Chapter 184 Slaughtering Heyi

"Come in," Vivian said.

In the Special Operations Department, knocking on the door is a necessary courtesy, unless the door is open.

After all, the tasks performed by everyone here are often crucial and require a high degree of secrecy. If too many people learn about a task, it could bring unexpected dangers.

Therefore, the rule of knocking before entering has gradually become a tacitly understood good habit, in order to ensure the safety and smooth progress of work to the greatest extent.

Caiyi gently pushed open the door and strode inside.

She was very familiar with the place, and walked naturally and skillfully to the guest table area, where she sat down comfortably.

Immediately afterwards, she picked up a bag of potato chips from the table, tore open the packaging without hesitation, and started eating.

She crossed her legs, leaned back comfortably on the soft sofa, and casually asked while eating potato chips, "Any new developments with Tu Heyi lately?"

Seeing this, Vivian, who was standing to the side, walked over, grabbed a bag of potato chips, sat on the sofa, and opened it like Caiyi.

With potato chips in her mouth, she mumbled, "Nothing special. I think he's probably just a hopeless romantic!"

Upon hearing this, Cai Yi looked puzzled, his eyes widened, and his mouth slightly open, as if he wanted to say something but didn't know where to begin. He could only utter a long question: "Are you talking about Tu Heyi?"

Seeing Cai Yi's bewildered expression, Vivian smiled and patiently explained, "Here's what happened. Xiao Baihua is really something! She painted a huge picture for Tu Heyi, saying..."

At this point, Vivi paused for a moment, deliberately keeping everyone in suspense.

Caiyi was getting a little anxious from her actions and hurriedly urged, "Hey, stop being so mysterious and just tell us already!"

Vivian then slowly continued, "She said that if Tu Heyi could eliminate incurable diseases from the world, she would consider dating him."

After saying that, Vivian herself felt it was a bit absurd and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Upon hearing this, Cai Yi couldn't help but twitch his lips a few times, asking incredulously, "No way? He actually believed it?"

You should know that Tu Heyi is the smartest among the main characters who are imprisoned!

Caiyi couldn't understand how someone as intelligent as him could so easily believe such outrageous nonsense.

After all, there are many kinds of diseases in the world, and they are constantly emerging and mutating. It is simply a pipe dream to completely eradicate incurable diseases!

With the continuous advancement of science and technology, various diseases in human society are gradually being overcome one by one.

However, just when people think they have defeated the disease, new diseases always follow.

Like the influenza-like viruses that have previously ravaged the world, it belongs to a completely new type of virus, and there has never been any record of it in the world before.

At this moment, Vivian was watching Caiyi's expression closely, and then gestured for her to log into the home network to search for information about Tu Heyi.

Cai Yi followed his advice and quickly found Tu Heyi's personal information.

However, aside from the crimes he had committed, the rest of the list consisted of a dazzling array of technical terms, awards, and achievements.

Caiyi couldn't possibly understand the meaning of this complex content, but even a cursory glance was enough to make him realize that it seemed quite remarkable.

Upon seeing this, Caiyi's face revealed a strange, indescribable expression.

At that moment, Vivian's next words made her expression even more bizarre.

"His family is currently seriously considering whether to release him from prison."

Vivian's words were like a bombshell, creating a huge uproar in Cai Yi's heart.

But after calming down a bit, Caiyi thought about it carefully and felt that this matter seemed to be normal.

After all, Tu Heyi's most serious crime was attempting to sabotage the development of a new virus vaccine.

Although his plot ultimately failed, his actions were undoubtedly extremely heinous, which is why he is still in prison.

Moreover, unlike other protagonists who are criminals burdened with countless crimes and even have blood on their hands, Tu Heyi has never directly killed anyone.

In most cases, so-called school bullying is actually caused by the other party's wishful thinking.

They bullied the weak based on their own subjective will, not on Tu Heyi's orders; he simply ignored what others did.

Nowadays, Tu Heyi spends a lot of time every day memorizing values, and at the same time, he buries himself in the Special Affairs Department's laboratory, studying those difficult and complicated diseases that have not yet been solved.

He was determined to be released from prison as soon as possible, so he worked and studied desperately.

The reason he was in prison for this period of time was because he suddenly collapsed while working in the laboratory.

The senior colleagues in the lab are kind-hearted, and they've seen him be honest and hardworking over the past few years, plus he is indeed talented.

They all pleaded for him, hoping to release him temporarily and arrange for someone to supervise him.

Cai Yi stroked his chin thoughtfully, then suddenly asked, "Is the person in charge of watching over him a white lotus flower?"

Otherwise, why would Vivian have told her that Xiao Baihua had once made empty promises to Tu Heyi?

Hearing this, Vivian felt a little embarrassed and quickly explained, "It's mainly because ordinary people might have difficulty keeping an eye on him, and my family is also worried that if he can't see Xiao Baihua for a long time, he might cause some trouble."

"Therefore, after weighing the options, this decision was made. Moreover, his fainting spell is actually intricately linked to Xiao Baihua..."

He's been preoccupied with Xiao Baihua lately, and has been somewhat distracted in the lab. So his family lied to him, saying that Xiao Baihua has contracted a rare disease, which is why they haven't been able to video call him recently.

Upon hearing this, he worked tirelessly in the lab, finally curing the disease his family had mentioned. He then collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

Vivian added, "The family's intention is for you to ask her, not for you to."

After all, although Tu Heyi has the protagonist's halo, not everyone likes such a confident person.

Caiyi smiled at her: "But you're all so sure that if I ask her, she won't refuse, right?"

"Let me put it this way: even if I don't ask, as long as her family asks, she will agree to bring Tu Heyi along."

"Because... she has already joined the Special Operations Department."
