Project Icarus details
"Yueyue's personality is indeed very bad. KK and I have also suffered greatly from it." Lucia pursed her lips and complained to the mirror about Furuya Rei. At the same time, she said comfortingly, "But she is still very reliable when it comes to serious matters. Let's discuss how to resolve today's matter first. Come up the stairs on the left. I will ask the butler to bring you in."
When Lucia said this, Shigure Yueling beside her showed a puzzled expression. After the communication with Furuya Rei was disconnected, she frowned and asked Lucia beside her: "Am I a bad person?"
"Yueyue, you have to remember that sincerity is the ultimate weapon. If you want Touzi to stop fighting alone, just say it directly next time. If you always act like a riddle, people will dislike you!" Lucia stretched out a white and tender finger and advised seriously. Everyone wants to be favored, and no one is an exception.
"Okay, okay, I get it." Shi Yu Yueling felt a little headache after being nagged, and quickly asked her sisters to stop preaching, and to stop talking nonsense and get down to business.
Albert opened the door and came in, bringing with him Rei Furuya. When he entered the room, he saw that Shi Yuyue Ling was indeed sitting on the sofa with Lucia next door. The anger that had subsided on the way to Furuya Furuya was ignited again.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Rei Furutani, dressed in waiter's uniform, greeted Lucia: "Ms. Sofield." There was a hint of vigilance in the depths of his eyes as he looked at the blonde doll, and his whole attitude became distant.
"Tell me, who did Serral invite?" Shi Yu Yueling looked at Albert and brought the topic to business.
After consulting Lucia, Albert explained today's situation to his guests: "Master Sellar did not invite the families that often cooperate with the Sofield family. Instead, he chose a financially powerful company from the British upper class as his partner."
A financially powerful company? Was Seral's motive truly money? Rei Furuya wasn't sure what the theme of today's banquet was. He felt a strange commotion, a fuss just for the sake of money. He had a feeling there must be something more behind the banquet.
The focus was indeed on that project. Shi Yuyueling and Luxia looked at each other and almost instantly ruled out the possibility of money.
"Albert, introduce us to the [Project Icarus] project." Lucia gave orders, and Shigure Yueling and Furuya Ling's eyes fell on Albert.
"Yes, Ms. Lucia. Project Icarus is a program aimed at 'reshaping the future of life.' Dr. Eleanor, the former project leader, claimed that the project aims to stimulate all potential in the human body, enabling wounds to heal quickly, limbs to regrow, and spinal cords to regenerate, thus freeing humans from diseases that are incurable by modern medicine."
It sounds like people are being transformed into supermen. Fūya Rei was a little stunned. He had only seen such things on TV. How could it be possible? However, he looked at Shigure Yueling over there. They already had magic, so it shouldn't be impossible to achieve it, right?
"This has been announced to the public, right? The essence of the experiment is actually to change the current genetic form of human beings. It sounds very high-sounding and for the pursuit of the common welfare of mankind, but putting aside all that, isn't it still some kind of human transformation experiment?" Shi Yu Yueling was very calm. She had never been exposed to these biological research studies before. From her previous psychological point of view, it was difficult for her to express any opinions on these scientific researchers. After all, it was difficult to get in touch with their hearts before, and she mostly showed respect and admiration.
Now, biotechnology is related to the organization - she didn't want to express any opinions on the scientific research results from the perspective of an ignorant bystander, but she couldn't help but think of it in the worst possible way. Once the research is groundbreaking, subsequent experiments will inevitably follow one after another, which may cause a major ecological and biological earthquake, thereby triggering a series of global uncontrollable reactions.
However, from the long-term perspective of human development, this kind of research is destined to come out one day in the future.
"Does this collide with their drug research?" Lucia was a little unsure. It sounded like some of the functions were similar, except that [Project Icarus] was pursuing the reorganization of life forms, while the organization's drug A was to restore the human life form.
"What medicine?" Jyoutani Ling, who caught the key point in Lucia's words, asked, while staring at Shiyu Yueling. He knew that Shiyu Yueling must know something.
"Uh." Lucia, who was talking to Shigure Yueling, heard the question from Fūya Rei. Her voice got stuck in her throat. With a hint of awkwardness, she looked at Shigure Yueling and asked, "Can I tell you about this?"
"Of course not." Shi Yu Yue Ling's voice came out from between her teeth, and she looked at Jiang Gu Ling with gritted teeth.
After hearing what Shi Yu Yue Ling said, Jiang Gu Ling had given up hope of getting any information from Shi Yu Yue Ling. At the same time, he secretly complained, it's not that he doesn't ask Shi Yu Yue Ling when he has questions, but look at her reaction every time! Only a fool would ask her.
However, this time Shi Yu Yue Ling didn't play dumb, but said directly: "I can't tell you about the drugs for now. After all, you can't do anything if I tell you now. It doesn't make much difference whether you know or not. When you can get in touch with things related to them, come and ask me again. For now, focus on the current matter."
"Otherwise, why not just capture Seral and ask him?" Lucia was getting a little impatient with guessing here, so she decided to just solve the problem quickly.
"Isn't it a bit too reckless?" Hearing Lucia's suggestion, Fūya Ling's heart tightened, fearing that it would attract attention and the culprit would run away.
"What are you afraid of? It's not like we can't catch him. Just wait." Lucia slammed the table and was about to rush out to find that cheap brother.
"Ahem." Albert pretended to cough twice to signal Lucia to behave properly. This reminder reminded Lucia of the time when she ate the star-gazing pie, and she walked back with her head down.
"I think what Ayu said is right. What are you afraid of? It's not like we can't deal with them." Shi Yu Yue Ling waved at Furuya Ling with her phone and said, "I've contacted Kazami Yuya and asked him to contact MI6 in the UK. They are also responsible for hunting them down, and support will be here soon."
With supporters, the little Loli raised her head, her eyes sparkling, and she stood up again. She ran out excitedly, forced to be a well-mannered young lady. She had been having so many classes every day, and she had been frustrated for a long time. Now that idiot Seral was in her face, who else could she teach him a lesson if not him?
Lucia, who was wearing a little dress, fiddled with something in the corner of the room for a long time. She pulled out a katana from somewhere. The sword was almost as tall as herself. There was an indescribable sense of joy in her hand.
"Miss," Albert took a step forward and was about to say something to stop Lucia, but Shi Yu Yue Ling, who was sitting on the sofa, picked up the fruit knife on the table and threw it at Albert, just glancing at his head and hitting the wall. Albert was a little dazed. He looked at the knife on the wall, then at Shi Yu Yue Ling, who was typing on the sofa with something in her hand, and wisely took a step back, as if what had just happened had never happened.
Xiao Li's flying dagger cuts deep into the wood. This move is very cool!
Yueyue did a good job. Luxia gave Shiyu Yueling a thumbs up and went out with the knife. The honest housekeeper followed her out and closed the door for the two guests in the room.
"Let Miss Sofield go by herself?" The police's professional ethics told Ling Furuya that a seven-year-old child should not be involved in such a dangerous matter, and a child should not be allowed to catch people with a knife by himself. Something bad would happen, right?
Hearing Furuya Rei's voice, Shi Yu Yue Ling looked up, sighed, and said, "Do you have any misunderstandings about us? If she were an ordinary, normal person, why would I let her go?"
Bang, the door of the room was kicked open from the outside, and the little loli holding a katana walked in arrogantly, dragging the half-dead Seral. Albert followed behind and closed the door.
Shi Yu Yue Ling put down her phone on the sofa, walked over and squatted down to look at Seral who had his eyes closed. A Clow Card appeared at the tip of her finger, and the [Dream] card flew out, and Seral, whose pupils were dilated, opened his eyes.
"Okay, ask." The art was complete, Shi Yu Yue Ling clapped her hands and stood up.
What do you want to ask? Luxia looked over at Furuya Ling and saw that he was looking at Shi Yu Yue Ling who was clapping his hands. Suddenly, she couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth. Ahem, no, she still had to get down to business.
"Hey! Serral, why are you holding a party today?" Lucia threw away the knife in her hand, jumped back and sat on the sofa, looking at Serral Sofield in front of her and asked.
"To raise funds for the research of [Project Icarus]." Serral answered in a dazed voice.
"Just for funding? Eleanor Ashford is dead, who will be the next person in charge of [Project Icarus]?" Standing aside, Rei Furuya was skeptical. Logically speaking, one should not be able to lie when under a spell, right?
"It's me," Serral said.
Was it him? Shi Yuyueling and Lucia exchanged glances. Hadn't they previously said he was just a participant? The summit originally scheduled for Switzerland had also been postponed. Why could Serral Sofield be so certain that he would be the next person in charge?
"When will the International Biosafety Summit originally scheduled to be held in Switzerland be postponed to? What is the address?" Fūya Rei looked at Seral and continued to ask.
"The summit took place, secretly, three days ago."
!? Was it held? When? I haven't heard any news about it.
"Master Serral did leave England for France three days ago." Albert spoke at the right time to answer Lucia's questions.
"Is there someone behind you? Do you know the cause of Eleanor Ashford's death?" Shi Yu Yue Ling asked the question she wanted to know most.
"Yes, it was a woman. She contacted me by phone and said there was a way for me to become the head of [Project Icarus]. I just needed to raise enough funds for the project. I didn't believe it, but then the news of Ashford's death came out, and then the woman contacted me again."
The three people in the room looked at each other, and the matter became clear. Seral was afraid that he would be killed too, so he cooperated with them.
