[Naruto Storyline] Wandering

The Kyubi Research Institute is located in the suburbs west of the capital city center. Standing in front of the research institute, Sakura Haruno looked in surprise at the building in front of her, which was almost the same size as the Konoha microbe research.

"Go in and have a look." Itachi walked past her, leading her way.

Kyubi Research Institute includes management departments, research systems and support systems, among which the most important research system includes Pathology Research Center, Molecular Virology Research Center, Vaccine Research Center, Anti-disease Drug Research Center and other departments, and each Each department has its own floor.The entire Kyubi Institute refers to the institutional setting of the Konoha Military Institute of Microbiology, and is constructed according to the structural requirements of the Konoha Medical Department for the division and layout of the Microbiology Institute, equipped with the latest generation of experimental equipment.

"It's really amazing." Haruno Sakura said in amazement, "The hardware conditions of this research institute are also among the best in the country of fire."

Itachi nodded: "The Kyubi Research Institute was funded by Akatsuki and was rebuilt on the basis of the original research institute with reference to Konoha's research institute system. In addition, the most advanced experimental instruments in the world were introduced to ensure the best research environment. to develop a Kyubi virus vaccine."

"That's why you can serve as the administrative director of the Kyubi Research Institute?" Haruno Sakura's face flashed a bit of haze, but she quickly put on a bright smile and asked back.

Itachi didn't speak, and Haruno Sakura assumed that he acquiesced in his opinion.

After taking Haruno Sakura around all the departments of the institute, the two walked out of the gate of the Kyubi Institute. At this moment, Itachi stopped and said to Haruno Sakura: "I will ask Dr. Haruno and Konoha's Experts are concerned about the research of vaccines, the country of water is not short of funds, what it lacks is technical talents, so if you have any needs, just ask, and we will try our best to meet them."

"Okay, please count the list of the staff of the research institute here, and then compile their resumes into a book for me." Haruno Sakura nodded.She turned around and took another look at the tall and well-equipped Kyubi Research Institute, narrowing her green eyes, a faint feeling of something wrong lingering in her heart.

The institute's organizational setup, sanitation divisions, and even its instruments and equipment are all too complete. From the outside to the inside, there are no flaws. All of this seems to have been specially rebuilt and configured for the experts of Konoha, the country of fire. .Moreover, the entire building showed no sign of rushed work from the outside to the inside. According to Haruno Sakura's estimate, it would take at least a year from design to completion to achieve this level of research institute construction.

Could it be that the Akatsuki organization planned to restart the Kyubi plan a year ago?

If the outbreak of the Kyubi epidemic in the country of water is not a natural epidemic but a result of man-made...

Haruno Sakura didn't dare to continue thinking, she shook her head vigorously, trying to get these thoughts out of her mind.

On the way back to the city center from the Kyubi Research Institute, Haruno Sakura was always restless, but she dared not easily ask Itachi to confirm her doubts. Haruno Sakura quietly glanced at Itachi who was concentrating on driving—his face was calm and his shoulders were relaxed , looking straight ahead without blinking - Haruno Sakura really couldn't guess his inner activities at this time.She hesitated to speak and turned her eyes to the car window. From the rearview mirror, Haruno Sakura saw her pale cheeks and tightly closed lips, her complexion was very ugly.

How she wished that all this was just her own imagination rather than reality.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Itachi asked worriedly after sending her to the door of the special dormitory of the medical support team.

"It's nothing, I may be a little motion sick, just stay in a ventilated place for a while." Haruno Sakura hurriedly waved her hand, then quickly opened the car door, and hurried to the door of the dormitory.

After coming out of the Kyubi Research Institute, Haruno Sakura's complexion has not been very good-looking. Itachi held the steering wheel tightly, watching the back of Haruno Sakura rushing into the dormitory, showing a thoughtful expression.

Haruno Sakura did not return to her dormitory, but knocked on the door of Sai's dormitory who lived next door. After a long time, Sai with wet hair opened the door: "Dr. "There was a harmless smile on his face, but he said serious words that made people think, which made Haruno Sakura always have the urge to beat him up.

Haruno Sakura pushed open the door of Sai's dormitory without saying a word, and walked in with a gloomy face.

"What's the matter, you look very pale." Sai pulled a chair for Haruno Sakura. He sat on the bed and wiped his hair with a towel while looking at Haruno Sakura's face. "Did something happen when I went to the research institute?" thing?"

"It's not that something happened to me, it's the research institute. That Kyubi research institute made me suspect that the sudden outbreak of the Kyubi epidemic was intentional by Akatsuki." Haruno Sakura sorted out her thoughts, and told Sai about her thoughts and speculations, " If my guess is correct, Akatsuki's purpose is to control the Kyubi virus vaccine and use the Kyubi virus as a biochemical weapon. Although Fire Nation has the ability to develop a vaccine, if Akatsuki masters the Kyubi vaccine first, they may preemptively launch a biochemical weapon. attack..."

Sai's expression became cold, he slowly put down the towel in his hand, frowned and fell into silence.

"What I said...is it too sci-fi?" Sai's silence made Haruno Sakura feel embarrassed, and her voice became less confident, "Maybe I am supercilious."

"I think what you said makes sense, but this research institute alone cannot confirm your conjecture. I will report your feedback to the Fire Nation Central Committee and let them deploy the next action plan. As for you, you are You must pay attention to safety when you are in the research institute, and I will try to keep it consistent with your itinerary to protect your personal safety." Sai said, "Now, the Nation of Fire is also watching the Kyubi vaccine, and the Nation of Fire will never allow it. The vaccine fell into Akatsuki's hands, but in this way, if something unexpected happens, your safety will be the first to be threatened."

"I'm just a prisoner in the Fire Nation, so it wouldn't be a pity to die." Haruno Sakura said mockingly, "When the time comes, you should hurry away with your research results..."

"You really don't care about your own life or death at all." Sai showed a helpless smile, he shook his head, stood up and walked to the window, his silhouette was outlined by the light coming in from the window.

In the afternoon of the next day, after receiving the list, Haruno Sakura began to adjust the computer and projector of the research institute and successfully made remote contact with the experts in Konoha.Among the expert representatives of the Institute of Microbiology, Haruno Sakura did not see Ino's shadow, which made her a little disappointed.Haruno Sakura took a deep breath, cheered up and introduced the basic situation and staffing of the Kyubi Institute to the other party.

Since Haruno Sakura is in charge of both the affairs of the infectious disease hospital and the supervision of vaccine preparation, she is very busy almost all day long.She had to stay in the infectious disease hospital in the morning to learn about the new cases and hospitalized cases in the afternoon and evening of the previous day; in the afternoon, she listened to reports from various departments of the institute at the Kyubi Institute and summarized the report results into files and uploaded them to Konoha Medical at night, it depends on the situation, if there are no unexpected situations and extra tasks, night is a rare time for her to rest.

In such a tight and busy schedule, the vaccine research process of the Kyubi Institute is progressing as planned according to the instructions of the Konoha expert group, and good news has also come from the infectious disease hospital-Kyubi virus admitted to the infectious disease hospital Among the infected, there were several recovered cases, which surprised Haruno Sakura. She hurriedly asked the doctors to keep the imaging data, medication records and biochemical examination records of the recovered patients, and kept the serum of the recovered patients for low temperature storage. for research.

It was a relaxing night for Haruno Sakura. She lay on the bed and listened to the news on TV while applying a facial mask. The news of a recovered case was a ray of light for her under heavy pressure. Tingshui Temple Central Hospital also participated in the drafting of the Kyubi virus diagnosis and treatment plan, but Haruno Sakura was shocked by the high fatality rate of the virus. The patient's chest X-ray showed that the entire lung field was white, and the lesions almost occupied the entire lung. , almost all patients died of respiratory failure because they did not survive this stage.

Taking off the mask, Haruno Sakura leisurely washed her face, applied moisturizing lotion, adjusted the air conditioner to 24 degrees, and lay down happily in the quilt.

In the quiet Kyubi Research Institute at this moment, Itachi and Kisame walked into the conference room that Haruno Sakura usually used to hold remote video conferences with Konoha's experts.

Kisame watched from the side as Itachi started the computer and entered the data storage system. He looked at the neat folder classification and long data list displayed on the screen, touched his chin and said, "That little girl is really a pity. Such an outstanding talent was eventually used as a chess piece by Konoha."

Itachi didn't answer the call, he packed and compressed all the data and copied them into Guixie's USB flash drive, then quickly exited the system and deleted the login records.

"Itachi, I think we should take her in. Payne is now interested in developing biochemical weapons, and she will become our right-hand man." Guixie took the USB flash drive and put it in his pocket.

Itachi shook his head: "All the research plans for vaccine development are formulated by Konoha's expert group. Haruno Sakura is better at clinical work. For the work of Kyubi Institute, she is only responsible for overall arrangement and collection of results. We are now The information she passed on to Konoha was secretly copied just in case, if one day the Nation of Fire ordered to erase all the information and abandon her as a pawn, it would be very difficult for us to continue researching."

Kisame nodded as if understanding.

"I speculate that if the Fire Nation takes precautions against us, they will carry out the same process as here, and the location will be set in the Ogira area where there are also Kyubi virus infected people." Itachi analyzed, "We can send Let's find out."

"If it's as you said, then we would like to greet their research institute." Guixie blinked and showed a cold smile.

Itachi snorted softly with his nose and reminded Guisame: "Be careful, it's not the time to start a war, so you can only play with them, don't expand the scope of the conflict."

"Of course I understand this." Kisame said, "But it's coming soon."

The surging heat wave in the dark night announced the arrival of summer, Itachi locked the door, and Kisame stood at the door and lit a cigarette for himself. In the hazy smoke, Itachi said to Kisame: "We people, will Wouldn't it be impossible to go to heaven or hell after death because of too much blood on your hands?"

Guixier choked on smoke: "I don't believe in heaven and hell, I just know that I want to live well in this world." He slowly puffed out the smoke, "Win this war planned by Payne, win the glory of the whole life, If you lose, you have nothing." Guixie paused for a while, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out, "But since I followed Payne and agreed with his philosophy, I will follow him until the end, so don't think too much, life and death are life-or-death .”

"I thought you never thought about these things." Itachi smiled.

"Don't judge people by their appearance." Gui Jiao snorted, "Let's go, get in the car."
