NovelOnlineChapter 485 "Subject 77, seems like you're not too fond of the rules around here." He was the kind that held grudges, alright.
I stared at the doctor, my expression chilly, silent. In this place, I wasn't even deemed worthy of a name.
"You should appreciate the order I've established here," the doctor said, lifting his hand to point towards a nearby isolation unit. The staff unlocked it, releasing one of the subjects.
She was strikingly beautiful.
But she moved like she was empty inside, a shell of a person, walking up to the doctor.
"Kneel," said the doctor, his voice deep, as if he was trying to assert his dominance in this confined world.
Without hesitation, the subject knelt before him.
He smirked at me, a mix of boastfulness and warning in his gesture, as if to say I'd better comply just as obediently, be his puppet...
"You're disgusting," I laughed. "People like you probably sit at the bottom of the barrel in the real world, huh? Can't get your way outside, so you seek your thrills in a lab. You know what that makes you? Trash." My taunt angered him. His face turned cold as he pressed a button on the outside of the isolation unit, his smirk twisting. "I'll show you who's in charge here." Suddenly, ice-cold water poured down from above, drenchingcompletely.

I shivered uncontrollably, my anger pounding against the walls, but it was futile.
One of the staff members looked nervous. "Dr. Emily, she's... specially marked by our superiors for care. If anything happens to her, we'll have a hard texplaining..." My body temperature plummeted, my limbs stiffening as I collapsed, skin burning with a sensation as if I was engulfed in flames.
As hypothermia set in, the cold was replaced by a burning heat, as though I was being consumed by fire. The devil outside just watched, smiling, waiting forto beg for mercy.
"Keep an eye on her temperature. As long as she doesn't die, let her freeze. When she learns to beg... turn off the AC," Dr. Emily instructed, his voice grave.
"Colin..." It must've been the delirium setting in, my mind replaying the moments I yearned to see the most.
Colin...
I can't die.
I can't leave him behind again. I just can't! "Beep beep beep!" Suddenly, an alarm blared, signaling my heart rate going erratic.
The heart monitor flatlined.
The staff outside panicked, frantically pressing controls, rushing to unlock the unit.
Dr. Emily froze for a moment, seemingly not expecting my frailty. "Open the door, start CPR, get the sodium bicarbonate! Now!" As the alarm continued to sound, the doctor pushed past the staff, starting CPR onhimself.
His panic was oddly comforting. It seemed... my value hadn't been diminished by their truth serum.
He couldn't afford to letdie.
"Agh!" A scream echoed within the unit as I quickly flipped Dr. Emily beneath me, my fingers digging into his eyes, applying pressure.
He struggled in agony, blood streaming.
I glared at the staff who rushed in.
"Tell the head of the lab... I want to see them!" My voice was low. I needed to see Naomi. I suspected Naomi was the one in charge here.
The doctor trapped in my hold attempted to struggle but dared not provokefurther.

"If you move, I'll gouge out your eyes. You know the organization wouldn't O kill a valuable subject likeover a doctor," threatened, turning to the subject still kneeling outside. "You, get up!" She seemed not to listen at all.
The doctor laughed, a mad cackle. "They only listen to me."
"Doctor, once you're blinded, what use will you be to the lab?" Casked ке with a smirk, my grip tightening. Fear crept into his eyes as the pain caused him to convulse.
"Open all the units!" I demanded, my gaze fixed on the staff.
Frightened and seeing the doctor at my mercy, she complied, unlocking all the units.
The other subjects slowly approached.
The one on the floor finally stood up.
"You said they only listen to you?" I questioned.
The doctor's fear was palpable now.
I shoved him out, pushing him towards the subjects. "The lab'sm security passing through the decontamination corridor outside, will take five minutes to arrive."
