“Everyone is infected and only he is alive. He is also wanted tonight for taking the sample.” The senior colonel’s voice was low. “Is the Lighthouse covering for him? What research are you doing and why can people be infected without contact?”

“Regardless of whether this matter is related to the Lighthouse or not, you have to give him to me. At least I can discover something. If you kill him then there is nothing.”

The senior colonel chuckled. “Then you will continue with the dangerous experiment?”

“Tonight’s events have absolutely nothing to do with the Lighthouse’s experiments.” The doctor stated coldly. “On the contrary, we will investigate why this happened.”

“Your group have been saying this for more than 100 years that you can find the cause of the infection. Yet you’re still in the dark and no clues have been found. How can the Lighthouse guarantee that it won’t be more dangerous to leave him alive?”

“I can’t guarantee it.” The doctor stared at the senior colonel. “However, I know that the base can be no worse off than it is now.”

After this brief sentence, the senior colonel’s hand holding the gun trembling. The doctor’s words seemed to make him lose all his strength. He spoke slowly, “There has to be progress after an hour.”

“Okay,” the doctor said.

There was a bang as the door of the interrogation room opened and the soldiers escorting him stood guard outside. Through a layer of glass, An Zhe and the doctor stared at each other. The soldier’s actions were rough and An Zhe was almost slammed in. His back and shoulders were still in pain.

However, the doctor didn’t greet him. There was no time and perhaps he wasn’t in the mood. His first words were the same as the senior colonel. “What happened tonight?”

An Zhe truthfully told him. Unlike the senior colonel, the doctor believed him after a brief period of thinking about it.

“You’re saying there was always a different gene lurking in her but it only showed up now?”

An Zhe nodded.

“She killed the women and offspring of the base. Was this out of hatred for the base? Are you saying that she developed a contactless infection because she was in a certain range while awake?”

“No, that’s not it.” An Zhe shook his head. “When she first became a bee, she just wanted to leave here. Then the bee came back.”

“You think her mind was replaced at that time?”

“Yes.”

The doctor suddenly laughed but his laughter was hoarse. His eyebrows furrowed, the corner of his eyes sagged and it was more like an ugly cry than a laugh. “She isn’t immune either.”

An Zhe watched him quietly.

“Don’t look at me like that.” The doctor took a deep breath.

An Zhe told him, “I don’t know anything.”
