43、马修杨冷笑一声 ...
-
她先前答应过高明赫不会再来医院闲逛的，所以现在梅开二度，心里又慌张又惭愧。高明赫穿着白色实验服，震惊了几秒最后恢复正常神色。
麦蓝死死咬住嘴唇不说话，试图装作不认识他的模样。
因为这里不止高明赫一人，他身边还有马修·杨。以及其余三个穿白色实验服的年轻人，两个穿黑色制服的警卫。
埃迪还沉浸在失去手下的悲伤里，但没有动怒，只是幽幽望了马修一眼：“You locked the ward.”
“Exactly.”马修杨没有丝毫辩解的意思，径自走到病房前，透过玻璃厚墙观察房间里拼命撞墙的夏洛蒂，“She must be a relative of Patient No.011.They look similar.”顿了顿，转身看向埃迪和麦蓝，“So…when and where you found her?”
埃迪看了麦蓝一眼，麦蓝知道轮到自己回答，“She’s my roommate,she became crazy 1 hrs ago,and she want to find back her daughter.”但有意抹去了“laboratory”这句。
马修杨反问：“How did she know her daughter was in the hospital, who told her?”
麦蓝摇头：“I have no idea.I just followed her here.”
“Really?”马修杨走到麦蓝身前，目光穿过镜片落在她脸上，“Hey,we met before.Do you remember that?” 马修杨用手背叩了叩玻璃墙，“Her daughter likes the flowers you made from papers.”
麦蓝僵硬地点头，“Yeah.”
马修走向那几个同样穿实验服的人，高明赫始终十分冷静地站在原地不动，直到马修走到他身前，替他整理衣领：“Hey,Xavier,don’t be so nervous.”
高明赫微笑：“Thanks,Dr.Young.”
“You have always been my most satisfying student,Xavier.”马修若有所思，脸上笑容意味深长，“And I noticed that you and this lady look very similar, so do you know each other?”
“I don’t know him.”麦蓝立刻撇清关系。
高明赫也点头。
马修杨似乎放过他们，只是笑着“Fine”了一句。“Now that this woman has been caught,nothing extra needs to be done.So I suggest everyone just go about their own business.”
他走向电梯，其他人跟着他离开，但就当快要走进电梯时他忽然冷不防地命令：“Catch her.”
埃迪突然就把麦蓝拎起来，她目瞪口呆“what”了半句，就被莫名其妙拖走。
“And you,”马修又突然扭头看向高明赫，“Xavier.”
突然间，麦蓝和高明赫被警卫用手铐拷住，又被蒙上头。这完全出乎麦蓝的意料，她一边默默流泪思考自己究竟哪里说错话了，一边像无头苍蝇般被他们带到不知何处。
高明赫的任务是取得马修杨信任，实现血清样本测试恢复这个世界原有生态。而从目前这个状况来看，马修杨已经在怀疑他了。
跟随他们走了大概十分钟，期间她根据失重感判断应该是上了一次电梯，直到左右两侧抓住她胳膊的警卫停下脚步，紧接着头上的布袋被揭下。麦蓝环顾四周，看清这里是一间实验室。试验台上各种仪器装置，以及一排密封透明容器，和竖式冰箱一样大小。但容器里液体呈浑浊的灰绿色，类似河床底部经年累月沉积的泥水，很难看清里面究竟储存着什么东西。
高明赫始终神色泰然自若：“Why arrest me?”
马修杨努了努嘴，“Well,Xavier,you know I really dislike errors and the various extreme results they cause. However, they often contain truths.”
高明赫抬了抬眉，笑：“What do you think is the truth?I have no idea,sir.”
马修杨推了推镜框，走到其中一个透明容器前。
“What’s that?”高明赫凝了凝心神。
“Your friend,maybe.”马修杨按下手里的按钮，只见那原先充满浑浊灰绿色液体的容器逐渐明亮，液体也慢慢变澄清，直到出现一个人形。
“斯嘉丽。”
麦蓝颤抖着走向那座容器，隔着玻璃和液体，斯嘉丽睁着眼睛，面无表情，身体也纹丝不动，唯独发丝随液体轻轻摇曳，像一具溺死在水里的平静尸体。麦蓝拍了拍玻璃，但收到任何回应。
“Your friend climbed in here from the hospital rooftop two hours ago. I think she came to rescue you or to tip off some information, right?”马修杨敲了敲玻璃容器，容器里的斯嘉丽俨然一具尸体标本。“Rest,young man,I don’t kill her.”
高明赫紧抿嘴角，肩膀微微颤抖，“What do you want?”
马修杨走到他身边，笑了笑，“What do you want?It seems that you haven't told me anything so far.”
高明赫直直盯着马修杨，“I will tell everything, but I need to make it clear beforehand that I am absolutely not a spy from Eastasia.”
马修杨耸耸肩：“I'm all ears.”
“Not you.”高明赫瞥了眼一旁的埃迪，再瞥了眼面前的马修杨，“I think you two are not qualified to listen to what I will say.”
“What do you mean？”埃迪皱眉。
“I want to see the president,William·Moore.”高明赫仰起头，“You know,top secret can only be told to someone in top position.”
马修杨脸色一冷，陷入沉默，“I'm afraid not.”
高明赫揶揄笑道，“Why not? Is it because you have a bad relationship with him?Right?”
马修杨乱了阵脚，期间下意识瞥了埃迪一眼：“Bullshit.”
“Your wife's consumption may have long exceeded your work income. Is it okay to say this?”高明赫故意看向埃迪，“Hey,captain,could you please tell me your weekly salary?Well,let me guess…um…800 anc per week?”
埃迪有些茫然无措，拧着眉头，没太理解他的意图。
“You work desperately for the government every day and risk your life, but you don't even get 800 anc a week. But for Dr. Young's wife, just a meal at a restaurant would cost 1,500 anc or more. What a wasteful woman,Huh?”高明赫朝马修杨笑了笑，转头对埃迪露出悲悯的眼神，“I sincerely feel unfair for you,captain.”
“You don't have any evidence.”马修杨冷笑一声，“How dare you slander my wife?”
高明赫从口袋里掏出一张小票，递给埃迪，埃迪只好接过。
“Something wrong with her credit card that day, and I helped her pay for the meal.”
麦蓝这才想起几个月前在Flora餐厅里遇见的马修太太，不禁在心里感慨高明赫这一步棋下得可真够大的。
埃迪仔细看了眼手里的小票，那上面确实写了马修杨太太的名字，确实显示着“1350”安克的消费额。他愣了很久，“Well…but…”
“May I ask you a question,captain?Just one.”高明赫冲埃迪笑了笑，“Do you work for the government, or the scientist in front of you who is lining his pockets?”
马修杨因为心虚一句话也说不出来。埃迪很快领悟到高明赫的意图，沉吟片刻，按下手里的对讲机：
“Contact Mr. President,right now.”
