The Fallen Merman - Chap 183
Xiao Xun, who had been missing for nearly two years, suddenly returned home. This incident alarmed the elders in the family, but he was an omega, and there was no threat at all when the family property was divided. They concluded that Xiao Xun was trying to make a name for himself at tomorrow’s hunting election. He just came back, and although he felt a lot of discomfort, he still maintained the demeanor of an elder on his face.
The servant led them directly to the restaurant, saying it was a restaurant, but it was comparable in size to a banquet hall. Two long tables were placed in the spacious and bright hall, and an enamel vase with flowers was placed on the table at intervals. The servants were busy distributing utensils on the table and serving exquisite meals.
Han Xingqian thought that some big man would also come to the banquet today, but Xiao Tun explained in a low voice: “Our family eats like this every day.”
Some young masters and young ladies were invited down and took their seats in front of the long table. Most of them took their mobile phones and sat quietly in their seats. After the ladies sat down, they chatted and laughed politely and softly, talking about the new jewelry on each other’s body, and also There are some other gossips about the Song family Qi family and so on the Greyhound family.
Basically, when the juniors and the omegas were all seated, the alphas came in one by one. The third uncle was still on the phone, and his energetic voice when talking about business seemed a bit harsh in the restaurant.
After a while, the whispered conversation in the hall stopped.
Han Xingqian followed people’s gaze and looked over, the old man of the Xiao family and the uncle were coming down the spiral staircase together.
The old man Xiao Changxiu was in high spirits, but his body was straight in his old age. The slender figure unique to the Greyhound race made him not look old. Only the slack wrinkles on his face made him look unavoidable and vicissitudes of life.
Since the death of the old man Xiao Youzhang, the entire Greyhound family has been operating as usual under the control of Xiao Changxiu. If the old man suppresses these ambitious sons for one day, the Greyhound family will not be in chaos.
Ever since the old man Xiao Changxiu appeared in the line of sight, Xiao Tun has been staring at him coldly, unlike other younger generations who look in awe, his eyes are not respectful, and even the index finger of his right hand begins to gently rub his thigh, making a pull Trigger micro-motion.
When the uncle entered the hall, he patted Xiao Xun on the shoulder perfunctorily and said, “It’s good to come back.” Seeing Han Xingqian in a white coat, he frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice, “You were introduced to me by Elder Chen. Xiaofeng sees Doctor Han, he is really young and promising.”
He said so, but Han Xingqian could also hear that he didn’t trust his medical skills. The doctor’s profession has always been more popular with age, but he politely replied with a smile: “Yes, I want to see Song Feng first. Madam, is it convenient now?”
“Don’t worry, you’ve been exhausted for a long time, so stay for a light meal first.” The uncle called the servant to arrange a seat for Han Xingqian, then turned around and took his seat. From his attitude, he could feel that he didn’t pay much attention to his daughter-in-law’s condition.
Xiao Zizhe, whose face was half swollen by Xiao Heng, walked in with an ice pack on, glared at Xiao Hen before taking his seat.
At the dining table, the old man moved his chopsticks, and the others began to eat.
Han Xingqian also came from a scholarly family, and his etiquette and behavior were just right, but because he was an outsider, his position was not on the main seat of the alpha gathering, but closer to the ladies.
This made it easier for him to observe the omegas of the Greyhound family.
There are males and females, and the ratio is fairly average, and each of them can be called beautiful in appearance, elegant in manner, and decent in conversation. embarrassing question.
There was an empty space on the long table. When the meal was almost over, an omega in loose trousers arrived late. Her cheeks, hands and feet were a little swollen, and she needed help from a servant when she walked.
Han Xingqian could easily see that she had just given birth and now she was pregnant, which caused her swelling. Among the omegas of the Lingti family, the bloated body of a mother who had just given birth was extremely abrupt.
People looked at her with strange eyes, and a young lady lowered her head and snickered, and was glared by the mother beside her as a warning.
“Sister-in-law.” Xiao Tun reluctantly recognized her identity from her swollen and disfigured appearance.
Song Feng apologized embarrassedly to the others, saying that the child kept crying and came over after coaxing, and it was too late.
Seeing that it was inconvenient for her, Xiao Tun got up and helped her pull the chair down. Song Feng noticed him and smiled lightly: “Xiao Tun, thank you.”
Her brows and eyes were not of the weak and gentle type, but rather aggressive raised eyebrows. Her facial features looked very capable, but her beauty was concealed by puffiness.
This look is not the type that would be popular in the Greyhound family.
The eldest brother Xiao Zichi, who was sitting at another long table, was not far from them, but he didn’t care that his daughter-in-law was inconvenient to walk at all, and even because others laughed at his daughter-in-law’s figure, there was a cloud of shame and resentment on his face. Come on, just turn your head and look away.
The smile on the sister-in-law’s face was so stiff that it disappeared, and she silently lowered her head and stared at the delicate food on her plate in a daze.
Suddenly, she straightened up in shock, left the table in a hurry, went to the baby room next to the restaurant, took the child who was crying inexplicably from the nanny’s arms, and coaxed her nervously, making sure that the child was not hurt before she relaxed. down.
Han Xingqian closed his eyes and sensed his sister-in-law’s heart rate, pulse, and breathing. He had a general understanding of her condition. Depression during pregnancy had become more serious in this environment. It was expected that he could torture a strong woman who used to be the company’s president. To this haggard look.
Fortunately, their real purpose is just to attract people’s attention in the bright place, otherwise it is not easy to cure the sister-in-law’s disease.
In addition to sister-in-law’s illness, Han Xingqian also discovered a peculiar phenomenon. The omegas were basically chatting and laughing softly at the dining table. Occasionally, they only ate a small amount of one or two grains of rice when they put food in their mouths. Food is just a show of grace.
Han Xingqian was very puzzled and wanted to ask Xiao Xun, but found that Xiao Xun, who was sitting beside him, didn’t use his chopsticks very much, and the food on the plate was not lacking for a long time.
“Omegas won’t eat at the table.” Xiao Tun explained to him softly, “When the lunch is over, the servants will deliver the meal to the independent dining room in their bedroom.”
“why?”
“Because everyone is wearing a waistband, the waistband is very, very tight, so that the waist is thin, and the stomach will be very bloated after eating a little rice. After lunch, go back to your room to untie the waistband to eat, and you can’t eat too much. , if you eat too much, you will gain weight.”
“And even if you don’t wear a corset, you can’t keep moving your chopsticks. Others will think that this omega is greedy, gluttonous, and fat, fat and ugly, and ugly will make elders feel ashamed. Bringing benefits to the family, omegas that cannot bring benefits are useless.”
“Fart.” Han Xingqian uttered a foul language with his mouth. This kind of etiquette that ran counter to modern medical theory made him laugh.
Xiao Tun’s body was shaken, his tail was silently tucked between his legs, and he lowered his head and dared not look at him.
Taking advantage of the fact that people were gathered in the dining room, Bai Chunian and Lan Bo’s actions went much smoother, because most of the servants helped in the kitchen and dining room, and places like the data backup room were especially quiet when no one came.
Lan Bo short-circuited a few switches to divert the security guards near the backup room. Bai Chunian nimbly unlocked the lock while joking softly: “Yo, Brother Han is swearing, Ye Qingjie.”
No matter how complicated the door lock was, it was not worth mentioning in Bai Chunian’s hands. He gently pushed open a gap, put on his glasses, and checked whether there was an infrared alarm inside. He came in before the door of the room closed.
“Don’t touch things.” Bai Chunian put on rubber gloves and quickly rummaged through the backed up files on the file shelf.
“That’s it.” Bai Chunian took down a bound copy of the contract from the latest file shelf. They were all transportation contracts signed with the 109 Research Institute, including the purchase of some finished pharmaceutical products and raw materials that will be sold overseas. The list, in which the most demanded drug “Tanenine” is also among them.
Bai Chunian used a miniature camera to take pictures and send them back to the technical department. Even if the stealing task was completed, everything went smoothly.
When preparing to evacuate, Rimbaud pointed to the bottom of the file rack: “A bunch of them fell here.”
Bai Chunian was a little puzzled, so he picked it up and looked at it.
This is a batch of processing contracts. After the research institute entrusts the Greyhound family to transport the raw materials, the raw materials are processed into semi-finished products in their own factories, and then sent to the major cultivation bases of the research institute. The core technology is actually still in control. in the hands of the Institute.
The raw ingredients of some basic medicines are written in the contract by category. Bai Chunian has kept the basic ingredients of various medicines in mind. Through the ingredients list in the contract, Bai Chunian recognized that these raw materials are used to synthesize SH shielding agent. , Ac accelerant and IN infectious agent, roughly according to the number of tons, it seems that some raw materials will be left, and some unfamiliar raw materials will be added.
He also took photos of these materials and sent them back to the technical department, and also sent a copy to Han Xingqian.
It didn’t take long for Han Xingqian to say: “This is the raw material for artificial synesthesia. We have detected a special gene from you, Rimbaud, Witch Hazel and his brother. It is harmless to the body and will only help you in The connection is established in the body, but what is in your body is natural, it is artificial.”
“Syndokin… what’s the use?”
“Forcibly uniting two unrelated glands, allowing one gland to support the other gland, must have side effects and limitations, and the scope of use is very narrow.”
“Oh.”
At the end of the contract was a copy of a blurred black-and-white photo of a tall, tall ghost experimenter draped in a white cloth, with his hands reverently clasped in front of his chest and a rounded spherical object the size of a fist in his palms.
The note reads: Subject 200 Immortal Souls, photographed on March 20, K034.
Although the photocopy of the photo was extremely blurry, Bai Chunian had a weird intuition, which made him unable to help staring at the fist-sized ball held in both hands of the immortal undead in the photo.
These chapters are all transitional chapters, Xiaobai Xiaoyu’s role is a little less hhhhhh but don’t worry! It’s them all behind! Now it is the penultimate volume, and some clues to the ending have to be clearly buried.
