Chapter 1601

"Sorry, I'm busy," she said and attempted to leave. After all, she was rushing to get to the X Department.Mike grabbed her wrist. "It’s important."Lily frowned when she felt Mike pulling her wrist. "You know what I'm capable of. Don't make me hurt you."Looking at her expression, he slowly loosened his grip. With that, she turned around without the slightest intention of staying."Don't you want to know the lab's secrets?" Mike suddenly called out behind her.That made Lily stop in her tracks. She turned to look at him with narrowed eyes. "What are you playing at?""Don't you want to know what kind of virus Alex got infected with?"His words were undoubtedly tempting to her. On top of that, he knew Alexander was sick. Lily had been doing such an excellent job at keeping that a secret.After a moment of hesitation, she caved to his offer. Although she did not trust Mike, he was closer to the truth and knew more than she did.‘Should I trust him? Is he really going to tell me

"This lab is just a small pawn in the game. The main source isn't in Hyderland. Do you understand?" Mike said cryptically after a moment of thought.Although he did not give a direct answer, Lily understood what he meant and nodded thoughtfully. "Are you saying Hyderland is just a subsidiary branch, and the headquarters is abroad?"Mike nodded. "The boss behind it is more powerful than we can ever imagine. We can't compete against him. Lily, you shouldn't dig any deeper. If you do, you might risk your life and the lives of the people around you.""That means this is all just to try and convince me not to investigate further in the lab?" Lily asked mockingly, a smile on her face."No!" Mike shook his head and said, "I want to strike a deal with you.""What deal?""Come back and work for the lab. This time, you'll be tasked with more important projects. But you shouldn't ask questions or care about what you're doing. Just concentrate on your experiments.""What do I get?" Lily was

"I want to know who the targeted group is!" Lily was not so easily bought as she stubbornly pestered, "Who is being targeted? Tell me!"Faced with her persistence, Mike initially shrugged it off. In the end, he put his hands up and sighed. "Initially, it was aimed at the Asiatic people.""Initially?" She questioned.Mike nodded and said, "However, the situation has gone slightly out of control. I'm sure you've seen how quick and widespread the plague has become. Now, it seems like the people of Roseroot are also getting infected. This means that the original experiment has failed. Now, it's an entirely indiscriminate attack.“By now, it's safe to assume that the lab had lost its confidence and trust in most people. Although you didn't make a lot, the effect of your end product is excellent. There seem to be no side effects, and it is controllable. Therefore, the boss hopes you will still return and help with our next mission."To be frank, Mike did not want to drag her into this.

The waiter was relieved to hear this and silently exited the booth.Lily looked at Mike with a fire burning in her eyes. "Mike Corden, how much did they give you to be their lackey?!"After all, he was someone she once regarded as a friend. Despite their different viewpoints, she would not hold a grudge against him. However, his words today angered her.Alexander was lying on the hospital bed with no guarantee of his life. The trajectory of the virus was unknown as well. Mike knew exactly what had infected Alexander and how much he was suffering right now, yet instead of visiting him, Mike came up to her, offended her, then offered such a horrible deal.With her standing up while he stayed seated, she did seem imperceptibly imposing. However, Mike remained calm.As Lily cursed at him and slammed the glass, he sat quietly. Once she was done, he raised his head to look at her with a sarcastic smile. "How much did they give me? They took away my son."Although he smiled, Lily could

"I know I can’t overpower you and how skilled you are." Mike sighed as he glanced at Lily. "But, I also know how they'd do away with me if I can't convince you, so… I'm sorry.""Did you poison my tea?" Lily frowned."Don't worry. It's just a light dose. It won't affect your unborn child. It's just that we'd have to…" Mike, who just stood up, suddenly swayed, and the scene before him became blurry. "You…"Lily pointed to the debris on the ground and smiled. "Have you forgotten why your boss wants to hire me? I'm an expert in this field."She knew something was wrong when she touched the cup and smelled the tea. She also knew what Mike had added to it.Mike was telling the truth. The drug he put in the drink would not harm her child. It would only put her to sleep. She had quietly exchanged their cups without him realizing."You…" Mike tried to hold himself up, but the drug's effect quickly kicked in. Soon, he could barely see what was in front of him."Don't blame me for doing th

"Don't interrupt me when I’m talking. What I'm saying now is very important. You shouldn't take things lightly," Dr. Morris snapped.Lily shrugged, unaffected by his attitude. It was right for him to be cautious as this plague was not a trivial matter.She studied the memos posted on the wall while waiting for him to finish talking about the rules. She had to resist the urge to yawn, and when he finally finished, she was relieved. She could finally change into her protective suit.She was eager to know how far this department's research on the plague had come and how different it was from what she had learned. She also wanted to know how far they were in their research of producing an antidote.After changing into her protective gear and disinfecting herself, Lily entered the laboratory. What she assumed to be a substantial experimental base turned out to be an empty corridor. Dr. Morris sped down the hallway, and she followed behind quietly until they reached a spacious elevator.

Dr. Blanc turned and motioned for Lily to come forward. He tapped on his keyboard, and a few data lines appeared on the monitor. Lily squinted her eyes and studied them."With your background in traditional herbs, we hope you can give a different insight and work with us to find a way to tackle this virus," Dr. Blanc said."Can I have a look at the earlier research data?" Lily added after pondering. "Especially those on the virus.""We don't fully understand the virus," Dr. Blanc replied with a sigh. "Since it hasn’t spread domestically and we've kept it under control, we have minimal samples to study. We don't have a proper reference value.""Why?" Lily frowned in confusion.‘Why would there be no reference value if they managed to get a hand on a virus sample, even if it wasn’t from the main transmission chain?’"The thing is, our recent research has found that the virus mutates and evolves very quickly, but because the samples we took are from the end of a transmission chain,

They re-entered another elevator. Then, the elevator began to descend again.This surprised her. She had already thought that this research base was very far underground. She didn't expect that there were any floors below. After a while, the elevator finally stopped. Dr. Blanc walked out, followed by Lily, then Dr. Morris.This floor was relatively empty. Few machines or people were around, and an uneasiness lingered in the air. After taking a few steps forward, Lily could hear a faint moan. She perked up her ears, but the sound seemed to have disappeared. It was as if it was a hallucination.However, as they moved forward after being disinfected, she was sure it wasn't an auditory illusion. It was real!There weren't just groans. There were sounds of suppressed cries, coughs, and pants. These sounds didn't come from just one person. It was discomforting for anyone to hear.Afraid that she might shrink away, Dr. Blanc turned back to look at her and noticed her solemn face.

"But you're pregnant!" Dr. Morris couldn't help but call out."What?!" This was news to Dr. Blanc, and he subconsciously glanced at her lower abdomen. It wasn't pronounced through the heavy layers of the protective suit. The two times Dr. Blanc had met her, she was clad in protective gear. Therefore, he could not tell that she was pregnant. On top of that, Dominic did not bring it up, which surprised Dr. Blanc further. Lily smiled lightly. "What's wrong with being pregnant? Pregnant women are humans as well. It is precisely because I'm pregnant that I understand the importance of finding a cure for this virus. Otherwise, not only will it affect us, but it will also affect the next generation.”After saying this, she reached out and was about to open the door."No!" This time, it was Dr. Blanc who stopped her. "I can't let you take the risk.""If I can't take the risk, are you saying that the rest of you can?" Lily looked at him and questioned. "I'm sure everyone knows the dan

Dr. Blanc did not speak as he just stood aside and watched.Lily checked the patient's pulse before standing up and disinfecting her hands. Then she walked out of the room. Dr. Morris stared at her back doubtfully, waiting for her to speak. However, she left without saying a word.He glanced at Dr. Blanc, who didn't seem to want to question her, and pursed his lips. He then followed behind her and went to the next room quietly. They went into one room after another. There were patients of all ages here. After reading the pulses of more than a dozen people, Lily was starting to get a little tired.Dr. Blanc immediately picked up on her fatigue and asked with concern. "Do you want to take a break? I think we can wrap it up for today. We're almost done anyway."However, she shook her head. "It's okay. I'm fine!"She wanted to see a few more cases. By pooling the data from different people under similar conditions, she could form a more robust hypothesis. When she got to the nex
