The inside of the morgue was still empty; vision, hearing, smell and taste were still absent.
The people outside had not left yet, and Zhong Cheng said he would play the role of the corpse conscientiously.
The tiny vibrations gradually faded away, ending with a dull thump as the heavy door closed. Then came the mechanical clicks of the lock, which Zhong Cheng said he "felt" more clearly than before. His senses were still becoming more sensitive. If the touch before was a screen covered with dirty fingerprints, now that someone has cleared away all the dirt, what he felt was brand new.
A strange yet familiar feeling.
Fortunately, he escaped having his intestines dislodged. Excitement and fear were intertwined, and Zhong Cheng's muscles trembled slightly.
He was finally able to think calmly.
The liquid on the surface of the body is slightly sticky and feels very familiar, like the high-end fresh-keeping liquid he is used to using. It can maintain cell activity to a certain extent and delay the decay of organisms. However, this liquid has a time limit, and to ensure the best fresh-keeping effect, it needs to be maintained every 24 hours.
The visitor was here to "preserve" him. "No need to dissect for the time being" probably meant that his body was still fresh and there was no need to separate the internal organs and preserve them separately.
It seems that this organization cherishes his body very much.
Sinking will.
It was a warm, soft group of wings that exuded the scent of a sharp blade.
Zhong Cheng said that he endured the fear like being bitten by ants and continued to turn over, feeling and getting used to this new state.
Second, the man just said that his nerves were still active. Zhong Cheng said that he could obtain some sensory functions through his incomplete body after his own verification.
There was only one thing he needed to make sure of before escaping.
Suddenly, the fear of "not being able to escape" was magnified again. Zhong Cheng said his whole body was shaken, and his limbs and senses were like a car with broken brakes, becoming increasingly difficult to control.
First, fear has certain benefits for him.
Whether the corpse was a scientist during his lifetime has no effect on this point - whether it is a practitioner or a scientific researcher, once a person dies, the corpse left behind is just a "dead thing."
He tried to concentrate again, trying to strengthen his other senses. In the cold and empty morgue, the various feelings in his memory seemed distant and vague. In the chaotic memory, only one thing was still vivid -
Then "recovery" becomes simple.
This time, Fu Xingchuan sat on the side where he was being questioned. Professor Li sat behind the one-way glass, his face looking frighteningly pale.
Zhong Cheng said he was not sure if he was dead or not, and he did not know if he would slowly rot if he went out in this state. After all, even if it was a zombie, he had to make sure the head was intact. His situation was unprecedented, and he had to be careful.
He had a clear feeling that the emotion called "fear" was slowly marinating him, bringing about all kinds of unknown changes. What he would become and how this would end, Zhong Cheng said that for the first time he had no idea.
Now there was a big knife hanging over his head - Zhong Cheng said he couldn't tell when Wei Huaqian was going to use him for sacrifice. He had to get away as soon as possible before the worst happened.
Even without a brain, maybe you can still rob!
And until the time comes... Patience, you must be patient.
"You're crazy."
Haigu City Security Park, Information Room.
If you don't have clothes, you can rob. If you don't have weapons, you can rob.
The door of this small room was locked tightly, and all the equipment was turned off. Thanks to the layers of magic defenses around it, it became an absolute isolated island, and it could be said to be one of the most "confidential" places in Zhian.
However, there were indeed two facts that he was able to make clear at the time.
Zhong Cheng said that he immediately concluded that Wei Huaqian was his blood relative. For practitioners, the bodies of blood relatives were perfect sacrificial materials.
But the Shen Man Society did not have the ability to invade Fu's house and commit murder on the spot. The attacker was most likely a third party, and his body was simply handed over to the Shen Man Society by this third party.
Li Nian said.
"You just threw Xiang Jiang, this big trouble, to me, and you think it's not chaotic enough now? You want to let Yin Ren make trouble? ... Or, once it is confirmed that it is the great master Zhong Yi, you and your Fu family are going to worship him as an ancestor?"
He clenched his hands tightly in front of the inquiry desk, and there was a hint of darkness under his eyes.
"Because the mortal he loved died, he wanted to use Shi'an as a tool to seek revenge, and he didn't want to hear a single word of no - this is the great evil creature you made a spiritual bond with, Fu Xingchuan. I've told you so many times, you can't bet on 'human nature'."
No matter how good a person is, he is not a living Buddha. There will always be times when he gets too excited and loses his mind. But for Yin Ren, none of them can afford the consequences of him losing control.
Fu Xingchuan took a sip of his latte, listened to soothing music, and played with the tips of the leaves of the potted plants.
"Old Li, take a breath," he soothed, "Being too excited is not good for your health."
"Fu Xingchuan—" Professor Li gritted his teeth.
"I know what you are thinking. You think the most urgent thing is to find out what kind of evil creature Yin Ren is and understand his weaknesses so that Shi An will not be manipulated by others."
"Any questions?"
"Yes, I'm not the head of the emergency department anymore, and I don't want to think about these things - hey, hey, hey, don't smash the window, I'm kidding!"
Fu Xingchuan's hair almost exploded when he saw the one-way glass shaken.
"Okay, let me be serious. His plan is good for Zhi'an, and stopping him will only get you half the result with twice the effort!"
Fu Xingchuan exhaled and looked at his own reflection in the one-way glass. In the dim light, he seemed to be back in that collective ward.
At that time, Yin Ren stood in the middle of the ward, letting the evil spirit entangle him. Yin Ren had strangely outstanding facial features, but he was usually carefree and always had a gentle smile on his face. Once you get used to it, it's easy for people to overlook the sharpness in his eyes.
When this man takes off that gentle outer layer, no one would think that he is an "ordinary person".
This time, even Lu Xiaohe sensed something was wrong. The evil spirit was so dense that it was like substance. Except for Zhong Chengshuo who was completely immune, almost all living things could sense Yin Ren's strength - even the mosquitoes that were flying slowly came to a sudden stop and rushed out of the ward.
"This is a missing persons case. Squadron 9 is always good at tracking down missing persons, isn't it?"
Whether out of shock or fear, Lu Xiaohe did not move, and Ge Tingting, a former "missing person", was completely stunned. Only "missing person number two" Huang Jin forced himself to speak out of his fleeting desire to survive.
"What do you mean?" Huang Jin's voice was extremely dry. "You want us to investigate that case that Zhong Cheng mentioned? You... well, you think too highly of us."
Faced with such a strange attack, Zhian would definitely send strong personnel to investigate. No matter how you look at it, the Class C investigation team would not be involved. Even Ge Tingting, who had just joined, knew all these things.
To put it another way, this unknown enemy was too strong for the Class C investigation team. Huang Jin shuddered noticeably, perhaps because he remembered the scene where Zhong Cheng was easily shot.
"I just want this case. It doesn't matter if you put your name on it." Yin Ren responded lightly.
Fu Xingchuan could naturally hear the subtitles. With a formal mission, Yin Ren could legitimately call on security resources.
"The point is, I know all of you inside out - Lu Xiaohe, as the most senior, has only been at Shi'an for two years. You have clean backgrounds and are not very loyal to Shi'an, so this is the best."
Yin Ren's words were shockingly straightforward.
Huang Jin immediately looked at Fu Xingchuan who was present. Fu Xingchuan saw deep confusion and fear in the eyes of this young man - what was going on? Was this something that could be said directly
Comrade Fu Xingchuan put two fingers into his ears and observed the style of the chandelier in the ward with full concentration.
“… It would be difficult to investigate if you were alone.”
After a moment of silence, Lu Xiaohe spoke in a hoarse voice.
"I can assist with the investigation of the rear command."
Huang Jin: "Lu Xiaohe?!"
"You didn't apply to change teams immediately, so you must have felt something. Zhi'an can't protect us from the attacker. This is not a problem that can be solved by not participating in the whole process or changing teams."
Huang Jin sighed, turned his eyes away in a wolfish manner, and did not answer.
"Jong Cheng said he was a newcomer like us, but he was killed like that, and we don't even know why. What if that guy just wanted to launch a terrorist attack? Who can guarantee that we won't be the next one? Rather than waiting to die passively, I'd rather explore before dying."
Lu Xiaohe clutched the quilt in the ward, her hair was disheveled and she looked a little haggard.
"Yin Ren seems to be quite powerful... Evil creature? Human? This is a good opportunity, maybe we can make a big discovery."
“I want to join, too.”
Ge Tingting typed word by word.
"Someone I knew was killed and I'm sad."
Huang Jin's expression was distorted for a long while. After about three or five minutes, he slapped his face and sighed: "Okay, anyway..."
He glanced at it and it looked like Yin Ren.
"Anyway, if this road is blocked, there's no point in me changing groups." As he said this, he glanced in the direction of the security headquarters, as if he was looking at someone from afar.
In response to the support from his colleagues, Yin Ren just nodded lightly.
Fu Xingchuan retracted his gaze from the chandelier and looked at Yin Ren. Based on his understanding of Yin Ren, Yin Ren would be somewhat moved at this moment. However...
"I see."
Yin Ren did not show any softness, he just stood there. Wrapped tightly in the evil spirit, he was like a statue that was too beautiful.
"If I can find him, I will pay you."
Huang Jin smiled bitterly: "It has come to this, and you are still talking about whether to be rewarded or not—"
"Each of you can make a wish. Anything is fine, as long as it's not to bring the dead back to life."
Yin Ren said softly.
The evil spirit around him suddenly tightened, and Fu Xingchuan's heart sank. Yin Ren's aura had changed subtly - this evil creature was just a beast with its flesh pads exposed before. At this moment, the man completely exposed his bloody claws and fangs.
At that moment, on a certain street.
Qiu Fang was walking in the most chaotic area of Haigu City, holding a cigarette in his mouth. He was humming a song and looking at the people passing by in a good mood. However, at that moment, for some reason, he shuddered.
"This aura is... strange."
He put out his cigarette and looked in the direction of Haigu City People's Hospital.
"Is anyone there?"
