Chapter 175 The drug's effects were incredibly potent.
Su Yingxue turned her head away, avoiding Tan Zhengmo's gaze.
He casually replied, "Don't ask too many questions, I have my own considerations."
Actually, she was also worried. She had no idea whether the medicine was related to Wei Hao.
As the two were talking, the door to the VIP room was slowly pushed open.
A man in a white coat walked in, his face mostly covered by a mask, revealing only a pair of shrewd eyes.
Su Yingxue immediately raised her eyes, her watery gaze fixed on the newcomer like a searchlight.
With just one glance, her heart sank, and she sighed inwardly: It wasn't Wei Hao.
That feeling of disappointment was like a bucket of cold water being poured over my head.
Immediately afterwards, the accompanying personnel came in carrying several cages.
When I opened it, it was full of white mice, squeaking and squeaking.
Su Yingxue's face turned pale instantly, her little face involuntarily scrunched up, and her body subconsciously shifted to the side.
Tan Zhengmo, with his sharp eyes, immediately noticed that something was wrong with her.
His face darkened, and he said coldly to the group, "Take these things to the other table, don't scare people."
The person in charge, dressed in a white coat, glanced at it and waved to his subordinates to do as instructed.
Then he walked to the table and began to introduce the virus in his hand.
Tan Zhengmo listened attentively, and finally picked up a syringe.
Under the watchful eye of the person in charge, the virus was slowly injected into a white mouse.
In an instant, the white mouse seemed to be possessed by a demon, rolling and convulsing wildly in the cage.
A moment later, a white mouse's blood vessels ruptured with a "bang," blood splattered out, and its pitiful cries echoed throughout the room.
Tan Zhengmo frowned at the sight of the carnage, his stomach churning.
He forced back his discomfort and looked at the person in charge, his voice trembling slightly: "When this virus is injected into a human body, the reaction is the same as that of a lab rat?"
The person in charge nodded indifferently: "Basically the same. You've all seen the power of this virus."
Su Yingxue stood to the side, her eyes blazing with fury, her hands clenched into fists.
The image of Tan Zhengchu lying lifelessly on the bed kept flashing through her mind; it was Wei Hao who had caused it!
He treated Tan Zhengchu like a guinea pig in his experiments.
Tan Zhengchu remains unconscious after being poisoned, and his fate is unknown.
She gritted her teeth and cursed those heartless researchers in her mind.
He secretly vowed to make them pay a terrible price.
Tan Zhengmo walked to her side, gently patted her shoulder, and whispered, "Don't get upset and hurt yourself. We'll definitely find a way."
Su Yingxue took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, thinking to herself, "Hmph, I won't let this go. Wei Hao must pay the price for what he did. No matter what the price, I will save Zhengchu."
Tan Zhengmo turned slightly to the side, his gaze sweeping over Su Yingxue, and asked in a low voice, "Su Yingxue, which of these potions do you want? Or do you want them all?"
Su Yingxue seemed to have just snapped out of her reverie, her eyes instantly sharpening.
She looked at the man in the white coat and said slowly, "I want to meet the developer. I've heard that Dr. Wei Hao is highly skilled in this field, and I specifically want him to participate in the development of the product. I don't trust anyone else."
Su Yingxue knew that Wei Hao was a medical school graduate, so if the virus was related to him, then he must have been involved in its research and development.
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the man in the white coat, and he remained silent for a few seconds.
After thinking for a moment, she slowly said, "You actually know Wei Hao? There aren't many people in this circle who know him."
Su Yingxue's heart tightened, but she remained calm on the surface, smiling knowingly: "Of course I know about him. Wei Hao's reputation in the industry is quite good. Since I'm spending this money, I definitely want to find someone reliable. I just don't know if you can get in touch with him?"
She wondered to herself whether Wei Hao, that cunning fellow, would use his real name in this dark market.
If the man doesn't recognize me, my trick will be exposed.
Seeing that the other party did not respond for a long time, Tan Zhengmo snorted coldly and made a move to get up: "It seems that you are not sincere. In that case, this business is probably not going to happen. Let's go."
Upon hearing this, the man's face showed a hint of panic, and his eyes darted around, clearly indicating that he was struggling with his inner thoughts.
Business has been slow lately, and I can't let this opportunity to make money slip away.
He gritted his teeth and quickly said, "No, don't go! Wei Hao is indeed involved in this product, but the finished product is not cheap."
As he spoke, he carefully took out a finished antiviral drug from the cabinet behind him.
He showed it to the two of them again, saying, "Just this tiny drop, injected into a white mouse with a syringe, and the mouse died instantly. The drug's effects are incredibly potent."
It turns out that this finished drug is more potent than the experimental drug.
Su Yingxue's face turned deathly pale instantly, and she stood up abruptly.
His eyes were fixed on the medicine, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Tan Zhengmo, seeing this, went along with it and said, "This medicine looks powerful, but we must meet the developer, Wei Hao, when we deliver it. Otherwise, who knows if it's genuine?"
Su Yingxue's heart skipped a beat, and she was secretly surprised. Tan Zhengmo usually seemed unreliable, but he was quick-witted at crucial moments. His performance this time was really good.
To close the deal, the man nodded hastily: "Okay, great! To tell you the truth, Wei Hao is in Ruili City."
However, let's be clear from the start: if you want to take delivery, you need to pay a deposit of 500,000 yuan first. I'll send you the pickup address and payment information tomorrow.
Upon hearing this, Su Yingxue's eyebrows shot up, and she angrily retorted, "Five hundred thousand? That price is too high! You make this dirty money far too easily, at the cost of other people's lives!"
The man shrugged nonchalantly, his face arrogant: "There are only ten of these potions left on the market. If you think the price is too high, don't buy them. There are plenty of people who want them."
Su Yingxue's chest heaved with anger as she sat back down in her chair, gritting her teeth inwardly.
Just thinking about the heinous things Wei Hao did, how he ruined Tan Zhengchu like that...
The anger and murderous intent in her heart surged like a tidal wave.
He wished he could rush out right now, find Wei Hao, and tear him to pieces.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
She was mentally planning her next move, determined not to let Wei Hao escape justice any longer.
Thinking of this, Su Yingxue frowned slightly, looked at the man in the white coat, and said with feigned dissatisfaction, "One dose of medicine costs 500,000, which is a bit expensive. Can you give me a discount? Your price is really outrageous."
The man in the white coat raised his chin slightly, his eyes revealing an arrogant air, and emphasized, "Don't underestimate this potion. There are only ten left in the world. It's extremely rare, and there's a reason why it's so expensive."
