Chapter 123 He is quiet and does not fight or rob

The silver-white metal walls reflected the cold blue light. Tang Rou climbed up to the nearly fifteen-meter-high all-steel densified glass giant water tank and stirred the water with her hands wearing rubber gloves.

Calling down softly, "Moon."

This is a sensory laboratory that she has never set foot in before.

The entire laboratory was wrapped in a white special insulator, which blocked the current. From time to time, a trace of blue arc flashed across the water surface, which was the residue after the experiment.

No. 4 Blue Bottle Mutated Jellyfish.

This is the quietest and most uncontroversial experimental subject under Tang Rou.

It is also the experimental subject that has been with her the longest.

Because its completely transparent appearance resembles the soft and ethereal moon jellyfish, she always likes to call him "Moon".

It is easy to raise, but it is the most difficult to raise.

Jellyfish are fragile and delicate, and can easily cause death if the temperature is too high or too low.

Along with its excessive fragility, it also has strong and terrifying toxicity, so it was discovered to be of great value and upgraded to an S-class mutant.

In Tang Rou's absence, they took away No. 4 privately and conducted an upgrade and electrification experiment on it.

I called many times in succession, but there was no movement in the calm water.

Tang Rou couldn't help but wonder whether No. 4 had melted and turned into a puddle of water like a normal jellyfish.

"It's just an experimental subject and is the property of the base, breeder Don."

The researcher who was being stared at by Aslan deliberately emphasized the word "breeder" and muttered in a low voice,

"What's more, it's not dead, it's just a little mutated."

"A little mutation!" Aslan's voice rose, "You electrified a jellyfish, are you crazy?"

Tang Rou took a deep breath and clenched her fingers.

The person in charge of this experiment was someone she was familiar with.

Xue Zhijia.

Tang Rou knows him.

He is the director of in vivo experiments in Area D, and Xiao Ning is the deputy director.

In that hallucination in which Xiao Ning was forcibly injected, the person who gave the order.

"Wow..."

The calm water surface slowly spreads out a layer of small ripples.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Tang Rou vaguely saw a slender shadow under the water. It didn't belong to a jellyfish, but more like... a person?

"Moon?" she called uncertainly.

After an unknown amount of time, the soft and ethereal streamers finally appeared in view, and the jellyfish slowly floated up.

Tang Rou thought that the humanoid figure she had glimpsed just now was an illusion.

Something changed on the 4th.

There are some inconspicuous blue ripples on the soft transparent umbrella cover, as if it has been polished by water waves. This is the only place on No. 4's body that is not poisonous, and it is also the only place that Tang Rou has touched.

She stretched out her hand to touch it gently, and the jellyfish carefully gathered the ribbon. It didn't look very energetic, but it still held the umbrella cover against her palm with great attachment.

Even through a thick layer of rubber, the owner's body temperature cannot be felt.

"Why did it become like this?" Tang Rou lowered her voice.

The man shrugged, "I don't know, it just happened after the electrical experiment."

No. 4 seemed to be aware of the owner's mood, and floated upwards more and more. The lock close to the hatch cover had electric current left in it, making a snapping sound, like static electricity on a sweater.

Tang Rou pushed it back into the water, "You can't come out."

The main component of jellyfish's body is water, which can easily melt at slightly higher temperatures, not to mention causing electric shock.

After she left, the ethereal and soft experimental subject became languid again, sinking into the bilge, as quiet as if dead.

After Tang Rou's repeated questioning, the researcher finally told her that the person who applied electricity in this experiment was actually the electric eel that escaped after electrocuting 23 researchers.

She asked to talk to Director Xue, who was in charge of the experiment, but was told that he had left the base and would not be back until tomorrow morning.

According to regulations, Tang Rou will go to the Hotdam Virus Research Center tomorrow afternoon.

She was extremely irritable, and her emotions infected No. 17 in the water tank. The other party carefully opened the lid and wanted to climb out, but he met Aslan's desperately suggestive eyes.

The translucent dark green tentacles quietly came out, sucked on Tang Rou's clothes, and were shaken away by her pacing back and forth.

The young man scratched the edge of the water tank, stretched out his hand, and whispered, "Rou..."

why you are not feeling happy?

Tang Rou didn't hear it and was a little uneasy.

She returned to the synesthesia laboratory and looked up at the giant glass cabin.

Sixth sense, something feels wrong.

She herself didn't know how she communicated with No. 4, but she sensed it.

The jellyfish swims out of the magnificent blue water waves, with streamers gently outlining her silhouette through the glass.

Tang Rou could feel that it was extremely insecure at the moment.

It is restless.

what happened?

She climbed onto the roof of the cabin again, opened the feeding cabin, and tapped on the edge, "Yue, come to me."

The jellyfish floated up obediently, as quiet and docile as ever.

Only a little bit of the huge umbrella cover was exposed. Tang Rou didn't wear gloves and felt it from a few centimeters away. There was no static electricity here.

So, she lowered her hand, touched the translucent skin soothingly, and then placed her palm on its canopy.

After the direct contact, the throbbing and panic in her heart became more obvious.

This seemed to be No. 4's emotions, transmitted to Tang Rou's mind through some unknown principle.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked softly.

No. 4 couldn't answer her. He didn't have the corresponding senses and couldn't make a sound. He could only stay silent and quietly press the umbrella cover against the owner's palm.

You can't even stretch out a highly poisonous streamer to wrap around and touch the skin of the person you love deeply.

He will hurt her.

Jellyfish are soft and fragile.

Even though it is extremely poisonous, it still cannot hide its vulnerability.

Tang Rou didn't even dare to use force, for fear of accidentally hurting its translucent skin.

It was pointing upwards, as if responding to her.

It hurts.

Because she was too quiet and aloof from the world, Tang Rou would always ignore it, and sometimes she would even forget about him. She was as quiet as a background board, like the decorative painting behind the glass wall in the laboratory.

This was the first time that Tang Rou felt the other party's strong emotional fluctuations.

She checked the filter again, the nitrifying bacteria content in the water, the water flow rate and the temperature.

The temperature displayed on the LCD screen is around 25 degrees, which is the most suitable temperature for jellyfish.

So what's going on?

With the cooperation of the logistics department, Tang Rou transported No. 4 back to her office.

late at night.

Exhausted, she and Atherland each occupied half of the sofa and fell asleep.

Behind the huge glass wall, the water body becomes empty.

No. 17 seemed to feel something, and his eyes filled with adoration moved away from the owner's sleeping figure, and turned back, his dark green eyes reflecting a piece of blue water.

In the center, there is a slender figure.

It is so pale that it sinks unnaturally to the bottom of the water.

No. 17 looked at it expressionlessly, a little confused.

After a while, the still unstable figures dispersed, and the water in the glass cabin stirred, rippling layer by layer.

The jellyfish appeared in the water again, with translucent streamers stretching out.

No. 17 withdrew his gaze without much interest and looked at the owner again.

She is still prettier.
