Her suggestion was much more tempting to Mr. Zhou than number six’s so-called empty promise. She also believed that Mr. Zhou was a smart man and would not refuse her proposal. Having a free bodyguard on the island would increase the chances of survival in such a dangerous environment.
If he was worried that there was something wrong with their identities and that his secret would be exposed, he could have dealt with them after the matter was settled.
Mr. Zhou’s eyes flickered. In his heart, he had already agreed with her idea, but he was still puzzled.
“What good will it do you?”
“Actually, I’m the same as ‘smart people’. We just want to live.”
However, number six was too arrogant, so she changed her words to make it easier for Mr. Zhou to accept.
The air pressure in the champagne bottle pushed the cork out, but she pressed it down with her hand and slowly let it go.
The sweet smell filled the room. Mr. Zhou looked at her deeply and finally smiled. He motioned for Zhou xueli to get the wine glasses on the dining cart. Song qingxiao poured two glasses. The two of them clinked their glasses and reached a temporary agreement.
Because of song qingxiao’s words, Mr. Zhou gave up the idea of killing. His lips touched the glass.
indeed, we set up an experimental base on the island at that time to extract the genes needed in the genome of specific organisms, improve them, and synthesize special DNA genes. Then, we injected them into the bodies of the organisms to cause genetic recombination.
At this point, he was willing to talk about the details of the experiment with song qingxiao. After all, in Mr. Zhou’s eyes, the lives of song qingxiao and the others were only temporary for his own use. When he wanted to, he could reap them at any time.
the purpose of this is to finally apply it to humans, so that humans can break through the current limitations and evolve to a deeper level. Do you understand?”
When he mentioned this, his eyes lit up and he was a little excited.
if this experiment is successful, it will be a worldwide achievement and a blessing for all mankind.
Song Qing chuckled and did not say anything.
If things had really gone so smoothly, there wouldn’t have been any trouble.
Mr. Zhou also realized the intention behind her smile. His boiling blood cooled down in an instant, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on him.
His expression gradually calmed down, and he said with some regret,”
“It’s a pity that I failed.”
It was useless to say all this now. He said hypocritically,”
“However, we’ve already made some new progress. The genes of the creatures on the island seem to be much more stable than before. Once we succeed in obtaining them, mankind will be able to take a big step forward. By then, you and I will both be heroes, and we may not have to kill each other.”
Song qingxiao didn’t believe his nonsense at all, but she still pretended to be relieved,”
“That’s great,”
After both sides exchanged pleasantries, Mr. Zhou seemed to have remembered something and returned to his polite posture. He raised his wrist to look at the time and made a somewhat annoyed expression.
“It’s getting late. I hit it off with miss song at first sight, but 1 didn’t expect to chat for so long. We’ll be on the island before dawn, so please have a good rest tonight, miss song.”
Song qingxiao naturally agreed. Before Mr. Zhou left, she suggested that Mr. Zhou let number six and the others off for the time being. Mr. Zhou generously gave her this ‘favor’ and promised not to pursue it.
She opened the door to see Mr. Zhou and the others off. As soon as the armed bodyguard left the room, the crisis was temporarily over.
After locking the door, young general song Qing went through the conversation she had with A4r. Zhou that night in her mind. She had pleaded for No. 6 and the others not because she really wanted to cooperate with this group of people, nor because this mission required them to work together.
It was just that until now, she had not really understood the purpose of this trial mission. At the same time, Mr. Zhou was as sly as a fox. Keeping the other trial-takers was also to be on guard against Mr. Zhou and the others.
As Mr. Zhou had said, it was getting late. Song qingxiao did not try to cultivate her spiritual power that night. There were still unknown dangers waiting for her on the island before dawn. She wanted to face the mission in her best condition.
Song qingxiao forced herself to fall asleep. Ever since she entered the trial scenario, she had always been on edge, which was not good for her upcoming trip to the island.
She didn’t sleep very well. She didn’t know how much time had passed, but she was suddenly woken up by the squeaking sound of the steel bed as the ship swayed under the sea.
Before going to bed last night, Mr. Zhou must have told someone to inform the people on the ship to rest well and prepare for today’s trip to the island.
He didn’t know if the others were asleep or scared or worried, but other than the sound of the ship sailing, it was extremely quiet.
The cheers and laughter on the ship a few days ago seemed to have happened a long time ago. In contrast, the silence seemed to be a little uncomfortable..
