In the long corridor, only Zheng Zhu and Yan Xiuze walked slowly one after the other, and only the regular footsteps of the two remained quietly.

"That ......" Yan Xiuze snorted, but still opened his mouth and asked, "Where are we going?" ”

"Sign the agreement." Zheng Zhu didn't look back and replied casually.

may feel that the sentence is not detailed enough, and added: "The exemption agreement probably means that if you are killed by us, you will not be responsible." ”

Hearing this, Yan Xiuze's face turned green all of a sudden, and he was already thinking about whether to go home before he started treatment.

Zheng Zhu, who was walking in front, seemed to be able to sense Yan Xiuze's nervous mood at this time, suddenly stopped, turned his head and smiled: "Don't be nervous, it's too late for you to regret it now...... While there is still some way to go, let me tell you about the source of 'Howell syndrome'. ”

……

"I don't know if you remember, three years ago, the Northern Hemisphere ushered in the largest and longest meteor shower of the century......"

Yan Xiuze was stunned for a moment and said, "I remember, I reported this incident in the news before. ”

"But what does this have to do with 'Howell syndrome'?"

"In fact...... I don't know what the specific connection is between the two...... Zheng Zhu paused, and then continued: "It's just that the world's first case of 'Howell syndrome' appeared after that meteor shower. ”

"Since then, hundreds of people around the world have been documented to have developed the condition...... Interestingly, almost all of these patients are from the northern hemisphere. Several of these patients from the Southern Hemisphere have been confirmed to be in the Northern Hemisphere at the time of the meteor shower. ”

Yan Xiuze's eyes widened: "There is such a mysterious thing? ”

Ignoring his surprise, Zheng Zhu seemed to be caught in his memories, and continued to himself: "We have also spent a lot of time to get some meteorites that fell on the earth for detailed testing, but we have not found any clues related to 'Howell syndrome', so whether the appearance of this disease is directly related to that meteor shower has not yet been determined. ”

"But the only thing that is certain is that 'Howell syndrome' is indeed an incurable disease that can kill people at present...... Judging from the only a few hundred people who have been diagnosed around the world, your luck ......" Zheng Zhu laughed: "It's really bad." ”

It's just that Yan Xiuze didn't show sadness as Zheng Zhu expected, but there was a look of incomprehension on his face.

Zheng Zhu was stunned and asked, "What, what am I talking about?" ”

Yan Xiuze frowned, and asked with some confusion: "There is something I don't quite understand... Although there are only a few hundred patients of Howell syndrome in the entire world...... But after all, it is a terminal disease that can cause death, so why has there been no news of this disease in the world so far? I've never heard of this disease! ”

Zheng Zhu was really surprised this time, he didn't expect that the college student in front of him, who had not yet graduated, would be able to think of this point that was easily overlooked: "It's very keen." ”

"Yes, although this disease has been detected for so long, it is impossible for the general public to have access to any news related to this disease."

"Why...... Naturally, governments have unanimously blocked the news. When he said this, Zheng Zhu's face had a sneer with obvious mockery, as if he was not particularly interested in the government's behavior of blocking the news.

"Uh...... So why block the news? Yan Xiuze asked.

"Well...... Ask less if you shouldn't. Zheng Zhu said lazily: "You are here to treat the disease, not to govern the country." ”

Seeing that Deputy Director Zheng refused to confide in him again, Yan Xiuze had no choice but to keep his mouth shut obediently with a stomach full of questions, and followed him to an unknown place......

……

"Here we are."

The two stopped in front of a security door, Zheng Zhu stepped forward to verify his fingerprints and ID cards, and the insurance door slowly opened with a click.

After Yan Xiuze entered, he found that behind the small safety door, there was actually a very wide hall, and a rectangular metal body was placed in the most conspicuous place in the center of the hall, which looked like a coffin.

Next to the "coffin", at this time, there was a sloppy and unkempt man in a white coat, who was staring at Yan Xiuze who came in.

"Ahem......" Zheng Zhu coughed and introduced to Yan Xiuze: "This is your attending physician and the person in charge of the scientific research direction of our base - Dr. Lin. ”

"Hello Dr. Lin!" Yan Xiuze hurriedly said hello, after all, the other party was his attending physician, in other words, his own life was in his hands now, so he naturally had a better attitude.

Dr. Lin nodded indifferently, and handed the electronic tablet in his hand to Yan Xiuze: "Take a look, sign it if it's no problem." ”

Yan Xiuze took the electronic tablet with some confusion, and found that what was displayed on it was a "Disclaimer" and "Confidentiality Agreement".

"This treatment is extremely risky...... The patient has any adverse consequences or even death...... I am responsible for all of them......"

"This treatment process shall not be disclosed to any unrelated person, otherwise the patient will be held legally responsible......"

……

After carefully reading the two agreements, Yan Xiuze's eyelids jumped fiercely, and he actually had some regrets in his heart, because no matter how he looked at it, the feeling revealed in this agreement was "You are lucky if you are cured, and it is none of my business if you are cured", which made him feel a little frightened.

"Have you finished reading?" Dr. Lin seemed to be in a bad mood and said coldly.

"Uh...... Isn't this agreement a little too ......?"

"Love to govern, not to govern!" Before Yan Xiuze finished speaking, he was unceremoniously interrupted by Dr. Lin: "I still have a lot of experiments to do, you can be sharp." ”

Yan Xiuze finally understood at this time that he had no possibility of life except for this path, so after a battle between heaven and man, he gritted his teeth and wanted to sign these two agreements.

"Uh...... How do you sign this electronic version? ”

"Slide to the bottom and press a handprint."

While Yan Xiuze was looking at the agreement, Zheng Zhu secretly walked up to Dr. Lin and whispered, "How are the first six?" ”

"It's all a failure." Dr. Lin's face was not very good-looking, and he said in a low voice.

"They ......," Zheng Zhu hesitated.

"Do you need to ask!" Dr. Lin scolded in a low voice, "There is only one result of failure!" That's dead! ”

"Sign the ......" Yan Xiuze, who had pressed his handprint, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked up at the two who were still whispering.

"Take your clothes off." Dr. Lin, who had taken the electronic tablet, pointed to the "coffin" placed in the center of the hall, and said unceremoniously: "Lie in this life-support cabin, I will treat you immediately!" ”
