Tian Mingbo walked out of the laboratory while making a phone call.
They did not notice Ye Jing hiding in the shadows.
Just as Tian Mingbo reached the elevator entrance, the elevator doors opened, and two staff members from relevant departments stepped out.
Under normal circumstances, Ye Jing should have jumped out and reported the bald man at this time.
However, his experience of living under the control of human traffickers for more than ten years instilled in him a wary personality that he did not easily trust anyone, and he ultimately chose to remain inactive.
Just then, someone in the elevator asked, "Where's Tang Rui?"
Tian Mingbo glanced back at the lab: "It's all taken care of now. This isn't the time to worry about that. Tang Xin just called. I managed to brush her off, but given how shrewd she is, she'll probably realize something's wrong soon enough. Our plan will probably have to be brought forward."
The moment Tian Mingbo turned around, Ye Jing shrank further into the shadows.
Good grief, it turns out there are many bad guys in this place besides that bald guy.
Thankfully, he didn't go out.
What is certain now is that Tang Rui is not a bad person. If she were a bad person, then this bald man would not have needed to deal with her.
After Ye Jing waited for Tian Mingbo and two other people to enter the elevator, he slipped into the laboratory and closed the laboratory door.
He had previously witnessed human traffickers taking unconscious people back to their homes and waking them up with cold water.
So he first dragged Tang Rui out of the cabinet, then took a towel, soaked it in the tap water from the lab bench, wrung it out, and splashed the water on Tang Rui's face.
Tang Rui was instantly sobered up after being splashed with water on her face.
Upon seeing Ye Jing, she instantly understood what was going on.
When she fainted and couldn't move, she felt something drilling into her neck. She had studied virus carriers and knew that the black collar around their necks controlled their brain nerves through nano-sound waves. She knew that what was drilling into her neck was the nano-sound waves that could control her.
To avoid being controlled, she forcefully tore at the collar around her neck.
When Tang Rui pulled off the collar, she only felt a numbness in the spot on her neck where Tian Mingbo had injected her, and the numbness was spreading rapidly. She knew this was the new zombie virus taking effect. Even without the collar, she would soon lose her nature and become a bloodthirsty monster. She looked at Ye Jing in a panic: "Vaccine, quickly give me the vaccine..."
Ye Jing noticed that Tang Rui's eyes were gradually turning bloodshot.
When she tore open the collar, her once smooth neck was covered with countless red dots. Fine threads seeping from these dots formed numerous bloody lines that connected to the black collar.
These threads are so fine that they are invisible to the naked eye if they weren't covered in blood.
The scene was horrifying to watch.
But Ye Jing, who had seen many storms during his abduction, quickly calmed down.
He had seen this black collar on the necks of virus carriers before. Now that it was on Tang Rui's neck, it meant that Tang Rui had also been injected with the virus, but she was not fully infected yet, which was why she asked him for a vaccine.
He only had four doses of the vaccine left; if he gave them to Tang Rui, there would only be three left.
One of the four of them will be unable to receive the vaccine.
Without hesitation, Ye Jing decisively took out a vaccine and injected it into Tang Rui's neck. He thought that once Tang Rui recovered, he could continue to make vaccines for them. There would be as many as needed. Even if Tang Rui didn't recover, he would still have three doses. He, Gu Bei, and Ya Ya would have enough. As for that crybaby Xu Ruoyu, let her become a zombie. Maybe it would be more peaceful after she became a zombie.
After the vaccine was injected into Tang Rui's neck.
Her bloodshot eyes gradually cleared.
Currently, the medication she is receiving seems to be effectively combating the virus in her body. However, the nano-sonic waves inside the collar around her neck seem to be alive. Even after she has removed the collar, the nano-sonic waves continue to penetrate her neck, as if trying to put the collar back on.
Ye Jing watched in horror.
He hadn't attended nine years of compulsory education and knew nothing about the high-tech stuff they were talking about, but he knew that if those blood-stained threads went in, it would kill Tang Rui.
In desperation, he grabbed the lab scissors and started haphazardly cutting the thin wires.
However, nanomaterials are harder than steel.
Even though they are now just thin lines that are not easily visible to the naked eye, scissors still cannot cut them.
Seeing that he couldn't cut the thin thread, Ye Jing simply reached out and pulled it.
Those nano-sonic rays, which had just entered Tang Rui's neck and hadn't yet penetrated her brain, had already been pulled out in considerable numbers. Now, with Ye Jing's help, they were pulled out directly.
As she was pulled out, a large chunk of skin and flesh was also torn off Tang Rui's neck. Clutching her bleeding neck, she collapsed to the ground, exhausted from the pain, and said, "Thank you."
The nano-sonic waves that had been pulled off wrapped around Ye Jing's arm and pierced his veins, causing him to cry out in pain, "Holy crap, is this thing alive?"
Ye Jing's words reminded Tang Rui.
These nanosound waves are not alive; they simply act according to instructions issued by the collar.
Thinking of this, Tang Rui struggled to her feet, grabbed a stool from the lab, and smashed it hard against the black collar, turning it into dust.
As the black collar shattered, the nano-sonic waves that had been drilling into Ye Jing's arm also stopped moving, and Ye Jing easily ripped them off with a gentle pull.
After doing all this, Tang Rui collapsed heavily to the ground again.
Seeing the bloodstains on Tang Rui's white coat, Ye Jing asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Tang Rui tore off a piece of her clothes and used it to bandage her neck. She then shook her head. The injury on her neck was somewhat serious, but not fatal.
When these black collars were confiscated, the hidden cameras and locators inside had already been removed and destroyed. The traitors connected to J City could not see what was happening inside the laboratory.
As things stand, she and Ye Jing are safe.
Tang Rui's biggest worry right now is her younger sister. Those traitors must have already told the people in J City about her sister's whereabouts. Her cell phone was taken by Tian Mingbo, so she can only call her sister using a landline now.
She stood up, using the counter for support, walked to the phone on her desk, and dialed her sister's number: "Answer the phone, answer the phone now!"
But when she tried calling her sister several times, the caller ID showed that the phone was out of service.
She was extremely anxious: "How could this happen?"
Ye Jing stepped forward: "Is it possible that your communications department blocked the signal?"
Tang Rui: "Why would the people in the communications department do this?"
Ye Jing: "There are so many bad people in your group, it's not surprising that there's one more person from the communications department, is it?"
