Chapter 22: The Heart of Man and the Guarantee
"A newcomer, and a doctor of biology, going to buy fresh monster body parts from black market merchants?"
Yang Yun chewed Chu Xuan's words, his brows furrowed deeply: "What the hell is this mission?" ”
"Literally, because I'm currently running out of monster brains in my hands, so I need new supplements, the more the better."
Chu Xuan replied indifferently, as if he was talking about what to eat tonight: "Judging from the information displayed in the confidential database, the entire PPDC has long had an extremely close connection with the largest monster black market merchant in Asia, and Marshal Panticost gave him the exclusive right to recover all the monster wreckage in the whole of Asia in order to seek his financial support. It is precisely because of his financial support that PPDC was able to barely maintain the normal operation of the entire Shattered Dome base. ”
"I'm not asking you this."
For Chu Xuan's answer, Yang Yun just shook his head, he crossed over the corpse of a monster that had been dissected beyond its face, and looked at Chu Xuan: "Chu Xuan, you should understand, this kind of trivial matter that only needs Zhan Lan to scan through mental power can be done, why would you let a newcomer who has just entered the main god space, and a doctor of biology who looks a little crazy, do it?" I remember Qi Tengyi said before, this guy seems to be a fan of monsters, right? ”
Yang Yun's memory has always been good, although it was only Qi Tengyi who mentioned it in the collective memory, he still remembered this "Ye Gong" of Ye Gong and the dragon. But why Chu Xuan put him and Xie Luyin together to carry out the task that the Zhongzhou team could complete without much effort was something that Yang Yun couldn't figure out anyway.
"Because they want a chance to prove themselves."
Chu Xuan said calmly: "Dr. Newton-Gaisler has put forward a very interesting idea, he wants to try to make a neural bridge with the monster's brain, which is the 'synaesthesia' of the mecha hunter. ”
"It's a pity that I've been too busy during this time, so I haven't seen his report, and because all the monster organs and tissues have been confiscated by me. So he was impatient and lacked key materials to support his experiments, so he found me and expounded his scientific theory, and after listening to his speculation, I felt that this was an experiment that could be tried. ”
"However, it was not a coincidence that he arrived, and I had just used up the last monster's brain just ten minutes before he found me. This may also be the reason for the reversal of time and space, so that some small probability events continue to happen around me. ”
Chu Xuan took out a pair of gloves from the cabinet and put them on, and seeing that one of the gloves had a small hole in it, he threw both gloves into the trash can without thinking, and took out a new one: "Therefore, I handed over Marshal Panticost's black market door to him and asked him to complete this task." I gave him enough money and promised to bring back the one I needed, and all the leftovers would go to him. ”
"What about Xie Luyin? Why would you choose her over a random PPDC member? Yang Yun stared at the expression on Chu Xuan's face: "And you asked me to leave the Shattered Dome Base at this time, did you deliberately spend me?" ”
"Dr. Newton has always been unpopular within PPDC, and few people are willing to deal with a monster fanatic, which has led to him having few friends. And when the room was assigned, he and Xie Luyin's room happened to be not far away. ”
After checking that there were no gaps in the gloves, Chu Xuan replied: "And Xie Luyin is good at getting along with other people, and after she learned about the corresponding situation from Dr. Newton, she took the initiative to find the overlord and apply to me, hoping to accompany Dr. Newton on this trip." In fact, her application came first, and I made the decision to let you travel later. ”
"That's what you agreed to?" Yang Yun said in disbelief: "You didn't even discuss it with us beforehand? ”
"I have already obtained the consent of Zheng Zhe and Zhan Lan before, but you are the last one to know, and it is not too late for you to discuss it now."
Putting on his gloves, Chu Xuan replied flatly: "In fact, Xie Luyin expressed her strong will, she wanted to find out if she existed in this completely different world. In Xie Luyin's own words, Hong Kong Island is her home turf, where she has spent all the time of her life, and she also knows the rules of the game for those black markets and underground gangsters. She felt that she had no problem completing this task, and she was also eager to prove her worth, to prove that as a newcomer who had just entered the main god space, she could show her own strengths and enhance her importance in the eyes of the veterans. ”
"Yu Qing, this is Xie Luyin's own application, and it is her own wish to help Dr. Newton and return to Hong Kong Island; Yu Li, she expressed a strong confidence in herself, and with her skills, unless she was fired by a submachine gun or something, there was no problem in saving her life. So in every way, I have no reason to refuse her. ”
“…… Is this a form of PTSD? ”
Hearing the reason given by Chu Xuan, even Yang Yun couldn't find the slightest problem, so he could only complain: "Proving one's worth or something, it sounds like the kind of killing tool that has been cultivated since childhood, in order to accomplish some kind of goal set by others......
"On the psychological side, that's another topic."
Chu Xuan shook his head, and when he was ready, he picked up the scalpel: "I will let Zhan Lan keep the mental power scan to prevent them from being in danger, are there any other questions?" ”
- No, but I always think you have other schemes.
Even if Chu Xuan said this, Yang Yun still didn't erase his suspicious gaze towards Chu Xuan. Even if he couldn't find any fault, but this matter had a strange atmosphere from beginning to end, Xie Luyin's unauthorized decision, Chu Xuan's concealment of the consensus reached by himself and Zheng Zhe and the others in advance, how to look at it like an action to spend on himself, and Chu Xuan, who was extremely controlling, unusually allowed the newcomer to act freely......
It is precisely because he understands Chu Xuan and his strange trust in Chu Xuan that Yang Yun can clearly affirm that this guy in front of him must be planning something, but he has not seen through his layout for the time being.
"Chu Xuan, I hope this is not another test of your heart, because people's hearts can't stand the test, and I don't want the things in the alien to happen again......"
After thinking about it, Yang Yun could only say like this: "Chu Xuan, I won't ask why you chose to pass Xie Luyin's application at this delicate point in time, and let me go on a field trip. I'll just ask you one thing, can you guarantee that you don't mean that? ”
“……”
After listening to Yang Yun's words, Chu Xuan's gaze finally moved away from the anatomical specimen of the monster, and he stared straight into Yang Yun's eyes, and Yang Yun also looked at him without fear. It wasn't until half a day later that Chu Xuan lowered his head again and replied, "No problem......
"I can assure you that I'm not testing people's hearts."
