Chapter 252: 130 Federal Secret Agent_2 Chapter 252: 130 Federal Secret Agent_2 Luckily, the suspended car had a self-driving system, so there was no accident on the road.

When she finally arrived at the nightclub, she saw…

The young man sitting at the bar drinking.

“Kill him.”

That was a raspy voice Hera heard.

It was also the only thought she had at the time.

Later, she clearly remembered herself constantly closing in on him, only to be suddenly embraced by the man, unable to make any move, her consciousness slipping away immediately.

The hissing sound by her ear vanished, and she felt as if she fell asleep from a dream, only to be brought back by a cold drink splashed on her.

Hera turned to look at the young man leisurely sipping his drink beside her. He wore glasses, had a scholarly look, a young face with defined features, and had a faint smile at the corners of his mouth throughout.

Then she looked at the fruit knife in the sofa not far away, with only the handle visible.

It wasn’t a dream just now.

She had suddenly lost control and almost killed this man.

Hera raised her hand to cover her head, pressing hard, seeming to want to squeeze out an answer this way.

Yang Ming turned his head to glance at her, speaking lightly, “To talk…”

“I’m very sorry that I almost hurt you just now.”

Hera’s voice was very calm,

“I cannot explain to you what happened just now temporarily, but I can offer some compensation. I need time to understand the anomaly occurring within me. It might be a disorder akin to sleepwalking.”

She let go of her hands, quickly smoothing her slightly curly medium-length hair, and turned to look at Yang Ming.

“How much financial compensation do you need? I can only offer you these useless things.”

“That…”

“One million, is that enough?”

Hera reached to touch her network terminal, only to realize she wasn’t wearing the pendant.

She murmured, “I can’t pay right now. If it’s convenient, could you give me your contact information? I’ll reach out to you tonight.”

Yang Ming finally interjected, “Let’s talk somewhere else.”

Hera nodded immediately, “Alright.”

He stood up to leave, but then remembered something, taking off his outer shirt and tossing it to Hera.

“Cover up.”

Hera glanced down, nodded indifferently, and pulled the shirt around her front.

She wasn’t wearing underwear.

The fruit knife lay in the sofa, unnoticed for a long time.

…

About ten minutes later.

Hera’s two-seat suspended car was moving along the bustling road.

Yang Ming was sitting in the passenger seat, staring at the petite girl beside him.

In the car, Hera found a cigarette-like electronic pick-me-up, holding it to her mouth while constantly fidgeting with her hair.

She seemed a bit anxious but showed little emotion on her face.

Yang Ming figured that, as the victim here, he ought to say something.

“You tried to attack me earlier?”

“Hmm,” Hera’s voice was still calm, “I drove for an hour to reach your location, which sounds rather absurd. I don’t even know what happened, but I seemed to have been ordered to kill you.”

“Order?”

“Yes, an order.”

Hera took a deep breath,

“I heard some noise, and then lost control.

“I know it’s hard for you to accept this, it seems absurd to you, but my primary focus is bioinformatics.

“The human nervous system can also be invaded, just like the most logically perfect computer program can’t avoid bugs.

“This is the subject I’ve recently been working on. I suspect there might have been a problem in some step of my experiment.

“When I recall details just now, I find many suspicious points, like how I determined your location over a 200 kilometers distance; how was this information transmitted to my brain? And why did my brain obey the other party?”

Yang Ming curiously asked, “Have you come into contact with any strange creatures?”

“No.”

Hera said, then added, “Not in my memory.”

“Oh, why emphasize ‘memory’?”

“I have a memory gap of three to six months.”

Hera turned to Yang Ming, frowning,

“Although I now feel guilt and remorse towards you, you can’t keep asking me such private questions. When I get home, I’ll immediately give you one million New Federation Coins, and we’ll pretend this never happened, alright? I need you to keep this secret.”

Yang Ming smiled, “Well, that’s another price.”

Hera’s fingers hovered over the one-button emergency call, asking softly, “Are you trying to blackmail me?”

“Well, it was a joke.”

Yang Ming gestured with his hands,

“Don’t you find yourself a bit odd? You’re acting calmer than I am.”

“Panic and fear are the most impotent emotions in humans.”

Hera spoke softly,

“This million isn’t given to you for free; you have to help me figure out the cause of this matter. Since someone tried to use me to kill you through control, they should still be targeting you.

“I need to know who is trying to make me a murderer.”

Yang Ming frowned, “You want to use me?”

Hera said calmly, “Why else would I offer such an outrageous sum of a million? Are your funds blown by the wind?”

Yang Ming tapped his glasses, “Has anyone ever told you that you’re weird?”

“My colleagues call me ‘Lizard Woman’ behind my back.”

“Lizard?”

“Cold-blooded creature, that’s what it means.”

Hera gripped the steering wheel and abruptly stepped on the accelerator, urging this suspended car to move faster.

On Yang Ming’s glasses, Lyu provided line after line of information, all related to Hera.
