Chapter 1593: Bloodline Project

Jinling suburbs.

Standing on the edge of Lu Zhou’s front yard, Xing Bian straightened his tie. After clearing his throat, he reached out his index finger and pressed the doorbell.

Soon, a familiar face was projected on the holographic screen. He was looked at with scrutiny.

The face then asked, “Why are you here again?”

Xing Bian almost choked on his own saliva.

But this was not the first time he dealt with Lu Zhou. A sunny smile quickly appeared on his face as he said, “I’m just coming to visit you on a regular basis. Don’t worry, I’m definitely not going to trouble you this time… Look, I brought souvenirs for you.”

While speaking, Xing Bian shook the paper bag in his hand with a smile.

Lu Zhou stared at the paper bag for a while,

“What’s this…?”

Xing Bian didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he pointed to the door with a smile on his face.

“Let’s talk inside.”

The door soon opened.

Although there was bad news every single time this guy came here, Lu Zhou decided to believe him for once and invited him into the living room.

Xing Bian followed Lu Zhou and entered the house. He glanced around and greeted him in a chatty tone.

“How have you been doing recently?”

“I’ve been doing well, as long as you don’t give me any trouble.”

“Congratulations, you have found paradise then.” Xing Bian smirked and continued, “Speaking of which, that Z equation… How’s the research?”

“Z particle gravitational wave equation… In short, the progress is fairly smooth. The current difficulty lies in the calculation of the ε constant in the new expression. There should be results soon.” Lu Zhou glanced at Xing Bian strangely. He asked casually, “Why are you suddenly interested in academics?”

“After all, that is the key to surpassing the speed of light.” Xing Bian said with a smile, “No one in the entire Pan-Asian Cooperation isn’t interested in this, and I am just one of them.”

Lu Zhou: “I’m afraid you will be disappointed. If you come again this time next year, maybe the situation will be more optimistic.”

Xing Bian: “My instinct tells me that I wouldn’t have to wait that long.”

Looking at him, Lu Zhou said casually, “Unless a miracle happens.”

Xing Bian raised his eyebrows.

“Aren’t you a miracle?”

Lu Zhou told Xiao Ai to go to the kitchen and pour two cups of tea. Then, he cast a questioning look on Xing Bian, who was sitting on the sofa opposite him.

“Go ahead, what do you want this time?”

“Why do you think I only come when I need something?” Xing Bian continued with a helpless expression on his face, “Can’t I just want to see my old friend?”

Lu Zhou didn’t speak. He just gave him a stare.

“Okay then…”

Xing Bian sighed. He put the paper bag in his hand on the coffee table.


“Gift for you, open it.”

Lu Zhou picked up the bag from the coffee table. He tore it open and took out a document.

He hesitated for a moment before asking with confusion in his heart, “What is this?”

“A top-secret file that was released when the confidentiality period expired about twenty years ago… Originally, this stuff was locked in the warehouse. No one put it in electronic form. But just a few days ago, someone from the Pan-Asian Cooperation headquarters suddenly came to retrieve data from the archives.”

Xing Bian took a sip from the teacup on the table.

After moistening his throat, he continued to speak, “The person who came was Li Guangya’s secretary. Wei Song. You should have met him before. After hearing his request, I took him to the archives, then found this from the pile of files.”

Lu Zhou cast a weird look at him.

“Is it really fine for you to bring out the secrets like this…?”

Knowing too much is not a good thing.

Although Lu Zhou himself was a man of great curiosity, his curiosity was only directed at the universe and nature; he was not particularly curious about other things.

If it was something that might cause trouble, he preferred not to get involved in it from the beginning.

However, after hearing Lu Zhou’s words, Xing Bian just smiled and waved his hand.

“Don’t worry, it’s not the kind of secret you think. Moreover, after a century, these are things that have been decrypted. Although they can’t be directly disclosed on the Internet, it doesn’t matter if they are disclosed to the relevant parties.”

If it were important, it would not have been treated so casually a few decades ago.

Because of the events of last year, Xing Bian had now taken the position of the office director. He still had considerable autonomy and could retrieve as well as decide whether to disclose the files.

Lu Zhou frowned slightly. “Relevant party?”

“That’s right.” Xing Bian nodded while looking at Lu Zhou. “Remember what you asked me to do before? To help investigate your fiancée’s whereabouts after she resigned as CEO of Star Sky Technology.”

Lu Zhou: “I thought you had forgotten this matter.”

“Of course not!” Xing Bian grinned. He said heartily, “You did me such a big favor before. If I can’t even remember this little thing, then I would be useless!”

Ignoring his boasting, Lu Zhou went straight to the point, “Do you have any answers?”

“According to an investigation by the security department 100 years ago, after leaving the man-made oasis in the Northwest, she went to Beijing 301 Hospital, which is now the Pan-Asia First Hospital.”

“301 Hospital? She went there for—”

“To see a person.” Xing Bian put down the teacup in his hand. His gaze drifted to the women’s shoes placed in the hallway. He continued in a chatty tone, “That person is probably living here. According to the doctor, she stayed in the dormant room for more than an hour. The security personnel responsible for investigating her disappearance found fingerprints belonging to her on the shell of the dormant cabin.”

Vera?!

Lu Zhou froze for a moment. He subconsciously wanted to get up from the sofa, but he was stopped by Xing Bian.

“Don’t get excited. No matter what she said to the dormant cabin, it is impossible for people who are dormant to hear… Listen to me, this is not the main part.”

Lu Zhou took a deep breath, calming himself down. He looked at Xingbian and asked seriously, “Then?”

“After that, she left 301 Hospital and continued to find your sister, Lu Xiaotong. According to the time recorded in the file, that happened in October 2025, and at that time, your sister was participating in a security program planned by the state.

“After that, the investigation of the reason for Chen Yushan’s disappearance and whereabouts was stopped because the clues were interrupted. But one thing for certain is that your sister was the last person to see her.”

Lu Zhou looked away from Xing Bian’s face. He looked at the document in his hand and slowly opened the title page with his trembling index finger. He read the words written on the paper.

“Bloodline Project…”

When he saw these words, he suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

It was almost like…

A long, long time ago, he expected this to happen.

Lu Zhou’s pupils shrank instantly when he saw the first line of the document.

At this moment, he finally understood.

He understood the reason behind that extraordinary sense of intimacy when he saw Lu Xiaoqiao…
