Chapter 115: Heinous Crimes Beyond Redemption, Utterly Depraved!

"Now is not the time for you to be getting sentimental." Yu Dazhang urged:

"Open the medical incubator and take a photo, send it over."

Just from hearing the names of those medical devices, one could already tell their purpose.

There was still one thing he couldn't quite figure out right now.

Why only target children?

Can't adult stem cells be used?

Or is it that the stem cells in children's bodies have some special use...

"I've sent it to you." Qian Cheng's voice came through again:

"If I'm not mistaken, what's inside these cryopreservation bags is the extracted spinal cord stem cells."

At this point there's no need to guess... Yu Dazhang instructed:

"Keep the medical incubator safe. When the officers from the First Brigade arrive in a bit, hand the box over to the Technical Division immediately and get the test results out as soon as possible."

"Understood." Qian Cheng replied, his voice tinged with a heavy, solemn weight.

After hanging up the phone, Yu Dazhang quickly swiped his phone screen and opened WeChat.

Qian Cheng had sent a total of three photos, taken from far to near, each one very clear — from this alone one could tell that Qian Cheng was a person with very steady hands.

Inside the box in the photos, two cryopreservation bags were placed side by side.

Inside the transparent bags was a pale red liquid — at first glance, it appeared to be blood.

But upon closer inspection, one would notice the color was lighter than blood.

By now the two nurses could no longer stand.

They had clearly heard Yu Dazhang's phone conversation just now.

Although they couldn't hear what the other party was saying, just the words coming out of Yu Dazhang's mouth were enough to terrify them.

"Do you recognize this?"

Yu Dazhang walked up to them, held his phone level, screen facing them.

Under their horrified gazes, Yu Dazhang swiped the screen once and switched to a photo taken from a closer angle.

The rest room was so quiet that only their rapid breathing could be heard.

Then, the sound of flowing water rang out.

What smell is that?

Yu Dazhang's sense of smell was far keener than an ordinary person's, and he quickly identified that this fishy, acrid smell was coming from the two people opposite him.

Damn, they pissed themselves from fear!

Weren't you two being all tough? How come the moment it's your own turn you get this cowardly.

"Speak!" Yu Dazhang suddenly roared.

That shout made the two nurses tremble all over. They raised their heads to look at Yu Dazhang, their eyes filled with dread and panic.

"I, I-I-I..."

The nurse who had reported the case earlier spoke haltingly, but never managed to get the second half of her sentence out.

The other nurse said, trembling:

"I-if I tell the truth, c-can I get... can I get leniency?"

Clearly, this nurse's mental fortitude was far weaker than the one beside her.

At this moment, she had already mentally collapsed.

"Of course." Yu Dazhang answered crisply:

"As long as you cooperate, it counts as you coming forward voluntarily."

At a time like this, what the other party needed was a reason to confess — or rather, a little psychological comfort.

Not much was needed; just one word of encouragement would make her trust you completely.

"Alright, I'll talk."

That nurse's emotions calmed slightly, and her eyes no longer looked as desperate as before. She took a deep breath, then said slowly:

"What's in the photos is... human metabolic stem cells."

Dodging the heavy stuff and going for the light — still playing tricks... Yu Dazhang quickly formed a judgment in his mind.

Before asking the question, he had already known they were stem cells; he didn't think the addition of the word "metabolic" made any difference.

"Why only target children?"

"This..." Her eyes darted away as she stammered her reply:

"Because... real spinal cord stem cells are all extracted from infants' bodies."

Even saying something like this made her feel she was no longer human.

That's right — anyone capable of doing something like this no longer deserves to be called human. She knew it in her heart, yet she still did it.

Even if she hadn't done it with her own hands, she had helped indirectly.

"The purpose?" Yu Dazhang continued asking.

The nurse answered in a trembling voice:

"L-long... longevity."

Yu Dazhang:????

What did I just hear?

In today's scientifically advanced society, there are still people who believe in this.

Playing some fantasy nonsense on me!

"Get specific." Yu Dazhang stared at the nurse and said coldly:

"Stop talking nonsense and say something I can understand."

"It's immortality." That nurse looked quite wronged; she frowned and explained:

"Stem cells are also called universal cells, and the spinal cord stem cells within them can replace the human body's metabolism." "The reason humans age is because the body is constantly undergoing metabolism."

"Ordinary stem cells can participate in metabolism, while spinal cord stem cells can completely renew and replace old cells."

She stopped speaking here, seeming to feel her words were a bit awkward.

After quickly choosing her words, she continued:

"Simply put, true spinal cord stem cells can differentiate into all types of cells and replace them."

"Under continuous injection, aging will be delayed to the maximum extent; calling it immortality is not an exaggeration."

This time Yu Dazhang understood.

This is truly devoid of all conscience!

Isn't this just extending one's life by using other people's lives?

What's the difference from the damn Star-Sucking Divine Art?

This also reminded him of a news story from the future.

Please... you.... collect 6... 9... book.... please....!

It wasn't domestic.

Many friends should know about Rose Island, right?

When this news first broke, the vast majority of people thought it was about going up there to play with women.

If it were truly that, it wouldn't have become global news.

That was just the shallowest, shallowest, shallowest layer.

Hawking went up there~

He struggled just to move his fingers; what could he play with up there?

Actually, those who went up there had their hearts replaced, livers replaced, lungs replaced, blood replaced, cells replaced...

Using those children's blood and cells.

And also, making those girls give birth to a fetus that could continuously provide blood and cells for them.

Hawking got ALS at twenty-one and lived to be seventy-six...

The vast majority of healthy people didn't live as long as him.

Don't ask.

If you ask, the answer is a positive mindset and an optimistic attitude toward life.

You think the rich stay healthy by sleeping early and rising early, traveling to relax, eating vegetarian therapy...

I'll give you two words: childish!

There's a saying popular in the circle of the rich.

"Wealth and rank cannot corrupt me," then what use is this wealth and rank to me?

When money reaches a certain amount, it becomes just a string of numbers.

At that time, one naturally thinks of turning that string of numbers into actual lifespan.

"Why not give those children anesthesia?" When Yu Dazhang asked this question, his face looked very ugly.

He dared not imagine what those children had experienced.

Some things cannot be empathized with.

True pain can only be felt through personal experience.

"This..." That nurse opened her mouth, and after a moment, lowered her head:

"I don't know."

Yu Dazhang glanced at the other nurse and found she had also lowered her head.

"Based on your understanding of this matter, you wouldn't know?" Yu Dazhang stared at her tightly with both eyes:

"Even if you don't say it, I can find out; don't say I didn't give you a chance when that time comes."

Zhang Sen was standing beside him at this moment; after hearing this, he gently tapped his hand.

Yu Dazhang knew this was reminding him not to go too far.

His words just now already carried a threatening tone; to put it bluntly, it was almost like torture.

But at this moment, Yu Dazhang couldn't care less about that; there were some things he had to know in advance.

"I, I'll say." That nurse felt somewhat guilty, dared not look at him, and spoke in a low voice:

"Renin, this is also a drug that can delay aging."

"When collecting spinal cord, if the child is conscious, fear will be produced, and the body will secrete renin."

"The spinal cord collected at this time is the best, and it can also conveniently..."

Her voice grew smaller and smaller, until finally she couldn't even finish speaking herself.

Hell is empty, and all the devils are here on earth... Yu Dazhang slapped her face.

The crisp "Smack!" sound startled Zhang Sen beside him.

Before he could stop him, Yu Dazhang slapped the other nurse as well.

The two nurses covered their cheeks, looking at him in disbelief.

Yu Dazhang's eyes bulged with rage, his teeth grinding "Creak, creak."

Damn it, I can't hold back!

What should I do if I want to kill someone?
