28 The House Where People Are Chased (I)
◎Help! A house is chasing me!◎
Zhu Ning opened the folder and had to admit, Liu Niannian had something. This was internal information. It was probably a plan for attracting investment, circulated specifically to internal shareholders.
Yongsheng Pharmaceutical's "Excellent Body Plan" Book
The "Excellent Body Project"? Is this the official name for the hot pot restaurant owner's experiment?

At the same time as opening the folder, the system prompts:
[Long-term side quest: Searching for the truth behind the death. Key clues have been found, and the search progress is 30%]
The task progress bar moved, which was a key clue to his own death.
Zhu Ning read the plan carefully. In December of the third year of the new calendar, not long after the radiation, humans had just built a high wall to resist the outside world, and the Human Level Plan was implemented within the Federation.
Humans are divided into five levels through genetic screening. This seemingly unequal regulation, to a certain extent, guarantees the overall interests of the Federation.
But at the same time, the Federation officially abandoned the fifth-class citizens, and most of them were forced to go to the 103rd District garbage dump to be scrapped.
Once classified as a fifth-class citizen, it is almost equivalent to being sentenced to death. You can even check the official system to see how many years you have left to live.
Some people gave up on themselves and began to squander their lives. During that period, federal crime rates soared. For a long time, the term "fifth-class citizen" was synonymous with criminals, and in fact, this prejudice still exists today.
But some people are unwilling to accept their fate and actively try to save themselves. This is when business opportunities arise, and Yongsheng Pharmaceutical sees them.
They took advantage of the situation and launched the "Excellent Body Plan", an experimental project targeting defective products, which has been going on for nearly eighty years.
This experiment is almost as long as the history of the federation, and is essentially rooted in the entire federal system. Over the past seventy years, the "Excellent Body Project" has grown larger and more high-profile.
From the initial underground experiments to the semi-public recruitment of experimental subjects, more and more defective products voluntarily participated in the "Excellent Body Plan".
This document does not contain much information, and is followed by some investment-attracting rhetoric, such as this is a high-quality project, the annual profit is as high as X, and the future is bright.
The last page of the project book also contained the slogan: "Yongsheng Pharmaceutical, change your genes, create your future."
That’s all.
Without any case studies, Zhu Ning couldn't even infer how far the "Excellent Body Plan" had progressed.
Zhu Ning got the keywords and searched with his secondary brain. There was no relevant information about the Excellent Body Plan on the Internet. It was probably deleted as soon as it was posted.
Zhu Ning had no choice but to ask Liu Niannian: "How were the experimental subjects recruited?"
Liu Niannian replied immediately, "As far as I know, it's not completely public. Defective individuals will purchase specific medications to prolong their lives, or register when they receive genetic injections. Yongsheng Pharmaceuticals will then send targeted recruitment information to these individuals."
Very precise marketing, targeting only defective products.
Just like the recruitment methods of some evil cults, they cannot recruit directly on public platforms and must recruit offline point-to-point.
And the ones selected are the ones who are most interested. Many defective products are either poor or very "Buddhist" and just wait to die.
Those who are willing to inject genetic drugs and buy medicines prove that they have a strong desire to survive.
At this time, you suddenly receive a trial recruitment plan from a large pharmaceutical company. This pharmaceutical company has the most advanced technology and it is free. Most people will grab the last straw at this time.
Unexpectedly, the life-saving straw turned out to be just a straw, and the defective products turned into pollutants. No, it is possible that some of the successful defective products have already become superpowers.
Where do the successful experimental subjects go? For example, what if the hot pot restaurant owner did not become pollutants after participating in the experiment, but instead became a sane supernatural being?
He certainly won't continue to run a hot pot restaurant, but will choose a safer place. They have gone from being fifth-class citizens to sixth-class citizens. What department can absorb them?
Where else can sixth-class citizens go except to join some chaebol families?
Cleaning center.
Zhu Ning's pupils suddenly contracted. The place chosen by the psychic must be the cleaning center. In this department, psychics can use their abilities openly and have the official federal laboratory medical department to provide them with services.
If the successful experimental subjects still have close ties with Yongsheng Pharmaceutical, would their entry into the cleaning center be considered an "infiltration"?
Humanity has built walls to protect against the outside world, but not against the inside.
Does the Federation know that Yongsheng Pharmaceutical has been operating for so long? Does the Cleansing Center know about it?
Wait, Zhu Ning suddenly thought.
This might be the reason why Prometheus issued the "Grave Post," and part of the Cleansing Center's power has been moved underground. Is this Prometheus's self-rescue from the "Excellent Body Project"?
Lest the cleaning center be completely infiltrated?
Zhu Ning felt a chill down his spine at this speculation. How many people in the cleaning center belonged to Yongsheng Pharmaceutical? How many of the executives were? Was it Fang Ying? Was it the head of the cleaning department?
What does Yongsheng Pharmaceutical want to do?
If so, then her original owner had already participated in the "Excellent Body Project"?
It didn't make sense. She was missing a lot of core information. Furthermore, there was no evidence, just Zhu Ning's guess based on a piece of information.
Fang Ying said that all the employees of the cleaning center have been screened by Prometheus, so it is impossible for him not to know which ones have problems.
Is the selection method for sixth-class citizens different? If this is a puzzle, Zhu Ning has barely glimpsed a corner.
Zhu Ning asked: "No experimental data?"
Liu Niannian: "I can't reach it."
She was just a chaebol daughter who was doing nothing but living her life to the fullest. Liu Niannian did ask to see the laboratory. Yongsheng Pharmaceutical actually agreed, but the things she saw were just tricks to fool outsiders, and Liu Niannian had no access to the core data.
Indeed, if core data were so easy to access, Yongsheng Pharmaceutical would have been dead long ago. If Zhu Ning wanted access, he could sign up and directly enter the "Excellent Body Plan."
But she hasn't found the path yet.
Zhu Ning: "Thank you."
Liu Niannian's family must have some business dealings with Yongsheng Pharmaceutical. Anything that Liu Niannian, a spoiled young lady, could have access to must have been known with the tacit consent of both parties.
This means that this information is actually just the tip of the iceberg for Yongsheng Pharmaceutical. It seems that Liu Niannian can only access this much, and she has to dig out the rest herself.
Liu Niannian: "When do we go on the mission?"
Zhu Ning: “…”
How did he actually become my younger brother? I can't figure out the train of thought of a chaebol daughter.
In Liu Niannian's mind, Zhu Ning is definitely a big shot. After returning home, she asked the psychic at home. Since he can make the polluted area commit suicide, maybe Zhu Ning himself is a psychic.
Her ability should be psychic, similar to mental suggestion or manipulation. Although people with special abilities are sixth-class citizens, they are definitely talents of the Federation. Not only the Federation, but also major financial groups are actively recruiting them.
But Zhu Ning doesn't seem to belong to any organization. This boss might be undercover in the cleaning center, trying to uncover a shocking secret. She doesn't even care much about money and has some lofty ideals.
It sounds exciting.
Liu Niannian's curiosity is growing, and her family has always allowed her to do whatever she wants as long as it does not harm the family's interests. Liu Niannian gives Zhu Ning a harmless document. If she can gain her trust, it will definitely be a very cost-effective deal.
Zhu Ning asked: "Why are you helping me?"
Liu Niannian said sincerely: "I feel that I have found the direction of my life. I want to sweep garbage like you in the future."
Zhu Ning, who inexplicably became an idol: "?"
Does this girl think she's in a movie?
Liu Niannian: "If you need any tasks, you can call me."
Zhu Ning could feel Liu Niannian working hard to sell the product even through the screen.
Zhu Ning maintained his boss persona: "Wait for my notification."
Zhu Ning turned off her secondary brain. This matter was much more complicated than she had thought, and she hadn't yet figured out a clear idea.
Zhu Ning was changing in the locker room, using the closet door to block out the documents she was looking at. She subconsciously tried to close the door, but suddenly, she froze.
Without warning, she met a pair of dark eyes, who stared at her gravely for an unknown amount of time.
"Captain?" Zhu Ning came back to his senses.
Xu Meng: "What are you looking at? You're so engrossed that you didn't respond when I called you just now."
Xu Meng's locker was right next to Zhu Ning's. She was packing some personal belongings and asked as she did so.
Xu Meng's movements were extremely natural. Zhu Ning didn't know if it was because of preconceived notions, but she always felt that Xu Meng's every move exuded a sense of weirdness.
Ever since she read the Excellent Body Plan, she felt that the cleaning center was not safe.
…
After saying goodbye to Xu Meng, Zhu Ning returned to the hive and sat in deep thought facing a wrinkled wall.
Zhu Ning hung a whiteboard on the wrinkled wall and wrote down the words: Yongsheng Pharmaceutical, Cleaning Center, and Prometheus.
Write under Yongsheng Pharmaceutical: Excellent Body Plan.
Under Prometheus write: Grave post.
There is a question mark under the cleaning center.
What exactly are these three forces? How do they stand in a three-way balance of power? And what role do I play?
Following the clues, she never expected to find a large pharmaceutical company. This Yongsheng Pharmaceutical was likely the culprit that caused Zhu Ning's death.
I fell into the trap.
The system and Prometheus had lured Zhu Ning into danger. Now that she was trapped, it would be difficult for her to escape. Her original body had died once, and it was likely she would die again.
The person who killed her was either the Cleaning Center or the Eternal Life Pharmaceuticals, both of which were behemoths that Zhu Ning could not afford to offend.
Only now did she realize how adorable the zombies she had encountered in her past life were. They were innocent, cute, and brainless, and could be eliminated with just a single headshot. If she got bored, she could even "chat" with the zombies.
The wasteland world is really a bummer.
The situation is not very clear, but it is also very clear. If you don't want to be assassinated again, you must improve your strength. If you want to improve your strength quickly, you must continue to complete tasks.
Moreover, the system and Prometheus seemed to be leading Zhu Ning away. The mission was not random and was highly correlated with Yongsheng Pharmaceutical.
If Zhu Ning was pushed before, this time she made her own choice.
The system is already bound anyway, Prometheus has already set his sights on her, and Eternal Life Pharmaceuticals may be preparing to make a move behind the scenes. If she takes the initiative at this time, there may be a glimmer of hope.
I hope this mission can trigger the alienation panel.
At midnight, Zhu Ning opened the Cleaning Center Forum. The screen in front of him was blurry, and a gray post appeared on the originally fancy forum.
The title is "Help! A house is chasing me!"
House? How can a house chase a person?
This time, the "grave post" was in the form of a video. Zhu Ning clicked to play it. In the video, a pale, haggard woman appeared. She looked to be in her thirties or forties, but her mental state was extremely poor.
Her background is a bedroom, with a bed behind her.
"I'm sorry, I don't know who to talk to, and I don't know what to do. I decided to share my experience, please help me."
The woman seemed to have not slept well for several days. She rubbed her face before continuing to face the camera: "My name is Huang Yaruo, I'm 35 years old, and I encountered a supernatural event."
Supernatural event?
