Chu Jiaojiao was driving, Chu Xingyue was sitting next to her, and Jun Lan was sitting in the back.
Junlan glanced at Chu Jiaojiao and then at Chu Xingyue, intentionally or unintentionally. Chu Jiaojiao couldn't ignore her gaze. Chu Jiaojiao looked at her sister with a calm expression.
He glared at Junlan in the rearview mirror. Junlan was a little embarrassed when he was caught. It seemed a bit strange for such a big man to stare at two girls, so he quickly looked away.
Junlan looked at the increasingly remote area outside and wondered where his daughter wanted to take him.
Indeed, although it hasn't been confirmed yet, Junlan has already automatically assumed the role of the father.
The cars of those young men were still following behind.
We've arrived at the research institute.
The car stopped in front of the factory.
Those who were just about to eat inside were overjoyed to see Chu Xingyue getting off the bus and gathered around her happily.
"Teacher Chu, you're back."
"Teacher Chu."
Junlan followed Chu Xingyue like this.
"Teacher Chu, who is this gentleman?"
Someone noticed Jun Lan standing next to Chu Xingyue and asked him in confusion.
"Oh, this is for the examination later, and there might be surgery. After dinner, gather everyone to observe; it's a great learning opportunity."
Everyone was overjoyed to hear that they had another opportunity to learn.
"yes."
Junlan felt that the gazes falling on her were a little strange, as if she were naked in front of these people.
He shifted his body unnaturally.
He turned around and pretended to look at the other people behind him, but when he turned back, he found that there was no one behind him. It turned out that after Chu Jiaojiao and the others got off the bus, they saw that Sun Guoqing and the others were also on their way to eat, so they all went together. The three of them didn't even have a chance to greet Chu Xingyue.
Now, as long as you're not embarrassed, it's others who will be.
His eyes fell on a work ID card that someone wore on their chest. He looked at it very carefully, reading each word one by one. He recognized the words, but he couldn't understand what they meant when put together.
This man, who is known as Second Master to outsiders, seemed to have lost his mind at this moment, perhaps because his daughter was in front of him or something else.
Chu Xingyue found that her father was actually quite amusing; she wondered if he was just as quirky when he was with her mother.
"You don't need to eat lunch. Come with me to the cafeteria first, I'm hungry."
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the cafeteria. Seeing this, Junlan quickly followed behind his daughter, not daring to leave her side for even a moment, as if he would be devoured alive by this group if he strayed too far from Chu Xingyue.
These respected bigwigs, seeing the newcomer looking at them as if they were scoundrels, rolled their eyes at the sky in exasperation.
The cafeteria was filled with the aroma of food.
"Don't be afraid, there won't be any needles."
Chu Xingyue gently comforted Jun Lan, who was lying on the hospital bed.
Junlan, wearing an oxygen mask, felt the mist spraying from the mask. He took a breath and felt a little dizzy, and after the second breath, he completely lost consciousness.
"Teacher Chu, shall we begin now?"
Zhu Bo, who was standing next to Chu Xingyue, asked for her opinion.
"Okay, everyone begin, pay attention to every change."
Chu Xingyue couldn't be sure that Jun Lan's current condition was exactly what she thought it was; for now, she could only wait for the test results.
"Teacher Chu, come and see what's in here!"
Chu Xingyue was brought back to her senses by one of the researchers calling out to her.
"What's wrong?"
He leaned closer to the monitor and asked.
Before I could even reply, I witnessed a truly disgusting scene.
A plump, fleshy worm was currently moving around Junlan's heart, in sync with his heartbeat. This was definitely not something that could be developed in a day.
"My goodness, is this something from ancient times? What era are we living in? How can something like this coexist with a human body?"
"The human heart is like a source of nourishment."
Even the strong-willed Chu Xingyue felt a pang of sympathy for Jun Lan upon seeing this scene; how could those people have kept it from him for so many years?
Is this how this idiot has lived all these years?
"Continue elsewhere."
Chu Xingyue clenched her fist and ordered to continue.
The others, suppressing their nausea, continued to examine other areas, meticulously checking every single blood vessel.
"Teacher Chu, look."
As expected, there was one in my brain as well, but it didn't feel as vibrant as the one next to my heart; it was as if it had run out of oil and was about to die.
If you're not careful, you'll definitely miss this spot. It's located right behind the central nervous system. Its shape has become almost like a blood vessel, but you can still see it if you look closely.
Didn't Chu Xingyue and the others discover that?
The full-body examination took all afternoon. Chu Xingyue even found a miniature tracker under the skin of Jun Lan's neck, and even that tracker wasn't easy to remove.
The test results came out, and everyone fell silent as they looked at the report. How many more compatriots were suffering inhumane treatment that they didn't know about?
Looking at Junlan on the hospital bed, everyone showed expressions of sympathy and admiration. What kind of willpower supported him?
Junlan woke up slowly at night, and when she opened her eyes, she saw only dim light.
"You're awake?"
"Hmm, how long have I been asleep? What were the test results?"
Junlan is very worried about her health.
"Moisten your lips first."
Junlan took a sip of water, put down the cup, and looked at Chu Xingyue.
"Take a look at this video first."
Chu Xingyue used the remote control to turn on the projector on the wall.
Junlan watched the video of the examination they performed on him that afternoon, carefully touched his heart, then his head, and then the back of his neck.
"So it turns out I was also one of their experiments."
Junlan muttered to himself.
"Could you describe the process of each of your physical examinations?"
"It's strange, but the physical examinations are always very quick. Like the one you did this afternoon, it was done under anesthesia. When I woke up, the examination was already over, and the reports I received always said that I was in perfect health."
"What did you mean by what you just said? As far as I know, that private research institute abroad was originally a human experimentation lab. I've seen everything inside. Were you involved?"
"So it was you that time?" "You know."
Chu Xingyue said to Jun Lan with certainty.
"Yes, the higher-ups were shocked and ordered a thorough investigation, but for some reason, it was dropped."
How much do you know?
"I..."
"Don't worry, you should know that you have a tracker on the back of your neck, but from the moment you stand next to me, the tracker on your body will show that you are constantly moving, but it can't track me."
"Ah!" Junlan was shocked again. This tracker was his most treasured possession, and now his daughter, whom he had just recognized, was telling him that he couldn't track her?
"Don't be so shocked. Our country is much stronger and more advanced than the top power you think you serve. This little piece of junk, if I didn't need you to help me find them, I would have dismantled it during the inspection this afternoon."
"The most dangerous thing for you right now isn't this, but the worm in your heart. Do you know what it is?"
"It is a container used to provide nutrients to the mother Gu."
"So, if the mother Gu is alive, you're fine, but if anything happens to the mother Gu, you'll be the first one to suffer?"
"You could say that the Bai family are traitors to the Miao village. During a special period, they used their Gu poison skills to defect to the D country. In order to make them work for them, the D country arranged for them to stay in a small village not far from the border. The people there can basically raise Gu insects, and the village chief and his son are particularly skilled in it."
"I think Bai Ling likes you quite a bit."
"Yes, but I don't like him. My whole body repulses him. I've made it very clear to her, but she just won't give up."
"Do you think it's possible that you are the breeding vessel for the Gu worms that the Bai family father and son prepared for Bai Ling?"
Although Chu Xingyue's words were cruel, if it were before today, he might have only had doubts, but now he was 100% certain.
How much do you know about the events that have occurred in several places across the country?
"This is an operation launched by D country in conjunction with other countries against China. They want to prevent China from engaging in diplomacy. If the situation becomes serious, it will spread like a plague among the Chinese people, paralyzing the entire country. They will drag China down to its death. At that point, the Chinese leadership will definitely not sit idly by and will try to find a solution. This will cause the overall economy to regress for several years."
"These bastards." Chu Xingyue spat.
"How far have you progressed in your human experiments?"
"There aren't many successful examples of experiments so far, but there are a few. You've been to that research institute; they had a 70% success rate for their experiments, and even that made the higher-ups very happy for a long time."
Where is the place?
“I can’t say. If I do, the tracker on the back of my neck will release toxins. I don’t want to die.”
"Oh? It seems this thing is still somewhat useful."
"Hehe." Junlan smiled apologetically.
"We'll perform surgery tomorrow morning; we absolutely have to remove it."
"But I can guarantee you'll make it off the operating table. Think carefully about whether you want to have this surgery or not."
Junlan did it without any hesitation.
"Okay, rest tonight. The surgery will start first thing tomorrow morning. Wish us all the best."
"Thank you."
"It's your fate to have met me; otherwise, who knows what might have happened to you." Chu Xingyue smiled confidently at Jun Lan.
Back in her dorm and lying on her bed, Chu Xingyue knew it wasn't time to tell the Jun family and her mother, Jun Lan, about the matter. She wondered if everything would go smoothly tomorrow.
"Jiaojiao, I will be performing the two surgeries at the same time. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of everything. Please keep an eye on everything outside of the surgeries for me, as well as any changes in Ashan. All the changes will start with him now."
"Yes, sister, don't worry, I'll be by your side. You can focus on your surgery."
The brain and heart surgeries will be performed one after the other. Zhu Bo will remain as the assistant. Zhu Bo will take over when Chu Xingyue's most critical parts are finished.
Are you ready?
"Um"
Zhu Bo was on high alert.
"start."
Junlan's hair had been shaved off beforehand, so the surgery was not difficult for Chu Xingyue. She cut open the blood vessels and used her internal energy to suppress the Gu worms.
It's out.
This one was much thinner than the previous ones, as if it was about to die. Chu Xingyue didn't do anything to it, but after packing it up, she handed it directly to another assistant who was waiting next to her.
Zhu Bo handled the rest of the problem without any issues. He worked quickly and soon began stitching.
Everyone watched as Chu Xingyue's knife moved steadily and ruthlessly against Jun Lan's body.
What instruments show can never be as amazing as what you see with your own eyes.
This Gu worm, visible to the naked eye, was so fat it looked like it was about to burst. It had been fed with Junlan's heart's blood all along, so it would be strange if it wasn't fat.
Even when Chu Xingyue's heart was pierced, the Gu worm seemed to know that it was coming to capture it.
How could Chu Xingyue possibly give it that chance? Her inner force kept chasing after the little guy, and was driven by Chu Xingyue toward Jun Lan's nape.
He was directly suppressed by Chu Xingyue's internal force from several directions, pinning him to the back of his neck and rendering him unable to move.
Zhu Bo has finished handling the follow-up work on the heart. Chu Xingyue glanced at him and nodded. Zhu Bo is definitely one of the best in the industry.
He took out a clean scalpel and made a cut on his hand, startling everyone watching. What was Teacher Chu doing?
Chu Xingyue used her internal energy to shoot a drop of blood into the tracker when no one was paying attention.
Chu Xingyue's blood was no longer just a potent tonic; it was the kind that could alter genes with a single sip. A single worm couldn't withstand it. The internal force suppressing the Gu worm dissipated, and the little worm, feeling the pressure lessen, desperately tried to bite the tracker.
The moment the tracker entered the Gu worm's mouth, Chu Xingyue swiftly and precisely removed the Gu worm with a swift motion.
The worm hissed even while still in mid-air, sending chills down the spine of anyone who heard it. When it fell to the ground, it turned into black blood.
"Oh my god, this disgusting thing finally came out. I was so nervous watching it."
"If I had something like that in my body, I would definitely commit suicide, let alone if it were in my heart."
"It's absolutely disgusting."
Someone tried to pick it up, but Chu Xingyue stopped them immediately. This thing is so poisonous, who knows if touching it would kill them instantly.
Chu Xingyue used her knife to pick up the thin, cicada-wing-like chip from the blood and examined it carefully.
"You guys stay here and assist Zhu Bo, I'll go and study this thing."
Before leaving, Chu Xingyue made sure to collect the black blood on the ground; she wanted to see what kind of thing could kill someone instantly.
The blood test results were available in half an hour after analysis in the instrument.
When Chu Xingyue received the report, she was a little incredulous. The main ingredient was actually the giant python they had dealt with in the forest before.
How did these people obtain them?
Chu Xingyue took the report and turned to go to the room next door.
Take a closer look at this so-called high technology.
Looking at the chip still hanging on the knife, this thing is indeed quite powerful.
