"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"

Ten minutes ago, when Lu Xin pressed Little Nineteen into the corner three times in a row, the laboratory was also shaking.

The test tube, the green liquid in the pool, and the chocolate on the operator's desk all trembled slightly. It was as if this basement was experiencing a minor earthquake, and even the incandescent lights flickered on and off for a moment.

"What's that?"

Zhao Shiming, who was wearing white gloves and adjusting the medicine in the flask, frowned slightly and stopped what he was doing.

Not far away from him, Chen Xun was gently pulling off the mask on his face.

He gently picked up a brain that was squirming slightly and had a strange sense of beauty, and placed it next to Zhao Shiming.

While admiring the brain, a smile appeared on his face, "That is the power of the tyrant."

Zhao Shiming was startled slightly and turned around stiffly. "Is he the tyrant who was stolen by you?"

"Yes, it's just a mutilated body."

Chen Xun said as he took off his gloves and said, "Of course, it's just as scary."

Zhao Shiming glanced at the pool. The red electronic watch on it showed the progress of their experiment:

97%

He was silent for a while and said, "Is there enough time?"

"I will buy enough time."

Chen Xun At this time, he had already walked aside, took off his white coat, and hung it neatly on the hanger.

Then he took out his exquisite watch and a pair of gold-framed glasses from a sundry box next to him, and slowly put them on his hands. On his face, he even straightened his clothes in front of the mirror and lightly licked his hair.

At this time, he no longer looked like a researcher.

Rather, he is a well-dressed young man with a good temperament despite his age.

Zhao Shiming looked at his actions, but his face showed a little solemnity.

After a while, he suddenly put down the test tube, turned to look at Chen Xun and said, "Is it worth it?"

Chen Xun turned around and said with a smile, "Dr. Zhao, don't you think you are looking down on me if you ask me this question at this time?"

There was no smile on Zhao Shiming's face, but he just said, "Then I want to ask, why are you doing this?"

Chen Xun was silent for a while and said with a smile, "Of course it is to give my teacher a satisfactory report card!"

Zhao Shiming took a deep breath.

Suddenly he took off the glove on his right hand and solemnly handed his palm to Chen Xun.

Chen Xun was startled for a moment, then slowly raised his head and said, "At this point, is it worth wasting this little time?"

Zhao Shiming nodded. "It's worth it."

Chen Xun stopped talking, but stretched out his hand and held hands with Zhao Shiming.

"Happy to work with!"

Zhao Shiming released his palm, put on his gloves again, and continued his experiment.

Chen Xun picked up a stopwatch on the table next to him, turned and walked towards the door of the laboratory. In the entire laboratory, everyone was still doing their own thing with their heads down, as if no one noticed what he was going to do at this time.

Only the old cleaning lady looked up at Chen Xun, her lips trembled slightly, and a few muddy tears fell from the corners of her eyes.

Chen Xun smiled at her and nodded.

Then he stood at the door of the laboratory, bowed lightly to the people inside, and turned to leave.

"Thank you all for your efforts."

Lu Xin held his sister's hand and walked into this desolate building.

The surroundings were dark, with only the sparse lights on the streets outside letting in a little faint light.

But after his eyes adjusted to the darkness in the building, he could still see that the first floor of the building was very wide.

It used to be a vast hall, with thick dust everywhere on the ground, as well as messy wooden shelves, papers, glass fragments, etc. It seemed to be no different from other abandoned buildings, except that something seemed to be crawling in the darkness.

Lu Xin just stopped for a moment and continued walking forward without even taking out the flashlight.

The things in the darkness seemed to be afraid of him, and as he advanced, they began to shrink into deeper darkness.

"Wipe" "wipe" "wipe"

In this deadly silent building, only the slight footsteps of Lu Xin could be heard.

He tilted his head slightly, listening to something, and then walked forward slowly, getting closer to his destination little by little.

As he walked through a desolate corridor and was about to find a way into the underground, he suddenly stopped.

He turned his head slightly and looked to the right side of the corridor, a place with no lights at all.

His pupils shrank slightly, as if he had seen someone.

"Crack!"

At this moment, the sound of a lighter suddenly came on, and then a candle was lit.

Through the candlelight, you can see that there is a bar that has been abandoned for an unknown period of time. In front of it is a curved bar table covered with dust, and the shelves in the back are full of wine bottles that are either covered with thick dust or half broken.

A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses was lighting candles one by one, and the light gradually filled the bar.

"Crack..."

Suddenly there was a faint sound from beside me.

My sister was gritting her teeth and staring at the man behind the bar.

Her eyes seemed to be filled with hatred and confusion.

She raised her hand and hit her little head, and then looked at the person behind the bar even more fiercely.

But she didn't try to tell Lu Xin what she was thinking about now.

Lu Xin didn't ask, just held his sister's hand and walked slowly towards the bar.

At this time, I felt slightly relaxed.

Finally I found Chen Xun, my relative from the orphanage.

Inside the bar, the man had lit a dozen candles, illuminating the surrounding area as brightly as if a light had been turned on. Then he took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the thick dust around him. After a few strokes, the handkerchief turned completely black.

Lu Xin came to the bar, stood next to a high stool that was still standing, patted the dust on it, and sat down.

"Coming?"

The man wearing gold-rimmed glasses smiled and glanced at him, as if greeting an old friend.

He took out a set of sealed cups and cups from the cabinet under the bar, and took out a bottle of whiskey with more than half of the golden liquid in it. He poured four glasses of wine, one of which he put in front of him, and the other three glasses were pushed in front of Lu Xin at the same time.

This action is as if he is entertaining not one guest, but three guests.

Lu Xin looked at the three cups and didn't speak, but frowned slightly.

He was not interested in playing this kind of game of courtesy first and then attack. He was just thinking about how he should look better.

"Remember me?"

The man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, or Chen Xun, smiled and picked up the cup.

But he didn't drink it, he just took a deep breath, with a look of pleasure on his face.

"I have a little impression, and I just remembered it."

Lu Xin answered honestly, looking at him. "But I know that you are also from our orphanage."

"It's normal for you to have little impression of me."

Chen Xun said with a smile, "After all, at that time, I was responsible for other things, and I didn't have much contact with you. Only a few people in the entire orphanage have seen me... What's more, so many years have passed, and you have become like this."

Lu Xin was silent for a while, then raised his head slightly, his eyes as deep as a well.

He asked stiffly, "That girl... what's going on?"

"Have you forgotten?"

Chen Xun held the cup in his hand and smiled, "Her code name is Nineteen."

Lu Xin's pupils shrank slightly.

Chen Xun The cup was brought to his mouth, but he never drank it. After a while, he shook his head slightly and said with a self-deprecating smile, "I used to like to enjoy such things the most, but later, in order to protect my mind and sanity, and to prevent my hands from shaking during surgery, I have quit for many years. Now when I smell it again, the smell is still as fragrant, but my courage is less..."

After pondering for a moment, he made up his mind and drank it in one gulp.

But Lu Xin suddenly grabbed his wrist and whispered, "What did you do to her?"

Chen Xun stopped and watched Lu Xin grab his palm.

After a slight start, he put down the wine glass with his other hand and put his hand in his pocket. Lu Xin didn't mean to stop him at all, he just let him do it, and didn't seem to care at all whether what he took out would be a pistol or something else.

Chen Xun took out just an old stopwatch.

The hands above are moving slowly, and the set time is ten minutes.

"This is a parasitic item, the serial number is 2-31, Wish Countdown."

Chen Xun placed the stopwatch on the table next to him, looked into Lu Xin's eyes, and said softly, "When you start this stopwatch, make a wish. Then when the stopwatch returns to zero, the wish will come true..."

"Sounds interesting, doesn't it?"

"Actually, this is just an illusion. Sequence 2 parasitic products do not yet have the ability to change reality."

"The only thing it can change is itself."

"..."

"However, it is still very useful in some special circumstances."

He smiled and continued to explain, "For example, the wish I made was to make myself lose all my memories, or my heart suddenly stopped, or my mental power exploded directly, destroying my brain..."

"Whatever you do to me midway, or destroy this stopwatch, will cause this situation to happen immediately."

"So, I will use these ten minutes to have a good chat with you..."

"..."

Lu Xin glanced at the stopwatch with a quiet expression.

Chen Xun laughed and said, "Tell me, what exactly do you want to ask?"

Lu Xin looked at him expressionlessly, as if thinking carefully, and then he slowly spoke:

"What exactly did you do to that little girl...Little Nineteen?"

"..."

"I just kept her alive."

Chen Xun raised his head and looked at Lu Xin, his eyes looking very calm at this time.

As he spoke, he looked directly into Lu Xin's eyes. "Isn't this much better than you?"

The corners of his eyes wrinkled slightly, and he seemed to be smiling, "When you faced her just now, did you feel particularly familiar?"

"After all, this is not the first time you have killed her..."

"I'm curious, how did you feel when you brutally killed everyone in the laboratory..."

"Sad?"

I'll just do two updates today, it's really a bit overwhelming.
