Somewhere in C-City, in a remote area is a military base warehouse. About a mile away from the warehouse is surrounded by wire gates, and guards with snipers and AR 15. There are also some guards walking around with K9 German Shepherds.
The military base warehouse is privately owned by Wang Ju-long with an underground laboratory as the warehouse itself is just a cover up for what is underneath it.
A black Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 coupe stopped in front of the security checkpoint. A military officer walked out from the guardhouse follow by a K9. They approached in front of the tinted window of the driver side. An Zhu rolled down the window and merely gave them a glance.
When the military officer saw that it was An Zhu, he quickly stepped back and bent down to show his respect.
"Sorry to stop you Dr. Zhu."
He straightened his back and turned to look at the security camera on the corner of the guardhouse. With a wave of right hand, the gate opened up. The black Mercedes-Benz proceeded forward.
It has been four hours since Ju-long left the mansion.
The two military guards standing in front of the warehouse saw a black Mercedes-Benz approaching about a dozen feet away. One of them turned around to the wall behind him, glancing at the scanner.
The military officer scanned his ID badge. A blinking green light appeared on top of the scanner while the scanner itself slid down to reveal a screen, below the it was an eye scanner. The man moved his face close to the eye scanner and a red visible light flashed out, going up and down the left eye before it retracted back. Later, the man's face popped up on the screen and below his picture is his ID number, name, and military status. Below the military status show two green words: "Access Granted."
The big wide door of the warehouse split in the middle and slid away from each other as the entrance began to get wider. Inside the warehouse were floor lamps surrounding a big circle.
The black Mercedes-Benz enter inside and parked in the middle of the circle. An Zhu pressed the top gear lever. The top opened, showing a finger scanner. An Zhu then pressed his thumb on it, making the little screen scan his finger prints. Seconds later, a beep was heard.
The big circle was actually a lift to the underground laboratory! The circle went down the bright tunnel as now the empty circle was replaced with another, blocking the hole.
Once they reached the laboratory, Ju-long, An Zhu, and the somewhat okay An Jin got out of the car. Ju-long gave the petri dish containing Qin Shimei's blood to An Zhu while he headed straight to his office and An Jin went stalked off to recuperate in another department.
A week later, An Zhu, who wore a white lab coat with grey tablet in his hand, ran to Ju-long's office. A serious expression was shown on his innocent looking face. When he arrived at the front door, he was about to knock and announce his presence. But Ju-long's strong and commanding voice echoed behind the door.
"Come in."
An Zhu opened the door quickly and shut the door with a sigh. Once inside the office, he faced Ju-long with a salute before proceeding.
"Boss, sorry to intrude you but there is something important I need to show you."
Ju-long did not lift his head. He was too focused on the documents in front of him.
"What is it?"
An Zhu's back straighten up. "It's regarding about Qin Shimei's blood."
Ju-long's head instantly lifted up and his golden eyes locked on An Zhu before nodding, telling him to continue his report. An Zhu's stoic face shows indifference but there was cold sweat trickling down his back.
"After comparing Qin Shimei's blood to Alaric Khalid, the DNA results show 99% matching." He paused and stared at Ju-long.
On the other hand, Ju-long was excited and his eyes were showing his longing but it quickly vanished and switched back to his aloof and cold face.
An Zhu quickly took out the tablet and his finger swiped down on the screen several times before tossing it at the center of the room. The tablet didn't fall down, instead it floated a couple feet above the ground. Several holograms of the reports and images of DNA structures popped out. The reports and DNA is now visible in front of Ju-long and An Zhu.
"I also found some other stuff as well while I was doing the DNA comparison. In Qin Shimei's blood I found high levels of hCG (a hormone produced by the placenta)."
Ju-long's eyebrow rose but his face quickly changed back. Because An Zhu was too busy maneuvering the hologram DNAs, he didn't see Ju-long's reaction as he continued.
"Boss, it seems to me that Qin Shimei is pregnant and checking the high levels of hCG, she is most likely along two months. During this first trimester, there is a probability of miscarriage if her body and mental state is not well care. Boss, is there anything else you need me to do?"
Ju-long was quiet the whole time until An Zhu finished his reports. Knowing that the fetus in Qin Shimei's stomach is his, he quickly turned his face to the side and let out a couple of dry coughs. He waved his hand to dismiss An Zhu.
After An Zhu left, Ju-long leaned back on the black leather chair. His finger tapped on the desk while his face was emotionless. At this moment, no one can tell what Ju-long was thinking.
