Chapter 61: Probe For Information
What Xiao Feng hadn’t expected was that these female students he brought back had been injected with crystal core powder.
"Damn it! I even saved them!" Xiao Feng pounded the wall in frustration.
He had thought that by handing these girls over to Bai Zhi and her group, he could provide them with a safe place. However, these girls had been used as experintal subjects.
Behind Bai Zhi’s seemingly cold and harmless exterior was a heart filled with inhumane evil. All the girls had been injected with crystal core powder and so special anesthetic powder, which was why they didn’t feel any pain.
Bai Zhi had ntioned that the other people from the city had suffered significant psychological trauma due to the previous incident and were put down. Now it seed likely that these people had beco experintal sacrifices.
Xiao Feng couldn’t help but think about their previous trip to the city to find the bottle of mutant serum. Without a doubt, there must be a biochemical laboratory within Shelter 9.
For example, the mist that triggered the collective evolution of zombies yesterday indicated that their shelter definitely had experts in the field of biochemistry.
On the way back today, the girl who died probably had a reaction to the crystal core powder in her body, leading to her poisoning and death.
Different crystal core attributes couldn’t be forcefully fused. Even Xiao Feng could only use common hot pot broth to counteract the side effects of the crystal core.
"Spicy Tripe Soup!" Xiao Feng’s eyes lit up. "I wonder if feeding them hot pot broth now can save them."
Thinking about this, Xiao Feng imdiately said to Gao Ya, "Co with !"
In the kitchen, Xiao Feng made hot pot broth while Gao Ya helped. He explained to Gao Ya, "Your classmates have all been injected with crystal core powder by Shelter 9, similar to intravenous drug use. But these powders contain an anesthetic. That’s why they didn’t react to it. I’m preparing a dish right now, which might neutralize the toxicity of the crystal core powder."
With Gao Ya’s help, Xiao Feng successfully made several portions of hot pot broth. With the assistance of everyone in the restaurant, Xiao Feng fed the hot pot broth to the twelve girls.
"Now, we can only pray," Xiao Feng sighed and arranged rooms for everyone. Four people per room, he made sure the twelve girls were settled.
After a long day of work and having dinner, Xiao Feng took so milk and gave it to the black cat as a late-night snack.
"Little buddy, you have to eat well. You must recover quickly, okay?" Xiao Feng stroked the cat’s head and then went upstairs to rest.
After Xiao Feng went upstairs, the black cat surprisingly opened its mouth and slowly uttered three words: "Thank you!"
This black cat had spoken!
If Xiao Feng had heard this conversation, he would have been quite surprised.
The next day, the shelter’s healer arrived early.
Xiao Feng looked at the healer and couldn’t help but smile. As expected, the allure of his generous compensation was working its magic. Xiao Feng knew that he couldn’t earn this kind of money within the shelter.
Money could indeed move mountains. After today’s treatnt session, Xiao Feng generously gave the healer a second-order crystal core.
He also gave each of the people who ca with the healer a first-order crystal core. Of course, Xiao Feng wasn’t giving these away for free.
Under the temptation of these crystal core, Xiao Feng successfully gathered so information about Shelter 9 from them.
"By the way, I heard Bai ng say that your research seems to have encountered so difficulties!"
After the treatnt session, Xiao Feng casually asked, as if engaging in small talk.
Upon hearing this, the group of people exchanged glances, not knowing how to respond. To be honest, they were just small fry and didn’t have much knowledge about these matters.
However, one of them, who had just received the crystal core from Xiao Feng, imdiately said, "You should ask the healer; he knows a lot. We’ve only heard rumors. They said that the Commander’s sister has made progress in new experints!"
"Cough, cough!" At that mont, the healer coughed lightly.
"Healer, what’s wrong? Is your throat bothering you?" the person who spoke earlier asked in confusion.
"Would you like
to treat you as well?" The healer rolled his eyes upon hearing this.
But seeing Xiao Feng looking at him, he couldn’t help but awkwardly smile and say, "Actually, I don’t know much about these matters!"
"Oh! I was just asking casually. Bai ng ntioned it to
last ti, and I wanted to see if you guys knew how things were progressing!" Xiao Feng said nonchalantly.
"Why wouldn’t you know? You should tell the boss; it’s not like it’s a big deal, and he and the Commander have a good relationship!" The person who spoke earlier quickly chid in.
"Your kid is talking nonsense! These are all classified matters. Can you just casually talk about them?" The healer couldn’t tolerate it any longer and imdiately scolded.
"The boss already knows, and we’re all part of the sa team. What’s the harm in sharing a bit? The boss isn’t clueless. It’s not like we’re revealing state secrets," the guy muttered.
"Cough, cough, well, boss, these are things we don’t usually inquire about. Whatever the Commander asks us to do, we just do it. I’m only responsible for treating the experintal subjects. I truly don’t know about the rest!" the healer explained with a nervous laugh.
"Hehe, why are you so nervous? I was just asking casually. Don’t worry!" Xiao Feng replied with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, are you the only healer in your shelter? I’ve heard recently that Bai ng is planning to hire another healer from elsewhere at a high price, specifically for the lab’s dical work. Have you heard about this?"
"What? Hiring at a high price?"
The healer was taken aback. "I haven’t heard anything about it."
Seeing this, Xiao Feng imdiately asked suspiciously, "Could it be that your treatnts have no effect on the experintal subjects?"
"That’s impossible! After the subjects are injected with the agents, they have a maximum of 72 hours of anesthesia and reaction ti. During this process, I can completely redy them. There’s no need to hire another healer," the healer replied.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. You should be careful. Healer are already rare, and if they hire another one, your status will definitely decline," Xiao Feng shook his head.
Xiao Feng’s clever maneuvering was like "Two Peaches Kill Three Scholars," executed with ease. Upon hearing his words, the healer felt a looming threat.
"However, since Bai ng is planning to specifically hire a lab healer, it suggests that there might be an issue with your thods. Why don’t you tell
how you treat these experintal subjects? I can take a look and maybe offer so advice. It could help you figure out where the problem lies," Xiao Feng suggested.
Upon hearing this, the healer imdiately provided Xiao Feng with so basic information about the lab.
