Chapter 170: The Su Family Mansion (Part 2) First Release...

This is an extremely remote courtyard. The gate is closed, but there is an aura of something wrong everywhere.

If the entrance hadn't been so densely packed with cameras, Shen Jiang might not have noticed. But it was this airtight security, or rather, surveillance, that made Shen Jiang sense something was amiss. She shook Godwin's hand, signaling him to come this way.

Godwin really liked the warm touch of her palm. He silently curled the corners of his lips and cooperated very well, letting her pull him away.

He just followed the direction of the camera and turned inside, thinking that he had reached the end. However, Shen Jiang walked several hundred meters inside, and only when he walked deeper did he see an inconspicuous two-story building at the end of the road.

Shen Jiang was breathing rapidly and couldn't help but quicken his pace.

There was no sound on the first floor of the small building, but on the second floor... Shen Jiang was sure that there must be something important on the second floor, because there were four sturdy and powerful men guarding the staircases on the east and west sides respectively.

Shen Jiang raised his eyebrows. That’s it.

Taking advantage of the fact that these people couldn't see him, Shen Jiang didn't care at all. He swaggered straight up to the second floor with Godwin by his hand. The two of them walked freely, leaving only a breeze in their wake.

It was the height of autumn, the sun blazing brightly, the air humid and hot. A gentle breeze brushed the faces of the two listless bodyguards at the stairwell, instantly igniting their urge to complain. One of the bodyguards glanced at the only intersection leading to this place; the green path not far away was empty.

He couldn't help but complain, "This order is quite bizarre. They paid us so much money to be their bodyguards, but instead of providing personal protection, they're asking us to guard the door. I don't know what those nerds are tinkering with on the second floor every day. They never let anyone in when they deliver food to them, as if they're afraid we'll get too much of the air conditioning."

The bodyguard didn't care what they were doing. He just felt that this countryside place was stuffy and hot, and there were many mosquitoes, rats and ants. It was really unbearable.

Shen Jiang was caught off guard as she passed by the two door gods. The person behind her suddenly spoke, which scared her.

Soon, another impatient bass voice sounded, scolding his companion: "Shut up, you took the money to do the job, and you care so much about others."

"Hey, I just feel sorry for my brothers, who have been guarding here day and night..."

Shen Jiang's mind raced. These bodyguards seemed unaware of the truth. It seemed Su Xingran was being very secretive. And the so-called protection these people were offering seemed more like a form of imprisonment to Shen Jiang. After all, with these people here, it was nearly impossible for anyone on the second floor to leave.

Possibility after possibility flashed through Shen Jiang's mind one by one, and a fierce argument was breaking out in the room on the second floor.

"How long do we have to wait?" The man with glasses had an unshaven beard and looked anxious.

"Why are you in such a hurry? It's only been a few days, and now you're saying that you've developed a targeted new drug. Are you afraid that people don't know that this disease is related to us?" The middle-aged man with a very receding hairline leisurely poured himself a cup of tea.

"But the incubation period of this virus is only one day at most. After the onset of the disease, once the patient falls into a coma, it can threaten the patient's life within three or four days." The man with glasses spoke as he paced back and forth.

"Wu Jiang, don't tell me that you only found out about this now." The man with the hairline said sarcastically.

The bespectacled man named Wu Jiang was speechless. He took off his glasses and wiped his face before speaking again, "But I'm really not sure if what we're doing is right. President Su won't let us contact the outside world, and we don't know what the situation is like out there. I'm always uneasy."

"You forgot that the subjects of this experiment are all gamblers, domestic abusers, homeless people, and stray animals. These people waste food and burden their families when they are alive. Even if they die, it will reduce the burden on everyone. What's more, the boss plans to set up a special foundation in the future to allocate funds to the families of these victims. That money is enough to change the fate of an entire family. Removing family burdens, reducing family burdens, and making money in return, how do you know those people are not happy about it!" Another researcher who had been silent suddenly spoke up.

Wu Jiang hesitated after hearing what he said, but he still wanted to know what was going on outside. "But why doesn't President Su allow us to contact the outside world?"

"Mr. Su did this entirely to protect us. He was worried that we wouldn't be able to bear the condemnation in our hearts, so he helped us make the sacrifice." The man with the hairline said as if it was a matter of course.

The woman, her hair meticulously combed, agreed, "Only by making the entire nation aware of the severity of this virus, and then developing an antidote, can we truly become famous in the academic world."

"Well said, we've worked so hard for this day, haven't we?"

After listening to them, Wu Jiang's face still looked a little reluctant, but he did not speak again. Instead, he walked to the corner silently, hoping that time would pass quickly, until the moment when they could announce to the outside world that they had developed an effective medicine.

Their families had long been transferred abroad for travel. Most of the people present at the moment were not worried about the disaster facing Nanze City. Instead, they were eager to try and looked particularly relaxed.

In another fortnight, perhaps a week, it will be their time to come out and save the world. It's not hard to imagine how much gratitude and applause they will receive along the way, and what awaits them will be an incredibly smooth future.

Shen Jiang couldn't bear to listen any longer and simply pushed the door open and walked in.

She thought that these people had lost their personal freedom and were locked up in this mountain, but it turned out that these people had ulterior motives and artificially created a disaster in an attempt to transform themselves and increase their worth.

The door of the room was suddenly pushed open with a creak, and everyone in the room looked towards the door.

"Strange, there's no one here." The man walked over to check, looked into the corridor, and then closed the door.

Shen Jiang and Godwin had already entered the room at this moment. They were not far from the door. Shen Jiang watched these people coldly. She would remember the appearance of these people and then send them to hell with her own hands.

"Are you going to kill them?" Godwin's low voice sounded in Shen Jiang's ears.

Shen Jiang shook his head: "No, that would be too easy for them."

Godwin had been taught since childhood that humans were the most despicable, shameless, insidious and cunning beings in the world, so he was not surprised at all when faced with such dirty human methods.

In his opinion, this is the normal state of human beings.

Ever since meeting the believers, Godwin had often doubted the perceptions he had of them since childhood. The believers were brave, kind, resilient, and even adorable. They were completely different from the stereotypical human image he had.

Godwin asked with interest, "How do you plan to punish these people?"

A hint of hostility flashed across Shen Jiang's eyes, as if he had thought of something. Shen Jiang's brows were cold, and he said word by word: "In this world, there are so many ways to make life worse than death. For many people, death is not a punishment, but a relief."

Godwin looked in the direction of the warm palm with a little surprise. The believer these days was very different from the pure white and harmless little white rabbit in the past, but this change only made him feel surprised.

Be surprised that every choice made by a believer always matches his inner inclination.

But he still felt vaguely uncomfortable. When the believer said that death was a punishment, her tone was as gloomy and ghostly as if she was very experienced in this kind of thing.

Shen Jiang searched for a while and suddenly said, "Found it."

Godwin could only see the object before them emitting a faint dark energy. He naturally recognized it; after all, he and his followers had been dealing with it for the past few days. Godwin thought he might have guessed what the followers were going to do.

Shen Jiang did not inject the virus reagent into everyone present at once. After all, she had to leave some people to clearly explain their crimes and disclose the principle of the antidote.

The first lucky audience member chosen by the goddess of fate was the man with the hairline, who had been sitting motionless at a table drinking tea. As he was drinking his tea, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back. He subconsciously touched it, but only felt a faint trace of blood.

The man with the hairline frowned, thinking it was just a bug in the mountains and didn't take it seriously. But after a click, the syringe that they had originally kept in the biological sealing box appeared out of thin air on the ground, and there was a faint trace of blood on the tip of the needle.

The man with the hairline was stunned. His intuition made his hair stand on end. He heard himself say in a hoarse voice: "What is this?"

Chen Ming was unable to request support and had been warned by his superiors not to act without authorization. He then discovered that Shen Jiang and the young man had simply vanished. He searched the vast mansion for over an hour but couldn't find them. If there hadn't been any noise coming from the Su family mansion, he would have believed the two had already sneaked in.

Chen Ming's movements outside the Su family's ancestral home were too obvious. Coupled with his appearance and tall posture, it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person. Someone soon reported it to Su Xingran.

When Su Xingran heard that someone who looked like a military member was lingering outside the house, he quickly responded: "Have someone dispose of all the antidotes and only keep the important information."

After his subordinates hurriedly left, Su Xingran played with the goblet in his hand. "It's interesting that you can find this place."

Chen Ming didn't find Shen Jiang, so he had to go back to his SUV and wait. He was a little dissatisfied with these young people who acted on their own. If something really happened, they would be the ones to regret it!

At this moment, the cell phone rang suddenly and frantically.

"We've found out. The material from Su Kang Pharmaceutical's lab is highly similar to the virus in the patient! Send us the address and we'll send someone over right away!"

When Chen Ming heard the news, he opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

Even though he was mentally prepared, Chen Ming still found it unbelievable after hearing it confirmed with his own ears.

The person on the other end of the phone continued, "You are taking two ordinary people with you. Don't act rashly. The armed forces will be here soon."

Chen Ming's throat was hoarse, but he didn't dare to hide it: "Report, they disappeared when I called for support."

"What?!"

On the second floor of the small building, the room was in chaos. The slightly bald man who was originally the calmest in the crowd had fallen into a state of madness. The teacup next to the man had already been smashed into pieces and scattered all over the floor, and other corners were also filled with various objects thrown by people.

"What happened to him? Why did he suddenly become like this?" someone growled with tears in his eyes.

No one answered this question.

The man's crimson eyes and frantic, indiscriminate attacks were a familiar sight to them. They had witnessed this scene countless times in the lab before.

At this moment, the door that was originally held up by these powerless researchers was suddenly forcibly pulled open by a huge force. They were unable to resist and fell to the ground.

The two rooms that were originally separated by the door were connected again. The mad man finally found his lost target. He roared excitedly and rushed towards everyone.

Seeing this, Wu Jiang's eyes were bloodshot. He grabbed the chair beside him and threw it at his mad companion. The frantic man paused, and the others, seeing this, seemed to have found a way to save their lives and followed suit.

The woman whose hair was originally combed meticulously finally had a messy appearance. She anxiously searched for something on the table, but found that the biological box where the antidote was originally placed was missing. Her companion fell ill at this time. Everything was extremely weird.

At this moment, the communication device that had been placed aside to communicate with President Su finally rang. The woman quickly picked up the phone and shouted for help. She could vaguely hear the voice on the other end saying, "Destroy all antidotes immediately."
