Chapter 723: Lots of Fun in the Sanatorium 08

Jin Chen bellowed, "What monster are you?!"

The monster turned its head and gave him a faint smile.

"Hiss..."

Bai Wenran Nurse Team: "... Your Highness, this is our White Snake Miss."

Jin Chen's mouth twitched; he almost couldn't catch his words.

He maintained his composure and then shouted angrily, "Someone! Such evil objects are not allowed in the imperial palace! Drag it away and behead it!"

"Hiss!"

The White Snake Miss suddenly growled at him, apparently sensing danger.

The nurses exclaimed, "Your Highness, you mustn't!"

"Princess Consort! Please persuade His Highness quickly!"

"Taking life shortens lifespan, Princess Consort!"

Shen Yan's vision went dark.

He tugged at Jin Chen's sleeve, "Your... Your Highness, forget it."

Jin Chen was overjoyed inside, but kept a stern frown, asking, "Madam, you're not afraid anymore?"

"Not afraid..." Shen Yan said, paused, then forced himself to add another sentence out of embarrassment.

"With you here... I'm not afraid."

Jin Chen nodded satisfactorily, waved his hand, "Since that's the case, let it go free—I am not a cruel person after all."

"Thank heavens—"

Bai Wenran's nurse team all let out a sigh of relief.

Then, leading the White Snake Miss still crawling darkly in the corner, they planned to go somewhere far from Jin Chen.

Jin Chen pulled Shen Yan onward, sighing with admiration, "Madam, you truly deserve the title of Top Scholar—your kindness is a blessing to the people."

Shen Yan chuckled twice.

Really, thank you for arranging such a good identity for me.

The two strolled several laps in the Imperial Garden, finally making Jin Chen walk himself hungry.

"Someone! Go to the imperial kitchen."

The imperial kitchen was specially decorated luxuriously.

After all, the whole island only supports these five people.

Yi Fei An was leisurely drinking porridge, occasionally rubbing his belly, his face full of gentle affection.

The darkly crawling White Snake Miss also ate here, curling up in the soft sofa in an extremely strange, distorted posture, nibbling at a bun near her neck.

The glass filled with orange juice was pushed far away by her; it seemed she feared it contained realgar wine.

Jiang Qiu calmly drank his porridge, perhaps as a final meal for himself, letting the corpse eat its last full meal.

Of course, the Huakui gentleman who had fainted from fright still hadn't awakened.

All in all, the imperial kitchen could be called harmonious.

But Jin Chen entered.

He took Shen Yan to sit down, then disparagingly took a sip of porridge and immediately spat it out.

"This cook must be new—how did he turn the food into slop fit for pigs?"

The spoon in the hands of Yi Fei An and Jiang Qiu, who were drinking porridge, trembled slightly as they slowly turned their heads.

This person really knows how to earn grudges for himself.

Shen Yan, helpless, received another distress signal from the nurses, turned to Jin Chen and asked, "Your Highness, what would you like to eat?"

"I'm not picky; I'll eat whatever my wife eats."

Jin Chen immediately replied, very fondly.

Thus Shen Yan smiled, "Very good."

He pushed aside the bowl of white porridge with added side dishes and brought two bowls of plain vegetable porridge.

"It's not advisable to eat too heavy in the morning; for your health's sake, Your Highness, let's eat plain porridge together."

Jin Chen: "..."

He put on a bitter face and blurted out, "Does my wife really love eating this?"

It seemed he still wanted to make amends.

"Yes, Your Highness, please."

Shen Yan returned the smile and began eating on his own.

His purpose wasn't achieved; instead, his wife turned the tables on him.

Jin Chen, feeling wronged, picked up the plain porridge to eat; the more he ate, the blander it tasted.

What's good about this lousy plain porridge! How can his wife eat it so happily!

The nurses again threw themselves to the ground in reverence.

Fortunately, it's Doctor Shen!

Fortunately, Jin Chen is "playful-hearted"; after finishing breakfast he no longer clung to Shen Yan, giving him some alone time.

Shen Yan planned to secretly visit the dean's office.

Today Sheng Jiping went to pick up Qiao Qing, who was returning from a business trip; the sanatorium was empty in the morning, making it the perfect opportunity.

He first pretended to deliver documents, placing yesterday's organized data report on the desk in front of the camera.

Then he used his watch to interfere with the camera, temporarily stopping it.

Shen Yan thought there should be some clues here, more or less, about the situation of these five people and about the traitor.

But he actually didn't find anything useful.

His sharp gaze fell on the last bookshelf that hadn't been inspected.

After flipping through several folders, he finally found a document tucked in the pages of a heavy French book.

He skimmed ten lines at a glance, Shen Yan recorded it with his watch and uploaded it to his direct superior.

Among these five people, one actually had two E-crystals inside his body.

This is extremely dangerous.

But according to the report, this person transferred the crystals urgently after the laboratory explosion.

This also serves as corroboration: anyone possessing two E-crystals would definitely not be a traitor.

The superior replied quickly.

Find the carrier of the second E-crystal, protect him, as the first person to be awakened,

Received.

Shen Yan replied to the order.

This report shows no characteristics; it seems Sheng Jiping hasn't found this person either.

When Shen Yan put the book back, the heavy volume struck the back of the bookshelf, making a sound that caused his movement to pause slightly.

Then he tried tapping it with his fingers.

There is also a hidden compartment behind this bookshelf.

Shen Yan immediately took out all the books, and indeed found a combination lock in the leftmost corner.

But unfortunately, it requires Sheng Jiping's dean authority to open.

He tried operating it with his watch, fearing to trigger the alarm device, but got no result for several minutes.

Helpless, he could only temporarily give up, waiting for an opportunity to return.

"Madam... where are you, madam!"

Again from outside the door came the familiar noisy chatter.

Shen Yan's movement paused.

How could they even get up to the top of the seventh floor?

"Quickly go find my lady! The emperor has returned!"

Jin Chen's voice again came from afar, ordering the Nurse Team to act.

Where did this emperor come from.

Shen Yan frowned slightly, but suddenly a phrase flashed in his mind.

"—'Under one, above ten thousand, the Regent Prince.'"

Could the emperor Jin Chen refers to actually be... Sheng Jiping?

His expression turned cold instantly; he swiftly put everything back in place and then adjusted his watch to cancel signal interference.

Shen Yan withdrew from the Dean's office silently.

He was skilled; he didn't take the elevator down, but lay on the balcony and jumped directly to the sixth floor, landing steadily in the corridor.

"Madam!"

Jin Chen happened to be grabbed by Sheng Jiping; seeing Shen Yan, he hurriedly called, "Come quickly to see the emperor."

Sheng Jiping did not want to argue with him, but glanced at Shen Yan and said, "Doctor Shen, why are you appearing on the sixth floor?"

"Take medicine."

Shen Yan showed him the bag in his hand.

Indeed, there is a medicine storage room on the sixth floor.

Sheng Jiping had no suspicion of him, released the struggling Jin Chen, and let him run toward Shen Yan.

"I wasn't here this morning; they didn't bother you, did they?"

Saying that, it sounds as if you wouldn't cause trouble if you were among those few.

Jin Chen silently complained, rolling his eyes widely.

"What does the emperor mean, questioning my consort?"

"The consort is the person I married into my household; even if the emperor and I have some familial relation, he cannot insult her!"

Sheng Jiping: "..."

Crazy.
