Qi Li'an couldn't describe his feelings, his mind was in a mess, and countless nerves were tangled together.

Only instinct showed him the way: run, run.

There was only this one thought in his mind, his body automatically turned around without conscious command, took a step, and ran towards the door stiffly and unstoppably.

He bumped straight into Fang Qizhu who was guarding the outside, without apologizing or showing any pain, he just kept going straight and rampaging in one direction.

"Are you okay?" Fang Qizhu's voice came from afar.

He couldn't hear it, all he knew was that he was going to leave here immediately.

The voice was there to stop him.

Run faster, you have to run faster, you can't be caught by this voice.

The warm and viscous liquid slowly flowed down from the forehead, moistening the lips, and the breath of rust spread in the mouth.

The voice got farther and farther away: "There is a wall! Don't hit the wall!"

He turned a deaf ear and continued to dash in the direction he believed.

The sound became smaller and smaller, and the sweet fishy smell in the nasal cavity became heavier and heavier.His upper and lower eyelids began to fight, his limbs were limp and weak, and his running speed gradually slowed down.

The voice was gone.

It should be safe.

Okay, take a break for now.

He closed his eyes and fell powerlessly to the ground.

***

"He's gone." Yan Zhijin said.

"Good job." Black Snake uttered a message, "I don't want to see him."

He spat out the letter very loudly, and it was obvious that he really disliked Qi Li'an.

There was a faint smile in Yan Zhijin's voice: "I won't see you soon."

He took a few sips of coffee casually and went to the closet to find out clothes.

"Are you really going to help them?" The black snake entangled his hand holding the clothes, like a pile of black cables, "Shouldn't this matter be resolved by themselves?"

Yan Zhijin's right arm was entangled several times by the snake, but he could still move freely.He calmly unfolded his coat, stretched one arm into the cuff, and shook slightly when he was about to put on the other arm.

The black snake fell to the ground, turned back into a human form, held down his hand, and said coldly, "Why?"

He asked: "What are they worthy of your nostalgia?"

The cold breath on his body penetrated through his fingertips and penetrated below Yan Zhijin's skin, making him shiver uncontrollably from the cold.

"Accordingly, I shouldn't interfere with them. This is the law of nature." Yan Zhijin gently pushed his fingertips away, and then held them back, using the temperature of his palm to melt the ice under his skin. "However, after thinking about it, I still think, I want to do this."

"For those human beings who don't know good from bad?"

"For—my family."

His palm retracted a bit, as if he couldn't stand the cold.

He lowered his eyelids: "I can guarantee that they will not be harmed, but what's the use? They won't want to live alone while others are dying. They try so hard to save others."

"You want to change your long-standing principles for them?" Yan Hui's scarlet snake eyes stared straight at him.

"Do you think I should do this?" Yan Zhijin suddenly met his gaze, and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, "Or, do you want me to do this?"

The red light in Yan Hui's eyes quieted down briefly, and he thought about it and asked, "I think?"

"You want me to be like before, don't you?" Yan Zhijin's eyes were serene, "You still like that god who is just and selfless, without sorrow or joy."

"I haven't." Before he finished speaking, Yan Hui hastily denied it.

Yan Zhijin's dark and thick eyelashes trembled slightly, like a butterfly drenched in heavy rain, flapping its wings with difficulty.He murmured softly like a babble: "I used to really feel that I should not interfere with any creatures. I will not be depressed because of their suffering, nor will I be happy because of their gifts. Their actions generate any emotion, so I've always followed my principles. But now—"

He bit the tip of his tongue and sucked the bloody taste into his mouth: "I can't do it."

He moved the corners of his mouth awkwardly and said, "Maybe it's because I've lived as a human for a long time, and the part that belongs to me is still stubbornly staying in my body."

He hugged his left arm with his right hand, his nails made obvious marks on the coat, and his lips were pale: "I can't ignore it now. I really want to be the same as before and not disturb them, but I will keep thinking about those people before they died. The look of his father and brother, the scarred bodies and the desperate and painful eyes when they watched people die in front of them..."

"I can't do it now..."

"They're looking at me..."

"Then go." Yan Hui hugged him suddenly, wrapped his arms tightly around his waist, and patted his shoulder like coaxing a child, "Do whatever you want. I'll accompany you."

Yan Zhijin raised his head blankly and raised his arms bluntly.

His body was heavy, like a log soaked in water, and he was about to fall continuously. He could only try to grab any thing that could be relied on, and hang the weight of his whole body on it.

"In two days, accompany me to country A, where Snowf is."

***

Qi Li'an opened his eyes with difficulty.

What caught the eye was the snow-white ceiling and the light that was not soft at all.

He had a splitting headache and struggled to adjust his sight, trying to distinguish his situation.

People often come and go around, and he vaguely heard someone saying that he was dazed and bumped against the wall for no reason, but he didn't respond to what others said.It was several well-trained soldiers who worked together to stop him and save his life.

Even so, his forehead was still bleeding.

Memories came back intermittently.

He remembered that he went to find Yan Zhijin, Yan Zhijin was angry with him, and then...

Heartbeat stopped suddenly.

Then he saw the snake.

The powerful and creepy snake that should have been in his lab.

The poisonous snake swung its head pretentiously before him, showing off its sharp fangs.

Yan Zhijin and the snake seem to be intimate, even closer than the relationship between the owner and the pet, so close that it makes him a little... uncomfortable...

"Are you awake?" A clear male voice thought beside him.

He turned his head reluctantly, and saw the almost creamy blond hair clearly through his blurred vision.

"Fang... Mian?" His chapped lips ooze blood due to excessive movements.

"Have you been attacked? Your physical condition is very poor." Fang Mian said warmly, "Don't worry, this is your laboratory, and those mutants will not come in."

Qi Li'an's eyesight has been affected a bit, everything is blurry now, he can only see Fang Mian sitting by the bed, fiddling with something with his hands.

He struggled to sit up, and shouted fragmented sentences with his weak body: "Stay away from Yan Zhijin! He did all of this, he and that snake..."

"Professor Yan?" Fang Mian raised his voice at the end, and heaved a long sigh, "Speaking of which, you went to see Professor Yan today."

As soon as his arm hurt, the cold liquid was slowly pushed into his body, and he couldn't even use his hand to beat the prescription sleep, so he could only open his mouth wide and make an "ahhh" sound.

Fang Mian's voice was as clear as jade: "Didn't I say that there is no need to study inhibitory drugs? Why do you want to go? Do you not believe me or God's guidance?"

"Zhijin has never advocated carrying out this research. Are you calling him here to stop me on purpose?"

"Don't worry, this is not poison, it will make you stronger than ever..."
