N-A-A Chapter 56 Losing My Beloved Forever
Chapter 56 Losing My Beloved Forever
Xu Su raised his hand and waved, and G4 and another team member lifted Chen Jin, who had been knocked unconscious by the electric shock, and threw him into a large collection box.
This guy sneaked into the tent with a dagger; it was clearly premeditated.
Whether the intention was simply to stab Zite or to kill him is still uncertain, but it is certain that this is a ticking time bomb.
Attempted assault, even if taken to the police station, will at most result in a few days of detention. Of course, this is a matter for the judicial department and has nothing to do with Blue Shield.
However, it's not feasible to send a special car to take this guy back to the city to face legal consequences. He can only be detained temporarily to prevent further trouble.
The box was completely sealed, but it was equipped with an oxygen supply and temperature control system, so there was no problem keeping the person alive.
Cao Yingchong and Ji Chenyu stared at Chen Jin with unfriendly expressions, while Yue Wanwan looked at Qi Te nervously: "Are you injured?"
"I'm fine."
Qi Te shook his head, his eyes slightly narrowed, and looked at Chen Jin's head.
Dynamic imaging analysis of the material showed that everything inside the other person's skull was normal, and no red spots appeared.
Hearing the commotion, the students scrambled out of their tents and were all shocked after learning what had happened.
"Do they have a grudge against each other?"
"Whether there's a grudge or not, I don't know, but that guy is definitely insane."
"That's right, daring to commit violence right under Blue Shield's nose, they must be tired of living."
"Was it really necessary to use a knife? Why didn't he just buy a gun?"
"Hey, that's a dangerous idea of yours."
Joey glanced at the classmate who had spoken, and the other immediately explained, "That's not what I meant. Hey, you're in the same class as Junior Qi Te, right? Do you know what kind of conflict exists between them?"
"Tch~ Who could Qi Te possibly have a grudge against? He's just born with a penchant for petty people, he's just naturally prone to attracting hatred."
He was beaten to near death by Zheng Xinjian, and then inexplicably targeted by Fang Shu, a professor at the medical school, who almost possessed him and turned him into a vessel for a wealthy man.
Qi Te hadn't provoked anyone, but there were always people targeting him. Joey entered his name and birthday into various fortune-telling apps and did some calculations.
The conclusions reached were very consistent: the birth chart was unfavorable.
The students gathered in the center of the hall, whispering and discussing among themselves.
For safety reasons, Xu Su sent several more members of the Blue Shield team to check the signal equipment around the outpost again.
Liu Baichuan walked to the collection box, stared at Chen Jin who was curled up in a ball with his eyes closed, and frowned thoughtfully.
"Teacher" Qi Te walked to Liu Baichuan's side and asked softly, "Have you thought of something?"
"We'll talk about it when he wakes up. It's good that you're alright. Go back and rest."
After saying this, Old Liu turned to return to his tent. Qi Te pondered for two seconds, then quickly followed, asking, "Teacher, do you know what a red spot on the floor of the fourth ventricle means?"
Liu Baichuan suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned his head in astonishment to look at Qi Te, as if he had heard something extremely terrifying.
"What did you say?"
"No, I mean, how did you know?"
Liu Baichuan was somewhat incoherent. Qi Te immediately recounted how he had discovered a strange red spot in Zheng Xinjian's brain when Zheng attacked him at the subway station.
..............................
For the past month or so, Qi Te has either been in a hospital bed or on his way to one. No wonder the cyber shaman said he had a bad fate; even he himself feels like he's having a bit of bad luck.
I haven't had a chance to mention the discovery of the red spots to Lao Liu. During the days I spent working day and night in the lab researching the mutated aquatic plants, all my attention was on the slices and data, and I didn't even think about it.
Until just now, Chen Jin's seemingly insane state reminded Qi Te of Zheng Xinjian and that earth-type uncle.
Liu Baichuan's expression grew increasingly serious, his brows furrowed so deeply they could almost trap a fly.
Qi Te nodded and asked, "Teacher, what phenomenon is that?"
Liu Baichuan thought for a moment, then gestured for Qi Te to follow, and the two of them went into Old Liu's tent together.
Thirty-seven years ago, a terminal illness broke out around the world with a 100% mortality rate.
Chite's eyes widened suddenly: "So tall?!"
With the current level of medical technology in the Federation, most cancers have been conquered, and even highly fatal infectious diseases such as AIDS have the potential to be cured.
"Back then, I witnessed my mentor lose control and have an outburst."
Recalling that tragedy, Liu Baichuan couldn't help but frown, close his eyes, and show a pained expression on his face.
"That day should have been an ordinary afternoon, but it was very important to me. If that incident hadn't happened, my life might have been different..."
At that time, Liu Baichuan was only twenty years old and was an ordinary student at Longjun Capital University.
There's a girl in my class named Ding Qing. She's petite and of average appearance, but she's lively, enthusiastic, and loves to laugh.
Every time Liu Baichuan heard her laughter, he would unconsciously smile.
He knew he had fallen in love with that bright and cheerful girl.
That day was Ding Qing's birthday. Liu Baichuan specially bought a cake and sunflowers, which were the girl's favorite, and mustered up his courage to formally confess his feelings to her after class.
However, a disaster struck without warning.
The classroom was engulfed in flames; everything in sight was ablaze.
Even though he was engulfed in flames and every inch of his skin felt like it was being cut by countless knives, Liu Baichuan still did everything in his power to save Ding Qing.
However, burning planks and molten pipes continued to fall from the burned ceiling.
Ding Qing was trapped underneath, her beautiful long black hair engulfed in the crimson flames. She had been caught in the blast when it occurred, and most of her face was already a bloody mess.
The girl smiled as she watched Liu Baichuan, whose leg had been broken, limping toward her.
But that smile was filled with utter despair.
I like you too, but I can't leave.
"Xiao Chuan, run! Don't worry about me!"
Live on, live on for me.
More than thirty vibrant lives, cakes, sunflowers, everything was burned to ashes.
The raging flames, billowing smoke, wails, cries of pain, and dying gasps still echo in Liu Baichuan's mind.
The pain of losing his beloved accompanied him for thirty-seven years.
I don't want to forget, because I can't let go.
..............................
Liu Baichuan, a globally renowned biologist and human genetic engineer who has won numerous awards, remains unmarried to this day.
Photos of this academic figure with male companions frequently surface in academic circles and on numerous biology-related forums and websites. Some unscrupulous netizens have even maliciously speculated that "Old Liu" is a philanderer.
Even within Haicheng Academy, there were some rumors circulating.
After all, Liu Baichuan won the Starlink Award before he was even thirty. That's the most prestigious biology award. He became famous at a young age, wasn't bad-looking, had no shortage of talent and wealth, and had no shortage of women.
Even Qi Te, who never cared about gossip, had heard that many female professors and teaching assistants in the college had made advances towards Lao Liu. What's even more outrageous is that there were also men.
At this moment, Qi Te finally understood why his mentor, who had suddenly aged several years, had never married.
He never imagined that Lao Liu, who was known for his long hours, was so demanding on research data that it was outrageous, who would bang his fist on the table with the dean to secure funding, and who even pestered the mayor for a whole month, was actually a pure-hearted warrior.
"She loves biology and works very hard. She says she wants to become the most famous biologist in the federal government and that she wants to find a way to improve human genes so that people suffer less from diseases."
Of the thirty-nine students in the class, none escaped unscathed except for Liu Baichuan.
Such a tragic experience and painful memories would cause anyone to suffer from severe PTSD, or even survivor syndrome, falling into endless self-blame and guilt, and ultimately leading to a lifetime of depression.
But Liu Baichuan not only survived the disaster, he also managed to get through the darkest period of his life.
What supported him was the girl's wish.
Qi Te previously thought that when Lao Liu said, "You have the opportunity to explore higher achievements, don't waste your time on meaningless things," he was just envying the students' youth because of his own age.
Only then did he realize that he was wrong.
"Having a chance" means being alive.
"teacher..."
Qi Te racked his brains, trying to figure out how to comfort Liu Baichuan, whose eyes were red-rimmed.
Old Liu took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, rubbed his eyes, and smiled, "She asked me to live for her, and I think I haven't disappointed her."
