===========================

With Connery's permission, Hedi slowly approached the crystal coffin.

Lying in the coffin was a young woman with fair skin and long light golden hair combed softly, quietly pressed against her chest, holding a bouquet of champagne roses in both hands.And her white and blue long dress has merged with the white roses laid out under her body.

She is like an exquisite elf doll, sleeping in the sea of ​​flowers.

He Ti observed carefully for a moment, then turned to look at Connery: "Is she...?"

Connery didn't look at him, only across the transparent coffin, his finger movements seemed to be caressing the woman's face: "My lover, Ophelia, is an Alpha."

"She looks very young." Heti put her hands in her pockets, and did not fall into Connery's affection immediately, "But I didn't feel any cold air inside, and she was obviously not immersed in any embalming liquid."

So the person in this coffin is either a living person, or she is a phantom at all-but who would let a living person lie in a coffin?

"That's right, she's just a projection. I'm not her family, so I can't have her body."

Connery's strength seemed to be taken away, he sat down against the coffin, and continued to tell softly: "And she left due to illness, her body will never show such a peaceful expression."

He Ti sat down beside him: "So, it was because of her that you first started researching cloning organ transplantation?"

Connery nodded.

"This project was originally set up by her. It was originally intended to save a family member, but also to save innocent people."

"What does that last sentence mean?"

"In that era, the organs replaced by Alpha patients were usually provided by Beta. However, organs were scarce. If they could meet suitable organs, they would violently snatch them. Beta who waited in line to save lives basically directly Waiting to die. But in fact, the Alpha who uses the Beta organ will be plagued by rejection for the rest of his life. In mild cases, he is restless and uncomfortable, and in severe cases, his body is covered with red spots and his face is beyond recognition. "

"Ah, this..." After a moment of unbearable, He Ti quickly reacted, "That is to say, once an Alpha suffers from a disease that requires an organ, it is equivalent to a death sentence... But if the same Alpha It is unrealistic for more people to donate, and it will harm the interests of the entire Alpha Group, so Miss Ophelia decided to rely on cloned organ transplantation to achieve a win-win situation, so that either party can live well."

"That's right." There was a bit of nostalgia in Connery's eyes, "Ophelia has a lofty pursuit, she also has the superb technology to match it, and she has the financial resources to support her to explore. Unfortunately, the research is still going on. During that time, she suffered from the same disease as her family."

"So the disease runs in the family?"

Connery's eyes darkened: "It's hard to say, although there is such a possibility, there are no samples in the original laboratory that can study her complete DNA, not to mention, there are gene mutations and chromosomal aberrations... "

He rested his chin and looked forward with vacant eyes. For some reason, He Ti felt that his hair seemed to be whiter than when he first saw him.

He Ti was silent for a moment: "Didn't she give you any clues to complete this experiment because she is seriously ill?"

"Maybe she didn't expect the liquidation of Alpha to come so soon?" Connery rubbed his chin, "A week after the disease was officially detected, Alpha fell down. She never came to the laboratory again. I only asked The news that she was taken over by government Z."

"Even if the disease takes over..."

"Yes, after the declared humanitarian assistance, she still passed away unfortunately. During this period, because all Alpha's assets were frozen, the experiments in the laboratory were difficult to continue." Connery took a deep breath, "Later When the laboratory reopened, we also downplayed the concept of copying Alpha organs, and changed the objects to Beta and Omega."

"It was Tanlang who asked you to restart the experiment?"

"Yes. You basically understand what happened later based on the records in the dossier, so I won't say more."

He Ti sorted out the information in his mind: "Although there is no evidence, you still suspect the cause of Miss Ophelia's illness, because the timing of her illness was too sudden and weird, and Alpha fell so quickly like the heyday, It is not difficult to imagine whether their combat power has long been weakened by some special means."

"It's you, don't you doubt?"

"Of course I doubt it. Tanlang is the biggest beneficiary of this incident." Hedi stared into Connery's eyes, "But I think, at the beginning, you probably didn't know who you were working for, even if you guessed it , but I don't know the specific object of hatred... When did you officially meet Tanlang?"

"When the first batch of clones I cultivated were taken away."

After the topic shifted to Tanlang, Connery's expression suddenly became serious: "Tanlang is a very cautious person, and it is not easy to meet him. At that time, my worth was proven, and at the same time, I was completely connected with his interests. together, so I have the qualification to see him."

Hedi glanced at the information given by Connery, and compared it with the date of the experiment in the dossier room, and found that the logic was relatively smooth - Connery had a crush on Ophelia at work, but the experiment had just begun. After a while, Alpha encountered liquidation, most of Alpha died in melee or disease, the experiment was forced to be suspended, assets and power were handed over to Tanlang and others, and profitable experiments were restarted. At the same time, Tanlang learned from its predecessors and prepared to With the help of the technology used in this experiment, to help him stabilize his position in the future, he instructed Connery to cultivate a large number of clones, and then used clones to do AB fusion experiments.In the process, Connery gradually understood his intentions, and at the same time approached him step by step, infiltrating his own people into the other party's offices—some relied on medicine, such as Qiao Xiu, and some directly used the by-products of experiments, For example, a BO fusion person similar to Olivia.Of course, there should be other confidants.

He Ti looked at Connery, trying to see more tricks from those already cloudy eyes: "You want revenge, you want to kill Tanlang and ruin his reputation?"

Connery raised an index finger and put it in front of his lips: "It doesn't matter, you just need to do your own thing well, and I will let you know the progress of the matter when necessary. You just need to know that the world is It should be in the hands of the strong, but besides being strong, something else is needed."

His almost decent speech caused Hedi to be shaken for a moment: "Isn't Ms. Ophelia and I somewhat related?"

That would further explain Connery's patience with him.

However, Connery's answer was a bit weird: "Alpha families are often married, so it's not surprising that they are related."

He Di was stunned—in order to win his trust, he had to make up some stories at this time, right?

Connery seemed to have noticed his psychological change, and continued: "What I value is your ability and your character. As for whether you have a relationship with Ophelia, it doesn't matter to me at all. However, I hope you have heard my confession, and stop being naive. Your blood and ability doom you to be extraordinary. Passed the knife that killed you into someone else's hand."

If it was two months ago, when He Ti heard these words, he would probably only suspect that this was Connery's ambition, but now that he heard it, he couldn't help but admit that there was some truth in these words.

"Okay, that's all for my secret, go back and figure it out yourself."

Connery supported the floor with one hand, and was about to stand up. Hedi got up first and went to help him.

"Thank you." Connery signaled Hedi to go down first, "I hope you will be in better spirits when we meet tomorrow."

The two returned to the small meeting room below. The telescopic ladder was retracted under Connery's operation. The ceiling closed by itself, and the gaps and decorations were stitched into one. A rug was stroked until no indentation was visible.

The two separated, and He Ti went to the cafeteria by himself.

The dining peak has passed, but some researchers who work overtime prefer to eat at this time, so the long tables inside are still filled with groups of people.

He Ti's sharp eyes saw Olivia's figure from a distance - she was the most eye-catching in the crowd, first of all, she was indeed outstanding in appearance, and second, in the whole institute, she was the only one who would bring a child with her.

Turning his eyes away, he immediately saw the person next to Olivia, which was Joan.And a little farther away from them sat Oliver and Ben.

He Ti walked over slowly, and within a few steps, she was spotted by Joan. Joan changed her face first, said a few words to Olivia, and then left with a plate, calling Oliver who was next to her. Silly, he didn't seem to notice his approach, picked up the plate and greeted Olivia, and then followed Joan, leaving only Ben and Olivia with two empty seats between them.

Seeing this, He Ti took a bigger step, Ben also spotted him, and cast a "provocative" look.

He Ti regarded him as air, and went straight to Olivia: "Go to the garden and wait for me, we will go there to watch the stars in a while."

Olivia nodded slightly, with a gentle smile on her face: "Okay, I'll reserve a seat first."

He Ti teased He Yuan by the way, then turned around and went to buy dinner.

He is the one at the center of the gossip. While waiting for the meal, people passing by always look at him, and he is used to it.

In the past few days, the attitudes of the people in the research institute towards him are nothing more than the following: those who think he is a scumbag, those who admit that he has difficulties, and those who feel that Alpha is terrible and stay away from him, because he is very different from many people in the research institute. I have been in a relationship so I feel that other people make a fuss.

But Hetty ignored the gossip as if nothing had happened.I don't know what stories these people will add to the outside world after they leave the research institute, and what impact those stories will have on him.

He Ti took a few crabmeat rice balls, a bowl of egg custard, a box of vegetable platter, and two bottles of packaged milk tea, and hurriedly left the cafeteria and walked towards the garden.

There were not many people in the garden tonight. They gathered leisurely on the sofa chair in the center to play dice and play cards. Everyone held a wine glass in their hands—a non-alcoholic cocktail drink was contained in it.

When Hetty appeared, everyone cast their eyes on him, watching him walk away unknowingly—he knew that Olivia would never occupy a seat nearby.

Sure enough, he found Olivia in a corner surrounded by greenery, who had already put He Yuan to sleep and put him in the stroller beside him.

He Ti put the food on the chair and set the two tableware: "Let's eat together."

"I have already eaten."

"It's not that I've never taken care of a child. Can I eat it when I'm with a child?" Hedi looked up at her, and then fixed his eyes on his rice ball. The fish roe on it was transparent and soft, and it was bitten in his mouth when he licked it. A wonderful sweetness.

Olivia didn't show politeness to Hedi any more, picked up some dishes with chopsticks and tasted them, then picked up one of the bottles of milk tea, opened it and drank a little.

The two ate quietly and quickly, not at all like enjoying a beautiful date meal under the stars. Ten minutes later, He Ti rolled up the plastic wrap that wrapped the rice balls, picked up the remaining bottle of milk tea, and gulped down most of the bottle for himself.

Olivia had finished eating a long time ago. She took out the telescope from the storage basket under the baby stroller, put it in front of her eyes and looked at the "sky", adjusted the magnification little by little with her fingers, put it down after a while, and handed it over to the baby who had already taken the wet wipes. Hedi wiped his hands and mouth: "Go and see."

He Ti leaned on the lens tube and looked at the stars. The light projected in the distance was indeed light. Through the slight refraction, he could still see the background board made of unknown materials and the dark glass.

"Things that are too perfect are often false and deliberate."

"No way, God can't make perfect things at all." Olivia took his words, "Man-made perfection actually has something else to say, doesn't it? Look at the people sitting there, everyone is smarter than me, they have How many people know that it is false, but are still willing to bear it and appreciate it?"

He Ti put down the binoculars, turned to look at Olivia: "Are these your true words?"

Olivia's eyes still stayed in the distance: "The truth from different angles is still the truth."

"..." Hedi was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help it anymore, "Why did you lie to Shang Rui and me? I know you don't want to hurt us, but what's the point of doing this?"
