Chapter 92 The Mystery of Team King
The two agreed, and Han Shuo quickly led the fat man to Xiao Zhao's room.
Xiao Zhao looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression.
Han Shuo didn't ask directly, but instead called Li Shurou in first. Since the four of them were a team, it would be better for everyone to hear some news together.
"Shurou, come here for a moment."
Li Shurou was tidying up the table at the time and replied casually.
"What's up? Wait a minute, I'll be there as soon as I'm done packing."
"Oh dear, something important has come up. Let's have a quick meeting and deal with it later."
As the fat man spoke, he walked out and pulled Li Shurou inside.
"He's acting strangely and mysteriously."
"Ahem, alright, actually there are some things I'd like to ask Xiao Zhao about."
Han Shuo cleared his throat; he'd smoked too much today, and his throat was a little sore.
"Brother Han, go ahead and tell me. I promise I'll answer everything I know." Xiao Zhao was also quite puzzled, but seeing that Han Shuo was quite serious, he realized that the next question might be more important to everyone.
"In your underground research institute, is there a strong man who is over two meters tall, with explosive muscles all over his body, like a human tank?"
Han Shuo didn't waste any time with small talk and got straight to the point.
After hearing Han Shuo's description, a certain figure instantly appeared in Xiao Zhao's mind.
"Yes, exactly as you said, Captain Wang!"
Xiao Zhao answered affirmatively.
Han Shuo and the fat man exchanged a glance; Xiao Zhao was indeed someone they knew.
"Strange? Why are you suddenly bringing up Captain Wang?"
Li Shurou wondered to herself, she didn't know what was going on, why this person had been brought up out of nowhere.
"Could you tell me more about this person?" Han Shuo then asked.
"Holy crap? You guys didn't actually run into him, did you?"
In his haste, Xiao Zhao almost sat up, even tearing his wound open and causing him to grimace in pain.
Han Shuo and the fat man nodded in unison.
"Xiao Zhao, don't get excited. Fatty and I saw him on the roof last night. Is he also a genetically engineered human? Tell me slowly, I just want to know about this person."
"Um."
Xiao Zhao composed himself; he was indeed somewhat surprised to encounter people from the underground research institute here.
Once he had calmed down, he slowly told Captain Wang about the situation.
"Brother Han, just as you said, Captain Wang is indeed a genetically engineered human, and in the underground research institute, his strength and status are even higher than Captain Qingyu's."
"That's amazing!" the fat man couldn't help but exclaim.
"Don't interrupt, let Xiao Zhao continue." Li Shurou also became interested and rolled her eyes at the fat man.
"Yes, Captain Qingyu is a level 3 evolved human, while Captain Wang is a level 4 evolved human, so his overall strength is definitely stronger."
Han Shuo had already guessed this beforehand, and it wasn't difficult to analyze based on the situation of their battle.
"By the way, Captain Wang's name is Wang Bahu."
Xiao Zhao paused for a moment, sorted out his thoughts, and decided to start with the simplest thing.
"Stop joking around, what kind of parents name their child like that?" the fat man interrupted again.
"Shut up! Xiao Zhao, continue."
Han Shuo glared at the fat man fiercely, and only after he spoke did the fat man quiet down.
“What Fatty said is not wrong. It is said that Wang Bahu is not his real name. He changed it himself later.”
"Wang Bahu? Wang Bahu?"
Han Shuo thought to himself, "Even a dog wouldn't give me this name."
Although he didn't know the details very well, recalling Captain Wang's style of doing things, it really did fit the name.
"Almost no one knows Wang Bahu's real name anymore. Even if he is, not many people in the underground research institute use that name. They all call him Captain Wang because, like Captain Qingyu, he is also the leader of a team."
"So, is Captain Wang also part of the security team within the underground research institute, just like you?"
Han Shuo still wasn't used to calling that name.
"Yes, but he's not a soldier."
As Han Shuo had seen, Captain Wang did not resemble a soldier at all.
"Can someone who isn't a soldier become a guard? Also, Qingyu, what's your relationship with Captain Wang like?"
"He's pretty average. Even Captain Qingyu looks down on him. But he's the only one in the underground research institute with such exaggerated muscles, so based on your description, Brother Han, I can guess right away."
Seeing Xiao Zhao say this, Han Shuo finally felt relieved. As expected, Qing Yu was not one of them, and the two sides had no relationship whatsoever.
Xiao Zhao continued.
"As for how he became a member of the guard, I've only heard it from others, and I don't know if it's true."
"Tell me about it?"
"It's said that Captain Wang was a murderer before!"
As soon as Xiao Zhao said this, all three of them widened their eyes.
Han Shuo was a little confused as to why a murderer would join the guard team and even manage to achieve a decent position.
Xiao Zhao's next words dispelled his doubts.
"It seems that when Captain Wang was very young, he had a violent temper and was always causing trouble. Before he was even an adult, he defiled a girl and then cruelly killed her."
"Actually, Captain Wang's family background is very powerful. Unfortunately, coincidentally, the girl who died also came from an extremely prominent family. She was always regarded as the apple of their eye. She died tragically at Captain Wang's hands, so naturally the other party would not let him off easily."
"The elders of both sides argued about this for a long time. In the end, because a life was lost, Wang's elders were unable to protect him, so Wang was sent to prison."
"Because Captain Wang was a minor at the time, he was not sentenced to death directly, and he stayed in there for a very long time."
...
"This child has had personality flaws since childhood; it's an illness that needs treatment!"
Hearing such a horrifying story, the fat man finally couldn't help but chime in.
Han Shuo ignored the fat man and continued to press for answers.
"How did a murderer sentenced to life imprisonment end up in a research institute?"
"Cough cough..." Xiao Zhao was still very weak. After talking for a while, he coughed lightly twice.
The fat man next to him quickly brought over a glass of water and helped Xiao Zhao drink it.
After wiping his throat and catching his breath, Xiao Zhao felt better and continued speaking.
"That's because two years ago, the gene modification project needed human trials. There were definitely risks in the early stages of the experiment, so they used a group of death row inmates as guinea pigs."
"Captain Wang wasn't originally a death row inmate and wasn't on the list, but he has a half-brother. Through this opportunity, he was directly released from prison and allowed to join this experiment. After all, he would just die of old age in prison anyway, so it's better to try anything and give him a chance."
"By the way, Brother Han, Captain Wang's brother is the only Level 5 evolved human in the underground research institute that I told you about before."
"Holy crap! Is there no justice in this world?"
This wasn't said by the fat man; even Han Shuo couldn't help but swear upon hearing it.
