In the pain that spread throughout the body, I felt that my breathing was almost becoming forced. I struggled to gradually open my eyes and saw that I was in a strange room and the people around me were the ones I had never seen before.
After meeting a stranger she had never met before, Ava's face was blank for a moment, and then after noticing that the person next to her was wearing a medical protective suit, her face became a little bleak and squeezed out.
A hint of smile——
"It's those guys... who made me like this..."
"Um?"
Slightly surprised, Gao Yuan couldn't help but ask after hearing Ava say this after waking up:
"Do you know your situation?"
Hearing this, listening to Gao Yuan's unfamiliar voice, Ava couldn't help but show a sad expression on her face, and shook her head bitterly:
"I don't know the specifics, but I know that the guy who becomes my new agent must be one of theirs."
"them……"
Hearing this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but frown slightly. He tasted the word silently in his heart, and then thought that Ava's so-called manager was Blackbeard. From his own perspective, he could basically guess the so-called "them".
", should refer to the organization, then——
"Are you not on the same side as 'them'?"
It's "them" rather than "the organization". It seems that the girl in front of me probably only knows that there are people like organizations, but she doesn't have a deep relationship with the organization, so she was ruthlessly selected by the organization.
The victim of this experiment.
So, after thinking of this, Gao Yuan asked in a very solemn tone, wanting to see what the girl's relationship was with the organization.
At the same time, he was also paying attention to the girl's body and the ups and downs of her breathing.
At this time, it should be already midnight, who would come knocking on the door?
When he heard Ava say this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but recall the rumors that Xiao Ai had mentioned when he boarded the ship, such as "Ava often fired her agent," so Gao Yuan couldn't help but interjected and asked.
And it seemed that Ava also saw what the silent Gao Yuan was thinking at the moment, and then she couldn't help but squeeze out a smile towards Gao Yuan:
"You don't have to show such an expression... I can see that you are not on the same side as them. And when that person injected me with that unknown drug, I guessed that this might be the outcome...
…”
Across the door, Xiao Ai's voice came from outside the door——
"Thank you... thank you..."
In this regard, even through rubber gloves, Ava seemed to feel the warmth of concern from Gao Yuan's hands, and a reassuring smile appeared on her face. Then Ava gradually closed her eyes and began to silently endure the increasing pain on her body.
The pain became increasingly unbearable.
Indeed, Ava is right.
She looked in pain, whether it was because of the virus attack or the sadness in her heart, tears welled up in the corners of Ava's eyes——
As the ice packs that were constantly being replaced took away her body temperature and gradually made her feel better, Ava looked at Gao Yuan beside her with a melancholy and relieved expression, thanked her, and then said as if begging:
But I am powerless...
Seeing this girl who was suffering from the virus and might be on the verge of death calm down like this, Gao Yuan could only stay by her side silently——
"Gao Yuan, it's me!"
There was no denying it. Ava looked at the strange man in front of her. She seemed to feel that in this situation, the person accompanying her was not from that group of people. Her mood was complicated and bitter. Ava's emotions were somewhat uncontrollable.
, said sadly:
In response to this, listening to Ava's words, Gao Yuan didn't know how to respond for a moment. He just looked at the girl in front of him with a sad expression and regret -
Moreover, it seems that because the girl in front of him is very similar to Xiao Ai, Gao Yuan always has an illusion in his trance, as if Xiao Ai may also encounter such a dangerous situation in the future, but he is powerless...
Seeing the girl making such a sad request to him, Gao Yuan couldn't help but be touched in his heart. He even started to tremble when he spoke, but he still replied affirmatively:
"I will always stay by your side!"
Because this room was being used as an isolation room to isolate Ava at this time, it was impossible to open the door to let people in at will, so the door of the room was locked from the inside by Gao Yuan.
So, Gao Yuan, who probably understood what Ava meant, held Ava's raised palm in his palms with his gloved hands.
"who?"
These two points seem to have become the fulcrum to support Gaoyuan's spirit, as if he is afraid that the next second, the girl's life will really slip away from his hands...
Hearing this, looking at Gao Yuan's firm eyes, Ava forced a smile of relief on her face. Then with great effort, Ava slowly raised her right hand and opened her hand, as if she wanted to shake it.
Living like nothing, stretching towards the distance——
"Brother, can you... stay with me all the time? I don't want... to be without anyone around me before I close my eyes completely..."
"Haiyuan!"
If the virus developed by Blackbeard really has a fatality rate close to that of "EBoV", then Ava, who has been injected with the virus, will indeed have a hard time surviving on this ship without any medical device intervention.
With that said, Ava's physical condition seems to be getting worse. In addition to fever and difficulty breathing, as the condition progresses, Ava's body seems to have developed symptoms similar to spasms.
For this reason, watching this scene, Gao Yuan could only use ice packs as much as possible to relieve Ava's symptoms——
"yes……"
However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the room——
"After my parents passed away unexpectedly last year, they pretended to be an agent and asked me to join them several times, but I refused..."
"Is that why you keep changing agents?"
Moreover, listening to the orderliness of the girl's speech, and thinking that she could become a world-famous child star at such an age, Gao Yuan could tell that she was a precocious girl, and thought that she should be able to explain what she knew.
Although his plan with Xiao Ai could save everyone on the ship, it could not save this girl, which made Gao Yuan feel helpless and helpless.
"But it seems that I will die in their hands in the end..."
"rest assured……"
Then, as expected, when the girl heard Gao Yuan's question, her expression suddenly looked as sad as if she was about to cry, and she hoarsely said as if she felt despair:
"No! I don't even know who they are!"
Just like this, motionless, I don't know how long it has passed, I can feel the warmth of the girl's hand in my hand.
Suddenly, after hearing that the person outside the door was Hui Yuan, Gao Yuan asked in surprise:
"Why are you here? What happened?"
Gao Yuan hurriedly released his hold on Ava's hand, ran to the door, and asked Xiao Ai outside the door -
At the same time, when Gao Yuan let go, Ava, who had her eyes closed, seemed to lose her sense of security for a moment and opened her eyes...
