Chapter 4222: The Other Side 191

At the time, Alice was a young doctor. She was not an authority in the field, and therefore helpless against such a plague. After Gong Jie and a few others were quarantined, Hurricane’s medical center went out of control for a long time.

No one knew how bad a damage the virus could cause, which meant that no one knew how long Gong Jie could survive the infection. Many of the infected mercenaries who had returned from Africa with him did not survive.

Therefore, at that time, Alice was extremely nervous. The important thing was… Even though the preliminary vaccine had been created, no one dared to put it into use without it having undergone trial. And of course, no one dared test it out on Gong Jie.

So, at that point, driven by some unknown motivating factor, she turned up in the lab and calmly offered herself as an experimental subject.

Everyone was overjoyed.

At the time, Alice was very young. She was working at the medical center and had not yet joined the Hurricane Group. She was just an intern and certainly wasn’t experienced. Hence, she wasn’t considered a valuable staff member from the perspective of the others. However, since she was willing to pay the price with her body, the researchers who studied vaccines were naturally pleasantly surprised.

Except, Alice had also been told in advance that because this was the first version of the vaccine and it had never been tested, her life could be in danger if the trial failed. Alice understood, but was unafraid.

She did not hesitate to use herself as an experimental subject. However, as expected, the experiment failed and she was infected by the virus. She underwent emergency rescue for several days before coming out of danger. Further, because she had participated in human experimentation, she was struck off by the hospital she worked in. It was also because of this infection that she became barren.

Due to the viral attack, most of the chromosomes in her body had been damaged. Even if she could give birth, there was an overwhelmingly high chance that the child would be defective.

So she gave up the idea

“You did it for Gong Jie…?”

“…” Alice was suddenly silent. She pursed her lips, and merely said, “You can take me as a sort of Virgin Mary, sacrificing my life for the health of the people of the world.”

Her nonchalance now made it difficult to imagine the pain of her decision then. However, Alice did not say it aloud that indeed, she had been willing to go through this for Gong Jie.

She’d met Gong Jie by chance, before entering the Hurricane Group, as a medical volunteer heading for Africa. And it was this one meeting that changed everything forever.

She’d dreamed of entering the Hurricane Group and becoming part of its medical center. Instead, as soon as she’d arrived, she’d had to treat Gong Jie, who had contracted the virus. She did it almost without thinking, even though she knew that this outcome was definitely not something she could bear. It was just that at that time, she was hot-headed and did not think things over.

Gong Jie didn’t even know about this. Neither did Alice speak about it very much. She had only found out that she had become infertile after a series of full-body examinations following her recovery.

She found it hard to accept, but she did not have a choice. The only comfort was that Gong Jie came out safe and sound. As the result of Alice’s infection, the vaccine was perfected and he fully recovered. The cruel virus left no mark on his body.
