I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

The next moment, a blue substance condensed in Depp's hand, and a small piece of blue fluid struggled and rolled down to the table before quickly slipping into Depp's fingers.

"what!"

Dr. Dora covered her mouth, her face filled with disbelief.

She knew exactly what that thing had just flashed by.

Symbiote, an unknown blue symbiote!

And the man before them... seemed to have perfectly merged with that blue symbiote?

Dora looked up at Depp, her face full of shock.

In the laboratory, countless homeless people died after being forcibly fused with that black symbiote and failing.

To this day, Drake has not been able to find anyone who can accommodate a symbiote inside their body for more than ten minutes.

Furthermore, these experimental subjects all experienced a considerably painful process before their deaths.

Therefore, Dr. Dora believes that symbiotes and humans cannot truly merge and live in harmony.

The only purpose of continuing this experiment in the long run is to kill one homeless person after another.

This is also why Dr. Dora was unwilling to continue working for Drake.

She couldn't accept that Drake would disregard other people's lives in order to continue this futile experiment.

But now, a living, breathing perfect fusionist is right in front of him!

Dr. Dora immediately grabbed Depp's hands with both of them. The speed with which she did surprised even Depp.

Dr. Dora's obsessive research drive made her forget about the immediate crisis.

She looked up at Depp with eyes full of curiosity and a desire to explore.

Dr. Dora now even wants to throw Depp into the testing equipment immediately to test the changes in his body.

In a sense, Dr. Dora is now very attracted to Depp's body.

I'm so hungry!

Depp felt a little uneasy under Dr. Dora's gaze. He pulled his hand back and said, "So now you should understand what I am, why I know about the Life Foundation, and... my power."

Depp intended to demonstrate his power to Dr. Dora, but Dora was clearly more interested in other things.

"How did you merge with it?"

"Dora asked."

Well...

Depp recalled his first encounter with the Siren symbiote, saying, "I talked to her for a while, then kept her in a jar, and after a while I allowed her to enter my body."

"It's that simple?" Dora could hardly believe her ears.

If a simple chat could subdue the symbiote, why would Drake have been so obsessed with those inhumane experiments?

"Is that right?" Depp asked.

Just as Dora was wondering, a voice so charming that it made even a woman like her feel her bones melt suddenly reached her ears.

"Of course, that was my first meeting with Johnny Depp."

"This thing can talk?!" Dr. Dora was shocked again.

“Watch your words, little girl,” the siren symbiote said. “When I was at the height of my power in history, you weren’t even a cell in the universe!”

Dr. Dora was so choked that she momentarily forgot what she was going to say.

Depp glanced at the blackness outside the coffee shop and said, "Actually, symbiotes don't want their hosts to die. Rather than killing their hosts, symbiotes prefer to become long-term companions with their hosts."

“That’s right, that’s exactly what I think,” the siren symbiote said. “I just want to be with you for a long, long time. You really understand me.”

Depp ignored the siren symbiote and continued, "Dr. Dora, you must be wondering now why those homeless people who were parasitized died so quickly if the symbiote is as I described."

Dr. Dora nodded and said, "Yes, that's exactly what I've been thinking about."

Depp pointed to a homeless man lying on the ground outside the coffee shop and said, "Because they don't meet the conditions for symbiote parasitism. Those homeless people who live hand to mouth either have physical defects or hidden diseases due to their miserable lives, or they are mentally twisted and not normal."

"The symbiotes don't like this quality. They prefer a healthy and strong host to a homeless person."

"Because the homeless people have defective bodies or even internal organs, the symbiotes parasitizing their bodies begin to decay rapidly. This causes the symbiotes to become violent, causing the host's adrenaline to surge. During this stage, the symbiotes absorb nutrients from the host's body and then immediately escape from the body."

"Do you understand what I mean, Dr. Dora?"

Dora pondered for a moment and said, "So, if a person is very healthy and strong, then he can perfectly fuse with the symbiote?"

Depp nodded and said, "That's right, at least you won't be killed by the symbiote. On the contrary, the symbiote will enhance the host's strength and repair the host's physical damage."

"But......"

Before Dr. Dora could finish speaking, a blue blob emerged from Depp's hand and then plunged into his skin.

"What did you do to me?!"

Dr. Dora said, her eyes wide.

"Don't ask questions you already know the answer to, Dr. Dora. But you can rest assured, she told me that your body is perfectly healthy and there will be no rejection reaction."

"Now, please get into that black van obediently. Ms. Siren and I will protect you."

Depp got up and left Dr. Dora's table like an ordinary man who had failed to pick up a girl.

Dora remained seated, her expression somewhat blank.

Three minutes later, Dora picked up the coffee cup and drank the coffee in one gulp.

“This stuff tastes awful.” The Siren Symbiote’s voice echoed in Dr. Dora’s mind: “I suggest you drink tea next time. It’s not only better-tasting, but also healthier.”

"Thank you for your advice, but I should get going."

Dr. Dora picked up her handbag, got up and walked out of the coffee shop, heading straight for the black van with the license plate ending in 863.

"I hope you keep your word, Depp."

Back to the present, Dora, sandwiched between two burly men, stepped out of the van.

They had already arrived at the airport, and Dr. Dora didn't need to buy the tickets herself.

The Life Foundation has already bought him a first-class ticket.

Depp watched Dr. Dora enter the airport, closed his eyes, and began to sense his surroundings.

This was the first time Depp had used the life force from Aquaman.

The Life Force, like the Speed ​​Force, is one of the seven hidden forces in the DC Universe.

He represents creation and new life, while also enabling Depp to communicate with most living beings in the world.

Soon, Depp found Dr. Dora among the many potential targets.

"Dr. Dora, I need to know which flight you are about to take."

Dora paused for a moment, then realized that the voice was coming from Depp this time, not the blue symbiote.

Dr. Dora was initially confused because she didn't know how to respond to Depp. After all, if she suddenly said something cryptic, people would definitely be suspicious.

After a moment's thought, Dr. Dora began to formulate her response in her mind.

"I need to ask these guys, just a minute."

Dr. Dora then said to the two burly men supporting her, "I returned to the Life Foundation voluntarily, you don't need to be so nervous."

“It’s our duty, ma’am,” the Life Foundation agent said. “We’ll release you once we get there.”

Dr. Dora said with a helpless tone, "Alright, you old-fashioned folks. But before that, I think you should at least tell me which flight we need to take. My suggestion is the next one available so we can get back to the company faster."

The agent beside her nodded and said, "You're right, Ms. Dora. We are indeed on the next available flight, and boarding is scheduled to begin in fifteen minutes."

“No problem, I can’t wait to get back to the Foundation.”

Dora immediately responded to Depp in her mind: "They booked tickets to San Francisco in fifteen minutes. You'll be on the same plane as me, right?"

"of course."

To be honest, for Depp, the fastest way to get to San Francisco is not by plane, but by running there.

However, the system task does not specify a time limit or require speed; instead, it requires rescuing Venom without alerting anyone.

In this way, Dr. Dora becomes extremely important.

Not to mention, Dr. Dora even directly asked Depp if he would be on the same flight as her.

Clearly, this woman wanted him to be there to protect her.

Even with the symbiote parasitizing her, the young Dr. Dora still trusted humans more.

Depp opened his eyes and walked towards the ticket hall.

Dr. Dora and the Life Foundation staff had already entered the waiting room with their pre-purchased tickets.

Looking at the flight schedule, Depp immediately identified JetBlue flight B64033.

Depp went to the ticket window and asked, "Are there any tickets left for flight B64033 to San Francisco?"

The ticket seller looked at Depp with stars in her eyes, but still said regretfully, "I'm sorry, sir, there are no tickets left for flight B64033. You can transfer to another flight, such as B64017 tomorrow morning. Until then, you can stay at my house for the night."

"I don't think it's necessary; I'm in a very hurry."

Depp turned to the crowd behind him and shouted, "Does anyone have a ticket for flight B64033 to San Francisco in thirteen minutes? I'll pay a high price for it!"

However, no one responded to Depp's words.

Instead, more people began to look at Depp with strange eyes.

They felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this guy.

At that moment, a well-dressed man walked over.

The man was wearing a tailor-made suit, and his shirt was spotless and wrinkle-free.

The tie hung smoothly around his neck, and he wore glasses.

Upon arriving at the ticket window, the man opened his phone, handed his ID to the ticket seller, and said, "I need to collect my ticket. Yes, it's flight B64033 to San Francisco in twelve minutes."

The ticket seller glanced at Depp and then said, "Okay, sir, please wait a moment."

Soon, the ticket seller handed the man his identification and plane ticket.
