Lou Jinhuan met his fearful and worried gaze and nodded, "I've seen it before."
Xie Zhizhou's eyes turned red instantly, "The injury on your neck was caused by me... he pinched it, right?"
He had noticed it before, but he never dared to think about it or ask, but the truth could not be hidden after all.
Lou Jinhuan shook his head, "At that time, we were enemies. It is normal to be cruel to one's enemies. If he fails to do so, I will call him a coward."
Xie Zhizhou opened his eyes wide and asked in shock: "Don't you blame me?"
"Why should I blame you? Firstly, it wasn't you who pinched me. Secondly, our positions were different at the time. It's understandable that you didn't trust me. But it still hurts when he pinched me. I will blame him for this. I don't blame you." .”
A subtle light flashed in Xie Zhizhou's eyes, and his mood obviously improved a little.
Lou Jinhuan continued: "I am telling you this not to settle old scores, but because I have something more important to tell you. You continue to listen first."
She pressed the button, and the familiar yet unfamiliar voice came out of the recorder again.
It was lower than his, and sounded more mature, as if there was an illusion of a conversation between time and space and the future self.
This feeling was so wonderful that Xie Zhizhou couldn't help but concentrate on it.
"You should be able to sense my presence, right? After all, you have the right to use your body. Speaking of which, I am really jealous of you. Why do you have such a bad temper and take the lead? But it doesn't matter. The top priority is to escape from here. Go, otherwise we will all end up dead."
"Lou Jinhuan and I, the researcher who supervises you, have reached a cooperation. We use each other to escape from here together. I can't come out during the day, so you cooperate with her. She can be trusted for the time being. It doesn't matter if you don't trust her. , if she has evil intentions, it would be easy for us to join forces and kill her."
"Okay, that's all I have to say, you better not let me down."
The words ended here, and Lou Jinhuan could be heard vaguely saying: "You really can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth."
Xie Zhizhou couldn't laugh or cry. Although Lou Jinhuan was scolding his other personality, after all, the two of them were the same person and shared the same body, so naturally they were scolded together.
Lou Jinhuan took the recorder and said, "Ahem, I was scolding him. Don't think too much about it. It has nothing to do with you."
Xie Zhizhou nodded, "I understand, that's why you came forward today and offered to draw my blood?"
"Well, since we are allies, of course I have to help you. How about it? Doesn't it hurt?"
"It really doesn't hurt. How did you do it?" Xie Zhizhou looked at Lou Jinhuan curiously.
Lou Jinhuan smiled: "Secret."
"Just cooperate with me more from now on. I have applied to join the Core Academy. From now on, I will be an official core researcher. My rights here will be much greater. I will do my best to gain more freedom for you."
She stood up and extended her hand to Xie Zhizhou, "So, happy cooperation."
Xie Zhizhou looked at it for a while, then slowly put his hand on it, "Okay, happy cooperation."
[Congratulations to the host, the favorability of the target is increased by ten, and the current total favorability is -40, come on~]
Their eyes met, and the two laughed in unison.
…
The selection of researchers in the Core Institute is a very important event. The selected ones have to hold a meeting and give a speech, and finally conduct a public vote. Only half of the votes can be retained. However, Lou Jinhuan was appointed by the dean, so the voting process was skipped. , but speeches are still indispensable.
The first is to let her show up and get familiar with each other, and the second is to see her ability, whether she can convince others, and whether she is really qualified for this position. If not, she may be removed at any time, and it is not the dean who comes forward. Just sit back and relax.
Lou Jinhuan stayed up late at night to read the notes left by the original owner and the relevant information left by the previous researchers, and compiled them into three thin pieces of paper. She added some things she made up herself, which was enough to fool them.
The next morning, when the sun was shining all over the earth, a sharp and urgent bell rang in the laboratory building. This was the signal for the researchers to hold a meeting.
Lou Jinhuan immediately got up and put on his white coat, tied up his hair, picked up the information on the table and pushed out the door.
She first walked to the door of ward No. 000, opened the door and saw that 000 was already awake, and warned: "I have to have a very important meeting. If everything goes well, I will be back in two hours. If everything goes wrong, it may take longer. You can stay in the room by yourself." Be careful here, if someone comes to draw your blood or do experiments on you, go crazy and hold on until I come back."
"Okay, go ahead." Xie Zhizhou nodded meekly, with a newly awakened confusion in his eyes, "You can definitely do it."
"I'd like to lend you some good words."
Lou Jinhuan locked the door, turned around and entered the elevator.
…
The conference room was on the top floor and could be reached directly by the elevator. Lou Jinhuan watched the number of words continue to increase, feeling a sense of excitement that he had not seen for a long time.
Maybe she is a person who likes excitement at heart. The more difficult and exciting the scene, the more excited she is.
She had lived a good life before, but the reason why she decided to commit suicide was for this reason - boredom.
With a "ding" sound, the elevator door opened. Lou Jinhuan raised his eyes and saw that the entire top floor was a conference room.
The outside of the spacious conference room is completely covered with transparent glass, and the situation inside can be seen at a glance.
There were already many people sitting inside, all wearing blue coats, and all of them had stern expressions. Even before entering, I felt a sense of suffocation.
The people in the conference room were not interested in the people coming up and down the elevator. They were all busy with their own tasks. When Lou Jinhuan walked in, only two people glanced at her. However, when they saw her wearing a white coat, those two people looked at her. He frowned.
"Are you the researcher specially approved by the dean?"
Lou Jinhuan held the folder in one hand and nodded when she heard the words. Without saying anything, she paused for a moment and walked directly to the end of the long table in the conference room and stood there.
Only then did the others notice her and began to whisper among themselves.
Lou Jinhuan just pretended not to hear.
Ten minutes later, everyone arrived. The dean and vice-dean sat at the other end of the conference table, looking at Lou Jinhuan.
The deputy dean spoke first, "Now that everyone is here, let's get started."
Lou Jinhuan nodded, put down the folder in his hand, and introduced himself: "Hello everyone, I am junior researcher Lou Jinhuan, and I will also be your future colleague. I know that everyone has doubts about my ability, and I don't understand why the dean promoted me I, I am here to explain this problem today.”
As she spoke, she turned on the projection, and Xie Zhizhou's photo immediately appeared on the screen.
"Before entering graduate school, I was an outstanding graduate student at University A's medical school. I didn't pursue a Ph.D. because the apocalypse came before I could."
"Later I was selected to enter the graduate school and was responsible for some basic projects at first. My results were recorded on file and everyone can check them."
Lou Jinhuan turned sideways, pointed at Xie Zhizhou on the curtain and said, "What I just said is the prerequisite for me to enter the institute, and he is the decisive factor for me to enter the institute."
