Strix was stunned. After a long while, he lowered his head and said, “Yeah, you’re right. She’s using your
birth to tell me that I’ve succeeded.”
The car was stopped outside of a research building.
A man and a woman were standing at the entrance. Both of them were the people of Morwich, and they
seemed to be in their 30s. They were wearing white coats that would only be worn when they were on
duty, with ID cards pinned on the pockets in front of their chests.
When the man with a buzz cut saw Strix, he smiled at him excitedly and asked, “You’ve finally returned!”
“Yeah, but don’t tell anyone else that I’ve returned, including the director,” Strix said.
He nodded and replied, “Understood. And this is…”
Maisie had never shown herself in front of the media when she was in Morwich, so they did not know
who she was.
Strix looked at Maisie and introduced her. “She’s Marina’s daughter. Her name is Alice.”
The man and the woman were stunned.
Inside the office…
Maisie took over the cup of coffee from the woman,
smiled at her, and said, “Thank you so much, Ms. Sasha.”
Sasha then went to sit beside Mario. She was Mario’s assistant, as well as his wife. “Don’t mention it.
Honestly, we didn’t expect you to be Marina’s daughter.”
Looking at Strix, Mario asked, “I thought Marina-”
Sasha jabbed him with her elbow before he could finish his question and asked, “What makes you come
back to the laboratory this time , Mr. Strix?”
Strix took a sip from his coffee and replied, “I’m going to restart the research that I left off that year. Also,
I need two more helpers.
Mario was stunned. “What? You still want to continue the research on the virus?”
“It’s the mutated sleeper virus this time. I want to give it a try.” Strix said as he put the cup down.
Sasha exchanged a glance with Mario, and they both seemed worried. “But where are we going to get
the blood from the infected patients?”
“You can use my blood,” Maisie said calmly. “My mother was infected with the sleeper virus. She was
injected with that antibodies before she got pregnant with me, and my blood contains the genetic factor
of the sleeper virus.”
Mario was taken aback, “This is… Unbelievable. This is a one-in-a-thousand chance, and it actually
happened!” Strix chuckled. “Yeah. I didn’t expect that either.” Mario shot up and said excitedly, “Is it okay
if I draw some of your blood now, Ms. Alice? This is a miracle in the medical world, and I have to study
it.”
Strix looked at Maisie as if he was waiting for her to respond.
Maisie nodded. Sasha then proceeded to draw a tube of blood from her. After pulling the needle out, she
applied a cotton patch to her wound and asked her to press on it.
Strix stood up and patted Maisie’s shoulder. “You sit here for a while. I’m going to check on Mario.”
Maisie nodded.
Strix came to the coagulation laboratory, where Mario was analyzing the coagulation data.
“How is it?” Strix asked as he approached Mario.
Mario moved the microscope out of the way and said excitedly, “Her blood contains all necessary
antibodies. She won’t get infected with any virus at all!”
Mario took the documents with the data, put on his glasses, and flipped through them. “Apparently, the
antibodies have combined with the virus and mutated, resulting in a new ‘variant’. The effect of her
antibodies will last at least ten years. Her blood is
even more precious than any rare blood type!”
Strix took the data over to have a look at it. Then, he said, “I’m planning to use her blood to develop a
new type of antibody.”
