After Lin Dan left, Yang Huatong inspected outside the city wall before returning to the base. Since the underground laboratory is top secret in the base and has a very high level of protection, no one without an identification badge is allowed to enter. Even if you get in, it is extremely difficult to meet Dr. Xiao, the person in charge. He locks himself in the laboratory every day to conduct research and never contacts the outside world unless necessary.
Yang Huatong cleared level after level and after several inspections, he finally reached the negative tenth floor.
"Dr. Xiao is doing experiments and is not seeing any visitors at the moment." A female researcher said coldly.
"But I have something to bring him." Yang Huatong raised his hand and asked the female researcher to check the glass box. He emphasized, "This is a gift from Lin Dan to the doctor. It is all Lin Dan's credit that the doctor can come to our base smoothly. They have come all the way west, and they must have a good relationship. Can you go in and tell the doctor?"
Lin Dan had carefully instructed that the glass box must be delivered before dawn, so Yang Huatong must meet Dr. Xiao tonight. Although he is the leader of the base, he has handed over the management of the laboratory to the doctor. Here, the doctor's words are the final word, and he is just an uninvited guest.
The female researcher sneered, "Do you know how many years I have been with the doctor? When he was a freshman, I was his senior. We studied under the same advisor, did experiments together, and took on projects together. No one knows him better than me. He only cares about research, not social skills. He would never get along with a woman."
"Isn't Dr. Xiao a human being?" Yang Huatong frowned and said, "As long as he is a human being, he will know the fickleness of human nature. I have seen with my own eyes how Lin Dan took care of him. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is meticulous. What's so strange about him being a little special to Lin Dan? Hey, I have a bad temper. What qualifications do you have to refuse the gift that Lin Dan gave to the doctor on his behalf? I must see the doctor today, get out of the way!"
"Then you can try it!" The female researcher was not afraid at all. She took out a remote control and pressed it. The metal ceiling opened, and several laser emitters stretched out and aimed at Yang Huatong's eyebrows.
Seeing that the two gangs were about to fight, the door of the laboratory was opened from the inside, and Xiao Junlin asked coldly: "What happened?"
The female researcher quickly apologized and recounted what had happened. She knew too well what a cold and heartless person Dr. Xiao was. When he was in school, there were even more women trying to get close to him than there are now, but they didn't even have the chance to get close to him. She was giving Yang Huatong face by letting him leave directly. If she let Dr. Xiao handle it, this person would definitely be put on the institute's blacklist and would never be able to come in again. The broken box would also be thrown into the trash can and destroyed.
However, she was wrong this time. Xiao Junlin's expression relaxed slightly and he asked, "Did Lin Dan ask you to send this?"
"Yes, yes, yes, she asked me to deliver it to you before dawn." Yang Huatong nodded quickly.
Xiao Junlin subconsciously reached out to take it, and then he seemed to think of something. He was stunned for a moment, then pointed to a nearby operating table and said, "Put it on it."
Yang Huatong couldn't guess what he meant. He wondered if he would waste Lin Dan's feelings, and he couldn't help looking a little embarrassed. The female researcher looked at the doctor in surprise, as if she didn't know him at all.
Xiao Junlin explained for the first time: "I'll disinfect the box."
"Oh! Okay, it's my duty." Yang Huatong was relieved and put the box on the operating table. He also reminded: "Doctor, there is a note on it. Don't miss it."
Xiao Junlin said nothing, but turned on the nozzles around the operating table to disinfect the box. Seeing him reaching out to take the unknown object, the female researcher stopped him with a sharp voice: "Wait, Doctor, according to the procedure, anything given to you by outsiders needs to be inspected."
"What the hell! The box is transparent and filled with water, can't you see it?" Yang Huatong was really annoyed by these people and said, "Do you suspect that Lin Dan would poison Dr. Xiao? Where were you when she was guarding the base? Where were you when she was busy treating the wounded? Don't use your narrow-minded minds to guess Lin Dan's mind, okay?"
When the base was in danger, the first thing these researchers asked for was to prepare a plane to take them away, and they never asked for help. Of course, this is human nature, and Yang Huatong can understand it. But after the battle, he hoped to select a few researchers who understand medicine to go to the tent area to check on the wounded, but was rejected by these people. If the doctor's research did not concern the future of mankind, he would have lost his temper long ago.
The female researcher was so angry that smoke came out of her head. She sneered and said, "Do you think Lin Dan is a good person? A few days ago, she bribed a security guard of the institute and asked about the doctor's daily life in a roundabout way. What do you think she is going to do? You can't judge a person by his appearance. I advise Stationmaster Yang to pay more attention to him. God knows if some of them are spies sent by other bases."
The researchers who gathered around naturally sided with their colleague and immediately supported him, "I think Lin Dan is also a little strange. We asked her for the prescriptions for the insect repellent and attractant, but she flatly refused. If she is really as selfless as you say, she should hand over the prescriptions and let the base control them."
Yang Huatong was so angry that he laughed. He said sarcastically, "Should we give it to the base or to you? To be honest, that thing originally belonged to Lin Dan. She can keep it if she wants to. She can give it to whoever she wants. No one has the right to snatch it from her. Yes, her medicine is indeed horrible, but rather than letting you cowards take it away, I feel more at ease leaving it in her hands because she has a conscience, a responsibility, and she will never abandon her compatriots and run away at a critical moment."
Several researchers were angry and wanted to argue again, but they heard Xiao Junlin say slowly: "Lin Dan asked someone to inquire about my daily life?" He looked at the female researcher with a deep gaze.
The female researcher was secretly delighted, thinking that the doctor must be angry, and hurriedly said, "Yes, just three days ago, she bribed a security guard on the negative tenth floor to inquire about your movements. If I hadn't been alert enough, I would have quickly discovered that there was something wrong with that person. Maybe she would have even found out our secrets. Doctor, don't worry, I have fired all the relevant personnel. Our institute will never keep these people with ulterior motives."
Xiao Junlin opened the glass box and continued to ask: "What did she inquire about specifically?"
"She asked you what you did after you came back that day, whether you showed any abnormal behavior, whether you vomited or felt uncomfortable, etc. She also said that if you feel unwell, you must ask the security guard to notify her in time. She knows medicine and can treat illnesses. I think she is just looking for an opportunity to get close to you. I don't know what she is thinking."
Xiao Junlin nodded, seemingly nonchalant, but he couldn't help but chuckle, "Bring back all those who were fired," he instructed, "In the future, tell Lin Dan whatever she wants to ask, don't hide it."
These words were undoubtedly like a huge slap in the face of the female researcher. She screamed "Doctor" in surprise, but lost the ability to speak under Xiao Junlin's cold gaze.
Yang Huatong, who was feeling unhappy, burst into laughter and said proudly, "Look, I told you that the relationship between the doctor and Lin Dan was special. What's wrong with friends giving each other gifts? What's wrong with asking each other about their recent situation? Is it necessary to think so complicatedly?"
Xiao Junlin walked into the laboratory holding the glass box and said coldly, "Thank you, Stationmaster Yang, for the gift. You can leave now."
Yang Huatong choked, and before he could ask about the development of the vaccine, he was asked to leave by two psychics. I don’t know how Dr. Xiao managed this research institute, but it only took him half a month to tame all the masters of superpowers he sent. It was to the point where no one dared to go against his will. You know, these people were his personal soldiers before they entered the institute!
After entering the laboratory, Xiao Junlin immediately picked up the note on the glass box and checked it, only to see two simple words written on it - Thank you.
No more? that's all? Xiao Junlin couldn't help but frowned.
His right-hand man walked in and said carefully, "Doctor, I don't think Sister Huang did anything wrong. Her starting point was to protect you. Your research work is of great significance to China and even to all mankind. We must investigate the people around you. What is in this box? Is it really water? Are there any unknown toxins and bacteria? I suggest you give it to us to test the ingredients."
"No need to test, this is disinfectant." Xiao Junlin stared straight at the glass box, as if trying to see through it and see Lin Dan's true intention.
"Disinfectant?" The assistant was stunned for a while before showing a surprised expression. She was completely conquered by Lin Danqing's unique imagination. Although those who do scientific research don't understand the ways of the world, they know that no one would send disinfectant as a gift. Even though the doctor has severe mysophobia, he will not lack this thing.
"What does she mean? To please him?" the assistant asked dryly.
Xiao Junlin shook his head, staring at the glass box as if he was staring at the biggest problem of the century. He never tried to guess what other people were thinking, because those people were basically transparent in his eyes. Only Lin Dan was something he could never guess or understand.
The assistant was still worried and was about to use a straw to suck out some liquid for testing, but he saw that the water in the box suddenly rippled for no reason, then slowly boiled and froze into ice in an instant. The slightly cold white air mixed with a hint of disinfectant blew towards him, causing the assistant to hold his breath involuntarily and making Xiao Junlin show an expression of enjoyment. This is the purest and best-smelling perfume in the world.
"Why is it frozen?" The assistant was shocked by this sudden change! She is a fire-type mutant and the doctor is an ordinary person. Apart from the two of them, there is no third living thing in the laboratory. Logically speaking, these disinfectants will never change their form!
The door of the laboratory was not closed. Hearing the screams, all the researchers nearby ran over and looked at the glass box in astonishment.
