"I didn't think it was an alien egg." Luo Fan sighed lightly, and finally took his eyes off the display screen of the smart computer and cast his eyes on the small box on the table. The lid was now open, and the black egg was lying there quietly, with a mysterious sheen on the shell.

Luo Fan had just checked the memory chip left by the dead gardener and found that the card contained a large amount of information. Although he didn't have time to read them all, he just skimmed through them cursorely, and Luo Fan couldn't help but be shocked, because the information on the card didn't belong to the existing technology of the earth at all!

Where did the "gardener" get this chip?

However, investigating the truth is not a top priority, but it is the egg of this Beechstar creature that Luo Fan needs to solve first.

Yes, according to the chip, the egg came from a distant planet called Beechcraft. Luo Fan had also learned a lot about extraterrestrial creatures before, but after thinking about it, he couldn't remember hearing of this name, as if this was a strange planet that humans had not yet set foot in.

According to the records, life on Beechcraft is oviparous, but their survival rate after hatching is very low, so the number of this race is very rare, and it is difficult to see this creature in the universe. This has also led to the fact that life on other planets knows very little about Biech Star, and even many planets are not aware of the existence of Biech Star and Beach Life at all.

In order not to let their civilization be cut off due to the problem of low reproduction rate, Beechcraft's life evolved through endless years, and finally completed a great evolution, so that they suddenly had the ability to become a powerful race in the universe. However, before these Beechcraft lives could emerge in the universe, they disappeared due to a terrible disaster, which can also be regarded as a creation in the dark. Although this creation is an alien, it still makes Luo Fan sigh when he reads this.

As for what kind of abilities the Beechcraft creature has, and whether there are any taboos for treating this creature as a pet, the chip is not introduced at all. But if you think about it a little, you can see that since it is something that the "gardener" is bound to get at the risk of his life, of course, it can't be a worthless mainland product. Unfortunately, the information is vague, and the only way to know the exact answer is to try it yourself.

"Looks like we can only try." Luo Fan sighed secretly.

Although there are still some doubts, Luo Fan does not have many options at the moment. The "gardener" was mortally wounded before meeting him, and he did not disclose who did it, and he did not have time to ask about the murder of his adoptive father. But Luo Fan estimated that most of the "gardener" died because of this egg and that chip, and from the analysis of the gardener's words, the death of his adoptive father was probably related to this egg.

And now, the two hot things like Beechcraft Egg and Chip are all in their own hands. If you don't find out this secret, then you are likely to be killed in the end without knowing it, which is not the ending that Luo Fan hopes to appear.

"We can only hatch this egg first." Luo Fan stared at the beech egg in front of him, and secretly decided in his heart. As if sensing his mind, the faintly shiny egg body seemed to become a little brighter.

Could this egg sense my thoughts? Luo Fan thought in disbelief. Although he couldn't believe it, Luo Fan's heart couldn't help but look forward to what was about to hatch.

……

188th floor, Tianxiang Building.

This is the top floor of Tianxiang Building, and it is also the office of Shi Qianjun, president of Tianxiang Group. At this moment, his subordinate Meng Qingyun stood in front of the door of this ordinary-looking office, and knocked on the door with anxiety.

"Come in." A young man's voice came from the office.

Pushing open the office door, Meng Qingyun walked in with stiff steps.

In front of the large floor-to-ceiling windows, a mild-mannered young man stood quietly, looking down at the city beneath his feet with an indifferent expression. He is the president of Tianxiang Group - Shi Qianjun.

"Did you find it?" Shi Qianjun didn't look back, and his voice was still calm, but Meng Qingyun felt a strong sense of oppression, as if what was in front of him was not a man of the same height as himself, but a tall, majestic mountain.

Beads of sweat appeared on Meng Qingyun's forehead: "The subordinates are incompetent, and they haven't found any clues." Meng Qingyun lowered his head and replied in a low voice. His heart was pounding, and he didn't know what kind of punishment he would receive for this defeat.

To Meng Qingyun's surprise, Shi Qianjun was not angry, he turned around and looked at his subordinates, and the whole person fell into deep thought. Meng Qingyun didn't dare to raise his head, nor did he dare to move his steps, so he could only stand motionless.

A few minutes later, just when Meng Qingyun's legs began to tremble with nervousness, Shi Qianjun finally spoke, his voice was still flat, as if nothing had happened: "You go down, the investigation of this matter ends here." From now on, you will be fully committed to the second step of the plan, and you must not let this change affect the implementation of our entire plan. ”

Meng Qingyun raised his head and asked hesitantly, "But, what if 'over there' knows that this thing has fallen into someone else's hands......

Shi Qianjun's face sank: "You don't have to worry about this, I'll deal with it over there, you just need to do your own thing." But," he said, with a hint of murderous intent in his tone, "if you make a mistake next time, you know the consequences." ”

"Yes!" Meng Qingyun's body trembled, and he hurriedly replied in a trembling voice, "My subordinates understand." Your subordinates will do their best to complete the task and will never let you down again! ”

"Well, go ahead." Shi Qianjun nodded and waved his hand to signal Meng Qingyun to retreat.

When the office door closed again, Shi Qianjun's face became completely gloomy. After hesitating for a moment, he turned on the communicator on his wrist, and a low and hoarse voice came from inside: "Mr. Shi, why did you think of me today?" Looks like you have a business to take care of? ”

"Yes, there is a business, and it's a big business." Shi Qianjun's tone still sounded faint at first glance, but if you listened carefully, you could find that his voice contained a trace of imperceptible murderous aura.

"Oh? What can make Mr. Shi a big business must be a great deal. I'm really interested. There was a hint of curiosity in the other party's tone.

Shi Qianjun smiled slightly: "Then we still meet in the old place?" ”

"Good. When is Mr. Shi free? ”

"I'm free right now."

The other party smiled lowly: "So anxious, it seems that this business is really not small." How about meeting in half an hour? ”

"Okay, that's half an hour. We'll see you later. ”

cut off the call, and the smile on Shi Qianjun's face quickly disappeared. After a moment of silence, he connected to another number. Facing the communicator, he only said lightly: "Inform Shadow to hurry up, there will be work soon." ”

……

Standing at the table, Luo Fan cut the index finger of his right hand and squeezed out a few drops of blood. Then he picked up the beech egg in his left hand, stretched out the index finger of his right hand, and quickly drew a series of retro patterns on the eggshell with his own blood. When the last stroke was over, Luo Fan gently put the egg back on the table, then put his hands on his chest and began to wait quietly.

Something strange happened before Luo Fan's eyes: the mysterious lines drawn by the blood penetrated into the eggshell at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon disappeared completely.

Luo Fan's eyelids jumped slightly, and the gaze cast at Biqi Dan became even more solemn.

And then

Ten minutes passed.

Twenty minutes passed.

Thirty minutes......

An hour......

Three hours......

At last

Luo Fan went to sleep...... I'll talk about it tomorrow.

Probably failed, right? I actually tossed for a long time for a broken egg that I couldn't eat, what a mistake!

This was Luo Fan's last thought before falling asleep.

……

"Mr. Shi, everyone is an acquaintance, polite words are exempt, let's get straight to the point." The wide black robe covered the speaker's figure, but as soon as he heard the low and hoarse voice, he knew that the black-robed man wearing a hideous metal mask was the one who had spoken to Shi Qianjun before.

Shi Qianjun squinted slightly at the black-robed man in front of him, he was a little curious about the true identity hidden behind the mask. He also ordered his subordinates to investigate in many ways, but even with the strong strength of Tianxiang Group, it was still impossible to find out the details of the other party.

It stands to reason that it is very dangerous to cooperate with someone who does not know the details, because this kind of cooperation is full of too many variables, but this person in front of you is different. Although the true identity of the black-robed man is a mystery, this person's name has an extremely high status in the global dark realm. Because, since his debut, there has been no commission that the black-robed man can't complete. In the Dark World, people call him the "Puzzle Solver", and he is one of the four major killers of the Dark World, along with the other three people such as the "One-Armed Man". No matter how complicated the situation, no matter how difficult the problem is, as long as it is handed over to the "puzzle solver", it will definitely be solved. Therefore, despite the high fees of the "puzzle solver", there are still customers. After all, there are many rich people, but there are very few people who are really capable of solving problems.

"The commission fee this time is 100 million." After thinking about it for a while, Shi Qianjun slowly spoke.

Behind the mask, a hoarse voice let out a burst of ugly laughter: "With such a big deal, it seems that Mr. Shi is in a lot of trouble." Let's start with it, what is the content of the commission? ”

"Find something for me."

"Looking for what?"

"An egg, though, it may have been hatched by now."

"Eggs?" The other party's slightly raised voice revealed the surprise in his heart, "What egg can be worth 100 million?" It seems that this egg must be very special, it should be more than just delicious. ”

"This egg is from Beechstar." Shi Qianjun only said this sentence and did not continue to explain. If it was an ordinary earthling, he would not understand what he was talking about, but he believed that the other party must understand the meaning of his words.

"Beechstar's egg? Could it be that ......" As expected, the other party's voice was obviously trembling. Since he is known as a puzzle solver, he must know more things than others, so he will naturally understand what this means.

After a little thought, the "puzzle solver" understood how much risk was involved in this commission. This Beechstar egg will definitely attract the absolute attention of any big force, and with the strong ability of the Tianxiang Group, it is impossible to be negligent enough to leak such important information. This egg will be lost, and it has not been found so far, so that Shi Qianjun has to take a huge risk to entrust himself, an outsider, to make a move, which means that there are already other or even many huge forces involved.

Glancing at the closed door seemingly casually, the "puzzle solver" could clearly feel the intense killing intent coming from outside the door. Although the expression on his face remained unchanged, the "puzzle solver" understood in his heart that the other party was deliberately reminding himself that he could only accept this commission and had no other choice.

As for whether Tianxiang Group will kill itself afterwards, that is the next step to consider. As the only one of the four killers who does not win by force, it is not a wise choice to face the other party. Although there is no shortage of means to save lives, the "puzzle solver" will naturally not do such a foolish act as a last resort that harms others and is not beneficial to himself.

From the time of his debut, the "puzzle solver" understood a truth: only by living can there be a future.

"I accept this commission, send all the information to my mailbox." "Puzzle solver" said calmly.

"Okay." Shi Qianjun smiled slightly, not surprised by the other party's answer, "Then I will wait for good news." ”
