C70 Laboratory

The matter at the back of the mountain was not a dream. The Scarlet Kylin did go on a date with Jiao Jiao, and I saw it as well.

I even remembered, holding my head and feeling a splitting headache.

At the back of the mountain, the Scarlet Kylin extended its snake-like tongue to control me. Then, everything went dark before my eyes, and I didn't know what had happened.

If it was true, they must have done something.

"Master Ge, am I, am I alive or dead?"

I'm scared, too.

"Don't move, this thread should have been sewn for you by that woman. What a brilliant technique, and she even used an illusion to hide it. What do they want to do? Damn it, this woman."

Master Ge stopped my arm, pulling the thread with one hand and pressing on my chest with the other. He actually forcibly pulled the thread out from the wound.

"Rip."

I grit my teeth. It still hurts.

The wound on my chest had already formed a scab, which was faster than I had expected. Even though the string was forcefully torn, it didn't have much of an impact.

"They tried to steal your heart, but they failed."

Master Ge burnt the string with his lighter and turned it into ashes.

Although Master Ge's tone was flat, but I couldn't calm down no matter how hard I tried.

"Great sir, what exactly is going on? Do you know something?"

I clutched at the wound on my chest, still shaken. I could still feel my heartbeat, which meant that my heart had yet to be dug out.

The pain was so real that he nearly lost his heart.

A man can't live without a heart, can he? I'm afraid not.

"Phew, this old man has been in this university for too long. I remember that year, haha, too long, right? There was a student who died in class for no reason, I thought it was a sudden death, but after dissecting him, I found that there was no heart."

Master Ge gave me an indifferent look.

"What?"

This kind of thing happened at that time, but the Snake Demon had just entered the academy, so it was impossible for her to have done it.

He could still go to class without his heart. What was going on?

Is there anything else in this university I don't know?

Looking at the moon in the night sky, I had an indescribable feeling that this university was more mysterious than I had ever imagined.

"Don't ask, if you know too much, your life will be gone. Relax in class. Oh right, don't you want to go to the laboratory? Go, but don't go into Professor Yang's storage room, do you understand?"

Master Ge looked at me again and said.

"Professor Yang, you have a problem?"

Professor Yang was the old man in his seventies who worked in the laboratory all year round. It was said that he was an extremely workaholic and wouldn't go home even on New Year's Eve.

Don't want me to go into the storage room?

Speaking of which, that laboratory is also eerily eerie. I've only been there once before and was in charge of some textual work in the outermost hall.

And it was during the day, and he had never been to the lab at night.

"It's hard to say. Just don't ask, but be careful of your counselors, don't get too close to them."

Grandpa Ge gave me one last instruction and then carried the broom back to the dormitory on the first floor to watch TV.

Counselor, Brother Li?

Did he have a problem too?

Not really.

With all kinds of questions in my mind, I didn't know what to do, so I could only take things one step at a time.

I definitely have to go to this laboratory. Being Professor Yang's assistant is considered a social practice, and can give me a lot of points.

Under the dim moonlight, time passed.

I finally reached the laboratory's main hall before the appointed time. There were already a few people sitting in the main hall waiting for me. It seems that I wasn't the only one here tonight.

Under the dim light, a 14-inch black and white TV was repeatedly broadcasting a medical anatomy documentary. Bloody scenes appeared one after another.

Two men and a woman were already sitting in the hall. I didn't know any of them.

There were too many students in the university. Sometimes, when they met people from the same academy, they would rarely, so it was normal for them to not know each other.

"Oh, another brother. My name is Lin Zhuang. Hehe, I'm from the Construction Academy."

Lin Zhuang wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses. He looked like a refined and gentle young man who was rather thin and frail.

I nodded back.

However, the guy on the other side didn't have such a good face. He didn't even look at me. His hair that reached his ears had a lot of personality. There were black earrings in his ears.

"Yuntong."

The girl in the distance laughed. She had pretty good looks with short hair, fair skin and a tall figure.

She showed her white teeth as she spoke, and I gave her my name without saying much. Then she fiddled with her fingernails again.

His fingernails brushed a few times, and all ten fingers were painted black.

Yuntong even shook her head towards me, revealing a calm smile. Combined with her black fingernails, it made her look even more strange.

I didn't say much, but my heart was heavy.

Besides, Master Ge repeatedly told me not to enter the storage room in the laboratory building.

The lighting was dim. There was a cold-looking long-haired youth, a smiling girl in black armor, and a straight-A student.

Including me, this is tonight's lineup.

"Looks like everyone's here. I'm Yang Debang, you can just call me Professor Yang. I don't have much work for you to do tonight, so I'll just clean up and sort the documents. You can't do the disciplinary work either."

At this moment, a chuckling voice could be heard.

Professor Yang, wearing a white lab coat without glasses, walked over with a smile. He wasn't tall, only about 1.6 meters, but his walking speed was quite fast.

Everyone hurriedly stood up to greet him. Even the cold-looking young man was the same. This sort of respect was something that they had to give.

Then, he introduced himself. Only now did I know that the callous youth was called Liu Hao Ran.

The laboratory was very remote, and Professor Yang was working all night, so he probably wouldn't have to go back to his dorm tonight.

This laboratory had a total of two floors. On the first floor, there were all sorts of experimental equipment. The tables and chairs in the hall were rather simple and crude.

As for the second floor, it was even more chaotic. The main experiment site was on the second floor, and there were already set up precise instruments and some experimental materials.

"Alright, now follow me to the second floor, and we might spend the night there. If you're tired, you can lie down on the sofa on the first floor for a while, then take turns working."

Professor Yang led us towards the staircase, pointing as we passed by the sofa.

That was still an old-fashioned spring sofa. It was old and worn out and hadn't been changed for who knows how long. There was always talk of having no victories.

"Oh, by the way, when you rest on the sofa on the first floor, don't open the door. Lock it properly."

Finally, Professor Yang suddenly turned around and added this sentence, his expression was very solemn.

As I reached the second floor, I couldn't help but turn my head to look at the screen of the 14-inch black-and-white TV.

This is the whole process of dissecting a living person's heart...
