Li Chengtian walked to the petri dish and slowly stretched out his hand, and the monster also stretched out his hand again.
At the moment when the deformed hand and Li Chengtian's hand were about to slowly stick to the inner wall.
"...It's not the right time yet. Let's stop here."
An old man's voice came from the side.
Li Chengtian retracted his hand and turned to look at the old man.
"I am the chairman of the Scientific Council of the World United Special Administration Bureau. Like you, my last name is Li. My name is Li Zhiqiu."
The old man stretched out his hand toward Li Chengtian.
Li Chengtian slowly looked at the old man's outstretched hand, and then protected the girl behind him.
"I don't intend to pursue this matter." The old man saw Li Chengtian's vigilance, and he gently put his hands behind his back.
"This experiment is centered around you. Sooner or later, you will come into contact with the core area."
"What exactly do you want to do with the rift, and what is this thing?"
At this moment, Li Muhan didn't pay much attention to the conversation between Li Chengtian and the old man. He stood in front of the petri dish and looked at the monster from a distance. He found that the monster's eyes were fixed on Li Chengtian.
"Li Chengtian, I used to be a member of the Huaxia Special Management Bureau, but later I found that if we humans are limited to one place, even if it is the vast Huaxia, we will not be able to broaden our horizons."
The old man put his hands behind his back and slowly walked to the petri dish.
Li Chengtian always kept the girl behind him and looked at the old man vigilantly.
"Five years ago, I left the Chinese Special Management Bureau and traveled around the world. I witnessed the rise of special management bureaus in various countries around the world and learned a lot of knowledge, but that could not satisfy me, nor could it satisfy the continuous progress of mankind. Until that day, while exploring the bottomless underground rift, I saw it... I saw the sapling full of infinite possibilities."
The old man raised his eyes and looked at the monster in the petri dish.
"I know it has been waiting. It is calling me, hoping that the people of this world can hear its voice. That is the soul of this world, a signal sent by this world to humans, and also a warning."
"...Is its warning due to the rift?"
Li Chengtian asked.
"Yes." The old man nodded.
"Then what's going on with this thing? Why is there a crack here?" Li Chengtian's tone gradually became unfriendly.
"China has fought against the creatures in the rift many times. Only China can do this, but we didn't even realize that... the things that exist within the rift are not just destroyed. They can learn, evolve, and integrate. And I... just brought them to this world." The old man looked at the monster with a loving look in his eyes.
"Using my wife's body as a petri dish and my children... as a vehicle."
Hearing the old man's words, the girl covered her mouth, her eyes full of fear and surprise.
"...That, that's your...child, the other side of the umbilical cord..."
The old man closed his eyes silently and nodded.
"Yes, I sent my pregnant wife to the other side of the rift and let those monsters learn to imitate everything about humans. Then... when my child was born, it possessed the power of the rift and the physique of humans. It is the most perfect bridge between the two worlds."
"You lunatic!!" The girl yelled at the old man out of control.
"That, that's your child! Your wife! That's not your experimental prop! What have you done?!"
The old man ignored the girl and just looked at Li Chengtian.
"You are the most perfect human being in the world. I need your help to raise this child."
"So, Chang Yue knows all these things, right?"
"No, very few people know about this matter, and it is also a top-secret file. The only people who know about it in the Huaxia Special Management Bureau are Director General Lu Shan and Deputy Director Shuo Bai, so Chengtian...are you willing to help me?"
Li Chengtian clenched his fists and stared at the old man in front of him.
"You never gave me any chance to choose, so this time, tell me what punishment I will receive if I refuse."
The old man laughed dryly twice and patted Li Chengtian's shoulder gently.
"You have never been punished, Chengtian. You are a star of misfortune. You only bring disaster to those around you. And now..."
His eyes slowly turned to the girl behind Li Chengtian.
"Make your choice."
The girl couldn't help but feel a chill on her spine as the old man stared at her. Li Chengtian's eyes rarely showed anger.
"I will assist you."
"That's right. I will give you more freedom in the future. As for this..." He looked at the work badge on the girl's chest again: "Ms. Lu Xue, you don't have to get involved in other projects in the future. From today on, you will be a researcher in the No. 10 laboratory, specializing in experiments related to Li Chengtian."
"Are you two satisfied with this arrangement?"
Seeing that neither of them spoke, the old man did not stay any longer.
"If you've seen enough, leave now, both of you. No one will be held accountable for what happened today."
The old man turned and left, leaving only Lu Xue, Li Chengtian, and Li Muhan.
"...I'm sorry, I got you into trouble."
Lu Xue gently pulled Li Chengtian's sleeve.
The man shook his head. "It's just a matter of time. They will find ways to get me involved in this experiment."
"...But with your strength, you can escape."
Yes, I can run away, but what will my running away bring to you? What will it bring to those I love?
I've already escaped once.
At least this time......
Li Chengtian turned around and gently hugged the girl, as if to make up for what he had failed to do on that stormy night.
"...I won't leave this time."
Chapter 699 Good night, little star
The days of Tartarus continue.
One year passed quickly.
The relationship between Lu Xue and Li Chengtian gradually warmed up, and after experiencing that incident, the two gradually revealed their feelings to each other.
Although Lu Xue could see that sometimes when Li Chengtian looked at her, there seemed to be another shadow in his eyes, she didn't mind.
After all, they have no way to leave this prison now.
Being able to have each other is the greatest happiness.
"......Well."
Lu Xue looked at the sumptuous meal in front of her and suddenly found it difficult to swallow.
Since that incident, her and Li Chengtian's food and other conditions have been greatly improved.
The old man named Li Zhiqiu even provided them with a special room and allowed them to live together.
The attitude is already very clear. As long as Li Chengtian cooperates, Li Zhiqiu will try his best to give him and Lu Xue the greatest convenience in Tartarus.
"What's wrong? Isn't this your favorite food?"
Li Chengtian looked at Lu Xue and asked.
Lu Xue frowned and looked at the table full of food. The aroma rushed into her nostrils. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore. She stood up and rushed into the bathroom, and started to dry heave in front of the sink.
Li Chengtian immediately chased after her, patted her on the back and asked, "Are you sick? I'll take you to the medical room."
"No, not sick..."
Lu Xue gently waved her hand, then turned around and said to Li Chengtian with an unpleasant expression: "You... don't you really understand? Or do you not want to take responsibility?"
"What do you mean?" Li Chengtian frowned.
"You idiot..." Lu Xue gave Li Chengtian a cold look, then stood up with the help of the sink.
She turned around, leaned against the sink facing Li Chengtian, then raised her hand and gently stroked Li Chengtian's face, her eyes full of tenderness.
"I say... do you want a daughter or a son?"
......
From the day Li Chengtian knew he was going to be a father, his mood changed and he even started to greet people around him.
He even went to Li Zhiqiu's office to ask him what name to give his child.
Li Zhiqiu was also very happy. He even prepared a crib for them and asked several medical staff to give Lu Xue a physical examination every day to ensure that the baby in her body would be born safely.
"Chengtian."
Lu Xue was lying on the bed, her belly was getting bigger day by day.
"What's wrong?" Li Chengtian sat on the edge of the bed, holding the girl's hand tightly.
"Will our children...be like us, never able to leave here?"
Li Chengtian didn't say anything, he just held Lu Xue's hand.
Because he himself has no answer to this question, what is the future, he has no future.
So.......
If I could get Lu Xue and the child away from here...
"If the experiment goes well, I have no reason to refuse your request, Chengtian."
Li Zhiqiu still looked kind.
He personally poured tea for Li Chengtian and asked him to sit on the sofa.
"Right now, the child and your genes are somewhat incompatible, so our research is still at a standstill, but we have found a solution. In just three months, the experiment will have a breakthrough. I promise you that I will let your wife and child leave here by then."
Li Chengtian nodded.
Then Li Zhiqiu slowly handed him a cigarette and said, "I know this is actually wrong, but after examination, we have confirmed that your wife is pregnant with a girl. Congratulations, Chengtian."
Girls.
Li Chengtian has already begun to imagine how beautiful the child will be in the future.
She grew up in laughter like a normal child, without worries or sorrows. Even though she might never see her father again, she still had a mother.
There are so many people who love her.
Chang Yue and Lin Ze will definitely give the child a bright future.
"Can you help me pick a name for the baby, Doctor?"
Li Chengtian rarely smiled.
Li Zhiqiu nodded: "I have thought about it. Let's name your child Li Ling'an. May peace and tranquility always be with her."
"Doctor." Li Chengtian looked up at the professor and asked, "May I ask what your child's name is, or do you not have a name for him?"
This was the first time that Li Chengtian took the initiative to ask about the monster in the petri dish.
Li Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and lit a cigarette for himself.
"Yes... Of course, he is my pride, my most beloved child... His name is..."
"Li Muhan."
......
Lu Xue's due date fell on a rainy night.
Even in Tartarus, people were emotionally affected by the rainstorm.
Everyone was nervous, not only because of the weather, but also because today was a very important day.
The Tartarus experiment is about to enter a new phase, and success or failure depends on this.
"Chengtian......."
Lu Xue was lying on the hospital bed. She was already thin, and now she looked even weaker after becoming pregnant.
"Come back before the baby is born...ok?"
"Yes." Li Chengtian nodded heavily.
