Chapter 629: I, Fat Tiger, Lack That Dedication

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

"Um..."

Yu Dazhang looked troubled, gazing at Ying Xuelian; he tried to speak several times but got stuck, seemingly not knowing how to begin.

Seeing his hesitant expression, Ying Xuelian smiled and said:

"Rest assured, I won't tell anyone about your situation. Today, we never discussed any topics related to experiments."

In the next moment, her expression suddenly turned serious:

"Take my advice: whatever we discussed today, you must keep buried in your heart. You cannot utter a single word to even your closest people."

"Unless you are prepared to sacrifice yourself."

After these words, silence fell over the room.

When the two of them talked, there was no need to be too explicit; revealing just a hint was enough for the other to understand.

The matter of his heightened senses had not been revealed by Yu Dazhang to anyone, at least not yet.

The reason was simple: he did not want to appear as an outlier.

Human nature cannot withstand scrutiny.

When someone knows you are different from others, what follows is rarely envy, but exclusion.

Having lived two lives, Yu Dazhang naturally understood this truth.

Let's put it this way: for normal human vision of 5.0, the distance at which details can be distinguished is five meters.

Therefore, the international standard for vision testing is five meters.

When a person appears who can see ten meters, twenty meters, or even farther, people will instinctively consider them a monster.

You can have good vision, but not to an absurd degree.

Otherwise, you will become an outlier.

This was the main reason Yu Dazhang had told no one.

On this point, he trusted no one, not even his own parents.

No one wants their parents to look at them as if they were a monster, so the best method is to let no one know.

Ying Xuelian had obviously thought of this as well.

However, what truly made Yu Dazhang fall silent was the phrase "sacrifice yourself" in her final sentence.

Just imagine: if the research team learned that someone had survived the side effects and lived successfully, what would happen?

You don't even need to think about it; various experts and professors, including academicians, would come to urge this person to cooperate with the experiment and continue this scientific achievement.

Do not harbor any false hopes; it would definitely happen this way.

For the development of medicine, for the benefit of humanity, even sacrificing one's life would be considered worthwhile.

Unfortunately...

Yu Dazhang did not have that level of dedication.

If someone came to persuade him to donate a kidney to save a life, he would definitely refuse in stern terms.

No reason; he just wouldn't donate.

The prerequisite for saving others is to protect oneself first.

Even a hypocritical saint understands this point.

But if this matter were leaked, it would escalate to the national level, and individual will would likely be ignored.

By then, no one could protect him, not even the National Security Agency.

After a long silence, Yu Dazhang let out a long breath:

"Fortunately, you are the only one who knows the inside story."

"Do you really want to silence me?" Ying Xuelian said with a smile:

"Now is a perfect opportunity. With your intelligence and professional skills, even if you killed me right here, you would have plenty of ways to escape."

Although he knew she was joking, Yu Dazhang still couldn't help but glare at her.

Did she really think all the police were fools?

No matter how high a person's intelligence, they cannot contend with the entire criminal investigation system.

Many investigative techniques have been passed down through generations; they simply cannot be solved just by having high intelligence.

Besides, even if one could deceive everyone, one could not deceive oneself.
