Chapter 207 Admiral Beta is the romantic male partner (33)
Qiao Yu sat in the dim room, holding the mobile phone tightly in his hand. The bright light on the screen seemed particularly dazzling in the darkness.
His eyes were fixed on the words on the screen. They were like a preview, a farewell that seemed to foreshadow some kind of end.
These words set off a huge wave of shock in his heart. His hands began to slowly tighten, and the edge of the phone almost embedded in his palm.
There was no light in the room, only the screen of the mobile phone provided a faint light source for the space.
The light source shone on Qiao Yu's face, making his facial features look strange and eerie in the interweaving of light and dark.
His lips trembled slightly, and his voice was low and hoarse, as if squeezed out from the depths of his throat: "Don't abandon me, I will go crazy..."
These words echoed in the silent room like a spell or a desperate plea.
On the other side, Lin Shen knew nothing about it.
He has rested long enough and tomorrow he will return to work at the military headquarters to continue his duties.
Qiao Yu's expression became increasingly distorted, with fear and unwillingness flashing in his eyes.
The words on the phone screen seemed to become blurred as he stared at them. Then the words came alive, jumping before his eyes, mocking his helplessness.
"I'm going to go crazy..." He whispered again, his voice almost inaudible. This sentence was like his last line of defense. Once it was broken, he would have nothing.
And in this silent night, no one could hear his inner voice, and no one could stop him from falling into the abyss.
?
The next morning, Lin Shen drove to the military headquarters.
He felt a little excited because the purpose of his trip was not a routine matter, but to learn about the latest developments of the Zerg.
As far as he knows, this research has made a substantial breakthrough.
When we arrived at the Military Research Institute, the sun had just risen and many researchers had just arrived at their work stations.
Lin Shen walked through the familiar corridor and happened to meet the middle-aged researcher he had communicated with last time at the entrance.
As soon as the middle-aged man saw Lin Shen, he came up to him with a smile.
"Admiral, why are you here?" the middle-aged researcher asked enthusiastically.
Lin Shen stretched out his hand, shook the man briefly, and replied, "I heard that your research has made new progress. I came to take a look."
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up instantly when he heard this, and his excitement was beyond words. "Yes, Admiral, we have separated the blood of the Zerg sample and compared it with human blood."
As he spoke, he led Lin Shen towards the laboratory.
The two walked side by side, and the middle-aged man continued to explain: "We found that the blood of this Zerg has undergone a significant mutation. It is very different from the Zerg samples we have been studying. His blood genes have tended to be closer to human blood genes. This change is very rare."
Lin Shen frowned. This information was both a surprise and a challenge to him.
He was well aware of the threat posed by the Zerg. If their blood genes really began to approach those of humans, it would be a whole new test for humanity's defense strategies.
They talked as they walked, and soon arrived at the place where Lin Shen observed the Zerg sample last time.
The atmosphere in the laboratory was more tense and busy than last time. Researchers were shuttling between various laboratory tables, and the instruments and equipment were making a slight humming sound.
Lin Shen stood in front of the observation window of the laboratory, lowered his head like last time, and looked directly into the pair of vertical pupils.
The Zerg sample has been dressed in new "clothing", wearing clothes similar to hospital gowns, and looks well-behaved, just like a normal human being.
But at this moment, its wings inadvertently spread out and waved slightly. This scene made Lin Shen's brows tighten involuntarily.
He really looks like a human, Lin Shen thought. His appearance and behavior, if not for his vertical pupils and the wings that occasionally appear, it would be almost impossible to distinguish him from other humans.
Lin Shen's eyes gradually became deep, and the middle-aged man beside him also looked serious, and his voice was heavy: "We injected his blood into the mice and found that the mice showed the characteristics of the Zerg, such as bloodthirstiness and uncontrolled behavior."
The man paused and continued, "We all wondered, if this blood was injected into a human body, would it make the person bloodthirsty, uncontrollable, or even grow wings, just like that person."
The "one" he was referring to was exactly what Lin Shen had in mind, the powerful former admiral Chu Qingqian. She was the one who suddenly became bloodthirsty and out of control on the battlefield, and grew wings.
But only the person she trusted the most could inject her with this blood in front of someone as powerful as her, so Lin Shen frowned even more tightly.
He remembered that apart from a younger brother who grew up with her, he had never heard of anyone else having a close relationship with Chu Qingqian.
But this doesn't mean anything. What if Chu Qingqian does exist but no one knows about it? We have to ask Chu Xu about this.
Lin Shen looked away from the Zerg, and gently touched the gun on his waist. He said firmly, "You continue your research. If you come up with accurate experimental results, it will be a great benefit to our Federation Empire."
The middle-aged man also understood the importance of this research to the Federation, so he nodded solemnly.
Lin Shen nodded again, took one last look at the Zerg, then turned around and left the laboratory.
He left, and naturally did not notice that the ingratiating smile on the Zerg's face suddenly froze, and was replaced by a sticky, almost unconcealable desire.
The Zerg's eyes were fixed on Lin Shen's departing back, until the moment the door closed, the corners of its mouth slowly curled up, revealing a determined smile.
After this matter came to an end, Lin Shen returned to his office. He had just sat down and started the work at hand when there was a knock on the door.
Lin Shen stopped what he was doing, pinched his brows lightly, and said tiredly, "Come in."
The door was pushed open and Qu Zhou walked in. His expression was extremely serious, followed by three tall and imposing men.
Lin Shen's gaze immediately rested on the three of them, with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
Qu Zhou took a step forward and respectfully reported to Lin Shen: "Sir, I have completed the registration procedures according to your instructions, and now I have brought the person here."
Lin Shen nodded slightly, indicating that Qu Zhou could leave. Qu Zhou pursed his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he did not speak, but just retreated respectfully and closed the door considerately.
Lin Shen didn't care about these details, his attention was completely attracted by the three newcomers.
He stood up from behind his desk and began pacing between the three men, his eyes sharp as if he was assessing the worth and ability of each of them.
Although these three people felt honored to be examined by Lin Shen in person, nervousness still prevailed.
They stood straight, trying not to reveal any flaws under such pressure.
Every time Lin Shen got closer, their heartbeats quickened and tiny beads of sweat even began to appear on their foreheads.
Lin Shen looked at them carefully, taking in every detail from their height, body shape to their eyes and aura.
Finally, Lin Shen stopped in front of them. His eyes swept over their faces one by one, and his tone was calm but unquestionable: "I know you have all been strictly selected, but here, you will face greater challenges. I hope you can prove your worth."
The three of them responded in unison. Although there was tension in their voices, there was more firmness and determination.
