Chapter 175 Revealing the secret
When Lin Ruotang arrived at the Wu family, he saw Wu Youwang sitting in the middle.
"What's going on? You can't talk about it over the phone."
Wu Youxiang looked at Lin Ruotang carefully.
"You've lost a lot of weight..."
Seeing Lin Ruotang frown, Wu Youwang knew that she might be impatient, and immediately said:
"There is indeed an important matter. I also said on the phone that I don't need to know clearly. Go to the study first."
Lin Ruotang nodded, and then followed him into the study. Wu Youxiang went to make another cup of coffee and handed it to Lin Ruotang. Seeing that she looked tired, he immediately apologized and said:
"I should call you tomorrow."
Lin Ruotang raised his hand and said to him:
"Let's not talk about this, let's talk business first."
Wu Youhao said to Lin Ruotang:
"It's like this. My subordinate who's in charge of household registration told me that the population has been disappearing at a strange and rapid rate lately. It's all teenagers. In the past, it was always young women who were abducted, but now this is happening, which is very strange!"
Hearing this, Lin Ruotang instantly thought of something bad, and her expression became ugly.
"Do you know about human experiments?"
Wu Youxiang was not very clear about it. He said with a look of horror:
"Using humans for experiments? This..."
With so many people disappearing, he vaguely guessed that it might be done by the Japanese. He just thought that these people might have been captured and taken to Japan to work as coolie laborers, and didn't think of anything else.
He originally thought it was not a big deal, but since he became Lin Ruotang's subordinate, he had not achieved anything, so he wanted to tell Lin Ruotang about this and show her that he was doing something.
But when he heard Lin Ruotang say this, he realized the seriousness of the matter. This matter might be more serious than he thought.
Lin Ruotang pondered for a moment and decided to stop this matter. He said to Wu Youwang:
"This matter is very important. I will inform my superiors first. Please compile a list of the missing people and give it to me when the time comes."
Seeing Lin Ruotang's serious expression, Wu Youwang also nodded with a stern face.
Lin Ruotang had just stood up when she heard a knock on the door. She instantly became nervous and put her hands on her waist.
I heard the voice of Wu's mother at the door.
"There's hope. Why aren't you asleep yet? Did you drink? Mom will make you some hangover soup."
Hearing Wu's mother's voice, Wu Youxiang immediately opened the door and stopped Wu's mother.
"Mom, I didn't drink. You should go back to sleep first. It's late at night."
"It's late at night, and you just came back from the vixen. If you really like her, bring her home. Now that Dong Zhenzhen is useless, it's normal for you to find another one. Our Wu family also needs to continue the bloodline. You are the eldest son, and this is your responsibility..."
Seeing that Wu's mother was talking more and more, and making him more embarrassed, he scolded her harshly.
"Mom, go back to the house and rest!"
Seeing her son's cold face, Wu's mother felt a little scared. As Wu Youxiang became more and more powerful, the Wu family became more and more afraid of him. In addition, he imprisoned Dong Zhenzhen. These methods made them unconsciously fear Wu Youxiang.
After Wu's mother left, Wu Youwang looked embarrassed and couldn't help but explain:
“My mom has always been like this…”
Lin Ruotang frowned. She had indeed not seen Dong Zhenzhen. Although she was not happy with the person she had rescued, she still couldn't help but ask,
"Dong Zhenzhen is not well yet?"
Wu Youxiang's eyes flashed and he said to her:
"You know she's been traumatized. She's gone missing now, locking herself in her room every day. I'm worried something might happen to her, so I've hired several people to watch her."
After hearing this, Lin Ruotang stopped to look at Dong Zhenzhen's thoughts and said goodbye to Wu Youxiang.
"I go first!"
Wu Youhao saw Lin Ruotang out of the door, and then returned home with a gloomy face. Lin Ruotang heard what he called out just now, but her expression did not change at all. Either she was deep in thought, or she didn't care about him at all.
His eyes flickered and he returned to the house. Perhaps he didn't need to be so polite.
Lin Ruotang no longer had any extravagant hopes. Now he only hoped that he would be more powerful than Xie Wuwei in the future, so that Lin Ruotang would see that Xie Wuwei was no match for him. One day, Lin Ruotang would regret not choosing him...
Rather than saying that he loves Lin Ruotang, it would be better to say that he doesn't like failure.
Unable to accept that he is not as good as others, Lin Ruotang is a winner's prize. The more he cannot get it, the more he desires it.
After Lin Ruotang came back, Xie Wuwei quickly poured hot water into the hot water bottle and placed it in Lin Ruotang's palm.
Although it didn't snow in Shanghai in December, the cold air seemed to penetrate into people's bones.
Lin Ruotang stamped her feet and hugged the hot water bottle tightly. Xie Wuwei put his hand on her face and tested it.
"It's okay! It's not cold. Come on, have some sweet soup."
After Lin Ruotang drank a bowl of sweet soup, she felt alive again.
Xie Wuwei, holding a cigarette in his mouth, stoked the fire in the fireplace while muttering,
"Wu Youxiang is a jerk, but he called me in in the middle of the night without even checking the weather. Next time, ask him to come to your house to talk about something. Why would you have to go see him?"
"He really did make a major discovery this time. It doesn't matter if I go to see him. He's different now. He's always being watched wherever he goes."
Hearing Lin Ruotang's words, Xie Wuwei snorted coldly.
"It's definitely different now. There's gossip about him all over the newspapers!"
Lin Ruotang didn't notice this. She said solemnly:
"Wu Youxiang said that people have been disappearing a lot recently."
Xie Wuwei sighed and threw the cigarette into the fireplace.
“This world…”
Seeing Lin Ruotang's staring eyes, Xie Wuwei guessed that the matter was not as simple as disappearance. He continued to ask:
"What's so special about missing people?"
Lin Ruotang came back to her senses and said to Xie Wuwei:
"You wouldn't believe that in the past, it was always women and children who disappeared, but this time, the majority of those missing are teenagers!"
Hearing this, Xie Wuwei's expression changed. Now the little brat is eating me to death. No one wants the little brat. That's a waste of food. Most people are willing to exchange cakes and food for women. There must be something fishy going on. He gestured to Lin Ruotang,
"Sit down and talk carefully."
Lin Ruotang told Xie Wuwei his guess.
"I guess Japan is behind this. Maybe they're capturing people for human experiments."
"Human experiments?"
These are Japan's secrets, and even Xie Wuwei doesn't know much. He looked at Lin Ruotang in confusion.
Lin Ruotang pursed her lips, suppressed her emotions and said:
"They take people to the lab for experiments, especially young, fresh-blooded teenagers, and remove all their internal organs, even their brains. They drain the whole person and then put them in formalin."
Speaking of this, Lin Ruotang's eyes were filled with tears, because this really happened. Even the data on the water content of the human body, who knows how much blood and tears the Japanese steamed to obtain. Her throat seemed to be blocked by something, and her emotions were a little out of control.
"Their experiments involved placing a child and their mother in a room, heating the floor, and observing whether the mother would step on the child, or freezing a person's hands and feet, then interrupting them to see if the person would react..."
After saying this, Lin Ruotang heard a snapping sound. She looked up and saw that the cup in Xie Wuwei's hand had been crushed. His face turned ashen and he clenched his teeth tightly. His muscles were tense. He looked at Lin Ruotang with sharp eyes.
"How do you know this?"
