The operation process was not long. It took an hour from anesthesia to implantation to suturing all in one go.
As they used local anesthesia, Zhang Heng stayed awake from beginning to end.
In the end, Zhang Heng was finally released from the ropes binding his hands and feet. In the next second, he squealed while crawling on the ground like a dying dog.
"Ah, who are you and what were you doing just now? What did you do to my neck!"
Zhang Heng screamed and moved toward the corner of the wall. After a long period of being bound, his hands and feet had fallen asleep, and he could only crawl on the ground.
"Shut up."
Chen Chen spoke lightly and at the same time, Cheng Cao brought out a chair from behind Chen Chen. Chen Chen smoothly sat down in front of Zhang Heng.
Following Chen Chen's order, Zhang Heng's screams stopped suddenly and he was horrified to realize that his voice had suddenly become silent.
It was as if something was stuck in his throat and his vocal cords did not belong to him at all. In short, after the man in front of him said the words "shut up", he had lost the ability to speak!
This development horrified him even further, but he could only stare at the group of fiendish men in front of him.
"Have you calmed down? When you have, shut up and listen to me."
Chen Chen leaned on the seat and raised his hands."I know you're curious to know who we are and why we kidnapped you, so I'll make a long story short — I'm Chen Shan's cousin. The one million that you swindled from her was a gift from me. Do you understand now?"
Hearing this, Zhang Heng curled up in the corner and nodded falteringly.
"Now, let me explain what I just did."
Chen Chen continued."You can try to touch it. Don't worry, now the effect of the anesthetic hasn't subsided, so you can't feel the pain. You can try touching it."
Hearing this, Zhang Heng reached out with his shaking hands and touched the back of his neck.
Suddenly, he felt a stitched wound.
"Do you feel it?"
A smile curled up at the corners of Chen Chen's mouth."We cut your neck open and installed a chip in the wound, a chip that integrates positioning, manipulation, and self-destruction. You'll do whatever I want you to do. If I tell you to shut up, you'll shut up. If I make you act as a dog, you must crawl on the ground all your life!"
When Chen Chen was talking about this, Zhang Heng could not help but open his mouth wide while shaking his head desperately, even ignoring the possibility of splitting open the wound on the back of his neck.
"Of course, I have better things to do."
Chen Chen grinned and revealed a mouthful of white teeth."You can try to remove this chip by yourself, but I can guarantee that when you get this idea, the chip will give you a warning. If you don't listen to its dissuasion, the chip will control your body, for instance —"
At this, Zhang Heng's eyes widened with irrepressible panic because he suddenly stood up without warning and at the same time, gently bent at the waist to bow toward the youth in front of him.
However, throughout all this, he could guarantee that he had no thought or inclination to perform this action!
Not only that, since he was tied up until now, his hands and feet had been paralyzed. He could not stand up even if he wanted to. However, now, his body seemed to have a mind of its own, able to perform actions beyond his own control?
Subconsciously, Zhang Heng wanted to regain control of his body, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not do it. He seemed to be trapped in this body and he could just about twitch his facial muscles only...
"Isn't it fun?"
Chen Chen continued to state, "At the same time, the chip will send us a message to let us know when you are making a dangerous move, and then someone will visit you in the next moment... Of course, you can continue to think of ideas such as, tell the police that there's a foreign body implanted in your spine, ask the police to help you take it out, and even find a shielding device to shield the signal source in the room..."
When talking about this, Chen Chen suddenly opened his hands and made an explosive gesture."But then, the AI in the chip will immediately go BOOM to prevent being exposed!"
Zhang Heng jumped in fright when he heard this.
"The chip will automatically self-destruct."
Chen Chen pointed to the back of his neck."I believe you should know what happens when you throw firecrackers into an ink bottle, right?
"An ink bottle that won't shatter even if you throw it to the ground or smash it, yet if you put a tiny firecracker inside and then close the lid, the ink bottle will be reduced to smithereens...
"Likewise, your neck, like an ink bottle, will explode directly at the cervical spine."
At this point, Chen Chen snapped his fingers.
Immediately, Zhang Heng only felt his body lighten. In the next second, he collapsed to the ground. He found that his control over his body had returned...
"I believe that life can still be beautiful."
Chen Chen got up from the chair and walked directly in front of Zhang Heng, staring at him from above."Actually, for garbage like you, a God chip is more valuable than your life. Putting this chip in your neck is a waste. It's a pity that my cousin isn't a good judge of people and she fell for you."
"Sor, sorry!"
Zhang Heng knelt and kowtowed to Chen Chen vigorously."Please forgive me, I'll surely treat Chen Shan well and I'll return the money to her! Forgive me!"
While begging for mercy, he banged his forehead against the floor, looking very miserable and pitiful.
"It's not impossible for me to spare you."
Chen Chen turned around and paced silently in the room."But obviously, you don't know who I am."
"Who you are?"
Zhang Heng looked at Chen Chen blankly, then shook his head, and smiled ingratiatingly."Chen Shan never told me, but you must be a big man..."
"Heard of Blacklight Biotechnology?"
Chen Chen retorted curtly.
"Ah!"
As if recalling something, Zhang Heng suddenly widened his eyes and raised his head in disbelief."I remember now, you are... You're the Chinese boss of the company involved in the age-reversal treatment and the V. 1 project!"
"That's right."
Chen Chen replied, "Surely you should understand now, one million is nothing to me. If you want, I can give you another 10 million. My only requirement is that you treat your wife and child well."
"Yes, definitely! Certainly!"
Hearing these words, Zhang Heng immediately panted heavily. At the same time, he was excited, with a tinge of remorse. After all, if he had known that Chen Shan and the big boss of Blacklight Biotechnology were relatives, how could he have done such a stupid thing?
"It's easy to promise, but it's not easy to do it."
In response to the other man's sincere attitude, Chen Chen was not moved at all. Instead, he moved forward and stepped on Zhang Heng's right fingers.
"Ouch, it hurts..."
Zhang Heng yelled at once, but he realized that Chen Chen's foot was applying more and more pressure!
Zhang Heng could not help screaming and then there was a sharp snap. Three of his fingers were completely crushed by the youth in front of him!
"Agh ah ah agh —!"
Suddenly, Zhang Heng's face went pale with agony and big beads of sweat rolled down. He could only grip his wrist, rolling on the ground and curling up in pain...
"This is just a moderate warning."
Only then did Chen Chen slowly move his foot and say, "The chip will watch you. From now on, if you snap at Chen Shan once, I'll send someone to step on one of your fingers. Flirt with another woman once, and that'll be two fingers. If you cheat... I'll kill your entire family!"
Speaking of this, Chen Chen immediately added."Of course, when I say your entire family, it doesn't include Chen Shan and the child in her womb. I'm referring to your entire family, understand?"
"Yes, yes!"
At this time, Zhang Heng was already in pain and was about to go into shock. He could only withstand the severe pain and nod his head.
Chen Chen looked satisfied at this. Then, he smiled and lifted Zhang Heng while also straightening the man's messy clothes and patting him on the shoulder. Chen Chen said warmly, "That's more like it. From now on, we're relatives! Is there anything that we can't sit down and talk about as relatives? You see, isn't this a perfect solution?"
Zhang Heng had to force a smile and nod his head again and again.
"Well, now that this matter has been resolved, you may leave."
Chen Chen nodded toward Cheng Cao."Cao, help me send my cousin-in-law home and reunite their family."
"Yes."
Cheng Cao nodded and then led Zhang Heng away.
At this point, Chen Chen walked out of the room, looked at the moonlight illuminating the sky, and then said aloud, "Is it about time you show yourself after listening for so long, Chief Investigator Zhou Hao?"
As Chen Chen spoke, there was a sudden rustling noise on the roof behind him and it seemed that someone was running into the distance.
"Catch him alive."
Chen Chen did not move at all. He directly gave an order. Then, the two slack-faced men next to him immediately turned around, faced the direction of the house, squatted slightly, and leaped up furiously at the same time!
In the next second, the two had jumped more than three meters high at the same time, and they reached the roof in one jump!
Under the moonlight, the two of them were like black panthers in human form, flying fast among the roofs of a cluster of rural houses. Even the ten-meter gap between houses was crossed over in a single leap!
At this time, the one fleeing in panic was none other than the FBI investigator Zhou Hao who had previously claimed he would investigate everything. He ran on the roof of a farmhouse like a parkour member and took out his mobile phone to press the Emergency call button.
"Hello, this is the Handu branch of the FBI. What can I do for you?"
"I'm Zhou Hao. Send someone right now to Mangmu Village on the outskirts of the city. I'm being chased by criminals now!"
Zhou Hao shouted.
"Okay! Brother Zhou, hold on, I'll inform the leader right away!"
On the other end of the phone, there was the sound of a chair falling over in a loud clatter. The person who answered the phone got up too quickly and overturned the seat.
However, Zhou Hao had no time to celebrate because there were two sets of footsteps quickly approaching him from behind. He was certain that his speed was already very impressive. The investigators of the Chinese division of the FBI had all undergone military training and he was the best among the investigators. Even though he was in his thirties, it was easy for him to beat four or five recruits by himself.
Moreover, he was a person who liked to train. He regularly participated in the military training organized by the unit every year. His strong skills had molded his powerful agility. At this time, running on the roofs of these houses, he was confident that almost no one could catch up to him.
However, this confidence was shattered now...
The two people behind him were like ghosts. They breathed steadily even when running. Not only that, with some obstacles that had taken him a second or two to climb over, they had simply lifted one leg or spun over with one hand to vault across. The dexterity of both sides was not at the same level!
Seeing that he was about to be overtaken by the two after running less than a hundred meters, Zhou Hao finally made up his mind. He gritted his teeth and simply stood on the roof of a residential house and at the same time, drew out his gun and aimed at the two.
"Stop, if you don't stop, I'll shoot!"
'Since I can't run, let's fight!' Zhou Hao thought silently.
However, something happened that sent chills down his spine. Considering that he had pulled out a gun, he thought that the two would stop immediately, but unexpectedly, the two of them practically ignored the gun in his hands and continued to approach him rapidly!
Ten meters, eight meters, five meters!
Seeing this, Zhou Hao finally understood that they were not the ordinary criminals he had encountered on usual days. Therefore, he did not even think about it and decisively shot one of them in the thigh!
"Bang!"
The thundering gunshot directly ruptured the tranquility of the village. In an instant, several dog barks rang out far away.
However, Zhou Hao did not care about this because he was surprised to find that, the moment the other man was shot at, he directly grabbed the railing next to him and twisted 30 centimeters to the left in a strange posture!
However, thanks to this thirty centimeters, the shot Zhou Hao fired missed its mark!
"Impossible!"
Zhou Hao did not want to believe all this. He did not even think about it and started pulling the trigger continuously, vowing to completely wound the two on the spot before they approached him!
Still, all this was in vain...
He only had time to fire four shots in a row. Before the fifth shot was fired, the two were right in front of him. One of them grabbed Zhou Hao's arm at once and was about to snatch his gun away!
Of course, Zhou Hao, who had experienced many fights, would not make such a mistake. He did not retreat but instead barreled forward into the opponent's arms. He wanted to use his opponent's instinct to disrupt his opponent's position while he flipped the gun in his hand, getting ready to point it against the other person's head.
However, just as he was pushing into his opponent's chest, he felt a twinge of pain in his abdomen. He lowered his head subconsciously but saw that his opponent had hit his abdomen with a punch at some point. His abdomen caved in deeply from the immense impact!
"Ugh!"
Zhou Hao only felt an urge to vomit swarming his head. He quickly suppressed the sharp pain and was about to fight back, but the other person's hand had swiftly grabbed his hair, and at the same time pressed his head down harshly!
This happened in the blink of an eye. Zhou Hao did not even have time to raise his hand to resist and the opponent's knees had flashed in front of him!
!!!
Zhou Hao could not help closing his eyes. The next moment, there was a sharp stab of agony on the bridge of his nose that struck deep into his soul. This pain made him unable to scream out and meanwhile, a swathe of golden stars flickered in front of his eyes, and he lost all consciousness...
This man called Zhou Hao was taken down like a child.
