Chapter 674 The Price of Life

Chapter 673 The Price of Life
Boston at night, the famous medical city.

The lights are feasting, skyscrapers stand tall, and there is a 40-storey high-end apartment in the city center.

The three-story duplex structure has a huge space, covering more than 400 square meters.

A seven-meter-high floor-to-ceiling window offers a panoramic view of the city at night.

Behind the floor-to-ceiling windows is a T-shaped corridor, with blue swimming pools on both sides, and a bath towel tied around his waist. David, a doctor of medicine in his 50s, looks like a strong 24-year-old guy.

He sat staring at the end of the catwalk, and the other party held a cigarette in his hand, half sitting in front of the window.Looking out of the window, this is a middle-aged woman who still has charm, her eyes can't help but get a little more confused:
"Fiona, you are still so charming!"

The water temperature is 38 degrees six, which is the temperature of love at first sight.

Fiona stretched out her hand, the temperature of the swimming pool softened her face, and her heart, which had been silent for a long time, burst into vitality again. Thinking of the tenderness just now, Fiona's eyes became a little more tender:
"I like the youthful look, just like I like you now."

But the next moment, with wet fingers running through the ends of the hair, seeing the whiteness between the fingers?
In an instant, Fiona's face became more frightened, and she almost subconsciously shouted:
"David!"

The sharp and piercing cry made David frown, but he subconsciously stood up and looked at the half-lying beauty in front of the French window with concern:
"what happened?"

Clenching her fists tightly, the blond Fiona hid a few broken white hairs, her eyes were as cold as the cold wind, and her voice was somewhat urgent:

"How is the research on the medicine I need?"

Fiona has changed. Although she still looks as charming as half a year ago, like a poppy full of fatal temptation, she can clearly feel that after leaving Zhenlongyu, her body seems to have reached a critical point. point.

"Crack!"

There was a sound of glass breaking.

The current Fiona is like a beautiful and exquisite vase. Although it still looks exquisite and beautiful, the inside is full of countless cracks. Her power is like water, constantly seeping out from the cracks.

Like a rose whose stem has been cut off and soaked in water.

For Fiona, what she lost now was not water, but her strength, life and youth!

So six months ago, Fiona spent a huge amount of money to ask her personal doctor to help her research a new drug.

I hope that I can maintain my youth and strength through technological means!
However, in the face of Fiona's urgent voice, David's eyes flashed a touch of indifference.

The power of science and technology is powerful, not to mention prolonging life, even immortality is not impossible. The ultimate version of cyberpunk is mechanical ascension, which can theoretically live forever.

But in terms of current technology?

Well, maybe with this miracle drug, David still has something.

As a top doctor of medicine + doctor of biology, David has come into contact with top scientists and knows some inside information, but just the half-year $1000 million offered by Fiona?

It is simply not enough to support yourself to build a large laboratory.

What's more, it will take at least ten years for this kind of experiment from research and development to experiment, and finally to the final product.

Forever young?

David felt a little disdainful, the price of eternal youth is not so cheap.

If someone can guarantee 2000 million US dollars to extend one year of life?
Don't think it's expensive, there will be a large number of people waving banknotes looking for you to buy life, the rich people in this world definitely think more than you.

When Jobs died, he had assets of 60 billion US dollars, and he could spend one-third of it to buy 100 years of life!
Having said that, David still expressed tenderness to his current biggest benefactor:

"Fiona, I'm sorry. But believe me, I love you. For you, I will definitely research the medicine for eternal youth!"

Although in theory, David knew he couldn't do it.

But for an old woman with little education and no advanced medicine or biology, David is very confident that he can fool her, even if the other party has some supernatural powers, it doesn't matter.

No brain is no brain, which does not prevent the contempt in David's heart.

As he said that, David took the initiative to walk over and hugged Fiona from behind, stroking her neck and earlobes with his thick palms, but David didn't see the coldness flashing in Fiona's eyes.

The soft voice echoed in the room, and Fiona looked out the window with blurred eyes:

"David, you know what?"

David raised his head and looked into Fiona's eyes through the reflection of the glass:

"what?"

There was a chill in her eyes, and Fiona held David's arm, which was different from the limpness before. Perhaps she is the real Supreme Witch at this moment:
"Never lie to a witch."

After the words fell, David's eyes flickered with horror.

Like a black hole, a suction surged out of Fiona's body.

In the large area where the two of them joined together, David felt that something indescribable in his body was being pulled away.

This made him look horrified, and subconsciously wanted to push away the vicious witch in front of him.

But it was already too late at this moment, and as a powerful witch, Fiona, who possessed extraordinary power, wanted to solve a human being so easily.

In front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, David's body seemed to be a 24-year-old young man, visibly recovering to the body that should belong to his age, shriveled, lacking enough strength, and his body's various skills were seriously declining.

However, this is not enough. What Fiona wants is not to take back the life she gave to the other party, but what she wants is to take David's life.

The skin began to lose its elasticity, the muscles withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and large pieces of strong hair peeled off, and there was a "click" sound, and David's leg bones were directly broken from the middle due to osteoporosis.

David is 1.7 meters tall and weighs 72 kilograms.

Now the weight will not exceed [-] kilograms!
His eye sockets were deeply sunken, like dehydrated tomatoes, with shriveled skin attached to the bone.

With a hint of disgust in her expression, Fiona casually pushed David behind her. His body was like a mummy, heaving up and down in the pool, and she watched the back of his hand recover its tight skin again.

There was a hint of intoxication in Fiona's eyes:
"Ah~ it's the breath of life, the smell of youth!"

In a cracked vase, there is a rose that is about to dry up. As a bottle of cool nutrient solution is poured into the vase, the dry rose begins to bloom, but at the next moment, the back of the hand that has just recovered its youth emerges again wrinkled.

Fiona's expression froze, and her gaze changed for a while.

No one knew what she was thinking at this moment, and she pressed her palm heavily on the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window as if venting. At this moment, Fiona's expression was gloomy and terrifying. She seemed to have a very crazy idea? !
In New Orleans, three thousand kilometers away, Raymond looked at the school in front of him with hesitation.

Rather than saying that this is a school, it is better to say that this is a big house with an ancient history.

Say school?
It's really flattering here.

Raymond had never seen such a small school. The better private kindergartens in New York were larger and more luxurious than this one.

If it wasn't for the words "School for Witches" written on the sign at the door, and the fact that the person who asked him to investigate was Chen Changqing, Raymond even thought that the owner of this house might be a curious otaku.

witch?

How could a decent witch live in such a place?
Raymond felt that there was a problem with his three views, and just when he was hesitant to knock on the door, Cordelia, the principal of the witch school who had put on makeup, was holding an old LV yellow leather bag, and happened to push open the door.

His eyes quickly flashed across the four people in front of him.

A black butler, a stuffy secretary, a guy in a hat that looks like a butler?It could also be a servant or something.

Cordelia finally looked at Chen Changqing. Although the clothes on the other party were a bit cheap, they were clean. The most important thing was that the man's eyes were very sharp, and he could tell at a glance that he was the core of the four.

And just when she was about to ask, Raymond in front of her said:

"May I ask, are you Ms. Fiona?"
