Chapter 64 Signs of Losing Control
Upon hearing these words, Su Man's mind went blank, as if she had been struck by lightning.
She was terrified, so she took a half step back, staring at Shen Fei in disbelief.
"Are you crazy? You want to lock yourself up and study yourself?"
Her voice was loud because she was shocked; she couldn't understand the plan at all; it was too crazy.
He should be high above others, not build a cage for himself.
"I'm not crazy, Su Man."
Shen Fei's tone remained calm. He took a step forward, grabbed her cold hand, and pulled her into his arms.
The sea breeze was blowing, messing up her hair.
"You only think this ability is amazing, but you don't see how dangerous it is."
Shen Fei's voice rang in her ear, low but clear.
"After absorbing the dragon bone, this ability has grown very quickly, and I don't know what will happen. Right now, I can sense what a fish halfway around the world is thinking. What about next time? Will I be able to hear the voices of every marine creature in the world? Will my brain be overwhelmed by all that chaotic noise?"
Su Man's body froze instantly.
She had never thought about this question.
She only saw how amazing this ability was, but she didn't think about what price the person who possessed it would have to pay.
Shen Fei then explained:
"This rescue center," he hugged Su Man tightly, letting her feel his heartbeat, "is a disguise, and also a firewall. I'm going to bring the smartest people in the world here, use the best equipment, pretend to study other marine life, but actually study the changes in my body."
He added, "I need to know where its limits are, what the principles are. I must learn how to coexist with it, or even... control it, before it completely spirals out of control."
After he said those words, Su Man understood, and she was no longer confused or afraid.
She realized that he wasn't trying to give up on himself and lock himself away; he actually wanted to save her.
He wasn't building a cage for himself; he was building the strongest fortress for their future.
Su Man stopped trembling, and she hugged Shen Fei tightly, burying her face in his chest.
"I see."
Her voice was muffled.
"Don't be afraid," Shen Fei said, patting her back. "This cage is very pretty, isn't it? I'll give it to you."
The atmosphere in the restaurant was a little strange the next morning.
Pete and Zhang Xin both felt that the boss and Miss Su Man were acting a bit strange.
They are still very close, but it just doesn't feel the same as before; there's an indescribable feeling about it.
Just then, David Murray walked in.
He looked tired and had dark circles under his eyes, but his eyes were bright and he seemed excited.
"teacher!"
He forgot to greet them first, walked directly to the table, and handed a tablet computer to Shen Fei.
"Professor Douglas has agreed to let Zhou Fei come and take a look. He wants to see for himself the seaweed cultivation environment we set up for his grandson."
"Furthermore, Dr. Hannah Schmidt agreed!"
Pete was delighted, and he clapped his hands:
"That's great! That woman hasn't left the lab in three years, David, how did you get her to agree?"
David's expression turned a little strange.
"She said she could come, but she had one condition."
"What are the conditions? Is it money?"
Zhang Xin asked.
“No,” David shook his head. “She said she has no demands for money or treatment. Her only condition is that while working here, she must use the estate owner’s kitchen alone every night after midnight until four in the morning. And no one can disturb her or ask what she is doing.”
This request stunned everyone in the restaurant.
Pete scratched his head, completely bewildered:
"Is this guy crazy? What's he doing in the kitchen in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"
James adjusted his glasses and added:
"Sir, the main kitchen is the heart of our catering system, and security is extremely important. Allowing a stranger to be alone inside in the middle of the night..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was clear.
"Say yes."
Shen Fei didn't even look up, cutting the fried eggs on his plate, and said calmly.
He added:
"Tell her that, let alone a kitchen, I can make it happen even if she wants to build a Michelin-starred restaurant in her lab."
This made David very happy.
That's exactly the kind of attitude he wants from his boss—not caring about the process, just the result, and absolutely supporting him.
"I understand, sir!"
Just as David was about to leave, suddenly, an alarm sounded outside, along with the sound of breaking glass.
Kyle's voice came through James's walkie-talkie; he said nervously:
"Level One Alert! Level One Alert! The laboratory animal 'Miracle' has escaped and is rushing towards the main house! Repeat, it has breached three security measures!"
Everyone immediately stood up and ran out of the restaurant.
There, the little seal named "Miracle" was running around on the lawn.
It is very fat, but it runs very fast.
It broke a light.
Then it went to rub against the azaleas.
James really liked those azaleas.
Pete was reaching out his arms, trying to carefully stop it, but "Miracle" seemed particularly agitated. It nimbly turned around, dodged Pete, and rolled towards the other side of the rose garden.
James is usually very calm, but when he saw that his favorite flowers were about to be destroyed, his face turned pale and he stomped his feet in frustration.
"Quick! Stop it! Don't let it get near my 'Queen Elizabeth'!"
Kyle rushed over with two security guards, trying to stop it with a special soft net, but "Miracle" had a strange force with each roll, easily escaping from the net.
"What happened?"
Shen Fei frowned. "Its emotions are very unstable."
However, Shen Fei did not panic like the others.
He just smiled and walked over.
He didn't shout, nor did he try to stop it like Pete did.
He stopped a few meters away from the "miracle," then crouched down and made a few soft, baby seal calls.
The "miracle" that was going crazy suddenly stopped.
It stopped moving, its round, black eyes staring at Shen Fei. It tilted its head slightly, and the madness in its eyes slowly faded.
A few seconds later, something incredible happened.
Suddenly, "Miracle" changed direction, no longer looking at the roses, but instead twisting its fat body and quickly rolling towards Shen Fei.
It stopped at Shen Fei's feet, nuzzled his trouser leg with its head, and made a purring sound in its throat, sounding very content.
The entire courtyard fell silent instantly.
Pete stood there with his mouth agape, unsure of what to do.
James breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his roses were alright.
Kyle put down the walkie-talkie and looked at his boss with awe in his eyes.
Shen Fei chuckled and patted "Miracle's" slippery head, then stood up and, carrying it, slowly led it back to the rehabilitation pool.
"Miracle" obediently jumped into the water and stuck its head out, looking at Shen Fei with its big, watery eyes.
Su Man walked to Shen Fei's side and asked softly:
"What happened to it just now?"
Shen Fei stopped smiling, and his eyes became very deep:
"I don't know. But when I was comforting it just now, I felt a kind of 'call' coming from the deep sea in its mind. It was very chaotic, full of hunger and violence."
He paused, gazing at the shimmering sea in the distance, and said softly:
"It seems I need to build my 'firewall' soon."
Su Man's heart tightened upon hearing this.
She thought, "So the seal's madness wasn't a coincidence. It must be a prelude to the information deluge that Shen Fei mentioned."
The warning he gave has come true.
