curse

Chapter 54

After completing the formalities, Bai Bi followed Ye Xiao into a long corridor. Ye Xiao's footsteps sounded very dull, which was exactly the opposite of her footsteps. The two voices echoed slowly in the dead corridor. .

Walking into an air-conditioned room, Bai Bi hugged her shoulders involuntarily. Under the cold light, there were rows of iron cabinets all around. She knew that these cabinets contained dead people.Ye Xiao pulled out one of the grids, a woman surrounded by air-conditioning was lying quietly inside, Bai Bi looked at her face, and called softly: "Blue Moon."

Lan Yue won't answer any more.

Ye Xiao said softly: "Look, she fell from the roof of the 6th floor, but her face was preserved so well, it's a miracle. When she fell, her face was facing the sky, and her face was turned towards the sky when she fell. Falling on his back. Usually in the process of falling in the air, the posture of the faller will continue to change, that is to say, when jumping, the head is up, and when it lands, it is very likely that the head is down. However, she always She stayed in that position until she hit the ground, so her front side was pretty much intact."

However, Ye Xiao didn't tell Bai Bi that Lan Yue's back and the back of the head had been horribly broken, and now that Lan Yue's back of the head had been treated, he didn't want to tell Bai Bi about it, so he could bring Bai Bi to have a look. Looking at the blue moon, it is already a big concession.When Ye Xiao saw Lan Yue's body here a few days ago, he felt an indescribable fear, even though he was used to this kind of scene.Her front is so perfect, still retaining her alluring side, but the back is completely broken.Most of the bones in her back were shattered and fractured. Many of the bones were broken. The cut surfaces of the broken bones were very sharp, piercing through the skin on her back, and some even pierced her clothes, and broke again on the concrete floor.At that time, the blood from the back of her head overflowed on the road, dyeing half of her hair red, while the other half of her hair covered her face. When people sent her to the corpse truck, her eyes were still open. open.

Bai Bi, who had only been out of the hospital for three days, quietly looked at Lan Yue lying in the freezer, thinking that at least Lan Yue would never grow old like this.Lanyue's eyes are slightly closed, her seductive eyes can no longer be opened, her face is very clean, there is no bloodstain as Bai Bi imagined, but the blood on her body seems to be drained, it is just Just a lifeless shell.Even though Bai Biming knew this, she still felt that Lan Yue was not dead, but just asleep. She even wanted to reach out to touch him, but was stopped by Ye Xiao.She noticed the remaining smile on Lanyue's face. The corners of Lanyue's mouth were slightly raised, with calmness and composure, which made her whole face show an unusual temperament, like a solidified building. statue.

Bai Bi raised her head and asked Ye Xiao, "Will she be cremated?"

"Yes, but not now."

She stopped asking, and looked at Lanyue again, and suddenly had the feeling of seeing a mummy in the warehouse of the Archaeological Institute.She thought of the woman lying in the glass case in the archaeological institute more than 2000 years ago. The two shadows gradually overlapped until she could no longer tell which one was the blue moon and which one was the ancient mummy.Gradually, she became a little dizzy.

"Bai Bi, what's wrong with you? Let's go." Ye Xiao urged her.

Bai Bi nodded, took one last look, and then, Ye Xiao sent Lan Yue back to the freezer.They returned to the corridor, where the silence was once again broken by their footsteps.

After sending Bai Bi away, Ye Xiao wandered alone in the long corridor, he didn't know why he stayed here, he just listened to his own footsteps.

"Ye Xiao, there is something I want to tell you." A voice came from the other end of the corridor.Ye Xiao turned around, and it turned out to be a forensic doctor here.Ye Xiao nodded, and followed the forensic doctor into an office not far away.

Since Ye Xiao has dealt with several death cases recently and often comes and goes here, he is also very familiar with the forensic doctors here. The forensic doctor asked him to sit down, and then said with a strange expression: "Ye Xiao, I want to talk to you." Let’s talk about the case of the woman you were responsible for falling to her death.”

"Did you mean Lanyue? No, it should be called Nie Xiaoqing."

The forensic doctor in front of him is a middle-aged man. Ye Xiao has heard many stories about this forensic doctor and knows that he has a lot of experience.The forensic doctor said slowly: "I have analyzed her cell slices these days and found that there are abnormal lesions in her cells. It is certain that this abnormal lesion existed before she fell to her death. I have never seen This kind of lesion, so it is impossible to determine whether it is a virus or not."

"Virus?" Ye Xiao felt nervous when he thought of this word.

"I'm not sure yet. Viruses are usually invaded from outside. Now it is impossible to determine whether this lesion formed naturally in her body or was infected externally. If it was formed naturally, my personal opinion is that she has some kind of disease. Genetic lesions, or gene mutations. I am now analyzing the DNA composition in her cells, can you provide information on her parents or other immediate relatives?"

Ye Xiao shook his head and said, "No, she only has adoptive parents. She was adopted from a children's welfare home when she was a child. No one knows who her biological parents are, let alone any blood relatives."

The forensic chief sighed: "It's a pity. Ye Xiao, let me tell you the truth now. The results of the test now surprised me, because I found that the arrangement of her DNA sequence is different from that of ordinary people."

"Different from ordinary people? What does that mean?"

"Of course, except for identical twins, everyone's DNA has subtle differences. And human DNA is quite complicated. Even after the human genome has been deciphered, there are still many unsolved mysteries. The difference in DNA sequence between people is estimated to be 300/[-], that is to say, the sequence of about [-] million nucleotides in each of us is different. However, the difference between her DNA and ours is far greater than this number , has even surpassed the genetic differences between different races of human beings, and entered another unknown realm."

"Unknown realm? You mean..." Ye Xiao thought of something, but he didn't say it.

The forensic doctor nodded and said: "Needless to say, it seems that you have understood what I mean. Also, when I performed an autopsy on her, I noticed her appearance. Well, don't get me wrong, she is indeed very beautiful , but I am not talking about this, I mean, from an anthropological point of view, there seems to be other races in her body. Of course, this problem is not important, because like her mixed with other races The example of this is quite common among Chinese people. There are no pure races in the world. Maybe your and my ancestors have some mixed blood of other races. However, it is more manifested in her, I guess she Probably one-quarter or one-eighth Indo-European blood."

Ye Xiao thought carefully about what the forensic doctor said, and suddenly asked him: "Then, what about the other deceased?"

"I have analyzed their cell slices, and basically everything is normal. There is nothing like the current female deceased. It's just that I regret it now."

"Regret what?"

"I didn't leave slices of their brain cells. I've always been puzzled by the fact that several of them never found out the cause of death, but these days it occurred to me that there was something wrong with their brains. I read a copy yesterday According to foreign information, some viruses can enter the human body through the air, but only invade the human brain, reside in human brain cells, and then control people's thinking and actions, and finally cause death. Unfortunately, they have all been cremated Yes. What special things have they been exposed to?"

In an instant, for unknown reasons, the mummy lying in the warehouse of the Archaeological Research Institute immediately appeared in Ye Xiao's mind.Was that mummy also related to their deaths?He thought again of the videotape with most of it cut off, the scene of Wen Haogu reading an ancient text in the dark tomb passage.No, he didn't want to think about it anymore, the cursed people were already dead, and everything would be calm after that, there was no need to make waves.If someone disturbs that ancient tomb and the people who were supposed to rest in the tomb, then I'm afraid there will be a new round of curses going on, no, let it all stop here.Ye Xiao shook his head to the forensic doctor and said, "God knows what they have been exposed to."

Ye Xiao didn't want to stay here anymore, he was eager to breathe the fresh air outside.He said goodbye to the coroner and hurried through the dead corridor.
