Chapter 164: Scarlet Beast 11 ┃ Take the Beast

Views:

Qin Ci looked at Zhu Haowen with a bit of exploration. At this time, his position was the center of the office, and the other ten members were almost sitting around him.

Qin Ci cleared his throat and slightly amplified his voice: "About the beast, I'll tell you a few points first: First of all, the beast is a living body, and its relationship with the human host is a semi-resident, it does not depend on the host's nutrition. Survival, the relationship between many beasts and the host is non-interfering with each other, and even the beast will not affect the weight of the host. In the last century in Xincheng, there was a girl who weighed less than 45 kilograms. A beast weighing 31 kilograms."

Everyone listened quietly, especially the few people who already knew that they had the beasts, their expressions were particularly complicated.

Only Xiao Qinxian, with shining eyes, seemed to foresee that Zhichun and Chi Lei would also have such a big "surprise" in their bodies.

Qin Ci poured cold water on Xiao Qinxian at the right time: "It was an extremely rare special case, so it will go down in history."

Su Benxin wanted to ask what the girl who stripped of the giant beast had experienced before her death, but it was not appropriate to interject at this time, so she patiently waited for Qin Ci to finish.

Sure enough, the next piece of information revealed by Qin Ci was particularly explosive: "At present, the approximate location of the beast in Zhichun's body has been found through the detection equipment."

"And such a detector? Wouldn't it be possible to see the beasts in everyone's body?" Yu Ji couldn't help saying.

"The detector can only detect the beast inside the corpse, and it can only measure the approximate position, but not the size." Qin Ci said sharply, "Zhichun's beast is located on the wrist of the left hand, I can't infer that this is a coincidence. still… "

Lion exclaimed, "He cut his wrist on his left wrist, right?!"

"Yes, it's there." Qin Ci nodded, "We can't infer whether he committed suicide or just wanted to kill the beast hidden in his wrist."

Zhao Yanbao's blurred eyes lit up a little: "I have always expressed doubts about Chi Lei's suicide, even if the motive is removed. I discussed with Mu Yiran just now that suicide is difficult to implement, and no one can do it. The beating of the heart was stopped voluntarily without the aid of external force - it was as if she had died in a deep sleep, and the forensic medical examination did not detect trauma or suffocation."

Mu Yiran: "If you guess right, Chi Lei's beast should be in the heart."

"You mean, they didn't commit suicide, but were killed by the beasts within themselves?!" Yu Ji's expression was extremely frightened.

Zhu Haowen's voice was low and clear: "This is in line with the style of painting."

Yu Ji looked at Zhu Haowen as if he were looking at a monster. The more he thought about the possibility of the beast attacking the host, the more scared he became.

At this time, I suddenly remembered the eager knock on the door, and a nurse pushed the door anxiously and entered: "Doctor Qin! Zhi Chun's body has changed..."

"What's the matter?" Qin Ci hurriedly asked.

"The wound on the left wrist seems to be... something is spilling out..."

All the people are not calm, Qin Ci has already stood up and walked towards the door: "Immediately prepare for the 'beast body stripping operation'!"

If it weren't for these bizarre experiences, the operating room everyone was waiting for would have been perfectly normal - bright corridors, closed operating room doors, a striking 'quiet' on the wall.

About an hour later, a nurse came out of the operating room, and several of the members rushed over with expectant expressions on their faces: "How is it? What's the situation now?! Are you out yet?! "

It was as if the "joy of life" was being staged in the operating room, although the "dead man" who had been stiff for nearly seven hours was pushed into it.

The nurse frowned: "The main body has been peeled off, and now the connected branch pipes are being separated."

It sounds like the umbilical cord is being tidied up.

Xiao Qinxian asked happily, "How many pounds? How many pounds?!"

"Sorry, haven't weighed yet."

Xiao Qinxian's smile has not faded: "Then let's wait a little longer, no hurry."

The nurse looked at the work card on Xiao Qinxian's chest: "Are you a staff member of the forensic makeup room?"

"Yes, I'm a forensic doctor." Xiao Qinxian felt that her profession was quite good in Xincheng.

"Then please start preparing for the burial. The burial period of the deceased should not exceed three days, especially the remains that have undergone animal body stripping, which are particularly prone to decay." The nurse said seriously.

"Oh." Xiao Qinxian's face turned pale, and he hoped that these two people would be able to peel off a beast of more than 13 kilograms from their bodies, so that he would no longer have to engage in the terrible "makeup" work.

Making wedding dresses for dead people is both terrifying and unknown.

It has been half an hour since Dr. Qin walked out of the operating room. He was holding a small glass bottle in his hand. There seemed to be a mass of blood in it, and it seemed to be still moving.

Everyone was a little scared, but their eyes were involuntarily attracted by the red thing, and their eyes were always spinning on it.

Only Ke Xun walked over to take a closer look, and saw a red fleshy mass like a slug in the glass bottle, slowly wriggling. When Ke Xun observed closely, the "slug" seemed to have noticed his gaze and returned. He turned his head towards Ke Xun and stretched out something like a few soft tentacles.

Ke Xun hurried away, feeling very uncomfortable.

"I have already dealt with it, and the next step is to hand it over to the police station." Qin Ci was also wearing a medical mask, which made people feel that this person was as cold and ruthless as a medical device. The weight is 26 grams."

Everyone was silent, and there was a bit of hatred in their eyes that iron could not become steel.

Xiao Qinxian gasped and leaned softly on the rest seat next to her.

"Is it a common phenomenon that this beast overflowed just now?" Mu Yiran asked Qin Ci.

"No, probably because the beast inside felt the air from the wound, so it came out through the 'vent'." Qin Ci said, "The beast left the shell in the blood vessel of the deceased, and it took a lot of effort just now. Just made it out."

"Shell?" Wei Dong interjected, "The beast still has a shell?"

"There is this beast. The shape of the beast is varied, and there is no similarity. It is said that there are cases where the weight is not considered because of its good appearance." Qin Ci lowered his eyes and looked at the soft worm-like beast in the bottle, "Its The shell has been taken for testing, and this shelled beast is very rare."

Xiao Qinxian stood up from the seat again: "Can the weight of the shell also be counted? Is that shell big? Is it heavy? Can something as rare as this be counted as more weight?!"

When Mu Yiran heard this, he raised his eyes, thoughtful.

"The shell is not big, about the same as a snail shell." Qin Ci replied.

"..." Xiao Qinxian turned to look at Zhao Yanbao, "You have the heart to see Chi Lei's body filled with this disgusting slug-like thing? This kind of dirty thing should be taken out quickly, or she will die."

Zhao Yanbao didn't want to talk to Xiao Qinxian.

"I've already stated my position, you guys will discuss it slowly." Zhu Haowen turned around and walked towards the bathroom.

"I agree to take the beast, and I have expressed my opinion." Wei Dong followed Zhu Haowen into the bathroom.

Xiao Qinxian regained his energy: "Me, Lion, Yu Ji, plus that building, there are already four approval votes! Now it's four to one! How about you?"

"Let's stop talking here, go back to the office first." Qin Ci walked to his office while taking off his mask.

Xiao Qinxian followed everyone: "Aren't you too embarrassed to say that you take the beast, but waiting for the beast to overflow by itself is just waiting for the rabbit! If you are all embarrassed, then abstain!"

After entering the office, Xiao Qinxian began to look at the people who didn't express their opinions one by one: "Boss Su, Doctor Qin, two detectives, and this outsider, what do you mean?"

"I want to ask Mr. Yu a few questions before expressing my position." It was Mu Yiran who spoke.

Yu Ji listened attentively: "You please."

"What did Zhichun do or say to you last night, even if you only remember a few words."

Yu Ji scratched his head: "I really don't remember what happened after I went back to the dormitory. I seem to be drunk and crazy, and my roommate seems to be singing with me."

Qin Ci: "I checked some information in the office first, and you all fell asleep after returning to the dormitory."

Su Benxin: "I seem to have heard the song. It's like a children's song. I heard it sing by my little nephew and daughter before. It seems that there are lyrics such as snail running."

Yu Ji himself can't remember: "I really can't remember what happened after returning to the bedroom, I remember when I was walking back from the restaurant, Zhichun stopped at the door of a real estate agency and asked the staff about this. house prices in the city.”

"Why? Does he still want to settle in this ghost place?!" Xiao Qinxian felt a little terrified after saying that - Zhichun really "settled" here.

Yu Ji nodded: "He complained to me about the house prices in the previous world. He said that he could not afford to buy a house after waiting for the price to drop until all his girlfriends were gone."

Everyone sighed for a while, and there was a feeling of waiting for someone to suddenly understand their life after they died.

"If that beast is shelled, it looks like a snail?" Mu Yiran asked Qin Ci.

Qin Ci nodded: "It should look like the shell, but unfortunately I couldn't see the state when the beast and the shell were combined."

Mu Yiran turned his gaze to Zhao Yanbao: "Perhaps the beast is the embodiment of a knot in the heart. If you want to understand Chi Lei's mind, you have to take out her beast."

Zhao Yanbao was thoughtful.

In the bathroom at the moment, Wei Dong looked at Zhu Haowen from the mirror on the sink: "Unfortunately, I can't see the red dot on your forehead, are you not afraid?"

Zhu Haowen smiled: "If I die, you will let Qin Ci dissect me as soon as possible. I also want to know what beast is doing in my body."

"I just thought you were different from normal."

"how?"

"When I first met you, I was in the Tongzilou of Chunsun Apartment. When you were running for your life, you were the first to rush out alone. It was human nature and instinct," Wei Dong turned to look at Zhu Haowen beside him. , "Why aren't you so instinctive today?"

"You mean about my abstention?"

"Yes, you are sympathizing with Zhao Yanbao, or Chi Lei."

"impossible."

"Anyway, you're soft-hearted, don't say that the three of you have feelings for each other for a night."

"They are lovers." Zhu Haowen answered nonchalantly, "Because that third-tier city rejects it, they can only hide it from everyone."

"Oh, I understand." Wei Dong seemed to understand.
