight following the flight ticket’s schedule.”

Qian Wenhuan took out the topmost file. “But he didn’t turn on his phone when he got off his flight. By the time I managed to contact him, he was already at the entrance of the research center.”

“Have you situated him in block C yet?” Chen Chen sat on the sofa and took large gulps of hot water.

“He settled down there last night. There’ll be six more arriving today,” Qian Wenhuan replied.

Chen Chen looked at the dark circles under Qian Wenhuan’s eyes and smiled. “These people are very important. You’re the head of the department, I don’t have anyone else to appoint this task to others than you.”

“I understand.” Qian Wenhuan sighed quietly and did not raise any complaint.

“How about this, I’ll a.s.sign one more car to you.”

Chen Chen thought about it. He set his cup down and leaned backward. “You can bring up the other staff from HR. This way, you can reduce your workload.”

“Got it.”

Qian Wenhuan was relieved upon receiving the news. He suddenly recalled something and reported, “Oh yeah Boss, those local security guards are starting to get ahead of themselves. Yesterday, Brando told me that when he rang the door, the guards did not give him any information.”

Chen Chen reacted with a slight frown and mentioned with an icy smile, “No big deal, they’ll be replaced very soon. I’ll have these people ‘resign’ automatically.”

“By resign, you mean?” Qian Wenhuan jolted.

“Aren’t you taking the new security force back here already?” Chen Chen only smiled and rapped the top of the coffee table with his index finger, making a knocking sound.

Qian Wenhuan suddenly caught on and answered excitedly, “I get what you mean now. Does this mean that they’ll be joining our...”

“Let’s see how it goes first. There’ll be another filtration process later on.”

Chen Chen did not try to hide it. “Provided there are no further accidents, they should all be joining the organization.”

“Got it.” Qian Wenhuan became relieved when he was informed of this. So, that was why the boss had sent him to escort them. All things considered, he was the second most important member of the African branch of the company, next to Chen Chen. If this was done for the sake of G.o.d’s Forbidden Zone, then it did make sense.

As a member of seniority, it would only make sense that he got to look over the potential new members...

Qian Wenhuan approached the door before he suddenly recalled something and turned around. “Boss, Brando asked me when are you going to meet him?”

“When I’m going to meet him?”

Chen Chen thought for a moment. “Tell him this. When his companions have all gathered, I’ll meet them.”

Qian Wenhuan took note of that and left the room.
