After having lunch at Yan Weila's home, Yan Jien administered the T Liquid to Yan Weila and observed her reaction. Yan Weila had unconditional trust in Yan Jien; she did not feel any pain but rather a tingling sensation. Moreover, her mind was not focused on herself but rather on the effects of the T Liquid.
"Alright, the T Liquid is now effective in your body. I'll check on you again tomorrow morning," Yan Jien said.
"Okay," Yan Weila nodded.
"Then I’ll head back," Yan Jien said.
"So soon?" Yan Weila asked in surprise.
"Yeah, I need to go back and edit the video, then post it on Douyin tonight," Yan Jien replied.
"Well, alright then," Yan Weila said helplessly.
"Dou Dou, say goodbye to Uncle," Yan Weila told Dou Dou.
"Goodbye, Uncle," Dou Dou waved at Yan Jien.
"Goodbye," Yan Jien waved back at Dou Dou and then left Yan Weila's house to return to his own home. He opened his computer, imported the video he shot yesterday, and began editing. After two hours of work, Yan Jien finished editing the video and posted it on Douyin.
After posting the video, Yan Jien played with Dou Dou and two little puppies for a while before heading to the company. He found Hu Pei'er and informed her about his resignation.
"You’re resigning?" Hu Pei'er looked at Yan Jien in surprise and said, "You were doing so well; why do you want to leave?"
"I want to make videos on my own," Yan Jien replied.
"I saw that fitness video you made on Douyin; it was really good," Hu Pei'er said.
"Thank you," Yan Jien expressed his gratitude.
"Actually, you don’t need to resign. With your current situation, you could easily make videos while still working at the company," Hu Pei'er suggested.
"Manager Wu, I still want to resign," Yan Jien insisted.
"Are you worried that working will affect your video-making?" Hu Pei'er asked.
"No," Yan Jien shook his head.
"Then why?" Hu Pei'er asked in confusion.
"I want to dedicate more time to making videos," Yan Jien explained.
"Since you've made your decision, I respect your choice," Hu Pei'er nodded.
"Thank you, Manager Wu," Yan Jien said gratefully.
"No need to be polite," Hu Pei'er shook her head.
"By the way, even though I'm resigning, I can work as a part-time salesperson. If there are any leads, I'll refer them to the company," Yan Jien mentioned.
"That’s great!" Hu Pei'er exclaimed with delight.
Now, Yan Jien's monthly sales had already surpassed all other designers; if he could work part-time as a salesperson, it would definitely be beneficial for the decoration company.
"I'll go talk to director Liao about this," Hu Pei'er said.
"Okay," Yan Jien nodded.
Hu Pei'er stood up to find director Liao and returned shortly after.
"Director Liao has agreed. He will talk to you once your resignation procedures are completed," Hu Pei'er said.
"Okay," Yan Jien nodded.
"Then you can go ahead and get busy," Hu Pei'er said.
"Sure," Yan Jien replied, then returned to his workstation to handle his resignation paperwork.
An hour later, Director Liao called him in for a conversation, which mainly consisted of some retention talks. However, Yan Jien had made up his mind to leave, so he did not insist on keeping him.
After completing the resignation procedures, Yan Jien felt an immediate sense of relief. From now on, he could finally arrange his time freely.
Exiting the company gate, he drove back to Jubao Huayuan.
...
Yinshan Ridge.
Professor Fang looked at the corpse of Dogman on the ground, his expression grim. Dogman was a mutant creature he had spent a great deal of resources cultivating, and now it had been killed; naturally, he felt immense pain.
"Who did this? Who could have done it?" Professor Fang gritted his teeth.
He crouched down to examine the Dogman’s body and noticed multiple fractures.
"It seems to be caused by something like a club. It looks like it wasn't a mutant that killed him, but a human," Professor Fang speculated.
He checked the wounds on Dogman's neck and found they were caused by a sharp object.
"It's a knife wound; one strike was fatal. The killer must be quite skilled," Professor Fang concluded.
He stood up and looked around.
"Dogman must have been trying to return but was killed before reaching the villa. It should be in this direction," Professor Fang murmured as he gazed toward the villa.
He took out his phone and opened an app, instantly revealing a red dot on the map. This was the Locator installed on Nine-Headed Peak; he had previously arranged for Dogman to act alongside Nine-Headed Peak.
By following the Locator, he could find the direction Dogman was heading and thus locate the murderer.
Professor Fang followed the direction indicated by the Locator and soon arrived at Nine-Headed Peak's location.
"Where is this?" Professor Fang glanced around and realized he was in a garden.
He surveyed the garden and noticed a small house within it.
Professor Fang walked over and pushed open the door of the small house.
"Woof Woof Woof..."
Immediately, three puppies ran out from inside, barking at Professor Fang.
"Are these Dogman's offspring?" Professor Fang looked at the three puppies with surprise in his eyes.
He crouched down to observe them and noticed they were somewhat different from ordinary puppies.
"Could it be that Dogman's genes have already integrated into them?" Professor Fang speculated.
If that were true, then these three puppies could also be considered mutant creatures.
"What a pity they're too small; even if they are mutants, they won't be of any use," Professor Fang frowned.
"Hmm? What is this?" Suddenly, Professor Fang noticed some white liquid on the ground.
He dipped his finger in it and brought it to his nose to smell.
"Is this T Liquid?" Professor Fang exclaimed in shock.
He didn't expect to find T Liquid here.
"Could it be that a werewolf killed Dogman?" Professor Fang speculated.
Currently, there are only two types of mutant creatures in the world that possess T Liquid: werewolves and Fox Woman.
The presence of T Liquid here likely indicates the involvement of a werewolf.
Moreover, the strong smell of T Liquid suggests it was left not long ago, probably by the murderer of Dogman.
"But why would a werewolf come here?" Professor Fang wondered.
"Is it for these three little ones?" Professor Fang guessed, looking at the three puppy cubs.
If that's the case, then the werewolf will definitely come back, and they would be able to catch it then.
Professor Fang checked the laboratory again and found that many things had been tampered with.
"It seems my guess was correct; the werewolf must have come for these three little ones," Professor Fang said.
He took out his phone, snapped a picture of the three puppy cubs, and sent it to Dr. Jiang.
"These three little ones should be descendants of Dogman. Can you help me test them?" Professor Fang asked.
"Sure," Dr. Jiang replied.
Ten minutes later, Dr. Jiang sent a message back.
"The test results are in; they are genetically related to Dogman," Dr. Jiang said.
"Just as I thought," Professor Fang nodded.
"Did you find Dogman?" Dr. Jiang asked.
"I did, but it's already dead," Professor Fang replied.
"Dead?" Dr. Jiang exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, killed by a werewolf," Professor Fang said.
"A werewolf? Are you sure?" Dr. Jiang asked.
"Absolutely, I found traces of T Liquid," Professor Fang confirmed.
"Then this werewolf must be a Perfect Form," Dr. Jiang stated.
"It should be," Professor Fang nodded.
