Chapter 1190: Chapter 1190

"We belong to different systems; you’re from the Medical Research Department, and we’re from the Special Combat Department."

Yan Qinglong confidently replied, "I don’t have the authority to command you. Your boss will give you your tasks."

Upon hearing this, An Sheng almost spat blood in frustration.

Yan Qinglong and the others withdrew, but An Sheng received orders to stay at Jun Tianhao Hotel to observe the reactions of these test subjects. Isn’t this just a setup?

"Tang Leader, why is his phone able to make calls?"

Chen Cang glanced at his phone, puzzled, and asked Tang Ming.

"It’s a special feature of the exclusive channel. Simply put, it’s a targeted signal blocker; his phone has an anti-blocking device."

Tang Ming explained with narrowed eyes, showing his familiarity with these matters.

An Sheng angrily hung up on Yan Qinglong’s call, and just then, his phone rang again.

Seeing it was Nangong Tianyue’s call, An Sheng quickly stepped aside.

After connecting the call, Nangong Tianyue’s angry voice rang out, "An Sheng, what are you up to? Why have all the test subjects left the monitoring range, and now I can’t receive their body data from here."

An Sheng glanced at Tang Ming and quickly scolded the person on the phone.

"How dare you speak to me like that?"

Nangong Tianyue was stunned by the reprimand and erupted in anger.

"I’m in the hotel lobby with Tang Xin right now."

An Sheng quickly explained in a low voice.

"What... What’s going on?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Tianyue immediately lowered her voice, fearing Tang Xin would catch a clue.

"Tang Xin ordered people to move all the poisoned ones to the hotel lobby as if to treat them collectively... By the way, the Ming Group has already withdrawn. Why don’t you let me leave?"

After explaining the situation, An Sheng gritted his teeth and questioned.

"You are medical personnel, why would you leave? As long as you don’t tell Tang Xin that you’re from the Ming Group and just stay at the hotel as a hospital doctor, he won’t suspect anything."

Nangong Tianyue stated confidently.

An Sheng’s mouth twitched; he had already exposed his identity as a Ming Group member. Damn, that’s too pitiful.

"You didn’t already tell Tang Xin that you’re from the Ming Group, did you?"

Seeing An Sheng not speaking, Nangong Tianyue quickly asked.

"I already said it. Originally, I wanted to stop him from taking the test subjects out, only to find out that the Ming Group people had already withdrawn. What should I do now?"

An Sheng reported with a sob.

"You, you’re really a stupid pig; you might as well die."

Nangong Tianyue almost fainted from anger, and immediately hung up the phone.

An Sheng quickly dialed back, only to find the line had been disconnected.

In the makeshift lab, after Nangong Tianyue hung up, she immediately sent a message, then smashed her phone and destroyed the SIM card.

She used an anonymous phone, so even if the number was known, there’s no way to trace issues back.

As for that message, it was an order sent to an insider to handle the cleanup.

"Damn An Sheng, he’s just a complete idiot, revealing his identity in front of Tang Xin—nothing short of suicidal!"

After dealing with the phone, Nangong Tianyue cursed through gritted teeth.

Tang Xin wouldn’t even give face to Fu Tianyou, so how could mere An Sheng possibly scare Tang Ming? Exposing his identity so easily would only make the Ming Group an obvious target for Tang Xin’s suspicions.

Looking at the empty monitor screen, Nangong Tianyue adjusted it to Chu Batian and Xin Badao’s room, muttering to herself, "I want to see how Tang Xin plans to deal with the poison gas in this room. Once you open the door, the poison gas will spread, and everyone in the hotel will become my test subjects. The first one I want to kill is you."

An Sheng tried calling several times to no avail, unable to reach Nangong Tianyue’s number.

Just as An Sheng was filled with anxiety and unease, Tang Ming’s voice casually rang out, "Who are you calling? The other party seems to be monitoring the health of these patients. He knows there was a poisoning incident here?"

"It’s my boss, I’m reporting the situation here."

An Sheng put away his phone, forced a smile, and looked at Tang Ming anxiously.

"Boss? May I ask who your boss is, just to see if I know them?"

Tang Ming slowly stood up, his eyes gleaming coldly.

He had used cultivation to eavesdrop, clearly hearing An Sheng’s conversation, though he didn’t clearly hear the voice on the other side, leaving him uncertain about the person’s identity.

One thing was certain; the person An Sheng was in contact with was involved in the snb virus research and the mastermind behind this conspiracy, likely somewhat associated with the Ming Group.

Thinking he had been manipulated, nearly losing his life, Tang Ming felt an intense need to capture and brutally punish the mastermind.

"I—I have no obligation to report to you."

An Sheng gulped and, steeling himself, shouted, "I’m a doctor from the hospital, handling this outbreak, perfectly logical."

"Haha, don’t give me that crap; I’m not my brother."

Tang Ming coldly chuckled, approaching An Sheng while icily stating, "My brother is too merciful, unwilling to harm enemies, but I always welcome blood and violence."

"Doctor An, I fear..."

Seeing Tang Ming , the little nurse accompanying An Sheng quickly hid behind him.

"Tang Xin, don’t act recklessly; what are you trying to do?"

An Sheng was visibly shaken.

"Tell me who is behind you, or today I’ll crush you to dust."

Tang Ming menacingly threatened.

"You—you dare! I’m from the An Family; Divine Doctor An is my grandfather."

An Sheng feigned calmness and yelled.

"Bullshit, I, Tang Xin, don’t know him. If he dares to provoke me, I’d kill him just the same."

Tang Ming sneered dismissively, though he actually respected Elder An, but now he was Tang Xin.

"I’ll talk, I’ll talk, my superior is... ah!"

Seeing Tang Ming so ruthless, An Sheng, intimidated by his aura, prepared to confess Nangong Tianyue’s involvement, only to abruptly scream mid-sentence.

Tang Ming uttered in surprise, quickly stepping towards An Sheng, only to find him bleeding from his orifices, lifeless.

Tang Ming abruptly raised his head to look at the little nurse behind An Sheng.

"Yes, I did it, and I also administered the poison in the hotel. Your brother was also my target—I did it all."

The little nurse raised her hand, revealing an empty syringe.

Just as she came up to An Sheng, she injected him with a lethal poison that acted so quickly there was no time for treatment, not even Tang Ming could save him from the potassium cyanide.

"What a way to silence the witness. Now that he’s dead, just tell me who is behind this."

Tang Ming discarded An Sheng’s body and reached out to grab the little nurse.
