Chapter 82: Night Visit
This can't leak the news, maybe to prevent everyone from being suspicious, or maybe it's because this matter is shady, and it is very likely to be an illegal business.
In addition to hiring people to enter the island, he also brought so many strong bodyguards to protect him, which proves that Mr. Zhou's trip to the island seems to be dangerous.
From the above clues, Song Qingxiao quickly thought of the hint in the sea of consciousness that was similar to the magic sealing array, and then connected to what Shirley said, the biotechnology company under Mr. Zhou's name, researching breakthroughs in biological genes.
And then there were the workers who were hired to carry the animals, and there were quite a few of them, and they were all in good health.
At such a point, if Song Qingxiao still can't guess the signs of something, it is just a lie.
Mr. Zhou's company may have been involved in illegal genetic research, and without formal legal permission, it conducted a batch of experiments more than a decade ago, and now that the experiments are nearing completion, Mr. Zhou is ready to go and reap the results.
This kind of experiment is dangerous, so it requires hiring a large number of people, and because it is illegal, Mr. Zhou mainly selects people who have 'never seen the world' and whose families are poor.
When she mentioned to Shirley that Mr. Zhou was somewhat familiar, Shirley was not surprised at the time and said Mr. Zhou's identity.
Song Qingxiao rolled over and sat cross-legged on the bed, always feeling that she had ignored a serious problem.
She carefully recalled her conversation with Shirley back and forth several times, from the time Shirley came out of the cabin, she helped her with her hands and feet, and smoothly started talking to her, until Mr. Zhou appeared and ended the conversation.
Every time she recalled, the more certain she was that she should have missed something, but when she thought about it, she couldn't remember any of the things she had overlooked.
Shirley's identity is the person who has been helped by Mr. Zhou, and Mr. Zhou's identity can almost be seen here, and what he wants to do has been clarified, and there is a certain danger on the island.
Song Qingxiao has already thought of these situations, what is wrong?
She was still thinking about it, when suddenly she heard a 'dong dong' sound in her ears.
This voice woke Song Qingxiao up at once, causing her to raise her head, and someone seemed to be knocking on the door.
There was noise on the boat, coupled with the sound of the air conditioning outlet in the house, Song Qingxiao was thinking about things concentrating before, and when the first knock on the door sounded, she sat still and didn't move.
The people outside didn't seem to hear the movement in the house, and raised their hands and knocked on the door a few times, 'Knock knock', this time Song Qingxiao heard clearly, it was not his hallucination.
She remained seated, her eyes glued to the door, guessing the identity of the person knocking on the door.
At this time, the boat is lively, and there are many people singing and drinking outside, who will come and knock on the door at this time? Is it to test whether there is anyone in the house, or to come to find yourself.
The personal information of the player participating in the trial is not secret in the trial space, her name is engraved on the ship's house number, and even the electronic lock needs to have her fingerprint scanned.
The people on the ship don't seem to have much intersection, and the trialists and the characters in the scene have not communicated before this, except for Mr. Zhou and other hirers who can match the names and appearances of the hired people, even between the trialists, even if they see the house number, when everyone is on guard against each other, they have not reported their real names and surnames, and they are not familiar with each other, it is difficult to hook their names with themselves.
Could it be that the person who came was Mr. Zhou or Shirley?
She thought of the previous scene, and her face was solemn.
The person outside the door seemed to be very sure that she was in the room, and after Song Qingxiao knocked on the door twice in a row and did not respond, the person outside the door did not leave, and after an interval of more than ten seconds, he knocked again patiently.
It seems that he will not leave until he reaches his goal.
This situation made Song Qingxiao deny her previous speculation, if Mr. Zhou and the others turned back, suspecting that she had heard something from Shirley that she shouldn't know, and wanted to find her, she would not use such a gentle way of knocking on the door, but should be more aggressive.
Song Qing stretched out her legs and went to the ground, and the wire bed made a 'squeak' sound because of her action.
When she put on her slippers and opened the door, Seven lowered her head and raised her hand to knock on the door.
"Huh?"
After Song Qingxiao suddenly opened the door, the light in the room leaked out, illuminating No. 7's face, and when she raised her head, a smile appeared on her face, and her eyes smiled like two moons, which was very pleasing.
"I wanted to knock again, but I didn't expect you to open the door."
As he spoke, Probe Seven glanced into the house, and the layout of everyone's room should be the same, the house was small, and it was clear at a glance that there were no other people hiding inside.
Song Qingxiao's hair was slightly wet, and she had already changed her clothes, and it seemed that she was ready to sleep.
Seven quickly retracted his gaze and asked with a smile:
"Didn't bother you."
"Is there something wrong?"
From what Seven said, she knew that if she didn't open the door, she planned to keep knocking, which means that Seven knew that there was someone in the room and came to look for her.
It wasn't easy to do, she had to at least figure out who everyone else was before she could recognize herself by the name on the door.
This requires not only strong observation and reasoning skills, but also certain communication skills.
"I just want to ask if you drink anything."
No. 7 didn't seem to care about Song Qingxiao's cold face, continued to ask, and handed the hand that had been behind her back to Song Qingxiao when she spoke, she was holding a bottle of mineral water in her hand, which should have been chilled, and before she got close to Song Qingxiao, she had already felt the chill on the bottle.
Her character is very rare among the trialists encountered in the trials that Song Qingxiao participated, everyone guards against each other, it is a matter of life and death, and few people can smile at other competitors who participate in the trials, and they don't even bother to pretend.
"No thanks." Song Qingxiao rejected No. 7's 'kindness', she didn't believe that No. 7's intention was just to ask her if she wanted to drink, even if No. 7 really came with such a purpose, she didn't dare to take No. 7's water and drink it at will.
Her calm precaution made Seven laugh, and after rolling his eyes, he asked:
"By the way, it's so lively outside, so many people, why do you go back to your room alone?"
"I want to get some rest sooner."
After being rejected, No. 7 had no intention of leaving, but leaned against the door of the room, with the intention of having a long chat with her:
"How boring is it to sleep so early? Is there something going to happen tomorrow? ”
