"An Jing, can you take us in?" Zhou Wen cast his gaze at An Jing. At that moment, he couldn't care less.
Now, Zhou Wen was afraid that the military had already dissected the corpses. When that happened, everything would be over.
"Sure, but I have a condition," An Jing said after some thought.
"I agree to fight you. Take me in immediately," Zhou Wen immediately said.
"I didn't say I wanted to fight you. Take me in immediately," Zhou Wen immediately said.
"Then what do you want?" Zhou Wen frowned.
"I haven't thought about it yet. Just treat it as you owing me a condition. I'll tell you when I've thought about it." After An Jing said that, she didn't wait for Zhou Wen's urging as she walked straight to the door.
"Hello, please show me your identification." The two soldiers guarding the door clearly recognized An Jing, but after bowing, they kept her outside and didn't let her in.
An Jing seemed to know that this would happen, so she didn't have any special reaction. She took out an identification from her pocket before the soldiers let her in, allowing An Jing to lead Zhou Wen and Li Xuan into the encampment.
After An Jing asked where the corpses were placed, she walked over. She was clearly no stranger to the military encampment.
Zhou Wen was somewhat glad that An Jing was here. Otherwise, with the encampment being so huge, it wouldn't be easy for him and Li Xuan to find the corpses even if they could enter.
As Zhou Wen walked, he looked at his phone. He saw five flower buds bloom on the Dead Man Tree that shimmered with a red glow.
The flower buds also looked like they were carved from rubies. They were even more resplendent and emitted an evil aura. Through the ruby-like petals, one could vaguely see something inside that resembled a beating heart.
"How many dead students are there?" Zhou Wen asked.
"Five," Li Xuan thought for a moment before answering.
Zhou Wen was almost certain that the deaths of Wang Lu and company were related to the five flowers on the Dead Man Tree. However, Zhou Wen didn't know what the five flowers meant, nor did he know what to do. All he could do was wait until he saw the corpses of Wang Lu and company.
In the morgue, Deputy Governor Qin Wufu and a few Epic experts stationed at Sunset College were listening to the medical examiner's report.
"There are no obvious wounds or symptoms on the outside. There's nothing through X-ray either. Now, we can only dissect them and see the results," said Yan Zhen.
"No, we can't dissect them." An Epic expert immediately denied Yan Zhen's suggestion. His tone was very firm.
"No, we can't dissect them." An Epic expert immediately denied Yan Zhen and said with a firm tone.
"The Wang family's daughter died here for no reason. If we dissect her body, how are we going to explain it to the Wang family when they come?" the Epic warrior from before said.
"We can't dissect Wang Wang Lu's corpse. We can dissect the other four corpses first.
"That can't do. That." The Epic expert, Wen said.
"You can't dissect it." Qin Wufu denied Yan Zhen's words.
"I do," An said, Wen. Zhen. "I Wen."
"," I "I" Yan. Ren ". Wen," I "Wen," I "" I "m." I "I" I "I". "t." "Wen." Yan. "Zhen."
Yan Zhen laughed when he heard that. "Deputy Governor, if we don't dissect them now, we won't be able to find the reason for their current state. Then, what's the difference between them and the dead? Now, we only need to dissect the other four students to find the reason. Perhaps we can save Wang Lu. This is the best choice now, right? "
A few Epic officers also felt that this plan wasn't bad. If they could save Wang Lu, their troubles would be reduced greatly.
"Wang Lu has to be saved. The others have to be saved as well," Qin Wufu said as he stared at Yan Zhen.
"Please forgive me for being powerless," Yan Zhen said indifferently.
"All of you can leave. I'll have a few words with Dr. Yan alone." Qin Wufu waved his hand and got everyone to leave the morgue, leaving only him and Yan Zhen inside.
At that moment, Qin Wufu stared at Yan Zhen and said coldly, "Yan Zhen, I know you can save them. You want to dissect them because you want to know what kind of power made them like this."
"Deputy Governor, you think too highly of me. I'm only a doctor, not a god. I don't even know what kind of injuries they suffered, so how can I save them?" Yan Zhen nudged his glasses and said without a change in expression.
"Speak. What conditions do you want to save them?" Qin Wufu frowned.
Yan Zhen stared at the five corpses and licked his lips as he said indifferently, "There's no condition. Dissect four and save one."
"They are living people, not your experimental subjects." Qin Wufu's face revealed anger.
"If I save them, they are living people. If I don't save them, they will be dead people. Using dead people as experimental subjects isn't a big deal even in the peaceful era of the past, much less now." Yan Zhen's tone made it seem as though he was speaking of something that was only natural.
Qin Wufu's face was livid with anger. If he didn't know Yan Zhen and his past, he would probably have taken out his gun and killed the despicable fellow in front of him.
However, he couldn't do that now. The only person who could save these five students was Yan Zhen.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Qin Wufu said coldly, "Save these five students. I will apply to let you use the corpses of dead soldiers for experiments."
"No, I want these four experimental subjects." Yan Zhen decisively rejected Qin Wufu, as though there was no room for negotiation.
"Isn't using the corpses of dead soldiers for experiments what you always wanted? If you miss this opportunity, you definitely won't have a second chance. Is it worth it to give up just to dissect these four students? "Qin Wufu said as he stared at Yan Zhen.
"It's worth it. These five people are in a very strange state. Dissecting them might be of great help to my research. I want to see what kind of power is at work," Yan Zhen said.
"I definitely won't give you this chance," Qin Wufu said angrily.
"You have no choice. If I don't save them, Wang Lu will die as well. Deputy Governor Qin, choose for yourself whether you want Wang Lu to die with the four of them or let the four of them die and Wang Lu live." Yan Zhen looked at Qin Wufu with certainty, as though he was certain of Qin Wufu's victory.
Qin Wufu stared intently at Yan Zhen, wishing he could kill this bastard. However, he knew that it was useless even if he killed Yan Zhen. Yan Zhen definitely wouldn't give in until he achieved his goal. It was the same even if he killed him.
Furthermore, even Wang Lu couldn't be saved if he killed Yan Zhen.
Just as Qin Wufu was about to compromise, he suddenly heard the door to the morgue open. He couldn't help but be enraged as he shouted coldly, "Get out. Who allowed you in?"
