Chapter 405: Strange yet familiar memories
"What on earth is in there..."
Gu Nankai was also filled with mixed emotions. He couldn't hate at all, and he didn't know what reason to use to hate. His life was a life, and Pei Yi's life was also a life. They were all equal. There was nothing wrong with Ren Yiyuan saving him. He was silent for a long time, and in the end, he could only ask this question.
Ren Yiyuan did not answer, but Pei Yi spoke first.
"The research and development formula for the virus, and an antidote research and development formula that was not completely successful."
Gu Nankai was extremely shocked. At this moment he suddenly wanted to ask, with his ability, how did he bring out such an important thing back then? Was he cheating or something?
Ren Yiyuan seemed to have seen through his son's inner thoughts and quickly explained to him, "Back then, there was one of our people in Yamamoto Kita's R&D team. He knew your identity, so he tampered with your name tag. He bought you time to escape."
Gu Nankai was stunned, but he couldn't remember anything in his head. The feeling of powerlessness made him feel a little depressed. After several failed attempts to recall, he could only ask dryly: "Then he... is he still alive?"
"He died, but the two things he left behind are too important. Everyone who knew the formula died, and with the help of Master Huo Jiu, the Yamamoto organization suffered too much loss. So over the years, they dared only live in the Middle East. In terms of the development of the poison, they basically started from scratch, but after so many years, there was still no result. They had no choice but to start investigating who brought the formula out that year. They found out about you, and finding out about you means that our identities are exposed, and there is no need to hide our relationship."
Gu Nankai only felt that as these cognitions entered his mind, his head seemed to be about to explode. All this was too shocking for him. Over the years, he always felt that he was abandoned, but now he suddenly discovered that there were so many people around him who were silently protecting his safety.
"Over the years, although the teacher has left the police system, he has not slacked off and has been secretly investigating Yamamoto Kita's movements, including the incident three years ago. However, Yamamoto Kita has been hiding too far and too deep over the years, and our hands can't reach that far."
Pei Yi spoke again. When he faced Gu Nankai, when Gu Nankai saw the scar on his face, he couldn't imagine what kind of pain that was and how he had endured that pain.
"You were the ones who gave me the clues about those three children, right?"
At this moment, many things had become clear in Gu Nankai's mind. After a huge surprise, he asked while enduring the pain in his head.
Pei Yi nodded.
"Now that Zheng Mingrui and Zheng Lin are both dead, and Jin Chengdong has also disappeared recently, what is Yamamoto's ultimate goal?"
Thinking of this unfamiliar name, which was also his enemy's, Gu Nankai felt the blood in his body boiling.
"Yamamoto's greatest wish in this life is to fulfill the wishes of his grandfather and father, but now he can't wait any longer and wants to find the formula you brought out. His goal is only the formula of the poison. The formula of the antidote is meaningless to him, and Zhang Qingqing is his pawn."
Although he had already noticed it, Gu Nankai still felt his heart sink when someone actually mentioned Zhang Qingqing in front of him , and the last bit of hope in his heart disappeared completely.
"The real Zhang Qingqing died three years ago. The Zhang Qingqing who appears in front of you now is just a disguised person. Her real identity is the daughter of Yamamoto Kita. Ironically, Zhang Qingqing and she are sisters, which is why they look so similar. She did not live with Yamamoto Kita since she was a child, but grew up in the countryside. If Yamamoto Kita had not been in poor health, she would not have been recognized. She just went from being an abandoned piece to a chess piece."
Following Pei Yi's words, Gu Nankai seemed to have figured out the changes in Zhang Qingqing three years ago, but when he thought of the real Zhang Qingqing, he felt inexplicably guilty.
Ren Yiyuan said again: "You don't have to worry. The two sisters are no different in nature. The reason why they replaced the person was that the two sisters accidentally killed each other when they were competing for Yamamoto's favor. They were not innocent. The Zhang Qingqing you met before may have discussed it to some extent, but when Yamamoto's people found her, you were already standing on the opposite side."
Gu Nankai's eyes were blank, Ren Yiyuan's words kept echoing in his ears. He knew that all of this was true, but he knew too many truths overnight and he couldn't bear it anymore. It seemed that everything in his head was rolled into a ball and hit his forehead. He tried his best to control himself from thinking about these things but he couldn't control it.
His mind was just like when he escaped that year. It was exhausted but still working. Strange, painful and frightening images appeared in his mind like a flash of fire and were added to the twisted ball.
Gu Nankai only felt a fishy heat in his nose, his eyes went dark, and he fell to the side.
Ren Yiyuan and Pei Yi opened their eyes and hurriedly supported the man. Pei Yi quickly stopped his nosebleed and carried the man to Mr. Huo Jiu.
If Gu Nankai was awake at this moment, he would find that there was a small path leading out of the back door of Ren Yiyuan's yard. If he walked through it, he would easily reach Mr. Huo Jiu. However, if he took the main road, the two places were completely unrelated and could not be connected at all.
Mr. Huo Jiu was disturbed late at night and was still in a panic all night.
Fortunately, he woke up early the next morning.
But Gu Nankai, who had just woken up, didn't say a word for a long time. Even when Master Huo Jiu came over, he couldn't get him to speak. After a long silence, Gu Nankai said to Huo Liu: "I want to see Pei Yi."
People finally spoke. Huo Liu and the others were so happy that they almost jumped up. They quickly called Pei Yi over, but Gu Nankai did not ask anyone else to be present. Everyone had to leave, leaving only Gu Nankai and Pei Yi.
The two of them were speechless. No one spoke. Later, Gu Nankai finally spoke: "Do you...remember what happened back then?"
Pei Yi frowned slightly, which made his wound look even more hideous, but he was very clear about Gu Nankai's intention in asking this question.
"Remember, the poison formula was not perfect at that time. The symptoms of the poison injected into our group were similar. In order to save our lives, our scientists who were mixed in the R&D team made some adjustments. But your identity was different. And you, the son of Master Huo Jiu, Yamamoto, injected another drug into you. But you were luckier. The collision of the two drugs actually allowed you to survive. The situation of the rest of us was better than yours, but the pain we endured was probably the same."
Yes, Gu Nankai was thinking, in such an environment, there is no good or bad person, everyone’s fear and pain are the same, there is no difference, and no one will feel better just because they are brave.
"He must have had a hard time these years." Gu Nankai did not tell Pei Yi that he seemed to have recovered some memories, but looked at him and asked this question. This surprised Pei Yi very much. After a pause, he nodded solemnly: "You see him growing flowers and drinking tea, but I see that he has been trying to kill Yamamoto for more than ten years, and wants to develop a successful antidote to completely get rid of our pain. In fact, he is more anxious than anyone else."
Of course Gu Nankai believed it.
