Yanjing City belongs to the family compound of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Since the nuclear cloud hanging over the Altai Mountains has dissipated, the atmosphere here has eased a lot.
The above has already said hello, if the six old gentlemen who live here want to continue to study the King of Yama, they should continue to study, anyway, the data channel at the scene is still open.
If you don't want to study, you can leave at any time and continue your previous topic or project.
As a result, no one left.
Not only did no one leave, these six old men and old ladies with considerable energy in the domestic academic circles also began to gather their assistant teams one after another.
People and equipment are transported to the compound one by one.
Soon, the two-entry courtyard began to be overwhelmed by people.
In this area of Yanjing City, every inch of land is expensive. The price of buying a three-bedroom apartment in other cities may not be able to buy a floor tile here.
All the current buildings of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, one radish and one hole, have long been filled by various projects of gods from all walks of life.
This family compound was temporarily allocated, and it was not originally intended for long-term scientific research purposes.
As a result, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and things had come to this, so they could only make do with it.
Fortunately, there were two vacant courtyards next door, so they were simply merged together to form a "special biological temporary research team office base".
Of course, this brand also exists on the internal transfer order of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and it cannot be directly posted, otherwise it will easily cause panic among the common people.
Two people, Cao Yusheng and Miao Guangqi, were also appointed as consultants of this office base at the same time by the top. One is an intelligence consultant and the other is a scientific consultant.
There is no restriction on personal freedom, and you can go wherever you like, as long as your mobile phone remains unblocked.
When he was invited here before, Cao Yusheng was the boss who didn't want to, thinking that his status and status were just a bonus, and felt that he was not taken seriously and was insulted in terms of personality.
As a result, now that they let him go, Cao Yusheng lingered instead.
Because here, Cao Yusheng could know about Lin Shuo's information in the first place. This kind of convenience is not available in other places.
That night, Cao Yusheng and Miao Guangqi had a hot pot in the back room of the courtyard. While cooking mutton, they stared at the monitor on the desk next to them.
In the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, eating slices of mutton and pairing it with a bottle of old rice wine, it doesn't cost much, but you can get the enjoyment of an emperor.
"Old Cao, look at their positions." Miao Guangqi put down his chopsticks, looked at the monitor beside him and said, "If you continue walking like this, you will reach their land."
Cao Yusheng nodded: "That's right, this guy is not easy to deal with. But don't worry, Lin Shuo is safe and won't provoke him."
"I don't care about Lin Shuo's love to death. I'm worried about my daughter." Miao Guangqi said.
"You got it." Cao Yusheng rolled his eyes at Miao Guangqi, "Is it because you ordered your daughter to find Lin Shuo to carry out two deals
This lonely man and a widowed woman, just go through life and death together like this, what will happen in the end, your second brother Miao is also a person who has experienced it, so I don’t know what to do
The Lin family is dead now, and the next generation is me.
His parents are my righteous brothers and sisters. Lin Shuo can call me uncle or uncle.
Your second brother Miao wants to recruit a son-in-law, so I have to be the witness.
And if these two become married, it will be a marriage between the six families of Liemen. According to the rules, the attitude of you, a branch of the Miao family, is not important. As one of the six leaders, I must nod.
So, if your second brother Miao doesn't take good care of me, I won't nod to this marriage.
You can't recruit Lin Shuo as a son-in-law. "
"Stop talking to yourself." Miao Guangqi glared at Cao Yusheng, "It's a lot of age, and your mind is still full of men and women, is it embarrassing?"
"Hey, the truth is never pleasant in this world." Cao Yusheng shook his head, and then asked, "By the way, wouldn't you, the International Society for Biological Research, classify these beasts? The one at the northern foot of the Altai Mountain , how did they decide?"
"Those clubs know nothing." Miao Guangqi said with disdain, "So far, I have told them 90% of all the information about strange creatures in the Research Society, and the database is basically created by me. Yes. The ones that were rated were all unsafe in recent decades. The one at the northern foot of the Altai Mountains is honest and responsible, and has a lot to do with us humans. I was full and supported it to record it. into the database?"
Speaking of this, Miao Guangqi paused for a moment, and then changed the topic: "But with its ability, if it really does evil, its rating can't be lowered. A conservative estimate, two S's, eighth level."
"So it's on the same level as King Yama?" Cao Yusheng asked.
"Shan Yan Wang, the rating is two S, but as I said before, this thing can actually reach three S, the ninth level." Miao Guangqi said, "However, it is not very stable, its strength is related to the host, and the upper limit is very high , the lower limit is also very low, so when I rated it before, I gave it two S."
"Then what if..." Cao Yusheng stood up and pointed to the northern part of the Altai Mountains on the screen, "The host is this thing?"
"That depends on how long the parasite has been." Miao Guangqi analyzed, "If it's just a parasite, then it's okay, I don't know if Lin Shuo can deal with it, but at least I can deal with it.
But if after a long time, the gene of this thing is further strengthened by the King of Yama, it will be really difficult to handle.
At that time, it's not just Lin Shuo, you and I have to do it, the top players of the six major families must all be together, and use the advantages of the team's combat to the limit in order to fight against it. "
"It's so hard to die, the King of Hades chose this area." Cao Yusheng said, "Second Brother Miao, the situation is not very good."
Miao Guangqi said lightly, "I'll tell you the truth, if the King of Hell appears in other places, I might not dare to let my daughter go with Lin Shuo.
But if it is in the Altai Mountains, things will be easier to handle.
According to my research, the parasitic trend of Yama Yama is to grow larger and larger animals, and this trend is irreversible.
So this thing will definitely become the host of Yama Yama in the end.
As long as Lin Shuo is clear enough, he should be able to realize this soon.
The sooner he thinks about this, the more he can get started with that thing at the most suitable time.
Moving from place to place, I thought I could do this.
Since I can do it, Lin Shuo must do it too.
Otherwise, he is not worthy of the status of the leader of the hunting gate, let alone my daughter. "
"Finally told the truth." Cao Yusheng couldn't laugh or cry, and said, "I said, you old guy, to test your future son-in-law, you have spent such a long battle, and you look like you want to kill him, you **** Are you sick?"
Miao Guangqi asked back, "Isn't this always the way I do things? This is the first day you know me?"
"Okay, you're awesome." Cao Yusheng shook his head, "But it's such a big deal, how should it end now?"
"It should end like this." Miao Guangqi said, "For tens of thousands of years, we, the hunters, have been handling the matter of beasts and alien species. Now our hunters are almost dead, and others don't learn how to deal with it. , what should I do in the future
Look, it's just such a mountain king, what did those sticks do with the rest of the things I played with fifteen years ago
I was so scared that I almost used nuclear weapons, so I didn't bother to talk about it. I still have the face to use supercomputers
There is no technical content at all about violently cracking gene sequences.
This is a fucking thing that a large group of top figures in biology all over the world worked together.
Can the technical reserve be seen? Is there an action plan
What a shame!
According to me, this kind of battle should let these people experience more.
What are you afraid of spending money on? So what if you lose your nerve
If they don't make a fool of themselves, they will always be a bunch of clubs! "
"Okay, I guess you're a bit unreasonable." Cao Yusheng smiled, returned to his seat, and put a piece of mutton into his mouth.
While chewing, Lao Cao had let go of most of his worries these days.
On Lin Shuo's side, the situation is not bad, and it won't look like it's going to hang up at any time like before.
However, although the situation has improved, there are still some hidden worries.
Cao Yusheng put down his chopsticks, and said in a deep voice, "Second Brother Miao, I'm asking you for someone."
"Who is it?" Miao Guangqi asked.
"Dylan."
When Miao Guangqi heard the name, he was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What do you want to know about her?"
"That's right." Cao Yusheng said, "In Zhang Guohua's notes, there was a person mentioned. This is a young scholar who met Zhang Guohua by chance at that time.
Originally, I had seen this matter before, but I just remembered the last name of this scholar. This surname is rare, and I have a deep impression on it.
But this time, news came from the front that Lin Shuo teamed up with a woman named Di Lan.
And that young scholar's surname is 'Di', Dizi's Di, which is a homonym to Di Lan's surname.
I think there is a possibility that the young scholar and Zhang Guohua introduced each other verbally. Zhang Guohua didn't know how to write his surname, so he remembered it as "di".
So it is possible that this young scholar who once tracked down the King of Hades with Zhang Guohua has the same surname as the woman who is currently teaming up with Lin Shuo, and it is a very rare surname. "
Miao Guangqi nodded after listening: "It is indeed possible."
"Then, is this a coincidence?" Cao Yusheng asked.
"That young scholar, did Zhang Guohua write down his full name?"
"No, only the last name."
Miao Guangqi frowned and said, "Dylan is a very young woman, about twenty-five or sixteen years old. She usually works at Oxford University in England. She is a well-known young biologist in the industry. Her father Di Lan Hongzhe, like me, is one of the nine elders of the research association."
"Di Hongzhe." Cao Yusheng read the name softly, and then asked, "Where was this Di Hongzhe before and after Zhang Guohua was killed fifteen years ago?"
"I'm going to inquire about this." Miao Guangqi took out the mobile phone in his pocket while talking.
One hundred and fortieth sixth strange skill
Geneva in Switzerland and Yanjing in China are located at the east and west ends of the Eurasian continent, and there is a six-hour time difference.
He Zihong just woke up from his nap when he received the call from Miao Guangqi.
Recently, he is seriously considering a proposal from the elders' house.
That is to let him, one of the nine elders, retire from the field of biological research and transfer to the management of the research society as a vice president of the research society.
The International Association for Biological Research is a typical association for the elderly, and most of its members are over sixty years old.
Last year, a ninety-six-year-old vice president just passed away, and no one sat in the vacated position.
In terms of qualifications and reputation in the industry, He Zihong has already reached this level, but he originally wanted to work hard in the research position for a few more years and strive for a few achievements.
As a result, the trip to the Xing'an Mountains made He Zihong realize the reality.
Time is not forgiving. With a young man like Yang Tuo expanding his territory in the field of biology, he, an old man, can indeed change his way of life.
The International Society for Biological Research is an international public welfare organization. The predecessor of this organization is well-known in European history. Its full name is "Jerusalem, Rhodes and Malta Saint John Sovereign Military Hospital Knights", referred to as "Malta Knights" or "Hospital Knights".
The "Hospital Knights", together with the "Franconian Knights" and "Teutonic Knights", are known as the three major European knights. They were very active during the Crusades and had their own territory and military sovereignty.
However, the other two knight orders were a little too active, and finally became victims of the changing political situation in Europe.
The "Hospital Knights" remained and slowly evolved into a public welfare international organization. At the same time, as a sovereign entity, it was also recognized by international law.
After several reforms, the religious background of this organization gradually weakened, replaced by scientific spirit and charitable ideas, gradually becoming the highest institution in the field of international biology.
Fifty years ago, the International Society for Biological Research was formally established. The highest decision-making levels were the three presidents, one master, two vice presidents, and six other elders.
These nine people are regarded as members of the Council of Elders, also known as the Nine Elders.
Among these nine people, He Zihong was originally ranked sixth, but now, he has risen three rankings in a row and is on the verge of becoming the vice president.
Of course, He Zihong also knew in his heart that this kind of management position in an international organization was called an official if it sounded good, but it was a grandson who begged his grandpa to sue his grandma everywhere.
The title sounds good, but the job is actually very difficult.
The elders who ranked ahead of him were not lacking in qualifications or reputation, but that they had no ambitions.
For example, Miao Guangqi, who is in the United States and has been reluctant to show up easily.
This person is only in his fifties, but he ranks third in the elders' house, second only to the two presidents.
This person single-handedly created the database of strange creatures, and developed the global biological emergency into the main business of the organization today.
If he wanted to be the vice president, it would be He Zihong's turn.
But now, when He Zihong woke up from the bed, he found that the number that was flashing on his phone belonged to this mysterious figure, Miao Guangqi.
He Zihong felt a little strange, this person actually had no friendship with him. And recently, He Zihong is also suspicious of this person.
It's just that Miao Guangqi is different from Di Hongzhe in that his elder ranking is higher than He Zihong's. He Zihong has no authority to obtain other people's personnel information, so the investigation of him can only be temporarily shelved.
However, if He Zihong is promoted to the vice president, he will have authority in this area, which is one of the reasons why He Zihong considers being the vice president.
Now that the boss is coming to the door, He Zihong quickly shook his head to make himself more awake, pressed the answer button, and said in English: "Hello, Professor Miao."
"Mr. He, hello." Miao Guangqi's voice came from the other end of the phone, speaking standard Mandarin.
He Zihong went abroad to study when he was young, and he has lived in a foreign land for decades. When he heard the mother tongue of his motherland, he felt very cordial.
He immediately switched to Mandarin and asked, "Professor Miao, what can you do?"
"I heard that Mr. He is about to become the vice president of our association. Congratulations." Miao Guangqi said.
"The final decision hasn't been made yet, and it's not a happy event. If Professor Miao wants to be the vice president, I can only wish for it." He Zihong said with a smile.
"Mr. He, please forgive me. Although we don't have much contact, Mr. He should know that I am not good at dealing with people, and it is difficult for me to be qualified for a management position.
I think you, Mr. He, are the most suitable candidate.
At present, among the nine elders, only you, me and Di Hongzhe are Chinese, and the rest are all blond-haired and blue-eyed foreign devils.
How old is at the highest decision-making level, at least I personally, will feel more at ease than before. "
After Miao Guangqi finished speaking, he immediately got to the point: "By the way, Mr. He, I want to browse the personnel file of Professor Di Hongzhedi. Is it convenient?"
"Professor Miao, you are the third elder, so it is convenient." He Zihong said this, but his heart skipped a beat.
Because Di Hongzhe's personnel file happened to be in He Zihong's hands right now.
Quickly calculating various possibilities in his mind, He Zihong continued: "However, Professor Miao must also know that the personnel files of the Nine Great Elders are top-secret documents of the Research Association, and there are only paper versions, no electronic versions. You should not be in the Switzerland?"
"I'm in China." Miao Guangqi said.
"Oh, that's inconvenient to browse." He Zihong said, "How about this, Professor Miao, if you want to know something about Professor Di Hongzhe, I'll look it up for you and then pass it on to you."
"This could not be better." Miao Guangqi said, "I want to know where Di Hongzhe was and what he was doing during the ten years from 1980 to 1990."
"Okay. But I want to remind Professor Miao that such records in the personnel file should not be too detailed."
"It doesn't need to be very detailed, I just need to know the general idea."
"Then please wait a moment, I will call you when I find out."
"Thank you, He Lao."
"You are welcome."
After hanging up the phone, He Zihong didn't get up and went to the office to look through the files, but stood up, walked to the French window of the bedroom, and lit a cigar.
What Miao Guangqi wanted to know, He Zihong didn't even need to check.
Because in the past few days, Di Hongzhe's personnel files were almost torn up by He Zihong, and he had already been familiar with them by heart.
Moreover, the decade from 1980 to 1990 mentioned by Miao Guangqi was originally a time period when Di Hongzhe had doubts on his resume, so He Zihong remembered it very clearly.
In 1980, Di Hongzhe was 27 years old at the time, graduated with a master's degree, and then studied for a doctorate in biology in a certain university in China.
It took him a long time to study for this doctorate, a full ten years. That is to say, Di Hongzhe has been studying for a Ph.D. in the past ten years.
A doctoral degree is indeed difficult, but for students who can get to that point, it will not take ten years to chew on this hard bone.
Unless there is one situation, that is, the doctoral supervisor stays by his side as an assistant to do a certain research project together, part-time work and part-study, that is possible.
It's a pity that Di Hongzhe's doctoral supervisor at the time was an old gentleman in China, and he has passed away now.
He Zihong went abroad when he was a teenager, and he didn't have many contacts in the domestic academic circle, so he couldn't verify this point.
It is actually very important to understand what Di Hongzhe has been researching in the past ten years.
As a person who has experienced it, He Zihong deeply understands that these ten years are the key ten years for a young scholar to determine the research direction of his life.
Why is Di Hongzhe's later research direction so unpopular
His experience in the past ten years should give the answer.
He Zihong leaned against the window, and after smoking half a cigar, he finally had an idea:
Since Miao Guangqi is currently in China, it would be a good choice to use him to investigate this matter.
After making up his mind, He Zihong waited for another five minutes and prepared his words before taking out the phone from his pocket and calling back.
…
That night, Lin Shuo decided to keep watch by himself.
The reason was simple, because he knew that Wei Xingshan would go to Di Lan's tent in the early hours of the morning.
This kind of thing, yellow mud falling into the crotch, is either shit or shit, it's better not to let Zhang Jin see it.
Although this kid chose to turn a blind eye when Anne got into his tent last time, but he usually doesn't speak, who knows what's going on in his mind.
If Wei Xingshan just went in, he went over and carried the person out, that would be bad.
Everyone's dinner, because Dylan's autopsy took too long, was actually eaten very late, at one o'clock in the morning.
Everyone ate well, it was Wei Xingshan who helped warm up the military rations.
Now that Dylan has just fallen asleep, it will take some time for the medicine to take full effect.
Wei Xingshan was sitting next to Lin Shuo at this moment, looking down at his watch from time to time.
At two o'clock in the morning, Wei Xingshan gave Lin Shuo a wink, and took out a needle from his trouser pocket.
"Together?" Wei Xingshan asked softly.
"You still need me to embolden you for such a trivial matter?" Lin Shuo rolled his eyes at him.
"That's not necessary." Wei Xingshan stood up, and lightly touched Dylan's tent.
Although Wei Xingshan looked calm, he was actually a little nervous.
He, Wei Xingshan, was indomitable all his life, even if he used to play with girls, it was either because of your love or my willingness, or the money and goods, it was clear.
He had never done this kind of nonsense of drugging people first and then touching other girls' tents in the middle of the night.
And Dilan is not an ordinary girl.
Wei Xingshan has been staring at her all the way, knowing that this woman has a good mind, a strong temper, and a body that is far stronger than ordinary girls.
This snowfield and forest trek in the Altai Mountains, not to mention that ordinary girls can't do it, even if it is Liu Qing, it may not be as easy as her.
Knowing that this girl is not simple, Wei Xingshan's hands were quite dark when he administered the medicine tonight.
This powerful painkiller brought by Yang Tuo from the rear is actually a tranquilizer. With the amount Wei Xingshan gave tonight, let alone a person, a cow can be put down.
Suppressing his breath, Wei Xingshan slowly walked to Di Lan's tent.
He didn't rush in, coughed softly, and asked, "Miss Di, are you asleep?"
After waiting for a while, there was no movement inside.
Wei Xingshan collected himself, stretched out his hand, and unzipped the zipper of the tent.
With the light of the bonfire behind him, he looked into the tent and found that Dylan was lying on his side with his back to him.
It seemed that he had indeed fallen asleep.
When the woman was sleeping, she was only wearing a women's sports vest. There were a lot of exposed parts on her back, and there were needles everywhere.
Knowing that Lin Shuo was staring at him, Wei Xingshan got into the tent without much hesitation.
With a "offended" in his heart, he lifted the needle.
As a result, just as the needle was about to go in, there was a "snap", and someone grabbed Wei Xingshan's wrist.
When Wei Xingshan pulled subconsciously, he felt that his wrist was clamped by a vise. Not only could he not move at all, but the force was so brutal that he almost cried out in pain.
Taking a closer look, Wei Xingshan was horrified to find that Di Lan was holding his wrist with his backhand, and slowly turned around.
The woman looked at Wei Xingshan and said softly: "It seems that I can't hide it anymore."
