"Stop! Stop quickly!"
After a moment of blankness, Ling Chen finally reacted, hurriedly shouting for the driver to stop the car at once.
As soon as the car pulled over to the roadside, not even coming to a complete halt, Ling Chen impatiently pushed open the door and dashed towards the road. Before Nanrong Wanqing could catch up with Ling Chen's footsteps, he had already flagged down a taxi and was swiftly heading to the research base.
Sitting in the taxi, Ling Chen took out his phone, found Hu Fei's number, and dialed it. However, the other end of the line informed him that the user had their phone off. Unable to reach Hu Fei, Ling Chen continued dialing Tang Guolun, Kaelina, and Qiu Yong's numbers one after another. But without exception, every phone indicated it was turned off.
Listening to the busy signal from his phone, Ling Chen sat dazed in the backseat, his Mo Che-like pupils devoid of any brightness, his face showing a hint of pallor.
