Chapter 104 No. 6
Chapter 104 Number Six
The experiment on No. [-] was temporarily put on hold, and No. [-] was resettled in another ordinary room.
Through the glass, Feng Mian saw the boy put on the chain again and sat quietly on the head of the bed.
Dr. Xu seemed to have discovered something from this accident. After taking some No. [-]'s blood, he went straight into the laboratory and didn't come out for several days.
Without his instruction, the rest of the researchers did not dare to start the experiment without permission, so they had to order Feng Mian and Zheng Ming to take care of several important experimental subjects for the time being.
So Feng Mian took over the job and asked Zheng Ming to help Sister Lin, while he temporarily lived on the [-]th floor to "observe" the experimental subject at close range.
No. [-] has been very honest since changing rooms, neither talking nor moving, sitting on the bed like a sculpture.
It's not just him, the same goes for No. [-], No. [-], and No. [-]. There are only four of them. Except for eating and going to the bathroom, they basically don't move around.
The experimental subjects in the other rooms usually read or write something, and do something to pass the time.
And the four of them looked like they were about to wither, as if all their vitality had been sucked out.
Feng Mian learned from Zheng Ming that most of the subjects thought the experiment was just a simple blood draw.
Some of them signed up voluntarily because of generous remuneration, and some of them were orphans who had a glance with No. [-] and the others. Their "talent" was much lower, so they basically wouldn't use their blood.
Most of the time, they are used as a control group to compare experimental subjects with high "talent" and "fitness".
But for the four children whose bodies are more compatible with the blood of the alien beast, they have experienced far more than other experimental subjects.
They seem to have vaguely known the real purpose of this experiment, and also ignorantly predicted their next fate.
Since the last accident, Dr. Xu transferred many experimenters as helpers to help him analyze the data, so the [-]th floor was immediately vacant.
Basically, only one person, Feng Xing, is responsible for delivering meals and other supplies to the experimental subjects on the entire floor.
He also has a lot more time to look for clues.
It's just that when he came to the destroyed No. [-] room again, it had been cleaned up, and all the furnishings inside had been removed, leaving an empty room with a hole.
Feng Mian has confirmed that there is no air wall inside, and there is no exit. This is just an ordinary room, except for the chains that are still left in place.
noon.
Hibernation began to deliver meals to the experimental subjects as usual.
Both No. [-] and No. [-] refused the food, Feng Mian put the plate on the table and left.
Number Six was always in front of the ostrich, from the moment he entered the dormancy to the time he put down the dinner plate and left, this timid and thin boy never raised his head.
Only No. [-] was as comfortable as if he was in his own home. He not only picked on the taste of these meals, but also made a bunch of unreasonable demands for dinner.
"I want to eat medium-rare Kobe steak", "I don't like broccoli, so replace all broccoli with coriander", "Can I put rice in the rice bowl" and so on.
He is beautiful and delicate like a girl, and his words and deeds reveal a kind of arrogance of a wealthy family.
It's hard for Feng Mian to understand how such a child would appear here, but Jiuhao and Xu Xingyi are quite similar.
Ever since seeing No. [-] spitting in the water cup of another temporary substitute experimenter last time, Feng Mian has become even more convinced that beautiful flowers are poisonous.
After the meal is delivered, the sleeper will go to collect the plate every two hours and send it to the cleaning room.
Most of the time, number seven's plate remains motionless, and number eight occasionally takes a few bites.
These two kids were weirder than the rest.
It wasn't until dinner that No. [-] finally spoke to Feng Mian for the first time these days.
"How is number seven now?"
Feng Mian's footsteps when she went out paused: "Do you know each other?"
No. [-] didn't answer, but just repeated the question just now.
Thinking of what Zheng Ming said before that many children here belong to orphanages, Feng Mian thinks that maybe they are from the same courtyard.
"Number Seven is just like you."
After Feng Mian finished answering, Number Eight stopped talking.
He put down the plate and turned to leave, standing in the corridor and couldn't help but look back.
Number Eight sat on the chair with his back turned, and his face could not be seen.
On the second day, No. [-] proposed to see No. [-], he wanted to go out, or asked Feng Mian to bring No. [-] here.
On the [-]th floor, there are basically no other experimenters after Fengmian, so Fengmian can certainly decide.
Only he didn't have the key to Eight's chain.
"I'll bring No. [-] to see you in the afternoon." Feng Mian was a little curious about these two children who were too similar to himself and Chen Wu.
In the end, No. [-] just saw No. [-] who was brought in sleep, and didn't say a word.
No. [-] just glanced at him indifferently, as if just to confirm whether he was still alive, then lowered his head silently.
Number Seven also tacitly turned and left after being silent, and returned to his room.
There was no talk, nothing happened, and nothing could be changed in this brief meeting.
Four days later, Feng Mian heard the news of the experiment again. He was told to hand over the documents in the reference room to Dr. Xu. When he entered the laboratory, he saw the boy sitting on the chair.
Number six was surrounded by a group of experimenters, wearing test tubes from various testing instruments.
He rolled his eyes uneasily, not used to being stared at by a group of people.
After reading the report and analysis handed over by his assistant, Dr. Xu pondered for a moment, and then picked up a needle tube filled with blue liquid from the laboratory table beside him.
He slowly injected the fluid into a vein in Number Six's arm.
Number six hunched his shoulders, sat on the chair tremblingly, and gradually panicked as the liquid was injected.
After about a quarter of an hour, No. [-]'s face turned red, and there seemed to be living creatures wriggling in his veins, and his arms bulged.
His face wrinkled in pain, his eyes narrowed aimlessly, and he moaned unconsciously.
Sister Lin's complexion became ugly: "Stop the experiment, it's really..."
She paused, as if she couldn't find a suitable adjective to describe the scene in front of her at the moment.
But Dr. Xu still insisted: "No, the blood cannot be taken out even if the experiment is stopped now."
Number six's facial features were distorted, and his eyes widened, as if the eyeballs would fall out of their sockets in a second.
His skin kept agitating, and the surrounding researchers frowned at this scene.
Sister Lin turned her head unbearably, suddenly, her eyes froze: "Xingyi, why are you here!?"
Dr. Xu turned his head when he heard that, and looked at the little girl standing in the corner.
The madness on his face dissipated a bit, with a kind of embarrassment after a lie was exposed.
