"According to the current analysis of the situation, the woman did not lie, and indeed did not find any other symptoms.

As soon as tomorrow's analysis report comes out, everything will be revealed.

You take a break, I'll ask my assistant to clean up the equipment, and we'll start the next treatment right away.

It's just who do you want to come first?" asked Monica.

Seriously, maybe Monica didn't mean to, but the question stumped Philip and froze for a moment.

In terms of feelings, Catherine is naturally more profound, and the accumulation of feelings in the previous ten years has made Philip full of strong admiration for this woman.

But when it comes to injuries, the rational choice should be Yun'er, the loss of the spirit core is not serious, and the delay of too long will inevitably have an impact on her future awakening and qualifications.

From this point of view, Catherine, who is already middle-aged, seems to be able to slow down a little.

But Philip couldn't open his mouth, just sat there, Kabakaba mouthed, and didn't make a sound.

Jane sensed Philip's hesitation and embarrassment, and was about to open her mouth to do this wicked man for him, but Brad grabbed her and shook his head at her.

"Let him decide for himself. ”

Suddenly, Philip laughed, without warning, and then leaned back with a smile that made the people around him look at him dumbfounded, wondering what was wrong with him.

Philip finally stopped laughing and sat down in his chair, panting slightly.

At the moment just now, he seemed to be caught in the most difficult problem in the history of his previous life, whether to save his mother or daughter-in-law first, and he was hesitant and tangled.

But when his eyes fell on those huge jars, he suddenly realized that he was stupid and naïve.

He smiled and asked Priest Monica, "Can this device connect three people at the same time?"

Monica was stunned for a moment, then immediately laughed too, patted her head and said, "It's not good to blame me, I'm too busy to faint." You go get something to eat and you'll be ready in no time. ”

After saying that, she turned around and left, she also needed to take a break, the consumption tonight was too great.

Fortunately, this displacement ritual only needs to be performed at the beginning, and then just watched.

Philip took a sandwich that Jane had prepared and ate it, but didn't notice the worried look in Brad's eyes behind him.

Does this grandson take that little girl too seriously, it seems that no matter how perfect a teenager is, he is still a teenager after all, and he has weaknesses.

Until dawn, Philip, who had not slept all night, was in good spirits, sitting on the edge of Catherine's bed, looking at the sleeping face, and kissing her on the face.

"Mom, wake up quickly. He prayed with all his heart.

As if hearing his pleading, or being disturbed by his kiss, Catherine frowned, and her closed eyes opened a slit.

Catherine had a dream, a long, long dream, in which she walked in a sea of white mist.

The world was covered in a thick white fog, and it was impossible to see the way from which I came, nor could I find the direction to leave.

No matter which way she went, it was as if she was spinning in circles, and the scenery around her did not change in the slightest.

Suddenly, she remembered what had happened before she fell unconscious, and she began to run anxiously, calling out urgently, "Emma, Isabella, Philip, Yun'er." ”

But as she shouted, the scene around her suddenly changed, and the white mist suddenly turned into blue monsters, waving long tentacles and rolling towards her.

A short sword also inexplicably appeared in her hand.

So Catherine bravely fought against these octopus-like monsters, for she was a mother, and she had to find none of her children.

But there were too many monsters, thousands of them, overwhelmingly rushing at her.

I don't know how long it was, maybe it was just a few minutes, maybe it was a whole year.

Her dagger was rusty and stubble, and her body was covered in bruises and flesh.

But she didn't give up, and stubbornly persevered in the fight against the monsters, until she exhausted the last of her strength and fell to the ground, overwhelmed by the crazy monsters.

Just when she was about to despair, she suddenly heard a cry "Mom".

It was Philip's voice, and she could tell it at once, very clearly, as if it were right next to her.

Then, a drizzle fell, and two identical Philip appeared in the drizzle, one with blue hair and the other with green hair.

Both Phillips were armed with broadswords and were heavily armed to fight the monsters.

Countless monsters wailed and screamed in the light of the sword, and finally turned into nothingness, without any resistance at all, especially the blue-haired Philip was even more heroic.

"Mom, wake up quickly. ”

Eventually, both sons put away their weapons, came to her, and gradually became one, smiling, and extending their hands to her.

Catherine struggled to open her eyes, and at first glance she saw Philip's handsome little face, less than a meter away from her, and her eyes were full of concern and worry.

"Philip, are you alright? As soon as she said a word, Catherine felt that her voice was a little strange, as if it were much hoarse.

Philip hurriedly poured a glass of water, held Catherine's back, and served her to drink it slowly.

This time Catherine was much better, touching her son's familiar face, reluctant to let go of her hand, but her eyes kept looking at his long white and blonde hair.

Philip was looked a little strange by Catherine and asked, "Mom, how are you feeling, what's wrong with it?"

Catherine didn't answer, but asked suddenly excitedly looking at the gauze around his neck and chest.

"Are you hurt?"

It was only after saying that Catherine was convinced that he had only suffered some minor injuries and had been properly treated, which put her at ease.

Immediately afterwards, Philip gave a general introduction to the situation.

Despite her mental preparation, when she confirmed from her son's mouth that Mama Bertha had unfortunately died, she broke down and began to cry.

Philip took Catherine in his arms, the woman who had given him so much comfort, but now she was crying like a child, shrinking into his arms and twitching.

"Mom, now is not the time to be sad, you can't fall, there is another person who needs you very much at the moment. In desperation, Philip had no choice but to make a big move to divert Catherine's attention.

"Who is it?" Catherine tensed, and became more and more afraid of hearing another bad news from Philip's mouth.

"It was little Bella, she was so frightened that she didn't sleep all night. ”

Catherine realized that she had forgotten the two little babies before, and was about to get up, but she pulled the wound and sat back down.

"I'll go and bring them. Philip said quickly.

Until everyone who received the news gathered in this room, even Stephanie and Bruce came, and the twin sisters were pulled into the room by Jane with one hand.

Little Emma was fine, little Bella broke free of Jane's hand and pounced on her as soon as she saw Catherine.

It wasn't until she threw herself into Catherine's arms that the little girl who hadn't cried finally began to cry, and her little body twitched one by one, making all the people around her cry.

Bruce patted Philip on the shoulder and asked, "How are you?"

He is in the fourth grade this year, and he has been interning in the Wild Lion Division for more than a month, so he rushed back this morning when the city gate was wide open.

"I'm fine, and it's great to see you. Philip said heartily.

Bruce nodded, and he didn't know how to persuade him at the moment, so he pulled Philip outside and lit a cigarette for him.

"How's Yun'er?" he asked, a little chattering.

He naturally knew about Alexandra before, but he couldn't do anything about it, and Yun'er had been avoiding him, which made him very embarrassed.

Philip bumped his shoulder, which was considered comforting: "Her injuries are much worse than her mother's, so Monica Priest used medicine to make her lie still for a while, I'm afraid she won't wake up until tomorrow." ”

"Didn't you say poisoning?"

"It's almost solved, I'll make sure again today, in case anything changes. ”

"These damn bastards, they've all been caught, right?"

Philip nodded, and the fierceness and hideousness in his eyes made Bruce a little frightened.

Although this cousin seems to be gentle on weekdays, his heart is really not very big, but this is the first time that he has unreservedly expressed his inner emotions in front of him.

He scratched his scalp and said, "Chris, they all asked me to say hello, but now that the Four Masters are all in a hurry, they can't enter the city at this time."

The quarantine order around me was only withdrawn this morning, and I still had a special decree from the Marquis of Noe to come in. ”

Philip nodded and said, "Thank them for me, and when this matter is over, we will find another opportunity to drink." ”

"It doesn't matter what you hurt, right?"

"It's just a minor injury, it's a little lighter than the one you had with you in training last year. ”

"Then you also have to pay attention to maintenance, my dad just didn't pay attention to it when he was young, and now he has an old injury, which itches every winter, and the temple is helpless. ”

There were no impassioned words, and there was no shouting to kill all the enemies, but such simple care made Philip's heart warm, and the cruelty in his heart gradually subsided.

"I'll go to the temple and I'll leave it to you at home. Philip said as he snuffed out his cigarette.

"Well, if there's something, send someone back to say hello. ”

The brothers hugged each other tightly again, patting each other on the back and crackling before parting.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Philip returned to the interrogation room again, taking Murphy with him.

After seeing the paladin's power, the man seemed a little reluctant.

"I can't let her see my face, and when the subject is defensive, the success rate of the ability will be greatly reduced. He said in a deep voice.

"Then put on your armor and helmet, and go in with me and stand right behind me. Philip commanded.

It's just that Murphy didn't move, but pulled Philip to a corner where no one was around, and asked cautiously, "After today's interrogation, will you really let me go as agreed?"

Philip glanced at him, not at all surprised that he would ask the question, in fact even he was not sure whether he would fulfill his contract now.

For him when he was a child, Murphy was naturally extremely powerful, but for him now, Murphy's combat power is just like that, but this control skill is too bad, and he really wants to use it for his own use.

And Murphy's status is low, and he can't be on the stage, so it's perfect to deal with some secret things.

What's more, Murphy obviously concealed some things before, that is, he knew about the shocking explosion outside the imperial capital, and he also knew very well about the hidden secrets inside.

Such a person, to be honest, Philip has quite an impulse to kill what I can't get, and no one can get it.

Although he can lie to him, Philip doesn't want to do it, he has to be careful, and Murphy is delicate and not as rough as he looks.

He said, "You also saw yesterday that the temple has been on guard against you, and without Lady Maya changing your appearance, where can you go?"

We'll talk about it after today, but I promise you, whatever you choose, I won't stop you if you want to go, and I'll give you a sum of money.

Like you said, it's for Yun'er's sake.

As for believe it or not, that's your business. ”

After saying that, he wanted to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Murphy again.

"I don't need your money, on the contrary, I may give you a sum of money, depending on whether you have the courage to take it. ”

Murphy's words took Philip by surprise, and he rolled his eyes and asked, "Battier's business network?"

Murphy didn't expect him to react so quickly, and nodded: "Although Battier's awakening ability is average, he is a business wizard, even if he doesn't count those smuggling and trafficking children, his industry in the Imperial Alliance is an astronomical amount.

As his daughter, these are all in the hands of this woman, but she is the key offender of the temple, and it depends on your ability whether you dare to snatch food from their mouths. ”

Honestly, Philip was moved.

He has money in his hands, but it's just that for ordinary people, if he wants to do something big, it's not enough.

What is even more rare is the business network that Battier has built up over the decades, which is not something that can be done with money, but requires countless people and countless hours to accumulate.

But the cake was too big for him to eat, and he needed a reliable partner.

After a deep groan, he approached Murphy, looked at the old face covered with vicissitudes and asked, "What do you want?"

Murphy shook his head and said, "I want a guarantee from the temple, two completely legal identities, and the opportunity to live in this world openly." ”

"Do you trust their assurances?"

"No, I trust you, trust Xiaoyun. ”

Philip fell silent, thinking.

This time he fully understood that all he needed to do was an intermediary, a broker, and if the deal between Murphy and the Temple went well, he would naturally get his share of the reward.

Philip nodded and motioned for Murphy to wait outside, while he himself came to Leonardo's room and knocked on the door: "Teacher, can I come in?"

I don't know what kind of dirty deal he and Leonardo had made, but the two of them talked in the room for half an hour.

After that, the paladin left, and disappeared for about half an hour, but when he returned, he had a distinct smile on his face, and looked at Philip with a more kind gaze.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Murphy followed Philip into the interrogation room.

She was not wearing a full suit of armor, for the woman was still hanging there, but she had fainted.

There was no one else in the entire interrogation room except Leonardo, Philip, and Murphy, and the interrogation went unusually well.

But the result surprised Philip, who was glad that he had made a decision last night.

The woman, whose real name is Juno, is Battier's only daughter and the new leader of the infamous Red Skull Thieves.

This poison called pulling the machine was prepared by herself, but the third effect did not lie, it did speed up the body's metabolism, which was completely consistent with the test results that came out at noon that day.

But Juno lied about the Desperate Virus, not telling the full truth.

Because according to the information provided by the seller of this virus, and Juno's test, the first 10 hours of infection with this virus is considered the incubation period, the activity is relatively low, and the harm is not very great.

But after 10 hours, the speed and destructive power of the virus will increase exponentially, and then every 10 hours will usher in a concentrated outbreak.

It is impossible for an unawakened adult to survive for three days at most, and a first-level awakened person can only survive for seven to ten days, and second-level awakening does not exceed a month.

The poisoned do not die immediately, but gradually lose their minds and even their memories, and become stupid walking corpses, attacking others under the control of the virus.

Even a small sore will allow it to find a new host.

Thankfully, Philip and Leonardo are extremely fragile and need to be kept with great care.

On the other hand, the original stock of virus was small, only enough to be smeared on two daggers.

And once the virus begins to multiply in the human body, with the death of the first generation of the original virus, the new viruses in the later generations can only reproduce for ten generations at most after combining the spiritual power of the first generation host, and will automatically lose the ability to continue to multiply, and slowly wither and die.

The ability and scope of the virus to spread from person to person has been greatly reduced.

Otherwise, they didn't dare to imagine what a terrifying scene this virus would cause once it quietly spread in Gaokan City, spreading indefinitely.

The zombie virus, this is the virus with the most similar nature that Philip can think of.

It's just unclear whether the virus itself is like this, or if it's artificially limited in lifespan.

If it is the latter, then it is terrible, and the owner of the primordial virus is equivalent to holding a weapon capable of subverting the entire human civilization, like holding the sword of Dacromos.

Although the biotechnology of this world is far from reaching such a height, it cannot stop the help of those high-tech from the extraterrestrial universe, which makes people think about it carefully.
