The night before the sun came, the sun was shining.

At night, in an ordinary residential building in Changshan District, Yu Yuner hid behind the door and secretly looked in the direction of the living room.

Professor Zhang was at home, and he came back very early these days.

Because there was no special study room at home, Professor Zhang was reading in the living room.

In the past, the house was very tidy, after all, the two of them could not stay at home for a long time, but since yesterday, the living room has been filled with all kinds of books.

There are books in various languages, and Yu Yuner doesn't even know where he got them from. Now, as soon as Professor Zhang comes home, he pounces on the pile of books, constantly looking for something, with a panic expression, and repeating a sentence in his mouth.

Yu Yuner bravely opened the door and quietly approached, trying to hear more clearly.

Professor Zhang's voice was low and rapid, as if he was talking to himself, or talking to some invisible existence.

"Impossible... Impossible, how could this happen... How could this be possible!"

Yu Yuner was confused, but she could feel the panic and despair emanating from Professor Zhang, which made her feel palpitations.

She approached carefully, trying to see what was written on the page in Professor Zhang's hand, but those words were too strange to her and completely incomprehensible.

At this time, Professor Zhang suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of Yu Yuner.

Yu Yuner was startled and subconsciously wanted to step back, but Professor Zhang had already seen her.

His eyes were full of confused thoughts, but also a little confused.

"Yuner... You... Why are you here?" His voice trembled, with a hint of pleading in his tone.

Yu Yuner looked at Professor Zhang's appearance, and a feeling of uneasiness rose in her heart.

She swallowed and tried to make her voice sound calmer: "I... I'm worried about you, so I came to see you."

Professor Zhang smiled bitterly: "Worried about me? You should stay away from me."

Yu Yuner was a little scared: "Why? What happened?"

Professor Zhang's eyes were full of bloodshot, his hair was messy, and he seemed to have aged a lot overnight.

He raised his trembling hands and scratched his face hard, leaving a few blood-red marks, but he didn't seem to feel any pain.

He began to mumble meaningless words again, which made people get goose bumps all over their bodies.

"Yuner... do you know the truth of the world?"

...

After eating with her roommates, Li Yin left the dormitory under the pretext of throwing away garbage.

When passing by the next dormitory, she happened to see someone coming out to get hot water.

Although she was not familiar with them, she still reached out and said hello: "Hey, classmate, good evening, are you okay?"

The classmate turned around and smiled: "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine now, just tired from military training."

A person came over the stairs, also a classmate next door, and waved in their direction: "I bought the food back, wake them up, let's have dinner."

"Okay, I'll go back after getting water."

The two chatted for a while and then separated.

Li Yin was a little confused and took out her mobile phone to check. It was only six o'clock in the evening. Why did everyone go to bed so early?

This made her feel a little abnormal.

Throwing the garbage into the trash can in the bathroom, then quickly returned to her dormitory and came to Sun Tingting's bed. She did not summon the axe, after all, it was too big and conspicuous, and it was difficult to explain. Instead, she took out a walnut and put it on her.

If she had encountered an incident like a ghost, she would definitely react to the walnut. But to Li Yin's surprise, the walnut did not move at all.

Am I overthinking?

Wang Yue also came over: "Li Yin, what are you doing? What's wrong with Tingting?"

Li Yin smiled and shook her head: "Nothing, Tingting is sleeping so soundly, I'll see if she has a fever."

"I just touched her, she's still sweating, she should be fine. You don't know, she sat in the library until half past ten yesterday, Qingqing and I thought something happened."

Li Yin turned to look at the sleeping girl, feeling a little emotional.

She is the only student in the dormitory who came from the countryside. According to her, the educational resources there are very poor, and most students don't like to study.

It's conceivable how much effort she has put in to get here.

It's not an exaggeration to say that she is the hope of the whole family, right?

Shaking her head, Li Yin chatted with Wang Yue and Lu Qing, then walked out of the dormitory building and walked towards the teaching building.

Go.

She planned to investigate the owner of the office first, and then go to see Senior Sister Su Ji to ask about the orphanage.

The office was easy to find, after all, it was next to Professor Fang, and Professor Fang's office was at the end of the corridor.

She looked up at the sign and saw that it was the freshman counselor's office, a woman. She had seen her several times during the military training, but not much since then.

Is she a woman?

Li Yin was a little confused. Although she couldn't see her face clearly from the perspective of that person, she should be a man from her body shape.

At least she should be a tall person.

She recalled the appearance of the counselor, a thin woman about 1.6 meters tall.

It was a bit strange. Did she use some means to cover her body? Or was there someone else who just used her office?

Li Yin stuck her head into the office and looked. There were two people sitting inside, who seemed to be working.

They were not teachers, but students, and she didn't know them.

In the entire Linhai University, she only knew seven people in her dormitory and the dormitory next door, plus senior sister Su Ji, and even the teachers didn't know a few of them.

Hearing the voice, one of the students looked up and asked in confusion: "Is this student here to see the counselor? The teacher is not here for the time being, you can tell me if you have anything."

Li Yin saw the nameplate hanging on her chest, which said she was the vice president of the student union.

"Is the counselor out?"

"The teacher has been unwell recently and asked for leave. Our student union will temporarily handle some daily affairs on his behalf. Is there anything you need help with?" The vice president of the student union asked with a smile.

Asked for leave? At this time?

Suppressing the doubts in her heart, Li Yin asked calmly: "I am a freshman. I want to consult the counselor about some things. I wonder when she can come back?"

The vice chairman shook his head: "The teacher has been on leave for a long time. We don't know exactly when she will come back. However, you can tell me the problem, I will try my best to answer it for you, or help you convey it to the teacher."

Li Yin narrowed her eyes, shook her head and smiled: "It's nothing big, just some personal questions. I think I'd better wait for the teacher to come back and ask in person. Thank you, then I'll leave first."

After that, she turned and left the office.

The teacher took leave, at this point in time, one can't help but wonder if it was for some reason.

Last night, I killed the man named Zhang, and the underground laboratory immediately received intelligence and began to organize evacuation and destroy evidence. Did we know about the death of the other person?

So this counselor ran away?

It's not certain yet.

Let Officer Liu check her whereabouts and address? Officer Liu has set out to catch Han Xiuli now, right?

At this time, the door on the side was opened, and a familiar figure walked out. She was also stunned when she saw Li Yin in the corridor: "Junior sister Li Yin, you are back? Have you dealt with the matter? Do you need your help?"

The person who came was Su Ji. Her voice was still as gentle as ever, making people feel an inexplicable sense of security.

Li Yin hurriedly stepped forward, took the heavy documents from her hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you, senior sister, I am fine now. But senior sister, are you still busy so late?"

Su Ji smiled lightly and shook her head: "Nothing, just some trivial matters. What about you? Is there anything? You look like you have something on your mind."

Li Yin didn't know how the senior sister saw it.

Except in front of Ning Zhu, she thought that her emotions had always been hidden very well, and even Officer Liu had never noticed anything unusual.

Could it be a woman's sixth sense?

Why didn't I awaken this superpower?

"Where are you going, senior? I'll help you get your stuff."

"To the lab, I'll get you some new books to study. You have to make up for the missed two days of classes."

The lab is in another building. The two chatted about trivial matters and soon came to the lab of the senior.

There is basically no change here since she left, except that there are some more paper materials on the table, and the strange fish in the pool has grown a little.

"Are they still alive?"

Li Yin was surprised. She always thought that these fish would not last long in the pool and would all die. Unexpectedly, they could last for a week.

"It's not easy to raise them..." Senior Su Ji sighed: "In order for them to live normally, I almost live in the lab, and I have asked many seniors in related majors for advice, but their condition is still worse than when I first came."

"Is that so?"

Li Yin looked at the strange fish in the pool and didn't see anything wrong with their condition.

Maybe it's because I don't have a talent for breeding. From childhood to adulthood, whether it's insects, birds, or fish, I haven't exceeded

She was sent to the west in one month, so her parents gave her the title of pet killer.

"By the way, senior sister, do you still remember your experience in the orphanage?"

Su Ji, who was sorting out the materials, paused and the expression on her face changed.

"Li... Li Yin, why did you suddenly ask about this?"

Li Yin naturally heard the change in the senior sister's tone, slowly turned her head, took out a photo from her arms and put it on the table, pointed to the short-haired girl in it and asked: "Senior sister, this person, is it you?"

Seeing herself in the photo, Su Ji's body trembled violently, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it.

She took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calmer: "How did you get this photo?"

"Hehe, senior sister used to look pretty when she had short hair. Very handsome, why don't you have short hair now?"

Su Ji tapped her toes on the floor awkwardly: "Because... because long hair suits my temperament better, short hair makes me look too heroic, it doesn't suit me."

"Obviously very handsome, Yoona is fascinated by senior sister."

"Wuwuwu, that's all black history! Don't talk about it anymore!"

"Senior sister, can you tell me about the orphanage?"

"Of course you can, I didn't expect you to be interested in this."

Su Ji sat down and picked up the photo on the table, with some nostalgia in her eyes.

The days in the orphanage seemed very happy to her, and there was nothing worth hiding or making her feel uncomfortable.

"I went to the orphanage late because the previous orphanage closed down and I was forced to move here. I remember that the director at that time was an auntie with a bad temper. She was very strict with us and often punished us by standing and scolding us for doing something wrong. But she was actually a very kind person. She often sorted out documents late at night so that we could have a better life."

Li Yin raised her eyebrows and did not comment on this sentence. In her opinion, the director of the orphanage was not trying to improve the lives of the children, but to select qualified children through some method.

"Yun'er was the youngest child in the orphanage at that time, and she also suffered from autism and was unwilling to communicate with others. Because of her special nature, she was often bullied by other children. I couldn't stand it, so I stood up to protect her. Slowly, our relationship became better and better. Sometimes I would climb over the wall and bring her some delicious food. Every time she would look at me with admiration."

Then why are your personalities reversed now? That girl has become lawless, and you have become a gentle big sister?

"What happened later?"

Su Ji guessed what Li Yin was asking about, and shook her head a little embarrassedly: "No, I just grew up and became a girl, so I can't do the things I did when I was a child."

Do girls change a lot when they grow up? It's incredible.

"Okay, let's not talk about this! Li Yin, do you know? Our college has applied for a very powerful project!"

As she said that, she took out her mobile phone, opened the album, and placed a photo in front of Li Yin.

"What is this? A slate?"

Li Yin looked at the thing in the photo and was a little confused.

The photo showed something like a slate or a fossil, with strange patterns carved on it, which looked like some kind of text.

"Is this what an archaeology major should do? Aren't we doing biological research? How did we apply for such a project?"

Su Ji knew she would say this, and smiled mysteriously: "At first I thought it was a fragment of a cultural relic, but it is said that after being tested by professional instruments, it was found that it was actually the skin tissue of some unknown creature, and it is even active. It's incredible, isn't it?"

"Indeed incredible."

Li Yin looked at the 'stone slab' that was several centimeters thick, and doubts could not help but arise in her heart.

Is this really the skin tissue of some creature? If so, how huge would this creature be?

"Can we participate in this level of research?"

"Haha, how is it possible? Let's just observe the strange fish honestly. If we can understand this new creature, it will be a great contribution to the biological community." Senior sister Su Ji smiled and shook her head, then picked up a book and handed it to Li Yin, "By the way, this is the course material you missed in the past two days and the exercise book I prepared for you. Go back and take a good look. If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me."

"Well... Thank you, senior sister..."
