Chapter 287: Changing His Way Of Thinking
“Grandpa might be busy with his research. Little Yu is the most obedient baby. She has to be obedient.”
Qiu Tong hugged Qiu Xingyu and looked towards the laboratory worriedly.
Ever since the gun battle at the abandoned factory, Qiu Rong’s personality had undergone a huge change. He believed that all the danger they encountered stemmed from the human modification plan, from his inability to develop a successful drug.
Qiu Rong seemed to have fallen into an obsession. He began to study the drug all night, even cutting into his sleep time.
In just two days, he looked so haggard that he seemed to have become another person.
In the laboratory, Qiu Rong grabbed his hair in frustration. He slammed the table angrily and destroyed the failed concoction for the umpteenth time.
After countless adjustments to the chemical formula, Qiu Rong had added all the ingredients he could think of, but the drug could not be blended no matter what. Qiu Rong paced around anxiously.
Qiu Xingyuan and Ye Luan secretly ran to his side and brought over two high stools to sit beside him. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com
Ye Luan had once read some information about the modification plan from his father. He read the complicated equations carefully.
Qiu Xingyuan silently analyzed the failed drug. He suddenly thought of something and looked up at Qiu Rong.
“Grandpa, why are you trying to find a component that can merge the various components of the drug?”
His clear voice made Qiu Rong regain some rationality. He took off his glasses and rubbed his forehead.
“Because if the drug is to be injected into the human body, it has to complement the cells.”
“If there’s no way to merge the separate components of the drug, the chemicals will scatter like loose sand and be useless.”
Qiu Rong had studied nearly every single ingredient from both Western and Chinese medicine. At this moment, he was already at his wits’ end.
Qiu Xingyuan stood up with a heavy expression and drew a sketch on white paper.
After a while, he suddenly said, “We can choose ingredients that naturally stick to each other to make the drug. This way, there won’t be a need for a fusing agent. They can react and merge themselves, eventually forming a stabilized drug.”
Qiu Rong felt like his head had been hit by a wooden stick.
As an authoritative expert in biochemistry, Qiu Rong had trapped himself in a fixed thinking pattern. He had experimented according to the so-called rules, but he had never thought about whether he could find another way to achieve his goals.
Qiu Xingyuan was a child. He might lack professional knowledge, but he was brave enough to try different means.
Ye Luan pointed at the chemical components on the paper in agreement. “I’ve seen replacements for these drugs in Dad’s notebook. We can try to replace them according to Qiu Xingyuan’s method. Perhaps, we’ve already found the path to success.”
Qiu Rong felt much more relaxed. He looked at Qiu Xingyuan and said with admiration, “You are both the hope of the future. You’re smarter than me. Are you willing to help me with the drug research?”
Qiu Xingyuan and Ye Luan exchanged looks before nodding with sparkling eyes.
They placed their hands on the back of Qiu Rong’s hand, and the trio grinned at each other.
At this moment, the setting sun outside the window shone onto the laboratory, coincidentally landing on a glass tube. It seemed to be a good omen. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m
…
In a demolition area of S City, Bo Lang and the members of the Vulture Organization were hiding to recuperate.
Jin Yang and the guards had extremely accurate marksmanship. Bo Lang had been shot in the shoulder and legs, making it difficult for him to walk.
He tore open the bottle of antiseptic with his mouth and poured it on his wound. The intense pain made his eyes turn red. Bo Lang then dug into the open and festering wound with his bare hands to dug out the bullet. He then threw it on the ground beside him.
He took two big mouthfuls of hard liquor and turned to look at the remaining few people.
Damn Jin Yang and Qiu Tong! He would settle this score with them!
Bo Lang coughed twice and struggled to sit up. He found the satellite phone he was carrying and dialed an encrypted number.
The phone beeped a few times. A man’s deep voice came from the other end. “Why are you calling this number?”
“Unless there are special circumstances, it’s best if we don’t meet or contact each other. You should understand…”
When Bo Lang heard his cold words, he sneered and said, “More than half of my brothers have died. Is that considered a special situation? You guys hide in office buildings and enjoy your lives while the cold wind blows outside as my brothers fight for you!”
“I need to see you. Now! Immediately!”
Bo Lang spoke threateningly. Surprise and conflict flashed across Terrence’s eyes.
Yu Ge sat in the swivel chair playing with a dart. He stared at Terrence, who was hiding in the corner, and tugged at his tie. “Who is it?”
Terrence thought for a moment before explaining the situation to him. Yu Ge slammed his desk and leaned forward slightly to stare at him. “Let him come to the company.” Yu Ge pouted. He was dissatisfied at Terrence’s lack of action.
“Do you want to disobey orders?”
A ruthless glint flashed across Yu Ge’s eyes. Terrence took two deep breaths and frowned. In the end, he gave in and said to Bo Lang, “I’ll send someone to pick you up.”
“Send me the address.”
