Arknights, the Angel of Justice is waiting for level 16

"Mr. Ji Luo, do you want to eat now?"

A soft female voice suddenly came from outside the glass wall. Ji Luo sat up from the bed and realized that someone came to see him.

She was a Zarak girl with blonde hair and golden eyes. She had a long low ponytail and wide rat ears on top of her head. She looked very cute.

Compared to those researchers who were in a hurry before, this gentle and lovely girl was obviously more likable.

Of course, what made Ji Luo happiest was that the tray in her hand was filled with appetizing food.

"Who are you, and are you not afraid of Ferdinand?"

Ji Luo had already recognized the identity of the person who came, but he still pretended to know nothing, got out of bed and walked in front of her.

"My name is Dorothy... Dorothy Franks, and I'm the director of the Rhine Life Source Stone Technology Application Department. I can be considered on the same level as Director Ferdinand."

Dorothy had a gentle smile on her face. She walked to the side, swiped her ID card, and then placed the tray in her hand at the special transportation port.

"Although it may sound cruel for me to say this, you are such a precious experimental subject that you must be taken good care of. You cannot let it lack nutrition."

"Oh~ That's a realistic reason."

Ji Luo pulled over the stool next to him, put the tray on it, and sat on the ground. He ate and chatted with Dorothy.

"If you are interested in me, why not bring me to your lab? I'm being studied anyway, and it's better to be studied by a beautiful girl."

"This...thank you for the compliment, but Director Ferdinand's status and knowledge are far beyond my reach. He values ​​you so much, I can't ask for it."

Dorothy always spoke in a soft tone, and she spoke very slowly, as if to give Ji Luo more time to eat.

"So, if he doesn't value me, you'll snatch me away?"

"You can say that."

"Um...what are you interested in me?"

"Your blood."

Dorothy was different from Ferdinand. She was very concerned about Jilo's characteristics, so she chose a time when no one would disturb her and came over to ask him tentatively.

"I... only got a tiny bit of your blood, but the test results surprised me. You have great potential."

"What potential? The potential to be studied?"

"No, to be precise, there is a kind of energy in your blood."

"Really? How come I didn't know that?"

Ji Luo was not surprised by Dorothy's doubts. Although he had sealed all his powers, the special nature of the Star Spirit's body could always detect abnormalities.

"You...are you really an Agor?"

"Yes, a genuine deep-sea hunter."

"No, I think you're lying."

"Huh? Are you paranoid?"

Ji Luo had a puzzled expression on his face. Dorothy frowned when she failed to get the information she wanted.

"Ji Luo, your blood is different from everyone else's. No, it's hard to believe that you are a human being."

"Ha... stop talking nonsense. I know that I am special."

Ji Luo then picked up a burger, smeared ketchup on it, and took a big bite happily.

"Director Dorothy, what do you want to know?"

"Does your blood have any negative effects on ordinary people?"

Dorothy finally stopped hiding her feelings and asked the question that had been on her mind, but Jilo did not answer her immediately. Instead, he ate the burger bite by bite.

"For people like you, the answers you can get easily are not worthy of trust. So...how about we make an equal exchange?"

"Okay, that's my problem."

"Don't worry, let's talk slowly~"

Ji Luo didn't intend to throw out all his cards right away. He was very curious about why Dorothy appeared here, and more importantly, what use she was.

"Dorothy, I was in a coma for a few days."

"About... eight days. In order to completely anesthetize you, they used five times the standard of medicine used for elephants."

"That bastard Ferdinand, isn't he afraid of poisoning me to death?"

"No, we can all be sure that you will not die."

Dorothy took out a tablet, tapped it twice, and placed the screen in front of Ji Luo.

"This is your physical data. I don't know if you can understand it, but I can be sure that no poison or drug can kill you. It is even difficult to cause any impact on you.

"Why? Is there an explanation?"

"My guess is that your body has a special circulation pattern."

Dorothy really wanted to study Guilo carefully, but compared to Ferdinand, her life in the Rhine was too weak.

"I have answered so many questions, that's enough for us to exchange."

"That's enough. I know what you're curious about. My blood... can indeed strengthen ordinary people."

Ji Luo remembered very clearly that Dorothy had always hoped to eliminate the gap between people, not in terms of economy, but in terms of fighting strength.

This is undoubtedly ridiculous and stupid in the eyes of ordinary people. What is the point of helping the weak and the infected who are despised and excluded? It's so stupid.

However, Ji Luo would not laugh at her, because although these thoughts were a kind of saintly, they were already a precious empathy.

——This person can be fought for. She is not infected, but she has compassion for the world. Rhine Life and she are on a different path.

"But, unfortunately, I am an infected person. My blood can also infect ordinary people with mineral disease."

"..."

Dorothy was stunned by Ji Luo's straightforward and simple truth. She thought of dozens of possibilities, but this one was the only one she didn't think of.

"The same mineral disease? Incurable?"

"Of course, otherwise why would I come to Muirseth and be tricked by her?"

In order to eliminate Muirseth's suspicion, Jilo scolded her here. Dorothy listened to Jilo's dirty words with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

“Ji Luo, judging from your cursing, have you been in Longmen for a long time?”

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Ji Luo pretended to be very impatient, but Dorothy did not miss the loophole in his identity and went straight to the point.

"You have been staying in Longmen, why did you come to Columbia? The infected people are in Longmen, which is much better than in Tremont."

"To make money, I became a mercenary protecting cargo."

Jilo's excuse was quite lame, but Dorothy didn't ask any more questions. She nodded and was about to turn around and leave, but Jilo stopped her.

"Dorothy, what is Ferdinand doing?"

"He is performing implant surgery on a Flint test subject."

"Implant what?"

"The remains of the evil star."

Dorothy turned her head and looked at Ji Luo for a moment, then walked out without looking back.

"What a sensitive rat."

Ji Luo didn't know what Dorothy had discovered, but he was sure that Dorothy had no intention of revealing it. She was observing and waiting.

"So...Rhine Life's actions finally made Dorothy realize that research can't save the world?"

Ji Luo had some vague ideas. He wiped his mouth with paper, lay down on the bed again, closed his eyes and began to sleep.

Haha~ Anyway, no matter what, Ji Luo's plan was already half successful from the moment he was used as a test subject by Ferdinand.

Destroying the Rhine Life headquarters would only result in the deaths of some people and the loss of some real estate, which would not be of much significance.

——What can really kill Rhine’s life must be the anger of the masses and the government’s compromise.

Chapter 163: Rosemary is a brave child

Ji Luo, who became the material of Rhine's life experiment, did not suffer the torture and pain as imagined. After more than a week of anesthesia and sleep, his life became like raising pigs.

Ji Luo met Ferdinand on the first day after waking up. He felt great when he scolded him, but he made himself so annoying that no one paid any attention to him...

I woke up to eat, and after eating there was nothing to do but to continue sleeping. When it was time for dinner, Dorothy appeared, chatted with me for a while, and then left.

"Ah... so boring."

Ji Luo lay in bed, thinking about his daily routine over the past three days, wondering if he would gain fifty pounds in a month if he continued like this.

It would be fine if Ferdinand couldn't meet anyone, but why didn't even a researcher come? He is a Protoss after all, this is too disrespectful to aliens.

"Ji Luo, it's time to eat~"

Dorothy was punctually outside the glass wall. She swiped her ID card and delivered twice as much food into the observation room.

"It's twelve o'clock so soon?"

Ji Luo jumped up from the bed. As usual, he sat on the floor and put the food on the chair to eat.

"Dorothy, are you really raising pigs? There is more and more food."

"You always eat everything, I thought you weren't full."

Dorothy's voice was always soft and her eyes were always a little dazed, giving people the illusion that she was dull.

“I don’t want to waste food.”

Jilo and Dorothy had developed a tacit understanding that she would usually chat with him until the end of the meal, but never for more than half an hour.

"You are a director, why are you doing odd jobs now?"

"Really? Eating is related to the physical condition of the experimental subject, and chatting can help us understand the psychological state of the experimental subject. It's not just doing odd jobs."

Dorothy's concern for Ji Luo has exceeded her normal research attitude. She has stopped all previous research and put all her energy on Ji Luo.

Ferdinand did not comment on this, he just did not allow Dorothy to conduct experiments on Jiluo without authorization, so as not to interfere with his future transplantation of the "remains of the evil star".

Apart from that, Ferdinand didn't care that Dorothy was looking through Guilo's test reports or that she was secretly increasing the food ration.

"Ji Luo, we know each other now, how about letting me draw some blood from you?"

"Huh? Ferdinand almost killed me by drawing blood, why don't you just ask for some?"

"He's very busy right now, and if I bother him with this kind of thing, I'll be hated."

"His experiment was unsuccessful?"

Ji Luo paused with his chopsticks in his hand, feeling a little worried about Rosemary's condition. The little girl with erect ears had a very good mental strength, but her body was too fragile to withstand the erosion of the remains of the evil star.

“Why, are you interested in that cute little Philin?

"I'm just asking, you can tell if you want."

Ji Luo picked up a piece of beef and started chewing. It must be said that the food at Rhine Life was really good and they did not treat them, the experimental materials, badly.

"Ha... Experiment G100 is in very poor condition. The corrosion rate is more serious than expected."

Dorothy noticed that Ji Luo cared about the little girl named Filin, but she did not use it as a threat. Instead, she told Ji Luo everything she knew.

"Director Ferdinand's transplant surgery went well, but the power of the remains of the star of misfortune exceeded expectations. If it weren't for your blood, experimental subject G100 would have died."

"Heh~ No wonder you wanted to fatten me up, it turns out you wanted to draw more blood."

Ji Luo felt relieved when he heard that Rosemary was fine. He ate faster and quickly finished all the food.

"Dorothy, considering that you deliver meals every day, how can you draw blood?"

"There is a special machine over there~"

Dorothy smiled gently as she entered the password and watched as the wall on one side of the observation room opened, revealing an automatic blood-drawing device.

Ji Luo didn't mind bleeding a little. The key was whether Dorothy was worthy of it. At least now it seemed that she still had humanity.

"Ji Luo, do you have any way to save that child?"
