Zhou Lin - Chapter 243 Pharmacist
December 6, 2219, Central America, Caribbean.
At nine o’clock in the evening, a sexy pool party was in full swing in a certain sea-view villa.
At a glance, under the lights are all the graceful figures of beauties in swimsuits. Even the waiters responsible for delivering food and drinks are all model-level beauties; beside the swimming pool, the fish roe is piled randomly like self-service sauce in a hot pot restaurant. Sauce, foie gras, lobster… and the huge champagne tree in the corner all seem to tell how empty and boring the life of the owner here is.
The protagonist of this party is undoubtedly the only male present who is a little green among the red bushes.
He was a mixed-race young man who looked to be in his twenties. Not only was he handsome, but he was also tall and fit. When most people saw him for the first time, they would think he was a model, actor, or someone who was particularly handsome. Athletes and the like; and after people learn about his wealth, all previous impressions of his appearance will be diluted, leaving only the label of rich second generation.
But in fact, this man is almost fifty years old this year, and he is not a rich second generation. Everything he has now is earned by himself.
Of course… the way he makes money is neither legal nor ethical.
His reputation is quite loud in both black and white. Although few people know his real name, everyone knows his nickname – Pharmacist.
The pharmacist’s story, like an urban legend, is widely circulated on Taoer.
A seemingly ordinary university assistant, a genius with no moral bottom line, an unabashed egoist, and a vicious outlaw who is not easy to mess with.
A person like him, in troubled times, would be little affected; because he does not care about politics, will not get involved in any armed force’s military operations with political purposes, nor will he do anything for the sake of loyalty or Friendship is something like this, and you will not sacrifice your own interests or make any compromises, let alone put yourself in a dangerous situation.
He just found a place to hide, cut off contact with all his previous partners, and enjoy life while ensuring his absolute safety… Anyway, his savings were enough for him to squander for a long time.
But in the end, someone found him.
Perhaps he did survive the troubled times leisurely, but what he had to face next was a new dynasty and a new ruler. .
…………
Oh? There is such a thing… The pharmacist was lying on a recliner with his eyes fixed. He habitually swallowed a grape fed into his mouth by the beauty in a swimsuit next to him, while thinking to himself in his heart. He muttered this to himself.
The reason why he asked himself this was because at this time he saw a person – a man.
There should be no other men in his villa except himself.
In fact, not just men, except those he allowed to come in, no matter men or women, no matter they were humans or animals, or even snakes, insects, rats, ants… in short, as long as they were living creatures, they could not freely enter and leave his villa.
Because his villa is not only equipped with an ultra-high-level automatic security system, but also has a chemical protection network designed by him in every area inside and outside. Even in the open-air backyard, around the swimming pool, and near the fence, There are also gas force fields invisible to the naked eye, and only those who wear full-coverage biochemical protective suits (the kind that come with their own oxygen bottles) and can crack the security system can successfully sneak in.
But the man in front of me didn’t wear anything like that.
Yan Wushang was only wearing a very ordinary short-sleeved casual shirt, a pair of loose cropped pants, and a pair of sandals. He walked into the pharmacist’s backyard and walked straight towards the latter.
Can I talk to you? Yan Wushang walked up to the pharmacist and asked without saying hello.
Ha… The pharmacist smiled, waved his hand and drove away the beauties surrounding him. He stood up and made a please gesture to Yan Wushang, Come and sit in the room.
The two of them didn’t say anything more, and walked back to the villa silently, one after the other.
Under the leadership of the pharmacist, Yan Wushang was taken to a room on the second floor. This room was located diagonally above the swimming pool. From the floor-to-ceiling windows in the room, one could have an unobstructed view of the entire backyard of the villa.
After entering the room, the two of them sat down on two sofa chairs by the window. On the coffee table between them was a pure gold cigarette case and a bottle of whiskey that had been consumed one-third.
Would you like one? As soon as the pharmacist sat down, he opened the cigarette case and took a cigarette skillfully.
Okay. Yan Wushang was not polite to him and refused anyone who came.
So, the pharmacist casually picked up a lighter from the table next to him, lit a cigarette for himself, and then lit it for Yan Wushang as well; then, they each took a puff of the cigarette, and each exhaled it with a comfortable expression. There was a puff of white smoke for a while… It seemed that at that moment, except for this puff of cigarette, nothing else in the world mattered.
But after that brief moment, when the smoke gradually dissipated, the men still had to start doing what they should do.
I guess you are here on behalf of the empire? The pharmacist was the first to speak.
Why do you see this? Yan Wushang didn’t mind chatting with him for a few more words.
There is no one like you in the Federation today, the pharmacist said.
That is to say, did the Federation in the past send people like me to look for you? Yan Wushang asked.
Huh… that’s not the case. The pharmacist shrugged, You are the first person I have seen who can be completely immune to the chemical defenses I have deployed by relying on your own abilities, but the Federation is not all fools. They will send drones, robots, and modified people wearing protective suits to contact me… Well – after all, I have been working with the Jimenez family for many years, and the Jimenez family is still supporting each other after all. The federation works for food, so the federation is quite familiar with some of my situations and was on guard before I came here.
Well… Yan Wushang nodded and took a puff of cigarette, Since the Federation has come to see you, and it sounds like it’s been more than once, why haven’t you ever gone out to help them? To go one step further… facing you After repeated rejections, they didn’t come forward to force me?”
Hahaha… The pharmacist laughed happily a few times, How do you know they didn’t come here to fight hard? He paused and suppressed some of his smile, As they retreated steadily on the frontal battlefield, Their demands for biochemical weapons are getting stronger and stronger. However, the scientists they raise cannot meet their special needs of they can only poison the enemy, at most the untouchables and soldiers, but not our federal dignitaries. …So they are bound to find me, and in the end, ‘finding’ turns into ‘catching’…
But you were not caught. Yan Wushang continued.
Yeah, I’m not that easy to catch. The pharmacist tilted his head and took another puff of cigarette, But I was also annoyed by them and had to move frequently to avoid their harassment… ——It’s much better now, they have no energy left to come to me again.”
But I’m here. Yan Wushang said.
You? the pharmacist glanced at Yan Wushang, Huh…you are different. The demands you bring, that is, the empire’s demands, shouldn’t be as difficult to handle as the federation’s, right?
Indeed. Yan Wushang nodded, It’s not difficult to handle.
I am also a person who is aware of current affairs. Since the world is already ruled by the empire, there is no need for me to fight against you. The pharmacist continued, Let me put it this way…as long as you can ensure that my quality of life will not be reduced. , or even a slight improvement, then I can naturally provide you with services, such as…providing some technical support for the ‘dirty work’ of those of you who are invisible, haha…all you want me to do is this kind of thing. Bar?
His positioning of himself is indeed quite accurate.
A person who can develop potions such as Praying Mantis and Velvet must not only have extraordinary talent, but also a lack of moral bottom line; the most important thing is… he also has self-awareness, and he knows very well that this is what he is doing. He is a top expert in this inhumane and dirty business, and there will be a market for people like him in any era.
You…were only half right. Unexpectedly, Yan Wushang’s next response did not go as the pharmacist expected, The empire does need your services, but it won’t give you the kind of treatment you want. .”
Oh? The pharmacist didn’t panic when he heard this, What? So is Emperor Zilin such a stingy person? Or…doesn’t he even have the judgment to judge the value of a person like me?
Your Majesty’s judgment is… Yan Wushang put out the cigarette in his hand when he said this, …a mad scientist with no bottom line like you does have certain value for the new empire. , it would be a pity to kill you directly, but if you want to keep you alive… you must be strictly controlled.
Is that so… The pharmacist put out the cigarette in his hand after hearing this, In other words, today… you are not here to discuss cooperation with me, but to arrest me?
Yes. Yan Wushang said bluntly.
At this moment, the pharmacist’s tone had become very cold: Before you came, have you ever thought about why the people sent by the Federation to arrest me in the past six months…those elite ability user troops failed?
Because you are very strong? Yan Wushang asked.
It’s likely to be stronger than you imagine. The pharmacist said.
No. Yan Wushang said, I already know that you are very strong. He said, looking at the other person up and down, You can even make yourself the medicine to ‘restore youth’ It’s not difficult to make something to improve your combat ability. Who knows what you’ve done to your body over the years. Even if you have combat power equivalent to that of a mad-level ability user, I won’t feel it. Unexpected.
Then you mean, even if I’m that strong, you can still catch me? the pharmacist asked again.
Ha… At this moment, Yan Wushang smiled. This was the first time he smiled after meeting the pharmacist.
This smile made the pharmacist shudder.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m just here to ‘take you back’. The work of subduing you has already been completed by others. After Yan Wushang said this, he suddenly turned his head and looked at the floor-to-ceiling windows beside him.
Seeing this, the pharmacist turned his head belatedly and looked down through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
At this time, all the beauties who had been hypnotized by the druggist had disappeared. There was only one person left beside the swimming pool where there were many people, that is, the woman who fed the druggist grapes just now.
Like the pharmacist, few people know her real name. One of her most commonly used pseudonyms is Mandi. Of course, people on the road have another name for her – Datura.
She is such a beautiful woman, isn’t she? Who can refuse what such a beauty brings to her lips? Yan Wushang said while making an OK gesture to Mandy below, You Can you still remember how much you ate from what she put into your mouth in the past few days?
After receiving the signal, Mandy returned the same gesture to Yan Wushang, then walked away with her enchanting cat steps and twisted her sexy figure.
Hmph… After a brief moment of surprise, the pharmacist snorted coldly, That’s it? He shook his head, I thought you had some clever trick, but the result was to let a woman hide the poison in her body and then distribute it. Slowly put it into my food every time? He said, leaning forward slightly, looking at Yan Wushang and said, Brother, I am a ‘pharmacist’, what other medicine do you think can be used in this world? Will it hurt me? He paused for half a second, raised his eyebrows and said, Or is it not poison that you released, but some kind of nano-robot? At this point, he laughed again, Heh…then… I can also tell you that there is no need to waste your efforts, that kind of thing cannot survive in my body.
After he finished speaking, two seconds passed before Yan Wushang said calmly: It’s dark water.
Huh? The pharmacist was stunned for a moment, What is that? Some new type of drug you developed? He still had the same indifferent attitude, How do you want me to explain it to you? As long as it is in line with the current control of mankind, Made with chemical knowledge…
That’s not medicine, it’s a living thing. Yan Wushang interrupted him.
Microorganisms? Bacteria? Viruses? The pharmacist still looked disdainful, So what?
Oh… forget it. Yan Wushang simply slumped down on the sofa chair, crossed his legs, and took out another cigarette, I’m too lazy to explain to you…
