8. White Ward

The layout in the white room was very simple, with only a wooden chair beside the hospital bed. Wu Qi looked at Gao Jin, who was in a coma and flipped through the files in his hand. In the past thirty years, his organization has been looking for people with ability to time in China. Although he has found many abilities who have broken through the first limit of the "door", it is the first time that Gao Jin has captured such time-capable people.

"Congratulations." As the sound of pushing the door in, Wu Qi stood up from the chair and looked at the person behind him. He was a middle-aged woman in her thirties, with short shoulders and short hair, wearing a decent professional suit. She was not very beautiful, but she exuded an intellectual temperament.

"What's the result?" Wu Qi's eyes fell on a stack of reports held by the middle-aged woman. Gao Jin had been sleeping for three days. During this period, they used hundreds of devices to thoroughly examine his body.

"He is in normal health, no different from an ordinary person, except for the concentration of ngf (nerve growth factor)." Liu Mei took out several test sheets from a stack of reports in her hand and handed them to Wu Qi. "This is the scan result of Pet (positron emission computed tomography).

"Even the lightest sound of this abnormal concentration of ngf (nerve growth factor) sounded in his ears like a roaring train." Liu Mei frowned when he saw Wu Qi's brow and looked at Gao Jin on the hospital bed. "On ordinary people can't survive at all. The secrets hidden on him cannot be found out with the current equipment."

"It seems I need to have a good talk with him." Wu Qi smiled self-deprecatingly, "When will he wake up?"

"I don't know, his abnormal concentration of ngf (nerve growth factor) is likely to be repairing the damaged brain nervous system. Maybe when he wakes up, the concentration of ngf will return to normal." At this point, Liu Mei paused for a moment before speaking, "By the way, those traitors have returned to Europe, only Lan Xiong and his disciple Matthew are left."

"Continue to stare, don't let them notice. Without my orders, you are not allowed to attack them." Wu Qi continued to sit in the chair, his voice gloomy, "It's just two little fish, see what they are planning to do?"

"Yes, I get it." Liu Mei nodded and exited the quiet ward.

Half an hour later, Gao Jin slowly opened his eyes. During these three days, he was in a very strange state, just like his soul leaving his body, watching everything he had experienced. He knew that he was studying in the underground research institute next to the Xisha Wetland Park on Chongming Island, like a teenager.

From his initial anger to his calmness now, Gao Jin's mentality has completely changed. He knew that Wu Qi's organization and several other hostile organizations would never let him go, the best experimental subject. A peaceful life has gone far away from him. He needs strength to fight against all those who covet his abilities.

"You're awake." Looking at Gao Jin who woke up, Wu Qi said in a gentle voice, "I think you must have many questions to ask me, such as who am I, why should I bring you here?"

Gao Jin didn't say anything. In fact, he was always awake, but he still didn't know enough, so he cooperated and looked at Wu Qi with a puzzled expression and said, "Who are you?"

"You can treat me as a researcher from a certain research institute working for the country." Wu Qi lied, and he took out some fake documents that had been prepared and placed in front of Gao Jin.

"I don't know these documents, I just want to know what you want to do to me?" Gao Jin sneered in his heart, but he still looked like an ordinary person who was suspicious and questioned Wu Qi.

"Do some research." Wu Qi replied, "We want to do some physical examination of you, of course this will not endanger your life." Seeing Gao Jin showing a look of alertness and fear, he quickly explained.

"We will give you a lot of money in return." Wu Qi smiled, "It's enough for you to live a rich life. All you have to do is to cooperate with our research and check your body regularly."

"I remember I killed someone." Gao Jin's face first showed a greedy expression, and then became panicked. He wanted to know about Liu Bao, who was killed by him.

"Mr. Gao, that was just an accident." Wu Qi felt relieved when he saw the change of expression on Gao Jin's face. At least the time-capable person in front of him had not yet realized what kind of power he was hiding, or the way of thinking with an ordinary person, which could save him a lot of trouble.

"That person is just one of our staff members, who is specifically responsible for finding special people like you. I think you should understand what I mean. There are some researches that the country does not want the public to know." Speaking of this, Wu Qi looked regretful, "I think his working style is a bit rough, and Mr. Gao awakened the original ability in his body by coincidence, so so many things happened."

"I have been to the Public Security Bureau, and two people in charge there told me that the person is a dangerous person wanted by the state secret." Gao Jin could feel that Wu Qi had been observing his every move, so naturally he would not see anything wrong. He frowned and said, "In his tone, he obviously didn't believe Wu Qi's meaning."

"I understand that for Mr. Gao and most ordinary people, the comrades of the Public Security Bureau can reassure you more. However, I did not deceive Mr. Gao, you should know that the confidentiality regulations in our country are very strict, and the comrades of the Public Security Bureau do not know some confidential matters." Wu Qi saw that Gao Jin never let go of his guard and did not have any impatientness. Instead, he explained in detail. In his account, Liu Bao's resume was similar to the dead Yue Sheng knew. They were transferred to the Second Department of the General Staff for their contributions during the Vietnam War. However, Liu Bao was angry with his family because of his accidental death during a mission. Finally, under the protection of his superiors, he secretly transferred to his subordinates to do things and made meritorious.

"The General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, basically many members are from the top and have a strong background." Speaking of this, Wu Qi showed a helpless expression, "And sometimes, you know, for some elderly people, the only heir in the family is a big blow, and they will inevitably do something extreme."

Gao Jin was silent. For some reason, he could feel that Wu Qi was not lying about Liu Bao's affairs. Thinking of the sadness conveyed from him that night when he killed Liu Bao, he chose to believe it.

"Can you let me think about it?" Gao Jin did not immediately express his willingness to cooperate with Wu Qi's so-called "research", but he still made the request to go home to see his daughter.

"Of course this is possible. After your body recovers, we will take you back." Wu Qi agreed. He knew that he could not be too hasty to avoid arousing Gao Jin's suspicion, but he did not know that Gao Jin knew from the beginning that he was lying to him.

After Wu Qi left, Gao Jin seemed to have a random look at the empty ward, but in fact he had carefully recorded every detail in the entire white room and reproduced it over and over again in his mind at different angles. ‘Sure enough, there is a monitor installed.’ Looking at the extremely subtle color difference on the white wall, a nearly invisible curved arc appeared at the corner of Gao Jin’s mouth. Then he tightened the quilt on his body and started to sleep.

In the other tidy room where various instruments were placed, but it was not messy, Wu Qi looked at the scene before Gao entered bed and suddenly said to the person on the console, "Put it back at this angle just now."

"Freezing." With Wu Qi's voice, Gao Jin's face on the screen was frozen, and then magnified. Looking at the strange smile on the corner of his mouth, Wu Qi frowned. He suddenly felt that he seemed to have missed something, but he couldn't say why. This feeling made him feel very uncomfortable.
