......

The air in the corridor seemed to freeze.

The short female researcher stood frozen at the corner entrance, watching in horror as Bishon choked her companion by the neck.

Ah ah ah ah ah!

The researcher, held in Bishchen's hand, turned red in the face and was on the verge of suffocation.

Bishon stared at his face, which resembled Gao Tian's, his heart filled with turmoil, and his fingers involuntarily loosened their grip slightly.

Don't actually strangle him to death.

The researcher caught his breath a little.

In that split second between life and death, he did not struggle or try to call for help. Instead, he patted Bishen's hand with difficulty and calmly gestured to Bishen.

Although they don't know who Bishen is, based on the principle that enemies are friends among space pirates, shall they cooperate?

At the same time, Qin Qin's expression changed as she stood frozen at the door.

She strode abruptly around the corner, grabbing Bi Shen's hand that was choking Gao Xing: "Let go! Quick! If you want to live, listen to us!"

Bishen did not attack her.

These two researchers were behaving very strangely; they were speaking human language.

Normally, they are Orion's subordinates and would not favor the invaders.

Unless they were also captured.

Pirates' enemies are their friends. Whoever they are, at least for now, they share a common enemy.

"Human?" Bi Shen looked at Qin Qin, then at Gao Xing, and released his grip on Gao Xing's neck.

"Cough cough cough—!" Gao Xing slid down the wall, bent over, coughed violently, and gasped for breath.

But he didn't make any extra noise. After the uncontrollable coughing subsided, he simply covered his neck, but his eyes were unusually sharp as he looked at Bishen.

"Are you a regular soldier captured by Orion?" He scrutinized Bishon.

Bishen apologized to him.

"Those space pirates are in! Come with me! Quick!" Without pausing, Qin Qin grabbed Bi Shen and turned to run into the depths of the corridor.

"Come on over here, we can talk about the rest later." Gao Xing called out and turned to follow Qin Qin.

Without any hesitation, Bishen quickly followed in their footsteps.

Judging from Gao Xing's performance, he may have been a human soldier before.

Human soldiers can be trusted.

Along the way, Bi Shen watched as Gao Xing and Qin Qin carefully chose their routes to avoid being monitored.

They must have been here for a long time and know the layout of the place by heart.

This situation is also incomprehensible.

It's getting weirder and weirder. There are actually two humans who have been staying in Orion's lair for a long time, and one of them looks so much like Gao Tian.

What's wrong with him? Did Orion discover the existence of humans a long time ago?

That shouldn't be the case. If Orion had discovered the existence of humans long ago, why didn't he invade them?

At the end of the corridor, Qinqin quickly entered the password and pushed open a heavy, airtight door.

This is a laboratory filled with various instruments, resembling a pharmaceutical laboratory, with bright medical-grade shadowless lights, as well as capsule chambers, incubators, microscopes, beakers, test tubes, and reagents.

Qin Qin entered the room with a clear goal in mind and rushed towards a large capsule-shaped cylindrical experimental chamber in the corner of the laboratory.

Qinqin opened the door of the experimental chamber and said to Shen, "Quick, quick! Go in and lie down, close your eyes and don't make a sound, pretend to be a corpse!"

Gao Xing had caught his breath and rushed to the control panel next to him, quickly typing a series of commands on the screen.

Light green nutrient solution instantly appeared inside the experimental chamber, simulating the environment of a hibernation chamber.

Bishen understood what they meant.

The idea was to let him lie down inside to fool the pursuers.

He took a second to assess the current situation.

If there's a problem with these nutrient solutions, and he just lies there, then gets cornered by pursuers, and if these two researchers betray him, then he'll truly be at their mercy.

However, these two researchers were too unusual. One of them even looked so much like Gao Tian, ​​it was obvious to the naked eye that they were related by blood. He was willing to believe them and take a gamble.

Without a word, Bi Shen quickly ducked into the cold experimental chamber and lay down.

He sank into the cold nutrient solution, closed his eyes, held his breath, and suppressed all his vital signs to the lowest possible level, just like a truly unconscious experimental subject.

The light green nutrient solution quickly enveloped him, blurring his outline.

Qin Qin slammed the hatch of the experimental chamber shut with a loud "snap," and the heavy latches closed automatically, then the chamber stood upright.

Gao Xing also completed the operation, and a green "Experiment in Progress" indicator light lit up on the outside of the experimental chamber, and data began to scroll on the screen.

Gao Xing and Qin Qin hid Bi Shen well, pretending that he was a test subject in an experiment.

Then Gao Xing quickly adjusted his protective suit, put on the hat, and put on the protective mask to cover the finger marks on his neck from being pinched.

Qin Qin quickly tidied her messy hair and uniform, and took a deep breath.

Three, two, one, the Best Actress is online.

As if nothing had happened.

calm.

She put on her glasses, picked up a notebook from the side, and began to read and take notes.

Outside the door, a cacophony of heavy footsteps, accompanied by the clanging of weapons, approached from afar.

With a "whoosh," the airtight door of the laboratory opened, and several burly female insects dressed in armor and carrying weapons rushed in.

The leader, a man with a fierce face, swept his eyes across the laboratory: "Search separately!"

Many armed female insects stormed into the laboratory.

"Hey! Pharmacist!" the pursuer leader yelled gruffly at Qin Qin and Gao Xing, "Did you see a green-eyed guy with a missing hand run in?!"

Three, two, one, action!

Qin Qin suddenly turned around.

Facing this group of fierce-looking pirates, she was not afraid at all. Instead, she stepped forward, her icy calm instantly turning into a mixture of impatience and anger at being disturbed, her brows furrowed and eyes wide open!

She was much shorter than the pirate captain, but she was in no way inferior in terms of imposing presence. She walked over and "smack!" slammed the notebook she was holding onto the captain's head. Then, while he was still stunned, she pointed at his nose and started yelling:

"Are you out of your mind?! You're arresting a fugitive in a lab?! Don't you know pharmaceutical labs need a sterile, dust-free environment?! You just barged in like that, are you out of your mind?! Is anyone else coming in? Are all those guards outside just there to vent their anger?!"

"This is a core drug lab! A top-secret project is underway! Not even a fly can get in! If you come in, this entire lab will probably be destroyed, and all my hard work these past few days will be wasted! The mission Orion gave me is completely off! I'll report this immediately!!! Let's see how many heads you have to chop off!!!"

"You're so arrogant, I thought you were going to rebel!! If Orion punishes me, I'll make sure you don't get away with it!!! Get out!!! Get out!!!!"

She launched into a scathing rebuke without any hesitation, displaying great authority.

The pirate captain was stunned by her shout and subconsciously took a step back, his fierce aura instantly subsided.

He knew the pharmacist's temper; he wouldn't even give their boss any face normally.

Furthermore, the pharmacist has been on the island for nearly twenty years, and doesn't seem to be colluding with the fugitive.

He took another half step back, his eyes darting nervously over the high-tech-looking instruments...

I've heard that pharmaceutical labs are very strict...

Will it really be destroyed?

The screen was flashing with complex data streams, making it seem like an experiment was being conducted. The guards outside had been on duty the whole time. The pharmacist had a short temper... There really wasn't anything unusual, and it didn't look like someone had broken in.

The alarm is outside, so the fugitive should be outside too.

The laboratory has an independent security system; unauthorized intrusion triggered the alarm.

Good heavens, if all the equipment in this lab really needs to be replaced, will his salary be deducted for a hundred years to come?

The pirate captain was stunned by Qin Qin's imposing manner, especially by the statement that "the laboratory requires a sterile and dust-free environment, and all the equipment in this laboratory will be destroyed." It was like a bucket of ice water being poured over his head, instantly cooling his enthusiasm.

Faced with the pharmacist's rage, he swallowed hard and began to have second thoughts.

Damn it... what bad luck!

The pirate captain cursed under his breath, then forced a smile and said, "Pharmacist, please don't be angry. We're sorry for our rudeness. We didn't realize you were conducting an experiment. We're just uncultured bumpkins who don't understand laboratory conditions. We really didn't mean to offend you. We'll leave right away."

He quickly waved to his pirate crew, "Retreat! Keep your eyes peeled! Search elsewhere!"

The space pirates who came in like a tide also retreated like a tide.

As the pirate leader left, he continued to put on a fawning smile: "Master Apothecary, it's just our duty. Please don't take offense. You're busy, you're busy, don't worry about us. We're so sorry, we'll be leaving right away."

He led his men out of the lab, bowing and scraping with obsequious smiles while inwardly cursing.

The airtight door closed behind them again, and then the noisy footsteps hurriedly faded away.

The laboratory returned to its previous silence.

Gao Xing and Qin Qin relaxed their tense bodies slightly.

They exchanged a glance, waited a while, and then believed that they had really left.

Qinqin immediately rushed to the control panel of the experimental chamber!

He checked the screen again to make sure he wasn't mistaken, then his fingers flew across the screen, immediately shutting down the simulated low-temperature fog system and the scanning beam, and unlocking the hatch!

The heavy experimental chamber lid opened with a hiss, releasing a cloud of low-temperature mist.

Bishen opened his eyes and sat up in the cold experimental chamber.

Qinqin reached out to pull him up, but seeing how weak she was, Bi Shen politely declined to help her and turned over on his own.

Standing on the laboratory floor, with nutrient solution still dripping from my body, I made a round of inspections.

Feeling that there was no problem nearby and the pursuers had really left, Bi Shen nodded to Gao Xing and Qin Qin: "We are extremely grateful. Our Mantis Clan will remember this kindness. If you two ever need our help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask. We will go through fire and water for you, even at the cost of our lives."

Qinqin hurriedly helped him wipe the nutrient solution off his body.

"Oh, none of that's urgent. Little brother... sister... no... brother..." She tried several different terms of address, but none of them felt quite right, and she was rambling on and on. So she had to use the most direct method:

"Do you know you're pregnant?"
