Mr. Zhao was taken aback.
Something seemed to occur to him, and he gave Gu Xi a knowing look. "No. The Special Service Team was in too much of a hurry last time..." All their time and energy was spent on the specimen from that Mutated Locust Tree, so they hadn't gotten around to Experiment No. 1 yet.
'Still... I should probably give the girl a heads-up about this.'
As Mr. Zhao led Gu Xi toward the experimental fields, he hinted obliquely, "You don't have to worry about that issue. I've already submitted an application. The base will be sending someone from the Healing System over soon..."
Gu Xi nodded but said nothing.
They entered the experimental fields and were busy for the better part of the day.
When Gu Xi returned that evening, Wei Heng led her straight to the prettiest of the log cabins. "Go on, take a look. I've decorated the whole thing for you..."
