Chapter 686: Destroying the Professor’s Lifelong Work

To avoid driving herself crazy with worry, Bai Haoxue went to the film set. She only returned late in the evening because Chu Yin’er still hadn’t come out of the laboratory.

Ding finally made it through the twenty-four-hour danger period, so when Xi Wei wanted to go to the hospital to see Ding, he came back with Bai Haoxue.

In the hospital room, Li Mingmo and Ji Hanyu were both present.

Ding had already woken up, but he was injured in many places, especially his head, which had been hit with a club—a blow that almost cost him his life.

And this blow was dealt by his trusted brother, Zhang Lei.

Seeing Li Mingmo, Ding, who still needed much help, felt very guilty, "Boss, I’m sorry. I didn’t keep an eye on Number Three."

"It’s fine. You almost lost your life, so don’t say such things. Rest well."

Seeing Ding awake, and still calling him Boss in such a way, Li Mingmo finally felt a little relieved.

"No... Boss, I can’t rest." Ding gripped Li Mingmo’s hand tightly, "I have something to tell you."

Seeing Ding like this, it must have been something important, Li Mingmo asked, "What is it?"

Ding said, "Zhang Lei is one of Number Three’s men."

"I know."

Ding said, "Boss, let me finish. I was originally escorting Number Three back with Zhang Lei, but then Zhang Lei suddenly attacked me.

I was seriously injured, and I knew I couldn’t beat him, so I pretended to pass out.

They were actually planning to kill me immediately and throw me out of the car.

But that day, we operated with a lot of people, and they were worried about me being discovered too soon, and they didn’t have much time to escape.

So they kept driving the car far away.

They always thought I was unconscious, so they said a lot in front of me. Although I couldn’t understand, I remembered it all."

"What did they say?"

"That Zhang Lei called Number Three ’Master,’ and he said to Number Three:

The villa on the mountaintop was not completely destroyed or burned due to a sudden downpour.

Li Mingmo discovered the professor’s laboratory in the ruins of the villa on the mountaintop, most importantly, he also found the upgraded version of the JX Virus in the laboratory.

The upgraded version of the JX Virus was taken by Xiao Bei for research. It’s said that he has already dissected all the components of the JX Virus and is configuring the antidote.

If Ji Hanyu succeeds in configuring the antidote, then the professor’s efforts will be wasted, you need to tell the professor right away."

Ding continued, "Then Number Three sneered and said...

Developing an antidote for the JX Virus isn’t that easy. If it were that easy, the JX Virus would have been rampant on the streets long ago.

Back when Ji Hanyu and Li Mingmo blew up the base’s laboratory, it was equivalent to destroying the professor’s life’s work.

He has been researching day and night for years, but has never been able to develop a virus more successful than the JX Virus.

You really think just anyone can develop an antidote, even the professor is still struggling."

Zhang Lei: "Master, don’t be careless, that Xiao Bei is not an ordinary doctor, I don’t think he’s lying."

Number Three nodded, "I understand, I will report this situation to the professor. You have exposed yourself to save me, I originally wanted you to frame this Ding, so you could return to Li Mingmo’s side.

But Li Mingmo and Ji Hanyu are very cunning; if they suspect you, you’ll be in danger. To be safe, you’d better come back."

Zhang Lei looked at Number Three gratefully, "Thank you, Master..."
