Chapter 35: The Rebellious Doctor

The news that Sun Guangzhong had fallen into a deep coma spread throughout the organization.

As the original developer of the EL series of drugs and the founder of the organization, American Brian Harris had to come to the underground prison to supervise and take charge of the drug research and development in place of Sun Guangzhong.

The EL-27 R&D area is located on the lower five floors of the underground prison (hereafter referred to as Area Y) and is the heart of the entire prison. The area is heavily protected and generally only accessible to R&D personnel and medical staff. Even Professor Sun's personal assistant, Zhong Xin, and even the prison warden, Tang, had no right to interfere with the experimental work in Area Y.

On the night of September 21, 2015, the small lecture hall in District Y was full. On the podium, a polite young man wearing glasses and a white lab coat is summarizing the progress of the recent period of work in fluent English. This was the first time he had presented in front of Brian and the entire R&D staff. It is also through this opportunity that many people really get to know this usually silent and melancholy genius R&D - Dr. Qin Yu.

That's right, he is Qin Yu, the party in the "8.14 disappearance case". When everyone thought that something had happened to him and that he had even died in Huangquan, he hid in the deepest part of the underground prison, no more than a hundred meters away from his best friend Gu Li.

It's just that Gu Yu didn't know that Qin Yu had been hiding here, quietly engaged in the research of EL-27, and Qin Yu would not have thought that the coordinates he had inadvertently fallen could lead Gu Song to such a place.

As for why he suddenly disappeared from the hospital, and why he hid here and did not contact his family, all this dates back to the beginning of July, when Qin Yu first heard about the existence of the underground prison.

At that time, Bell's condition had progressed to the point where it was urgent, and his life was in danger. In order to cure the bell, Qin Yu made a deal with Brian for a moment of brain fever: as long as the company contributed money and efforts to cure the bell's disease, he would immediately join the organization, even if it was an inhumane human trial, he agreed to participate.

In fact, the research and development of EL series drugs has been carried out in an orderly manner, whether it is the US pharmaceutical headquarters or the Chinese branch, the work of the animal testing team has never stopped. After graduating with a Ph.D., Qin Yu came to Ryan Pharmaceutical, and it didn't take long for him to join the research work of the animal testing group.

He would never have imagined that while he was still injecting drugs with mice in the company's laboratory, some researchers had quietly moved to the deep mountains and forests to begin inhumane human trials. In the name of scientific research, they describe themselves as great and noble, but in fact they are only committing crimes by means of science.

After the bell's hospitalization procedures and treatment plan were all arranged, Qin Yu's mind gradually calmed down. He regretted the stupid decision he had made on the spur of the moment. At the beginning, he promised Brian that when Lingdang's condition improved slightly, he would go to Liangshan to participate in the trial. However, as the departure date approached, his heart began to retreat.

Finally, one day, he couldn't bear the huge pressure and decided to ask Sun Guangzhong for help, hoping that the other party could show him a way.

Sun Guangzhong was very sympathetic to Qin Yu's plight, but considering many complex factors, he still persuaded Qin Yu earnestly, "As the saying goes, eating people is soft-mouthed, and taking people is short-handed. Now that you've accepted the benefits of the company, you have to keep your promises. ”

The simple-minded Qin Yu did not realize the seriousness of the problem, and still wanted to repay the debt he owed in other ways. Sun Guangzhong changed his previous mildness and warned him very seriously: "It's not a matter of money. Because you already know the secrets of the organization, it's too late to quit. ”

"But what they did was against the principles of heaven, and I don't want to be an accomplice to the criminal organization."

"And what do you want? Do you think that if you are a deserter now, the people of the organization will let you go? ”

"I ......" Qin Yu looked at Professor Sun speechlessly, not knowing how to answer.

Sun Guangzhong sighed helplessly, and kindly reminded: "Listen, child, don't let the second person hear those words just now." I can forgive you for being reckless, but not others. Go to work with peace of mind, that's all for today. ”

Qin Yu nodded silently and stopped talking.

He understood what Sun Guangzhong meant, and he also knew that he had no way out. It's all his fault that things have gotten to this point. Regardless, his daughter's condition was getting better day by day, and he saw the smile on his wife's sad face finally showing a long-lost smile, and he felt that the sacrifice he had made was not entirely meaningless.

However, although Qin Yu and Sun Guangzhong were silent about the events of the day, the organization quickly learned of Qin Yu's repentance and thought that he was suspected of betraying the organization.

On the night of August 14, 2015, Qin Yu spent a short but pleasant time with his daughter as usual. As he left the ward and walked in the underground parking lot of the hospital, he suddenly felt a large, powerful hand covering his mouth and nose from behind. As a pungent burst of ether volatiles was inhaled into his respiratory tract, Qin Yu's eyes darkened, and he lost consciousness in an instant.

When he woke up, he was strapped into the trunk of an off-road vehicle bound to an underground prison deep in Liangshan, Sichuan Province, a secret human testing base.

In this way, Qin Yu helplessly became a "prisoner" of the organization. He was restricted in his personal liberty and never left Area Y from the moment he entered the prison. Later, he learned that if it weren't for the fact that he had a talent that no one else could replace, and the pilot project urgently needed him to join, he would have been wiped out by the organization long ago.

For him, this dark life seemed to have no end. Although he had the fate of hundreds of test subjects in his hands, he would not end up much better than the prisoners in his cell.

Reduced to this, he did not dare to expect anyone to find his whereabouts. At one point, he pinned his hopes of being rescued on Professor Sun, the only person he could trust and pour out his bitterness. But now, Professor Sun suffered that tragic car accident, his life and death are uncertain, his illusions are shattered, and his life has gone to an unprecedented desperate situation.

Facing his colleagues in the audience, Qin Yu's expression was cold and numb. He speaks English very fluently, but there is no emotion in his voice.

At the end of the presentation, he turned off the slides, took a deep breath, and said from the bottom of his heart: "Until now, our research in general is a failure. Too many people died from the side effects of drugs. This result is too cruel. And I think there will be a doubling of people die in the same way. We should stop this research as soon as possible,and return to animal experiment. I know some of you will not agree with me,but what we have done are also crimes. We are not much better than those murderers in the jail……”

So far, our research efforts have largely failed. Many of the participants died from the side effects of the drug. This is a very cruel result. I think there will be many more who will die in the same way. We should stop the study as soon as possible and go back to the animal testing group. I know most of you disagree with me, but what we are doing is just as sinful. Maybe we're not much better than the murderers in prison...... )

After these words, there was a brief cold scene in the lecture hall. People looked at each other as if they had heard something incredible. Then, the lecture hall was filled with the sound of people whispering. Some expressed disdain, some were puzzled, some looked at him in amazement, and some bowed their heads in contemplation. None of them openly agreed with him.

"Terminating the trial" means admitting defeat and giving up. They are rooted in this uninhabited mountain with enthusiasm, and they will never give up without making some achievements.

These people are loyal followers who have been "brainwashed" by the organization, and no humanity or justice is worth mentioning in the face of scientific research. They recognize Qin Yu's talent, but they don't want to be "betrayers" like Qin Yu. Their original intention of joining the organization was fundamentally different from Qin Yu's, the former was voluntary, and the latter was forced to be helpless.

Just as people were talking to each other, Brian, who hadn't spoken all night, suddenly stood up and slowly walked to the front of the stage. He wears a white lab coat with the company's name on it, and his dark brown hair is slightly messy. No one would have imagined that this raunchy American man would come from a famous Harrison medical family with tens of billions of dollars in family assets.

Brian has been in China for almost five years, and although he has not studied Chinese systematically, he can also speak less complex sentences in English. He patted Qin Yu's shoulder in a friendly manner, and he didn't seem to be angry about what he said just now.

“Thank for Dr. Qin’s report。 If it weren't for the last few words, Dr. Qin's report would have been even better. Brian smiled, and the audience laughed along. But soon, Brian put on a heavy face and continued, "I'm sure everyone in this room has heard about Prof. Sun's thing. I am very sorry for what happened to him. In order not to delay the progress of the trial work, I decide to stay here with all of you.

"Undoubtedly, you are all the best scientists, and what you do is great and meaningful. Despite the fact that Dr. Qin's personal opinion is different from ours, but it doesn't matter. Whether or not the experiment ultimately succeeds, we will continue to do so. He paused, reopened the slides, cleared his throat and said, "Now I will talk about the work plan in next phase,please listen carefully......"

The presentation lasted nearly two more hours and ended with Brian's concluding remarks. The people in the lecture hall left one after another, and the surroundings gradually fell silent.

Qin Yu lowered his head and silently sorted out the materials on the table, not noticing that in the last row of the lecture hall, a young and beautiful female doctor was looking at him intently.

"Dr. Qin Yu......" After hesitating for a moment, the female doctor finally made up her mind to come to him and asked softly, "Do you really think we should stop this experiment?" ”

"What did you say?" Qin Yu came back to his senses from his contemplation, raised his head suddenly, and looked at the other party in a daze.

The female doctor smiled and raised her voice slightly, "I mean, you also think what we're doing is inhumane and should be stopped as soon as possible, right?" ”

Hearing this, Qin Yu felt shocked, and hurriedly glanced around, "shh ”

"If you dare to say such a thing in front of everyone, what do I have to be afraid of."

"No, you're not like me." Qin Yu stood up straight, revealing an extremely serious expression. "You have a future, you have hope, and I have nothing. As you can see, I was not trusted by the people of the organization from the beginning. In order to take advantage of me, they had to restrict my personal freedom, and I had no luxury of expecting to leave this place alive. ”

"Don't be too pessimistic, maybe things will turn around." The female doctor patted Qin Yu on the shoulder and comforted him. "Although I only learned your name today, I have been noticing you for a long time. To be honest, I admire your talent and courage. I'm just trying to tell you today that you're not the only one who thinks the same way. Maybe the people here are carried away by the research and the benefits that come with it, but I never thought human trials were correct......"

"That's enough." Qin Yu frowned impatiently and said to the female doctor in an almost commanding tone, "Let's stop this topic." Leave this room and try not to contact me in the future. ”

"But......" the female doctor bit her lip unwillingly, "I think it's too painful for you to be locked up here." You are a good person and do not deserve to be treated so unfairly. ”

Qin Yu smiled miserably, tried to ease his attitude and said, "This is my life, I don't blame anyone." ”

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Thank you for your kindness, but I really don't want to bother you."

"Okay then." The female doctor finally stopped insisting. She knew that Qin Yu was doing this to protect her, so she closed her mouth knowingly and nodded goodbye. As soon as she took a few steps, Qin Yu suddenly stopped her, "Wait, I haven't asked you what your name is." ”

The female doctor immediately turned around and gently spit out three words, "Yao Jiangyue." ”

"Doctor Yao." Qin Yu said and took a few steps forward, took off a blue-white jade pendant from his neck, and handed it to Yao Jiangyue's hand, "If you want to help me, then keep this thing for me." In case something happens to me one day, I hope you can give it to my family and tell them that I love them and I'm sorry for them. ”

"I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request."

"Why?" Qin Yu's eyes widened and he asked very puzzled.

Yao Jiangyue replied seriously: "I can help you keep this pendant for the time being, but I prefer that you can hand it over to your family with your own hands." ”
