Chapter 12
Li Hao looked at them, took off the bag he was carrying and put it on the ground, and also took off the wizard robe. Then he went straight into the room and sat on the sofa.
I have to say that the government's preparations are really comprehensive. After all, this is her first world, and she might be carrying some special bacteria or something.
"Please come with us and check it out." said the man in white protective clothing.
"I'm not going. I'm at home. If you need any tests, you can do them now. I'm happy with blood draws and sampling." Li Hao has been thinking about what would happen if he came back these past two days.
She had anticipated the current situation, but there was absolutely no way she would follow these people.
"Please cooperate with our work." The staff member said and wanted to come over to pull Li Hao.
"You can take me away, but I'm telling you this: if you take me away, don't expect any cooperation from me in the future." Li Hao pulled a bottle of potion from his pocket and raised his hand. "You should know how important this potion is, but I'm telling you, if you try to arrest me or anything like that, I'll throw it away."
Director Luo, who had been waiting outside, heard some very bad news: the time traveler Li Hao was completely uncooperative and even threatened with potions. He sighed, as expected, the other party had lost trust in them.
"Send the other things to the base first." There was indeed only one potion in the bag that Li Hao gave at the beginning.
Now Li Hao is holding a bottle of medicine in his hand, and Director Luo can see that the value of this medicine is extremely important.
The people at the Academy of Sciences have been waiting for this for a long time. If the potion can have even half the effect they saw in the video, it will be a great discovery that will shock the world.
"Let her stay at home first. Let the examination be done at home first." Director Luo had already reported the news of Li Hao's return. In fact, they came here just to take Li Hao away for disinfection and physical examination.
Li Hao watched as the people in white protective suits received the message and whispered something to her after returning. The leader said to her, "We also hope you can cooperate. Please do not take any other actions for the time being. We need to examine and disinfect you here. Is this all right with you?"
After cleaning up from head to toe, drawing a few tubes of blood, and cutting some hair, the people in protective suits finally left. However, Li Hao also knew that with their posture, the neighbors nearby might have been replaced long ago.
The potions and many small things brought back were sent to the base in the mountains for research, including the bottle containing the small insect, but the small insect has disappeared. It seems that no living creatures can be brought back.
There are more and more people in the base now. Since the day Li Hao came back, more and more people have been brought to the base.
With no live broadcast, Lin Lan, Wang Bing and Li Maoxue were all sitting at the base with nothing to do.
They also don't know what will happen to them next.
"I heard that Li Hao refused to come." Because of her good personality, Lin Lan has become close friends with several female researchers in the base.
The scientists knew more about the identities of the three of them than they did about their identities. A researcher she knew was given a few drops of blood.
It is said that this blood contains strong vitality, which seems to be related to the potion that Shalia fed Li Hao.
Now the base has established many research departments, and you can see the crazy looks of the scientists every day.
"We don't know what's the point of being here." Lin Lan said uncomfortably. Their leisurely state formed a sharp contrast with the busyness in the base.
"Let's wait for Director Luo to make his arrangements." Li Xuemao was open-minded, because he knew that Director Luo was still the leader of the base, so they wouldn't be kicked out. But he was worried about one thing.
Should he have stopped Wang Bing at that time?
Director Luo's eyes were red because he was very busy during this period. Every thing Li Hao brought back was worth a lot of money. Those scientists came to him every day to make trouble, hoping that he could allocate more things to him.
Director Luo was incredibly busy, fighting for Li Hao's rights. He'd been running around since the third day of the livestream, finally establishing a base before Li Hao returned. He was doing his best to prevent the spread of the incident.
Dealing with scientists was easy, but dealing with the other group was not so simple. The people at the base extracted a small half bottle of the drugs Li Hao brought with him, ran experiments to confirm their effectiveness and lack of hidden dangers, and then Director Luo specifically handed them over to the higher-ups.
He even knew that the bottle of medicine had been used by someone above him, on a highly respected person who provided food for the people and whose health had been very poor recently.
The effect of the potion is far more powerful than they imagined. It can even cure congenital defects or various hidden injuries left in the body.
Many people knew that Li Hao had another bottle of potion. Even though it had been reserved, many people still came to him hoping that he would save a few drops. There were also many important people who dedicated their lives to it.
To put it simply, although the outside world does not know what kind of project Luo Guokang is researching, the news that he has a magical potion has spread.
Fortunately, Director Luo didn't have to worry about it for long. The higher authorities gave him higher authority and confidentiality. Those who were harassing Director Luo disappeared, presumably because they had received a warning.
This department had become a top-tier institution. Every scientist who came here signed a confidentiality agreement, and the entire base's defenses were completely revamped. With guards stationed every three steps, not even a mosquito could get in.
Although the higher-ups still decided to let Director Luo be in charge of the entire project because of his previous contributions, they also sent two big guys to assist him.
These things had nothing to do with Li Hao, because Director Luo was busy with the base's structure, which gave Li Hao several days of free time.
After she came back, she stayed at home with peace of mind. Although she was not allowed to go out, she could still contact her relatives and friends. She asked the boy who lived next door to buy her food and drinks every day.
Li Hao was away for 10 days, and the government was also helping to cover for her, so even though she was missing for these days, her relatives and friends didn't notice. Perhaps the only person who knew something was her field control sister Lan.
After talking to his mother, Li Hao lay on the sofa and watched videos to make up for the regret of not playing with any electronic products for the past 10 days.
"Ah, it's still comfortable here." Enjoying the air conditioning and eating watermelon, Li Hao and Ge You lay on the sofa, watching Harry Potter on a huge projection screen.
After visiting the magical world once, she began to understand the difference between fairy tales for children and reality, but this did not last long.
Hearing the knock on the door, Li Hao paused the TV and sighed. It seemed that what was coming was bound to come.
"Hello, I'm Luo Guokang, you can call me Director Luo." It was Luo Guokang who came to negotiate with Li Hao this time, and there were several people behind him.
Li Hao turned sideways and motioned them to come in.
"Are you here to get this bottle of potion? Here you go." Li Hao handed over the potion he had been playing with in his hand.
"Yes, we are here to get medicine." Director Luo said calmly.
The people across from them looked nervous as they watched the potion unfold before them. They had all heard rumors about this potion. It was said that Elder Yuan drank half a bottle of it, and his health had returned to the level of ten years ago. And that was just half a bottle; if he drank a whole one, the effects would be self-evident.
"Thank you for the medicine," Director Luo said, taking the medicine and handing it to the person behind him. The other person took out a box and carefully put the medicine in it.
After the medicine was sent away, Director Luo continued to speak to Li Hao. "Comrade Li Hao, can we chat for a while, just the two of us?"
Director Luo gestured for the others to leave. Li Hao was a little surprised by his polite gesture.
"You...can." Li Hao was about to say to kick him out, but took it back. After hesitating for a moment, he agreed to talk to Director Luo alone.
After the others left, Li Hao spoke first.
"I'm sorry, it's impossible for me to travel through time again. I have handed over this potion and brought everything I could. I have also explained everything clearly from the time I traveled through time to now. As for what kind of person I can research out, that's not something a small game anchor like me can do." Li Hao said a lot of words in one breath.
"Thank you, on behalf of the government and myself, thank you for everything you have done. Thank you for trusting us." Director Luo listened to Li Hao's words patiently, then stood up and bowed to Li Hao while speaking.
Seeing Director Luo like this and hearing his words of thanks, Li Hao blinked, a wave of sadness welling up inside her. But she remained firm in her choice.
"I'm very happy here. I don't want those grand adventures. I just want to make some money to buy a house and live a good life from now on. Besides, I want to be with my parents." Li Hao shook his head and refused.
"But this time, I'm not here to order you, but to plead with you. Asking you to sacrifice yourself would be unfair. We respect everyone's rights and obligations, but sacrificing one's own life is not an option. Regardless, I want to thank you for your previous efforts."
Director Luo spoke sincerely, and this was his true feelings. No matter what, how could he put such pressure on a girl who was only in her twenties?
It was also due to his negligence that the other party suffered a lot of harm in that world.
"..." Li Hao remained silent. The other party's words were very sincere. If it was a strong request or something, Li Hao had a way to deal with it, which was to refuse to cooperate.
"I am talking to you alone this time because I don't want to put too much pressure on you. In any case, the things you brought back have been of great use to the government. Please see if you have any requirements. We can fully cooperate to meet them." Director Luo did not force Li Hao to make a choice. He gave Li Hao space at the beginning and it is the same now.
"By the way... when I was in the live broadcast room before, you promised me that you would help me resume the live broadcast. I hope you can do what you said." Li Hao said after hesitating for a moment.
"Well, sure, but your previous live broadcast room may not be usable. We will open a new one for you." Director Luo nodded and said straightforwardly.
Director Luo knew that he might not be able to persuade the other party for the time being. After all, her previous experience of time travel might not have been so good.
After sending Director Luo out, Li Hao couldn't help but call her parents because they had mentioned her parents. After a brief chat with her mother, her mood improved a bit.
Although time travel sounds exciting, it's like Ye Gong's love for dragons. Rather than living in the safe and comfortable modern society, traveling to a chaotic and dangerous place is something that only people who are desperate or confused would want to do. Li Hao doesn't think she is the kind of person who likes adventure, and she doesn't want to leave her parents.
Director Luo took another bottle of medicine and handed it over quickly.
Director Luo didn't actually say that he helped Li Hao withstand the pressure from above.
"Li Hao is a hero. Even if Li Hao doesn't want to in the end, I don't want anyone to go to her and use tricks to make her agree." Director Luo's face immediately became serious when he said this.
