The Daily Life Of A Cyberpunk Magician

Chapter 324 - 203: The Bed Scene with Li Yuntang Was Discovered…
Chapter 324: Chapter 203: The Bed Scene with Li Yuntang Was Discovered...In the moment the alarm sounded, Jiang Shu hugged the iron fence and scuttled to the corner of the corridor. He didn’t immediately put down the fence because his fingerprints were on it.

”Where is the alarm coming from?”

”Damage to the ventilation duct at position B-45, possible unauthorized entry by an unidentified person.”

A team of security personnel ran past Jiang Shu, who was invisible, heading towards the spot where Jiang Shu had just been, while reporting the situation through micro earpieces.

Jiang Shu, however, dawdled behind them, following the security personnel to see what the fuss was about.

”The ventilation duct at B-45 has disappeared, suspecting an intruder has entered the duct. Please send the surveillance details from inside the duct to me,” the leader of the security team spoke to the control center through his earpiece.

Jiang Shu, on the other hand, frowned slightly.

Such a big fuss over the ventilation ducts, wasn’t it just for a ”mysterious person” to crawl around? Tampering with the iron fence, installing surveillance inside the duct, isn’t this just entrapment?

Clearly a violation of the ”Basic Law of Movie Plot Settings.”

”Are there no human traces inside the tunnel?” the head of security asked back in confusion. ”What does the intruder want to do? Steal the fence? Are they insane?”

Hearing the word ”fence,” Jiang Shu instinctively hugged the iron fence and stepped back. He looked at the metal fence in his hands, feeling the strength of the alloy.

There was nothing out of the ordinary, what was there to steal?

”There is a precise positioning device inside the fence. Check the current location of that iron fence from the main control center,” the security captain’s next sentence made Jiang Shu completely freeze.

”...”Jiang Shu looked again at the iron fence in his hands and fell silent.

What now?

If he discarded the iron fence, it would appear in the hallway due to its inability to remain invisible; and with both security personnel and surveillance in the hallway...

If it were anywhere else, it might be fine, but this was Tang’s territory.

It was hard to ensure Tang wouldn’t make any connections because of this.

If he didn’t discard the fence, the security personnel would find the fence nearby...

So, after briefly contemplating, Jiang Shu started to run with the fence in hand. Thankfully, he was wearing sneakers, not leather shoes, and he deliberately treaded lightly to mute his footsteps.

Though not fast, he at least did not attract the attention of the security personnel.

And as long as he got past this long corridor and disappeared from the security officers’ sight for a moment, he had many ways to get rid of the iron fence.

”What? The alloy fence is moving? And it’s nearby? Is someone really insane enough to steal an alloy fence?” The security captain was slightly taken aback by the news. He truly hadn’t anticipated such a development.

He looked towards the end of the corridor. According to the coordinates, the alloy fence was right there, but he saw nothing.

Hmm? Could it be behind the corner?

The security captain stepped towards the location, but then stopped abruptly. He suddenly remembered the map of the ventilation duct’s route.

No...

That duct interior led straight to the lab. Could the intruder’s real aim be a diversion?

Immediately, the security captain became vigilant. He commanded the other security officers: ”Go, continue tracking the location of that fence, I’m going to check the lab.”

He wanted to personally inspect the route to ensure there were no security risks during the normal product launch session, especially since the physical embodiment of the artificial intelligence was still in the lab.

Hmm?

Jiang Shu, standing at the end of the corridor, also abruptly halted.

Heading towards the lab?

The lab...

If he wasn’t mistaken, that might be where the artificial intelligence was located.

At that moment, Xiao Yi was frantically raising his hand.

Yi: Past the corner is another corridor. Destroy the cameras in these three spots with an electric shock, and the corridor beyond the corner will be unsupervised.

Yi: Then give me the Paperman Control Technique, the Spirit Technique, and the alloy fence. I will draw them away while you follow the security captain.

Yi: Lastly, turn on my flight mode. It will make escape easier later.

As he finished speaking, Xiao Yi gazed at Jiang Shu with bright, sparkling eyes.

With priorities clearly defined, Jiang Shu quickly made a decision. He activated Xiao Yi’s flight mode and handed over the two Derivative Entries and the alloy fence, instructing, ”Come quickly after you’re done. You don’t have a power bank, nor any harmful Derivative Entries, so don’t wander off.”

Xiao Yi immediately nodded, his face the picture of sincerity and honesty.

Yi: Three sentences, and little Jiang has activated my flight mode.

Then Jiang Shu looked back at the security captain, who was starting to walk in another direction. Biting his lip, Jiang Shu turned and followed, crossing paths with the other security officers.

The building of the White Eagle Company had a somewhat complicated structure, winding and twisting, as if it were designed to prevent strangers from getting a clear grasp of its layout. After following the security captain through several corridors, Jiang Shu came upon a covert elevator.

”Beep—” The security captain swiped his wristwatch, the elevator doors opened swiftly, and the security captain stepped in, pressing the floor number for the lab.

To reach the underground lab of the White Eagle Company, this was the only way, aside from the ventilation duct that hardly counted as an accessible route.
