"Eh?!"

Only then did Sanhua Limi notice that she, who had just come down from the operating table, was now naked.

"You are not allowed to peek!"

Sanhua Reiya hid behind the curtain of the laboratory, changing clothes while shouting to Nan Tianren on the other side of the curtain.

"Do I need to peek? I've even played with your heart in my hands."

Nan Tianren complained while drinking Coke.

"That's different!"

Hearing Nan Tianren's words, Sanhua Reiya shouted even more shyly behind the curtain.

Five minutes later, after changing her clothes, Sanhua Reiya walked out from behind the curtain.

"There is a pleasant fragrance on this dress."

Sanka Reiya grabbed the collar and sniffed and said.

"Nice scent? Oh, now I remember, I wore this dress when I was gardening yesterday. I guess it got stained with some pollen from the Sun Staircase Flower by accident."

Nan Tianren said after a brief thought.

"I'm a little hungry after smelling this..."

Sanhua Limi followed the scent of the sun-step flower all the way to the greenhouse where Nandina Ren grew the sun-step flower.

"hungry?"

Following behind Sanka Reiya, Nan Tianren also wanted to know what Sanka Reiya in zombie form would eat when he was hungry.

Then Nan Tianren saw Sanhua Limi grab a blooming sun-step flower and bite it.

"My Sun Stairs Flower!!!!"

Seeing the flower fields he had worked so hard to plant destroyed, Nan Tianren knelt on the ground and cried out in painstaking pains.

Fortunately, after eating three Sun Stairs Flowers, Sanhua Reiya stopped what he was doing immediately.

“Phew~ Fortunately, fortunately, there are only three strains, which is barely acceptable.”

Nan Tianren patted his chest, and after calming down, he stood up again.

"Hey~ Reiya, can you be full just by eating flowers?"

Nan Tianren then asked Sanhua Limi.

"Hmm~ It seems like this now. After I ate a few flowers, I didn't feel hungry anymore."

Sanka Reiya replied while touching her belly.

"Then you are quite easy to support..."

Before Nan Tianren finished speaking, Sanhua Limi's body suddenly fell straight down.

"Hey! What's wrong with you?"

Nan Tianren hurried forward and began to check Sanhua Limi's body.

"It was becoming increasingly difficult to move my body, as if it had frozen in place."

Sanka Reiya replied with some unclear pronunciation.

"So it's rigor mortis..."

Nan Tianren also came to the answer after examining Sanhua Limi's body.

"Zombie...?"

Sanka Reiya asked with some confusion.

"Rigor mortis refers to the phenomenon that muscles gradually become stiff and rigid, slightly contracting and fixing the joints after a period of time after death. It usually occurs gradually within one to three hours after death and spreads to the whole body after four to six hours. Now that I think about it, it is indeed about time.

It's not a big problem. Rigor mortis will gradually ease after 24 hours and will completely disappear after about three days. I'll carry you back to bed to rest."

After carrying Sanhua Reiya's body back to the bed in the laboratory, Nan Tianren looked at Sanhua Reiya's sleeping face and thought:

"Although Sanka Reiya still retains her consciousness, she is just a corpse after all. If left alone, her body will probably slowly decay. To be on the safe side, it is better to apply some formalin on her body."

At the same time, in the Sanhua family's mansion.

Sanka Danichiro was soaking in the bathtub in a daze, and floating on the water were photos of Sanka Reiya.

"husband!"

Sanka Reiya's stepmother, Sanka Aria, pushed open the bathroom door and shouted at Sanka Danichiro:

"I heard that Sanka Reiya ran away from home? What on earth is going on?!"

"She is dead, yet still alive..."

Sankadanichiro replied in confusion.

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

Sanka Aria couldn't understand Sanka Danichiro's words at all:

"Anyway, do you know where Sanka Reiya is now?"

"The young lady is most likely with Nan Tianren, the president of Umbrella Pharmaceuticals."

The butler at the bathroom door replied on behalf of Sankadanichiro.

"The president of Umbrella Pharmaceuticals—Nantianren?"

Sanhua Aria repeated.

"That's right! Nan Tianren! It's him!"

Hearing Nan Tianren's name, Sanhua Danichiro suddenly perked up and stood up from the bathtub:

"It was that liar who bewitched the naive Reiya! He was the one who caused the current situation! Nan Tianren! Just wait for me! Reiya! I will save you from her! I will use my love to purify your body and soul again!

Reiya! Do you think you are free? No! That is just false freedom! Maybe you think I am too strict, but don't think you can be free just by escaping from me! You are wrong! Come back! Reiya! Let me tell you! What is real freedom! "

On the other side, downstairs in the Nantian Building, a man with glasses and wearing a white suit suddenly rang the doorbell of the building.

"What do you find me for?"

Soon, Nan Tianren ran all the way downstairs, pushed open the door, and asked the other party.

"You are the president of Umbrella Pharmaceuticals, Mr. Nan Tianren, right? I am the head of the Asian Management Association of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. You can call me Tosaki Yu."

The man in a white suit and glasses handed over a business card and an ID from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and introduced himself.

"Wait a minute! What are demihumans? And what does the Demihuman Management Association do?"

Nan Tianren took the business card and ID, looked at them carefully and asked the other party.

"Demihumans are a new species that look similar to humans, but will never die except from old age. Our Demihuman Management Association is an official management organization for demihumans organized by the government."

Tosaki Yuu then began to explain.

"Oh, I understand. But what does the Demihuman Management Association want from me? I'm not a demihuman."

Nan Tianren took the other party's business card, returned the ID to the other party and continued to ask.

"Of course I know you're not a demi-human, but according to what we at the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare know, your umbrella pharmaceutical company doesn't seem to have any drugs on the market right now? What's wrong? Don't you like it?"

"Hey! You came all the way here, aren't you just here to mock me?"

Nan Tianren looked at Tosaki You's annoying face and asked him back impatiently.

"I mean, your company's development of new drugs will probably require the use of sub-humans, right?"

"What do you mean?"

Nan Tianren frowned.

"Once a demihuman is killed, he will quickly revive within a few seconds. In other words, demihumans, whose body structures are exactly the same as humans, are the most perfect test subjects for clinical trials."

Tosaki Yu finally told the purpose of his trip.

"I understand what you mean. Name a price! Since a high-ranking official from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare would come to me, it means that this service is definitely not free!"

"Mr. Nan Tianren is indeed a smart man! One billion yen! Just one billion yen! You can get a demi-human for one month!"

“It’s really expensive, but it’s definitely worth it!”

Deal done!

Two and a half hours later, in the laboratory of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare's Subhuman Research Center.

A demihuman covered in bandages was fixed to the table in the laboratory.

"Is this the demi-human?"

Nan Tianren gently stroked the other person's face with his index finger:

"I heard that even if you were killed, you would be resurrected immediately. I wonder if it's true."

Nan Tianren said as he pulled an automatic pistol from his pocket, pointed it at the sub-human's head, and shot it in the head.

Then, some invisible black particles floated out from the demi-human's body, healing the broken wounds bit by bit.

In less than two and a half seconds, the demi-human's body had returned to its original state.

"It's really shocking, just like what that guy named Tozaki Yu said, he was resurrected in just a few seconds, and all the data of his body is exactly the same as before he died. There is no doubt that you are indeed the most perfect drug tester in the world!"

After Nan Tianren finished speaking, he pulled out a tube of green potion from his pocket. It was different from the potion he had fed to Sanhua Miri before, which was made from mutant plants that could heal wounds, strengthen the body, and even resurrect the dead.

This tube of medicine is made from the original plant of the authentic T virus. Once injected into the human body, it can transform it into a zombie without reason that only knows how to indiscriminately attack living people.

What Nan Tianren has to do now is to continuously improve the medicine until he makes a model that can be used to manufacture the [Lick Eater].

“This is the first experiment!”

After Nan Tianren finished speaking, he injected the medicine directly into the sub-human's carotid artery.

Because the injected dose was high enough, after twenty-five minutes, the sub-human's skin began to rot gradually, a calcification layer appeared, and the blood coagulated on the surface of the skin, and finally it turned into an irrational zombie.

"Whoo~"

Nan Tianren, who had spent 25 minutes in anxiety, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this:

"Although I failed to turn you into a Licker, fortunately you turned into a normal zombie instead of being resurrected directly after being infected. This shows that those infected with the T virus are just sick living people, not dead corpses."
