Chapter 522: Interception (Part One)
Xu Cheng pondered for a bit and said to Lin Dong, “Get it arranged then. Remember to keep it private. If you have trouble, get the four gangs to help.”
Lin Dong nodded.
Hawking’s identity was quite sensitive. In addition to being a British physicist, he was also a top-notch genius. It was a mistake that such geniuses weren’t born in the M Nation. Otherwise, if it weren’t for that he was sick, maybe he would already be on the list of assassination targets.
This time, the British MI6 was extremely nervous.
It was because, Dr. Hawking had recovered from all illnesses!
He was like an ordinary healthy person now!
But, he was in the M Nation right now.
After receiving the news of his prompt recovery, the MI6 immediately dispatched a team to fly to the M Nation and at the same time, requested the U.K. Embassy at the M Nation to extradite Hawking back home.
But… the M Nation refused!
A storm seemed to be brewing.
So, at this time, there must be eyes on Hawking planted by the CIA, and maybe only the four major gangs of Mexico knew how to peel away the layers of tracking on Hawking.
Everyone that traveled with Hawking was removed of all electronics and was finally brought to the black market on the Mexican border after going through thorough checks.
At the border, the CIA’s tracking signal was completely stopped.
Hawking met Xu Cheng at the backyard of Saar’s villa.
He was quite shocked to be honest. “It’s hard to believe that the doctor that was capable of developing a biotherapy that cures cancer is someone that’s not even thirty. Tell me, are you really the person behind the Mandala Lab?”
“Sir, will you be able to keep it a secret for me?” Xu Cheng smiled and asked.
“Of course, I’m not someone that doesn’t know how to be grateful,” Hawking said.
Xu Cheng smiled. “Have a seat.”
Hawking smiled and said curiously, “I’ve seen countless geniuses from all walks of life, and you are the most low-key one. Especially with how young you are, it really makes it difficult for me to see through you. Logically speaking, someone young like you with such big accomplishments shouldn’t be wanting to remain low-profile. It’s only normal if youngsters want to glow like stars.”
Xu Cheng: “Sir, do you know what it means if my genetic technology gets popularized?”
Hawking: “Of course, the valuation of the lab will skyrocket to an unfathomable amount! In this world, medical treatment and pharmacy are one of the most profitable legal industries, and you successfully curing cancer, this is no less than a revolution to the whole industry. Your genetic technology would basically subvert everything, and the benefits it can bring are endless. This is why I’m surprised you have thought maybe far enough that made you make the decision of remaining low-profile.”
Speaking of this, Dr. Hawking then mentioned, “That Middle Eastern tycoon that won the auction got killed. I heard the medicine was taken away from his hands.”
Xu Cheng’s eyes narrowed.
Hawking: “This is why I said the valuation of your technology is huge, because many people would go crazy for it, do you realize that? I’m very thankful that you saved me, and that’s why I’m here today trying to persuade you. Eat however much cake you have the appetite for; if you end up wanting too much, it might backfire and it’s also not practical.”
“I’m very thankful for your advice. I think you are in more trouble than me right now.” Xu Cheng smiled.
Hawking bitterly smiled. “You are right. I’m basically under house arrest in the M Nation now.”
