Chapter 264: Statement

“You’re saying that there were two suspicious-looking people, who may be spies, trying to contact you?”

“Yes. They said they were from Huaguang Credit Company and wanted to talk to me. After I declined, they used my relatives to threaten me...”

In the office of the officer on duty at the police station, Chen Chen was sitting on one side of the table with a cup of tea in front of him while the police officer was sitting on the other side.

At this time, upon hearing Chen Chen’s remarks, the policeman could not help displaying a look of confusion. “Uh... Sorry, I haven’t asked who you are...”

“I’m the chairman of Blacklight Biotechnology. My name is Chen Chen.”

“Blacklight Biotechnology?”

The police officer paused. “This name is so familiar...”

“It’s Blacklight Biotechnology from Shangdu.”

“So it’s you! It’s an honor, a true honor...”

The police officer was startled, quickly stood up, and shook hands with Chen Chen. After that, he did not doubt Chen Chen any longer and began to record Chen Chen’s statement.

However, after a short while, the officer recording Chen Chen’s statement was suddenly summoned by another police officer, who seemed rather furtive.

About five minutes later, the police officer who was taking Chen Chen’s statement returned to the office with a hint of anguish in his expression. “Mr. Chen, we have verified something just now, something very unfortunate. Please don’t be frightened when I tell you.”

Chen Chen suddenly turned serious when he heard these words. “I’m a philanthropist. I will not be afraid. Please tell me.”

“Here’s what happened.”

The police sat back down across the desk and said, “We’ve just received a report. There was a car accident on the southern section of Bibo Road. A small white Zhaka car was hit by a heavy truck in the rear, causing the car to roll over. There was also a second collision. We’ve suspected this is a malice murder case and we were investigating the deceased. However, according to the license plate information, the owner of this car is suspected to be your relative, Chen Xiang.”

“What!”

Chen Chen widened his eyes when he heard the words and stood up abruptly. “That’s my second uncle! Oh no, are my parents in danger?”

“Mr. Chen, calm down!”

The police officer quickly soothed him. “Please calm down. We’ll investigate this matter carefully. I wonder if you have the contact information of Chen Xiang’s immediate relatives? We need someone to confirm the identity of the deceased.”

“Yes, my second uncle has a son and a daughter. My parents should have their numbers. I’ll ask my parents now...”

The police officer nodded.

After a few hours of making his statement, Chen Chen left the police station and returned to the hospital.

As soon as Chen Chen returned to the ward, Chen Chen’s father asked anxiously, “What’s going on? Little Chen, what happened to your second uncle and aunt?”

“It’s just an accident, nothing serious. Perhaps the police are even mistaken?”

Chen Chen frowned. “Just take care of Mom now. We’ll wait for an update from the police.”

“That...”

Chen Chen’s father only felt flustered. “Could it be that the police made a mistake and it was another car that had an accident?”

“That must be it.”

Chen Chen nodded and comforted his father. “Dad, don’t worry. God looks out for those who are good. They must be fine.”

“But... But why can’t I reach them on the phone?”

Chen Chen’s father did not relax after Chen Chen’s words. Instead, he became even more frantic as he paced around the room.

“Maybe both of them turned off their phones. After all, there’s so much pressure in modern society. It’s common to turn off your phone when there’s nothing to do to find your peace of mind.”

Chen Chen slowly walked to his mother’s bed and peeled an orange for her. “Mom, are you feeling better now?”

“I’m completely fine. Just take care of your dad now. Look at how he’s panicking...” Chen Chen’s mother could not stand it.

“What’s the big deal?”

Chen Chen’s lips twitched and he suddenly beamed. “Oh right, didn’t Second Aunt want to borrow a million from us for business? I’ll agree to that.”

“Ah, Little Chen, it’s not easy for you to make money either. You’d really agree?”

His mother asked worriedly.

“Sure, why wouldn’t I agree?”

Chen Chen chuckled. “Mom, I’m not that stingy. Plus, this money can be left to my cousin, Chen Shan. With this sum, she won’t have to worry about her future anymore.”

“My child, how can you say that...”

Chen Chen’s mother immediately understood what Chen Chen was implying and could not help but chastise him.

Chen Shan was the youngest daughter of Chen Chen’s second uncle. She was the same age as Chen Chen but was a little younger. When they were kids, she had also played with Chen Chen and she had not inherited her mother’s shrewish temper.

Then, as they grew up, the relationship between the two turned distant due to years of separation. Now Chen Chen had not seen his cousin for about four or five years.

Chen Chen’s second uncle also had an eldest son, who was 28 years old this year. Still, Chen Chen was not close to him, so naturally, he would not have any share of the money.

At this point, Chen Chen looked at his father, who was still fretting endlessly and shook his head.

Chen Chen’s loving, righteous father surely did not know that his second brother and sister-in-law had died long ago. Not only that, but they were also cremated on the spot. Their ashes were probably already scattered by the wind.

...

A few days later, Chen Chen’s father still had to come to terms with this cruel fact.

After attending the funeral, Chen Chen once again persuaded his parents to go to Namibia for a holiday.

Chen Chen’s parents hesitated for a while before they agreed.

After all, it was a city built by their own son. Now that they were invited, as parents, they had every reason to visit the place where their son was making a living. Anyway, they were not going to stay there permanently.

Thus, Chen Chen rested at home for a month, then returned to Namibia again and settled down with his parents.

To allow his parents to use the Medpod 3000, Chen Chen even deliberately disguised the Medpod 3000 as a CT machine and repaired his parents’ bodies under the pretext of a physical examination.

The restoration provided by the Medpod 3000 was much more advanced than any health-preservation technique owned by Chen Chen. In only one day, Chen Chen’s parents transformed from their 50s to their 30s at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye.

Even so, on second thought, Chen Chen still used a memory eraser to erase a short period of memory in his parents, making them think that they had undergone the “Age-reversal Treatment Project”.

Nonetheless, Chen Chen’s parents were still shocked when they saw their younger faces. Chen Chen said that, if they wanted, he could perform this kind of surgery on his parents’ relatives for free, including Chen Chen’s paternal and maternal grandmothers.

Of course, Chen Chen’s parents were one hundred percent in favor of this.

After fulfilling his wish to treat his parents, Chen Chen finally felt relieved.

With the Medpod 3000’s restoration, Chen Chen’s parents’ bodies had reached their best condition, which was equivalent to extending the lifespan of an ordinary person by 20 years.

Of course, the effects of repairing the body once or twice with the Medpod 3000 were not very obvious. What was truly formidable about this machine was that it could perpetually preserve the human body in an optimal state of health.

Therefore, repairing the body once a month or even once a week, was the best form of maintenance. After all, as long as the body was kept in its best condition for a long time, one’s lifespan would naturally become longer.

For example, the wealthy in Elysium could easily live past 250 years.
