Chapter 847: Chapter 830: Collective Amnesia Technique_2

It was Guan Lili, who had been sneakily playing with her phone during the meeting, who eventually discovered the anomaly.

After an intensive search, she stumbled upon a horrifying phenomenon—almost no online discussions could be found about Kolo Film Industry fostering criminals. Somehow the focus had shifted to discussions about the new cybernetic body implanted in the founder’s physique.

The full live broadcast could no longer be found, leaving behind only the final scene where the founder’s neck split open, resembling a scene from Transformers.

This indeed looked like the handiwork of a corporate maneuver, but Guan Lili was well aware that Kolo Film Industry didn’t have the capacity to pull this off. They could suppress most videos on mainstream websites, but the dark web was beyond their reach, where not only independent hackers roamed, but also factions that opposed them.

At least Hog Foster, known for their pettiness and past conflicts with them, would have relished seeing this scandal blow up, eventually giving them an excuse to step in for a legitimate investigation.

Now, not only had the source of the video vanished, but even related comments were nowhere to be found.

No traces were left anywhere, including the dark web.

"We still have other work to do."

The founder brought Guan Lili back to reality, sharing an electronic document to everyone’s phones, a detailed "Proof of Crime" showcasing how Monica’s father had, over the years, colluded with criminals using his position and embezzled substantial company funds.

Ultimately, upon exposure, he devised a plan of deception, faking his own death to fool everyone, and fled with the embezzled money to start a new life elsewhere.

The legal department’s chief was amazed at the detailed nature of the evidence, which was completely sufficient for prosecution in court, confirming all of Monica’s father’s charges.

Even if a trial were to start right now, with this evidence at hand, he was confident in sending Monica’s father to face the firing squad.

This did not look like something hastily put together overnight but rather a trap that had been meticulously prepared for a long time.

But...

Everyone knew that the man was already dead.

The Law Enforcers had found his biological tissue in the wreckage of the exploded car.

Moreover, the scheme proposed by Mikaela was also a matter of fact.

In addition, it proved how Black Hand had established a killer organization, exploiting those who had suffered misfortune in criminal cases, brainwashing them to believe that every unrelated crime was orchestrated by Kolo Film Industry, turning them against the company as their enemy.

Exploiting hate, inciting hate, to achieve wicked ends—the true fury should be directed at those who manipulate goodness and justice from the shadows.

Everyone present could read the intended purpose of this evidence.

The founder broke the silence, "What do you think, is this evidence enough?"

"At this crucial juncture, trying to convince the public might be difficult."

"Convince the public?"

The founder shook his head, "I have no intention of convincing those unrelated people. I’m asking if this evidence is sufficient for Monica, a girl with a strong sense of justice."

For a moment, the meeting room fell silent.

People exchanged looks.

They wondered if they were the ones losing their minds or if the founder hadn’t fully recovered from his illness—how could they expect an orphan who held a grudge against the company to believe in the company-provided evidence and to believe that her father had not died for a just cause but had instead fallen from a hero to a cowardly fugitive?

"Come on, give me some reaction. You’re the best in this industry; to perfect this story, what more do we need to do?"

The response to the founder was still silence.

This made his passion subside, replaced by evident disappointment. While doubting the business skills of the company’s management, the founder had to continue the matter on his own. He unveiled the answer, saying, "We need her father, oh, and her mother too."

..................

Meanwhile, somewhere in District Four.

Searing pain jolted Monica awake from her sleep; the emergency spray was not enough to quickly heal the wound in her abdomen. She tried calling for Gustav but got no response.

She guessed that after everything that had transpired last night, Gustav must have gone out.

The only consolation was that the founder of Kolo Film Industry was dead.

She saw the detonation of the Miniature Tactical Nuclear Bomb before leaving the scene, a harsh explosion that reduced both him and his billion-watt mansion to dust.

However, she had become the United Government’s top terrorist, and it seemed that Qi He’s plan was doomed to fail.

When Monica’s gaze shifted to the bloody rabbit mask laid on the table, her eyes hardened, and the pain in her abdomen and palms seemed less torturous.

A ringtone interrupted her reverie.

The screen displayed a string of encrypted gibberish.

Perhaps it was Qi He reminding her to stay away from the troubled area of District Four.

She answered the call, "Hello?"

The next moment, her expression froze on her face.

The voice coming from the other end of the phone was extremely familiar; it had often appeared in her dreams over the past decade or so.

Only this time, the burning sensation throughout her body let Monica know that she wasn’t dreaming; the familiar voice was now a part of her reality.

She still remembered the last time she met her father, he had asked her to wait for him at the coffee shop opposite the company.

She obediently stayed in the coffee shop, only to end up hearing the terrible news of her father’s death from a car bomb.

"I saw what you did."

Monica couldn’t tell if it was a prank at first, since with today’s technology, it’s completely possible to imitate someone’s voice, so she tried to control her breathing and remained silent.

"Your current situation is very dangerous, we must meet at once."

"Time, place."

Monica said coldly, becoming somewhat angry once she had calmed down.

No matter who the other party was or what their purpose, she couldn’t let them continue like this.

"Now, I will be waiting for you at the coffee shop opposite Kolo Film Industry, the same old place."

...

District Four, villa district.

"It’s fine, she’s invited by me, let her in."

Catherine instructed through the intercom.

She noticed that familiar figure, the corners of her mouth slightly lifting; she stayed on site without leaving because she knew her student would definitely come.

Driven by a strong curiosity and a determination for the truth, Lu Xiang would be led here, all the more so after Catherine had received a rather interesting message not long ago.

Once Lu Xiang entered, she asked, "Where’s Song Lan? Why didn’t he come?"

"He’s a civilian, not suited for places like this."

"Is that so?"

Catherine smiled, not pressing further.

They were standing amidst the wreckage left by the explosion of the Miniature Tactical Nuclear Bomb; luxury items were turned to ashes, leaving behind only a deep crater.

"I heard you came from the Eden Hotel."

"Teacher, it seems I can’t hide anything from your eyes."

Lu Xiang replied smoothly. When Qi He, covered in blood, knocked on her door, and after Song Lan had received a text message from Guan Lili, she decided to come to the explosion site to take a look, intuiting that there could be some unnoticed details left behind.

"Have you heard about something then?"

"Teacher, please speak your mind."

"The executives of Kolo Film Industry held a meeting, organized by their founder himself."

"I heard about it."

"Do you remember what I taught in the lesson about crime scene investigation and alibis, that suspects often use clever tricks to confuse the senses and fabricate proof they weren’t present?"

Lu Xiang neither confirmed nor denied.

She had also been fascinated by the process of unraveling cases to get to the truth when she was in school.

And now Catherine in front of her felt like taking her back to her student days as the "lecturer" on stage said, "A new puzzle has emerged."

Catherine looked around, observing the bare ground.

—"We extracted a large amount of human tissue at the scene, some of which belonged to the founder of Kolo Film Industry, as you see. He’s here with us now, scattered all over."

Investigations showed that neither the founder nor his strange bionic body escaped the explosion.

"So, Lu Xiang, what do you think about his ability to be in two places at the same time?"
