I Can Read Minds But Will Not Be Marked

Chapter 70

"What do you mean?" He YunTing wrinkled his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.

Xu Zhiheng felt his own tension and knew there was a clear disorder, and after he organized his expression he continued, "This report, back then, was my student's idea. He was a little more crazy than me, thinking about the life sciences bordering on paranoia." He paused, sighed, and seemed to recall something, "but he forgot that in all science-related research and ideas, there's always the most basic premise, ethics is the bottom line."

"So what?"

"I can't predict whether this is a coincidence or whether someone is really already working on it," Xu Zhiheng analyzed, "but if it's so, it's... It's unethical."

"Just like when I tried to stop the Burning Blood research, if the research isn't even ethically convincing, how can we be sure that the final result is really good for humanity?"

Qi Jiamu was silent.

Qi JiaZe had been weak since he was a child, and he was introverted and reticent, so the only person he could trust was himself. The first thing he thought was that it didn't matter if he spent the rest of his life in a civilian area, he was an Alpha, and he was better than the average person, which allowed Qi JiaZe to spend his childhood in peace.

As long as he could take care of his brother, he didn't have to fight for his life to be a pillar of the so-called Empire. There were already so many good people, so it wasn't a big deal if he was willing to be mediocre.

It was a pity that he wasn't able to get everything he wanted.

The distribution of the Empire was so deformed that it resembled an upside-down triangle. The top tier, which was clearly a minority, enjoyed the most privileged resources, and at all times, they never needed to worry about not having enough at hand; while down the line, the vast majority of resources were distributed to the premium, core race, leaving the commoners with an obvious shortage of things.

Service industry, technology industry, social security, as well as basic medical conditions and educational conditions, the civilian areas could never compete with the core.

To get higher and better, one had to work their way up the ladder.

This was something that Qi Jiamu learned after taking his brother to healthcare services, only to be turned away an unknown number of times.

It was then that he realized that the little wish he had in mind was almost impossible to achieve in the civilian area. Too many people competing for resources and no advantage for himself. His mental strength in the civilian area had been considered the best. Since childhood, there was no one who was his opponent, many people said so, and for such an Alpha not to go to the base to try was a pity.

It was a struggle for him to get into the core area, not to mention others. At least he would no longer have to worry about economic problems.

Qi Jiamu hesitated, but set foot towards the core area. It wasn't long after he left that Qi JiaZe's health began to deteriorate. Thinking about it, Qi Jiamu glanced at He YunTing gratefully.

Since Qi JiaZe was secretly transferred to Xu Zhiheng's lab, his mood seemed to have stabilized quite a bit and his injuries were completely healed, only sometimes he still couldn't immediately recognize Qi Jiamu. His blood samples and various data were already being analyzed, but since Xu Zhiheng was the only one treating him, progress wasn't very fast.

But those present were obviously more worried about something else, and He YunTing pondered for a moment, continuing the discussion on the question he had just asked, "What if... if we go by what you said, what is the worst case scenario?"
