Jiang Zheyu then slowly went into the bathroom sink to wash her face.
After washing her face in the bathroom, she finally felt much better.
She came out of the restroom: "Captain Shan, it's done!"
Dan Xun saw the obvious happiness on the female's face.
His deep purple eyes flickered slightly, and the corners of his mouth curved up slightly, but he quickly returned to his indifferent expression.
Jiang Zheyu wondered if she was seeing things. She thought she just saw Shan Xun smile?
Without asking any further questions, she followed Shan Xun to the door of an office.
Dan Xun pushed open the door to an office and said directly, "Come quickly and check if the female has been parasitized by the Zerg."
"Okay." A familiar, clear voice rang out.
Jiang Zheyu paused, then peeked out from behind Shan Xun and saw a familiar face.
He wore a white lab coat, gold-rimmed glasses, had short, silvery hair, and a pair of clear, snow-white eyes.
Isn't this Li Xingbai, her former attending physician?
Jiang Zheyu was especially happy to finally see someone he recognized.
"Dr. Li!" Jiang Zheyu waved to Li Xingbai in greeting.
Li Xingbai was not surprised to see Jiang Zheyu, because everyone in the research institute knew that a female had come here, and Li Xingbai knew that the female was Jiang Zheyu.
"Long time no see, Miss Jiang." Li Xingbai also greeted Jiang Zheyu politely.
"You two know each other?" Shan Xun frowned.
"Yes, I served as Miss Jiang's attending physician for a period of time before." Li Xingbai nodded.
Jiang Zheyu walked over and asked, "Dr. Li, what brings you here?"
"They've been transferred here." Li Xingbai looked at Jiang Zheyu, "He'll be both a doctor and a researcher."
"Check if he has any Zerg parasites." Shan Xun stood at the door without coming in, only speaking coldly.
Li Xingbai nodded, then looked at Jiang Zheyu: "Miss Jiang, please come this way with me."
Jiang Zheyu followed.
The machine's detection was very simple. A beam of light scanned her back and forth, and finally Li Xingbai nodded: "No Zerg mental power was detected. Miss Jiang, you have not been parasitized by the Zerg."
"Okay." Jiang Zheyu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
"Let's go." Shan Xun remained standing outside the door, looking at Jiang Zheyu.
Jiang Zheyu, who had originally wanted to catch up with Li Xingbai, hesitated for a moment before slowly walking over.
"Dr. Li, I'll see you again next time." Jiang Zheyu turned back to Li Xingbai before leaving and spoke.
Li Xingbai paused for a moment, then nodded and replied, "Okay."
He remembered that the female used to like him, and even fought with other females for him.
But later, the female's attention was gradually drawn to the other orcs, and she stopped bothering him.
He did feel relieved and much more at ease at that time.
But later the females became more and more dazzling.
His gaze was gradually drawn to her, but he was just that kind of casual person; he believed in fate and individual happiness.
He is a somewhat aloof person by nature.
I never actively pursue anyone, and I'm not a passionate person to begin with.
If no one actively pursues him, then missing out is missing out.
Jiang Zheyu followed Shan Xun outside. She actually had something she wanted to ask Shan Xun, which was why she came out.
"Shan Xun, you should know that the Star Emperor sent me here to treat the orcs whose mental strength has been damaged. So when should I begin? And where are those orcs?" Jiang Zheyu looked up at him.
Perhaps because of what happened in the restroom, Jiang Zheyu wasn't as afraid of him anymore.
“I was just about to tell you this.” Shan Xun glanced at her. “Are you ready? If you are, I’ll take you there.”
"Yes, yes, I'm ready, I'm ready," Jiang Zheyu quickly replied.
"Come with me." Shan Xun walked forward.
Jiang Zheyu followed him.
He wondered if it was because of Jiang Zheyu's reminder not long ago, but now he was walking at the same speed as Jiang Zheyu.
Jiang Zheyu thought to herself that this person was actually not bad; it was just that she was prejudiced against him because of his fierce appearance.
Shan Xun led Jiang Zheyu to the first basement level.
There were guards along the way.
They stopped in front of an experimental door.
"Single team." An orc leaned slightly forward to greet Shan Xun.
Shan Xun nodded and said, "Open the door."
The orc responded and opened the experimental door.
Shan Xun went in first, followed by Jiang Zheyu.
As far as the eye could see, there were rows of beds, and on those beds lay rows of orcs.
The orcs lay peacefully on the bed with their eyes closed, looking much like corpses.
The incandescent light shone down, making everything exceptionally clear.
Jiang Zheyu swallowed hard; this place felt like a morgue.
Did they really not come to the wrong place?
Jiang Zheyu noticed that there were about a hundred people in the laboratory.
"Captain Shan, are these orcs still alive?" Jiang Zheyu subconsciously moved closer to Shan Xun. "Why does this place look so much like a morgue?"
Dan Xun simply explained: "These are all orcs whose mental strength has been damaged. Because they no longer have any ability to fight, they are all lying here as research subjects."
He added, "They didn't die, and they won't wake up, because the research institute has people giving them nutrient solutions and sleeping potions every day. After all, if they woke up, the mentally disturbed orcs would cause a lot of accidents, so this is the easiest way to manage them."
Moreover, these people were originally soldiers who were meant to serve the empire.
The body will be left to the research institute for study after death.
Jiang Zheyu was silent for a moment. These people were not dead, but they were sleeping here. But it was still better than being awake and suffering from mental trauma.
She didn't know either.
"Now that I've healed their mental state, what are the Empire's plans for them?" Jiang Zheyu glanced at Shan Xun.
Dan Xun simply said, "The orcs whose mental strength has been healed will be sent back to the Imperial Capital Star for unified rehabilitation. Those who pass will remain in the Imperial Army, while those who fail will be discharged from the Imperial Army."
"Okay." Jiang Zheyu nodded.
But then she asked, "How many labs like this are there?"
“There are 10 such laboratories in total.” Shan Xun frowned. “There are 1,000 people in them.”
Jiang Zheyu knew that this was only the number of people at one of the Empire's research bases.
It's hard to say how many other research bases there are, or how many people work there.
