Chapter 130: Chapter 125: Everything She Knew
Karim stepped forward and kicked the walkie-talkie out of reach, then viciously threw the man to the ground!
"You guys, get to 194 Second Street in District D! Bring back the people there safely before Lair and his men can!"
Immediately after, Karim issued commands to the people around him.
Most of them understood the situation to some degree and hurriedly turned to leave.
Karim then glared at the person who had betrayed the Tower, clenching his fist in anger.
The only relief was that the exact address of the Doctor hadn’t been exposed, he hoped they could retrieve the Doctor before Lair did.
However, Karim truly hadn’t expected the person before him to be the traitor!
Grabbing the traitor’s collar, he shouted angrily, "You bastard! You actually went to serve that madman Lair! He killed Jed! He killed the man who saved your life!"
"...Heh, hahaha!" The traitor suddenly let out a somewhat tragic chuckle. He retorted, "Yes, he killed Jed, but what can we do about it? Jed is dead! We are no match for him, no matter what!"
"...So, that’s why you betrayed us?"
"Yes, I betrayed you," he admitted, "The dead feel nothing; whatever we do is meaningless to them! We are still alive, we must survive! Thus, I secretly made contact with Lair, hoping he would give us a way out!"
"...’Us’?" Karim’s brow furrowed, "You have the nerve to say ’us’?"
"Because I indeed made contact with Lair for our survival." The traitor stood up, saying, "Then, Lair’s terms were simple, he just wants to know the whereabouts of the Doctor, and in return, he said he’d spare all of us from the Tower."
Hearing his words, Karim felt a deep sense of sadness, "...You are really too foolish! How could that lunatic ever keep his promise?"
"What else can we do? We can’t defeat him! The power he wields is beyond our imagination! Just the fact that he has a special communication line that works through the jamming tells us a lot! In any case, if he wants us dead, we are dead for sure! So why not take the gamble! Sacrificing one life for so many of ours, isn’t that the same choice Jed made?"
"Enough!" Karim turned away and commanded the onlookers: "Tie him up and lock him away... Later, I’ll have a proper talk with him."
The others obeyed the command, promptly tying up the man and taking him away.
Xiao Yi approached Karim and said, "I think I’ve got it figured out. Looks like you’ve got a Judas in your ranks."
"...Sorry."
"Forget that, give me the location of the Doctor first." Xiao Yi’s expression was stern. "I’ll go find the Doctor."
The Doctor was key to completing the mission, and Xiao Yi couldn’t allow the Doctor to come to harm by anyone else!
Just as Karim was about to reveal the Doctor’s location, he suddenly saw that the people he had sent to fetch the Doctor were coming back!
"What are you doing!?" Karim urged, "Go get the Doctor over here now!"
Those people all had helpless looks on their faces, and they turned to look behind them.
Then, the Doctor walked out from behind them.
"It was me who asked them to come back," said the Doctor.
"What are you saying?" Karim was confused and asked excitedly, "Doctor! What are you thinking? If Lair wants to find that Doctor, it means that he, or the force behind him, wants to obtain something from that Doctor. If he succeeds, we could be completely finished!"
However, the Doctor’s reply was concise.
"Because... there’s no need."
"...?" Karim asked, puzzled, "Doctor, what do you mean?"
"There’s no need?" Xiao Yi looked at the Doctor, then he suddenly realized something and asked the Doctor, "Doctor, wouldn’t you happen to be the Doctor?"
The doctor was somewhat surprised and asked, "Why would you think that?"
Xiao Yi pointed to her white coat and said, "Because... in the movies, scientists are always wearing white coats, and I’ve just noticed that you, doctor, are also wearing a white coat."
"This..." Karim twitched the corner of his mouth, "Most doctors also have to wear white coats, your way of thinking is a bit too jumpy, isn’t it?"
"You guessed right, I am that doctor."
"...Ah?" Upon hearing the doctor’s words, Karim was stunned.
The live stream audience was also amazed by this.
[Ah? He really guessed it right.]
[Could he really be a genius?]
"It’s just... I didn’t expect you to recognize me like that," the doctor couldn’t help but let out a light chuckle, "Ironically, I chose to be a doctor because I didn’t have to change clothes specifically for it."
"Then... the information Jed gave me was fake," Karim breathed a sigh of relief. He bore no resentment. Instead, he felt somewhat relieved that Jed had given him false information.
Right now, Lair must be going crazy over in Sector D over a non-existent person.
"Xiao Yi, I have something to tell you and Xu Woshi, let’s talk in the medical office."
After that, the three of them returned to the medical office.
Then, the doctor told Xiao Yi and Xu Woshi the truth she knew.
"I was hired by the Humanitarian Organization to come to Kelan City, responsible for developing a virus vaccine here. The Humanitarian Organization also sent two agents to protect me. One is Jed, and the other... you are both familiar with, Lair."
Xiao Yi and Xu Woshi were not surprised at all; they already knew, but Karim looked shocked.
"What!? No wonder they seemed familiar with each other, so it’s like this?" Karim exclaimed.
The doctor continued, "Then, the three of us inadvertently discovered the conspiracy of the Humanitarian Organization. They weren’t trying to save the people of the city with the vaccine; they only wanted to profit from the virus and vaccine! Endangering the whole world!
I couldn’t accept this. Fortunately, Jed and Lair, like me, were only hired, and they shared the same views as me. So the three of us took the initiative to break off contact with the Humanitarian Organization.
But without the Humanitarian Organization, we could not break through the military blockade. Moreover, the military developed the virus. To cover up that the virus was their creation, even if we developed the vaccine, they would find ways to eliminate all records, and they aren’t trustworthy either. They... and the entire city, are definitely not going to be spared.
Therefore, on this issue, Jed and Lair had a huge disagreement, leading to a split as they each sought their own solutions. Afterwards, Jed and I decided to rescue survivors while researching the vaccine. That’s how Tower came about, and my laboratory is actually inside the Tower, within those floors marked ’Men stop here.’
As for the news about Sector D, it’s obviously just meant to mislead. Think about it, we have always been understaffed, how could we possibly set up another laboratory elsewhere, creating trouble for ourselves? It’s pretty convenient within the Tower, and, after all, the Tower is much safer than an ordinary house, isn’t it?"
"This..." Karim held his head, "This is a lot to take in, give me a moment to process."
Xiao Yi, however, didn’t need to think because he hadn’t pondered at all. Xiao Yi immediately asked,
"So doctor, have you developed the vaccine?"
"Unfortunately, my research has completely halted due to an absolute lack of breakthroughs; otherwise, I wouldn’t be here working as a doctor."
The doctor shook her head, then she went on to say,
"But, I am only one step away. I have thoroughly researched all the virus samples collected from Kelan City. However, this virus is quite unique; I absolutely need the original strain to proceed."
"...The original strain?"
"Yes, with the original strain, I could immediately develop the vaccine! But when Lair broke away from us, he also stole the original strain."
The doctor looked at Xiao Yi and Xu Woshi, pleading,
"So, I want to ask you to take back the original strain from Lair’s hands!"
