No matter what they guessed, Lou Jinhuan's entry into the core courtyard was a certainty. The dean himself made the decision, and no one could shake it.
Luo Zhen rushed over immediately after hearing the news. Lou Jinhuan gave Xie Zhizhou a comforting look and took Luo Zhen to the lounge to talk.
Luo Zhen sat down on the chair and looked at Lou Jinhuan carefully.
Lou Jinhuan stood by the table and raised his eyebrows in confusion, "What are you looking at?"
Luo Zhen sighed, smiled and shook her head: "I just felt that I didn't know you well enough before."
He crossed his hands on his chin and asked curiously: "How on earth did you do that?"
He didn't ask what he did, but they knew each other well.
Lou Jinhuan smiled and said: "It's very simple. I don't want to live a life of being inferior to others anymore. I want to work hard to climb up. It just so happens that Experimental Subject No. 000 listens to me, and he is the most important experimental subject. The entire institute is I value him very much, so I wrote a self-recommendation letter and sent it to Vice President Qin’s mailbox overnight, asking him to help forward it to the dean of the core college. He had a good impression of me. He helped me with this small favor, and maybe he also helped me. Just say a few nice words to me and I will become a regular employee."
Luo Zhen gave a thumbs up in admiration, "You are so brave, you actually want to ask Vice President Qin to help."
"Since I have this connection, it doesn't hurt to give it a try. What if it works? If it doesn't work, I won't lose anything."
"Too."
Luo Zhen was silent for a moment, then stood up, "Then you will still be responsible for the testing and observation of No. 000 from now on?"
"Well, I will be responsible for No. 000 from now on. Although my responsibilities have not changed, I can have access to some core secrets." Lou Jinhuan smiled: "In the future, I no longer have to worry about whether I have a good meal or not."
Luo Zhen was amused by her and wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say it. "Okay, then please pay attention to safety, take care of yourself, and don't have too much expectations for 000's kindness. If he is like before..."
As he spoke, his eyes fell on Lou Jinhuan's neck. The red mark before had faded so much that it couldn't be seen without looking carefully.
Lou Jinhuan touched it and said calmly: "It was an accident. It won't happen again. Don't worry."
"Well, I still have an experiment to do over there, so I won't stay any longer. See you next time."
Luo Zhen passed Lou Jinhuan and walked to the door. He turned back and glanced at Lou Jinhuan with an incomprehensible expression.
Lou Jinhuan pretended not to notice, waited for him to leave, then turned around and returned to ward 000.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Xie Zhizhou, who was still sluggish, sat up straight and asked, "Is that person gone?"
Lou Jinhuan nodded and sat down on the chair next to the bed, "Do you blame me for what happened today?"
Unexpectedly, she was so direct. Xie Zhizhou was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly shook his head: "I can't blame you. You're right. They won't give up until they get my blood. If I go crazy again, they will directly kill me." I was put into a small dark room and kept stimulated with electric current until I became docile."
"What?" Lou Jinhuan was shocked, "They actually tortured you?"
After asking, she paused for a moment. She could even conduct experiments on living subjects, so what's so surprising about torture?
She raised her hand and stroked her forehead, "How many bad things have they done to you?"
Xie Zhizhou's eyes were empty, "I don't remember, my consciousness was hazy most of the time, either from electric shocks or from being tortured by the messy reagents in my body. This is the longest time I have been awake. So, I should actually thank you."
He turned to look at Lou Jinhuan, with a bit of a smile in his eyes, "Thank you."
Lou Jinhuan suddenly felt that someone had stabbed him in the heart. It was not a very sharp knife, but a very dull one. It stabbed into the softest part of his heart bit by bit. The blood flowed like a stream in an instant and he couldn't stop it.
Although he has been deeply hurt by the malice of this world, he can still say with that embarrassment: "Thank you."
Lou Jinhuan's eyes were hot and his nose was sore. He finally couldn't help but raised his hand and rubbed Xie Zhizhou's hair vigorously, "You little fool, what are you thanking for?"
Xie Zhizhou turned his head to avoid it, his face slightly red, "I'm not stupid, I can still distinguish true feelings from false ones, and your injection really doesn't hurt."
Having said this, he looked at Lou Jinhuan expectantly, "So sister, can you be the one to give me injections from now on?"
"Okay, from now on I will take over everything from you and I won't let them put you in a dark room again."
Lou Jinhuan made a promise, sniffed to hold back his tears, took out the recording pen from his pocket and put it in his palm, "Listen to this."
"What is this?" Xie Zhizhou played with it twice curiously. Lou Jinhuan held his hand and patiently demonstrated to him, "Press here, this button will play, press it again to pause, press it twice quickly to fast forward... …”
Xie Zhizhou watched intently, and after learning the lesson, he turned around with a smile, "So -"
The sound stopped suddenly, leaving only a warm feeling on his lips.
He and Lou Jinhuan were stunned.
They came close to each other at some point, very close to each other. As soon as he turned his head, his lips brushed against the side of Lou Jinhuan's face.
Xie Zhizhou's eyes widened in astonishment, and the next moment there was a "boom", his whole face was on fire, and he stepped back in a panic, "Yes... I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!"
Seeing that he was about to fall off the bed if he retreated any further, Lou Jinhuan grabbed his wrist and said, "Okay, I'm not angry. I know you didn't mean it, so don't run."
Xie Zhizhou pursed his lips and moved back shyly, but kept a distance from Lou Jinhuan and did not dare to get too close.
[Congratulations to the host, the favorability of the target is increased by 15, and the current total favorability is -50, come on~]
Lou Jinhuan was amused, so he picked up the recorder and gave it to him, "Listen."
Xie Zhizhou held the recorder and heard nothing for a long time. He asked Lou Jinhuan with doubtful eyes.
She raised her chin and said, "Keep listening."
After a while, a voice finally came, "You'd better not be deceived by this woman. I don't want to be embarrassed with you."
Xie Zhizhou: "!!!"
Although the voice sounded a little unfamiliar from the recorder, it was still clear that it was his own voice!
Xie Zhizhou suddenly looked at Lou Jinhuan: "Did I say that?"
Lou Jinhuan nodded and pressed pause, "To be precise, your other personality said it."
She put her hands on the bed and looked at him, "Do you know your other personality?"
Xie Zhizhou was silent, clutching the recorder in his hand tightly. After a while, his shoulders slumped and he said in a frustrated voice: "I know, although I don't know what he is like and have no relevant memory, but I can vaguely understand I noticed it because the previous researchers said that I was very fierce and had killed people, but I had no impression at all. I didn’t realize it until I heard them talk about the second personality at night.”
He asked a little cautiously: "Have you seen him?"
