Chapter 582: Not so crazy Sally strikes again

Work was steady as always, so Chi Lian paid a visit to the technology floor. The entire set up of this floor had been changed and it now looked like one big monitoring room. If one of the triplets or Ringo passed by they would be quite taken back because it resembled an intelligence department. there were many screens each with live footage of a target. The Yan family house, the palace, all the members of the royal family, the club sinner, her own children, the cold town, each screen had someone monitoring and taking notes if something of importance happened.

Piggy was here today, monitoring and taking charge in place of Squirrel. They took turns monitoring the surveillance teams, somedays it would be old tiger, other days squirrel and others Piggy.

Even the surveillance teams worked in shifts because the work was quite exhausting on the eyes. She was beginning to think that maybe this was why the system gave her that special eye medicine.

"Boss, have you finally come down here to see us?" Piggy came close and asked her. "I was starting to believe that you had forgotten all about us."

"As if I could," she answered. "This is the heart of our phoenix empire right here."

With a smile since the boss said our not my phoenix, piggy pulled out one of the chairs at a desk that was currently empty for her to sit.

"Boss, what you brings you here today?" he asked as she sat down.

"I wanted to see how much progress you had made." she replied. "What’s the latest?"

"The crown princess has one of the crown prince’s maids in league with her. You know that new zombie drug, the maid put it in his food last night but someone from our side intercepted before the crown prince could eat it. That’s why I asked Squirrel to bring up the issue of the drug with you. This will not be the first or last attempt, I think they will keep trying. In a way, if they can control him with the drug, they would not need to kill him. I don’t know if they have changed tactics on their end." he scratched his head as he explained, looking every bit puzzled.

Could the plan have changed indeed? she asked herself. He was very right, they would not give up and if all attempts failed, they could kill him off faster than they originally planned.

"What was done with the food which was meant for the crown prince?"

"Poured out of course, but it was not disposed off from the palace, we brought it back and had it analyzed. Do you want to see a list of components?" he replied. "Hey chilli, bring that analysis document over."

"Chilli!" she mumbled and her eyes moved in the same direction as piggy’s, wanting to see the one called chilli. "Isn’t that ground mole?" she asked aloud after seeing who it was.

"He changed his name, apparently he is running hot these days, whatever that means." He handed her paper with a break down of the components in the zombie drug and while she studied it, he continued talking, "I don’t know who is cooking this thing but they should be arrested, this is murder, they are simply murdering people. They combined morphine, methamphetamine, ketamine and other things in small doses as if they are experimenting. I don’t know what they are thinking, these components in this are different from the sample monkey snuck out from the club."

"They are tailoring the drug to match the needs." a new voice joined the conversation.

The voice of a woman, one she did not quite expect to see here.

"Sally!" Chi Lian said in surprise. The woman was dressed professionally in a black suit, her hair was tied up in a pony tail and she wore a pair of short black heels. She looked like an office worker, not just an ordinary worker but one in a managerial position.

"Hello boss lady." Sally comfortably slid closer and leaned against the desk Chi Lian was currently occupying. "Sally works here now."

Chi Lian looked up at piggy with her eyes saying, explain.

"She has a keen eye, it was her that caught the maid slipping the drug into the crown prince’s food. It was done so smoothly that all of us missed it. If it was not for her, all of our efforts to protect him would have been for nothing." Piggy explained. "Old tiger recruited her because she cornered him and playfully guessed what we all do on this floor. She broke it down so effortlessly, identifying us even after we changed our faces and wore masks."

Chi Lian did not need the full explanation about how good Sally’s skills were because she had personally experienced them.

"So, how did you know Sally, that something was off with the maid?"

"There is an upcoming luxury shoe company in the kingdom of Australia by the name of Messoni, a pair of shoes from there costs between six thousand to ridiculous fees of two hundred fifty thousand dollars. Imagine my surprise when I saw a palace maid wearing a genuine pair of Messoni shoes, one that costs precisely twenty two thousand dollars. Why would you be a maid if you can afford a twenty two thousand dollar pair of shoes? I have been keeping a close eye on her since then."

Sally was impressive indeed, she mentioned a brand that even Chi Lian had never heard of.

"I was confused as well when she explained it boss." piggy said, "I don’t know anything about womens shoes."

Chi Lian would not be admitting that neither did she, because all she knew were combat boots and shoes from the system mall. How much research did Sally put into fashion and luxury brands to know all this?

"Good job Sally," she told the woman, "Now what were you saying about the drugs being tailored to suit specific needs?"

Sally crossed her arms across her chest and answered with a very serious expression on her face. "Boss lady, you know the kind of business I used to be in right? When it comes to alcohol, there can be similarities with drugs at times. Some people only take one sip and they end up wasted, there are those who have take one bottle or five to achieve this. Some people are allergic to certain kinds of alcohol, I have seen all these cases. It could be the same here, a certain drug will achieve a specific purpose if its used by a specific person. Maybe this is what they are trying to accomplish with the drugs."

Designing a drug that suited a specific person was a wild theory but it could join the others on the board. No idea was too small to be dismissed.

"I think, we should turn things around perhaps, rather than worrying about the crown prince accidentally eating those meals, we could divert the drugged food to the crown princess, let her eat what she is dishing." Chi Lian suggested.

"Ouuh, devious, Sally likes it."

"It’s simple and effective." Chi Lian too smiled proudly. "It’s brilliant, right?"

"Very brilliant boss." Sally praised her immediately.

"Excellent boss." Piggy added.

"Is there anything else you have to report?" she asked Piggy.

"Nothing much else, everything else is in the daily reports which we send you."

T4 would update her on everything else that she needed to know.

She was returning to her office when she received a call from Qin Meng.

"President Qin, to what do I owe the pleasure of this phone call today?"

"I have some very antsy celebrities over here that want an invite to Wu Liang’s big bash. Little sister, aren’t you discriminating too much by inviting guests from the houses of others and not my own?"

So, the news of Wu Liang’s luxurious all white celebrity party had made the rounds already. What a good thing.
