Chapter 1081 What is the purpose
Gu Tongwan neither admitted nor denied He Hua's speculation, but only chuckled ambiguously: "For now, the Illuminati cannot be destroyed in a short time, but it is hard to say what will happen in the future."
He Hua seemed to be thinking about the meaning of her words, but before he could figure it out, he saw Gu Tongwan walking towards the boy who was still in a coma.
The teenager is said to be called "Little B". He Hua had known him before entering the base. They used to live in the same community. After the apocalypse, the two depended on each other for a while until He Hua was captured and imprisoned in the institute. It was a year later when the two met again. He Hua only then learned that Little B had suffered a lot in order to find his whereabouts. He even entered the institute after hearing the news and deliberately sneaked in to try to rescue He Hua.
The reason why He Hua was able to escape successfully was because of Xiao B's secret assistance. However, because Xiao B let He Hua go, the people at the base were so cruel that they used Xiao B, who was only fourteen years old at the time, as a new experimental subject for various experiments.
Little B is less than 1.5 meters tall and does not look like a person of his age at all. Not only is his body thin, it is also covered with wounds of various sizes, and his skin is eerily pale.
But what is most chilling are the densely packed tiny needle holes on the wrist and elbow arteries, which are left after countless experiments.
"If he wakes up later, give him some of this Codonopsis water. I mixed some nutrients in it, which is effective in restoring his strength. If you need any help, you can come to me or Yunyun, the girl who picked us up earlier."
"Why are you helping us so much? Aside from the samples extracted from me, you should have already obtained the lab data. We should no longer be of any use to you."
Gu Tongwan turned around and said casually, "I've been tracking the Illuminati for the past two years. This time, you took the initiative to provide me with clues, which can be regarded as a favor to me. So, what I'm doing now is your reward. Besides, I don't like to owe others. If you really feel guilty, just consider it as a favor to me."
Chen Li, who was taking care of Little B, quickly responded, "Of course, Boss Gu, we must repay your favor. From now on, forget about helping me, I'd even fight for you!"
Gu Tongwan hadn't expected Chen Li to be so radical. After recovering from his shock, he smiled and said, "We'll discuss this later. By the way, the lockdown hasn't been lifted yet, so you might need to stay in the guesthouse for three or four days. It's also possible that restrictions won't be lifted until the virus is under control. So, be prepared to stay here for a long time. As for the room fees you owe, you can pay them back later."
When He Hua heard that she was going to charge the room fee, he was relieved instead of dissatisfied. After all, staying overnight for a long time would indeed require constant trouble for the other party. Moreover, given Xiao B and Xiao Meng's situation, they couldn't leave immediately. After considering it, he could only decide to disturb her for a while longer.
The other two experimental boys were still in a coma. It seemed that they would have to wait until tomorrow to wake up completely.
After arranging all this, Gu Tongwan sent a message to Chen Yanxi. Although he knew that Chen Yanxi should have received the latest information from other people, it was still different from calling in person.
As soon as the call was connected, a familiar, low, gruff voice came from the other end. "I've heard everything. Leave the rest to me. You stay in the dungeon for the time being. There's still some finishing work up there. I'll come find you when I'm done."
