Chapter 260 Are you threatening me with the safety of my relatives?
"It's okay, it will be alright in the end."
Qiao Lan smiled at Yin Wanying.
As soon as Yin Wanying met Qiao Lan's eyes, she felt much more relieved.
Those smiling eyes were like a lake reflecting the stars in the sky, brilliant and beautiful, sweeping away the slight annoyance and nervousness she had felt because she couldn't communicate with Xiao Tang.
Qiao Lan always makes her feel better instantly.
When they first met, she inexplicably liked this chubby little girl.
The two of them kept holding hands. Yin Wanying pinched Qiao Lan's palm and smiled.
"Yes, it will be fine."
It's always easier to restore consciousness to a living person than to revive a dead body. Xiao Tang is getting better. We can't communicate with him now, but we will definitely be able to communicate in the future.
Yin Wanying stayed with Qiao Lan at the lab for nearly ten hours. After confirming that Xiao Tang's condition had stabilized and the experiment had moved on to the next phase, the testing and maintenance period, the two left the lab.
However, they did not leave the entire underground building, but stayed there so that they could rush to the scene at any time to deal with emergencies.
They stayed in the experimenters' dormitory, a four-person room. Xiao Liu, who was in charge of reception, apologized and said that there were no single rooms at the moment, so the two of them had to squeeze in with the female experimenter who was already in the room.
"It's okay, it's fine now. We are the ones who disturbed you."
Neither Qiao Lan nor Yin Wanying minded.
This is an official core experimental institution with quite complete living facilities. The conditions of the four-person dormitory are much better than those outside. Although the room is small, it is clean and tidy, with beds, tables and chairs. Each person is also provided with a set of bedding, towels, toothbrushes and other basic living supplies.
Qiao Lan had heard from old man Wei Jianshe before that the authorities hoped to arrange such accommodation for everyone in the major survivor bases in the future, so that everyone could live better, eat more, and no longer be displaced and in danger of their lives.
However, for now, that was just a hope and aspiration, far from being achieved. For the time being, it could only guarantee the basic living conditions of key departments. Even the residences of their senior leaders were not as good as the conditions of this laboratory.
Besides this core laboratory, there are several others, scattered across different regions. I'm told that the material and security conditions are similar. The higher-ups have gone to great lengths to ensure the researchers' research and living conditions are optimal, ensuring they produce results, seize crucial opportunities in this era of great mutations, and stay ahead of the world, avoiding being exploited.
After checking in, Qiao Lan and Yin Wanying first had a good sleep to restore their strength, and then used the crystal core to meditate for a while to consolidate their supernatural power realm.
Before the practice was over, the door of the room opened and a middle-aged woman with short hair and a tired face walked in.
Qiao Lan put away the crystal core, ended his training early, and greeted the man. He was about forty or fifty years old, wearing the uniform of an experimenter. The name Zhou Ping was written on the work ID hanging on his chest. Qiao Lan knew that this was the person who originally lived in the room.
It turned out that there was one person living in this four-person room, and that was her.
"You are the family members of the experimenters staying here, right? The dorm manager told me. Please make yourselves at home. I'm tired from work and want to sleep. You'd better keep your noise down so as not to wake me up. Thank you."
Zhou Ping said a few words lightly, took off her shoes, shook out the quilt and lay down on the bed. Soon she began to snore softly and fell into a sound sleep.
"...Looks like he's really tired."
Qiao Lan was met with the other party's cold face when she was full of enthusiasm, but she didn't think the other party was impolite. The experimenters worked at a very high intensity, and only by getting a good rest could they maintain their work energy.
She just felt that this female lab technician named Zhou Ping seemed a little familiar...
I always feel like I have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember where.
However, there are many people in the world who look alike. Maybe it was because he had met someone with a similar appearance before. Qiao Lan didn't care about this and continued to practice while holding the crystal core.
The newly improved spatial perception and new skills needed to be consolidated. Qiao Lan was immersed in the accumulation and understanding of energy, and several hours passed in a flash.
Five o'clock in the afternoon was the agreed daily visiting time, and she and Yin Wanying both finished absorbing the crystal core.
In the room, my roommate Zhou Ping was still sleeping, snoring constantly, drooling from the corners of her mouth, wetting the pillowcase below her.
So Qiao Lan and the other person tiptoed out of the room quietly so as not to disturb her.
Walk through the corridor, take the elevator, and go to the key experimental area on the upper floor.
As soon as they got off the elevator, a uniformed security guard standing outside asked them, "Who is Qiao Lan? General Zhao is looking for you."
"I am."
Qiao Lan quickly replied. She knew that General Zhao was the head of the laboratory.
So the security guard took the two to an office in the experimental area and said to Yin Wanying, "Wait outside. The general didn't look for you."
"Be careful, I feel strong dissatisfaction and hostility." Yin Wanying quietly communicated with her mind.
Qiao Lan pushed the door open and entered the office, and immediately discovered that the two uniformed security guards standing at the door were of high rank, at least level four.
Behind the desk by the wall sat a middle-aged man in a dark green uniform, with a square head and face and a dignified look.
"Are you Qiao Lan?" he asked as soon as they met.
Qiao Lan smiled politely: "Yes, are you General Zhao? What can I do for you?"
Zhao Bing said sullenly, "Qian Huijia is a spy, a death row inmate. You forbade his execution and instead sent him back to his original dormitory to rest. Who gave you the guts to do that? What if he harmed the labmates in the same room, or sabotaged them? Have you considered the consequences? You're the family member of the experimenter, so you'd better understand your position. Don't interfere with lab management, and don't violate the rules. Do you understand? This won't happen again. I've already had that spy taken away. You can leave now. Don't cause any more trouble from now on, and don't disrupt the experimenter's drug testing progress."
He spoke harshly and with a stern tone, and his demeanor was majestic.
Qiao Lan put away his smile, remained silent for a moment, and looked directly at the other person.
"General Zhao may be too busy and doesn't know that the money was given to me by Chief Wei to take home. I will do whatever I want with it. Can you bring him back to me? I still need him."
The question was asked politely, but the tone was rude.
The other party was too hostile, and no matter how used to flattering Qiao Lan was, he would not flatter him.
Yesterday she asked Xiao Liu to let the money go home and settle it in the men's dormitory, and take it away when she left. Unexpectedly, this man surnamed Zhao arrested the person quietly.
"I'll say it again, understand your own identity. You want to deal with a death row prisoner who has committed a serious crime? What a joke. You are a family member, and your person is still lying in the laboratory." General Zhao's face became even uglier.
Qiao Lan asked, "Are you threatening me with the safety of my relatives?"
The other person looked at her with a sneer, as if he were looking at an ignorant child.
It should be a real threat, but not too strong.
Qiao Lan picked up the Beijing internal communicator that Wei Jianshe gave her.
"General Zhao, it seems I may have to tell Grandpa Wei about what you said."
Zhao Bing was so angry that he punched the table and looked at the two security guards at the door.
