Chapter 370: Framed!
After receiving a lecture from Lou Shanchuan, Su Mei returned to the laboratory.
Although there was only an hour left before lunch, Su Mei still took out her equipment and continued with the experiment she had done the day before.
It was not until noon that she put on her mask and went out to get food.
Lou Shanchuan asked Su Mei to wear a mask, and he did not allow Su Mei to tell anyone else about the itchy powder incident.
Although the weather is hot and it is uncomfortable to wear a mask, according to Su Mei, the discomfort will only last for a few days.
Lou Shanchuan asked Su Mei to keep the matter to herself, so that it would not be spread out and cause more trouble.
There were a few people queuing up in the cafeteria to get their meals.
I heard that people eating were divided into several groups, and they had to queue very far in line, and only two people were allowed to sit at a table for six during meals.
The cafeteria was silent. Everyone ate quietly. After eating, they put on their masks and left quickly.
The institute continued to be under martial law. When Su Mei returned to the laboratory after lunch, she happened to meet a temporary team coming for inspection.
This team was formed temporarily, carrying some unknown instruments and conducting tests in various laboratories.
"Sorry to bother you, President Su, we are just conducting a routine inspection." The leader said to Su Mei while wearing a gas mask.
Su Mei said nothing and let the people in generously: "I understand, you can look around as you like."
All those people walked in and explored every location in the laboratory, leaving no corner untouched.
Su Mei on the side waited quietly, thinking that they should be here soon.
When they were out, she continued with her experiment.
"Beep, beep!" The instrument on the back of a team member suddenly made a few crisp sounds, and the man immediately shouted, "Captain, we found something!"
What did they find? Su Mei frowned. She saw a team member raise his hand and hold up a tube of green liquid.
What the hell? Su Mei was so confused. What on earth was this?
She swore she had never put the green liquid in a test tube before.
The leading team leader quickly walked up to the team member, took the liquid, shook it, took out a pipette to suck up a drop, and found an electron microscope on the spot to observe it.
Ten seconds later, the team member raised his head with a serious expression. He looked at Su Mei who was standing at the door and asked seriously: "President Su, please explain why there are coronavirus fungi in your laboratory?"
"What is it?" Su walked in with a frown on her face. She took a close look at the test tube and then shook her head. "I don't admit it. This is mine!"
"President Su, this is not something we can control. Anyway, the test tube was indeed found here with you, so you have to come with us. Also, you have to cooperate in opening the safe so that we can do further inspection." The leader looked at Su Mei coldly.
Su Mei was completely puzzled. She asked, "Can you tell me what that thing you just talked about is?"
"I don't know whether President Su is pretending not to understand or really doesn't understand. The coronavirus is the bacteria that caused the infectious disease at the institute, and we have found it in your laboratory.
If there were no experienced doctors to point out the coronavirus infection in time, it would have spread widely and many people would have died.
"Could you please open your safe now, President Su?" the leader said, extending his hand and making a gesture of invitation to Su Mei.
Su Mei's intuition told her that there must be something in the safe that she didn't expect. She was also very curious about what was inside, so she said the password she had set: "199208."
After the leader pressed a few numbers, the combination lock popped open.
The leader took out a thick stack of information from inside.
When Su Mei saw the information, her eyes jumped.
Yesterday she had burned all the documents in the safe that were contaminated with drug powder.
So the things in the safe were put there by someone else, someone wanted to frame her.
It's so funny! She was the one who did it, and she destroyed the evidence, but she didn't expect that someone would splash the dirty water that originally belonged to her on her.
But this basin of water is much dirtier than the original one.
She just made an Itchy Fan, but someone took advantage of it to frame her and said she was going to kill many people.
"Please, President Su, come with us and cooperate with the investigation." The leader politely made a gesture of invitation to Su Mei.
Before Su Mei responded, a team member found a culture dish in the sterile operating room inside the laboratory.
Su Mei couldn't help laughing when she saw the man bringing the culture dish over. She looked at the leader and said, "Are you sure you want me to go with you? If it turns out that this matter is not my fault, I can apply to arrest you on suspicion of treason."
"That will be a matter for the future, but for now, we need to trouble Dean Su to cooperate with our investigation. After all, this kind of bacteria is an infectious pathogen that the institute has expressly prohibited from research.
We are only investigating according to the regulations. We hope that President Su will understand and forgive us."
"I understand, I understand. I will go with you." Su Mei walked out calmly.
A group of people took Su Mei away in a hurry.
She followed the men to the back hill and was then taken into a black car.
The car took her to a yard with a copper-clad iron wall.
There were many small houses in the yard, and someone picked one at random and locked Su Mei in it.
One level takes ten hours.
No one came to see her during these ten hours.
The world is eerily quiet.
Su Mei was almost drowsy, and just when she closed her eyes and began to doze off, the door was opened from the outside.
Two men in black suits pushed the door open and walked into the room.
One of the women with short hair threw her notebook and pen on the table opposite Su Mei. She kicked the stool away and sat down coolly, saying, "Tell the truth!"
"What to confess?" Su Mei asked.
The man also sat down with the woman. He stared at Su Mei with his eyes like a sharp eagle and said in a cold voice:
"You know what to say."
"I don't know!" Su Mei spread her hands, "Tell me, what should I say?"
"You're not going to tell it, are you?" The woman stared at Su Mei impatiently.
Su Mei couldn't help herself and said, "No, are you sick? If you are, get treatment!"
"You will say it. We will treat you leniently if you confess and severely if you resist. No one in our place would be so stubborn as to refuse to tell the truth. Go and take off her watch." The man said to the woman next to him.
Soon the woman stood up, took Su Mei's watch, opened the door and walked out with the man.
Without a watch, Su Mei quickly lost her concept of time.
She was so sleepy that she wanted to sleep, but every time she tried to fall asleep, there would be a loud knocking sound on the iron wall in the room.
Su Mei understood that this was a deliberate attempt to blur her time and prevent her from sleeping, in an attempt to force her to confess by beating her.
Isn't it said that the dean's identity is lame?
So now he is locked up in such an unclear manner, and even cannot contact the outside world. What's going on?
