him under the stars

Chapter 66 Exceptions
When the sun was shining, the door creaked.Shen Dong closed the door and turned around. The equipment he was carrying was placed on the coffee table. Before his hand touched the pot, a glass of water was poured in, which felt warm and cool to the touch.

"How is it?" Han Chen asked, pouring himself a glass too.

"Blood sugar is still on the high side, the same as before. Blood pressure has risen quite a bit." Shen Dong eased the dryness in his throat, and turned to him with his brows still frowning: "Xu Haiqing, whom I recommended to you before, is already a well-known expert in rare plants , is my grandfather's student again, even he doesn't know his name, what kind of case are you investigating?"

According to the regulations, the details of the case cannot be disclosed. Shen Dong is not interested in the case. He is just worried that the young man may not be able to bear the heavy work for several days before his grandfather has just returned from England.And Han Chen, without arranging anyone, guarded here personally, which further showed the degree of danger of the case.

"Sorry." Han Chen slowly swallowed the cool pure water in his mouth, and after a moment of silence, he only said these two words.

"I always feel that your attitude towards this case is a bit different." After Shen Dong finished speaking in a low voice, he shook his head again: "I'll come back tomorrow."

He rolled up his cuffs and took a few steps. "you……"

Han Chen raised his eyes lightly.

"... Forget it." After a pause, he laughed and turned to leave.

For a moment, he panicked for Han Chen's safety.

Behind him, Han Chen rubbed his robe against the side of the cup with no emotion on his face.

"He's worried about you." A calm and serious voice suddenly sounded at this moment.

When Han Chen turned his head, the old man was opening the door, walking over with obvious fatigue on his face.Yao Wan, who had been silently by the side, straightened up unconsciously, looking at the few pieces of paper in his hand.

"Professor Shen." Han Chen put down his cup and walked over, his eyes narrowed. "you……"

One day before the agreed time, he completed the simulation breeding analysis ahead of schedule? !
Professor Shen's upper body is slightly bent, but his eyes are clear.He handed over the analysis results and said slowly, "I think... I should worry about you too."

"This new type of plant that has not been discovered and named can completely replace poppy. To be precise, it greatly surpasses it. If my estimate is correct, the alkaloid content it contains is at least ten times that of poppy. The extract The anesthetic properties in the drug will increase geometrically."

long silence.

Han Chen looked down at the analysis results and passed them on to Yao Wan.

No one knows the meaning of Professor Shen's words better than her.When receiving the materials, Yao Wan clearly felt her breathing stopped for a moment, followed by a violent heartbeat.She read it word by word, slowly closed it, raised her eyes, and met Han Chen's deep, deep gaze.

"Officer Yao, it's time for a joint meeting between the two parties." He said flatly.

"...It's not a two-party meeting." Yao Wan gripped the edge of the paper slightly with her fingers, paused, and said with a heavy face, "It's a tripartite meeting."

"Sky." Her voice was cold: "It's the name of this new type of medicine."

The military first discovered the psychotropic drug in a veteran with post-traumatic stress disorder.

His sudden death was too strange. At that time, some comrades did not believe it. They persevered in in-depth investigation and finally found the channel to report it.But in the end, the investigation found that the highly dangerous and fatal medicine flowing out of the channel was nothing but a failed product, and it could only be said to be an unknown psychotropic drug with excessive content.Because the Narcotics Division has rich experience in this area, the two parties have reached a cooperation.

According to the in-depth investigation of the anti-narcotics police, this kind of drug appeared earlier than everyone expected, and there were suspected cases more than [-] years ago.But this is just a screening in case of suspicion, not supported by evidence.And the channels for continuing the investigation are almost blocked—all the involved personnel died in a logical way that complies with people's general social cognition.

They were wrong.

Sky is not a new type of drug that is simply developed, but a product that is premeditated, planned, and supported by powerful and unpredictable forces.

This force is secretive and huge.So much so that its profit channels, pharmaceutical methods, and all the models they are familiar with have not been discovered.

It is hidden under the vast and peaceful sea surface, spreading seemingly silently, devouring everyone who might find it, and eventually... it will also sweep the entire sea area.

As for Han Chen, his attention and investigation of the accident case attracted the attention of the Narcotics Division. Yao Wan was sent to follow up. After confirming his identity and progress, he could be considered to invite him to participate in the "clearance plan".

The closer you are to Han Chen, the closer you are to Sky.Yao Wan couldn't help but want to see how far he could find out, but she didn't expect...

"You found the evidence directly." She took a light breath, and shifted her gaze to the analysis results: "The original plant that made Sky, with the analysis results of this flower, we can report it to the Ministry of Public Security, and the investigation team can There is further action."

Her voice quivered a little.

Han Chen's eyebrows moved slightly, and he was about to ask something when he glanced at Professor Shen and paused.

"Do you have any questions?"

Professor Shen raised his head, his frowning brows relaxed slightly: "It's nothing, occupational disease." He slowly sat aside and said, "Whether a plant is a grass or a flower, there are different names. It's like the butterfly grass in my house, also known as wearing Vine golden orchid, and that strain of peacock grass, also called yellow chrysanthemum. This new plant is not divided into classes and families, so please don’t call it a flower so easily, little girl.”

Yao Wan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "I made a slip of the tongue, what you said..."

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by a low and clear voice.

"That is to say, experts generally don't easily call plants that they don't understand as flowers or grass?" Han Chen asked.

"It's not normal." Professor Shen said, "It's absolutely not."

After a long time, Han Chen turned his head and his eyes became a little deep.Yao Wan sensed something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong?"

He glanced at Yao Wan, and said in a gentle voice, "I remembered something."

"The overall black flower is very rare, and similar plants have been recorded all over the world. This is probably a new type of plant."

Han Chen narrowed his eyes slightly as if the man's serious and detailed explanation was still in front of his eyes. "Expert, family..." He chewed these two words slowly, and something flashed across his face very quickly.

In the dark night, there is always a calm atmosphere.

The informant who was guarding the downstairs of Xu Xing's house was smoking a cigarette to refresh his mind. When he saw him, he took out the cigarette case and threw it over.Han Chen took it with one hand and pulled out one.He usually smokes Su cigarettes, but in fact he likes strong cigarettes the most.Such a spicy and bitter breath can easily take away emotions.

"Her brother has returned to the team." The informant squatted on the ground, flicked the ash, and exhaled: "Before I left, I came here to thank me, but I didn't ask about you."

"You spend too little time with her. Be careful that she will change her mind in the future." He joked.

Han Chen looked up, the window belonging to Xu Xing's room, the light through the pale pink curtains, a slender silhouette was faintly visible, leaning slightly on the desk.

He looked at it for a while, threw the cigarette case back, lowered his head and lit the fire, and said calmly: "There will be actions in the future, and I will be busy for a while. Her safety will be left to you and Lao Ye."

The informant froze for a moment, then nodded: "I see, don't worry."

The security situation these days made people inevitably start to slack off. Before the operation, Han Chen came to remind him that either the case was related to this girl, or the operation was too dangerous.No matter what, from today onwards, they must renew their spirits.

He should be very solemn.

Han Chen glanced at him and smiled lightly: "Don't be too nervous, there are other people besides you... I have filed a report, in the name of my fiancée."

The informant's expression became even more serious, to this extent?
"A dangerous move?" he asked.

With a cigarette in his mouth, Han Chen casually said, "Just in case."

He didn't speak for a moment.

"You go back first tonight."

Hearing this, the informant reacted for a while, then laughed out loud, no longer struggling, raised the cigarette between his fingers at him, and walked away.

He didn't come to take a look, but to stay overnight.

In the hotel with bright lights, Xu Haiqing left the box with a slight sway, walked out of the corner and straightened up, raised his hand to stroke the folds of his clothes, and entered the bathroom without haste.While washing his hands in front of the mirror, someone opened the door and came out. He looked like he had drunk too much, grabbed the sink and started to vomit.

He glanced annoyedly, and was about to leave after throwing the tissue into the trash can, when the drunk suddenly bumped into him.

"Bang" sound.

Xu Haiqing cursed in a low voice with blurred vision, and groped on the ground with his hands.

"Is this... your glasses?" the man asked inarticulately.

"Thank you." Resisting the sour smell coming from his nostrils, Xu Haiqing took back his glasses, got up and left without wanting to stay any longer.After leaving the bathroom, I immediately wiped my glasses with the wet towel I carried with me. Someone passed by, bringing a black shadow, and a soft and low voice came at the same time: "No. 11 bus stop."

He didn't stop moving, put on his glasses, and walked towards the box with slightly swaying steps.

The night is like a giant beast that can devour people, and it opens its mouth wide to aim at the prey.

On the cool road, Xu Haiqing carried her bag and disappeared into the crowd.

"I reported it to the person above to clean it up?" he asked.

Someone looked down at the phone and walked not far away, "That's a fake name, and the real identity was found out based on the monitoring of the Plant Protection Bureau. Now, he should have disappeared."

Xu Haiqing frowned after hearing this: "Why does that person have the pattern of 'capsule flower', have you found it?"

Passers-by pass by from time to time, their voices are noisy, but the man's deep and cold voice is exceptionally clear: "Mind your own business, and someone else will naturally take care of it. When will the latest batch of 'capsule flowers' mature?"

No. 11 bus stop has arrived, Xu Haiqing stopped: "There are still 12 days."

The man stepped on the seat and tied his shoelaces, "You will deliver this batch of goods yourself, and I want to see you." He retracted his legs and left, and the words floated into Xu Haiqing's ears along the wind, with a slight smile: "Congratulations! , going to be promoted."

Xu Haiqing stood where he was, until the bus came, and then he lifted his briefcase and stepped up.His ordinary, ambitious face was reflected on the window glass.

He smiled.
