Chapter 079 Mad Scientist 11
Zhang Wenxuan’s words couldn’t be clearer, Shen Ke understood them, and so did Yu Hui and Chen Lixing.
In the Hengyun Mountain base, Shen Ke turned his neck stiffly and looked steadily at Jian Ziyan, who still had a calm expression.
What does this mean?
It means that when faced with a life or death choice, Jian Ziyan chose him.
Most people in the world have selfish desires, let alone when it comes to life and death.
He sacrificed his own chance to survive and chose to save him.
Jian Ziyan has no emotions, but what he does is clearly more human than those who have emotions.
Yu Hui was also looking at Jian Ziyan. He felt that his initial intuition was indeed correct.
Giving another person a chance to survive is such a noble act, but Jian Ziyan didn't even hesitate and never even mentioned it. Even the person who was rescued didn't know about it.
Yu Hui looked at Chen Ke who was always looking at Jian Ziyan, and a faint envy arose in his heart.
He originally knew that he was very far away from Jian Ziyan's life. He didn't know that Jian Ziyan was born without emotions. He just felt that he was so pure that it was hard to imagine that he would be contaminated by the worldly fireworks and care about another person.
But now, he knew what Jian Ziyan looked like when he cared about another person.
It is a persistence that is willing to give up even one's life, and it is a precious emotion that is hard to obtain.
Everyone felt mixed emotions and fell into silence for a moment, with only Zhang Wenxuan's voice still flowing.
"Based on that message, I can only conclude that you are probably poisoned. As for the specific situation, I don't know." Zhang Wenxuan sighed heavily, "Xiao Ke, I heard from Li Xing that there seemed to be some friction between you and Xiao Yan. I can't get involved in the affairs of you young people, but I just hope that no matter what... there will be no misunderstandings." This! Work! By!
"Thank you for telling me, teacher." Shen Ke said hoarsely, "I know now."
Jian Ziyan seemed to have no idea about other people's complicated psychology. He didn't pay attention to this at all. Instead, he pondered for a moment and asked, "Teacher, are you sure I mentioned Xu Guanglei to you?"
"I'm sure." Zhang Wenxuan's voice suddenly faded. "In fact, Guanglei...had changed a long time ago. I was soft-hearted and wanted to trust him again, but I didn't expect that I would hurt him instead."
Jian Ziyan: "Teacher, what you mean is, is there any hidden secret?"
"After I decided to hand over the research project on the giant beast to you, Guanglei came to see me alone." Zhang Wenxuan said, "He asked me, we are both my students, but just because he entered the school two years later than you, should he be suppressed by you?"
"He actually questioned the teacher?" Shen Ke's attention was drawn and he showed a strong disgust.
"I advised him that these things are not just about qualifications, but also about comprehensive factors. His experience is not enough to independently complete this level of research... Maybe I said it too harshly, and the kid got angry." Zhang Wenxuan sighed heavily, "He accused me of favoring you, especially Xiaoyan, and never willing to acknowledge his strength. I will regret it sooner or later if this continues."
"How dare he say that to the teacher!" Shen Ke was furious, his finger bones cracking, "I should have hit him harder if I had known."
Everyone was outraged, except Jian Ziyan, who remained silent, even though he was the one who was hated the most.
"If he just showed up in the lab or passed by the lab, I wouldn't mention this person to the teacher alone," Jian Ziyan said, "then the direction of the matter is very clear."
Xu Guanglei was not worthy of being taken seriously by him, and he said it very calmly.
Everyone present thought of a possibility, and Shen Ke's face gradually became solemn.
"Teacher, we will ask him clearly. No matter what the result is, we will report to you." He said, "Chen Lixing, please protect the teacher."
"Don't worry." Chen Lixing agreed.
Before the connection was cut off, Jian Ziyan said softly: "Teacher, the student made a mistake, it has nothing to do with the teacher, please don't blame yourself."
He cannot experience sadness, nor can he comfort others. He just speaks out the truth that he understands.
On the other end of the line, Zhang Wenxuan, who had been holding back his tears, suddenly burst into tears.
He had many students in his life, and it can be said that he had many disciples all over the world. He treated every student as if they were his own child, trying to be fair and just and never showing favoritism.
Among these students, Jian Ziyan is undoubtedly the most special one. He once hesitated whether to train this child, because people who have no emotions but possess knowledge are very dangerous, and he was worried that he would train a monster.
But now, this very child who should have been the coldest told him that it was not his fault and he should not blame himself.
Zhang Wenxuan's voice trembled: "Good...good children, I'll wait for your message."
After hanging up the call, Jian Ziyan looked at the two people who were looking at him with inexplicable eyes: "What's wrong?"
"Dr. Jian, I'm sorry." Yu Hui said seriously, "For everything we did before."
There was some pain in Shen Ke's eyes. To be honest, he had caused more harm to Jian Ziyan than anyone else. Even if Jian Ziyan didn't say anything, he couldn't forgive himself.
He opened his lips slightly, but all the words were so pale that he felt ashamed to even speak them out.
Jian Ziyan glanced at him and took the initiative to hold his wrist.
In the face of Shen Ke's shocked gaze, he remained calm: "Let's go, there is still a lot to do."
At this moment, no matter what Jian Ziyan said, Shen Ke would do it.
All the way, Shen Ke was looking at his wrist until Jian Ziyan's voice rang out.
"Chen Ke, I gave you the antidote because I thought you were more capable than me. No matter what happens after you wake up, you will be more capable of dealing with it than me." Jian Ziyan said, "In nature, the fittest survive. In order to reproduce, the weak
They will actively give the chance of survival to the strong. This is the law of nature. You don’t need to think too much about it.”
Shen Ke's eyes became complicated, mixed with heartache and anger.
"Xiao Yan, we are not animals, and you are not a weakling." He said seriously, "I don't remember what happened at that time, but if I had this chance, I would choose to let you live, not because you are stronger than me, but because I love you."
Jian Ziyan lowered his eyes, seemingly not understanding why Chen Ke had such feelings, but he did not refute it.
He was so pure and ignorant that Shen Ke felt both sour and hot in his heart.
Chen Ke boldly took the initiative to shake Jian Ziyan's hand, and showed genuine joy when he was not rejected.
"You don't have to understand this." He whispered, "As long as you don't reject my approach and don't reject my feelings, it will be the best result for me. Xiaoyan, I won't force you to understand this, just be yourself."
Jian Ziyan looked at his fair and slender hand being firmly held by another broad and bony hand, and a strange feeling flashed through his eyes.
"I understand," he said.
…
The process of interrogating Xu Guanglei was simpler and more unexpected than they had imagined.
After a few days, Xu Guanglei had changed drastically. He huddled in a corner in fear, his body covered in dirt, including blood, vomit, food residue, and his own saliva.
His facial paralysis became more serious, and he muttered something expressionlessly, not caring at all that someone walked in.
"I am the real genius. Those achievements are all mine. It was Jian Ziyan who stole my achievements. I am the real genius. It was Jian Ziyan who made me like this..."
The hatred in Chen Ke's eyes almost solidified. As a witness, Yu Hui didn't intend to say much, but just frowned with disgust. However, Jian Ziyan, who was being worried about, was the most indifferent one.
"Xu Guanglei." He was clean and stood in front of Xu Guanglei. "What did you do in my laboratory on the day of the apocalypse?"
Hearing his voice, Xu Guanglei was stunned, as if he finally recognized who was in front of him. He stared at Jian Ziyan, and suddenly let out a wild cry and was about to pounce on him!
Shen Ke endured for a long time, and when he saw him move, he immediately kicked him hard against the wall, without even touching the corner of Jian Ziyan's clothes.
Xu Guanglei screamed, and did not get up for a long time. He curled up in the corner, gasping for breath.
Jian Ziyan stopped Shen Ke from stepping forward to kick him again, took a few steps forward, and turned him over regardless of the dirt all over his body.
"You can choose not to tell me, or you can choose to suffer less." He took out a tube of familiar medicine from his pocket and held it between his slender white fingers. It seemed to have a kind of beauty like a work of art. "You should recognize this thing that you invented yourself."
As soon as he saw what was in his hand, Xu Guanglei's pupils shrank instantly and he said in disbelief: "My obedience potion? How could you have it!"
"It's a very simple recipe, and it's not difficult to make." Jian Ziyan said, "You made it for me once. Is it difficult to analyze the ingredients?"
"This is impossible... This is impossible!" Xu Guanglei went crazy. He tried to grab Jian Ziyan's hand with a ferocious look in his eyes. "You must have stolen my potion. You can't possibly learn how to make my potion!"
"He's crazy. You won't get anything out of asking him this way." Yu Hui said with disgust. "Since Dr. Jian has made this potion, let's use it on himself. It can save some time."
Shen Ke didn't say anything. He put Jian Ziyan first. No matter what method Jian Ziyan used, he would support him.
Jian Ziyan didn't think much about it, he raised his hand and injected the medicine into Xu Guanglei's vein.
Soon, Xu Guanglei's eyes became as dull and stiff as his face.
Jian Ziyan asked tentatively: "What's your name?"
Xu Guanglei: "Xu Guanglei."
"It seems that I need to ask a more private question to test it." Jian Ziyan pondered for two seconds, "Where are your moles?"
As soon as these words came out, the solemn atmosphere instantly dissipated, and Chen Ke and Yu Hui both looked at each other in confusion.
"Chest, waist, legs, back." Xu Guanglei answered dully.
Before Shen Ke could stop him, Jian Ziyan reached out and pulled open Xu Guanglei's clothes, and saw the moles on his chest and waist.
"It should be fine." Jian Ziyan nodded.
Chen Ke took his hand back from Xu Guanglei with a serious face: "Xiao Yan, you can't take people's clothes casually."
Jian Ziyan glanced at him lightly, causing Shen Ke’s old face to blush.
The afterglow behind was simply unbearable to look at.
Jian Ziyan ignored them and asked the same question directly: "What did you do in my laboratory on the day when the apocalypse broke out?"
"I punctured your protective suits and released poison gas."
The two people behind him changed their expressions at the same time.
Jian Ziyan was not surprised and continued to ask: "Please explain in detail."
"I saw Chen Ke carrying something wrapped tightly, and I was unwilling to let the teacher not give me such an important research project, so I followed him to take a look." Xu Guanglei told him everything, "When I saw that you were the only one in the laboratory, an idea came to my mind: since you have been blocking my way, wouldn't it be okay if you just left? So I released the poison gas first, forcing you to deal with it, and then deliberately walked in, and when you came to drive me away, I pierced your protective suit."
"How could this happen?" Yu Hui said in shock, "I thought about what he did, but it turned out to be such a despicable thing! He was going to kill Dr. Jane!"
Chen Ke's eyes had become completely sinister, and he looked at Xu Guanglei as if he was looking at a dead person.
"What about me?" he asked in a deep voice, "What did you do to me?"
"I didn't want to kill you. As long as Jian Ziyan died, I could become your partner. I'm no worse than Jian Ziyan, and we can do the same high-end research." Xu Guanglei said, "But I didn't expect you to be faster than I thought and get in through the back door. After seeing Jian Ziyan was poisoned, you took off your protective suit without hesitation and tried to put it on him. However, the result of doing so was that you were both exposed at the same time. You can't blame me for this. Since you are already dead, of course you can't do any research anymore, so I went to take the experimental subjects away..."
At this point, not only the two humans with normal emotions were shocked, even Jian Ziyan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"You took the experiment away?" His expression was unusually strange, as if he couldn't understand the man's logic at all. "Where did you take it?"
"I stole it and wanted to study it myself, to prove to the teacher with my own strength that I could do what you, Jian Ziyan, could do," Xu Guanglei said, "but things soon went wrong, and the institute began to be filled with zombies..."
Jian Ziyan interrupted him: "What happened to the experimental subject in the end?"
Xu Guanglei's dull eyes revealed a bit of fear and struggle: "...I ate it."
"What? Eaten?"
This was a reason that no one had expected. Yu Hui couldn't even hold back the feeling of nausea and vomited while holding onto the wall.
"Yes, I ate it." Xu Guanglei's voice became sharp. "Do you know how many days I have been trapped? There are zombies everywhere! I haven't awakened my special powers, how can I get out by myself! I am so hungry, and this is the only thing I can chew. Can't I eat it? Anyone would eat it! What is more important than staying alive!"
Chen Ke looked at him in disbelief: "You really have... surpassed the limits of being a human being."
"Then the matter is very clear." Jian Ziyan was the only one who was not affected. "The corpse contained a virus that we don't understand, the so-called zombie virus. Perhaps the virus had already been leaked when it was released, and Xu Guanglei did not take corresponding protective measures when operating it, causing the virus to spread rapidly in the institute, which led to the people in the institute becoming the first victims."
"Perhaps everything was originally controllable." Chen Ke gritted his teeth, "Teacher has already taken very strict precautions when transporting the corpse. If everything goes well, we will soon discover its specialness and take more stringent preservation measures... rather than letting it be exposed to the air, allowing the virus to spread and eventually causing the whole world to fall."
The truth was revealed, and the three people's eyes fell on Xu Guanglei at the same time, with completely different expressions.
“So… he is the sinner of all mankind.” Yu Hui couldn’t suppress the anger in his heart, his voice trembling slightly, “He did this kind of evil thing because he was jealous of Dr. Jian, causing the whole world to pay for him…”
"Every time I think I understand human emotions, examples like this appear that confuse me." Jian Ziyan said calmly, "This also solves a problem I have been thinking about for a long time."
Chen Ke looked at him: "What is it?"
"I developed a superpower potion, and the first test subject was myself." Jian Ziyan said, "Although it was an experiment, I was confident in what I had done. No matter what, it would be impossible for me to simply turn into a zombie. It turned out that this was because I was also infected with the zombie virus, so it conflicted with the superpower potion, which gave me the ability to command zombies for a short period of time. Of course, this ability has disappeared as my energy has been overdrawn."
There was a hint of heartache in Shen Ke's eyes.
"Your situation is different from mine." Jian Ziyan looked at him. "Your situation is different from mine." "It's because of the antidote that neutralized the virus. But if that's the case..."
A strange light flashed through Jian Ziyan's eyes. At the same time, Chen Ke also reacted quickly. He looked at Jian Ziyan in shock, his heart trembling.
Yu Hui asked in confusion: "Two big guys... what did you suddenly understand?"
"If that's the case... Xiao Yan is the real one, with natural antibodies." Shen Ke said in a trance.
“W…what?” Yu Hui opened his mouth, losing all expression.
The two looked at Jian Ziyan in silence. This man had always been branded as the creator of the apocalypse. It was rumored that he coveted Chen Ke's natural antibodies, which was why he committed all kinds of brutal killings. However, it was eventually proved that not only was he not the creator of the apocalypse, he also did not do those things. In fact, he himself was the most precious natural antibodies in the world.
There are many fantastic and sad things in the world, but if this matter were to get out, it might cause another earthquake.
Jian Ziyan quickly accepted his new identity. He nodded calmly: "This is good. I have both the virus and antibodies in my body, which makes it easier to study."
Chen Ke took a deep breath and held Jian Ziyan's shoulders seriously: "Xiao Yan, promise me not to tell anyone that you are born with antibodies."
As someone who once bore this title, Shen Ke knew all too well what Jian Ziyan might be facing.
It can be said that if he himself did not have the fire of hell in his body, he would never be able to stand here safely now.
Jian Ziyan didn't know that people's hearts were treacherous. He knew that he would protect him. Even if Jian Ziyan didn't have special powers, he would never let anyone touch him.
His eyes were fierce and he swore a vicious oath in his heart.
Jian Ziyan didn't care about this and nodded thoughtfully. Yu Hui asked, "How should we deal with this...thing?"
He even felt disgusted when he was called Xu Guanglei.
Jian Ziyan only cares about the truth, no matter how it is handled, Shen Ke said: "Publicize what he did, and then hand it over to the people."
He was the one who put everyone in this situation, so let him pay for it himself.
Before leaving, Jian Ziyan seemed to have figured something out and walked back to the dazed Xu Guanglei.
"Xu Guanglei, you actually have supernatural powers."
His words were like thunder and lightning. Xu Guanglei was shocked all over and looked up at him blankly.
"The superpower fluctuations you awakened are very special. They are healing superpowers." Jian Ziyan said, "But having superpowers does not mean you are immune to infection. After you were infected with the virus, the superpowers in your body fought against the virus in order to maintain your functions."
Xu Guanglei began to tremble violently. His voice was shaky and he asked, "What did you say?"
Jian Ziyan lowered his eyes: "I have a special physique. I can feel whether others are infected and have special abilities. I can only say that you have wasted your talent and it is your own fault."
"No……"
Xu Guanglei hugged his head and curled up in pain, tears streaming down his paralyzed face and he let out a heart-wrenching howl.
"No! I don't believe it!
You lied to me! You lied to me - how could I be a superpower, how could I lose my superpowers, you lied to me -"
When Jian Ziyan and his companions left, they could still hear his howling, sometimes crying and sometimes laughing, it was obvious that he had gone completely crazy.
"He must be really regretting it so much that he's going crazy." Yu Hui sighed in gloating, "It's really all in vain. Why bother?"
Jian Ziyan was looking at the palm of his hand, on which a faint black line appeared. Before Shen Kewang looked over, he closed his palm.
"Go report to the teacher," he said.
…
What Zhang Wenxuan reported was not difficult. The wise old man had already guessed this possibility, but when he heard it with his own ears, he still couldn't help feeling sad.
No one could comfort him on this point. He needed to get over the pain of raising such a beast, and it would probably take a long time.
Chen Lixing repeatedly assured that he would take good care of Professor Zhang before the call was disconnected.
During this period, Jian Ziyan seemed to be worried and was absent-minded after hanging up the phone. Chen Ke was worried and after saying goodbye to Yu Hui, he took Jian Ziyan back to his laboratory.
Shen Ke knew that this was the place where Jian Ziyan could relax the most.
"Xiao Yan, what's wrong with you...?"
Before he could finish asking the question, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Because Jian Ziyan suddenly pushed him against the experimental table and squeezed himself between his legs.
Shen Ke's breathing suddenly stagnated, his arms were resting on the edge of the laboratory table, and the veins on his strong and slender arms were bulging with endurance.
Jian Ziyan had the cold smell of laboratory chemicals on him, but when Shen Ke smelled it, his voice trembled.
"Xiao, Xiao Yan..."
Jian Ziyan's eyes were still very calm, he looked at Shen Ke's face as if he was studying the instruction manual of a new machine.
"If you like it, do you have to do these things?"
Jian Ziyan took Shen Ke’s hand and touched his collar and Adam’s apple.
His vocal cords vibrated in Shen Ke's hands.
"I don't quite know what to do. You come and teach me."
