"Advisor Xia, here are some materials related to this mission. You can take a look at them first and see if you have any ideas..."
About a quarter of an hour later, the door of the reception room was opened again. Zhang Qun knocked on the door and walked in holding a small pile of document bags.
"Uncle Luo wants me to lead you to wipe out this beastman who can transform into a fanged rat face?"
Xia Xu nodded and looked through the various documents and records that Zhang Qun brought over for a while, then he looked up at Zhang Qun who was standing upright and quietly beside him.
"Yes."
Zhang Qun nodded, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Advisor Xia, you don't seem surprised at all?"
These documents record in detail the entire incident involving the Rat-Faced Man, as well as the several murders he committed.
This kind of monstrous incident, which can be called supernatural, is definitely a shocking discovery that can shatter the worldview of ordinary people. The detailed accounts of the murders and even the cruel and bloody photos of the scenes are unbearable for ordinary people.
However, Consultant Xia did not show any reaction and was eerily normal.
At times like this, the word "normal" probably needs to be put in quotation marks. After all, this kind of "normal" is the biggest abnormality.
He acted too calmly, as if he had just learned about a trivial matter.
This made Zhang Qun doubt his previous judgment.
Could it be that Team Leader Luo invited Consultant Xia here not just for personal gain or to make up the numbers
"It's just a beastman, what's so surprising about that? If I make a fuss now, won't you start to grumble behind my back again?"
Xia Xu chuckled and gave him a playful look.
"Uh, cough."
Zhang Qun didn't know at this moment that Xia Xu had heard what he and the others had just said. He coughed awkwardly and quickly apologized and explained:
"I'm sorry, Advisor Xia, the main reason is that you look too young, so my teammates are a little worried.
They are only concerned about the mission and the safety of the people. They definitely don't mean to offend you intentionally. After all, the cases handled by our department are a bit special..."
"I understand. It's human nature. There's a saying in Xia Country that goes 'a man without hair on his lips cannot do things well.'"
Xia Xu sneered, shook his head and interrupted him, saying, "It doesn't matter whether you doubt it or not, but I hope that you will follow Uncle Luo's orders before I show enough incompetence, and don't do things like pretending to obey but actually disobeying. Of course, I will also try my best to prove myself with my performance."
Instead of both parties being suspicious of each other, it would be better to talk about some things in advance. If they can come to an agreement, there will naturally be no problem. If there is really no way, then you can't blame him.
Anyway, he came here just to help out of Uncle Luo's face. He didn't expect to make any money. Even if the official department was generous, they would only give him a few hundred thousand at most. To be honest, this amount of money was not that valuable for him with 70 million in his hands.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xia. It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. Since Team Leader Luo has given the order, we will definitely cooperate with him.
If anyone delays the work, you don't need to say anything, I will personally send him to the military court, and our special forces will also prove this with actions. "
Zhang Qun promised very seriously.
This was also what he thought in his heart. No matter how much he doubted Xia Xu or even his own team leader, they would never disobey the orders they were supposed to execute.
"Then let's all wait and see."
Xia Xu smiled, stood up and stretched out a hand: "I wish us a happy cooperation."
“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”
Zhang Qun also reached out his hand and shook hands with Xia Xu, then asked, "Advisor Xia, you should have a general understanding of the mission case, right? Do you have any suggestions?"
Xia Xu shook his head and said, "I want to go see the rat-faced man you captured first, is that okay?"
The documents that Zhang Qun brought were really not very informative. They mainly recorded some murders. In the end, it was discovered that these tragedies were committed by a rat-faced man who could transform like a werewolf. Yesterday, Uncle Luo led the special operations team to capture this beastman.
The second is some background information about the beastman. He is a clean Xia citizen. He used to work as a night security guard in a factory. He suddenly resigned recently and started to attack people crazily at night.
A slightly more interesting point is that the people he attacked were not eating flesh and blood like werewolves, but simply drinking blood. To be more precise, he used his hollow fangs to suck blood.
"Vampire… no, Batman?"
Xia Xu made some playful guesses in his mind.
This rat-faced man seems to be really related to the werewolf, so it is possible that the bat man appeared after the werewolf. After all, werewolves already exist, so how can there not be vampires who love and kill werewolves in fantasy stories
Don't underestimate the influence of these stories. These stories that have been passed down for a long time in various places essentially represent and influence the cultural concepts of various countries, especially myths and legends, which to a large extent often represent the memes of national civilization.
So if someone really has the technology to create beastmen, then creating the most familiar and common werewolves and vampires would most likely be the first choice, just as the Xia people might try to create monkeys, snakes, or even dragon-like beastmen with a mixture of various characteristics.
This kind of technology, no matter how much you praise it, will not be as shocking as saying that you can create supernatural legendary creatures such as werewolves and vampires, and it will be easier to attract investment from ambitious people.
And if a bat-like beastman could really be created, then its value would definitely be far greater than that of a werewolf. After all, bats are one of the creatures that truly possess "superpowers".
There may be few people who have seen bats in China, but it is common knowledge that bats have ultrasonic echolocation.
If the beastman technology can really reach the level of inheriting the ability of bats, then the batman will be a humanoid sonar radar with various abilities such as echolocation and even emitting ultrasonic waves.
This is much more noble and practical than the werewolf's melee combat that relies purely on alienated physical fitness, and is more in line with the "supernatural" ability.
"Of course, no problem. But Advisor Xia, don't get too close to this monster. The physical fitness of this monster is very terrifying, and we know very little about it. We can't guarantee that there will be no accidents."
Zhang Qun, who had already reached a temporary agreement with Xia Xu, naturally would not refuse Xia Xu's request. After nodding and giving him some instructions, he took Xia Xu on an elevator to the hidden building underground in the branch.
"It's unfair, sir. I'm being wronged. I don't know anything at all. I don't even know what it means to transform into a vampire."
"How can there be vampires in this world? This is ridiculous. How can you abuse me with such a ridiculous excuse? I will sue you."
"Our team leader personally brought your uniform back, and there was also a recording of you in the communication. How do you explain this?"
"I, I don't know. I was unconscious. Could it be that I did it out of instinct after I lost consciousness? Oh, sir, now that you mention it, I remember that I was bitten by something more than a month ago. But it didn't hurt much. I just felt a sting, so I didn't care."
"Sir, was it because I was bitten by a bat at that time that I mutated? This is really not what I wanted to do. My unconscious behavior should be considered as ignorance, right? Can a mental illness be exempted from punishment?"
