Lu Yuan was shocked. He quickly glanced at Lu Jin and asked in confusion, "… Is it really that powerful?"
Lu Jin scoffed. "Do you know what the carrier of gene therapy is?"
Lu Yuan: "…"
"It's a virus." Lu Jin said casually, as if he was talking about something unimportant. "… Because only viruses can invade the DNA level inside human cells."
"The treatment I designed for Reinitz is a special virus. This virus will target his genetic defects and block the treatment, but at the same time, some of the DNA fragments carried by this virus will lurk in his genes. "
Lu Yuan understood and was even more surprised. "… Isn't this the principle of a virus weapon?"
"Do you remember how the large-scale special respiratory infection came about a few years ago?" Lu Jin sneered. "It was a virus weapon. It targeted certain DNA fragments that were unique to the Chinese genes."
"So that time, the disease was most lethal to the Chinese. Although other races were infected, it wasn't as fatal as it was in China. "
When the infectious disease broke out, Lu Yuan had only arrived here not long ago, and he still had lingering fears about that experience.
"Viruses are like water, and the human body is the boat. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. "Lu Jin continued to boast shamelessly.
Lu Yuan's eyebrows twitched. "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Is that how it's used?"
"That's not important. Anyway, it's good that you understand what I mean." Lu Jin waved his hand and looked at his experiment records. The corners of his lips curled up. "There's a price to pay for everything. He provoked me recklessly and even got my hair, so don't blame me for keeping a backup plan. "
Lu Yuan didn't know much about this, but seeing that Lu Jin was confident, he didn't say anything else. He just said, "It's good that you're confident. Moreover, your idea is correct. Reinitz's stance is unclear, so we have to be on guard. "
Lu Jin thought of Reinitz's skills and decisiveness and sighed. He was no longer as exuberant as before. He muttered, "… That's why I wanted to die with them … Actually, I didn't have the chance to do anything to such a person."
However, with Huo Shaoheng, Lu Yuan, and Gu Nianzhi working together, Lu Jin had the possibility of achieving his goal without exposing himself.
However, Huo Shaoheng was also injured because of this.
Lu Jin was a little sad.
Lu Yuan patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't blame yourself too much. Shaoheng's injury looks serious, but it's not serious. For people in our line of work, it's nothing at all. "
Lu Jin nodded and said seriously, "He saved my life. I know that. I won't let him suffer any repercussions."
Lu Yuan: "…"
He suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "You didn't do anything to Shaoheng's genes, did you?"
Lu Jin glared at him unhappily and pointed at his nose. "Am I the kind of person who would repay kindness with enmity?! I even helped He Zhichu get rid of those dangerous genes, so why would I do anything to Huo Shaoheng? — What was the reason? Where's the logic? In your heart, am I a Frankenstein without principles or boundaries?! "
Lu Yuan glanced at him indifferently. "… You helped He Zhichu get rid of the hidden danger gene? What does that mean? Does the He family know? "
Lu Jin didn't expect Lu Yuan to only notice this after he said a long list of things. He couldn't help shrinking his neck and trying to change the topic. "Um, Nianzhi is back, right? I'll go see my girl. I haven't seen her for a few hours. I miss her … "
"Don't try to change the topic." Lu Yuan grabbed Lu Jin's collar, his expression still indifferent. "Make yourself clear!"
Lu Jin pursed his lips tightly. He was determined to be a clam.
He would never say anything about this even if he was beaten to death.
Because he did this not because he was noble, but purely for Qin Suwen.
He didn't want Qin Suwen's son to become a puppet and hostage in someone else's hands one day.
Lu Yuan's gaze gradually became serious, but under his sharp gaze, Lu Jin actually resisted it, which was rare for him.
Lu Yuan looked at him for a while and suddenly laughed. "No wonder you helped Qin Yaoguang design the gene therapy and personally operated on He Zhichu … You did it for Qin Suwen, didn't you?"
Although Lu Yuan didn't see it with his own eyes, he knew that there were only two people in the operating room at that time.
On the surface, Qin Yaoguang was the main surgeon and had an assistant.
In fact, the assistant was Lu Jin, or Gu Xiangwen.
After the operating room door closed, the positions of the two of them were switched.
Qin Yaoguang became the assistant, and Lu Jin was the main surgeon.
Lu Jin's body trembled, and he subconsciously retorted, "I'm not! I'm not! Don't talk nonsense! "
"That's right." Lu Yuan let go of his collar and patted him on the shoulder. "Actually, there's no one you can't see. After all, you two have children …"
With that, Lu Yuan quickly left Lu Jin's laboratory, afraid that Lu Jin would fly into a rage and jump up to beat him up.
However, Lu Jin didn't chase after him. Instead, he looked around guiltily, then said to the camera in the laboratory, "Delete that part just now! Delete it! Permanently delete it! "
"Yes, sir." The artificial intelligence on the camera let out a cold metallic female voice and began to delete the surveillance footage.
..
Reinitz returned to his hotel in New York. Just as he was about to take a shower, he received a call. "Boss, Mr. Li Dexi is here. He wants to see you."
Reinitz's brows furrowed. After a moment of silence, he said, "Okay, where is he?"
"The Hudson River." The person on the other end sent the exact coordinates to Reinitz's phone.
The Hudson River was a large river that ran through New York State, and its lower reaches were just at the border between New York City and New Jersey.
The river was clear, and weeping willows were planted along the river in this part of New York City. The scenery was even more beautiful.
Reinitz didn't plan to take a shower, so he began his own preparations.
When it was time, he took a taxi to the place where the two of them had made an appointment to meet.
When Reinitz arrived at his destination, he found that Li Dexi was already there.
He was dressed casually and wore a straw hat. He was sitting on an iron chair by the river with a fishing rod in his hand, fishing.
The slender and graceful weeping willows by the river blocked most of the sunlight, and the temperature was not hot. From time to time, the wind blew from the river with water vapor, and the air carried the fragrance of grass and leaves.
Li Dexi was a typical Germanic. He wasn't very tall or handsome, but he had a square jaw and sharp eyes. When he looked at people, there was a strong sense of oppression. It was obvious that he had been in a high position for a long time and was used to giving orders.
However, he was still relatively gentle with Reinitz. After all, he had watched him grow up, and he was also the successor that he had carefully trained.
Li Dexi had never married in his life and had no children, but he had "handled" many children in the past.
When he looked up and saw a tall figure standing next to him, Li Dexi smiled. "Reinitz, my child, you're here. Sit."
He pointed to the seat next to the iron chair.
Reinitz sat down next to him and looked at the light turquoise water in front of him. He asked with a smile, "Sir, are you here on business in New York?"
"I'm here on vacation," Li Dexi said kindly. Li Dexi said kindly, "I heard that you completed the task for Mr. Lorler very well, so I came to see you."
Reinitz shrugged. He couldn't hear any causal relationship between the two.
However, since Li Dexi said so, he would listen to him and not expose him.
It could be said that a few days ago, Reinitz still had a fatherly respect for Li Dexi, but since he learned the truth about his background, this respect had completely disappeared.
Li Dexi glanced at him and felt that his attitude was a little strange, but he looked extremely respectful on the surface, so he couldn't see anything strange at all.
Li Dexi was also a suspicious person, so he couldn't help but ask tentatively, "… According to the information we received, Gu Nianzhi's DNA was the closest to perfect gene. Why did it become Wen Shouyi now? I heard that you helped Mr. Lorler steal it from the KGB? "
Reinitz's expression became cold. "Mr. Li Dexi, you never told me where your source of information came from. Do you think I should believe an unknown source like you, or should I believe our old enemy, the KGB? "
Li Dexi hesitated.
Reinitz took the opportunity to say, "There was once a great man from the East who said something like this: 'We must oppose what the enemy insists on.' I have the same opinion. Whatever the enemy values, we have to snatch it because it must be something special. "
Li Dexi laughed. "… Why do I only remember that the great man from the East said the first sentence? Did he say the second sentence?"
Reinitz laughed. "I was the one who triggered the second sentence, but the basic meaning is the same."
Li Dexi closed his eyes noncommittally and said lightly, "But the people around you said that you often disappeared alone these past two days. What did you do?"
The corners of Reinitz's eyes twitched. "You had someone follow me?"
He knew that someone was following him, but he had already shaken them off several times.
"I am doing this for your own good." Li Dexi opened his eyes and said earnestly, "You are of high status, and what you are doing is very dangerous. If I don't let anyone watch you, what if something happens to you? Don't be ungrateful. "
"I wouldn't dare." Reinitz smiled and narrowed his blue eyes. The Hudson River reflected in his eyes was sparkling and rippling. "I know you are doing this for my own good."
He stood up as he spoke. "If there is nothing else, I will go back first. I haven't had a good rest these past few days, so I am tired. "
"Oh? You can be tired too? " Li Dexi frowned. "Didn't you track the enemy for days and nights without rest before? I've never seen you say you are tired before. "
"Just because I didn't say it before doesn't mean I am not tired." Reinitz looked down at Li Dexi and said word by word, "Maybe I am old, sick, and my body's functions have deteriorated."
If Li Dexi looked up, he would see that Reinitz's gaze was very complicated. There was an eagerness to discover the truth, and there was also a lament for the destruction of years of familial love. There was also a determination and ruthlessness that showed that he refused to give in and accept his fate in his own hands.
Unfortunately, Li Dexi had a guilty conscience and didn't dare to look up at Reinitz.
He just nodded and looked at the fishing line hanging from his fishing rod on the river. "If you are tired, take a break, take a shower, and sleep. I will let you know if there is a mission. "
A mocking smile appeared at the corner of Reinitz's mouth. He didn't say anything else and turned to leave.
The hem of his long trench coat drew an arc in the wind, covering his pair of long legs under the trench coat. He quickly left the Hudson River.
Li Dexi sat by the river for a long time and caught a few fish during this time, but he released them after looking at them.
For him, fishing was a leisure activity that allowed him to think and rest.
When it was getting dark, Li Dexi finally put away his fishing rod and left the Hudson River to return to his residence.
He lived at the Westin Hotel in Midtown Manhattan.
This place was close to the United Nations Building, so it was usually busy with all kinds of people of all colors.
When he got out of the taxi, it was already completely dark. It was a bit cloudy at night, and the moon in the sky was like a white jade pendant covered in a veil. It made people feel like they could reach out and pick it up, so they yearned for it infinitely, but it was actually out of reach.
Li Dexi didn't know how he suddenly looked up at the moon on the sidewalk.
He had never been a sentimental person, but at this time, perhaps it was because he had a feeling, or perhaps it was because of his extraordinary intuition, that he suddenly had an ominous premonition about his fate.
At that moment, a large truck suddenly rushed over from the road and onto the sidewalk!
The crowd screamed and exclaimed, and everyone hurriedly fled in all directions to avoid the large truck that was driving crookedly.
By the time Li Dexi reacted, his entire body was already flying through the air.
The accident happened too quickly. The moment before he closed his eyes and fainted, he was still looking at the moon above his head. He vaguely thought that he was indeed closer to the moon …
Reinitz was running in the crowd not far away. He looked back at the scene, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
The large truck stopped, and a driver in a Middle Eastern robe got out of the car. He held a long knife in his hand and slashed at anyone he saw, so everyone ran even faster.
Li Dexi hadn't been killed yet, but he was trampled to death by the fleeing crowd …
…
The next morning, Gu Nianzhi had just taken a shower, and her hair was still wet. She sat at the dining table and ate breakfast.
Lu Yuan had made her a Western-style egg pancake with a spoonful of maple syrup that was as thick as chocolate.
There was a glass of warm milk and a small bowl of oatmeal doughnuts at hand.
Huo Shaoheng sat next to her, but in front of him was the Huaxia Empire's breakfast.
There were four Bai Xuanxuan's big meat buns on a plate. They were filled with beef. She didn't know what ingredients were used, but she could only smell the unique fragrance of beef. It wasn't greasy at all, and it was also tender when it was fully cooked in the buns.
There was a bowl of yellow millet and corn porridge. It had been cooked for a long time, and the millet and corn were almost melted.
There was also a bowl of beef noodle soup and a few pot stickers that had just come out of the pot.
The pot stickers were filled with Spanish black pork, seasoned with eggs, vermicelli, and mushrooms. Not only did it taste good, but it also tasted natural.
Gu Nianzhi was about to drool when she saw it.
However, these things were for Huo Shaoheng to nourish his body. Gu Nianzhi only looked at them and wouldn't eat them.
Huo Shaoheng looked at her with a somewhat amused expression and pushed the plate of pot stickers to her. "Eat it. I can't eat that much."
Gu Nianzhi beamed with joy. "Then I'll do you a favor. We can't waste food."
The two of them ate happily. The sun shone through the window covered with white gauze and shone on Gu Nianzhi's face. Her smile seemed to have light, making it impossible for people to look away.
Lu Yuan walked into the dining room and turned a blind eye to this scene. He quietly picked up the remote control and turned on the curved wall-mounted TV on the wall.
Last night's news feed was playing on the TV.
"… Last night, there was a terrorist incident where a truck hit a crowd on the sidewalk in front of the Westin Hotel.
"Fifteen people were injured in the incident. Two were seriously injured, and one was killed.
"The person who died was found to be Mr. Li Dexi, a senior employee of the German federal government."
Li Dexi's work photo was displayed on the TV.
Lu Yuan made a soft sound of surprise and said, "This person is Reinitz's direct superior."
Gu Nianzhi put down the pot stickers and looked at them attentively for a while. She whispered, "… What a coincidence? He was the only one who died? "
"What's so strange about those who commit unrighteousness bring about their own destruction?" Lu Yuan and Huo Shaoheng said in unison.
