The Older Man Is Addicted To Pampering His Wife Novel - Chapter 43
Chapter 43: Old Friend
It was that momentary pause that gave Qin Ran a chance. She quickly took off the bracelet with her right hand and activated the mechanism. Then, she used the steel wire hidden in it to strangle the captain’s neck.
Qin Ran counted the time with the beating of her heart. One, two.
Qin Ran only felt at ease when she saw the ghastly bones. As the saying goes, eliminate the weeds by the roots. Of course, it had to be done completely. The mud-like corpse on the ground was indeed shocking, but Qin Ran was already used to it. She was just about to lean against the wall to rest when she met Dr. Wu’s puzzled gaze. She could not help but explain.
“Who exactly are you?” The few corpses in front of her showed that this girl was a ruthless character. Could it be that she was also here for Xuanyuan Seven?
“I… should be considered your old friend.”
Qin Ran’s eyes were filled with gentleness. However, she was currently so weak. Her hands and shoulders were covered in blood.
“Old friend?”
“My name is Ning Qing.”
Upon hearing this name, Dr. Wu was unmoved. He really couldn’t remember who Ning Qing was.
“My father is Ning Yu, my mother is Su Yi.”
What. As soon as these words were spoken, Dr. Wu’s pupils trembled. Just the words Ning Yu and Su Yi made him feel deep veneration.
“You’re the daughter of Academician Ning and Academician Su?”
Upon hearing this, Qin Ran nodded. She had never mentioned her adoptive parents’ identity. The Qin family thought that she was afraid of embarrassing herself. Actually, she was afraid of drawing too much attention from the biological and medical world.
“I’ve always treated Academician Ning as my role model, but I’ve never heard of him giving birth to a child.” Dr. Wu pretended to be calm. There were too many people staring at Xuanyuan Seven in his hand, so it wasn’t wrong to be cautious around strangers.
“I can understand your distrust. After all, I’m a complete stranger to you.” Qin Ran’s body couldn’t hold on anymore. She slowly leaned against the wall and sat on the ground.
“From the first day my parents entered the Academy of Science, they had placed all their energy on the external recovery and regeneration of organ transplants. Twenty-two years ago, when the Xuanyuan Ark was built, my father was elected as the leader of the Xuanyuan Biogenetics Project because of his outstanding work ability. He led fifteen researchers to conduct secret research on the Ark. One of them was Uncle Fang Cong. He was a hearty person, loved to eat savory chinese crepes for breakfast, and always wore a striped shirt. There was Auntie Sui Jing. She was very kind and patient towards the little children, but she spoke with a southern accent.”
The names of his old friends were spoken one after another by Qin Ran. Their preferences and appearances were also described without any difference. The girl before him was really the daughter of an old friend. That kind of feeling as if he had found a family member instantly surged into his heart. After persisting in Xuanyuan Seven research for many years alone, Dr. Wu’s eyes were brimming with tears for the first time.
“Are you really Academician Ning’s daughter?”
Qin Ran nodded. “Then I want to ask, didn’t Xuanyuan Seven’s research disappear with a fire more than ten years ago? Why do you have its research results?”
Actually, regarding Xuanyuan Seven, it had always been a matter of the past that was rarely mentioned by people in the biological and medical scientific circles. Qin Ran had only learned the details because of the uniqueness of her adoptive parents and the environment she grew up in.
In fact, when the Xuanyuan Ark was built, and it sailed into the Atlantic, all the researchers severed all contact with the outside world. All of them devoted themselves to research and were devoted to achieving the external regeneration of organs. Then, they continuously updated the organs in the human body, including the liver, the heart, even the skin and the brain, thereby extending the overall life of humans.
However, they did not expect the human body’s genes to be so unpredictable. Many indicators were not controlled by humans. At the very least, at that time, the research institute did not control all the parameters well, causing the birth of the super brain tissue fluid after a large-scale test, which rapidly increased the IQ and stamina of the experimental creatures.
Later on, when the research direction was divided, more than ten researchers had conflicts because of their inconsistent goals, and someone privately exposed all the information to the media. The poor thought that this technology was expensive and only served the rich, and it incurred the anger of the people, causing the situation to worsen. Thus, the research on Xuanyuan Ark had no choice but to be terminated. All the research data was burnt up. Because it was stopped on the seventh level of research at that time, so many people would refer to this project as Xuanyuan Seven.
