197: Chapter 197 Reluctantly Releasing the Person

Professor Xu Zhiran turned back and glared at her sister.

Su Nange let out a long sigh of relief; fortunately, the eldest sister had come to his rescue.

Professor Xu Zhiran suddenly said, "There's definitely something wrong with this cat. Its stem cells are continuously producing red blood cells."

Su Nange asked, "What kind of impact does that have?"

Professor Xu Zhiran replied, "It's like drinking stimulants like water. What do you think the impact is?"

Su Nange looked surprised. "But when humans were injected, there didn't seem to be any problem?"

Professor Xu Zhiran shook her head. "I don't know about that. Logically, it shouldn't be the case."

"The cat won't die, will it?"

"No, although the red blood cells in its body are off the charts, it seems to have formed a new balance. The cat's immune system is actively devouring these hemoglobins."

"I feel the strangest thing is that this doesn't seem to be a passive immunity."

"Rather, the cat's brain has sent an electrical signal to the body, prompting it to actively reduce its own level of excitement."

"Holy crap, are you saying this cat has its own consciousness? It hasn't become a spirit, has it?"

Professor Xu Zhiran snorted coldly. "Zhiyi, this student of yours seems to have a pretty average brain, doesn't he?"

"Which animal doesn't have consciousness? Doesn't it know to eat when it's hungry? Doesn't it know to drink when it's thirsty?"

Su Nange scratched his head awkwardly. "Haha, I guess so. I just got excited suddenly. I didn't accidentally create some divine beast, did I?"

Professor Xu Zhiran shrugged. "What you're saying isn't impossible!"

"This cat of yours is indeed worth researching. Leave it in the lab for now."

Su Nange said, "That's great! By the way, you all must be tired. Let me treat you to a late-night snack!"

After a day of high intensity, Professor Xu Zhiran was indeed tired. But she didn't want to move; she'd rather go to sleep early.

"I'm not going. You guys go if you want."

Xu Zhiyi naturally wanted to go. She had finished the digital AI model long ago and was bored out of her mind here.

Xu Zhiyi said, "Then let's go quickly. I want barbecue!"

Professor Xu Zhiran thought, wait, she couldn't let her sister be led astray by this brat.

"Wait for me, I'm suddenly a bit hungry too."

Tang Li drove the four of them to a roadside barbecue shop.

It seemed Xu Zhiyi was truly hungry, grabbing sizzling red willow mutton skewers and stuffing them into her mouth.

Su Nange sent a text to Tingting, telling her the cat would be in the lab for a while and to rest easy.

Tingting replied: A pretty girl from next door just came to say hello, saying she's your classmate?

Su Nange replied: Ignore her.

Speaking of Chen Liuxin, Su Nange really did wonder how she ended up with Wang Cheng.

Damn it, looking at it now, he had to kill that guy first!

Otherwise, if he found out Tingting lived there, who knows what kind of disgusting things he'd do.

Just as Su Nange put down his phone, Qin Jiazheng suddenly reached out again.

Su Nange could only pick up the phone again. "Director Qin, it's so late, is something the matter?"

Qin Jiazheng had also heard some rumors about Su Nange and didn't expect this kid to be hiding so many things.

Fortunately, he was someone who could distinguish right from wrong and hadn't made things difficult for him.

"Sorry, Nange, to bother you so late. But an emergency just happened."

"For some reason, Japan suddenly put pressure on us, demanding the transfer of that assassin's body."

"But as you know, there's no body left of that assassin. Only some shredded meat."

Su Nange said, "The Japanese? That assassin looked like a Westerner no matter how you look at him. What does he have to do with Japan?"

"We don't know for now. Anyway, our superiors have already denied it."

"But there's one more thing. I hope you won't misunderstand when you hear it."

Su Nange asked, "What is it?"

Qin Jiazheng paused and said, "In Shanghai, a Japanese lady named Saionji suddenly put pressure on our Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

"Under pressure, we had to return that previous group of Japanese people to them. That includes Himura Ryusai and Sato."

"What?! You guys!"

"Nange, I know it's hard for you to accept, and it's hard for me too. But the higher-ups probably have the big picture in mind."

"After all, our relationship with Japan is delicate, and it's better not to let things get too strained."

"Not too strained? So we sacrifice our own people?"

"No, no, no, Nange, don't worry! Japan showed a lot of sincerity this time. They are willing to cooperate with us on research for a gene serum."

What? Research on a gene serum? Could it be the stuff that assassin was injected with?

"Director Qin, can you do me a favor?"

Qin Jiazheng said, "Go ahead."

"Help me get some tissue from that assassin's corpse. You know, I just started a tech company and am doing research in this field. Why not let me try?"

"Alright, I'll report it. Governor He should agree."

Meanwhile, in Shanghai, Saionji Sawa sat across from a mature man from the United States. In the open space of the room, two people were kneeling: Himura Ryusai and Sato, who had just been released.

Saionji Sawa looked at the man from the United States with a face full of gratitude.

This was a very influential man she had met in the United States. His name was Arka, from the Deep Valley Watchers organization.

"Mr. Arka, I'm truly grateful to you this time. Without your help, the Chinese leadership wouldn't have released them so smoothly."

Arka took a sip of the whisky in his glass. Not to mention, this Japanese Yamazaki was truly no inferior to European goods.

Arka smiled. "It really wasn't easy to rescue them this time. If I hadn't asked a Watcher Elder to step in, China wouldn't have given anyone face."

"But since the person who needs help is the beautiful Miss Sawa, it's worth it."

Saionji Sawa's face felt a bit hot. She knew this man had always wanted something to happen with her.

However, Sawa did not like these white-skinned men.

Moreover, she knew that since her country's defeat, it had actually been enslaved by the United States.

These white people had no respect for the girls of the Japan in that regard.

Saionji Sawa immediately changed the subject and shouted sternly at the two kneeling men, "Hurry up and thank Mr. Arka!"

Both of them said simultaneously, "Thank you, Mr. Arka."

Arka waved his hand, seemingly not very appreciative.

"Haha, I'd rather have personal thanks from Miss Sawa."

Saionji Sawa had no choice. After all, she had relied on this man's connections to save her right-hand man this time.

She stood up and bowed deeply to Arka. "Sawa thanks you again, Mr. Arka!"

The man remained unmoved, his blue eyes filled with lust as he looked at the tall and beautiful Eastern woman.

"Miss Sawa, you know I don't want this kind of thanks."

How could Himura Ryusai and Sato, as men, not understand? Even though the other party had saved them, seeing their Mistress being disrespected like this, anger instantly flared in their hearts.

However, Saionji Sawa was no simple woman either.

She chuckled. "Mr. Arka, it's getting late. Why don't you head back to your room first? I'll make arrangements for you, ensuring you enjoy the most satisfactory service."

Arka nodded. He saw a hint of coldness in her gaze. He also understood this woman; getting his way with her wouldn't be easy.

Once Arka left, Saionji Sawa shouted at the two useless men, "You troublesome wastes!"

"Especially you, Sato! If it weren't for those businesses of yours, why would I have paid such a high price!"

"And you, Himura, after losing so many of my people, you still couldn't take down a single bar in Qiantang?"

Himura remembered that man, and a sense of fear involuntarily rose from the bottom of his heart.

That night, it was like being caught in the Infinite Tsukuyomi from a manga. Being stabbed to death and then resurrected, stabbed to death and resurrected again. He still didn't dare to recall the scenes from that time.

"Speak! Are you mute?"

After a long while, Himura Ryusai managed to squeeze out a sentence. "Mistress Sawa, that Chinese man is the most terrifying opponent I have ever seen. He is truly strong!"

"Moreover, they also have four mysterious women whose martial arts are extremely superb."

Saionji Sawa was trembling all over.

However, she still forced herself to calm down. Himura Ryusai was her number one general.

Saionji Sawa acknowledged his Bushido spirit; even if she asked him to commit seppuku now, he would do it without hesitation.

But to suddenly develop fear for a Chinese man? She was indeed a bit surprised.
