The villain in the book: I was eavesdropped by the heroine

Chapter 63 Highlander Syndrome
As soon as Huang Yu said this.

Han Yuyao was still a little confused, "Is it the legendary bone shrinking technique?"

The Han family is a thousand-year-old martial arts family. As a direct descendant of the Han family, Han Yuyao is naturally very familiar with the bone shrinking technique.

If you have to have enough charisma to commit serial murders and still look like a child, then this is the only possibility.

"No, although the bone shrinking technique can make an adult's body smaller to the greatest extent, it will not change overall."

"And he can't be considered a child. He's just an adult who has shrunk his bones and walks with a weird posture."

Huang Yu shook his head, denying the idea, and continued to look at the head of the Mo family.

"Could it be..."

Mo Yong seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed.

"Uncle Mo, have you thought of anything?"

Huang Yu was extremely calm, looking at the other person quietly.

The reason why he didn't tell Han Yuyao directly, but used the mouth of the Mo family to tell the inside story about the serial murder case.

I just want to take this opportunity to learn more about the major disputes in Tianhai City.

After all, only by retaining the power of Tianhai City and Xiao Zhan's stubbornly opposite family to the greatest extent can they survive in the safest way.

Mo Yong nodded, his expression slowly becoming serious.

He slowly took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, and was silent for a while.

After taking a deep breath, he exhaled the smoke with a long sigh.

"If it's an adult who looks like a child, there's only one possibility."

"That's...Highlander Syndrome."

"Highlander Syndrome?"

Hearing this unfamiliar term, Han Yuyao was stunned.

"What kind of disease is this? How come I've never heard of it?"

The head of the Mo family took a puff of cigarette and continued to explain with a serious expression.

"This is a condition that causes the patient's body's aging process to be slowed down."

"It has only been officially named by the medical community in recent years. Because this symptom is too complicated, many people do not think it is a disease, so it has not been recognized by the mainstream medical community until today."

"Most think it's just a genetic pathology caused by a genetic defect."

"but……"

Mo Yong paused and put out the cigarette in his hand.

"This is a recessive genetic disease. Different from the genetic defect of dwarfism, this is a real genetic inheritance."

"The symptoms of Highlander Syndrome are very obvious when you are 50 or [-] years old, and it is very likely that you will look like you are seven or eight years old."

"For example, in ancient times, especially in the Middle Ages in Western Europe."

"Most patients with this disease will be regarded by the church as evil witchcraft or magic performed by evil witches, and they will basically be burned alive."

"The most typical one is Joan of Arc in France during the European Middle Ages."

"This national hero who originally led France to regain its territory and hit England hard was under the joint pressure of the Inquisition and the Holy See of England."

“Joan of Arc, suffering from Highlander Syndrome, was burned alive.”

"It wasn't until a few decades ago that he was rehabilitated and made a saint."

"Of course, there are some rare cases of this disease."

Mo Yong drank all the water in the cup in front of him, and then continued to add.

"In this recessive genetic disease, some people will grow up like normal people early on."

"It occurs suddenly in your thirties or forties, or at other times."

"For example, Joan of Arc in the European Middle Ages."

"Joan of Arc's symptoms suddenly occurred during the war against medieval England, and she was discovered by others, so that she was regarded as an evil witch who could perform evil black magic."

"But more often than not, in ancient times in our country, it was regarded as a miracle of rejuvenation."

"For example, during the Han Dynasty, Liu An, the king of Huainan, had eight immortals who could rejuvenate their youth, called the Eight Gongs."

"It is said that the Eighth Prince was worshiped by Huainan King Liu An until his death, and he still looked like a child."

When it comes to illness, Mo Yong can't stop.

After finishing speaking, return to the topic.Mo Yongcai seemed to suddenly think of something, and suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of shock, and he looked at Huang Yu.

"You mean..."

"That's right, it's just like what you thought, Uncle Mo."

Huang Yu nodded.

After receiving this answer, Mo Yong's head banged, and he stood there as if struck by lightning, his face full of disbelief.

"This...how is this possible?"

Seeing the mysterious conversation between the two, Han Yuyao couldn't hold it any longer.

"Damn scum, what kind of riddle are you trying to solve?"

She looked at Huang Yu, her eyes full of questions.

But Huang Yu looked at her and shook his head without saying anything. Instead, he looked at Uncle Mo.

"Some words are inappropriate for me as a junior to say."

"Let Uncle Mo speak for himself."

Hearing this, Han Yuyao's eyes moved to Mo Yong.

At this time, Mo Yong had already lit up a cigarette and started smoking.

There was a trace of unsolvable sadness between his brows. Shi Hu was thinking about something, and his cloudy eyes were staring at one place blankly.

After a long silence, until he finished smoking all the cigarettes, Mo Yong sighed and spoke slowly.

"I understand."

He kept recalling bits and pieces of the past, as if he had returned to the time when he first met Xia He.

An answer slowly came to mind.

No matter how much he couldn't believe it, after eliminating all possibilities, this was the only truth left.

"There should be many murderers involved in this serial murder case in Tianhai City."

Mo Yong threw the cigarette butt into the trash can aside and slowly looked at Han Yuyao.

"Yes."

Han Yuyao nodded.

According to police investigations, although in the early stages, they still thought he was a serial murderer.

However, similar cases continued to occur one after another.

Although each of the buttons is very closely related, there are some differences.

If it is not an accident, it can only be a gang crime.

This is a highly confidential police matter.

only……

Han Yuyao couldn't help but look at Huang Yu out of the corner of her eye, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

She knew that this bastard knew a lot about the future, but she didn't expect that he knew even such secrets.

After all, if the case remains unsolved, this file will remain secretly sealed.

Only with permission from above can we openly collect clues from the public.

After getting this answer, Mo Yong's face, which was originally in his 40s, became a bit older.

"If there are multiple murderers, then one of them should be Xia He."

"what?"

Listening to the conversation between the two, Han Yuyao initially focused on the daughter of the head of the Mo family.

I feel that his daughter must be closely related to the serial murder case.

Han Yuyao was very shocked.

One of the real culprits in the serial murder case turned out to be Xia He?

What happened to the daughter?

Originally, this serial murder case with no clues was already complicated enough, but I didn't expect it to be related to the Mo family again.

Thinking of this, Han Yuyao's expression changed.
