The Hero

Chapter 424 I Love Violence

The food had been served while the dishes were steaming hot, but Suzanne had no desire to start eating

“You can make a car, and if you do not agree with the Heisenberg Group, you can still make your own car. But I can't. I don't have the ability to develop independently in Chinaea, nor do I have the ability to develop and handle self-manufacturing. I don't even have the qualifications to have a patent, though,

“To be honest, I developed a vaccine to prevent certain diseases when I was 20, but at the time, my mentor told me that I was young, and I cannot hold this honor alone because I will be questioned by the public. He'll sign as a developer with me.

“I was very happy to have a good mentor who paid great attention to me, so I signed my name on a series of documents he gave that I could not understand. I hope to be published in academic journals as someone as young as this and gain fame in the medical field.

“But in fact, none of that happened. The next day, I was expelled from the lab for having a personal relationship with a foreign medical personnel and leaking the contents of the laboratory. My student status was also revoked.

“I can't understand it. I obviously have no personal relationship with any foreign medical personnel. Why am I accused? So, I foolishly went to my good-natured mentor, thinking

that he would definitely help me.

"But no. He doesn't even want to see me. He sent his assistant to tell me that he didn't need a brash student like me who would steal his medical results. He thinks I'm rotten and despicable.

“After that, I learned that he became the sole developer of the vaccine and started appearing frequently in various medical journals, magazines, even news. He enjoys the honor of being a new elite in the medical field and as a vaccine developer.

"I'm not angry. I want to gather my experimental process to uncover the truth behind the hypocrite. However, the lab was his, and I had absolutely no right to enter. He even painted me as shameless, despicable, and rude over this.”

When Suzanne said this, her expression was calm, and there did not seem to be much anger in her tone. Still, it was obvious that his gaze was cold.

If possible, he might stab his mentor in the heart with a scalpel he used well “Mr. Kersey, would you choose to stay in Chinaea and do medical research if it was you?”

Suzanne's question left Javier speechless. He asked himself, and it would be difficult for him to stay if it was him. From his point of view, he could definitely make a patronizing statement.

He can say things like how people should be patriotic and how people like them are hard to find. However, if such a thing were to happen to them, how many of them could actually bear it?

His own mentor had deceived him, and there was no way to prove his innocence. Even if he brought the matter to the related department, it was useless.

Therefore, Suzanne's departure seems understandable now.

Suzanne wasn't waiting for Javier's answer, and it didn't seem necessary either as she continued.

“This medical team happened to be formed back then, and they found me, so I agreed.

“Because I am not destined to be famous, why am I giving up on luck? At the very least, I can live well and make my existence more valuable and meaningful than being treated like a golden goose, where others reap the fruits of my hard work!”

Javier reveals his empathy for what Suzanne experienced.

“Indeed, I would have made the same choice if it was me. But if there is a chance, I still hope to return to my country for development. After all, luck does not last forever. Reputation is not."

Javier believes that it is a deadly temptation for any "original" creator who wants their name recorded in history. The original creator of the book could have made the author's name recorded in history, as could the author of the four greatest literary works of all time. Creators of the original invention could have made the names of their inventors go down in history, such as Thomas Edison, who invented the light bulb. Original creators in the medical field can also make the name of its creator recorded in history, just like Edward Jenner, the inventor of the smallpox vaccine.

Javier believes that this will also be very interesting for Suzanne.

But when Javier showed it, Suzanne waved her hand. “Once bitten, twice shy. That's the kind of person like me.

Seemingly aware of the ambiguity of her sentence, Suzanne quickly added, "And the research team I lead."

“However, why should we go back with you? Even if you can provide a similar work environment, what do we get from it?”

After Suzanne asked, Javier replied in earnest, “I can give you everything you have here and everything you don't have, including reputation. Anyone who develops a drug or technology must sign its name.

"I'm not going to make any money by selling reputations, so I guarantee reputations will definitely fall into your hands."

Suzanne laughed, but it sounded uncomfortable. “Forget it, Mr. Kersey. I admit that the Reivaj Group is indeed strong, but that's just me. The total assets of the Reivaj Group are worth about 1.5 billion dollars, right? Our company's annual R&D expenditure is 450 million dollars, and this does not include equipment and construction

the laboratory previously invested.

“ Allow me to tell you, although you can provide the same terms and use your entire company

line, it won't be enough."

Just as Javier was about to say something, Suzanne waved her hand again, gesturing for him to stop talking until he finished speaking.

“And it's not just about the money. It's about the reputation you just mentioned.

“Indeed every researcher wants his name recorded in history, no exception myself. It's like our own child. Who wouldn't want to be known as the mother of her child when her child is famous out there? I like her too.

“But obviously, some things don't go the way you want. Can you guarantee that every developed drug and new medical technology will be signed under us, the developers?

"No, you can't guarantee that. You can't even help me regain my reputation."

As Suzanne says this, Javier asks, "How do you know I can't get it back?"

Suzanne was stunned for a moment. He smiled because he had just heard a joke. He then said, “Then, we can talk about what's next when you restore the honor that my mentor took from me. What do you think? Is that okay?"

Javier understood what Suzanne meant. Suzanne thinks she's just lying and bragging, so she tries to use this obstacle to stop Javier. But for Javier, it was not too much of a constraint.

He extended his hand to Suzanne. "Come, let me feel your warm little hands."

Was he trying to shake hands as his promise to cooperate?

"Trs. Kersey, looks like you're not one to give up easily.” Suzanne reached out and shook her hand gently.

“But my hand is not warm. I'm better at holding the scalpel and getting rid of all the problems.”

Javier nodded, “It was a coincidence. My hands are better at clenching and smashing things, I am more ruthless.

Suzanne smiled, “I like violence. It's easier.”
