“Okay, once I arrive in the UK and meet my family, I will hand over the mailbox containing the decoded files.” The Chinese man nodded readily, sat down, took off his shoes, and took out a flat, roughly one-inch square metal box from the top of his leather shoes, handing it to the foreign man.
There were three foreigners in the room. Two of them were burly with bushy hair, while the third man, whose age was unclear—whether he was fifty or forty—was very elegant and stood calmly to the side.
The burly foreign man who had spoken earlier took the metal box, carefully opened it, and examined it. Lin Yao noticed that there were two chips inside the metal box, but he didn't know what they were for.
"Oh no, someone has broken in." The remaining burly foreign man suddenly spoke up. "They've triggered the alarm on the outer wall. We have to leave immediately."
“Take this with you immediately.” The foreign man in the lead quickly closed the metal box and handed it to the still elegant man. He then turned to the Chinese man and said, “Tell us your email address right now, and then leave this room. Without evidence, the Chinese government cannot take action against you. We will come back to rescue you later.”
"no!"
The Chinese man immediately refused, his attitude very firm.
After a slight hesitation, as if he had made a great decision, he said, "You can double the reward and get my wife's email address. I've told her all this. If you don't have enough money, you won't get the decoding file. Unauthorized detection will cause the chip to self-destruct."
The foreign man in the lead stared coldly at the Chinese man, and after six seconds spoke, "Fine, leave the room immediately, use whatever excuse you want."
“Earl Witte, please escort the chip away immediately. We’ll meet again when we get back home.”
The elegant man nodded gracefully, took the metal box, opened the door, and then turned and rushed into the bathroom.
The Chinese man hurriedly left room 1701. This time, instead of taking the elevator, he went up to the sixteenth floor from the stairwell, used his room card to open room 1612, and hid inside.
"Yaoyao, are they going to hide the box in the toilet? That seems like it would be easy to spot, wouldn't it?"
Xiao Cao and Lin Yao were watching the show, completely oblivious to the whole affair. They only paid attention to it because Pei Yuan and Sun Miao were involved, and Lin Yao even postponed his plan to retaliate against the CEO of Luo Shen Company.
"I don't know. Foreigners shouldn't be that stupid. This is China. Where could they possibly hide?"
"No!" "Oh dear!"
Lin Yao and Xiao Cao exclaimed at the same time. A huge bat rushed out of the bathroom, flew from the door to the corridor, and then flew into the night sky from the window at the very top of the corridor closest to room 1701.
"The box is on the bat's back!" Little Grass exclaimed.
"Shoot it down!"

"oops!"
"I told you to run! I told you to run!"
"That worked, didn't it? Nothing I do ever fail to achieve!"
The sound of little grass kept echoing in my mind; she was happily calling out to herself.
Judging from these words, the large bat that flew out of the seventeenth-floor corridor window was quite special, causing Xiao Cao to miss her target at first, which made Lin Yao very curious.
As for Xiaocao referring to herself as "Grandma," Lin Yao was already immune to it. The things she learned from the internet were too varied, and Lin Yao was too lazy to say anything to Xiaocao. Unless she used a lot of foul language, Lin Yao would remind Xiaocao that it was very unladylike, and then Xiaocao would correct herself.
"Yaoyao, look at this stinky bat! Aren't I amazing?"
The sound of grass rang out, followed by a thud as something fell from the sky, landing half a meter in front of Lin Yao.
Judging from the sound, it must have been a terrible fall.
It must be said that street light bulbs costing several thousand or even tens of thousands of yuan are of very good quality, at least they are very bright.
Lin Yao saw a bat, about the size of a human face, lying on the ground, looking quite pitiful.
The bat's thin, fleshy wings are riddled with holes; its two wings look like two bare poles covered with tattered strips of cloth, with not a single intact piece to be found. These fleshy wings are what allow the bat to use air buoyancy.
The claws that grew on the wings had long lost the support of the "finger bones" and were essentially useless.
Even its two hind limbs, which were connected to its fleshy wings, had long been broken by the angry grass. It lay crawling on the ground, rolling around, and making a piercing, unpleasant screech, like the sound of an enamel basin filled with water being dragged on a cement floor, which made people's hearts tremble.
The two originally transparent triangular ears also suffered damage. Only the outline of the base of the left ear remained, and blood was flowing from the wound. The right ear was slightly better, with only a small part missing. The triangle had turned into a trapezoid, and there was no bleeding.
The bat's furry body was covered in blood. As it rolled on the road, it got covered in mud and dust, making it look terrible, like a beggar's chicken covered in mud.
Lin Yao stretched out his right hand and poked the bat's belly with his index finger. It felt soft and the fur was very smooth. If it weren't for the mud affecting the feel, it would probably feel as smooth as touching satin.
"This guy is too small. Otherwise, if we skinned him, he would be a very good piece of material, almost as good as a fur coat."
Lin Yao muttered to himself, and as soon as he finished speaking, the bats that had been thrashing about violently stopped screeching. They lay prostrate on the ground, trembling all over, their small eyes filled with extreme terror.
“Yaoyao, your opinion is not good. This stinky bat is not clean at all. I feel that there is a kind of toxin in its body, but I haven’t figured out what kind it is yet. Let’s take it back and study it.”
The little grass rang out, not treating the bat as a person at all, and decided its fate as a guinea pig with just one sentence.
"Poisonous? I feel like it's a legendary vampire. Only vampires can turn into humans and bats." Lin Yao communicated with the little grass with his mind, while his fingers continued to poke the poor bat.
"Hmm, it's hard to explain, so we need to study it slowly." Xiaocao's tone was very serious, like a most dedicated researcher. "Just now I used a poison gas that has a paralyzing effect on people to deal with it, but it didn't have any effect at all. I tried many things before I found out that it was afraid of the medicinal gas of 'Baiyun Dan'. I only used a little bit and it became sluggish."
"Oh?" Lin Yao was very surprised. "Is that so? It can transform, it can even turn into a human."
The little grass said disdainfully, "With me around, it can only be a stinky bat. Want to become human? No way! I haven't even become human yet!"
Lin Yao was a little shocked by Xiao Cao's words. He wondered what Xiao Cao would look like if she turned into a human. She must be very beautiful, right?
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, Lin Yao quickly stopped himself from thinking about it any further.
