Chapter 191 The Lan Family is Very Strange
Chapter 191 The Lan Family is Very Strange
Eugene didn't expect Evelin to say that and his face changed for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.
He took a deep breath and kept asking Evelin questions.
Some people also nodded in agreement.
They also felt that the explanation was too simplistic and unconvincing.
Eugene knew that Evelyn was not easy to deal with, and no one would fully believe what he said unless he revealed some breaking news.
"We have all heard that there have been a lot of rumors online recently that Lan Dian's illness is not due to injury."
His voice grew louder and louder, with a hint of doubt and dissatisfaction.
Everyone's surprised eyes immediately focused on Eugene, waiting for him to continue.
"It's because I was infected with the LE virus!"
Eugene's voice suddenly became sharp, and there was a spark of anger in his eyes.
This sentence was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, instantly causing uproar among the crowd.
Everyone began to whisper and talk.
After Eugene felt Evelyn’s oppressive gaze disappear, the haze in his eyes became even deeper.
"What!?"
Someone exclaimed, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"The Lan family actually disregarded the safety of the people and did such a selfish thing!"
Another person also shouted angrily, his voice full of condemnation of the Lan family.
"You can't judge a person by his appearance! This is terrible. I need to leave here immediately!"
Some people even shouted in panic and turned around to escape from the place.
For a moment, the scene fell into chaos.
People's emotions were aroused, with anger, fear and disappointment intertwined.
"Don't be impatient."
"Everyone, please calm down."
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Vincent quickly walked onto the stage.
Seeing Evelin’s eyes becoming increasingly gloomy, even the head of the Si family came forward to help.
The fear in everyone's hearts overwhelmed their panic, and they gradually calmed down and waited for their next move.
"I participated in the entire Battle of Hades, so I witnessed Garlan getting injured in the war with my own eyes."
"I can testify that the rumors on the Internet are just rumors."
Vincent spoke with a faint smile. Although his smile was charming, there was a strong sense of oppression around him, and there was an unquestionable tone in his words.
Everyone listened quietly, thinking to themselves.
They knew that as the head of the Smith family, Vincent had a noble status and position, so his words naturally carried weight.
But they remain skeptical about the news circulating online.
After all, in the Internet age, information spreads quickly, but it is also normal that it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
However, when Vincent personally came forward to clarify for Garland, everyone had to start re-examining the issue.
If even a figure like Vincent comes forward to testify, then this matter is likely to be groundless.
Moreover, Vincent's tone was firm and confident, which made people feel enough trust in his words.
"You want to get rid of us with just a few words? I don't believe it!"
"If he's really fine, why doesn't he even dare to show his face?"
"There's no smoke without fire. Someone clearly saw him being secretly taken back to the Lan family while unconscious!"
"Besides, don't you think it's strange that the Lan family is so anxious to research the LE virus?"
"There was a researcher who had worked at the research base and escaped. He is my good friend. He told me the secret that the Lan family was trying so hard to cover up!"
Eugene saw that everyone was beginning to waver and believed in Vincent and Evelyn's words, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
He couldn't wait any longer, so he pressed on even harder and told her everything he knew.
"And now he's completely missing. Everyone here knows that the recent news that Lan Dian has been infected with LE disease is no longer a secret rumor."
"I'm afraid that your Lan family has captured my good friend and killed him to silence him in order to cover up the truth!"
Eugene didn't give Evelyn any chance to speak. He approached the stairs step by step, and the words he said were a bombshell, causing an uproar in the audience.
Evelin clenched her fists, her eyes becoming increasingly cold, and she quickly thought of countless reasons to respond in her mind, but these arguments were too high-sounding, and even she herself could not convince herself.
Is the Lan family going to be destroyed in her hands...?
"As the most powerful family in the Northern Continent, the Lan family actually does such dirty things in private!?"
"What else can we believe in!?"
"The Lan family is now unworthy of its position!"
The discussion among the crowd gradually turned to the wrong direction, and Evelin took a deep breath and decided to take a gamble!
"You are right. We are the ones who captured your friend Liu Yu."
Vincent turned back in shock, and immediately understood Evelin’s thoughts.
But the people in the audience didn't understand. They only heard Evelin admit that she abused her power to arrest a civilian.
In an instant, everyone’s faces were filled with disappointment, disappointment with the Lan family and Evelin.
"However, we arrested him because he stole important research data on the LE virus for money and status!"
Who knew that the next second, Evelin’s eyes flashed, shooting straight at Eugene who was smug.
Eugene, who was originally laughing somewhat wildly, froze for a moment, and looked at Evelin in astonishment.
"I wonder if your good friend Liu Yu has told you that he stole a crucial piece of information. Only with this information can the antibody be developed."
"The reason why we are so anxious to research antibodies is because the Dark City can no longer wait. The virus is raging throughout the Dark City, causing countless deaths and injuries."
"You have never been to the underworld, but I have walked through it and seen it with my own eyes."
Evelin faced the doubts and condemnations of the crowd with neither servility nor arrogance.
"The streets are full of children, the elderly, women and children suffering from the virus."
"Some of them have lost their family's breadwinners, and their bodies are not as strong as men. They are tortured by the virus and it is fatal for them to move. They can't even drink a sip of water."
"Therefore, it is urgent for antibodies to be developed."
"We are racing against time to save more innocent lives!"
At the same time, Vincent turned on the big screen behind him and played the photos and videos that he had prepared long ago.
On the big screen, the city of Hades appeared in ruins after the war.
All the people were like broken rag dolls, with festering bodies and tattered clothes, leaning on the rubble, dying and waiting for the arrival of death.
At times like this, death is the only relief for those who have no antibodies.
In addition, Evelin's heartfelt remarks caused the entire audience to be silent, and everyone was extremely shocked.
No one could imagine that the LE virus was so terrible, and it was the first time for everyone to see with their own eyes what a patient infected with the LE virus looked like.
At this moment, when everyone fell into silence, the door opened silently.
