Chapter 522 Hidden
Xia Yan shook his index finger without even turning his head, and said indifferently:
"No, I'm already awesome enough."
The enthusiastic expression on Jing Wenbin's face froze instantly.
He couldn't even think of a rebuttal.
Very good, that's the problem - she is strong enough to change her mind and stand on the same side at will, or form her own team. This is a potential huge risk for Jing Wenbin.
"Are you really not tempted at all? Together we can clear all obstacles. I can give you 90% of the existing resources!" Jing Wenbin was unwilling and even raised the stakes.
If possible, he didn't want to become enemies with her, even if she destroyed two buildings and blew a big hole in the city wall today!
"In no mood."
The woman didn't even want to look back, her tone was as firm as if she was swearing to join the party.
Jing Wenbin clenched his back teeth and took a deep breath.
"Mr. Bin..." A researcher in work clothes walked up and whispered something in his ear.
In this case—
"Watch my gestures later."
——Don’t blame him for taking action.
"Open the door, I want to go in." Xia Yan stopped at the door of the laboratory.
The staff members paused in their writing. Without receiving orders from President Bin, no one dared to move.
Jing Wenbin walked slowly to the operating table, pressed his index finger on a red button, and moved it slowly along the edge.
He raised his eyes, and there was no emotion in his dark and gloomy pupils, like a cold-blooded crocodile lurking in the mud, ready to pounce.
This is his true self that he has been hiding.
He looked at Xia Yan, gradually increasing the pressure with his fingers, and the key began to sink.
Squeak——
The door in front of Xia Yan made an air sound, slid smoothly to the side, and she walked in.
As the door closed automatically, there was also the sound of the lock being locked.
Without looking back, she walked step by step towards Chen Juqing, who was lying in the center of the huge machine and was forced to stay alive.
Even though Xia Yan had seen many humans who had been tortured beyond recognition, he couldn't help but gasp at this moment - Chen Juqing looked like a shriveled frog with its limbs tied and tubes inserted all over its body.
He probably never got up from the bed from the moment he was pushed into the laboratory. His body was spread out with his limbs restrained by magnetic straps.
The strap had been pulled to the last buttonhole, but it still hung loosely on the bony wrists. The tendons in the skeleton-like hands were sunken, and the blood vessels were extremely weak.
It no longer had any binding effect, and Chen Juqing no longer had the strength to struggle.
All the muscles in his body had degenerated and shriveled, and his skin, which had lost its elasticity and was mixed with lumps of flesh, hung loosely on his bones and piled on the bed sheets.
Xia Yan took a deep breath and gradually focused his eyes on his face.
"well..."
It was as if his jaw had been removed. Not only could his mouth not close, but it also collapsed inward strangely, like a wrinkled orange peel.
"Chen Juqing." Xia Yan called him softly.
Chen Juqing's thin eyelids covered his eyeballs, his breathing was very shallow, and the electrocardiogram monitor next to him was beeping regularly.
"Chen Juqing!" she raised her voice.
His eyeballs moved.
Xia Yan avoided the wires and tubes, walked up to his ear, and whispered softly, "Do you want to be reborn?"
The beeping sound paused for a second and then began to intensify.
"Do you want revenge?"
His eyeballs moved faster, his eyelids fluttering as if trying to open them.
"Zhi—what are you talking to him about? Why is he reacting?!" Jing Wenbin's voice came from all directions.
Xia Yan looked at the glass at the end of the bed, but saw an identical version of himself, bending over and whispering next to the ear of the experimental subject. The machine behind him was like a monster with bared fangs and claws, extending its tentacles, trying to devour both of them.
The monitoring station is right behind.
Xia Yan smiled at Jing Wenbin behind the mirror and continued softly, "I can help you be reborn. If you are willing, open your eyes and confirm. Countdown, 3."
Chen Juqing had obviously regained consciousness and was sobbing intermittently.
“2.”
His eyelids were trembling violently, and his eyeballs were rolling wildly!
From the loudspeaker: "I still owe you an injection, give him some food!"
“1——”
Chen Juqing suddenly opened his eyelids, and the last ray of compelling light burst out from his cloudy and yellow pupils.
The machine above his head started moving, and a tube three fingers thick stretched out instantly, passing through his wrinkled lips, tearing the ulcer, and going straight into his stomach. Then a stream of yellow liquid gushed out, and his stomach gradually swelled.
The countdown of Chen Juqing's death appeared in front of Xia Yan's eyes. There were only 15 seconds. She had to wait patiently until the number became 1. This was the most critical moment for completing the hidden mission.
In order to avoid mistakes in the mission——
"What did you feed him?"
Jing Wenbin said proudly, "This is great stuff. It's all made of beaten rice, meat, and precious egg yolks. It has very high nutritional value. Boss Xia, I promised you that as long as you bring Jing Yimai here, I'll give you one milliliter of injection for free."
As expected, the golden liquid seeped out of the needle-tipped tube on the right side of the filter at a faster rate. With a plop, it fell into the test tube, splashing out golden traces.
The tube retracts very slowly after feeding.
When the tube was removed, the lips sank back into the mouth, and the remaining soup in the tube fell into the mouth slowly, without a drop left.
Chen Juqing's eyes were filled with pain, and the color of death stretched out like tentacles reaching towards his pupils like a cocoon.
The ECG monitor's screen displayed chaotic, undulating lines, and a rapid, chaotic beeping sound, like a tire rolling down a hill, finally bouncing onto the asphalt road, swaying from side to side.
Xia Yan stretched her neck and reached out her hand to Chen Juqing's head. At the moment the countdown reached 1, a narrow crack in space and time suddenly appeared. She quickly pulled out his light soul and stuffed it in.
In a trance, she seemed to see something shooting out from her soul, and the gap was now fleeting.
——Fall down.
[The hidden mission has been completed, and the rewards will be settled soon...]
【Please draw a prize】
A large turntable that I had used before appeared in front of me. It was covered with fog and the words on it could not be seen clearly.
Xia Yan was stunned for a second.
"Didn't you say you'd give me a bicycle? Why is there a raffle?"
Although she was puzzled, she put her hand on it honestly and twisted it hard.
The colorful colors rotated rapidly, driving the pointer to move counterclockwise. Soon, it stopped and pointed to red.
After the fog cleared, seven bold words on the turntable came into view - a mountain bike.
Emotional colors are just decoration...
【Mountain bikes have been sent, please check】
Xia Yan was very satisfied when he saw the extra cars in the system grid.
She clapped her hands, her gaze involuntarily drifting to the bed. Chen Juqing maintained a stiff posture with his chin raised, turning into a corpse. In this world, he was already dead.
I hope he can cherish the opportunity. If he performs well, he may be able to be promoted to a tasker.
"I have handed the person over to you. Our cooperation ends here."
Jing Wenbin smiled and said, "Goodbye, Boss Xia."
The floor suddenly shifted, and more than a dozen pitch-black cylindrical objects were lifted up. After spinning several times, they simultaneously aimed in Xia Yan's direction...
