Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

"Then let's go."

Li Ang stepped forward and hugged Rosemary, and the kitten hugged his neck affectionately.

The hair of both of them is also white, but Li Ang's hair color is pale without a trace of color, while Rosemary's hair is plump with a hint of light blue that is not easily noticeable.

In addition, Li Ang put on a more mature outfit, and in a place where the light was not very strong, the two of them did look somewhat like a father and daughter.

After the group left the hotel, they hailed a taxi. The hotel where they stayed was not very far from Rheinland Life's headquarters building. In just a few minutes, Rheinland Life's headquarters building appeared on the edge of their field of vision.

The design style of that building is quite unique. From a distance, it looks like several rings with different radii but different thicknesses stacked on top of each other. There is also a slightly smaller ring not far away. The two buildings together form A structure similar to the Rhine symbol of life.

Just from the size and design of the headquarters building, you can roughly judge their strength.

Rheinland Life is a research-oriented institution that rarely involves actual production. The small factory owned by their engineering department can already meet the needs of internal testing, so the area of ​​the headquarters is not very large.

As soon as Li Ang and the others got off the car, they saw a brown-haired Liboli woman wearing round glasses standing in front of the gate, looking back and forth anxiously.

If nothing else, it should be Olivia Hummer.

At this time, there were not many pedestrians coming to the main entrance of Rhine Life. Li Ang and the three of them were very conspicuous in the crowd, and Hemer locked their group of people at a glance.

Hermer's eyes suddenly lit up, and he ran over immediately, panting and saying, "Excuse me...Excuse me..."

After staying in the laboratory for many years without activities, Hemer's physical fitness was really worrying. He was out of breath just after running a few steps.

"Ms. Homer, right?"

After glancing at the name on the other party's badge and confirming that he had not identified the wrong person, Li Ang said to her, "Don't worry, you did not find the wrong person. I was the one who contacted you just now."

"Huh...hug, sorry...I made you laugh."

After taking a deep breath, Hemo finally calmed down his fierce heartbeat.

When she raised her head, Li Ang discovered that Miss Hemmer actually had a pair of thick dark circles on her face, looking like she hadn't slept well in months.

In Li Ang's perception, Hermer's mental state is also very worrying. Her thinking activities will be interrupted for a moment from time to time, although each time lasts for less than half a second, and it may not even be the case for Hermer himself. Perceived, but this is indeed a rather dangerous sign.

Is the work at Rheinland Life so hard?Li Ang couldn't help but be a little confused.

Considering that the relationship between him and Hemo was not that familiar, Li Ang didn't say much.

"Please follow me. The experimental building of the Structure Department is over here."

Using his ID card to help Li Ang and others pass the turnstile, Helmer led them towards the laboratory building on the west side of the headquarters.

When they approached the laboratory building, a gray-haired old man Caprini had been waiting there for a long time.

"Teacher Parvis, why are you here?"

Seeing Parvis waiting at the door of the building, he was very surprised and went up to meet him.

Hearing this, Parves replied gently, "Hemer, you may not understand yet, but this joint consultation is of great significance to the structural department, so after hearing the news, I immediately put down what I was doing and rushed. come over."

"Is that so..." Helmer looked a little confused.

"I'll tell you the specific reasons later." Parvis smiled and patted Hemmer on the shoulder.

Nodding, Hemo did not continue to struggle with this issue.

Then, Parvis walked towards Leon and Adele.

He opened his arms as if he wanted to take the rosemary from Li Ang's arms, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, give me the child, and someone from the business department will come to assist you with the next procedures later. "

Li Ang took a step back and reopened the distance between him and Parvis.

"...What do you mean? Is there any problem?" Parvis frowned, his expression looking a little unhappy.

"Director Parvis, I think you may have misunderstood. We are not employees of Rhode Island," Leon looked at Parvis and said with a smile, "We are Rosemary's adoptive parents."

At the first sight of Parvis, Leon already realized that this old guy... was definitely not a good person.

Although on the surface he looks like a good old man who is cheerful all day long, Parvez's inner mood swings are completely opposite to the expression on his face. From his bones, he reveals a kind of love that is similar to Ayin's. A temperament that studies but despises legal ethics.

This actually reassured Li Ang. There were too many hidden problems in the world. If scientists weren't a bit crazy, they might not be able to get to the forefront of technological development.

This old guy may not have any morals, but at least his ability level is guaranteed.

"Adoptive parents?" Parvis raised his eyebrows, the expression on his face looked a little gloomy.

"What? Director Parvis doesn't believe it? I have brought a complete set of adoption procedures. Director, do you need to confirm it?"

Li Ang narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile, "Or...director, do you think that even as adoptive parents, we are not qualified to supervise your treatment process?"

The originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly changed. Hemo on the side hesitated to speak, and she didn't know how to intervene in the conversation between the two parties.

Perhaps because of the sequelae of the operation, Rosemary was more sensitive to this atmosphere that was difficult to describe in words. She squeezed nervously into Li Ang's arms.

Noticing this detail, Parvis soon realized that even if the man and woman in front of him were not the so-called adoptive parents, the relationship between them and the experimental subjects was closer than imagined.

It seems... there were a lot of changes in this experiment, and it was not as easy to realize his idea as it was at the beginning.

"Of course, of course...your request is very reasonable." Parvis pushed up his glasses and said kindly.

"I just didn't expect that anyone would be willing to adopt an...infected person."

Parvis was obviously about to say something more outrageous just now, but fortunately he changed his words in time at the last moment, which made his words sound a bit harsh, but in fact there was not much of a problem.

Patients with mineral sickness are such an unpopular existence.

"Now we have it," Li Ang said calmly, "Orestone disease is just a more difficult disease. I thought you researchers were very aware of this matter."

"Theoretically, this is true, but if you understand it, you will still be afraid if you should be afraid." Parvis said with emotion, "Even if we know that ore disease is almost impossible to spread through daily contact, there are still some How many people would be willing to bet the rest of their lives on this possibility, eating and living with an infected person?"

When they said these words, Parvis and Hemo had complicated emotions in their hearts at the same time.

Even in a place like Rheinland Life, where the minimum academic qualification is a doctorate, it can't eliminate discrimination against infected people... Leon couldn't help but think of Elena. It seems that she can stay at Rheinland Life, which is entirely due to Phil. Dinant's work.

"Hemo, you happen to have experience in this area, so the next work will be left to you. You can stop other work on your hands and focus on this project first."

After Parvis said these words, he left without looking back.

With these two so-called adoptive parents disrupting the situation, Parves had to be more restrained in his actions.

Since he can't take action now, Parvis has naturally lost interest in staying here. He still has many important projects on hand that need to be hosted personally, but he has no time to waste here.

"Huh...then you two, please come with me."

Seeing that the atmosphere had calmed down slightly, Hemer breathed a sigh of relief and said to Leon and Adele, "Next... we need to do a full-body examination on this child."

"...Her name is Rosemary."

With that said, Li Ang gently put down Rosemary, but then Rosemary tightly grabbed the corner of his clothes.

Li Ang whispered to her, "I have something I want to talk to this...sister. Can you go and stay with Adele for a while first?"

After hearing what Leon said, Rosemary reluctantly let go of her hand, ran to the side obediently, and held Adele's hand.

Then, Li Ang waved to Hemo and said, "Miss Hemo, please come here. I have a few things to tell you."

"......no problem."

Parvez's previous words mentioned more or less details, and Hemo could roughly guess some things. After all, this was not the first time she had seen a similar situation.

After following Li Ang to a corner, Helmer couldn't help but ask, "That child... is she a victim of some experiment?"

"Yes...it seems that this kind of thing is not uncommon in Colombia at all," Li Ang casually sarcastic about Colombia's moral standards, and then continued, "That's exactly what I want to talk to you about."

"Although it has been mentioned in Rhode Island's medical records, I still want to remind you again just in case."

"The inhumane experiment caused Rosemary psychological trauma that is extremely difficult to heal. In addition, her mental age is much lower than her actual age. Some of the more common things in the laboratory are likely to cause irritation to her."

For example, white coat, scalpel, talking about a white coat holding a scalpel.

"For the sake of the child... and for the safety of all of you, please be sure not to irritate Rosemary."

"...I understand." Hemo nodded solemnly.

Chapter 11

Li Ang is not trying to scare people.

Although he knew that Li Ang was very powerful, after he made the decision to adopt Rosemary, Kelsey still provided him with some videos taken when Rosemary went berserk.

The video was very short, less than ten seconds, because after that, everything in the room was destroyed, even the hidden camera was no exception.

Although the camera was unable to capture Rosemary's brothers, we can roughly imagine the original scene.

An invisible force descended on every corner of the room, and every item inside was squeezed to pieces by that force. Even the thick alloy walls were twisted into various strange shapes like mud. appearance.

This is still the unconscious rampage of Originium's skills after being stimulated. If Rosemary takes the initiative to control it, she can easily destroy the armor layer of the land carrier.

In addition, Rosemary's brothers...well...even if Rosemary loses consciousness, her brothers will instinctively protect Rosemary's safety and use Originium skills. .

If Rhine Life tries to commit suicide, then a bloody massacre will definitely break out here. Li Ang doesn't think anyone's bones can be stronger than alloy.

"Excuse me, I remember... Rosemary's child should also be from Colombia. Do I know which experiment she is a survivor of?"

Helmer pushed up his glasses and said with a serious face, "Since the tutor has asked me to be in charge of this child, I will do my best. If possible... I will also try my best to help collect those The experimental data will be of great help to the child’s treatment.”

"If it's really inconvenient, just pretend I didn't say this."

Li Ang could feel that Hemo was sincere when he said these words.

She is still young and looks to be a few years older than Elena. She has probably only joined Rhine Life not long ago and has not been contaminated by this big dye vat. She still retains the innocence of a student.

If there is anyone in Rhine's life that he can trust, then Hemer in front of him is definitely one of them.

"This matter itself is not a secret. Director Parvis will probably tell you later, but since you asked about it, I will tell you by the way."

Li Ang shook his head slightly, "Although I am very grateful for your willingness to help, I am afraid that those experimental data are not available to you. You must have heard of the experiments that Rosemary went through... No, it should be said that the entire Colombian science I’m afraid there’s no one in the world who doesn’t know about that experiment.”

"Lorken water tank." Li Ang slowly said these words.

"What?? That Lorcan water tank of Lorcan Williams? There are actually survivors in that experiment?"

When Hemo heard this, she was so frightened that she almost jumped up from the ground, but she quickly realized what she had just said, and hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it... I just... I’m just a little too surprised.”

"It's understandable," Li Ang nodded, "However, I think you should also know now how difficult it is to get the experimental data of the Loken water tank."

Frowning, Helmer said with some confusion, "But... I remember, didn't Rhine Life have already obtained part of the data on the Loken water tank?"

"That's right. Otherwise, why would Rhode Island agree to a joint consultation with Rhine Life?" Li Ang sneered.

Rhine Life's calculations could be heard in Casimir, but they just happened to take advantage of Rhode Island's weakness, forcing them to bow their heads.

Hearing this, Hermer's expression suddenly became very exciting. She was not an idiot, so she could naturally guess Rhine Life's intention of doing this.

"How could they do this..." Helmer muttered.

Although rationally Hemer knew that Rhine Life was fighting for its own interests. After all, there was only one experimental subject in the Loken water tank. If he missed it, he would miss it forever.

But emotionally, Homer couldn't accept that they were taking advantage of such a young child...and she was pathetic enough in her own right.

Helmer felt like he was rushing over to Director Parvis to ask him what was going on.

He reluctantly suppressed this impulse, still holding back a breath that he couldn't swallow, "I will find a way to help."

"Thank you for your kindness." Li Ang nodded, but he didn't have much hope in Hemo's promise.

Facing a huge organization, there is really very little that a little researcher like Helmer can do by himself.

"Ms. Hemmer, I have another question. The agreement mentions that the Melander Foundation will send representatives to supervise Rhine Life's operations. I would like to ask when they can come?"

Now that it was confirmed that Helmer was on his side, Leon did not hide his distrust of Rhine's life.

"They...may be a while away."

Hemo frowned, and it was obvious that she didn't really like dealing with people from the Melander Foundation, but she still answered Li Ang's question.

"There has not yet been a physical examination on Rosemary, and it will take some time for analysis after the examination is completed... Once the treatment plan is officially finalized and handed over to them for review, the Melander Foundation will send a representative. Monitor the entire treatment process.”

"Thanks for letting me know..."

Li Ang silently thought in his heart that if the old goat wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to do something, excluding them from buying out the Melander Foundation in advance, this period of time would be their last chance to make a move.

So Li Ang pondered for a moment and said slowly to Hemo, "Miss Hemo, I have something to ask you."

"Please say."

"Miss Hemmer, I believe in your character, but I don't have much trust in other people, especially your teacher."

Leon directly pointed the finger at Parves. He was not worried that Hemo would think he was inciting the emotions of teachers and students. "After all... he was the one who proposed the joint consultation plan."

"So, I hope you, Miss Hemmer, can help me by keeping an eye on other people's movements to prevent them from thinking about Rosemary."

Although Li Ang will always keep an eye on the movement here, he thinks it is better to add an extra layer of insurance.
