17. Chapter XVII
Wang Ren was lying on the bed, he looked at the ceiling with his eyes open, the light had been extinguished, and the light from the window was imprinted in his eyes, which was exceptionally bright in the dark.
In an instant, thousands of thoughts poured into my mind, and the qi of the previous life was like a fragment of a horse passing frame by frame, like a prophecy in a nightmare and like a predetermined fate. Fate is not impossible to change, but it is difficult to change, sometimes a small choice can change a person's life, but you don't know which is the choice that changes your life, each step of the trajectory is approaching the original, find Zou Yun can answer? Knowing that the research institute had started developing that terrible monster so early, what could it do if it was just known? Weak as me, so able to shake the cold state machine? Maybe one day in the future, I will still inexplicably become a monster test subject?
In my previous life, when I was close to death, I saw many incidents of beasts hurting people reported on the news, and at that time, rumors on the Internet were everywhere and finally suppressed. It's just that there are more and more incidents of wild beasts hurting people and deaths, and the flu has begun to break out in City A, and people are panicked for a while, and the media tries to control public opinion and only urge people to go out as little as possible, but they can't suppress people's hearts, the economy begins to decline, and the doomsday theory is intensifying.
In the year of Wang Ren's death in the previous life, the GDP was the lowest in the history of the year, the stock market was turbulent, the suicide rate in country Z was very high, the social order was very chaotic, and there was a trend of mountains and rains coming and the wind filling the building. It's just that Wang Ren died not long after, and it is unknown as soon as he is known.
Wang Ren has a hunch, this premonition is very strong, the research institute must stop that incident, otherwise there will be terrible consequences, it will become like the previous life? Wang Ren doesn't care much about other people's lives and deaths, but he still has a grandmother, if the society is chaotic and he dies again, what should his grandmother do? But the success rate of a plan to stop a state institution is so slim that it is impossible for ordinary people to stop it! Expose their plans? … But I don't have any evidence, and even if there is evidence, how easy is it? Maybe the evidence has been wiped out before it is exposed to the world, and he, like an ant, can pinch it to death as much as he wants, and he will be considered a madman.
Wang Ren closed his eyes, the road seemed to be a dead end no matter how he went, and then he thought of Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao belonged to a special department! After his previous life, Wang Ren knew the origin of the special department, and in his previous life, before he was sent by Yu Yikun to be a test specimen for monsters, he knew that the special department seemed to be investigating this matter? And this department is extremely powerful! It is said that the elites singled out by the countries of the world form a department, which is almost unchecked! They have only one purpose: to keep the world safe.
However, when Wang Ren was sent to be used as a test subject, at that research institute, he vaguely saw a person wearing the uniform of a special department!
A good guess and an even worse guess were coiling in his mind, and he seemed to be stunned by these two guesses, and instantly broke out in a cold sweat! How weird is Ling Xiao thinking when he suddenly appeared in the villa surnamed Zhu today, but he also took him to find Zou Yun!
If it was a bad guess, then he was not far from being wiped out, and it was very likely that Ling Xiao had already suspected what he knew! Receiving the medicine bottle in the town, how could it be so coincidental that he happened to be looking for a house in his community, and happened to live downstairs from him, thinking about it, Ling Xiao seemed to have been approaching him, teaching him to play, caring about his whereabouts, and understanding the people he came into contact with... But a child from an ordinary family, even if he knows anything, he doesn't need someone from a special department to check it, first, he has no background, and second, as long as he doesn't say that the probability of others knowing about rebirth is almost zero, just touching a medicine bottle, it's worth their trouble to get close to themselves? The logic of this guess does not make a lot of sense.
Another guess is that Ling Xiao does not belong to the people who developed the monster, he came to investigate this matter, so it can be guessed that it is a group of people who developed the monster, not the state that ordered it, and it cannot be exposed; The state didn't know about this plan, but it faintly noticed some clues, so it sent people from special departments to investigate, including Ling Xiao. And the medicine bottle received in the town, and the encounter at the villa surnamed Zhu can be argued, Wang Ren prefers to believe this speculation, because that bad guess is simply desperate, and there is almost no way out. But why did Ling Xiao get close to himself and be so kind to himself? Wang Ren thought about it but didn't get an answer, he was worried in his heart, and he was very afraid that it was the first guess, so this unanswered thought had been stuck in his heart and made him uneasy!
Ling Xiao and Zou Yun talked almost all night, except for the specific number of Zou Yun's body, everything else had basically been answered.
People from the Zou family!
Ling Xiao doesn't care much about those bad things, and occasionally hears the eldest brother mention a sentence or two, saying that the only son of the Zou family is not brilliant, and the illegitimate son is in the limelight everywhere. A year ago, the only son who was originally studying at A University disappeared for no apparent reason, but I didn't expect it to be here.
The agreement reached between Ling Xiao and Zou Yun is: Zou Yun's physical abnormalities and how he was rescued and where he was rescued must be concealed, and in exchange Zou Yun will cooperate with a qiē test, and his physical condition will also be informed, but it must be kept secret, and personal freedom cannot be restricted.
But Zou Yun also said another thing.
'Don't rush to test my body, I'm majoring in finance and minoring in medicine, I'm very good at medicine, you don't have to find someone to come here, as long as you can get specific equipment, I can provide it. And do you have someone you can trust? The one you grew up with? Or other experts who are under suspicion? I have to remind you that people change, and your hair is my brother, and he happens to be within my suspicions.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao frowned, he didn't want to believe that the friends he grew up with had anything to do with these things, but he had to be cautious, this research is not something that ordinary people can do, many people and excellent people are precisely the most doubtful.
The order he received was to "investigate the research organization of these drugs", and the higher authorities said that it was organized, and that a real yàn of this scale was not something that ordinary people could do at all. He didn't expect to encounter this situation, found the real yàn body, but there is no way to deal with the real yàn body, the special department has always been as long as the results, the resources that can be provided are provided, if the real yàn body is reported, maybe the upper side will accept it and deal with it well, someone above has set up a group research specifically for drugs, but at the same time it also said that 'this group' is not credible!
He has reported it to the special person, but he has not responded yet, but he has only received a vague answer of 'let it go first, protect it, do a good job of confidentiality, the case must continue to be investigated, and the real body cannot be revealed'. As long as you make sure that there is no danger in the real body and supervise it well, it is fine, but it stands to reason that the consistent practice is to be imprisoned and observed, why is it so careless this time? Isn't incarceration safe enough within the department? Or do you have other plans? Ling Xiao didn't want to think about it so much, he just had to carry out the order.
He had already called Fa Xiao before talking to Zou Yun yesterday, and asked him to come to H City, send a novel to see if there was time to reply the next day, he didn't say what it was, only said that H City was very fun to let him come over to gather, Fa Xiao knew that he must be hiding something, but he didn't break it, only said that it looked at the time, and generally said that it would come, but he received a call the next day and said that he was really not available and couldn't come. That's just right, so as not to waste another rhetoric.
Early in the morning, he heard someone knocking on the door, and saw Wang Ren standing at the door through the cat's eye.
He opened the door, Wang Ren didn't look very good, Ling Xiao let him in, Wang Ren sat on the sofa and was silent for a while, and kept looking at Ling Xiao silently, looking like he wanted to say something and stopped, Ling Xiao was confused by him like this.
His expression was a little scared and a little expectant, and finally spoke: "... I—" He didn't seem to organize his words, just said one word and then shut up.
Ling Xiao was suddenly a little nervous, and he couldn't help but have a guess in his heart, should he....not be here to confess!? As soon as this idea came out, it started to run in my head like a wild horse on the loose! He must have sensed my goodness, right? We've all been so close: he remembered yesterday in the tearoom... No! Stop! It's almost a stone to think about! But why was Wang Ren's expression a little afraid? Am I that scary? No... Ahren! Look at me, I'm not scary at all! It doesn't matter if you kick it!
Wang Ren looked at Ling Xiao's eyes changing several times, and he still had an expectant expression as if waiting for him to speak? Wang Ren's heart sank again, and with the idea of dying early and surviving early, he finally let go and said, "I found that Brother Ling was quite good to me, why?" ”
In fact, this question is very awkward to ask and very difficult to answer.
But seeing Ling Xiao looking at him with burning eyes, he asked rhetorically with an obvious smile in his tone: "Is it?" How did Ah Ren find out? ”
If it was an ordinary day, Wang Ren would definitely see some clues in his eyes, but after a night of ideological struggle, all kinds of messy and terrible thoughts came out, and a person who usually doesn't laugh suddenly laughed, and asked with a strange face, 'How did you find out' This is simply the last question! Usually people who are asked no good end, Wang Renxin was cold again, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but his eyes looked directly at Ling Xiao, and asked more frankly: "Brother Ling knew that I lived here, so he moved here on purpose?" What is your purpose? ”
The other party chuckled lightly and replied ambiguously: "What do you say? Just as you thought in your heart..."
Wang Ren's heart gradually despaired, Ling Xiao's big hand reached over, and the moment he touched Wang Ren's face, he found that the other party trembled slightly for a moment, the touch was delicate and warm skin, and his hands were full of sweat.
Ling Xiao realized that Wang Ren's face was pale, his hair was thin and sticky to his face, and his lips were not bloody, he touched his forehead, it was amazingly hot! He panicked at this time, he patted Wang Ren's face lightly, and asked anxiously, "Hey! Ahren! Are you okay? ”
The other party just looked at him, his eyes were a little dim, as if he didn't hear what he was saying, and his expression seemed to have a hint of despair.
Seeing Wang Ren like this, Ling Xiao suddenly felt a little scared, he hurriedly called 120, and thought that he might drive faster, but at this time Wang Ren stood up and started walking, his steps were a little weak, but he was very firm in the direction: he wanted to get out of the house.
As soon as Ling Xiao turned around, he saw that Wang Ren actually started to walk by himself, as if he was stunned, he shouted the other party's name, and picked him up as soon as he grabbed his hand.
At this time, Zou Yun came out, he had already walked very naturally, but he still couldn't speak, but asked 'what's wrong' with his lips, Ling Xiao replied impatiently with a sentence of "he has a fever" and went out with Wang Ren in his arms.
didn't expect Zou Yun to come out with him, with the intention of going to the hospital together.
Ling Xiao didn't stop it, and it was okay for multiple people at this time, because if he wanted to drive, someone must take care of Wang Ren.
Ling Xiao saw Zou Yun holding Wang Ren and putting his hand on Wang Ren's forehead from the rearview mirror, although he knew that Zou Yun's body temperature could cool down, but this action was still unpleasant.
Ling Xiao drove to the hospital in less than twenty minutes, almost all of them stepping on the red light line. Wang Ren was very light, he picked him up easily, from the parking lot to the emergency room in less than a minute, a temperature check, 39.8 °.
After the emergency treatment, the doctor came over and asked, "Who is the family?" ”
Ling Xiao hurriedly said: "I, it's me, I'm his brother!" ”
The doctor frowned and asked, "When did he start having a fever?" ”
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment and shook his head.
The doctor said, "He should have been burning for a long time, why did he find out now?" You may need to be hospitalized. ”
"Live... Hospitalization! I'll go through the formalities. ”
Ling Xiao went through the hospitalization procedures, the room was VIP, Wang Ren was already getting an injection, he burned so badly but he didn't close his eyes and fell into a coma, he kept his eyes open and awake from beginning to end. When Ling Xiao came, he stared at Ling Xiao, this look Ling Xiao didn't see anything, his eyes were still unblinking, after a while, probably because there was a sleeping ingredient in the potion, he finally closed his eyes and fell asleep.
