A cold atmosphere permeated the empty laboratory, and cold lights mercilessly fell on every corner, making the already silent environment even more eerie and terrifying.
A young girl lay quietly on the hospital bed.
Her body was tightly bound by layers of ropes, unable to move at all.
Ai Yu's eyes were blank, like two deep black holes, as if she had lost her soul. Her beautiful black hair was now disheveled, casually draped over her shoulders, forming a sharp contrast with her pale face.
His lips were also bloodless, and he was wearing a loose hospital gown.
The entire laboratory was unusually quiet; even the sound of a pin drop could be heard clearly. Only Ai Yu's breathing echoed in the stillness.
Time seemed to have frozen, long and endless.
Finally, two figures slowly stepped in. They were dressed in clean white coats, and there were still food residues hanging from the corners of their mouths. As soon as they entered, they walked straight to the bedside and stared down at Ai Yu lying on the bed.
One of them narrowed his eyes slightly, forming a thin slit, and a strange smile appeared in his voice. "Ai Yu, how can you not eat? Relying solely on nutrient transfusions is far from enough. If this continues, even as a Moon Envoy, your digestive system will be plagued by various diseases, and malnutrition and electrolyte imbalances are inevitable. Moreover, your brain will always mistakenly believe that your body is hungry."
Ai Yu's distinctive pair of eyes, with their sclera, always exuded a sense of coldness and alienation, making her seem out of tune with the world around her. She rolled her eyes slightly, gazing at the white light overhead, and said calmly, "I'll be out of here in less than a week."
The academician raised his lips slightly, revealing a scornful smile. He said in a tone full of sarcasm: "This place is heavily guarded, with strict defense lines and monitoring systems on every floor. How can you be so sure that you can escape?
If you're smart, just eat the nutritious meal we've prepared for you and actively cooperate with our research. This might save you some suffering." The academician looked at her coldly, as if waiting for her to make a wise choice.
Ai Yu didn't even bother to give him a glance and closed his eyes again.
Since there is nothing to talk about, why torture each other?

Li Yuzhen kept an eye on his account from time to time, expecting new messages to pop up.
Suddenly, a strange message that he had never seen before appeared in front of him, which instantly made him perk up and he couldn't wait to click on it to check it out.
However, after clicking on this message, instead of displaying text or pictures as usual, a video program was directly triggered.
In the blink of an eye, Jian Kaiheng's handsome face filled the entire screen. A hint of a smile hung on the corner of his mouth. He raised his eyebrows slightly at Li Yuzhen and said, "Teacher Li, I will convey the angel's reply."
Li Yuzhen nodded slightly and said, "Okay, go ahead."
Jian Kaiheng then held up three fingers and said seriously, "The angel has put forward three conditions. First, hand over the 000 next to you to the angel. Second, you must not sacrifice yourself easily. When the angel needs you, you must be available at a moment's notice. You must not die in battle easily, and you must not revert to your identity as a Qimen Moon Envoy. As for the last point... exactly 100,000!"
After saying this, he deliberately winked at the camera.
"You angels...are you so cheap?"
Jian Kaiheng: ...
Endure, endure, he endured!
These guys are so hard to please!
After successfully making Jian Kaiheng feel deflated, Li Yuzhen continued, "Why do you want 000? What do you want to do?"
"Don't worry, we will not endanger her personal safety. On the contrary, we will provide the best medical services and properly arrange her accommodation and daily life." However, he changed the subject and added, "As for whether you believe what I say, that depends on your own judgment.
A dedicated person will sign a contract with you later. If a one-time payment of 100,000 yuan is difficult for you, we can also accept installment payments. Of course, no interest will be charged. How do you do it?
"I can accept points two and three, but the first is absolutely impossible. I'm neither 000 nor her legal guardian, and I have no right to interfere with her personal freedom. This matter is completely unmanageable. If you truly want 000 to join the Angels, you should discuss it with her in person. Talking to me will be futile."
After a moment's thought, Jian Kaiheng replied, "Hmm... that's fine. Then let's increase the third condition by another 100,000."
"no problem."
Jian Kaiheng nodded with satisfaction, then clapped his hands and said, "Excellent. That's a straightforward decision. After get off work, please come to Angel Company to sign the contract. I'll email you the specific address."
This rescue operation is scheduled to begin after 6:00 PM today, and we anticipate that your student, Ai Yu, will be safely delivered to you within three working days at most. Furthermore, Angel's senior management will, in accordance with your request, negotiate with Qimen's senior management to ensure Ai Yu's full freedom in the future.
"good."
After hanging up the video, Jian Kaiheng leaned back in his chair. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he tutted his lips and couldn't help but sigh, "Lovesickness is really bad."
