The voice, filled with rage, was like thunder, striking everyone's ears.
Seems like he's going to go crazy at any moment.
The researchers trembled with fear, raised their hands collectively, pointed in one direction, and spontaneously made way.
The lights in the laboratory were still unstable and flickering. Tang Xili raised her eyelids and looked over.
At the end of the cleared road, stood a blonde woman in her fifties.
He was not tall and was very thin. He was wearing a not very clean white coat, and his pair of blue eyes were looking straight at him.
Her eyes were very passionate, with a kind of joy and madness that came from someone who had been doing research for a long time and finally saw the results.
Meeting her strange gaze, Tang Xili narrowed her eyes, stepped closer, and put the muzzle of the gun to Hilgard's chin.
"What does this expression... mean?"
Hilgard looked her up and down, his eyes becoming more and more fanatical, not afraid of being pointed at by a gun.
He even reached out and touched her shoulder, sighing, "It's simply a medical miracle, no, a miracle..."
The inexplicable words seemed to have no beginning or end, but in an instant, they made Tang Xili's back chill.
Yong Zhixu, who was not far away, had a change of expression in his eyes. He suddenly said, "Yangyang, let's leave here first."
Tang Xili ignored him, her sharp eyes fixed on Hilgard's, and she said slowly, "Tell me clearly, why do you say I'm a medical miracle?"
"Go first." Yong Zhixu walked over, grabbed her wrist and tried to pull her away forcibly.
"Let me go!" Tang Xili shook his hand hard.
The man acted as if he didn't hear her. He held her hand tightly and dragged her out. After a few steps, he simply carried her on his shoulders.
"I said, let me go!" Tang Xili's face was horrifyingly gloomy, and he punched the man on the back, but he did not stop.
As she was about to leave the lab, she shouted at her armed forces, "Are they all dead? Why don't you stop him?"
A dozen armed soldiers stood tall and blocked the door of the laboratory.
The submachine guns in their hands were aimed at Yong Zhixu in unison.
"Mr. Yong, let her go!" warned the leading secret guard captain.
Yong Zhixu turned a blind eye and walked out with a firm step, facing more than a dozen gun barrels. "Even if you shoot, I will not let her go unless I die."
The armed forces knew the relationship between the two men, so they didn't dare to actually shoot and just retreated step by step.
Tang Xili was completely enraged and started to attack. She slammed her knee into the man's abdomen and took advantage of the pain to break free from his restraints.
He turned around with lightning speed, grabbed his arm, and threw him over his shoulder, knocking the unsuspecting man to the ground.
At the same time, she pressed her knees against the man's chest, half-knelt on the ground, and grabbed his neck. "No one can be my master, including you."
Her voice was cold and her expression was unfamiliar.
Yong Zhixu's forehead veins popped out from her pinching, and his handsome face flushed red. He gripped her wrist tightly, "The truth is no longer important. There's no need to listen to her nonsense."
"You thought of it too, right..." It was not a question, but an affirmation. Tang Xili slowly let go of her hand, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her lips.
"Max went to great lengths to leave me with a huge hole. I have to face it. Even if I don't come, he will come back to me sooner or later..."
She stood up, helped the man up, and softened her voice, "I know what you mean, but this is my own business."
The truth was right in front of her. How could she stop at the last step?
"Even if there is an abyss ahead, you will still jump?" Yong Zhixu's heart began to ache.
Tang Xili smiled indifferently, turned around, returned to the laboratory, and stood in front of Hilgard again. "Go on, what exactly do you mean by a medical miracle?"
Seeing her turn back, Hilgard was not surprised. His eyes became even more obsessed and strange, staring at her almost pervertedly.
That mysterious smile, under the flickering light, looked like a demon in human skin.
It was extremely quiet all around. She could only be heard saying slowly, "Tang Xili, haven't you noticed that there's no Evelyn No. 1 in this lab? Guess... where she is?"
The blood in Tang Xili's body froze instantly. Although she had already guessed something, she was still shocked when she heard her say it in person.
My mind went blank and I suddenly couldn't hear any sound.
It was as if I had fallen into a confined space, with Hilgard's voice filling my head.
【Didn't you notice there's no Evelyn No. 1 in this lab?】
【Guess where she is? 】
【Guess where she is? 】
【Where? 】
…
The scenery in front of her seemed to be distorted, and Tang Xili felt dizzy.
Is this the last big gift Max gave her?
The clone was actually herself?
"Yangyang..." A voice came from far and near to her ears, and a hand supported her from behind as she was about to fall.
Her consciousness was suddenly pulled back, Tang Xili turned her head and looked behind her, her face was frighteningly pale.
"Don't listen to her nonsense, her words are full of loopholes." Yong Zhixu denied.
Tang Xili's empty eyes gradually focused, and then scanned the faces of everyone present one by one.
Inside the laboratory, the air pressure dropped even lower, as if the air had been sucked out, creating a cramped and suffocating feeling.
Suddenly, she smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. "Where's the evidence? You want to get rid of me with just a few words?"
Seeing that she didn't believe him, Hilgard became anxious. He walked around her, went to the left, opened one of the computers, and retrieved the data. "The evidence is right here."
Tang Xili didn't go over, so Hilgard simply read it to her.
"Evelyn, a British-Chinese, whose Chinese name is Tang Xili, was born on December 31, 2000, in Beijing, China. She died on October 6, 2013, in a car accident. The following year, Evelyn No. 1, a replica of her DNA, was born. Professor Max personally tested the experimental subject..."
"Impossible!" Yong Zhixu interrupted her. "A clone can't have the original's memories. How do you explain this, that she has memories from her childhood?"
Hilgard manipulated the mouse and pulled up a video clip, feeling very proud. "Then we have to mention our Truman Project..."
The video shows a replicated scene, the same European-style villa, and the same An family. Just like a set program, things will develop according to the established track.
Evelyn No. 1 experienced all the experiences of the original body, and the seeds of hatred were planted in her since childhood.
Glancing at the video, Tang Xili pointed out a loophole, "Even if a villa can be built, what about the An family?"
"They all had plastic surgery based on the An family's template," Hilgard explained.
"Well said." Tang Xili raised her hands and applauded, "I almost believed it."
