Everyone was busy, Yuechu went back to the laboratory with nothing to do, and continued to set... ah no, to listen to Xiaoqiu's secret.
However, when he entered the storage room, he found that the color of the ball seemed to be a bit dim, and the floating red gauze seemed to be lifeless, drifting slowly and lifelessly.
He couldn't help poking it twice, fell asleep? Why is there no sound
Just when he was puzzled, the little ball suddenly brightened up, and he seemed to be taken aback when he saw him, and rolled into the corner with a grunt.
[…]
Yuechu stretched out his hand to hook him over, pinching him in the palm of his hand, what happened today, unexpectedly there was no sound.
It's a pity that Xiaoqiu has no face, so he can't judge his thoughts from his expression, Yuechu thought with some regret.
"Do you know what happened today? An experimental subject ran out and killed two researchers."
[…]
There was still no response, he raised his eyebrows in disbelief, what happened to Xiaoqiu today
"It stands to reason that such a situation should not have happened. I asked Dr. Jiang, and he also said that there is nothing wrong with the recorded data, but the mutation just happened so suddenly."
[…]
…
Yue Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, and the smile on his face became dangerous.
Did this little ball take the wrong medicine? Suddenly became dumb.
He rested his fingertips on the top of the ball and gave it a jerk, sending him spinning rapidly, a malicious grin on his lips.
Aren't you silent? Then go around a few more times.
[…]
[very sweet...]
Yuechu was taken aback, what was sweet, and only then did he notice that the sugar on the table had disappeared.
He chuckled, this little ball was obviously out of character, he pretended not to care, but secretly ate it in private.
[very gentle.]
gentle? What's the meaning
Yuechu stared at Xiaoqiu, always felt that he was not in the right state today, as if he was drunk, he spoke strangely.
But he was locked in the laboratory for a day, and no one would come in except him, so how could he suddenly have such a strange emotion.
However, Xiao Qiu's fluttering tone soon became cold and hard.
[I will not be confused.]
[Central air conditioning!]
Yuechu blinked, and suppressed a smile so that she didn't laugh directly, revealing the secret that she could hear him.
It was fine just now, but you can get angry when you say you are angry, this little ball is too cloudy and uncertain.
Moreover, he doesn't even know what sweet tastes like, and he even knows about central air-conditioning, but he doesn't know whether he simply refers to air-conditioning or has connotations in it.
But Xiaoqiu is so stupid, he probably doesn't know another meaning.
Yuechu sighed softly, and continued to say: "The meeting will be held later, I guess Jiang Quan will suffer. Others say it's okay, but Lan Yao's reprimand is definitely like a needle prick to him."
[…]
[It deserves it.]
[idiot.]
Yuechu already wanted to help her forehead speechlessly, forget it, today is probably not suitable for communicating with Xiaoqiu.
This guy didn't know what stimulated him, and kept saying inexplicable things.
But before leaving, Yuechu didn't forget to take revenge a little bit, twisted his fingers hard to make the ball spin at a high speed, and then turned and left leisurely.
It wasn't until he left that the ball suddenly stopped spinning, and the red gauze inside flickered on and off, like twinkling bright stars.
[fraud.]
[Blue Star people, you are really hypocritical.]
[I won't be fooled.]
meeting room
Lan Yao's face was as cold as frost, and the chill that pervaded his body made the venue feel like a layer of ice had formed, making people shiver with cold.
Those amber eyes were sharp, sweeping over everyone with bestial aggression.
Everyone reported to him that everything was normal, but in this "normal", such a serious accident occurred in the institute.
Lan Yao's gloomy gaze finally locked on Jiang Quan's body, Jiang Quan couldn't bear the dissatisfaction and displeasure in his eyes, and lowered his head in embarrassment.
Lan Yao said in a deep voice, "Dr. Jiang, you'd better give me an explanation."
Jiang Quan didn't shy away either, stood up and explained the results of his investigation during this period. However, countless studies have shown that this was an accident.
In just a blink of an eye, the virus suddenly mutated and eventually led to an accident.
Lan Yao frowned, full of hostility, totally unable to accept such a perfunctory explanation.
"Is this the result you gave me?"
Jiang Quan pursed his light-colored lips, and held the signature pen tightly in his hand, even if the pen core was pierced into his palm, he didn't feel it.
There was a sense of weakness in his voice: "Sorry..."
Lan Yao's eyebrows were frosty: "What I want is not your apology, but your explanation!
Who can take the responsibility for such a big matter. Since you can't afford this project, don't worry about it in the future! "
Jiang Quan's heart fell to the bottom, and he felt as if he had returned to that cold winter, where he was ruthlessly abandoned by his mother on the bustling street. There are so many people around, but there is no one he can rely on.
Between heaven and earth, there is only loneliness.
Later he met Lan Yao and thought he had a home and relatives again. Even though he has already noticed that something is wrong, he still buries his head in the sand like an ostrich, unwilling to see or listen to anything, thinking that he can pretend to be happy by doing so.
But happiness cannot be faked, and the thin paper of camouflage can be easily torn.
Lan Yao couldn't feel the torment in his heart at all, and tapped the sapphire-colored pen in his hand twice, making up his mind.
He has long been dissatisfied with Jiang Quan's progress, but he has not found a suitable person to replace him.
Lan Yao's cold eyes swept over Yuechu without any trace, but now with Yuechu, Jiang Quan seemed redundant.
Yuechu's ideas are more in line with his requirements, but his qualifications are still young, at least he will be suppressed by Jiang Quan for a long time, and he will not be able to fully control the laboratory. This means that there is no way to speed up the progress of Yuechu's research.
Lan Yao couldn't wait, he was too eager to get the value of Pearl Virus.
In fact, this accident is not a bad thing in his opinion, at least if it is used properly, it can completely pull Jiang Quan down.
But after all, he is the child he grew up with, Lan Yao will arrange a deputy position for him, let him assist Yuechu. In this way, Yuechu is like a tiger with wings added, so it can naturally exert greater value.
The cold white light hit Lan Yao's handsome face like a marble sculpture, making him look like a ruthless king, cruelly deciding the fate of each chess piece.
Jiang Quan understood the meaning in those eyes, smiled wryly and pulled the corners of his mouth, without any further resistance.
Even his life was picked up by Uncle Lan, so there is no reason to complain.
He hung his shoulders, awaiting the final verdict.
Yue Chu's eyes flickered slightly, this Lan Yao was worthy of being the ultimate boss, cruel and merciless.
He couldn't allow Jiang Quan to withdraw at this point, so he was naturally prepared.
Yuechu stood up, picked up the remote control on the table, turned on the projection screen, and connected his USB flash drive to the computer.
His eyes were gentle, and he was neither humble nor overbearing when facing Lan Yao: "Director Lan, Dr. Jiang is indeed inescapable in this incident, but I don't think it's appropriate to attribute all the blame to him alone."
"As the first person on the scene at that time, I was shocked by the severity of the accident. Not only to ensure everyone's safety, but also to avoid such problems from recurring in the future, I also conducted a small investigation."
"Dr. Jiang's dereliction of duty lies in relaxing his vigilance and ignoring the potential risks of this unknown virus, but this is only an indirect reason, and it can not even be said to be the reason. Because this virus is mysterious and weird, no one can understand him in the early stage of the experiment. all properties of the
"And the immediate cause..."
Yuechu looked indifferently at a person who was also sitting in the venue: "Researcher Zhang, where did you go between 8:30 and 9:30?"
Researcher Zhang, who was called by him, was covered in sweat and stood up tremblingly, but couldn't say a word.
Yuechu didn't need him to answer, she just opened the video, and what was played in it was exactly the situation in the surveillance record.
The screen shows that Researcher Zhang, who was supposed to be in charge of monitoring the experimental subjects, has left his post, leaving only his assistant Xiao Fang in the lab.
Xiao Fang had just arrived, so he couldn't figure out the situation at all, so he naturally missed the data changes when the virus mutated.
The experimental subject went berserk, and the first one attacked him. At this time, Researcher Zhang was still squatting in the toilet playing with his mobile phone, so he didn't know that something serious had happened.
After the follow-up investigation, he deliberately concealed it, only saying that the experimental subject attacked Xiao Fang first, so he had the opportunity to escape in the chaos.
Jiang Quan, a nerd, only focused on researching data, and never thought of this level at all. But Lan Yao, who knew the situation, secretly suppressed Lan Yi's report, and forcibly pinned the crime on Jiang Quan.
Lan Yao looked at Yue Chu with deep eyes, he thought he had everything, but he did not expect Yue Chu's reaction.
His wishful thinking was shattered, he should have been angry, but seeing Yuechu's tenderness, with his own persistence and principles, fighting hard to protect Jiang Quan, there was nothing but helplessness in his heart.
Forget it, since Yue Chu wants Jiang Quan to stay, then he will stay.
but…
Deep thought flashed across Lan Yao's eyes, he had clearly ordered Lan Yi to destroy the surveillance records, how could it still appear in Yue Chu's hands.
As for Lan Yi, who was standing outside the door, he gently covered his face with a pure white handkerchief, inhaled deeply the faint fragrance from it, and his brown eyes revealed a tinge of blood as if reflecting light.
All the beauties came to him personally to ask for it, so how could they not give it.
After Yuechu finished speaking, she looked at Lan Yao, "Director Lan, what do you think?"
Lan Yao looked back at him expressionlessly, but the eyes that looked at him were as soft as the wind and as clear as water, and they would not be frightened away by the ice at all. On the contrary, when the cold ice meets the warmth, it can only melt in the end.
"Since Professor Yue has found out the truth, let's follow the normal procedure. From now on, researcher Zhang will be dismissed and will provide information to the police before conviction. As for Dr. Jiang, he will be fined for one year's salary. I hope he will be more careful and cautious in the future. .”
Satisfied, Yuechu patted Jiang Quan on the shoulder as he walked past him, signaling that he could speak.
Jiang Quan trembled slightly, the place he touched seemed to have grown grass, which made him scratch his heart and feel uncomfortable.
He put the signature pen on the table, the sharp tip was still slightly stained with blood.
Jiang Quan was not stupid, how could he not have thought of Lan Yao's cruelty, probably in Uncle Lan's eyes he was just a usable pawn, once there was a problem with the pawn, he could throw it away at any time.
The fragile cover was torn apart mercilessly, revealing the bloody truth, making him feel as if he was kneeling in a world of ice and snow, chilling to the bone.
Probably only a gentle and strong person like Yuechu would be considerate and considerate of others.
He raised his head, his voice was cold, like a jade strike: "Professor Yue discovered that the virus is contagious after mutation, and enters the human body through the bite wound of the experimental subject's teeth, continuously infecting cells."
"The injured researcher has all been isolated, and lesions have appeared with different symptoms, and they need to be observed."
Yuechu was slightly stunned, and glanced at Jiang Quan, but he avoided him coldly.
This idiot is too honest.
Lan Yao's eyes brightened, this is really unpleasant news.
