Chapter 024: New Team Members (3)

On the way to the garage, Zhou Dong thought to himself that this time he was helped by Anna again, if it weren't for her and her friend Nicole, William's special identity and intelligence as a mutant would not be so easy to deal with. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Nicole sat on Anna's Chevrolet, and William sat on Zhou Dong's red BMW.

On the road, William in the passenger seat picked his alkali-resistant nostrils with his fingers without grace, and then popped out a mess of dirty things stuck to the car door, he took the opportunity to observe Zhou Dong's expression, but the other party's face did not change, as if he didn't care at all, which made him frown.

"Hey, tell me, what's your real purpose?"

"Did you find it? No, if you find it, then you don't need to ask me. ā€

"You're such a nuisance, if it weren't for the presence of two beautiful women, I wouldn't be here."

William snapped and closed the laptop, feeling a little irritable, even if he hacked into the Pentagon's database again just now, he still didn't find any useful information about the black-haired young man in front of him, those superficial personal information were all bullshit forgeries, and he could see at a glance that to that extent.

"I was going to watch you for a few days before deciding whether to take action, but now it seems that you are more innocent and childish than I thought, and I can see through it at a glance."

"Hey! Just blow it, I'm a super genius, a mortal like you can see through me? ā€

"There's no need to hide your uneasiness like this, you can be proud of your mutant identity, it's just a branch of human evolution."

"You!"

"Relax, don't clench your fists so tightly, I've already said it, you're still too simple, you can see through it at a glance."

Zhou Dong drove seriously without squinting, but it seemed that all the subtle changes in the car could not escape his observation.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

William was silent for a moment, instinctively fearful of this calm-looking man.

"Oh, the restaurant has arrived, let's have dinner first, after all, thinking is also a very physically demanding thing."

Zhou Dong was unhurried, calm and calm like a hunter with a hound, tracking down a prey that had been wounded by an arrow in the leg, just waiting for time to make victory completely tilted in his favor.

After everyone had a sumptuous Japanese dinner, Anna drove Nicola home first, leaving only Zhou Dong and William.

"William, let's get down to business...... Well, it's a bit of a lot. ā€

After Zhou Dong finished speaking, William found that the other customers around him suddenly left the store one by one, and the employees of the store hung the sign of the temporary closure at the door, and then began to tidy up the store by themselves as if they didn't see the two of them.

Mind control!

William's eyes widened, he was not stupid, and finally understood Zhou Dong's intention.

"You're a mutant too!"

"Yes, on behalf of the Ministry of Mutant Affairs, one of the national government agencies, I would like to formally extend an invitation to you to take up a position."

William immediately grinned when he heard Zhou Dong's official statement.

"If I say no, are you going to arrest me right away and put me in a mutant prison?"

"Oh?! Looks like you know a lot of things. ā€

"Of course, I told you, I'm a genius, and before you found me, there were quite a few big companies that came to book my graduation path."

"Yes, I know, because I'm also a genius from the point of view of ordinary people."

Zhou Dong took a sip of sake and continued: "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, how about listening to the treatment conditions I offer first?" ā€

"I'm sorry, but I prefer to live freely."

William pulled out his chair and tried to get out of here, but the mind-controlled clerks around him made him feel quite uncomfortable.

"It's your freedom, but if you think your life is still free under constant surveillance, then I don't care."

Zhou Dong only used one sentence to pull back William, who had put his hand on the doorknob.

"What do you mean by that?" William's face was not good.

"It's not a threat, before I took office, the Department of Mutant Affairs and the Pentagon joined forces, and they were already monitoring you in real time, and every week there was information about you uploaded to our database, so to speak, as a mutant, you have no human rights for the time being, and your every move is under the observation of the state machine."

"So, am I breaking the law, or what's wrong?"

"I said, you are a mutant, and in human society, there are no human rights!"

Zhou Dong said calmly, his fingers lightly tapped on the tabletop, and with a charming rhythmic rhythm, William felt that the ground was slowly beating with the rhythm of knocking on the table, and he couldn't help but change his face in shock.

"No, if you join the Department of Mutant Affairs, I promise that this will all improve, and I will ask them to undo their monitoring of you, because all the consequences of your actions will be the responsibility of your boss, me."

Zhou Dong's words made William's heart fall into fearful thinking, he knew very well the power of the state apparatus.

Observing William's reaction, Zhou Dong felt that after the stick of intimidation, he should start giving sweet dream fruits, so he opened his mouth to interrupt William's thoughts and tempted: "Working for the government is a very decent thing, isn't it?" But you and I both know, William, you want more than that, right? ā€

"I don't understand friendship, but I understand interests, I've read several award-winning papers you have published, all about biological gene serum, which is obvious, because the awakening of mutant genes has made you have extraordinary intelligence, but it has also caused this mutation in your body, you want to find a way to change your appearance, and you are not willing to give up the high intelligence brought by the mutant ability that makes you proud, so you have been conducting related research."

Every time Zhou Dong finished speaking, William's face became ugly, these things are not difficult to see, but he is still very unhappy when he is said nakedly.

"You've been doing research alone, and it's certainly not going to be smooth and fast, but as long as you join my team, I can provide you with a lot of research funding and some research data that will make you very happy, and now, I know that there is no evidence, come on, open this memory card and see?"

Zhou Dong took out a memory card from his pocket and handed it to William.

To accept or not to accept, this is already a choice that does not need to be hesitated, William picked it up and plugged it in, began to browse the data inside, and then his face changed with the fluorescence of the screen, revealing more and more surprises.

The information stored in this is taken from all the relevant materials that Stryker's scientific research team has conducted research on many mutants extracted from the base of the Lake Ekari Dam and from the data room, and some of the materials related to the direction that William is currently researching, they are the most fragrant bait.

"I need more!"

William snapped and closed the notebook, and then looked at Zhou Dong with a burning gaze, completely devoid of his previous fears and worries.

"So, what are you going to call me now?"

Zhou Dong slowly retrieved the memory card, snapped his fingers unhurriedly, relieved all the hypnotized restaurant employees, and walked outside the store.

"My boss, you are my sun!"

William immediately chased after him, as if it was a different person, or rather a dog.

"Really, okay, do you need to inform your family or something? I'll have someone handle it at the school, and I need you to get to work as soon as possible. ā€

"I have a lot of personal matters to deal with, maybe a few days."

"As soon as possible."

Zhou Dong asked him to come up and started the car, William, a mutant, had a very cloudy mind color and a strong desire, and he didn't want to see more at all.

It's not difficult to control William, a mutant who began to mutate in his body when he was a teenager, and then grew up in the weird eyes of other people for the next seven or eight years, and it is already remarkable that he has not become a psychologically distorted pervert revenge society, Zhou Dong has investigated, and this is due to the fact that he has a pair of good parents.

It's just that William also put all his energy into changing his body shape, he not only enjoys the benefits of being a mutant, but also hates the physical side effects of mutant abilities, otherwise with his current understanding of biological genetics, it is completely enough to develop a serum for developing mutant genes like young Henry, at the cost of temporarily losing mutant abilities.

Zhou Dong's condition of providing a large amount of research funds is not the key to impressing William, the key is the mutant research materials of Stryker's team obtained from Lake Ekari, which are the most precious treasures.

Because no matter how smart and intelligent William is, just as an ordinary student, there is no way to conduct experimental research on a large number of mutants, so as to obtain a large amount of solid basic research data.

Only people like them can understand the preciousness of those research materials and data that Zhou Dong took away from Lake Ekari in the first place.
