The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor
Chapter 249 - 249 248 Virus Leak

249: Chapter 248 Virus Leak 249: Chapter 248 Virus Leak After spending the night at the hotel, Liu Hun set off for Imperial University early the next morning.

As soon as he reached the gate of the School of Biology, he sensed something was amiss—a buzzing crowd of people.

Early in the morning, yellow tape had been put up at the entrance of the School of Biology, and many students and professors were being blocked by the police outside the tape.

Liu Hun quickly made his way over.

“What’s going on here?

Aren’t we allowed to go in anymore?

I need to observe the data on time every day!

If you don’t let me in, won’t all my previous efforts be in vain?”

“Little Li, don’t get worked up!

I heard there’s been a huge mess in the college!

The entire School of Biology has been completely quarantined!”

“This is a big deal!

Have you seen the media’s trucks?

They’re lined up in rows.

And this time, it’s not the Police, but the security department!”

“…”

Liu Hun had only listened for a moment and already knew things were bad.

Just as he was about to move closer to ask, the whole crowd started to get restless.

Just when he didn’t know what was going on, a person was escorted out by the police—it was Lv Zhengsong!

Surrounding media reporters, students, and professors all squeezed in as much as they could.

Reporters were busy taking photos, and students were busy asking all sorts of questions.

“Professor Lv, what exactly happened?

Why won’t they let us in to do experiments and attend classes?” One student couldn’t help but blurt out a question.

Lv Zhengsong cleared his throat with a solemn face as if he were attending a memorial service and then said, “Classmates, fellow teachers, please quiet down!” Once the surroundings calmed down, he continued, “The specific situation is, a virus from our lab has leaked, and there have been infections.”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone’s heads exploded.

Amongst the crowd, some studied animals, some plants, others humans; regardless of their research focus, they all understood that a virus leaking and infecting people was no small matter.

“Please keep quiet!

I’ll tell you everything I know and also hope everyone won’t spread or believe rumors!” Lv Zhengsong spoke and waited for the area to settle down again before continuing, “Early this morning, I received a call from Professor Huang Shun.

He said he was requested by Professor Xiao Yanzhu to immediately go to the lab to thaw a virus.

I didn’t think too much at the time.

In the spirit of collegial harmony and believing in Professor Xiao’s ability to handle some issues, I allowed Professor Huang to go.

But then, the unfortunate happened.”

“A thawed virus?

Good Lord!

It’s not Ebola, is it?

Professor Lv, exactly which virus is it?

Can you disclose anything?” Another professor asked with concern.

Lv Zhengsong said with a troubled face, “Before the biohazard response team arrives, I can’t be sure.

Because…

It’s no longer possible for normal people to enter the lab where the incident occurred.”

“Aren’t Professor Xiao and Professor Huang inside?

Does that mean they’ve been infected?” A student asked anxiously, as the College of Biology’s most treasured faculty member couldn’t just wither away.

“Since I can’t enter, I don’t know about these situations for now.

Please wait patiently!” After Lv Zhengsong spoke to everyone around him, he turned and left under the police escort.

Perhaps others didn’t notice, but Liu Hun clearly saw the smug smile at the corner of Lv Zhengsong’s mouth as he turned away.

This was his orchestrated conspiracy!

Huang Shun had lost face and gone on extended leave, so why would he suddenly be requested by Xiao Yanzhu to help thaw a virus?

It didn’t make any sense.

And was Xiao Yanzhu so bored that she decided to thaw a virus and needed Huang Shun’s help?

None of this was logical, and most importantly, all this was based solely on Lv Zhengsong’s account!

Liu Hun was pondering this in his heart; he didn’t know all the details of Lv Zhengsong’s plots, but one thing he could be sure of—Xiao Yanzhu was in danger!

Liu Hun had been a regular visitor at the School of Biology recently, so he was very familiar with the layout of the college.

With so many people and reporters guarding the main entrance, he certainly didn’t intend to force his way through.

He arrived at a section of the perimeter wall, looked around to make sure no one was in sight, summoned the strength of ‘Dragon in Legs’, and with a powerful leap, he floated in as though on a spring-mounted leg.

After entering the School of Biology, Liu Hun made his way to the laboratory where he had conducted experiments.

Just as he was getting close, he heard a familiar voice from inside.

“Ha ha ha, Xiao Yanzhu, do you have any other choice?”

Liu Hun, upon hearing this voice, immediately pictured an ugly sneer—Lv Zhengsong!

He peeked closer and found that the laboratory was littered with broken bottles and flasks, Xiao Yanzhu hiding in a corner, while Lv Zhengsong was gripping a key, eyeing Xiao Yanzhu predatorily.

“Bang bang bang!

Ho ho ho…”

The sudden frenzied pounding noise diverted Liu Hun’s attention.

He glanced over to see that in one of the lab’s rooms, a man was locked up, bashing at the door frame with bloodshot eyes, his face covered with red pustules—it was none other than Huang Shun!

Seeing Huang Shun’s rabid demeanor, it was clear he had been infected by the virus.

Xiao Yanzhu should be safe, but why would Lv Zhengsong lie in front of so many people?

Liu Hun wasn’t planning to enter just yet; after all, Xiao Yanzhu wouldn’t be in trouble for the time being.

He wanted to uncover Lv Zhengsong’s purpose.

“Listen!

Look again!

See how Huang Shun is behaving.

That’s the power of the Hamela virus!” Lv Zhengsong said to Xiao Yanzhu with a cold laugh, his face devoid of the pretentious, constipated affectation of a mentor he once had.

“Despicable!

Shameless!

Vulgar!” Xiao Yanzhu leaned against the wall, white-faced, and used the most vicious words she could think of on Lv Zhengsong.

“Well said!” To everyone’s surprise, Lv Zhengsong agreed with her, continuing with a smile, “Did you really think I injected you with a vaccine for the Hamela virus?

Too naive, that was Typhoid Variant No.

2.

Feel weak now, don’t you?

Can’t move, can you?

That’s right!

What would I do if you ran away when I went out to calm the crowd?

Ha ha ha ha.”

Xiao Yanzhu could never have imagined Lv Zhengsong would stoop so low.

She had received a call from Lv Zhengsong early in the morning about a problem in the lab, but upon arriving, she discovered that Huang Shun, already beginning to show minor signs of aggression from the Hamela virus, had been locked up.

Then, under the pretext of vaccinating her, Lv Zhengsong had injected her with a toxin, causing her to become weak and even struggle to speak, let alone move.

Just as she had felt something was wrong, she had called the police to report a biological virus leak, only for Lv Zhengsong to reveal his true colors, snatch her phone away, and take control of the situation.

“Now, I’m going to count to ten.

Either nod and agree to become my woman, crawl over here and serve me, or I’ll release Huang Shun and let the Hamela virus infect you completely.

You’ll become something not quite human, not quite a ghost.

Then you will no longer even be a normal person, much less the famed beauty of the campus!

The current Captain of the security team in control of the situation is my cousin, so don’t even dream of being rescued.

We don’t have much time!” Lv Zhengsong said, shaking the key in front of Xiao Yanzhu, and then began to count, “One!

Two!

Three…”

Listening to Lv Zhengsong count, Xiao Yanzhu showed no intention of getting closer to him, just bit her lip angerly and stared at him.

Just as he counted “seven,” her eyes suddenly widened with immense joy, and she shouted, “Liu Hun!”

“Hmph!

Professor Xiao, has the cold affected your brains?

As if Liu Hun, that waste, would come, even Guan Erye couldn’t save you…

Ouch!” While Lv Zhengsong was smugly threatening Xiao Yanzhu, he suddenly felt a heavy blow to the back of his head, and his legs went weak, “Liu…

Liu Hun, how did you get in?”

Liu Hun smirked coldly, snatched the key from Lv Zhengsong’s hand, then grabbed him as if catching a chicken, and said, “Ha…

the Harala virus, huh?

Seeing Huang Shun act like he’s possessed is quite frightening.

But as a scientist, a professor, you shouldn’t be afraid of this.

Go on in and join him!”

“No!

No, no, no!

Please no!

The Hamela virus has no antidote!” Lv Zhengsong was completely panicking, flailing his legs in mid-air like a frog hoisted up, his face as ghastly as seeing a ghost in broad daylight.

“Hmph!” Liu Hun snorted, opened the door and flung Lv Zhengsong inside, “Enjoy yourself!”

“Aow!” Huang Shun, now under the virus’s control, howled and pounced on Lv Zhengsong.

After a scream from Lv Zhengsong, like a stone thrown into a cesspool, there was silence.

After closing the door, Liu Hun quickly ran to Xiao Yanzhu’s side and said, “Professor Xiao, how are you?”

Hearing the words “Professor Xiao,” felt like a knife stabbing her heart and rubbing salt in the wound; the pain was intense, her face was pale, showing even more misery than a pear blossom in the rain.

“I’m fine; are you hurt?” Xiao Yanzhu lifted her head, enduring the heartache to ask Liu Hun, her nature was like a cup of boiling water, seething and yet still concerned about scalding those who drank.

Liu Hun was oblivious to Xiao Yanzhu’s inner turmoil and distress, and upon injecting the Jiao-Long (dragon) into her body, he said, “I’m alright too, let’s get out of here quickly!”

Xiao Yanzhu nodded, leaned on Liu Hun, and took a few steps before feeling her body lighten and no longer in pain, not giving it much thought in their haste.

Nearly ten steps out of the laboratory, they were surrounded by a group of security personnel in protective clothing.

A middle-aged man with a mustache and an unkind expression on his face said to the people around him, “Detain these two for quarantine and investigation!

The rest of you, come with me!”

“Don’t worry!

If no Hamela virus is detected during the quarantine, they’ll release us, and then everything will come to light!” Xiao Yanzhu, holding Liu Hun’s hand, reassured him, always considering the man by her side in any circumstances.
