Chapter 80: Punishment
“I heard you’ve been put on a kill list recently, how do you feel about it?”
Dr. Bai’s complexion was very pale; it was clear his current condition was not good.
He didn’t even bring out his Pet Beast, White Lotus, keeping it in the Pet Beast Space instead.
However, the first thing he did upon returning was find Song Tiantian.
“Actually, these are all minor matters. The main issue is the Law Enforcement Bureau. They aren’t going after the Ghosts right now, perhaps they think I’m easier to deal with, perhaps they can’t find any leads, or perhaps there are indeed many suspicious points about me. I can’t explain it myself.
But I know that staring at me is useless, and interrogating me is also pointless. To find the Ghosts, they might need to approach it from a different angle. It’s a pity no one listens to me, so I can only go along with them. There’s nothing I can do.”
Upon hearing Song Tiantian’s words, Dr. Bai suddenly burst into laughter, a hint of color returning to his face. He said to Song Tiantian, “Are you complaining to me?”
“Then, Doctor, will you help me?”
Song Tiantian’s eyes sparkled like stars.
“Of course, I will help you!”
Dr. Bai said to Song Tiantian with absolute certainty.
“Really.”
“Of course, it’s real.”
“Then how do you plan to help me, Doctor?”
Song Tiantian asked Dr. Bai with some curiosity.
She wondered if Dr. Bai planned to reenact a scene from a novel, like a domineering CEO.
Charging into the Law Enforcement Bureau and telling them, “Song Tiantian is under my protection.”
While Song Tiantian was lost in thought.
Dr. Bai said to Song Tiantian, “I will explain the truth. You took my Potion back then, and after a chance encounter, you awakened. Perhaps it was just at that moment, the Ghost happened to be in your brain. The Ghost devoured most of the Potion’s toxicity and was poisoned.
As for you, because the Potion was diluted, you were not only fine, but your Mental Power also surged.
And the Ghost, due to the death of its clone, lost your information.
Song Jiaojiao was then invaded by the Ghost at this very time.
In reality, the entire incident was a coincidence. I even tried to replicate such a coincidence.
But unfortunately, perhaps everyone’s Physique is different, and that timing was too coincidental.
Either both the person and the Ghost would be poisoned to death, or the person would die while the Ghost remained alive.
I didn’t want to waste any more lives, and since you’ve already improved my Potion, creating the better Cold Fragrance Number Two, I stopped this Experiment.
Outsiders don’t know about this matter, so it’s normal for them to have suspicions.”
“Dr. Bai, human experimentation is illegal,” Song Tiantian reminded Dr. Bai.
If Dr. Bai were to reveal this matter, he would likely be punished.
“I know, that’s why I’m not doing it anymore. Don’t worry. The only thing is that the honor I should have received will be revoked. Moreover, the Recipes for Cold Fragrance Number One and Cold Fragrance Number Two have already been published. My merits and demerits cancel each other out, and I should thank you.”
“Doctor!”
Song Tiantian didn’t know what to say, feeling a little touched.
Dr. Bai appeared cold, but he wasn’t a bad person.
“If you’re truly grateful, then make me more good food!”
Dr. Bai gently ruffled Song Tiantian’s head, signaling her to go do her Job. He was a bit tired.
Human experimentation was indeed illegal. Since he voluntarily confessed to this matter, the punishment he received was naturally not light.
But if he didn’t speak out, Song Tiantian would undoubtedly continue to face much suspicion.
Besides, he didn’t care about those rewards; he wasn’t lacking them.
Dr. Bai leaned back on the sofa, looking somewhat weary.
He had only been confined for three days, and the Ghosts were already daring to be so active.
He was worried that the Ghosts were just a diversion, and something more terrifying was about to erupt in Qingshan. His premonitions had never been wrong.
·········
Qingshan Mental Hospital.
Dr. Mo had arranged for many female Beast Tamers to test the Cultivation Method. Everyone stated that this Cultivation Method was better than the ones they had practiced before.
Even those who had been invaded by Ghosts could sense Spiritual Energy.
This Cultivation Method was very powerful.
Dr. Mo hadn’t initially let healthy individuals practice it; he had used patients in the mental hospital for Experiments.
The results were quite good.
Song Jiaojiao, who used to act out daily and was close to madness, no longer needed Sedatives.
She now diligently practiced the Cultivation Method every day, hoping to become a Beast Tamer soon.
Earlier, to appease Song Jiaojiao, Dr. Mo had specifically rescued Liu Qun from the mining area and had him work as a caregiver to repay his debt.
Liu Qun knew he was here because of Song Jiaojiao, so his attitude towards her improved.
This significantly improved Song Jiaojiao’s condition.
In fact, Liu Qun had initially saved Song Jiaojiao because he saw her back and thought she was a beautiful woman with a good Appearance.
However, after saving her, he realized she was just average-looking.
So, he decided to consider it a good deed, expecting no reward.
After all, he did many such things.
That’s how they operated in their circle; they helped each other out. If they encountered someone attractive, they would definitely pursue them. If they were average, they’d just consider it a good deed.
He didn’t know that guy was so desperate! He was so drunk he’d hit on anyone.
If he could turn back time, he would definitely pretend he saw nothing and resolutely not save Song Jiaojiao. She was simply too unlucky.
Who could have imagined Song Jiaojiao was so crazy! She wasn’t a normal person at all.
If he had two such powerful Older Sisters, he would definitely latch onto them immediately!
Older Sisters were meant to get married and wouldn’t take up family Resources. Perhaps they could marry well in the future and be useful. Fighting to death within the family yielded no benefits; what was the point of that!
He was utterly speechless.
He fought with his brother to contend for family property.
There was no other way.
Song Tiantian and Song Ranran, just by looking at their Appearance, were both more attractive than Song Jiaojiao. The people they married wouldn’t be too bad.
Song Jiaojiao herself wasn’t good-looking and didn’t think of finding a solution, like getting plastic surgery.
Liu Qun felt like his ears were going to get calluses.
Song Jiaojiao spent her days cursing Song Ranran and Song Tiantian.
However, Song Tiantian refused to pay her any mind.
Her once bright future was now gone.
If she had known, she should have tried to seduce Song Ranran and Song Tiantian as well.
If she had managed to seduce just one of them, she wouldn’t have to endure such hardship.
“Liu Qun, do you love me?”
Song Jiaojiao snuggled sweetly into Liu Qun’s embrace, completely oblivious to the disgust on his face.
“Yes, of course I love you. I love you for ten thousand years.”
Liu Qun wouldn’t bother to placate her if he didn’t want to Deceive Song Jiaojiao into helping him with his work.
Appeasing Song Jiaojiao had its benefits; he could let Song Jiaojiao help him with most of his Job.
