Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1836
Chapter 1836: Chapter 1836, the hand of God (Dazhang)
“Equivalent exchange?”Gu Nianzhi muttered to herself. Lu Jin shouted, “What equivalent exchange? ! I don’t agree! — let him die!”
Gu Nianzhi suddenly understood.
“… CEO Lu means to use his leukemia treatment in exchange?”
Lu Yuan nodded, completely ignoring Lu Jin, who was fuming beside him.
“I said I don’t agree!”Lu Jin was so angry that he was rambling. “I don’t agree, I don’t agree, I don’t agree! I’m never threatened!”
Lu Yuan opened the newspaper again as if nothing had happened, blocking his line of sight. He said to Gu Nianzhi,”… talk some sense into your father.”
Gu Nianzhi:”…”
She looked at the steady Lu Yuan and then at Lu Jin, who had a look of rejection on his face. She felt a dull pain in her temples.
However, Gu Nianzhi was Lu Jin’s biological daughter after all. She quickly rolled her eyes and said with a smile, “That’s right, that’s right. What equivalent exchange? ! Where did the equivalent exchange come from? I don’t agree either!”
Lu Yuan lowered the newspaper in his hand. He peeked his eyes out from the top of the newspaper and looked quietly at Gu Nianzhi.
Lu Jin’s anger turned into joy. He said happily, “Isn’t that right? Look, my lady agrees with me! I’ve confirmed with her eyes that she’s really my biological daughter!”
Gu Nianzhi:”…”
“… Dad, don’t surf the Internet anymore.”Gu Nianzhi coughed lightly and looked at Lu Jin ingratiatingly, “Of course it’s not an equal exchange. My father’s life is much more important than Reinitz’s. Reinitz’s life is only as important as a single strand of my father’s hair, right?”
“Of course!”Lu Jin patted Gu Nianzhi’s shoulder vigorously. “My Lady Is Right!”
“Then you’ll listen to me?”Gu Nianzhi quickly followed. “We’ll use Reinitz’s life in exchange for just one strand of your hair. You’re the one who’s making the most of it.”
Lu Jin:”…”
It sounded like something was wrong, but there was nothing wrong with the logic.
Lu Jin was instantly caught in an endless loop of logic. Was it his hair that was more important, or was it Reinitz’s life that was more important.
He then confusedly agreed to help Gu Nianzhi design a gene therapy that could specifically treat Reinitz’s special leukemia..
..
After coming out of Lu Jin’s lab, Gu Nianzhi sat directly in front of Huo Shaoheng’s bed and tucked him in.
She rarely saw Huo Shaoheng injured.
It wasn’t that Huo Shaoheng had never been injured, but that if he was seriously injured during a mission, he would recover before meeting Gu Nianzhi at the base.
She had only seen minor injuries.
This was the first time she had seen injuries like this.
Reinitz’s miniature grenade was particularly powerful. Although Huo Shaoheng had tried his best to avoid it, the shrapnel had still injured the parts of his back that were not covered by the bulletproof vest.
His face was a little pale, and his lips were so white that they were almost transparent.
These were all symptoms of severe blood loss.
Lu Jin had not given him a blood transfusion. Instead, he had used an alternative treatment that directly stimulated the human body’s hematopoietic system, speeding up his metabolism and stimulating his own blood circulation.
This type of treatment was much safer than blood transfusions, but it also required much higher medical skills.
Lu Yuan walked in at this time and stood in front of Huo Shaoheng’s bed. He put his hands in his trouser pockets and said softly, “Where’s your father?”
“He’s designing his gene therapy in the lab.”Gu nianzhi whispered, “I’ll contact Reinitz, but it’s best if you don’t come forward. I don’t want Reinitz to think of you.”
Gu Nianzhi was extremely wary of Reinitz. Although Lu Yuan was an expert in this area, Reinitz had met Lu Yuan before. If Reinitz found out about Lu Yuan, the chances of Lu Jin being exposed would be even higher.
Just like Lu Jin, Gu Nianzhi did not want this to happen.
“But I’m even more worried if you step in.”Lu Yuan objected. “This kind of thing is too dangerous. It’s better if I step in.”
“No need.”Gu Nianzhi lowered her eyes and said plainly, “I’m not surprised at all to Reinitz. But you’re different. I don’t want him to find out more.”
Lu Yuan thought for a long time and said, “Then if you’re going to see him, I’ll have to stay close to you.”
“No problem. Just don’t show up.”
Gu Nianzhi finished her discussion with Lu Yuan and started to take action.
However, before she could go to the bank to rent a safe deposit box, she received a call from Reinitz.
“Miss Gu? Do you have time to chat? I have a strand of hair here. I’m sure you’ll be very interested.”
Having said that, Gu Nianzhi had no choice but to go.
Reinitz had arranged to meet her at a small flower bed in front of a five-star hotel in New York.
The place was bustling with people and bustling with activity.
Gu Nianzhi saw Reinitz as soon as she got out of the taxi.
He was wearing a medium-length Burberry trench coat and looked as if he hadn’t slept in a long time. The blackness in his eyes was obvious, and stubble had grown on his thin face. He didn’t look scruffy, but looked unruly and unruly.
She was on one side and he was on the other, separated by a small flower bed.
Tulips of all colors were planted in the flower bed, and they were in full bloom.
The Sky was dark, and the rosy glow of the sunset lit up half of the sky.
Reinitz had a cigarette in his hand. He dusted it off, narrowed his blue eyes, and smiled. “I can’t believe you’re still here.”
He had thought that Gu Nianzhi had fled New York long ago. In fact, he had received news that Gu Nianzhi had already flown back to the Huaxia Empire with another person. The Huaxia Empire was the only place where she could be found.
Gu Nianzhi knew that she had gone to the airport with Lu Yuan to fool a lot of people. She had never thought that she would be able to fool Reinitz as well, but she had never expected that he would call her directly to stop her.
“… are you here to arrest me?”Gu Nianzhi pretended to be uneasy. “But I’m just a front for the committee of State Security (KGB) …”
Reinitz laughed and raised his hand to stop her. “Stop acting with me. I know that your accomplice is Chinese, not Russian.”
Gu nianzhi calmly retorted, “The committee of State Security (KGB) also has Chinese people. For example, the Committee of State Security (KGB) had a lady with the surname Xie. She is Chinese.”
She was talking about Xie Ziyan in this world.
Huo Shaoheng later told her that Xie Ziyan in this world had indeed joined the KGB, but she had never married or had children. She had already passed away.
The fake news about Xie Ziyan getting married and having children in the KGB was deliberately released to cover up Huo Shaoheng’s identity.
Reinitz shrugged. “So What? Why don’t we test the hair for DNA?”
He took out a small transparent plastic bag and waved it at Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi’s eyes sparkled as she smiled. “Mr. Reinitz is really something. He can threaten us with just a strand of hair from anywhere. I’m impressed!”
She cupped her hands and looked relaxed.
Reinitz was slightly taken aback.
Was this strand of hair really not important?
He was not confused by Gu Nianzhi’s performance and continued to probe. “How about we make a Deal?”
“You want to make a deal with just a strand of hair.”Gu Nianzhi shook her head. “Then will I be able to make you abdicate by cutting off a piece of your flesh?”
Reinitz:”…”
“If you don’t want it, then I’ll have to give this strand of hair to the Central Intelligence Agency in the United States. What do you think? The Committee of State Security (KGB) in the United States will definitely be interested in it, right?”
Reinitz’s plan failed, and he had another plan.
Gu Nianzhi finally looked a little scared, but she still said, “Go ahead and say it! See if they’ll talk to You!”
“Haha, then I’ll report them.”Reinitz pretended to take out his phone and dialed a number.
Gu nianzhi said anxiously, “Okay! I’m done with you! What kind of deal do you want to make? !”
Reinitz narrowed his eyes and sized her up, his voice sinking,”… is the person who told me I was sick the owner of this hair?”
Gu Nianzhi was noncommittal. “What do you want? What do you want in exchange for this hair?”
“Since he can see that I’m sick, there should be a cure…”Reinitz said slowly. “Tell me the cure, and I’ll return the hair to you.”
“Huh? !”Gu Nianzhi’s eyes widened. “Are you out of your mind? A hair is worth a life. Why Don’t you go to Heaven? !”
She turned to leave angrily.
Reinitz quickly stopped her and said patiently, “You can’t make the decision. Go tell him that I’m sincere about the deal.”
Gu Nianzhi stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Reinitz. Suddenly, she laughed. “We’re talking about a deal. A strand of hair isn’t enough. Unless you can take something else.”
“That depends on how much your life is worth.”Gu Nianzhi deliberately didn’t say what she wanted, but she wasn’t in a hurry to get her hair back.
This attitude greatly eased Reinitz’s suspicions.
He had never intended to rely on this hair to exchange for resources to keep him alive, but how could he be at ease if he did not test it out?
On the contrary, if the other party agreed immediately, he would know that the owner of this hair was very important to Gu Nianzhi and the others.
Then he would really have to hang it up and sell it.
Reinitz took a drag on his cigarette and tossed the plastic bag over. “Okay, this is my first step of sincerity.”
Gu Nianzhi took the plastic bag and nodded. “Yes, is your sincerity directly proportional to your hair?”
Reinitz shook his head with a smile. “I only have this hair. Believe it or not, it’s up to you.”
Gu Nianzhi shrugged. “It doesn’t matter whether I believe it or not. What matters is whether you want to live or not.”
Reinitz’s smile faded. “How can I not want to live? But how do I know that your method will save my life?”
“You came to us because you believe in it.”Gu Nianzhi patiently tried to persuade him. “So do your best! Show me your sincerity!”
Reinitz watched as Gu Nianzhi waved and called a taxi to leave.
He had no intention of following Gu Nianzhi, because it was no longer important to him what Gu Nianzhi was like now.
He was now taking action for his own life.
..
Gu Nianzhi had come back in Lu Yuan’s taxi.
This time, Lu Yuan’s disguise as a taxi driver was so perfect that even Reinitz did not notice.
The two of them returned to the luxurious apartment on the top floor of Central Park where Lu Yuan and Lu Jin lived. Lu Jin happened to come out of the lab.
Huo Shaoheng had also woken up and was eating at the dining table.
In front of him were a few pieces of t-shaped steak that had just been roasted. They were half-cooked and were lightly pressed with a knife and fork. The sauce was overflowing, fragrant and tender.
Gu Nianzhi was pleasantly surprised. She ran towards him with a smile. “Huo Shao! You’re Awake? !”
Huo Shaoheng cut a piece of steak and put it into his mouth. He chewed slowly and smiled at Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi’s heart was pounding from the smile.
She sat next to Huo Shaoheng and looked him up and down. She wished she could take off his shirt and take a look at the injury on his back.
Huo Shaoheng knew what she meant. He chuckled and said, “When I’m done eating, I’ll go back inside and show you…”
Gu Nianzhi didn’t mean anything by it, but Huo Shaoheng seemed to mean something else when he said it.
Gu Nianzhi’s face slowly turned red. She lowered her head and rubbed the tassels on the tablecloth. She spat lightly.
Lu Yuan pursed his lips and shook his head. He went to the lab to look for Lu Jin.
Lu Jin was wearing a white lab coat and was observing the slices he had made under a microscope.
“How is it? Have you designed the method?”Lu Yuan knocked on the door and asked calmly.
Lu Jin turned around to look at him. “Nianzhi is back too?”
“Yes, she’s talking to Shaoheng in the restaurant.”Lu Yuan walked over slowly. “Where did you get the steak?”
The steak was obviously made by a chef. It looked, smelled, and tasted perfect. It was the most difficult to come by among Western chefs.
Lu Jin said disdainfully, “Of course I got the chef of a three-star Michelin Hotel to order it. Could it have been made by me?”
“You are quite self-aware.”Lu Yuan sat down with a smile and asked softly, “Do you really intend to help Reinitz treat his leukemia?”
At present, Reinitz was the strongest opponent that Lu Yuan had encountered. It could also be because Reinitz was also a person who had been genetically modified.
His intuition was much sharper than the average person’s.
And to do intelligence work, he was simply a talent.
Lu Jin said arrogantly, “Of course I have to treat him. However, before receiving my treatment, his life is in God’s hands. After receiving my treatment, his life is in my hands.”
Lu Jin made a gesture with his right palm facing upwards, his five fingers slowly closing into a fist, as if he had already grasped Reinitz’s little life in his hands.
“What do you mean?”Lu Yuan frowned. “Can you speak properly?”
“Illiterate. I’m speaking in medical terms,”Lu Jin said seriously. “Do you know what real gene therapy is?”
“Real gene therapy will make him open up all his DNA to me. When I use gene therapy to treat his leukemia, I will also plant another ‘bomb’in his genes.”
“If one day, he is ungrateful and wants to go against us, I will ‘detonate’This ‘bomb’and let him die without a sound.”
