026 - The Price of Growth

A day later, Chen Chen shook hands with the policeman in front of him, and then walked out of the police station.

Because he was the last person to see Zheng Jian, he was called by the police to talk about a transcript.

Chen Chen didn't hide anything else, he told the other party's original purpose of calling him, as well as the guesses he made.

However, of course, Chen Chen did not say that the other party's death was because he used hypnosis, but said that the other party committed suicide in fear of crime.

Although the police were also surprised by the drama of the whole thing, Chen Chen had an alibi.

Because when the other party jumped off the building, Chen Chen was no longer in Zheng Jian's office.

Later, the police used Chen Chen's speculation to dig out Zheng Jian's laboratory use records a few years ago, and then found out the death case of Zheng Jian's ex-wife, and really came up with a terrifying case-

Three years ago, Zheng Jian used his ex-wife's somatic cells to induce cancer cells in the laboratory, and then infused the cancer cells into his ex-wife's body through intravenous drips, which eventually led to his ex-wife's death from cancer.

However, the sensational case was eventually suppressed by the school.

After all, the impact of this kind of incident on the school and even the entire education sector is too great, and it can even mislead the public, making the public think that cancer is contagious, which can easily cause panic.

As the cause of this incident, Chen Chen and the three were personally received by the president and a group of professors.

"That's how the whole thing went."

Sitting in front of the microphone, Chen Chen looked shy, "Because he coveted the research results of the three of us, Professor Zheng warned me that if I didn't transfer the research results to him, he would not be able to complete the three of us......"

"So what did you do at the time?" The headmaster hurriedly asked.

"At that time, I saw the photo on his desk under the grief and anger in my heart, and learned from Xia Yin that the photo was his ex-wife, so I came to my judgmentβ€”β€”"

Chen Chen said solemnly, "He is afraid of his ex-wife, so he has always turned his photo away from him, intentionally or unintentionally, and why is he afraid of his ex-wife?" I guessed that the death of his ex-wife actually looked like an illness, but it was actually a murder! ”

"What I didn't expect was that after I exposed his murder crime, he cried bitterly, knelt down and begged me not to expose it, as a three-good young man of the Earth Federation, of course I wouldn't agree."

Chen Chen's face was a little afraid, "It's just that I didn't expect that after I left the office, before I had time to call the police, he committed suicide in fear of sin." ”

Opposite Chen Chen and the others, a group of professors, you look at me, I look at you, everyone has a strange look on their faces.

This weirdness is more of a surprise at the whole thing.

A milky hairy boy, with only a few insignificant clues, forced an associate professor in academia to death, although it was because the other party itself was not clean, but there was still a sense of absurdity in everyone's hearts.

"Zheng Jian's suicide, is it because your words are too intense?"

The principal sitting in the center asked again, "Does Xia Yin know about the conversation between you?" ”

"I don't know, because as soon as I called Chen Chen, my mentor asked me to leave first." Xia Yin hurriedly shook her head, looking dazed.

"Zheng Jian is to blame, and the police have already come out with the results, so there is no need to mention this."

Professor Wang Xi on the side took a sip of tea from a beaker and looked at Chen Chen with a smile on his face, "I'm more interested in what the three of you have studied, which actually made Zheng Jianli dizzy, and finally even took his life." ”

"This ......" Chen Chen was even more embarrassed.

"What, I'm afraid I'll also embezzle your research results? With so many people watching, I can't swallow it even if I want to. Seeing Chen Chen's hesitation, Professor Wang Xi was happy.

"Of course not, if you want to see our experimental data, of course it's fine, but our experimental data has become evidence in the case, and there is no way to get it back at the police station for the time being." Chen Chen hurriedly explained.

"What about the papers?" Professor Wang Xi asked again.

"The paper is fine, I put it in the mailbox, and I can read it at any time if Professor Wang wants to read it." Chen Chen hurriedly said.

"Okay, you'll send it to me when the meeting is over, and I want to see what shocking experiments my students have come up with!" Professor Wang Xi burst out laughing.

Obviously, Wang Xi's status in the school is very high, and the matter of Zheng Jian's death was directly passed by in one sentence, and even the principal had to give up and continue to ask questions.

Chen Chen also knew in his heart that this was Wang Xi protecting himself.

As a result, this meeting was interrupted by Wang Xi.

Although this meeting will not really be unfavorable to the three of them, some inquiries and pressure are still indispensable, and Professor Wang Xi's attitude is undoubtedly to open the wings of the calf to protect the three of them.

Professor Wang Xi's move, Chen Chen silently remembered.

Leaving the conference room, Wang Wei suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, "I really didn't expect that we would be received by so many academic experts one day." ”

"My pot." Chen Chen shook his head, "I didn't expect that Zheng Jian to be so psychologically fragile. ”

"What do you call your pot, this is obviously to eliminate harm for the people, okay?"

Wang Wei hurriedly said, "If it weren't for you, the results of our three months of hard work would really be robbed by that Zheng Jian, so what about this character and professor?" ”

Chen Chen looked at the silent Xia Yin and gently patted Wang Wei.

"Ouch, look at my mouth." Wang Wei hurriedly snorted, "Xia Yin, I really don't blame you for this." ”

"Nothing, I'm just a little guilty." Xia Yin shook her head, "If I hadn't said a little more at that time, there would have been no today, and Mentor Zheng wouldn't have died......

"Without you, there are other people who are going to be threatened by this Zheng Jian, Chenzi is to eliminate harm for the people and solve the problem from the root!" Wang Wei said.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Chen Chen no longer paid attention to Wang Wei, who ran back to the car with his mouth full, took out his mobile phone, sent a copy of the paper in the mailbox to Wang Xi, Xia Yin and Wang Wei, and then said to Xia Yin, "I sent the paper to your mailbox, you all take a look, as long as there is no problem, I will go to submit the paper." ”

"I don't have to look at it." Wang Wei patted Chen Chen's shoulder, "I believe in Chenzi." ”

"Me too." Xia Yin nodded, "By the way, how much is the layout fee, I'll transfer it to you." ”

"It's okay, I sent it to Professor Wang Xi, and it is estimated that he can apply for direct advance payment to the school." Chen Chen waved his hand, "I'll go see Professor Wang Xi later, will you go together?" ”

"No, I still have something to do, so I'll go back first."

Xia Yin shook her head, smiled at the two of them reluctantly, and turned to leave.

Xia Yin didn't look very interested. Wang Wei shook his head on the side.

"After all, it's normal to be depressed after the death of the mentor." Chen Chen turned his head, "Are you going with you?" ”

"Don't, what am I doing with a second work, Professor Wang obviously takes a fancy to you."

Wang Wei hammered Chen Chen's shoulder, "I'll go back first, and remember to invite the whole dormitory to eat when I get there!" ”

"It's a deal."

The two tacitly exchanged fists, and then Wang Wei turned around and left.

Looking at the backs of Wang Wei and Xia Yin gradually leaving, Chen Chen sighed silently.

He already felt that between Wang Wei and himself, he had obviously become a lot more alienated.

This is not Wang Wei's intentional alienation, but his own problem.

The absolute sanity and calmness after taking NZT-48 itself was subtly affecting Chen Chen's character.

In addition, there is also the piece of forcing Zheng Jian to death.

Although people don't say it, after all, it is a human life, and when others see Chen Chen, they will naturally be stunned.

These are the reasons why Chen Chen and the others are gradually distanced from each other.

In fact, not only Wang Wei, but also the other two friends in Chen Chen's dormitory.

This is probably what is called growth, right?

Chen Chen understood that the moment he got the USB flash drive, he was destined to stop himself and them as people of the same world.

Or step on the peak, or fall into the dust.

In any case, my life will never be so calm!
