Chapter 62
"Zheng——" Pei Zhao turned his head, and the dazzling light forced him to close his eyes.
"You did a great job, and we got great data." The voice of the man in the white coat sounded beside him. Pei Zhao was in a trance for a while, and finally remembered what happened.
"...Okay." Pei Zhao opened his mouth but only uttered one word. He was too tired, his arms were sore, and his muscles were twitching from time to time.
He lowered his eyes, but his shoulders just blocked his trouser pockets, so Pei Zhao could not see anything.
Isaac noticed his action and said calmly, "...It's still there. No one took it away."
"...Thank you." Pei Zhao's thanks came from the bottom of his heart without any politeness.
Isaac untied Pei Zhao, pulled him up, and stretched out his hand: "Isaac, perhaps for a long time in the future, I will be your exclusive experimenter."
Pei Zhao stretched out his hand and repeated stupidly, "Isaac...exclusive...experimenter?"
Isaac quickly withdrew his hand. It was obvious that this was just a polite self-introduction to him. Pei Zhao touched his trouser pocket. The slightly protruding edges made him feel at ease. He exhaled, lowered his head and nodded.
"Okay. I'll cooperate with the experiment."
Isaac was satisfied. He hadn't seen such a cooperative prisoner for a long time, and one with such a high degree of memory completion. Pei Zhao would definitely provide him with a lot of useful data. Maybe...
A hint of sadness flashed across Isaac's face, but he quickly returned to his professional and indifferent attitude.
"I took it upon myself to upgrade your prison room to a premium one, so you can have a warm big bed and a shower." On the way back, Isaac took Pei Zhao by another route.
Pei Zhao followed in silence, secretly taking note of the signs on the road. But he soon found it too difficult.
The furnishings in this damn lab corridor are almost exactly the same! Pei Zhao thought he had a good brain, but he couldn't find a convenient place to remember things!
When Pei Zhao's memory almost collapsed, Isaac, who had always been in front of him and never even glanced at him, did not even turn his head, but the voice did come from him.
“Left, right, left, right, left, left, right, left.”
Pei Zhao was stunned: "...what?"
"Route." Isaac spoke briefly and still did not turn around, but his voice seemed different from before.
Pei Zhao wanted to ask something, but the two of them stopped in front of a room.
Pei Zhao took one look and was speechless. Just as Isaac said, this is a prison. The iron bars at the door indicate the purpose of this room, but if you ignore the iron bars, the decorations in the room are even more exaggerated than the most luxurious hotel suite Pei Zhao has ever seen!
The whole thing is high-precision and fully transparent...it looks like glass. All leather and solid wood furniture.
Still, Pei Zhao had never stayed in a presidential suite, but the facilities here were indeed many times more exaggerated than the most luxurious one he had ever booked.
Apart from the fact that there are no electronic devices, it is simply a paradise. If he hadn't gone through so much, Pei Zhao would have rushed in excitedly and even had the idea of giving up.
But now he didn't have any thoughts. After a moment of surprise, he thought about the business. He pretended to be embarrassed and looked at Isaac and asked, "...I'm a little scared. Do you want to come in and sit down?"
Isaac called up the panel next to the prison and entered a series of numbers on it. The prison door opened and Isaac said calmly, "I will take you to the next experiment tomorrow. Go to bed early."
The iron railings closed in front of him. Pei Zhao watched Isaac walk away, biting his upper and lower lips.
This person... is stubborn. It is too difficult to puppeteer him.
But why did he just tell him the route?
Pei Zhao looked at the panel outside the iron railing. In his mind, Isaac gradually took shape in the order of the password.
Pei Zhao noticed that the prison room where he was at the beginning and the place where the experiment was conducted were all equipped with surveillance cameras, but outside this room, he noticed that there was no surveillance when he came in just now.
Does this mean that he can...escape from prison?
Although jailbreaking is meaningless to him and may even attract administrators to punish him, for Pei Zhao, what he needs most now is to deal with people. As long as he can meet someone, he can find a way to turn that person into a puppet... and then he can return to the real world.
But not now. He needs to rest first.
His arms and legs were sore and painful, so Pei Zhao walked into the bathroom and wanted to take a bath. As soon as I entered, I saw two unopened bottles of medicine on the sink. Pei Zhao picked it up and looked at it, but didn't understand what it was. He wondered if it was put there by the person who lived here before. He couldn't figure out its effect, so he mixed it and put it back.
Pei Zhao felt better after taking a bath. There were burn marks on his wrists and ankles from electrotherapy. Pei Zhao found bandages and iodine in the medical box in the living room and wrapped them carefully.
"Alas..." After finishing the entanglement, Pei Zhao sighed, thinking that if it was Zhou Yuli, he would definitely feel distressed to see him like this. Before, Pei Zhao went to the hospital for an IV drip because he had a cold. Zhou Yuli had to touch the tiny pinhole on the back of his hand for a long time with concern.
Pei Zhao took out the box from his pocket, found the sewing box, made a hole in the ice box, cut a strip of cloth from his clothes, passed it through the hole, tied a knot at the end, and tied it around his neck.
"This way, it won't be stolen." Pei Zhao poked the box. The little green bud looked sleepy, with two leaves covering the little sparks and ice crystals on the left and right.
Pei Zhao put the ice box inside his clothes, and the slightly cool temperature made his heart return blood.
"...I will definitely take you back." Pei Zhao made up his mind secretly.
…
Pei Zhao was lying on the sofa. After silently reciting the number 3,600, he got up from the sofa and walked to the side of the iron gate.
He was thin and by turning sideways he could just lean his shoulder out and reach the panel.
Pei Zhao slowly stretched out his hand, leaned out half of his body, and took a step forward, one step, two steps——
As soon as his shoulder touched the railing, a strong electric current quickly penetrated into Pei Zhao's body from the point of contact. Pei Zhao's eyes suddenly widened and he fell to the ground in pain.
There is actually an electric current!
... Pei Zhao fell so hard that he saw stars and felt severe pain in his shoulder. Pei Zhao lifted up his clothes and saw a circle of burnt red on his lower body. This current is much larger than the current used in the experiment, and it can even be said to be life-threatening.
Pei Zhao stared at the iron railings, but didn't dare to try again. He was sure that a voltage of this intensity could really disregard human life and death, and if forced, it would cause irreversible damage.
Pei Zhao gritted his teeth, looked around, and caught the plastic tourniquet in the medicine box. It's a delight.
After a moment, Pei Zhao carefully attached the tourniquet to the railing and tried to hold it with his hand... There was no electric sensation.
Pei Zhao was delighted. He leaned out his shoulder again.
This time, he reached the panel as he wished and touched it lightly with his finger, but the next second after it lit up, Pei Zhao could see the contents on the panel clearly.
【Please perform user iris scan. 】
...Fuck high technology!
Pei Zhao cursed angrily. He closed his eyes, leaned forward and clicked [Account Password]. After a moment, the words [Enter Password] appeared on the interface.
Finally it has come to this. Pei Zhao held his breath and, according to his memory, restored as much as possible what Isaac had previously input.
The first time, [Wrong password, you have two more chances. 】
The second time, [Wrong password, you have one more chance. 】
Pei Zhao took a deep breath and tried one last time firmly and calmly.
【3, 7, 2, 1, 5, 4】Pei Zhao closed his eyes.
[The password is correct, the door is open]
Hearing the clanging sound, Pei Zhao opened his eyes and quickly retracted his arms to avoid being pinched.
The iron railing opened, and Pei Zhao walked out of the room, but he didn't dare to let his guard down. He took a deep breath and recalled what Miu Yi said, "Left, right, left, right, left, left, left, left."
"Upside down... left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right." Following this order, Pei Zhao still felt dizzy.
"…It's useless to just remember the direction! There are three or four turns in a corridor, who can remember it all?" Pei Zhao wanted to cry but had no tears. Isaac also had a good brain and could remember it.
Fortunately, although Pei Zhao found the location of the laboratory, he couldn't find his way back. Anyway, the purpose was to make a big deal out of it to attract more people, so he might as well go all out. Pei Zhao wandered around without restraint.
Almost every prison is empty. However, some rooms still had some signs of being lived in, and some doors had white strips taped diagonally with the words "No use allowed" written on them.
Pei Zhao observed that most of these sealed spaces had large blood stains and long blood marks, which looked like they were left by a struggle. It seemed that there had been a very inhumane massacre here.
Pei Zhao patted his chest, hoping that he would not encounter such a horrible experiment. He didn't know who the experimenter was who could be so cruel.
Unexpectedly, when Pei Zhao patted his chest and turned around, he saw a person standing in front of him.
Pei Zhao's breathing stagnated and he slowly raised his head.
This man was tall, about the same height as Zhou Yuli, but he was wearing a mask on his face, and the eyes on the mask were staring straight at Pei Zhao.
"Uh..." Pei Zhao was embarrassed and tried to wave his hand to say hello, "Hi... are you also... jailbroken?"
…
Pei Zhao was thrown into a low-level prison, where the conditions were even worse than the one he had just lived in.
He just bumped into a masked man and was thrown in here.
"Who is your experimenter?" The man pinched Pei Zhao's chin and spoke fiercely.
Pei Zhao shook his head. This man was more vicious than he had imagined. Isaac was very kind to him, so Pei Zhao didn't dare to betray him.
"I have no idea."
Seeing that he was being stubborn, the man threw him to the ground, and Pei Zhao's head hit the ground with a heavy thud. But Pei Zhao didn't dare to speak, because the man quickly clicked on the panel behind the prison cell and typed something on it. The door opened and it was pitch black inside. The man walked to Pei Zhao, with his trouser legs just touching Pei Zhao's face.
The man looked down and asked, "You really don't know?"
Pei Zhao had a bad feeling, but he still shook his head vigorously, "No, I don't know."
The next second, the man bent down, grabbed Pei Zhao by the back of his collar, and dragged him into the dark room.
