To be honest, at this time, Kawakami's brain was already a little down. On the one hand, it was because he was not in a good state, and on the other hand, because the amount of information brought by this memory was too large:
For example, that gentleman looked...compared to now, he actually looked older.
Kawakami remembers that the ultimate research goal of the organization is to rejuvenate the old and bring the dead back to life?
In fact, given Kawakami Tsuyoshi's character, he is actually quite interested in these things - but the premise of his interest is that he does not take over the research.
After understanding how outrageous the aptx series was and knowing that he still had to think about this outrageous thing, Kawakami immediately lost interest.
After all, most people would be daunted by the "I really have a cow" situation. If Tsumugi Kawakami had a hard time, he would be able to take over aptx.
Fortunately, Lei Li took over this hot potato. From this perspective, Shirley was really his great contributor.
There is a plastic wall between the rehabilitation area and "Kawakamiji", and the upper half of the wall is covered by glass.
The gentleman kept holding on to the walking trainer and walked hard step by step. He seemed not to notice the arrival of "Kawakamiji".
So the "Kawakami Ji" in this memory sneaked up to the wall, hiding most of his body, only half of his head was exposed, and he still had an expression like looking at a monkey...
Watch.
Kawakamiji:……
What's so cool about this.
Well, it is indeed quite interesting. After all, Tsumugi Kawakami has basically never seen that gentleman look like this. Moreover, if his guess is correct, maybe "he" in the crowd, in addition to being acquainted... also has a bit of a scientist's scrutiny of his experimental products?
Tsk, it’s hard to say.
So if Kawakami met Tsumugi, he would probably quietly come up and take a look, just take a look——
Of course, his movements were more concealed than this guy's. Now "Kawakami Tsumugi" seemed to be hiding, which made him feel a little blind.
Sure enough, he had actually been discovered a long time ago.
It didn't take long for someone to find "Kawakami Tsumugi". The man was wearing a black suit and sunglasses, and he smiled casually.
Hmm...a retired killer with a leg injury. He is young but looks very old. He has undergone plastic surgery and is of mixed race. He just came to Japan recently. He seems to be that gentleman's bodyguard. Kawakamiji judged.
"Mr. Lin Xingji, the boss asks you to wait for him in the lounge."
Lin Xingji? Kawakamiji caught the name instantly. Wait, Chinese? Japanese? Strange... why was his first reaction Japan?
Lin Xingji stood up quickly and put on a decent smile: "It seems that I came early, so could you please lead the way... um, a certain Mr. Killer who retired due to a leg injury?"
He had long noticed the stiffness of the other person's left leg when he walked, and when he subconsciously glanced over there, the bodyguard suddenly burst out with a fierce murderous aura.
So Lin Xingji put his hands into the pockets of his research clothes, took a small step back, and at the same time clenched a small medicine bottle with his left hand.
"Sorry," he said.
The murderous aura immediately subsided, and the bodyguard bowed slightly to apologize: "No, I was rude. Please come this way."
…………
Lin Xingji followed the bodyguard with brisk steps, and was then taken to a low-key and luxuriously decorated room. He slipped to the sofa with ease and sat down.
"Thank you, but you may need to tell the boss. Well, I'm a little hungry. After all, I missed breakfast and lunch because of research." Lin Xingji said, polite but quite matter-of-factly, "I think he should have expected it."
"yes."
The bodyguard looked at Lin Xingji again and then left the lounge.
It didn't take long for the food to arrive: a tall glass of lemon iced tea and golden-fried cod strips.
Lin Xingji thanked him with a smile, and then started to eat happily. After taking a few bites, he took out a booklet from his coat pocket and started reading it with a serious face.
It's a horror book.
It's so vulgar that you can guess the ending at a glance. Kawakami Ji followed it for a few glances and then lost interest. When Lin Xingji lowered his head, he saw the bangs hanging down on his face - still slightly curly, but black instead of gray.
Dyed? Kawakami thought for two seconds, and then his attention was successfully snatched away by the cod strips in Lin Xingji's hand.
This is just a memory, so Kawakamiji cannot feel the taste and texture. But you can see it if you look.
The crispy shell reveals snow-white fish meat when bitten open, and the color of lemon black tea is also very attractive...
It looked so delicious that Kawakami admitted that he was greedy.
Twenty minutes later, the gentleman arrived.
Sitting in a wheelchair, wearing a soft pajamas, his hair was half dry. It was obvious that he took a shower after the reconstruction, but he may be afraid that Lin Xingji would wait too long, so he did not dry his hair.
"Want some, Mr. Karasuma?" Lin Xingji greeted briskly.
"The doctor advised me to avoid food during my rehabilitation. High-sugar, high-calorie foods and fried foods are not healthy." The gentleman said quietly, "But it is obvious that my chef thinks it is okay for young people to eat some."
Lin Xingji looked at the cod strips in his hand, then at the gentleman, and then at the small half left on the plate.
Finally he nodded very seriously.
"I understand. For the sake of your recovery, I will finish it as soon as possible, sir."
…………
Lin Xingji came to see that gentleman for business.
After drinking and eating, he took out a few pieces of information from his research clothes, handwritten, and mixed with a page of newspaper.
The tableware had been cleared away, so Lin Xingji directly laid the information on the table.
"I'm looking for you mainly for two things. The first thing is your condition: the first stage is to improve your physical condition through drugs. It seems that it has had some effect, but we still need to continue to improve. In terms of drugs There’s nothing wrong with it, the main thing is the price, but you can afford it.”
He paused and then continued,
"Of course, this treats the symptoms rather than the root cause. Only improving genes can cure aging. However, this is much more complicated than the first stage... So, I need patients."
"Experimental subject?" the gentleman confirmed.
"You can say that. It seems that Karasuma Group has also invested in the medical industry." Lin Xingji shrugged, "Maybe we can do some charity or something... we will treat patients with severe genetic diseases for free. Someone will be willing to come."
"Aging diseases are not common."
"Ah, but disease is not an island."
They looked at each other for a few seconds, and then the gentleman nodded:
"This matter is easy to handle. I will give you authority. You can communicate directly with the person in charge of the medical department."
"Thank you very much~" Lin Xingji said, he was obviously excited, and then spread out several other documents in front of him, "The second thing is that I think my research team needs some fresh blood."
"You said last time that the breathing sounds of the idiots I arranged affected your thinking."
"Last time was the last time, and this time is this time, so I have to choose by myself."
"Pick it yourself? Last time, you kicked the assistant you chose yourself out of the laboratory because he walked in with his left foot. Last time, you scolded the old researcher for having a heart attack."
"Okay...I admit that I have a lot of criminal records - and I didn't scold him about the heart attack? I just told him objectively why his research was worthless."
The gentleman rolled his eyes.
"But this time it's definitely different." Lin Xingji pointed at the information with his hands excitedly, "For example, this John Broadus. Ah, and Francis Harry Compton, I think they are all OK. Tie him over and work for us."
Lin Xingji was referring to all the famous and famous scientists in the world. Not to mention being tied up to work, if they disappeared for just one day, everyone might notice them.
"Well... there is another Cormac - no, Cormac, I feel that this guy is qualified to win the Nobel Prize. Among the several candidates, I am most optimistic about him."
"You can't be too immoral, so let's wait until he wins the Nobel before we go to trouble him. Just wait two years reluctantly."
"What do you think?"
The gentleman looked at Lin Xingji who looked expectant and couldn't help but take a deep breath to stabilize his mood:
"Mr. Lin, do you think you are ordering food?"
