Chapter 643: 642: Unexpectedly, Mu Chengxi was treated as a test subject
Wen Xin squinted at Sun Ning; she didn’t quite believe what Sun Ning was saying. She knew once someone entered the Biological Laboratory, they would never have a chance to leave, let alone live freely in Independent State.
Meeting Wen Xin’s skeptical gaze, Sun Ning smiled lightly, “I know you don’t believe me, but it just so happened that I found a hidden passage in a long-abandoned lab and seized the opportunity to escape from the laboratory.”
“When I first joined the biological research, I wasn’t using the identity ‘Sun Ning’; instead, I used the name of a young apprentice of my mentor. After escaping, I resumed my real identity, which naturally means nobody knows what happened. Little princess, you are the only one!”
While speaking, Sun Ning displayed a rather proud demeanor, as if boasting about his own cleverness.
Wen Xin looked at Sun Ning, her skepticism slightly tempered. Based on her experiences, Sun Ning’s story was entirely plausible.
“Continue with the virus issue, I’m not interested in your experience.”
Wen Xin was currently only worried about Mu Chengxi’s condition; this was the first time he had encountered such a situation and was completely at a loss.
“You want to know about your boyfriend’s condition, right? Actually, there’s no need to worry; I had already administered the Antidote Agent for that virus to him before you rescued him. I wasn’t sure of the drug’s effectiveness at that time.”
“But now, seeing his current condition, all the checkup results are within the effective control range—it’s the best scenario possible.”
Wen Xin now clearly understood Sun Ning’s words; it meant that he had used Mu Chengxi as an experimental subject.
Thinking this, Wen Xin’s gaze suddenly turned cold; she was displeased that Mu Chengxi was used as a test subject.
“What symptoms does this virus cause? Is his current fever due to your antidote or the virus?”
Wen Xin suppressed the irritation in her heart; she just wanted to clarify what exactly was causing Mu Chengxi’s current condition.
“It’s due to the virus. The virus has a latent period of seven to twenty-one days in the body, during which symptoms like fever, weakness, and vomiting blood occur, puzzling doctors initially. But later, abnormalities are found in the blood, by which time the person has already entered an untreatable stage.”
“In Mu Chengxi’s case, it is just a fever, but since there’s no increase in the data, it indicates that my injection has had a suppressing effect on the virus inside his body. According to my experiment results, the virus should be eliminated through this high fever.”
“However, I can’t guarantee that no other incidents will occur, but you don’t need to worry; I have a Plan B.”
After finishing, Sun Ning placed the lab report on the bed beside him and picked up his backpack from the couch. He rummaged through the bag and pulled out a square plastic box.
Wen Xin watched Sun Ning’s actions with both nervousness and caution, worried about any move he might make that could impact Mu Chengxi a second time.
“This is the latest research I conducted three days after you left Independent State; I don’t know if you’re willing to trust me, but this is probably the only thing that can suppress the virus inside Mu Chengxi.”
“You should understand that there is no antidote for the virus in Independent State. My purpose in creating the Antidote Agent was so people in Independent State wouldn’t use the virus to control the world.”
Sun Ning spoke with an unusually serious expression, not joking with Wen Xin; he wasn’t any saint, but after experiencing virus research, he understood how insignificant humanity was before viruses.
Wen Xin took the medicine box handed over by Sun Ning, her beautiful eyes slightly squinting, with no trace of doubt in her gaze, only a calm look at the object in her hand.
By then, Wen Xin’s emotions had calmed down, and she began to believe what Sun Ning said.
She thought if Sun Ning’s injection could be effective, it would be of great help to her and would have extraordinary significance for both Independent State and those beyond.
Looking at the injection in her hand, Wen Xin turned her head to glance at Mu Chengxi lying on the bed and asked with concern,
“This won’t cause any harm to the body, right?”
If this were used on her, she might not even blink, but it was intended for Mu Chengxi, and she dared not risk his life on it.
“No, I have personally conducted safety tests on this medication. I am a person without virus infection, and injecting it into my body wouldn’t pose any danger.”
“You can rest assured, even if this medicine cannot cure the virus, it won’t bring any danger, but I believe it definitely has therapeutic effects on this virus.”
“I have been researching this reagent for over eight months now, that Biological Laboratory you found is mine!”
Sun Ning, having heard about the island laboratory from Alfredo’s mouth, was surprised; he had not expected his laboratory would be discovered by Wen Xin’s people.
“That island laboratory is the one I painstakingly set up. Just when the experiment was about to succeed, suddenly a group of people came. I thought my laboratory had been discovered, so I took the experimental data back to the Medical Research Institute in Independent State.”
“Later, I heard that Old Fox had captured many people on the island, and I thought they were the ones pursuing me, but it turned out to be your people.”
Wen Xin hadn’t expected that the laboratory was actually Sun Ning’s. She sat down lazily in a chair beside her, her voice smooth as she explained,
“I discovered that small laboratory when I entered Independent State. When I passed by, there was already no one inside. The people chasing you and my people are not the same.”
Wen Xin handed the injection back to Sun Ning, her tone somewhat cool, but it was evident that her voice had become much calmer.
“I of course know they weren’t your people; I was tracked a month ago, unrelated to you, but I still want that laboratory. Can you transfer the ownership of that island to me?”
Sun Ning looked at Wen Xin tentatively; if he wanted to conduct research, he needed a stable location. Although the island was unsafe, it was still safer than the laboratories of the Medical Organization.
Wen Xin never regarded that small island highly. She looked at Sun Ning, her attitude arrogant and unrestrained as she spoke,
“As long as what you say is true, I will provide you with the best research laboratory; I trust you, you can start now.”
Wen Xin gently placed her hand on Mu Chengxi’s forehead, the burning temperature made her heart ache. Now lacking a better solution, she could only choose to trust Sun Ning.
