Chapter 694: 694
Chapter 694: Disguise
The most crucial question now laid before Zhang Heng and Bai Qing was whether they should destroy the alien tree beneath Workshop No . 3 or save people first .
Judging from the information obtained by Zhang Heng, these two places were quite far apart .
Emotionally speaking, when Bai Qing learned that her mother was still alive, she wished to get there immediately to rescue her . On the other hand, she knew very well that once they saved her mother, the glass factory’s aliens would be alerted . In terms of priority, the glass factory was more critical . That was because most of the aliens were gathering there, and if they were well prepared, even Zhang Heng would not be able to deal with so many at once .
If they went to the police for help, they had no way of determining if the aliens had infiltrated the force . Therefore, after hesitating for a while, Bai Qing said, “Let’s act separately . You go to the glass factory, and I’ll go to rescue my mother . ”
This was probably the only feasible solution at this stage . Zhang Heng nodded and did not attempt to stop her . He just said, “I will give you both the locator and the camera . Just keep an eye on the place for now . Once I deal with the problem in the glass factory, I will get to you as soon as possible . Remember, make no contact with them until I arrive . ”
“Yeah . ” Bai Qing grabbed the bag that Zhang Heng handed to her .
After experiencing so many horrible experiences, she was no longer your ordinary high-school girl . The final battle was just around the corner too, and she had decided not to let it affect her anymore .
After Zhang Heng finished, he thought for a while, then said, “Turn around . ”
Bai Qing then quickly turned around upon his request . When that happened, Zhang Heng took out the Lego blocks, assembled a chainsaw, and then inserted the Infinite Building Block to materialize it . While his fake stared at him in fear, Zhang Heng put the gag back into the clone’s mouth and started to crack open his skull with the chainsaw .

Once the brain was exposed, the thing in the fourth ventricle wanted to escape, but Zhang Heng quickly used a plastic box to scoop it up and put it into the glass jar . He cleaned up the blood on the ground and covered the corpse with a blanket .
He then handed the bloodstained glass jar to Bai Qing .
“If they want to attack you . Use this as a bargaining chip . ”
Bai Qing turned around and was taken aback by the glass jar’s contents . The thing inside was disgusting . That was the last straw . She couldn’t hold it in anymore, grabbing the trash can handed by Zhang Heng and vomited in it .
“Sorry,” Bai Qing apologized between gagging .
“It’s okay . There is still some time left . You have to get used to being with them before you leave,” said Zhang Heng . He also informed Bai Qing about other matters that needed paying attention . After that, he put on a new set of makeup on Bai Qing before they parted ways .
Bai Qing went to find her mother, while Zhang Heng first drove to the river, collected a bottle of blue-green algae with a mineral water bottle, then returned to the glass factory . It had only less than three hours since those creatures ganged up on him in the school .
Carrying his bag, he walked towards the gates of the glass factory .
This was the second time he came here . This time, he entered through the front gate instead of climbing the wall, even nodding at the guard on duty .
Initially, the guard wanted to stand up, but halfway through, he sat down again . He just sat there and watched Zhang Heng walking into the factory . He met many workers along the way and recalled what he saw the night before, and they passed him by like he did not exist . As expected, they still behaved the same way .

If the bosses of other factories saw this scene, there was a high probability that they would cry . This was probably the working environment of their dreams .
Zhang Heng did not encounter any problems until he walked to Warehouse No . 3 . As compared with last night, security here was even tighter . An outpost had been added, and a team of security guards stood there patrolling the area every five minutes .
When the leader saw Zhang Heng walking over, he said, “Stop, why are you back? It’s your duty to stay with that girl . You are not supposed to leave her side . ”
Zhang Heng said, “I underestimated her . I don’t know what went wrong . She seems to recognize that I’m not the original Zhang Heng . She pretended not to doubt my identity and ran away when I was not paying attention . ”
“She escaped? Does No . 2 know about this?”
“I called and told No . 2 about it . Fortunately, I managed to grab some of her hair before she ran away,” Zhang Heng went on . “No . 2 told me that I could start to clone her . ”
Zhang Heng made a huge bet here . He knew that No . 2 was the person responsible for coordinating the operation . During his previous conversation with the fake Zhang Heng, he never mentioned the thing under Workshop No . 3 . Zhang Heng figured that the alien tree would need something like hair or blood to clone someone .
It seemed the Lucky Rabbit Foot worked this time . The guard’s leader did not ask him any more questions after that . Not only did he step away from him, but he even took out the remote control and opened the gate for him .
Zhang Heng nodded at him and walked into Workshop No . 3 . But the next moment, the other man reached out and stopped him again, with only one word .
“Wait . ”
Immediately, Zhang Heng started to get anxious, worried most that these people would attempt to verify his claims by checking with No . 2 . If they did that, his lie would be immediately exposed . After a while, two security guards came over with a rabbit .
The leader of the guards retracted his hands . All of them then entered Workshop No . 3 with the rabbit .
Before they arrived at the underground entrance, another guard was already there to remove the can washer for them, revealing the secret entrance .
Zhang Heng knew that he would be trapped underground if his identity was exposed . All they needed to do was to move the can washer back to its original position to block the exit .
Without stopping, Zhang Heng followed the two security guards in front of him .
Zhang Heng could still smell the familiar and strange fragrance around him . The ferns from the Cretaceous period were still around . The stairs continued to descent, and at the very end was the door covered by the ugly vines .
One of the security guards walked up, using the rabbit as a sacrifice . The vines started to move faster and faster until the sarcoma on the branches eventually exploded, and countless tiny tendrils stretched out of it . Like a mosquito’s proboscis, they pierced into the rabbit’s body swiftly .
Another security guard quickly opened the door while the vines devoured the rabbit .
