Wei Sushen had a natural talent for cheating, quickly absorbing the answers with a casual glance. His mental fortitude was equally strong, and he had no qualms about cheating.
The only invigilator who couldn't stand it was Jiang Qiu. Seeing this blatant plagiarism, he couldn't help but throw the teacup in front of him.
Fang Shan seemed to have sensed something and suddenly said inexplicably, "We've always sold things in bundles."
This person possessed genuine talent, at least significantly better than the assistants in Jiang Qiu's lab. Unfortunately, he was a dangerous talent. After careful consideration, Jiang Qiu decided to limit Fang Shan to basic tasks.
As for the other one, Jiang Qiu looked at Wei Sushen and said, "The lab is still short of a cleaner. You can come if you want."
“…”
After saying that, he stood up and told Fang Shan directly that he would not be allowed to enter the core: "If you can accept that, someone will pick you up at the hotel tomorrow."
Fang Shan didn't want to linger on someone else's territory, so he nodded and left with Wei Sushen.
"Don't be too sad." When he reached the outside of the dense forest, he said in the most clichéd way: "God closed a door for the host, so he opened this window for me."
Wei Sushen stopped and stared at him with a searching look. "I've told you more than once, don't comfort people easily."
A person who is about to jump off a building may very likely commit suicide right then and there if the system persuades him to do so.
No matter what Jiang Qiu's real intention was in taking them to the laboratory, there was no reason to refuse. After returning, they replied to the text message to express their agreement.
Perhaps out of respect for Fang Shan's habit of sleeping in, someone didn't come to pick them up until the afternoon of the next day.
It's rare that the person driving today is not Li Bufan, but Jiang Qiu himself.
Jiang Qiu: "It's a long journey, remember to observe carefully."
They took side roads, practically circling the city's edge, before finally reaching the outskirts. After a two-hour walk, Jiang Qiu led them back to where the car was parked and they were back on the road.
After a lot of wandering, we returned to the hotel.
"How is it?" Jiang Qiu parked the car and turned around to look at the expressions of the two men.
Fang Shan stared at the hotel in thought for a few seconds, then suddenly realized: "This is the real darkness under the lamp."
Who would have thought that the laboratory was built in the hotel where they were staying? Considering that it was this person who arranged for them to stay here that day, one couldn't help but admire his audacity.
Jiang Qiu thought he would see a frustrated look on his face, but Fang Shan was not angry at all. Instead, he looked at him with a teachable look.
"It's true that the moves aren't about novelty, but the routines." Fang Shan touched his chin and muttered to himself, "I've learned that."
Jiang Qiu frowned, having a strange illusion that he had inadvertently contributed to the other party's evolution.
The moment he entered the hotel, Fang Shan began to observe things with a fresh perspective, discovering many details he often overlooked. The receptionist had been the same person for at least a week without a day off. The other people were also busy in a remarkably regular manner, like NPCs in a game, doing the same things day in and day out.
When Fang Shan learned that the laboratory was not underground but was instead located in an ordinary guest room, he couldn't help but applaud: "What a wonderful wisdom."
He looked at Jiang Qiu with a touching look: "I understand you, and I believe you understand me too."
Jiang Qiu avoided his gaze and looked at Wei Sushen. The meaning he conveyed was very clear... Is there something wrong with this guy's brain?
He looked at Wei Sushen with a questioning look, and the latter looked at him as if he were a love rival.
Jiang Qiu has been able to call the shots for many years, but this is the first time he has seen so many people perform in such a big way.
Only when I entered the guest room did I realize that there was something hidden inside. There was a door inside, and the password I needed to enter was incredibly long.
Fang Shan: "Is the password unified?"
Jiang Qiu shook his head: "Each door has a special password. If you enter the wrong one, the alarm will sound."
Fang Shan thought that this light-hearted remark was meant to warn him not to do unnecessary things.
He looked at the experimental equipment with a cold metallic luster and promised to abide by the rules and regulations.
Jiang Qiu didn't believe his nonsense, but he didn't say much. He simply explained the daily tasks to be completed. During this time, he accidentally caught a glimpse of Wei Sushen listening to the heavenly book and asked a question that had been accumulating for a long time: "Was your family environment not good before?"
According to the files Li Bufan sent to them earlier, both brothers had attended school, so why was there such a big gap between them?
Fang Shan: "Very good." Pointing at Wei Sushen, he said: "It's so good that it's outrageous."
Jiang Qiu sighed, "Genes are truly amazing things."
Fang Shan understood his deep meaning and waved his hand: "We are not brothers, so there is no genetic problem."
A muffled sound came unexpectedly.
Fang Shan looked up and saw that Jiang Qiu had actually broken a metal frame of the equipment.
"What did you say?"
The delay of each word is enough to fall from heaven to hell.
Fang Shan couldn't understand where this anger came from. Could it be that all scientists in the apocalypse have a crazy side?
As a bystander who was often criticized, Wei Sushen roughly understood the source of Jiang Qiu's resentment and stood aside calmly to watch the show.
"It's not a direct one. I just did an identification test not long ago." Fang Shan thought for a moment and said, "After clearing out the mutated creatures in the botanical garden."
There were too many loopholes in this statement. Why would someone whose parents had died young and who had lived together until their twenties suddenly become suspicious of their past? Jiang Qiu narrowed his eyes and frankly pointed out the illogicality.
"When we were young, we didn't think much about it," Fang Shan said. "Now we're all adults, and if we use our brains a little, we can see that we don't look alike."
“…”
Wei Sushen witnessed this scene and suddenly felt that the system should not have founded the Yi Ba Sect in the first place, but the Paidao Sect. Watching him and Jiang Qiu hurt each other was like two newly hatched chicks pecking at each other.
Perhaps because he felt annoyed just looking at him for one more moment, Jiang Qiu swallowed his anger, left them alone in the room to handle their work, and left first.
Ever since Fang Shan got involved, the hotel staff has been replaced, and there are S-level psychics on duty on every floor.
Fang Shan went out to take a look, then returned to the house under the other party's warning gaze.
"When did high-level psychics become commonplace?"
Wei Sushen heard his sneer and said calmly, "Since he dared to let you come, he must have made every possible preparation."
Rather than improvising, the system prefers to take the initiative, doing the work assigned by Jiang Qiu while thinking about countermeasures.
Wei Sushen peeled an apple for him. Fang Shan came back to his senses from his thoughts and curled his lips... This was clearly depriving him of his hobbies.
Wei Sushen naturally couldn't let his obsession with peeling apples go, so he spoke to call Fang Shan's attention back.
"The laboratory's location has been exposed, and the mission is only a stone's throw away."
At this point, Wei Sushen looked at him and said, "Or we can stick with your original plan and deal with Dr. Bai directly."
Once and for all.
Fang Shan's eyes moved: "Without using props, the chance of killing him is only half."
Wei Sushen smiled: "That's all?"
Fang Shan's face was tense. After taking a bite of the apple, he couldn't help laughing because of the crisp and sweet taste. "I admit that I do have other concerns."
"Although I know Dr. Bai might do something harmful in the future, he hasn't taken action yet," he said, "because the possibility of killing someone is not a good idea."
As my contact with Jiang Qiu deepened, at least I didn't see any indiscriminate killing of innocent people.
After saying that, he spread his hands and said, "Who made me look kind and have a good heart?"
Wei Sushen was a bit amused by his tone: "Researching the virus requires countless manpower and resources. All we need to do is destroy some of the data or intercept it when the research is complete."
Fang Shan nodded seriously. If you ignore the way he crossed his legs while eating an apple, you might believe his seriousness.
Wei Sushen analyzed the hotel's structure: "There are eighteen floors in total. It's more likely that the core laboratory is built in the middle."
Fang Shan nodded. The lower levels would easily attract attention. Even if Jiang Qiu believed that the most dangerous place was the safest, he would not be so bold.
"A blanket search would be best." He looked out the peephole into the corridor, only the core of an apple remaining. "But avoiding the psychics on duty is a bit of a hassle."
The system has always been full of conspiracies and tricks. In just a few minutes, it came up with several plans, such as making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, using smoke alarms, etc.
"Why go through so much trouble?" Wei Sushen pointed to the window.
Fang Shan's expression froze for a moment: "Climbing through the window?"
Wei Sushen: "The person on duty is in the corridor. We can move freely up and down the pipes."
Fang Shan was silent. Why did it sound so low-class?
As if knowing what he was thinking, Wei Sushen said calmly, "Just be practical."
Climbing through the window depends on the time of day, and success is only possible when it is late at night and everyone is asleep.
Fang Shan wore a pair of gloves on purpose. His climbing technique was very good and he soon left Wei Sushen far behind.
Refusing to think about the origin of this skill, Wei Sushen followed slowly behind: "Which floor should we go to first?"
Fang Shan: "Take the middle of our lucky numbers, the seventh floor."
“…”
So casual.
The room we finally chose was an ordinary little guest room with terrible security.
Fang Shan wasn't the least bit disappointed. If he could pick someone so easily, wouldn't that mean he'd become Jiang Qiu's nemesis? He stared out the window with a cold expression and said, "Jiang Qiu only thought of adding a password to the door. What a mistake."
Wei Sushen spoke objectively and said, "The other party underestimated how shameless we are."
Fang Shan refused to listen to the truth and looked around carefully.
There was almost no experimental equipment, but there were piles of books. Pulling out a notebook and flipping through it, his eyes gradually brightened from their initial indifference.
"It looks like a record from a few years ago. The owner of the notes is an absolute genius." Fang Shan became increasingly interested as he tried to deduce using the algorithm in the program.
After reading several books in a row, the system's innate ability was to draw inferences from one example. A small string of formulas could instantly be used to generate countless derivatives using the code. It wasn't long before Fang Shan frowned again: "Stupid! You actually made a mistake on such a simple detail."
Wei Sushen couldn't understand what was going on. He glanced around and found a red light flashing in an inconspicuous corner. He guessed it was a camera: "Someone should be here soon."
Fang Shan also saw it, and then continued to calculate with his head down.
When Jiang Qiu came in, he saw them looking diligent and studious. Then, looking at the wide-open window, he didn't know whether to be angry or scold them for their audacity.
However, it was Fang Shan who spoke first: "That's terrible. If you can think of all this, why hasn't the research been completed yet?"
He walked up to Jiang Qiu, slammed his book, and began to pour out his thoughts. All at once, knowledge from various professional fields poured down on him. As Fang Shan spoke, he picked up his pen and deduced, "I see the designation 'H' appears repeatedly in your notes. I'm guessing it's the name of the virus you're researching."
Reason reminded Jiang Qiu that he should kill the person to silence him, but the current situation was that he was stunned by the scolding.
Fang Shan: "If I were to develop it, within three months, I could collect all 26 types starting from A, not just the H type."
“…”
After waiting for a long while without a response from Jiang Qiu, Fang Shan even stood there stupidly, with a look of disgust on his face. He turned his head and asked Wei Sushen, "What's wrong with him?"
Wei Sushen: "Maybe I suddenly felt like I had gone from an omnipotent genius to a loser."
Fang Shan tilted his head: "Are you sure?"
Wei Sushen nodded and said calmly, "Because I feel the same way."
