Chapter 1234: Perfectly Evolved
Huo Yao looked at Liu Qian quietly and tutted inside. “Liu, you have changed.”
In the past, Liu Qian used to be a down to earth man. These days, he kept bringing up the cash award and talking about money. It was really too much.
Liu Qian disregarded it when Huo Yao called him by his name directly. “Are you going or not?”
Huo Yao did not want to go to the institution. “Fine then.”
But… he had already used the cash award to bait her. What else could she say?
“In that case, go straight to the administrative office at 1:00 pm. Mr. Jin will take you there. You remember him, right? He cwent with us to the institute previously,” said Liu Qian.
Huo Yao gestured okay before she asked. “Just me?”
Liu Qian cleared his throat and said, “Mr. Qi is going as well.”
“I see.” Huo Yao pursed her lips.
Liu Qian was powerless. “Someone from the department has to go along with you.”
Huo Yao nodded patronizingly. “Uh huh.”
Liu Qian went speechless.
“In that case, I’m leaving,” said Huo Yao.
Liu Qian knew that she did not want to go to the institute and with Qi Hui no less. Since the decision was in Prof Liu’s hands, he could not say no. He sighed without saying a word and waved his hand.
Huo Yao arrived at the administrative office on the dot in the afternoon.
Qi Hui and Mr. Jin were already chatting there. When Qi Hui saw her, he raised his hand and checked his watch.
She was quite on the dot.
Couldn’t she have showed up earlier? Qi Hui frowned. Since Mr. Jin was around, he didn’t react and simply veered his eyes. He said to Mr. Jin, “Now that she is here, let’s go.”
Mr. Jin nodded.
Before long, they got into the car.
After getting into the car, Huo Yao put on her earphones and played video games without listening to Qi Hui and Mr. Jin’s conversation.
A text message notification appeared on Huo Yao’s phone. She tapped on it after she was done with her video game.
Lei Xiao said: [Get this. I have insider information that the National Academy of Medicine is going to produce the analysis solution in large quantities for experimentation.]
If they wanted to produce it on a large scale, they would need lots of subjects for human testing. This was the standard protocol for any medicine. Sadly, the experiment was intended to alter the human genetic structure.
Huo Yao frowned upon seeing the text message. She composed a reply: [Are you people insane?]
Lei Xiao was eating. The moment he saw her response, he made his stand clear: [I have nothing to do with this. I was not involved.]
He could tell that Huo Yao was not a big fan of the experiment.
Huo Yao replied: [Humph.]
Lei Xiao’s cheek twitched: [Are you angry?]
Huo Yao looked out of the car window with her eyes utterly cold. When Lei Xiao sent another text message, she finally veered her eyes.
Lei Xiao wrote: [Some sacrifices have to be made in the name of Science. Once you get used to it, you will get over it.]
Lei Xiao was a virus researcher, but he had to conduct similar testing as well. There was no avoiding it.
Initially, only animal testing was conducted. He had seen patients suffer unbearable pain from his medicine during the second phase of human testing.
Huo Yao asked: [Does the National Academy of Medicine have support from some foreign medical institutes?]
Lei Xiao was obsessed with research, so he hardly paid any attention to the National Academy of Medicine.
He simply replied: [I suppose? Experiments like this tend to require a lot of collaboration. That way things would be easier.]
After the last text message, Lei Xiao stopped talking about human testing.
He changed the subject and said: [Oh yes. Apparently, there are people in this world with special physical conditions, giving them particularly high physical indicators. As far as I understand, they are perfect specimens to become drug test subjects since they are perfectly evolved.]
