Chapter 59 Xiao Yubai's room was arranged on the basement floor. Although it was only 30 square meters, it was already a basement
Xiao Yubai's room was arranged on the first basement floor. Although it was only 30 square meters, it was the largest among all the researchers on the first basement floor.
This research institute has a total of ten floors. The first four floors are living areas, and the last six floors are experimental areas. As the number of floors increases, the more times the experimental subject is injected with the evolution agent, the lower the alienation degree, and the more likely it is to achieve their original intention of the experiment. Experimental subject 001 is now on the tenth floor underground.
"Host, there are several hidden cameras in the house."
"Hmm," Xiao Yubai responded softly, without revealing any flaws on her face. She closed the door and took off her already dirty lab coat.
After looking around, she sat down at the desk. On the narrow desk, there was a pen and a few scraps of manuscripts lying quietly, nothing else. She placed her slender fingers on the drawer and took out a leather-covered notebook.
She seemed to be flipping the pages casually, but in fact, the contents had already been imprinted in her mind. When she turned to the latest page, she picked up a pen and followed the original owner's example to record the contents of today's experiment.
After finishing everything, she picked up the clean clothes and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Fortunately, there was no surveillance camera in the bathroom.
Amid the sound of splashing water, Xiao Yubai integrated all the information he had obtained today.
The novel that the system sent her was all about the male protagonist. She, a cannon fodder who died early, had no role at all and was simply mentioned briefly. It was not of much value.
The research data on the fifth underground floor reflected the records in the original owner's notebook, and she suddenly chuckled.
I have to say that the original owner is worthy of being a rising star in scientific research. If she continues to research in her direction, she might be able to create a monster that has no emotions and only obeys the master.
However, she is not interested in this research direction.
After a simple wash, she changed into clean clothes and walked out. Her black hair fell to her shoulders, and the wet water dripped down her hair, leaving a trail of water marks on her clean lab coat. Her skin was unhealthily pale from staying in the laboratory for many years, and her black eyes were serious and cold, without any emotion.
The urgent alarm sounded from underground, penetrating the thick reinforced concrete and echoing in the underground layer, instantly interrupting all her thoughts.
She looked out the window thoughtfully, and saw countless armed guards running towards the elevator in the corridor.
Even the guards on the underground floor were alerted and temporarily sent down. It looks like the situation is serious. Is 001 going berserk?
It seems that she has to hurry up and get close to her as soon as possible. 001's current condition is not very good, and she can't accept more injections of evolutionary agents. If it really reaches that point, she will be completely hopeless.
She was quite interested in the research on reducing the alienation value, and she didn't want to be torn to pieces by 001 who had completely lost his mind before she could figure it out.
The alarm sounded for almost an entire night before it stopped. In the early morning, Xiao Yubai left the room as usual.
The seven-member team had already been guarding her door, and the captain greeted her respectfully. Xiao Yubai was escorted to the elevator by the guards.
Suddenly, Xiao Yubai paused and frowned.
"I forgot to take the documents I left in the room. Captain, please wait for me. I'll be there soon."
"Okay, Dr. Shaw."
After going back and forth, he arrived five minutes later than the scheduled working time.
The elevator door slowly opened, and the fifth floor underground was in a state of restlessness. The researchers gathered in a circle. Xiao Yubai looked at them coldly.
"What are you doing?"
"Dr. Xiao, your assistant..." A researcher paused, not having the heart to continue.
Xiao Yubai walked along the path that had been cleared for her. Her assistant fell to the ground, his chest corroded by some unknown solvent, and blood was flowing. His eyes were wide open, and he was already dead. Just five minutes ago.
Xia Yubai was a little dazed, and a trace of sadness flashed across her calm eyes. She bowed for him with compassion and helped him close his eyes.
"Everything for humanity."
His death did not cause any ripples, and the experiment continued as usual. Xiao Yubai looked at the boiling solvent in front of him and recorded the experimental data meticulously.
After being busy for a long time, she rubbed her wrist. The captain beside her took the opportunity to ask:
"Dr. Xiao, do you need to reassign an assistant?"
"Not for now. I can handle this. An inexperienced assistant would only make things worse." The cold voice faded away, and she sighed softly: "Everyone's life is life."
The respect on the captain's face deepened.
Xiao Yubai seemed to hear the mechanical sound of favorability +5 in his ears. The assistant's death was certainly not accidental. She was busy late yesterday and did not clean up the laboratory table. She put two bottles of solvent together and the lids were not tightened.
The two solvents are very mild when left alone, but once mixed together they will produce a strong chemical reaction, and if they get on the skin, they will corrode it in a short time.
She had calculated that he would organize the solvents on the lab bench.
There is no good person in this laboratory, so she had no psychological burden at all when she took action.
She spent several days reading all the information she had access to, with her notebook filled with conjectures and data. She experimented again and again, failed, reversed, verified, and experimented again... She didn't know how many times she had gone through this cycle.
Xiao Yubai spent two weeks in the lab and got this small bottle of reagent. A rare smile appeared on his tired face.
She looked at the experimental subject in front of her. The girl in front of her had a pair of huge wings, her face was covered with black feathers, and her long and pointed beak was pecking hard at the glass of the nutrition cabin.
Xiao Yubai tightly grasped the reagent in her hand, and hesitated for a rare moment. She pecked faster and faster with her sharp beak, and did not stop even when her beak broke. She pecked with her beak, and hit with her face...
Her beautiful big eyes turned into two small black beans, and she was shedding tears of pain. Rather than hatred, she was thinking more about why she wasn't allowed to die.
Xiao Yubai pursed her lips, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes. The sharp needle in the nutrition cabin pierced into her body, and she twitched all over and fainted.
Xiao Yubai stood there and waited quietly for a while. The feathers on the girl's face seemed to be a little shorter, revealing her beautiful face vaguely. Her distorted face relaxed instantly.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief, and stroked her wings through the glass with her slender fingers. She murmured softly:
"Have a sweet dream."
The bright red alienation degree of the nutrient cabin fluctuated back and forth for a while, and finally dropped a little.
Xiao Yubai packaged the experimental data and the experimental process together and reported it, then returned to the dormitory and fell asleep.
Next, someone should look for her.
After sleeping for a whole day, when she stepped out of the door again, the captain respectfully reported:
"Dr. Xiao, Dean Song has something urgent to discuss with you. He wants you to leave as soon as you have rested."
Xiao Yubai followed the captain to the elevator entrance, where a better-equipped guard was quietly guarding.
Fifth floor, sixth floor, seventh floor... the elevator stopped at the tenth floor.
Dean Song, the person in charge of the tenth underground floor and also the person in charge of the entire research institute, was waiting in the office early.
Upon seeing Xiao Yubai, Dean Song stood up enthusiastically and asked a few questions about her current life in the institute.
After some polite questions and answers, he finally got to the point.
"Dr. Xiao, I heard that you have developed a drug that can reduce the degree of alienation." Although it seemed like an uncertain inquiry, in fact, the report submitted by Xiao Yubai had been read over and over again by them countless times.
"In theory, yes. Unfortunately, I have only conducted a clinical trial once. The data provided is not reliable. But you should have seen that the alienation level of the test subjects in the nutrition chamber was indeed reduced by 5%, although it only lasted for one day before returning to its original value."
"One day is good, one day is good too." Dean Song excitedly held Xiao Yubai's hand, and his ugly face after several days of sleepless nights seemed to be relieved a little.
"Dean Song, you..." Xiao Yubai revealed a hint of doubt at the right moment.
"Dr. Xiao, it's like this. You should have heard of Subject 001. Recently... or should I say, since the twelfth injection of the evolution agent, its alienation level has been jumping up and down non-stop, and it is very unstable."
"And its body has been greatly strengthened by the evolutionary agent, and it is now comparable to high-level psychics. Ordinary nutrition chambers cannot contain it at all. In the past few days, it has attacked the nutrition chambers as soon as it woke up, trying to escape. In order to control it, many guards have been lost. I wonder if your research can be used on 001."
Xiao Yubai frowned, feeling a little embarrassed: "Dean Song, I also want to contribute to this great research. But the alienation stabilizer is still in the clinical stage, and I don't know what effect it can produce." Dean Song's face turned bad when he heard it.
"However, if I can observe and study 001 closely, obtain its exact data, and configure it specifically for 001's situation, the chances of success will be much greater."
"Okay." Dean Song hesitated for a while and agreed with gritted teeth.
The base has been urging us these days, investing so much manpower, material and financial resources, and wants an exciting result.
Although Xiao Yubai has only been in the institute for a short time, she has made a great contribution by developing this drug. Since she is so dedicated to research and has gained loyalty, let's make an exception and let her join this core project.
The researcher was wearing heavy bulletproof vests and observing the miracle before him through the glass.
The girl floated quietly in the nutrient solution. Her waist-length hair had grown a little longer and gently floated in the nutrient solution. All the data of 001 was left unguarded for Xiao Yubai to view. The more Xiao Yubai looked at it, the weirder her expression became. She always felt that something was wrong with 001.
Its golden vertical pupils suddenly lifted up, and its thick tail slammed heavily on the nutrient capsule. With a loud cracking sound, the nutrient solution gushed out. It fell to the ground on all fours, roared fiercely at the terrified researcher, and raised its fine fangs.
The protective glass could not bear the heavy weight of the blow from the thick tail and broke into pieces and flew out. The debris flew everywhere. 001 pounced forward and bit off the researcher's neck.
Unfortunately, Xiao Yubai was hit by the glass. She flew out and fell heavily to the ground. Academician Song's distant roar was heard beside her:
"Guard! Guard! Protect Dr. Xiao!"
Damn, a bunch of rubbish.
Xiao Yubai couldn't get up for a while, and kept moving backwards, looking vigilantly at 001 who was biting everywhere.
Faster than the guards was 001. After it tore the nearest researcher to pieces, its golden pupils swept towards her, locking onto her like a prey animal.
With its limbs tightly gripping the ground and its muscles tensed, it shot out like an arrow. Under the dazzling golden light, it opened its mouth wide and bit towards her.
The sharp teeth bit Xiao Yubai's right hand fiercely. She quickly took out the medicine she had prepared long ago and stabbed it hard in the neck. 001 froze for a moment, the force on his mouth loosened a little, and the golden light in his eyes dimmed. He raised his nose and approached Xiao Yubai and sniffed.
The fluffy head suddenly fell on her arms, and 001 fell forward weakly, knocking her into his arms.
Fortunately, Xiao Yubai reacted quickly and dodged a second before he fell. Boom, his head hit the ground heavily.
She covered her arm, which was spurting blood, and took a deep breath. How cruel.
