D triangle border.
Deep Forest Secret Research Institute.
Underground research room.
The small square meter space is cramped and cramped, and the room is filled with all kinds of precision instruments.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of formalin.
In the middle of the research room, on the cold operating table, a little girl with black hair and black eyes had her hands and feet tightly shackled. Her skin was as pale as a dead person, her bones were erect, and her eyes were hollow.
The monitor connected to her body was beeping frequently. Several researchers in white coats were walking around testing the equipment, and there was no one talking to them.
"It's been six years and I haven't been able to research her magical abilities. The superiors are already very unhappy. If there is no progress this time, her research funds will be stopped immediately. Shit!"
"We all saw her ability to conjure things out of thin air with our own eyes!"
"So what? There is no progress in the research. It will be a waste to continue to spend money on her. She is no different from trash to us!"
"It cost one million to buy her, plus the research expenses that took so long... Damn it, all that money was wasted!"
The researchers cursed.
The old man in a white coat who had been standing in front of the operating table and staring at the little girl said, "For the last time, if it doesn't succeed again, the experimental product numbered zero will be discarded."
"Professor, what should we do?"
The old man turned back, his black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose flashed with a cold sheen, and said in an indifferent tone, "Vivisection!"
Those cold-blooded words echoed in the little girl's ears. Her face showed no emotion, and her eyes remained blank.
On her fourth birthday, her parents brought her here and said that as long as she could conjure something for them, they would buy her a sweet cake to celebrate her birthday.
She conjured up a delicious pear and looked at her parents expectantly.
But there was no birthday cake that day.
These people appear after she conjures something.
Her parents took a large amount of money and left happily. No one looked at her or thought of taking her away.
For the next six years, she was kept in this glass house and studied like a monkey.
Continuous drug injections, blood marrow extraction, machine dialysis, surgery...
She became the experimental subject here, number zero.
Innately incapable of empathy.
"Baby, this dead face every day is really boring. Just smile or cry." Someone approached the operating table, stretched out his hand and slapped her face.
Trying to use pain to make the little girl change her face and cry.
"This kid is born with an inability to empathize, and his nerve endings are damaged. He can't cry or laugh at all. It's not like you don't know." Another person approached. Wanting to prove that what he said was true, he used a sharp scalpel to Prick her thigh hard.
The little girl's reflexes twitched, and her dark eyes moved slowly without screaming or crying.
The researchers laughed strangely, "Look, it's still like this, hahaha!"
"After the vivisection, what do you think her expression will be?"
"Oh, wait a minute, I'll record it, it will be very exciting!"
The knife cut through the flesh, it hurt very much.
The little girl's thin and sunken face finally gradually became distorted due to pain, and her black eyes slowly turned a strange scarlet color.
The lines on the display nearby suddenly sped up, and a beep beeped warning sound.
"Professor, she may not be able to hold on anymore!"
"Ignore it and continue!"
Didi didi——
Didi didi——
The warning sound on the display became more and more urgent, as if it was about to break open the instrument and rush out.
The invisible wave factors in the air quickly condense, rotate, and generate heat.
There was a loud explosion.
Mushroom clouds soared into the sky deep in the deep forest.
The underground research room was blown to pieces.
…
North Vietnam.
In the twenty-third year of Hongde, it was midwinter.
It’s been nine cold days, and the snow in the North has been falling endlessly.
The cold wind howled arrogantly, rolling up snow foam wherever it passed.
From Dahuai Village at the junction of Yuzhou and Xiangzhou, a small cry came out.
The cry was mixed in the cold wind, as weak as a cat's meow.
At noon, the woman with a broken mouth who was warming herself by the fire in the village glanced in a certain direction and said, "I guess it's Mr. Su's family who gave birth to a baby. The family is so poor that they don't even visit mice, and now they have another baby, too. I’m not afraid that I won’t be able to survive, huh.”
"Do you care whether other people's children are fed or not? Sweep the snow off the roof later. It's been snowing non-stop these days, and it's so thick that it's crushing the beams of the house."
After being caught and scolded by the man, the woman curled her lips and became silent.
The Su family the woman was talking about was two houses away from hers.
They are the poorest family in Dahuai Village.
The house only has a small, hand-sized courtyard with three rooms.
At this time, an old woman's voice came from the small courtyard, "It's time to give birth! Xiu'er, please send Po Wen off, and then go to the kitchen to get a pot of hot water! Come in and help me, from the second son's house, to help clean up the dirty house." It’s time to pack things! Gentlemen, don’t block the place at the door, go to the kitchen and wait!”
The dusty door curtain of the main room was immediately lifted up. Wen Po weighed six coins in her hand and curled her lips silently, not wanting to stay for a moment longer. A delicate woman in her twenties followed her carefully out of the house. She had no time to suffer, so she went to the kitchen to get a basin of hot water and returned to the house.
The cramped and dark room was filled with a strong smell of blood, and it had to be cleaned up quickly.
"Mom, are you a boy or a girl?" Su Xiu put down the hot water basin and asked while rolling up her sleeves and working.
"Baby girl."
"It's great, we have another baby girl in our family."
"It's okay, girls are born to suffer." The old woman from the Su family wrapped the little baby in swaddling clothes, and patted the baby gently with her rough and deformed hands.
These words sounded like disgust. On the other side of the bed, Liu Yuelan, who had just given birth, and Su's second daughter-in-law, He Daxiang, who was helping to clean up, both smiled.
After being married into the Su family for so many years, they still don't know what their mother-in-law is like?
He's just a sharp-tongued person.
For a moment, the old woman from the Su family suddenly frowned, "Why is Yaobao silent? He just cried when he came out. Isn't he freezing?"
As soon as these words came out, the three young women in the room turned pale with fright.
Regardless of her physical weakness, Liu Yuelan struggled to sit up, feeling anxious and distressed, "Mom, show me the baby!"
Su Xiu and He Daxiang had already thrown away their work and ran over in a few steps.
As a result, he happened to meet the little baby's slowly opening eyes.
It's dark, shiny, and still shows the sluggishness of having just changed the environment.
"..." Su Xiu chuckled, "Sister-in-law, don't be frightened by mother. Yaobao is fine. His eyes are big and black, and he is energetic and smart."
He Daxiang said with a naive smile, "Yao Bao is a good boy. He doesn't like to cry or make noise."
The Su family's old woman's expression also relaxed at this time, and her weathered face softened a bit as she faced those dark eyes.
"..." Looking at the three heads popping up above, Yao Bao's almost invisible eyebrows slowly wrinkled, as serious as a little old man.
How is this going?
She remembered that she had obviously died when the laboratory exploded.
Why is it alive again now?
She doesn't want to be human anymore.
