Chapter 357: A Small Favor

“Hello? I’m Larson. Although it’s very rude to call at 4am, I believe Mr. Francis is still awake and waiting for my call.”

“…”

“I’m Francis, good evening, or good morning? My old friend!”

Larson nodded as if Francis was standing in front of him,

“This time, your luck is really good, so there is nothing much to say. The winner will definitely get what he deserves. But old friend, our enemies are also growing rapidly, and our progress can only guarantee to just not falling behind. You know what I mean?”

Francis said on the other end of the phone,

“So? You mean, let’s just forget about it? The losses on my side should just write them off?”

Larson was silent for a while and said,

“I hope that the revenge will be controlled within a certain range… and, in any case, this is internal fighting, internal friction!! I hope you can put the overall situation first.”

Francis said with a half-smile on the phone,

“Hehe, I just want to know one thing. When Delto was dismissed, did president tell Kit that he should put the overall situation first?”

Larson stopped talking and said after a while,

“The main research institute applied for a sample of 300 grams.”

Francis said,

“This is another matter. As the head of the special operations team, Delto successfully brought back top-secret information comparable to that obtained by the other 2 major companies, which proves that his decision at the time was correct. So, can the dismissal decision made by the company be taken back?”

Larson said,

“Yes.”

Francis said,

“Only when people are in their positions can they do their jobs. It is the responsibility of the Black Investigation Department to be responsible for meeting the needs of the main research institute. If Delto enters the Black Investigation Deparment, then meeting the needs of the main research institute is his responsibility.”

The muscles on Larson’s face twitched, and he said coldly,

“You don’t push me too hard.”

Francis smiled and said,

“Mr. President, in fact, I didn’t mean to ask for your consent, I was just telling you about it. Tomorrow — oh no, to be precise, it should be 7 hours later. At the board meeting, I will propose such a plan.”

Larson’s hand holding the phone receiver had already started to tremble slightly. Perhaps because of anger or perhaps because of a guilty conscience.

“I thought we are still friends, Cheney.”

Cheney was Francis’ Twitter name, usually for family members and old friends.

Francis smiled and said,

“That’s what I thought until you passed the decision that sent Delto to Mexico.. .. Do you remember what you replied? I’m having a hard time, Cheney, but it’s business.”

“In fact, I have always wanted to say this back to you. I thought I had no chance, but I didn’t expect the opportunity to come so soon.”

8 hours later,

Delto sat in a half-new Volvo flagship SUV, crossed his legs and lit a cigar leisurely.

He was successfully promoted by 1 rank, and he had become the deputy director of the core department, Edoria Investigation Department. His power was at least double that of before, and the resources he could mobilize were also amazing.

This Volvo flagship SUV parked at the entrance of the alley looked ordinary, but in fact, only the outer shell had been preserved. The interior, engine, tires, chassis, etc. had all been replaced. It could withstand a hit from the tank cannon and continue driving. The cost even exceeded 2 million dollars.

At this time, the accompanying subordinate Walker said cautiously,

“Boss, he’s back.”

Delto looked out the window. Fang Linyan put his hands in his coat’s pockets and came out of the alley whistling. He had a backpack. He looked just like the passersby in the area.

Then Fang Linyan got into the car, closed the door, threw the backpack to Walker, and said with a smile,

“Everything is okay.”

Walker nervously opened the backpack, and he immediately heard a patting sound coming from a large preservation box inside as if a live fish just out of the water was struggling in it! He opened a gap to take a look, and he immediately pressed the box firmly with both hands, then he hugged the bag tightly in his arms.

Fang Linyan looked at Delto, showed his white teeth and smiled,

“Told you that this channel is fine.”

Yes, in order to avoid anyone suspecting that he had Space, Fang Linyan had no choice but to say that the things he took out before were samples, and he hid them well, so he was not found during the body search.

After all, the turtle jellyfish slices and interstellar insecticide he took out before added up to less than 10 grams, so it was possible to ignore them during the body search.

But if Fang Linyan suddenly took out an alive tentacle that weighed 3kg and said that he hid it so well that it was not discovered, it would be an insult to the IQ of the entire company.

Therefore, he could only pretend that he handed over the “goods” to a private channel, then he went to pick them up.

Because the higher authorities attach great importance to the experimental material of turtle jellyfish—after all, this was something that even the Bloody Umbrella Company wanted but hadn’t got yet. Therefore, despite Fang Linyan’s strong refusal, Delto escorted him over in the end, but Fang Linyan asked him to wait at the entrance of the alley. This was his bottom line.

Seeing that everything went smoothly, Delto also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, after the experimental material was submitted, his new position was officially secured.

At this time, Delto asked his subordinate Walker to go to the car behind, then he pressed a button. A partition screen rose slowly, completely isolating the driver in front from the rear space. It completely filtered the sound. Then, Delto looked at Fang Linyan and said appreciatively,

“This time it’s thanks to you.”

Fang Linyan said,

“I was just lucky.”

Delto nodded and said,

“I intend to promote your position, but the company has regulations. If you want to be promoted again, then you must be one of our own.”

Fang Linyan knew very well that the so-called becoming “one of our own” was actually injecting the genetic drug developed by Duckland Company itself. In this way, his physical fitness would be greatly improved, but his life and death were in the hands of the Duckland Company.

However, as a contractor, he certainly didn’t care about the failsafe left by the Duckland Company, so he said,

“No problem, boss. Remember to choose an injection with the best effect for me.”

Delto laughed and said,

“Of course. After my current authority is upgraded, I can apply for Level A injection twice a year. Now I can directly connect to the intranet to apply for you, but I can’t do anything about the final injection effect. It depends on your own body.”

Fang Linyan nodded and said,

“Okay, besides that, I have one more small request from boss.”

Delto said,

“Oh? What’s the matter?”

Fang Linyan said with some embarrassment,

“I heard that the company seems to be developing a gene drug for lung cancer? And it has achieved a lot of results. I wonder if BOSS can get 2 for me?”

Delto thought that Fang Linyan would make some request, but after hearing it, it turned out that he wanted to poach the company, which was really no pity for him… since he didn’t have to take out the things in his own pocket. So, Delto agreed to such a request that did him a favor without a cost.

At the same time, he didn’t ask Fang Linyan why he needed the gene drug. In his thoughts, it was nothing more than selling it on the black market for a sky-high price.

This was of course an illegal operation, but as far as Delto’s power was concerned, it could be easily covered.

Soon, they returned to the Duckland Company’s building, and Delto’s application for a Level A genetic optimization drug was quickly approved.

After all, he was now a prominent figure in the company, a hot fried chicken. He was rumored to be very ruthless, so no one wanted to provoke him now.

TL: His cancer can finally be cured?
