Chapter 125
After Luoyi's wounds healed, the two sisters could be together at all times again.
They were always holding hands, as if afraid of suddenly losing each other.
In the night, they were huddled together sleeping soundly when the creaking sound of the iron door being wrenched open startled them awake.
In the haze, a strange woman's voice came through: "Oh my god! They really exist!"
White spots of light were moving in the darkness, gradually getting closer.
Luoyi was still rubbing her eyes groggily when a woman had already picked her up and turned to run. Yi Qi was also picked up, by a man.
A few servants were patrolling ahead, and the two people carrying Luoyi and Yi Qi hid in a corner, holding their breath as the group of servants drew nearer, about to be discovered.
Yi Qi pointed to a room nearby and whispered softly: "We can hide in there."
The woman tentatively pushed the door, and it was unlocked. Everyone hid inside and closed the door.
The footsteps had reached the door but gradually faded away, and the woman relaxed a little.
Yi Qi struggled out of the man's embrace, and Luoyi out of the woman's, and they tightly grasped each other's hands, both looking at the two strangers.
They asked in unison: "Who are you?"
The man said: "You can call me Mr. Su, and this is my wife." ๐ฏ๐ณ๐ฆ๐๐๐ฆ๐ฃ๐โด๐ท๐ฆ๐ญ.๐ฌ๐ฐ๐
Yi Qi asked warily: "Why did you come here?"
Mr. Su said: "We came to rescue you."
Luoyi challenged: "Aren't you grandfather's friends?"
Mr. Su said: "I am his business partner, and I happened to discover what he has been doing. But I don't agree with these experiments he's conducting, it's too horrible, truly too horrible. He doesn't even treat people as human!"
Luoyi and Yi Qi looked at each other. Having stayed in the darkness for so long, they only trusted each other, not adults, because every time adults appeared, they only saw the ugly side driven by greed and lust.
Luoyi said: "Is this grandfather testing our loyalty?"
Yi Qi said: "It's possible."
The two looked back at the Su couple and asked in unison: "How did you find this place?"
Mr. Su had a daughter himself, but at her age, she would never have such a calm expression.
So these were created children?
Extremely high intelligence, stable emotions, good looks.
If carefully raised, they would surely become famous figures.
Mr. Su didn't want to treat them like children anymore. Perhaps in terms of wisdom, the two sisters were superior to him.
He confessed candidly: "I run an insurance business using big data. Through Yuan Jianghai's introduction, some wealthy people would buy life insurance for their offspring. If the child died, the parents could get a small compensation."
"Based on the accumulated data over the years, I found that the children who died all performed poorly."
"Their parents also showed no regret over their deaths."
"At first, I thought the parents murdered their offspring to defraud the insurance money. But they were wealthy families, they didn't need that little money. Later, I tracked and investigated one client before finding this place."
At this point, Mr. Su couldn't control his shivering. He had seen rows of nutrient tanks and countless failed creations...
He muttered to himself: "So horrible..."
Mrs. Su's eyes reddened. She was also a mother and couldn't understand why these wealthy people would do such things.
When she was pregnant with her daughter, she was also afraid the child would have problems, but she insisted on giving birth, no matter the outcome, she would love and care for her child.
As for success and wealth, that was all superficial, just for show.
In a person's short life, being able to happily stay together as a family was what truly mattered.
She said: "I really don't understand why they don't want those children."
Yi Qi said: "They are discarded defective products. This happens occasionally - they seem fine at birth but develop problems as they grow older, so grandfather takes them back."
Mr. Su, of course, knew what "taking them back" meant, but hearing such a small girl speak of cruel facts so coldly made it hard for him to accept.
He had to get these two children out and give them a normal environment to grow up in.
He said: "Don't be afraid, there are no guards at the door, we can take you out."
Luoyi sighed sadly: "No one can save us, you can come in but cannot go out."
Yi Qi said: "It's grandfather testing our loyalty after all. No, he's also testing your loyalty. If you're willing to accept the truth you've seen, grandfather won't kill you. He has always cherished useful pieces."
Mr. Su was dumbfounded: "What are you talking about?"
Luoyi said: "Kind people, hurry and escape."
A shrill alarm sounded, and red lights flashed around them.
"Warning! Warning! Warning!"
"Intruders in Area A, third floor!"
The Su couple panicked, trying to run out, but the door was locked remotely.
Luoyi looked at them with pity: "It's too late..."
"Bang!"
The door was violently forced open, and a large number of armed servants poured in. The screams and fighting didn't last long before the Su couple was taken away. Yuan Jianghai would fabricate a normal cause of death for them - he was good at such things.
"You performed well," Yuan Jianghai said, controlling his wheelchair to approach Luoyi and Yi Qi.
He said: "I have good news for you. Tonight, you will undergo a trial, and then you'll be free."
Luoyi and Yi Qi couldn't get excited. Each trial was extremely painful, as Yuan Jianghai wanted to know the limits of their abilities, so the methods used were of extreme intensity.
As for freedom, the two didn't believe Yuan Jianghai would really give it to them.
They were Yuan Jianghai's precious assets. The room was padded with foam - there was no hard surface anywhere, for fear they might intentionally harm themselves. They didn't even have the right to choose death.
Yuan Jianghai beckoned to Luoyi: "Come here, child."
Luoyi reluctantly went up to him.
Yuan Jianghai studied her carefully, saying gently: "You are a kind, gentle child. You love Yi Qi unconditionally, and Yi Qi returns that love to you."
"This is a miracle. Born from darkness and filth, yet you carry light."
"According to the genes I designed, Yi Qi should have fallen ill long ago, but she hasn't shown any symptoms so far. After observing for a long time, I finally understand - you saved her."
Stretching out his withered hand, Yuan Jianghai embraced Luoyi's frail body and swiftly drew a deep gash across her neck with a knife, blood gushing out incessantly.
"No!"
Yi Qi screamed and rushed over, but was held back by the servants.
Yuan Jianghai released his grip, letting Luoyi drop to the ground, a cold smile on his face: "You can also destroy her."
Clutching her head, pulling at her hair, an intense pain as if nails were being hammered into her brain tore Yi Qi apart. Tears streamed down her face as she sobbed, unable to breathe properly.
Yuan Jianghai observed Yi Qi's reaction: "It seems my guess was correct. Luoyi's death triggered her illness. The answer I've been searching for all these years is actually love."
