Chapter 260
The following days were the most boring days for Xingchuan and Ming in the research institute.
Bronx was busy testing his blood composition and had no time to take care of him. The other staff members of the institute were all doing their own jobs. Apart from arranging three meals a day and daily necessities for him, they did not bother him at all, as if they had received an order in advance not to come into contact with him too much.
Xingchuan and Ming first spent a few days to adjust their weak bodies, and then began to try to get information from the busy staff around them, but unfortunately all failed. Not only did these people not dare to have too much contact with them, even if there were some who were outspoken and talkative, they themselves did not know how much valuable intelligence they had.
Hoshikawa and Ming stayed alone in the empty lounge of the research institute. He was full of confidence in his plan at the beginning, but now he is so bored that he wants to bring out all the aliases to chat with him. Unfortunately, Baifu has been in a coma, Kagano Satoshi has been busy making fake artificial intelligence in an attempt to deceive the organization, and Nishizono Tadahiko has also started to get involved in more and more public security work, and he is very busy all day long.
Xingchuan and Ming had no choice but to lie on the bed and open the comic book, reading it over and over again, and then idly posting comic book forums. This kind of decadent state would never have appeared in Xingchuan and Ming before.
However, it was also the silence during this period that finally gave him time to discover from the details of the comics that while he was busy calculating the organization, Conan had indeed begun to actively contact more Red Team characters and was intentionally mobilizing everyone to unite to fight against the organization.
This process is destined to be long, after all, there are still too many things to weigh and negotiate behind them. But this is indeed a good start, allowing Ming Tianxin to finally see the hope of the Red Side uniting to jointly eliminate the organization.
After waiting for a few more days, when Xingchuan and Ming were almost getting impatient, the head of the research team, Bronx, finally showed up. He brought a stack of test reports and someone that Xingchuan and Ming absolutely did not expect - Baifu, the organization's experimental subject and part-time experimenter.
Baifu? How is that possible! When did he wake up? Why didn't I feel anything at all?
Xingchuan and Ming immediately called Baifu through the consciousness link. However, as before, Baifu on the other side did not respond at all, and his consciousness was still completely closed.
Before there was no news about Baifu, Xingchuan and Ming were still thinking about each other's situation. But now when they really saw Baifu's face, Xingchuan and Ming immediately became alert.
Baifu is not really awake. So what is this "Baifu" in front of him? Is it another boring test by Bermode, or is the organization suppressing Baifu's original consciousness through some special method, and thus controlling Baifu's body through other methods?
If it was before, when they knew nothing about the organization's ambitions, Xingchuan and Ming would not have such a bizarre idea. However, as they got to know the organization more and more, Xingchuan and Ming began to think more involuntarily.
Baifu in front of him was no different from usual, with a cold expression, pale face, and a somewhat weak body. His blood-red eyes were vaguely defensive of everything he saw. But when he looked at Xingchuan and Ming, a barely perceptible tenderness flashed in his eyes.
However, Xingchuan and Ming just glanced casually in the direction of Baifu as if they saw a stranger, without showing any special reaction, and then focused their attention on Bronx.
He looked into Bronx's eyes with expectation, and his expression was obviously depressed. He was like any person who was extremely anxious after being treated coldly for a long time. Every strand of his hair revealed his dependence on and awe of Bronx.
"Mr. Bronx, I have rested for so many days and now I feel very good. I think I can serve the organization at any time. What can I do for you?"
Bronx did not answer immediately, but pointed at Baifu behind him with a smile and said to Xingchuan and Ming:
"Aren't you very interested in this senior? I brought him here to you, and he will teach you how to conduct experimental research. What should I do? I finally saw him in person. Do you have anything to say to him?"
Xingchuan Heming looked at Baifu with a confused look, and then showed a surprised expression as if he was frightened by the indifference of a stranger, and then quickly retracted it. But when he looked at Baifu again, his movements revealed a subtle defensive posture. He looked at Bronx in confusion, pursed his lips, and asked hesitantly:
"This... Mr. Bronx, I have never met him and I am not interested in him. Excuse me, who is this person?"
Bronx looked at Xingchuan and Ming: "You don't know? Last time you asked me about Baifu's situation, how come you forgot it so quickly?"
"Bai Fu?" Xingchuan Heming recalled for a moment, then immediately revealed an expression of sudden enlightenment and said, "Oh! I remember now, you are the senior named Bai Fu."
Xingchuan Heming did not avoid Baifu on purpose, nor did he pretend to be uninterested in him. Instead, he bowed to Baifu and introduced himself naturally with the attitude of a junior to a senior. However, it was obvious from the beginning to the end that he had never met Baifu before, and his treatment of Baifu was completely in line with that of an ordinary person who had not integrated into the organization and suddenly met a senior at work with the same politeness.
Bronx looked at Xingchuan and Ming's performance with satisfaction, and then exchanged a glance with the "Baifu" who came with him. "Baifu" nodded, and suddenly stretched out his hand and tore off his face. As a layer of the mask with the wig was torn off, a familiar face of Mello, a member of the organization that Xingchuan and Ming had met not long ago, was revealed.
Xingchuan and Ming took a step back in surprise, pointed at Melo, and didn't know how to react. After a while, they finally said:
"Isn't your code name 'Merlot'? Why did you suddenly change it to 'Baifu'? Are you actually also a member of the research team?"
Melo's expression still carried the sickly paleness of a man who had not yet recovered from a serious injury. Hearing this, he habitually wanted to sneer, but as soon as the corners of his mouth curled up, he immediately suppressed it. He looked deeply at Xingchuan and Ming, his eyes were unclear, but he restrained all his emotions in an instant and simply replied:
"I'm a member of the action team. I've just been here before."
Xingchuan and Ming were moved. Mello had been in the research group before. Could he have been a test subject here like Baifu? No wonder he was able to recover so quickly even though he was seriously injured. I didn't expect that he was also related to the organization's human experiments.
Bronx just laughed and said nonchalantly in his aristocratic and gorgeous tone:
"Hahaha, my lovely Kang Ting, this is just a joke. You won't mind, right? But don't worry, I won't go back on my word. In a few days, I will let Baifu come to teach you personally how to be a qualified laboratory assistant. Since you can inherit your mother's talent and memory, you will definitely become an excellent laboratory assistant soon."
