"Your sister is... Fang Mingyue?" Shen Ge asked tentatively with a strange look on his face.

Fang Yaori said excitedly: "Of course, otherwise I would have several sisters. Brother-in-law, why are you here? My sister said you came to Dajing a few days ago, and I said I would take you to play around. Today... cough, brother-in-law, don't tell my sister about what happened today, otherwise she will definitely interrupt me..."

"stop!"

Seeing Fang Yaori babble non-stop, even getting more and more outrageous, Shen Ge quickly interrupted him and said, "First of all, your sister and I are just colleagues, at most we are comrades-in-arms who have shared life and death together; secondly, does Fang Mingyue know about this thing on your neck?"

"My sister doesn't know about this, it's a secret... Hey, the three of you put on your clothes and go out, there's nothing for you to do here." Fang Yaori said to the three women huddled in the corner of the bed.

The three women felt as if they had been pardoned when they heard this. They had served Fang Yaori for the money and power. This was so strange and weird for the detective that they were afraid they would be silenced if they continued listening. They quickly grabbed the clothes on the ground, not caring whose they belonged to, and put them on while running out.

After the women left, Shen Ge leaned against the door with his hands folded, as if he was going to treat him as a weirdo if Fang Yaori didn't give him a reasonable explanation.

"Sister..."

Fang Yaori just opened his mouth, met Shen Ge's cold eyes, quickly swallowed the last word, and continued: "Although our Fang family is still influential in the military, I... didn't have a good reputation when I was a child, and my grades in various subjects were not up to standard, so I was eliminated from the anti-counterfeiting agent."

"But now the weird is in vogue. If I don't become an anti-weird agent, it will be a disgrace to the Fang family. My family thought that my sister had just been promoted to captain, so they asked me to find a job in the Special Strategy Department 2 and wait for an opportunity in the future... to become an anti-weird fighter or agent."

"But there didn't seem to be any idle positions in the Special Policy Department II, and my sister was unwilling to open a backdoor for me. Fortunately, although I was a bad guy before, I still had some face, and I happened to meet an old acquaintance in the Research Department. Seeing that I wanted to join the department, he begged Master to find me an assistant job."

"Later, an experimental accident occurred when the research department was developing a new strange antibody. I was accidentally caught and forced to be injected with the monster sample, and then I became like this." Fang Yaori said, pointing to the blood-red tumor on his neck and smiling awkwardly.

"Since this research on monsters is top secret of Special Policy Division 2, I have no choice but to be a confidential person. I can't even tell my sister or my parents about it. But they promised me that if the research is successful, they will immediately promote me to vice-captain."

"Oh, by the way, the research has entered the second phase. They said that the third phase means that the 'antibody' has been successfully developed!"

Shen Ge frowned upon hearing this and stared at Fang Yaori without saying a word, as if he was examining whether what he said was true or false: "Secret? You can't even tell your family, but you told me?"

"This... after all, this thing was seen by my sister... and by you. If I don't give you a satisfactory answer, you will definitely tell my sister. Then not only will I be held accountable, but my family will not let me off easily." Fang Yaori said with a look of grievance.

Shen Ge snorted, "Are you stupid? A captain-level position not only requires the ministers of each department to draw up a list, but also requires multiple assessments. How can an antibody researcher have this right? You accepted a live experiment, and if you die, they will say that you were infiltrated by a weirdo organization and succeeded... Humph, if you succeeded, do you think you can still live?"

"Ah?" Fang Yaori was completely stunned.

Shen Ge is still unclear whether Fang Yaori is acting or is really stupid, but it doesn’t matter. Regardless of whether he is acting or not, he can use this point to follow the clues and investigate further.

"First of all, the weirdo sample you received is a common ability of the Twelve Branches. In other words, the original experimental accident was probably not an accident, but a premeditated one. Whether this conspiracy is against your Fang family or the entire Special Policy Department, it is inseparable from the people of the Twelve Branches."

"Secondly, the Special Policy Department strictly prohibits live research. What kind of confidential research do you think the Special Policy Department 2 can do that would ignore the regulations of the headquarters?"

"In the end, even your sister couldn't find a way to place a piece of trash like you in Special Policy Division 2. Just relying on your connections as a drinking buddy, you were able to get into the Special Policy Division that studies confidential information. Please use your brain... With your current status, what do they want? They just think you're stupid."

"..." Fang Yaori looked at Shen Ge with tears in his eyes. At this moment, he had the illusion of facing his own sister, who always belittled him.

"Brother-in-law, I'm not that bad..."

Fang Yaori was halfway through his words when Shen Ge glared at him, so he quickly changed his address: "Detective Shen, I'm not as bad as you say, am I? Besides, if it's really like what you said, then what on earth are they trying to do with all this effort? Besides, after I participated in the antibody research, I feel a lot stronger, with infinite strength and endless energy!"

"Oh?" Shen Ge raised his eyebrows, and the next second he was standing in front of Fang Yaori. He raised his hand, grabbed his neck and lifted him up.

Fang Yaori pried Shen Ge's fingers painfully, but found that it was like prying steel and they did not move at all. He wanted to beg for mercy, but no sound came out.

In just a few seconds, Fang Yaori rolled his eyes and was about to die, but Shen Ge threw him onto the bed and let him go.

Too stupid, too weak. This kind of person is obviously unlikely to be a member of the Twelve Zodiac Signs. Moreover, even if he really was one of the Twelve Zodiac Signs, he would have died if he had not put up a fight in the situation just now.

However, Shen Ge was also very curious about why such a person was used as a "chess piece" by the Twelve Zodiac Signs. What was the other party's purpose or what they were planning?

"Detective Shen, what I said... is... the truth." Fang Yaori covered his neck and coughed painfully a few times, speaking with difficulty.

Shen Ge stared at him coldly and said, "I stayed in the Special Policy Department 2 two days ago, and your sister also took me to visit the Research Department. I saw that each department has a clear research goal. Who is in charge of the confidential experiment you mentioned?"

"Chen, Manager Chen. Manager Chen is in charge, and the research department is not in the Special Policy Department 2, but at the military base." Fang Yaori replied.

"Manager Chen? What does he look like?" Shen Ge asked.

Fang Yaori briefly described Manager Chen's appearance, and he sounded like an ordinary middle-aged man, but for some reason Shen Ge gradually "overlapped" Manager Chen's figure with an old acquaintance.

His surname is Chen, and he is also involved in the so-called "antibody research". Could it be such a coincidence?
Shen Ge narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment and made a decision, then said to Fang Yaori, "Take me to the research department."

"Okay!" Fang Yaori agreed without any hesitation. He was so straightforward that Shen Ge even suspected that the other party had set a trap for him.

But Shen Ge didn't know that Fang Mingyue had been praising Shen Ge at home since she became his little fangirl. She was the first to say that the first pair of strange detectives in the Great Heavenly Kingdom came from her. Of course, Fang Mingyue might just admire and worship Shen Ge's ability, but it obviously didn't sound that way to her family and Fang Yaori.

Besides, it is normal to admire the strong. Fang Mingyue instilled Shen Ge's strength in front of Fang Yaori every day, which eventually led to the misunderstanding of "brother-in-law".

The point that Fang Mingyue explained the most to Fang Yaori was that she had encountered strange events several times and it was Shen Ge who helped her through the difficulties. To cooperate with Shen Ge, one only needs to follow two words -

obedient.

As long as they obey Shen Ge's command, they can escape unscathed from a disaster as severe as the Sakura Island incident that could destroy a country.

Fang Yaori has admired his sister since he was young. What his sister says is more effective than what his parents say. So when Shen Ge asked him to go to the research department, he agreed without even thinking about it.

The two drove out of the hotel. It was only eight o'clock in the evening, but it was already completely dark. The road to the military base gave people an illusion of gloom. There were very few vehicles on the road, and it was even difficult to see pedestrians.

Shen Ge felt something was wrong, but Fang Yaori was used to it: "Director Chen said this was arranged by the headquarters. Because the research is too important and it involves samples of strange people, they are worried that there will be experimental accidents that will implicate innocent people. Therefore, they borrowed the jurisdiction of the military base to build this secret research institute."

"Master, a strange energy reaction has been detected ahead." Classmate Xiao Qi condensed a bit of rotten blood next to Shen Ge's earlobe and conveyed the message to him through this "headphone".

"Stop the car." Shen Ge said.

Although Fang Yaori didn't understand what Shen Ge wanted to do, he still stopped the car on the side of the road as instructed: "Detective Shen, what happened?"

Shen Ge did not answer, but got off the car and followed Xiao Qi's instructions, quietly moving towards the sentry post ahead.

Fang Yaori quickly got out of the car and followed. He didn't know what Shen Ge was going to do, but his sister told him not to question any of Shen Ge's decisions, so he could only follow quietly.

Shen Ge did not stop Fang Yaori from following. If he deliberately made some noise to attract the monster's attention, his "purpose" would be exposed as early as possible, saving himself from having to act with him.

Unexpectedly, Fang Yaori just followed Shen Ge quietly without any strange behavior. This move made Shen Ge feel confused.

The two men groped their way to the vicinity of the outpost, but found that there was no one guarding it. There was a tent set up next to the woods not far behind the outpost. The strange thing was that the tent was tattered, as if it had been torn by some wild beast, and the bloodstains in front of the tent had not completely dried up, as if it had happened not long ago.

Fang Yaori lowered his voice and said, "Detective Shen, this is the T173 outpost. As far as I know, there are hundreds of such outposts along the road. Once a problem occurs in one of them, the other outposts will immediately find the problem... This situation is obviously not right."

Shen Ge glanced at Fang Yaori and wanted to say, "Nonsense, this person is dead, how can I not see something is wrong?" But then he thought that the Fang family seemed to be descendants of Paramecium, and he could not communicate with them according to normal people's thinking.

Take Fang Mingyue for example. She really made people feel upset when they first met her, but after getting along with her, they found that she was stubborn and as long as they followed her will, it was actually very easy to get along with her.

"Aren't you quite smart? You have good observation skills too. How could you be tricked into doing live research?" Shen Geyan gave an insincere compliment.

After being praised, Fang Yaori instantly became more confident, and said with his back straightened: "Right, brother-in-law, I said that I am not as bad as you say, as long as... hehe, hehe."

When the name "brother-in-law" came out, Shen Ge's face darkened. Fang Yaori quickly smiled awkwardly and got back to the point: "Actually, I don't have any other hobbies. I just like to linger in the flowers... As a result, I was deceived by a fake white lotus. The other party came to my house with a big belly and made trouble, and I was kicked out. I went to my sister for help, but she almost broke my legs. I could only look for my sister's suitor... Ahem, help, I have never been in contact with the Special Strategy Department. I was lured by the other party and went to work in the Research Department without knowing what was going on."

"I thought that after all, it was a research department directly under the Special Policy Department 2. If I could really get a position, I would be able to hold my head up high in front of my family."

"It's a good thing that you're here, Detective Shen, otherwise I would have been sold out and still be counting money for the other person..." Fang Yaori said with a wry smile.

Shen Ge didn't know how to respond for a moment. He thought that Fang Yaori, a young man from the Twelve Tribes, came here to show his weakness to the enemy and then trick him into a trap step by step. Now it seems that it is not what he thought. Fang Yaori is just "stupid".

However, judging from what Fang Yaori said, the other party really wanted to use his identity as a member of the Fang family to do something, or at least wanted to take action against Fang Mingyue.

After Mr. Fang returned, he formed an internal investigation team, whose main purpose was to uncover the twelve spies planted in the Special Initiatives Department. It was not surprising that the other party would target Fang's family, not to mention that a fool like Fang Yaori was sent to them as a "prisoner" for nothing.

"Ugh."

Shen Ge sighed in his heart. He guessed that when Fang Mingyue found out that her brother was stupid enough to be tricked by the Twelve Branches into doing a live experiment, the punishment would probably not be as simple as breaking his legs.

While the two were talking, Xiao Qi detected the specific location of the strange energy reaction, and at the same time Shen Ge also received a message from the system prompting him of strange appearances.

"Detective Shen, there seems to be someone up ahead?" Fang Yaori heard faint rustling sounds coming from the grove. He looked closely and found a figure swaying.

Shen Ge had already locked onto the opponent and was sure that it must be a weirdo, but he did not rush to attack. Instead, he prepared to retreat behind Fang Yaori to see what he would do.

Unexpectedly, just as Shen Ge took a step back, Fang Yaori quickly retreated behind him. His movements were so fast that he almost thought that the other party was going to sneak attack him.

"Detective Shen, something's wrong, it doesn't look like a human! This is a key security area. If a monster appears here, won't even the military base fall?" Fang Yaori said with a slightly trembling voice.

Before he finished speaking, the shadowy figure had already staggered out of the woods. Strictly speaking, it was no longer a human being...

The man's lower body still had human legs, but from the abdomen upwards, it was like a blood-red tumor wrapped around the entire body, and more than a dozen rotten tentacles stretched out from his back. He walked towards the two of them like an octopus with two legs! (End of this chapter)
