Chapter 319: Is He the Mastermind Behind All This?
The call was answered, and the voice was full of surprise: "Why did you take your phone? Are you back?"
Feng Jianwen asked two questions in one breath.
"Well, a lot of people don't know I'm back. I have some things to deal with, so don't tell anyone yet."
Feng Jianwen was stunned. "So mysterious. Oh, by the way, even though I've arranged for you to refrigerate your flowers to keep them fresh, they won't last long. Do you want to dry them directly?"
Chu Qiaozhe then remembered those Icelandic sunflowers. His eyes rolled as he said, "Don't dry them. They're very precious. I want to find a professional biopharmaceutical expert to extract some of the ingredients in the flowers."
"Okay, I'll arrange it whenever you need it."
"As soon as possible, I'm afraid the flowers can't wait long."
"No problem, wait for my news tomorrow morning."
Chu Qiao stayed on the set until night, but there were no new clues.
The next morning, Chu Qiao wanted to continue keeping an eye on Li Sisi, but Feng Jianwen had already sent him a text message.
"It's all arranged. You can go directly to the pharmaceutical factory and find Professor Hao. He's an expert in ingredient purification."
Chu Qiao's breathing stagnated: "Okay, I'll be there right away."
Chu Qiao was conflicted. He was worried about what he would find out, but he also wanted to find out something.
Never mind, since it has happened, I’ll just accept it.
Chu Qiao stepped into the pharmaceutical factory and was greeted by the director who had received him last time.
"Ms. Chu, President Feng said you were coming early in the morning."
Chu Qiao said politely, "Director, President Feng told me to find a Professor Hao. Do you know him?"
The director's smile froze: "Professor Hao?"
"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?" The director's strange expression made Chu Qiao even more suspicious.
"No, no," the director quickly explained, "It's just that ordinary people aren't allowed to enter Professor Hao's place, and he has a bad temper, so we're all afraid of him."
"Anyone with ability has a bit of a temper. How about this, Director, you tell me how to get there and I'll go by myself."
"Okay, if you can't find it, call me."
Chu Qiao sent the director away just to explore whether there was any hidden space in this pharmaceutical factory, and why Professor Hao didn't allow anyone to enter his laboratory.
Chu Qiao walked along the wall, knocking on it from time to time, and listening carefully with his ear tilted.
Chu Qiao has very good hearing and can detect most noises.
That’s no problem. Is it underground?
Chu Qiao squatted on the ground and knocked on the floor. It was all solid, there was no darkroom.
Hearing a voice behind him, Chu Qiao pretended to tie his shoelaces.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" An old voice came from behind.
Chu Qiao turned around and saw a white-haired old man in front of him. The old man looked energetic, but his expression was not very friendly.
Chu Qiao raised his foot and said, "Old man, I'm wearing it."
"What are you doing here? No one is allowed to come in here casually."
"Excuse me, excuse me, I'm looking for a professor named Hao, but I got lost."
"Who are you and what do you want from me?"
"Are you Professor Hao? I'm Chu Qiao, and President Feng asked me to find you."
The old man looked at Chu Qiao in surprise: "Is this the Icelandic Happy Flower you brought back?"
"Do you know Icelandic Happy Flower?" Chu Qiao's eyes lit up. Maybe it can really be extracted.
"Come with me," the old man said as he opened the iron gate in front of him. "Hurry up, or those little brats from the factory will come and bother me again."
Chu Qiao quickly ran over and followed him in.
"Close the door, close the door." Professor Hao nervously closed the iron door.
Weird.
Chu Qiao was just thinking about it when he heard an exaggerated voice behind him.
"Ah, Professor Hao, why did you close it again?"
"We didn't go in, but Old Man Hao was on guard against us every day."
Two middle-aged men in white coats were arguing at Professor Hao's door like two little children, asking him to open it.
Professor Hao scolded, "Get lost, I have guests today."
The two middle-aged men looked at Chu Qiao with dejected expressions: "You have guests, so we won't disturb you."
"It's all your fault. You said Mr. Hao was out for dinner, but it turned out he was out to pick someone up."
"How can you blame me?"
The two people left noisily.
Chu Qiao couldn't help but ask, "Professor Hao, who are these two people? Why do they look a little..."
"Ignore them, two idiots, always arguing with me over a doctoral thesis."
What? Doctor? Those two people just now were actually doctors?
Chu Qiao suppressed his surprise and pretended to be calm: "Professor Hao, um, what is your main research area?"
"I'm studying Biological Sciences. Why, little girl, do you want to ask me academic questions?"
Chu Qiao laughed and said, "No, no, I came here just to ask you to extract an ingredient."
"Wear isolation clothing and gloves."
Chu Qiao watched Professor Hao enter the laboratory, and his expression and attitude immediately became serious. He immediately knew that not everyone could come in.
And it's likely dangerous.
"Don't move around or touch anything inside. There might be some strange little animals inside. Don't be afraid."
Chu Qiao nodded, put on his protective suit carefully, and followed Hao into the laboratory.
What frightened her even more was why Professor Hao allowed an outsider like him to enter the laboratory.
As soon as you enter Chuqiao, you will see a sky-high glass cage cabinet filled with white mice, some of which are lively and some are lifeless.
If you walk further, you will see rabbits, frogs and other animals.
If an ordinary person entered, he would probably scream in fear, but Chu Qiao remained calm.
"Little girl, you're not afraid?"
"Professor Hao, these little guys are so delicious, what are you afraid of?"
Professor Hao's eyes bulged as he looked at Chu Qiao as if he were a monster. "No wonder Jianwen said his new girlfriend was very interesting and asked me to meet you."
Girlfriend? What nonsense is Feng Jianwen talking about?
But Chu Qiao immediately understood. If she didn't say that, this weird old man might not see her.
Chu Qiao saw a flower in the cabinet in front of him. A happy flower?
Chu Qiao pretended not to know what kind of flower it was and exclaimed, "Professor Hao, this flower is so beautiful."
"Don't touch it, there's a hallucinogen there. And that flower is fake, made of rubber, for display."
"Ah..." Chu Qiao didn't expect Professor Hao to be so straightforward.
"Are these all magic drugs?" Chu Qiao pointed at the medicines next to the flowers. There were white medicines and yellow capsules that Chu Qiao had seen before.
There are many kinds that Chu Qiao has never seen before, including powders and ampoule-like liquids.
"Those are all things I extracted before. Later, the purity could not be higher, so I studied them."
Chu Qiao's eyes widened. Professor Hao could extract hallucinogens, and at various concentrations?
Why did Feng Jianwenrong keep a retired professor in his pharmaceutical factory?
