Chapter 153 Excellent Opportunity
Ji Liang probably really wanted to enter Yan Chu's laboratory, and the next day he couldn't wait to hand over the experimental report he had written all night.
Yan Chu took the experimental report and read it page by page calmly.
In the part involving theoretical derivation, Yan Chu couldn't quite understand the densely packed formulas and calculations, but her eyes were quickly attracted by the practical records on the last page.
The area where the experimental process should have been recorded in detail was largely blacked out, with only a few blurry words visible at the edge: "72h", "38.5℃" and a set of dosage parameters that had been repeatedly revised.
The most striking thing was the scribbled words at the bottom of the page, the ink smearing from the force of the writing:
11/3 The first human experiment (self-test) failed.
Phenomenon: Continuous high fever, accompanied by periodic confusion.
Speculated causes: ① Abnormalities caused by uneven adaptation; ② Insufficient neurotransmitter inhibition; ③…
The third one only had a number written on it before it was completely crossed out with ink.
Behind the third reason that came to an abrupt end, there were several unnatural indentations on the paper, like the indentations left by the pen tip hovering for a long time.
When Yan Chu's eyes swept over those traces, he noticed that the remnants of the next torn page were faintly visible on the back of the report.
She closed the report in her hand and looked up at Ji Liang: "Why are these last few pages marked like this?"
Ji Liang was stunned for a moment, then laughed awkwardly, "I was writing in the second half of the night, and I was a little confused. I made some mistakes, so I made a lot of corrections."
After a pause, he asked again, "How about... I rewrite it?"
Yan Chu's gaze fell on his bracelet, which emitted a faint red light.
Ji Liang's words were mixed with lies.
Yan Chu pointed at the experimental record with his fingertips: "You wrote here that the first human experiment failed. What about the person who failed? How is it going?"
Ji Liang thought for a moment and said, "After his fever subsided, I continued to observe him for a few days. There was no change in his abilities, and no other abnormalities in his body, so I let him go."
"Is he still alive now?" Yan Chu asked.
Ji Liang was startled, his expression growing heavy. “He should be… gone.”
Yan Chu's eyes narrowed slightly: "In other words, you didn't see him the night the base fell?"
Ji Liang gave a bitter laugh. "At that time, I didn't have time to care about others. I was lucky to escape successfully. There were nearly 100,000 people in the Tomorrow Base, and only a few hundred survived. The vast majority died in the base."
Yan Chu looked at his bracelet, which was green.
"Can I ask that person's name?" She arched her brows. "The first person in history to eat crab deserves to be remembered. If your experiment succeeds one day, he will also be a hero."
Ji Liang lowered his head, and the silver hair mixed in with his black hair fell from his forehead, covering his eyes.
"Yuan Lin...his name is Yuan Lin."
Yan Chu nodded seriously and put the report in his hand into the drawer. "Leave this report here with me. If you need any special equipment or instruments for your experiment, you can also write a list for me and I will apply to the central base."
Ji Liang was originally very happy when he heard the previous words, but when he heard that Yan Chu wanted to "apply to the central base", his eyes changed immediately.
He hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Can I keep this experiment of mine secret from the central base?"
He then immediately added: "I only need the most basic equipment and devices. I don't have any special needs."
Yan Chu's eyes darkened slightly. Ji Liang didn't want the central base to know?
"Why?" she asked.
"After all, the experiment hasn't been successful yet..." Ji Liang's eyes wandered. "It won't be too late to report it when there are results."
Yan Chu frowned: "Do you think the central base will not support your experiment?"
"That's not the case. My research is definitely beneficial to human survival. They won't disagree."
Ji Liang said this confidently, and then couldn't help but sigh.
"The more people who know about it, the less pressure I have. This way I can really focus on doing the experiment without being disturbed by the outside world."
Yan Chu originally thought that Ji Liang was making an excuse. She lowered her eyes and took a look. The bracelet was a stable green color without any change.
No way, Ji Liang’s reason is actually true?
Central Base really knew nothing about this.
In other words, the commander of Tomorrow Base was actually convinced by such a lame excuse?
For a moment, it was hard to tell whether Ji Liang, who made this request, was more ridiculous, or the commander of the tomorrow base, who agreed to conceal it, was more outrageous.
Since she wanted to get to the bottom of it, she had to act it out to the end.
"Okay, I promise you." Yan Chu said with a smile.
When Ji Liang left the office, the smile on Yan Chu's face immediately turned cold.
Gu Qinyuan walked out from the inner room and looked at Yan Chu: "Do you think that it was the person whose experiment failed who mutated into a monster?"
"That's right," Yan Chu lowered his eyes and thought, "But just because Ji Liang didn't see Yuan Lin doesn't mean that no one else has seen him. There are so many survivors who escaped from the base tomorrow, maybe someone else knows him."
She rolled her eyes and said to Gu Qinyuan, "Go and call Wu Yingzhou for me."
Gu Qinyuan nodded, and his figure disappeared from the office in an instant.
**
Yue Xueer was boredly flipping through the documents on Wu Yingzhou's desk when she suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the corridor.
She hurriedly stuffed the document back to its place, and just as she stood up, she ran into Gu Qinyuan who pushed the door open.
Yue Xueer's breathing suddenly stopped.
Gu Qinyuan glanced at the empty desk, then turned to ask Yue Xueer, "Where's Wu Yingzhou?"
"There was a problem with the water filtration system just now, and he was called away..." Yue Xueer answered subconsciously.
Gu Qinyuan nodded calmly: "When he comes back, ask him to go to Yan Chu."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
Yue Xueer's eyes changed, and she took two steps at a time, rushing over before Gu Qinyuan and closing the office door with one hand.
Gu Qinyuan is elusive and when he appears occasionally he is with Yan Chu, so it is difficult to even speak to him.
But now they are alone, a man and a woman, it is a perfect opportunity to be alone!
Yue Xueer put her hands behind her back and quietly locked the office door.
Gu Qinyuan paused, his dark eyes narrowed slightly: "What do you mean?"
The office was so quiet that even the hum of the fan could be heard clearly.
Yue Xueer raised her red lips slightly, raised her hand to tuck the long hair on the side of her face behind her ear, revealing the carefully trimmed side neck line.
"Gu Qinyuan, you have such an outstanding girlfriend like Commander Yan. It must be very stressful, right?"
