【Chapter 413, Mysterious Assassin】

If it is true that His Majesty copied many Xiao Lous, as the two speculated, then how many clones are there in the palace?

The Xiao Lou that Yu Hanjiang saw next to His Majesty that day looked very obedient and obedient, and his eyes were still a little dull, so Yu Hanjiang recognized at a glance that he was not Xiao Lou; His words, deeds, and manner of speaking are indeed like a noble prince. Are they not the same person?

Sensing Yu Hanjiang's thoughts, Xiao Lou said, "There will be no difference in the appearance and voice of the clone, but the eyes and temperament are all acquired, and it is impossible to be exactly the same. Therefore, the Xiao Lou you saw that day Xiao Lou and the Xiao Lou I met tonight are probably two people."

Yu Hanjiang frowned: "That is to say, including you, there are already three Xiaolou in the palace?"

Xiao Lou was also very puzzled. His Majesty was worried that he would experience the "pain of bereavement" again, and it was logically understandable to replicate many Xiao Lou with identical genes. However, the relationship between father and son needs to be cultivated. Only the prince raised by his side will have affection with His Majesty.

If the successfully replicated cells are directly placed in a petri dish until they reach adulthood, such a person will not be close to His Majesty, and will not understand various theoretical knowledge. Wouldn't it be dangerous to inherit the throne?

But if you keep all the replicants around, wouldn't it be a mess if there are too many?

After Xiao Lou thought carefully, he came up with a deduction: "Suppose there are three Xiao Lou in the palace. I lived in the double womb since I was a child, and I am the 'Prince' who was put on the bright side by His Majesty; the second one is the one you saw that day. Xiao Lou, who is very obedient and obedient, can be pushed out to block guns at any time in an emergency; the third one is the real prince hidden by His Majesty?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "That is to say, His Majesty is willing to invite the real prince out on important occasions such as engagement banquets and birthday banquets. But what if His Majesty is self-defeating and the real prince is killed instead?"

Xiao Lou said: "Then let me confuse the real with the fake?"

In Xiao Lou's memory, he had received a good education since he was a child. His Majesty personally selected teachers for him. The courses he studied included astronomy and geography, history and politics, economics and trade, military command, mecha control, etc., covering various aspects. The throne has laid a solid foundation.

If you just want to raise a clone, there is no need to spend so much money.

Yu Hanjiang agreed: "Your Majesty has spent so much effort on you, and has always made you think that you are the real prince, just in case one day, the prince is killed, you can replace the prince at any time? Of course, if you are killed, he will train you His prince is also excellent."

Xiao Lou nodded: "This is double insurance. Your Majesty made me think that I am a prince, and another Xiao Lou also thinks that he is a prince. We all feel that we are real, so we don't need to pretend, and we don't want to betray His Majesty. One accident, another, anyway, for His Majesty, we have the same genes, so we are all his descendants?"

Which one is the real prince?

In other words, the three Xiao buildings in the palace are actually duplicates? How does His Majesty distinguish?

The more Xiao Lou thought about it, the more confused he became, his head began to ache violently, as if some dusty memory was about to break through the ground, but it was blocked by a layer of electric grid. Yu Hanjiang gently held his hand: "Don't force yourself if you can't remember it. Let's wait and see the results of Mr. Shao and Mr. Qu's investigation."

Xiao Lou stopped recalling, took a deep breath to relieve the sharp pain in his mind, he looked at Yu Hanjiang and said, "There is one more question, I can't figure it out."

Yu Hanjiang said: "Is it about the guards at the gate of the twin wombs?"

Xiao Lou nodded, and said doubtfully: "Mr. Qu saw someone sneaking into the Gemini, but just now, when you returned to the Gemini, the two guards said very firmly that 'no one entered'. Obviously, they I was stunned and didn't know what happened at that time. The two guards at the gate didn't know, thinking that I had never left the Gemini, how did His Majesty know that someone went to the Gemini to assassinate me?"

The only ones who knew that Xiao Lou was not in the Gemini, except for his teammates... was the invisible man who had infiltrated the Gemini.

Thinking of this, Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou looked at each other, and Xiao Lou lowered his voice: "Your Majesty doesn't need to bother sending someone to kill me, he could just kill me directly. Moreover, he spent so much effort on me , there is no reason to suddenly get rid of me."

Yu Hanjiang said: "There is another possibility. Did he install surveillance in the Gemini?"

Having said that, Yu Hanjiang suddenly raised his hand.

There is an exquisite silver-white ring on his thumb, which was given to him by His Majesty that day, and it is said to be the spirit fragment that activates the S-class intelligent mecha Linghu. Seeing the ring, Xiao Lou asked softly, "Linghu? Will this S-class smart mecha have the ability to monitor the entire Gemini?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "Let's try it."

He gently pressed the knob on the ring and exhaled the intelligent robot Linghu.

The next moment, a boy-like robot appeared in front of the two of them, and a big silver-white tail suddenly appeared behind it. The tail soared into the sky, more than three meters high. Fortunately, the floor height of the Gemini living room is more than three meters high, otherwise, the fox's tail would definitely pierce the roof.

After the tail was raised, it split into two halves, one left and one right, forming the sharp wings of the smart mech. The boy's body also began to deform rapidly. In the blink of an eye, a battle mech five meters long and three meters wide appeared in front of the two of them.

The whole body of the mech is covered with silver-white high-tech composite metal, which is shiny and smooth, and the machine

The body lines are smooth, and the two eyes on the head emit dazzling white light. A crisp juvenile voice sounded in my ears: "Master, the Linghu intelligent body has been activated."

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang were eye-opened by the intelligent mecha that can transform instantly.

Xiao Lou stepped forward, touched the beautiful metal wings of the mech, and asked softly, "Linghu, are you monitoring the twin wombs?"

Linghu said honestly: "Yes, master. The entire Gemini has an electronic defense network and invisible surveillance cameras that I set up to ensure the safety of the master at all times."

When Yu Hanjiang heard this, he immediately said, "Call out the video from 9 o'clock to 10 o'clock tonight."

An LCD screen appeared in front of Linghu, which was a 360-degree comprehensive monitoring of the entire Gemini womb, without missing any dead spots. The two saw that at around 9:10 tonight, someone put down the guard at the door. The door was opened, and the black figure flashed into the double uterus, and came all the way to Xiao Lou's bedroom. When he opened the door, he found no one, and then jumped window to escape.

The whole process was recorded, but unfortunately only the shadow of the assassin was captured on the screen. Judging from the shadow, this person should be a male with a height of over 180cm. It's just why the other party is invisible? Did it bring an invisible card?

Xiao Lou looked at the monitor thoughtfully. The two guards at the door woke up around 9:30, and they looked at each other: "Why did you fall asleep?" "I don't know..." They looked back The door of the double uterus was found to be closed tightly, and there seemed to be nothing abnormal. The two were worried about being held accountable, so when Yu Hanjiang questioned, they insisted that nothing happened.

Yu Hanjiang asked in a low voice: "Linghu, did His Majesty ask you to transmit the monitoring data to him?"

Linghu said: "Yes, Your Majesty can also control me remotely."

Xiao Lou understood: "It seems that he knows that someone has sneaked into the Gemini, because he can let Linghu monitor the movement of the Gemini at any time, then..." Thinking of the thing about making out with Yu Hanjiang in the bed the night before, Xiao Lou's ears slightly twitched. Yihong looked at Linghu: "Did you also send the video of the night before yesterday to His Majesty?"

Linghu's voice was a bit dazed: "The night before yesterday, I was in a dormant state, and I didn't record anything."

Yu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows: "You don't record video while you're sleeping? What if someone breaks into your twin uterus while you're sleeping?"

Linghu explained: "Once an outsider approaches the Gemini, my infrared detector will automatically sense it, and immediately open the hidden monitoring network to pay attention to the other party's movements. If someone is unfavorable to His Royal Highness, I will immediately send out an alarm."

Yu Hanjiang understood, looked at Xiao Lou and said, "Just like the driving recorder, the recorder will automatically start recording when someone passes by the vehicle. However, Linghu is much more advanced than that."

Xiao Loudao: "After all, it is an S-class smart mech, and it can deform. Maybe it can take us to interstellar flight?"

Linghu was at a loss: "Master, what are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, you go to sleep." Yu Hanjiang pressed the ring, and the mecha in front of him quickly changed back to the appearance of an ordinary intelligent robot, and retreated obediently.

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou were going to take a bath and rest.

Xiao Lou asked Yu Hanjiang to wash first, Yu Hanjiang entered the bathroom and turned on the shower, Xiao Lou turned around and sat on the sofa, just about to turn on his brain to watch the news, when suddenly he felt a gust of cold wind blowing behind him, Xiao Lou turned his head vigilantly, the next moment, a The cold hands grabbed his neck neatly, and a deep voice rang in his ear: "Don't move."

A gun was pressed against the lower back, and Xiao Lou's back stiffened slightly.

He told Yu Hanjiang about his current situation through a tacit understanding: "There was a surprise attack, and I couldn't see him. There was no image of him in the mirror, so he should be invisible."

In the bathroom, Yu Hanjiang turned on the shower very loudly, pretending to be taking a bath, but actually quickly got dressed, hid behind the door, and asked Xiao Lou with a tacit understanding: "Is that the assassin? Did he stay in the twin wombs all the time? Didn't run away?"

Regardless of Qu Wanyue or Linghu's monitoring, what they saw was that the window was opened, and a black figure came out of the window...

Did not see anyone go out.

This person has been hiding in Xiao Lou's bedroom?

【Chapter 414, Restoration】

At the same time, Shao Qingge and Ye Qi followed Lu Jiuchuan's car to his residence.

Lu Jiuchuan has always been worried about Tang Ci's leg injury. He happened to meet Shao and Ye today, and everyone had time, so Lu Jiuchuan privately told Shao Qingge to heal Tang Ci's leg tonight, and Shao Qingge readily agreed .

After arriving at the villa, Lu Jiuchuan locked the door, picked Tang Ci up and put him on the sofa.

Shao Qingge said: "Xiaoye, use your card. Mr. Tang, let me see your legs."

Tang Ci rolled up his trouser legs calmly. There was nothing under his knees. His legs seemed to be cut off by some sharp weapon. It made people feel worried. It was hard to imagine how this person persisted. .

Shao Qingge patted Ye Qi's shoulder lightly: "Get ready, let the worm repair the severed limbs." He said gently: "Mr. Tang, you have lost many limbs, and it will take about half an hour to grow them back. Although the Zerg will not be painful during treatment, but looking at the screen...may be a little nauseating."

Ye Qi said: "Yes, you two should close your eyes."

"Isn't it just a bug?" Lu Jiuchuan sat next to him, lightly hugged Tang Ci's shoulder, and joked, "Little Tang, close your eyes, or I'm afraid you won't be able to stand this stimulation."

Tang Ci ignored Lu Jiuchuan's joke, looked at his severed limb without hesitation, and said, "It's okay, come on."

Ye Qi said, "Shall we start now?"

Tang Ci nodded: "Yes."

Ye Qi took out the worm king card and transformed into the worm king. Tang Ci found that Xiao Ye's eyes suddenly turned blood red, which was pretty cool.

Then, Xiaoye gently touched Tang Ci's severed limb with her fingers, and many bugs crawled out along Ye Qi's fingertips, and gently clung to Tang Ci's severed leg. Lu Jiuchuan was so disgusted by this scene that his scalp tingled, but Tang Ci, with a calm expression, commented lightly: "You bugs are quite cute."

Three people: "..."

cute?

Lu Jiuchuan helped his forehead helplessly: "I forgot that he likes bugs, and even made a bunch of mechanical ants."

Shao Qingge smiled lightly and touched his nose: "Mr. Tang's preferences are really special."

Ye Qi looked very serious, he had to concentrate on treatment.

The Ace of Insects consumes the reserved Zerg every time it treats a wound. The consumption of ordinary wounds ranges from 1% to 10%. About 50% off. The strength of the Zerg Ace card is proportional to the number of stored Zerg, and the strength of this card will also be halved within the next 24 hours.

Fortunately, Shao Qingge still has an ace of bugs. Moreover, the transformation of the insect king only lasts for 24 hours, and they may not be in danger during these 24 hours. Even if Ye Qi's card only cures Tang Ci, it is a good deal. Because the S-level secret room data will not be cleared, as long as it is cured now, Tang Ci's legs will still be healthy after leaving the secret room!

Thanks to the efforts of the bugs, Tang Ci's broken leg began to slowly grow new flesh and blood...

The newborn flesh was very tender, and under the light, the skin of the calf was almost transparent in white.

This scene was very miraculous. Lu Jiuchuan watched it for a while, and suddenly, some pictures flashed in his mind, and he felt a headache. Lu Jiuchuan hugged his head hard, and his voice was hoarse: "Zerg... By the way, Zerg..."

Shao Qingge looked back at him: "What did you think of?"

The Zerg secret room is the 8 of spades secret room that Xiao Lou's team cleared. At that time, Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci had not yet joined the team, and they had not experienced the Zerg dungeon. This was the first time Lu Jiuchuan saw the scene of the worm healing the wound, but the strange thing is that this scene... seems to have been left in his memory, and it looks very familiar.

He took a deep breath, pressed his swollen temples and said, "Where have I seen this kind of bug?"

Tang Ci was stunned, and looked at the worm on his leg: "I also have a little impression."

Shao Qingge narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "You guys have never been to the secret room of the Zerg race. The first week after we formed a team was a square week. The Zerg King card was banned, and Ye Qi and I didn't take it out either. But, logically speaking, you haven’t seen the Zerg before. Since you remember it, maybe you only saw it in this world?”

Tang Ci raised his head: "Could it be Hilt's no-man's land? It's related to our lost memory?"

Lu Jiuchuan knocked his head hard, and said: "It's possible. The Zerg is an alien creature. We are now in the interstellar era. It doesn't seem strange to see the Zerg on a distant planet?"

Shao Qingge said: "The Zergs originally came from aliens, and it is indeed possible to see them again in the interstellar dungeon. However, the Zergs in this world should be an upgraded version, which is different from the batch we encountered. An ace of bugs can order all the Zergs to listen to me, and send us millions of Zergs for nothing, I don’t think the gatekeepers will be so kind.”

Lu Jiuchuan also felt that it was impossible for the gatekeepers to send a group of Zergs to Shao Qingge as helpers.

What exactly is the bug in my memory?

Half an hour passed quickly, Ye Qi was concentrating on the treatment, his forehead was dripping with sweat, he put away the worm, looked at Tang Ci's calf excitedly, and said, "Okay, it really grew!"

Tang Ci's legs have grown completely, and even his white toes are very distinct. Tang Ci was delighted, and tried to stand up, but because he hadn't stood up for a long time, his legs felt weak for a while, and he almost fell back on the sofa.

Lu Jiuchuan hurriedly supported him and let him lean in his arms, his voice was low and gentle: "Be careful."

Tang Ci looked at Ye Qi and Shao Qingge. He seemed to be holding back some emotions, and a layer of water appeared in his eyes: "Thank you, I never thought that I could...stand up again."

Ye Qi scratched his head with a smile: "You are welcome, Mr. Tang, it is just a card, it should be."

Lu Jiuchuan said to Shao Qingge: "I won't be polite. If you need it in the future, you can speak up at any time."

Shao Qingge nodded: "Yes. After all, Mr. Tang's legs have just grown out, and we have never used Zerg's amputated limbs to repair them. I don't know how the effect will be. Don't walk too much in the past two days, and get used to it slowly."

Lu Jiuchuan smiled: "Don't worry, I will watch him."

Seeing that it was already very late, Shao Qingge and Ye Qi bid farewell and returned to their residence.

Tang Ci insisted on trying to walk a few steps, but his legs trembled after only two steps. Obviously, he was not used to the new legs, and he was walking barefoot on the marble floor, which made Lu Jiuchuan feel distressed .

Seeing that his face turned pale, Lu Jiuchuan simply picked him up and brought him back to the bedroom, and ordered solemnly: "You give me a good rest. The newly grown legs must have a process of adaptation, and patients who recover from fractures must Do your rehabilitation slowly, not to mention you haven't walked for half a year, what's the rush? I'll take a walk with you tomorrow."

Meeting his concerned eyes, Tang Ci rarely showed a slight smile on his face: "Ninth Brother."

Lu Jiuchuan waved his hand: "There is no discussion."

Tang Ci's voice was very soft: "Thank you for being with me all the time. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to persist."

Lu Jiuchuan was startled: "What?"

Tang Ci got into the bed, covered the quilt and turned over: "Don't say good things twice, forget it if you don't hear it."

Lu Jiuchuan: "..."

He really didn't hear clearly, but only vaguely heard the word "thank you". Lu Jiuchuan touched his nose with a light smile, and said, "You're welcome. When did you see each other like this? You have a good rest, and we'll talk about things tomorrow."

He leaned over and pulled the quilt for Tang Ci, and the smile on his lips couldn't help but widen.

It was a miracle that Tang Ci could still stand up.

No longer need to sit in a wheelchair and pretend to be calm to cover the empty half of the trouser legs with a blanket.

Tang Ci in the past had straight and slender legs, and he walked confidently and calmly. For the past six months, he has had limited mobility in a wheelchair, and even going to the bathroom is a torture, so he tried to reduce his three meals a day, and he lost a lot of weight. Lu Jiuchuan saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. He wished he could resign for Tang and suffer this crime.

Now, Tang Ci, who can walk, is back again, which is great.

Lu Jiuchuan sat by the bed, looked at the pale person lying on the bed, and secretly swore in his heart that this time, he would definitely protect this person and never let Xiao Tang suffer any more grievances.

***

After Shao Qingge and Ye Qi returned home, they turned on the phone and heard Tang Ci's message.

The two were in a hurry to attend the prince's birthday banquet, and indeed missed this crucial message. Fortunately, the "Xiao Lou" in the palace did not do anything against them, and Shao Qingge and Ye Qi were not copied. Influence.

After Ye Qi was tired all day, he changed his military uniform and went to take a shower first, while Shao Qingge came to the study and turned on the smart optical brain.

His father had already passed away, and he handed Noah Medical Technology Company to Shao Qingge to manage, and at the same time, he also gave him a key to activate the safe stored by the Shao family in the bank.

It was an induction ring, which had been locked in a cabinet in the study by Shao Qingge.

After walking into the study, he remembered this incident, and immediately opened the combination lock with his fingerprints, and sure enough, he saw the blue ring lying there quietly.

He took out the ring and put it on his hand. About this ring, he remembered that his father gave it to him before he died. Many wealthy people will rent a safe in the bank to store gold or cash for emergencies. This kind of safe usually needs a special token to open. What is the thing that my father keeps in the bank safe? You can't leave him a sum of money, can you?

Could it be related to the Noah's Ark project?

Shao Qingge frowned, logged into the medical technology company's management system in the optical brain, and entered his identity and password. Now he is the highest authority in the company and has the highest system authority.

He checked the company's investment projects over the years, and he found the Noah's Ark project 20 years ago.

Opening the project proposal, Shao Qingge read it carefully and found several doubtful points.

First, this project is written as "Noah's Ark Restart Plan" - restart, which means that there has been a Noah's Ark plan before this. When was the first time? What did you study?

Second, the amount of project investment, converted into RMB, is as high as three billion yuan. Such an important project plan did not list any details, including where the funds went, cost budget, profit attribution, etc. The plan was too brief, and it only said that "the genetic project will benefit mankind", shouting a bunch of falsehoods. Dakong's slogan, but without any core content.

The 3 billion investment will definitely need to be discussed and approved by the board of directors. It can be approved by the board of directors. Obviously, this top-secret research was approved by the executives of the company's board of directors at that time. They also knew that this matter involved too many medical ethics issues, so they dared not speak up and deliberately let the proposal do it. Very vague.

Shao Qingge glanced at the list, and there was his father's signature on the plan, and besides that, there were some information about cooperating scientists, including a well-known professor from the Imperial Chinese Academy of Sciences... Zhang Shaohua?

Isn't this Lin Yan's mother?

Shao Qingge narrowed his eyes, copied this document, and planned to send it to Xiao Lou tomorrow.

In addition, the ring of the safe must be an important clue. When the bank goes to work, he will go to the bank as soon as possible to open the safe left by his father.
