Mysterious creature sightings

Chapter 83 Seems like he has become a regular employee of the Special Investigation Division?

The entire mountain col was surrounded by a boundary line. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the local police station took away all the injured people and the exhumed bodies.

Xu Jiayan was negotiating with people from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the archaeologist was responsible for telling the police about the corpses.

People came and went, Ling Jiangyue stood there like a ghost, watching Lin Zheng and the others being injected with medicine and pushed away.

After them, there was Xin Wen who was still breathing.

The burns on her face were hideous and terrifying, and she was still wailing intermittently.

When the stretcher carrying Xin Zhi's body passed by, she turned her head and looked at it, making two ouch sounds in her mouth. Tears flowed from the end of her eyes to the wound, and the pain caused the blood vessels in her slightly intact forehead to bulge.

One twin's "disconnection" seemed to be somewhat beneficial to the other. At least Xin Wen no longer felt the intense pain Xin Zhi felt before his death.

It's a pity that their telepathy experiment completely failed.

Ling Jiangyue looked at her intently, and seemed to be looking at other people through her.

"Ling Jiangyue! Get in the car and leave!" Xu Jiayan called her loudly from more than ten meters away.

The exclusive call with a name instantly pulled her out of her distraction.

Ling Jiangyue said a clear "Hey", turned around and trotted to follow, and followed the large army away from the col.

After leaving the barren mountain, she and Xu Jiayan got into the car that escorted Lin Zheng and the others until they were delivered to the door of the operating room.

During this period, people from the 507th Bureau arrived. Xu Jiayan, as the only member of the Special Investigation Division who was not harmed, hurriedly transferred to another place to use this time to study the mechanism of action of those toads.

She was the only one left outside the operating room, sitting on the cold stainless steel seat in the waiting area, lowering her head and counting the number of floor tiles.

A doctor passed by in the corridor. When he saw her, he naturally handed the blank file to her.

"Someone from the Special Investigation Division? Sign."

"Ah..." She leaned on the seat and opened her mouth slightly, a little confused, but when she saw the doctor's frown, she stood up obediently and said, "Oh, okay."

She turned the pen around and wrote her name one stroke at a time.

It seems like he's signing a letter of intent for a life insurance policy for someone with a special relationship... It's a bit weird to describe it, but that's probably what it means.

——She seems to have become a regular employee of the Special Investigation Branch, at least in the eyes of others.

Because of this episode, she no longer felt bored while waiting. She kept shaking her legs with a smile on her face.

Two hours later, Xu Jiayan rushed back and saw her looking at the red-lit operating room with a smile on her face, her eyelids twitching.

Are you expecting one of them to die?

Ling Jiangyue sensed his arrival from across the corridor and tilted her head to look at him before he could stand still.

"Has the research progressed?"

"Yes." Xu Jiayan took a deep breath, sat next to her, and picked out something he could say to tell her.

"The few remaining toads in the tomb have been brought over. They have different poisons, but they are all very strong. The toxins are mainly concentrated in the secretory glands behind the eyes. The uneven skin is full of toxins similar to those of ordinary toads. It’s not very powerful.”

"Brother Lin and the others have compared their blood samples with toad toxins. Now we can confirm that it is the neurotoxins in their secretory glands that cause psychosomatic hallucinations."

"It's good news, right?" Ling Jiangyue asked, "This toxin has a delay effect, which is much better than encountering a poison dart frog and having to be sent directly to the funeral home in less than 5 minutes." Xu Jiayan rubbed his face. : "Yes. Unfortunately, less than half a minute after the toxin leaves the living body, it will lose the activity of one of its substances, turning the toxin that originally caused hallucinations into a deadly poison with one hit."

This is why Xin Zhi died.

"So," he leaned back in his chair and added, "we cannot analyze the specific reasons why this neurotoxin causes psychosomatic diseases based on the performance of the experimental subjects."

The team was almost wiped out, but the reason was unclear, which was indeed a bit frustrating.

Ling Jiangyue imitated the behavior of some people in the past and comforted him steadily: "It doesn't matter, isn't that what work is? The world is full of wonders, and keeping it mysterious is one of their characteristics. Isn't this also the reason why your special office exists? In an infinitely mysterious world, scientific theories are used to explain the existence of limited creatures, and scientific means are used to contain them."

After hearing this, Xu Jiayan looked at her and smiled: "I didn't think you were the kind of person who would say such things."

Ling Jiangyue showed a standard smile: "But I do know how to say it."

Talking to people with different magnetic fields didn't bring much pleasure, so she turned around and changed the topic to something she was more interested in.

"I remember when you went down to the tomb, the professor said that toads have fungi? Could that be the reason for their different effects?"

Xu Jiayan shook his head: "I left that to Professor Zhang for research. I'm not very good at fungi, and I didn't trust him here, so I rushed over after leaving it to him. I didn't have any research conclusions before I left."

"Okay. Because you gave me a new understanding of the energy of fungi, I paid more attention to the fungi in the tomb at that time, and thought it would be helpful..." She said pretending to be disappointed, and her shoulders sank a little.

"It's okay." Xu Jiayan patted her shoulder, stood up, and exhaled a long breath. "The situation is very good now. We just need to wait for Brother Lin and the others to come out. You can think of something relaxing, such as a late night snack. What, where will I sleep at night—"

He pointed to the operating room: "——We have to stay here for at least three days."

Ling Jiangyue nodded seriously, saying that he would think about it carefully.

Xu Jiayan: "Then please stay here for a while. I have to report on the Xin Wen brothers and sisters."

"it is good."

The story of Xin Wen and Xin Zhi can be summed up very simply. It’s probably just a summary of the movie——

A pair of twins who like to study mysterious events have wanted to be different since they were young.

One day, they learned from some mysterious manuscripts about a creature that could produce strange hallucinations. They thought it could help them improve the strength of the twins' telepathy and make themselves superhumans, so they began to research frantically.

Finally, at the moment when success was about to happen, one person died and the other was injured, and it came to a sad ending.

It is indeed very simple. The main thing is how to let the people in the bureau distinguish whether this is a "copied fantasy movie summary" or a real report.

Ling Jiangyue thought of Xin Wen.

Xin Zhi is dead, and his death was quite strange and tragic, which is impressive. I am afraid that I will not be able to forget that scene for 20 years.

I wonder how Xin Wen is feeling now. Can she come out of the operating room alive?If she survives, what will she do next?
The twin telepathy between them has been strengthened. The death of her brother must have hit her harder than the average brother and sister. Will she give up this path?

Or should we overturn the research path based on twins and change it to the transformation of oneself?
"Ding——" The lights in the operating room turned green, the door opened, and a doctor came out.

"Lin Zheng, Lin Jia, and Jiang Yuxing are currently in stable condition."

"Xin Wen is resistant to anesthetics and has a weak will to live, so he couldn't be saved. I'm sorry."
