Altai Tavanbogdor National Park Police Station, 3rd Floor Lounge.

This police station is an office and accommodation in one. On the third floor, there is a dormitory area, and the so-called lounge is actually a dormitory.

There are shelf beds on both sides, a square table in the middle, and the furniture is plain, but the view from the window is beautiful.

In the past few days, Lin Shuo and the four of them have settled here, just two shelf beds, divided into bunk beds.

There are two ladies sleeping on the left, Lin Shuo and Wei Xingshan on the right, and the table in the middle is set up during the day, and it is moved to the side at night to draw a curtain of cloth.

Although it was close to evening at the moment, it was still daytime, and the table was set, and Lin Shuo and the four of them were sitting around this table.

Wei Xingshan poured tea for the four of them diligently, lit a cigarette for Lin Shuo, and then asked expectantly: "Old Lin, you have to tell me, what the hell is going on? How do you know that your heart has been eaten?"

Lin Shuo took a puff of cigarette and didn't speak, but glanced at Anne and nodded.

The meaning is clear, that is, now, you can tell these two laymen something.

Anne bowed slightly, and then said, "According to the information we have now, the target of our hunt in this operation is a strange creature called the 'Mountain Yama King'. According to the information obtained by the Hunter Gate and the International Biological Research Association, this 'Mountain Yama King' has a lifespan of more than 50 years, and the threat level is rated as 'SS', which is more ferocious than the hooked snake.

This is also the most dangerous operation since the establishment of our International Biological Research Association. ”

"Mountain Yama King?" Wei Xingshan frowned, "What the hell is this?"

"The people who have seen this thing are all dead, and there are many of the top players in the hunting gate. Lin Shuo said at this time, "So you ask me what this thing is? I don't know." It is only known that when it used to commit murders, it would eat the hearts of its victims, and these victims had no wounds on their bodies.

The most brutal massacre of this beast was the slaughter of an entire village of Qiangdisu thirty years ago, the ancestors of Miss Anne's kindred.

In addition, one of the six leaders of the Hunting Gate, I should call Mr. Zhang Guohua of my uncle, and fought wits and courage with this beast for more than ten years, and finally died in the hands of this beast.

In the past 30 years, it is not only Mr. Zhang Guohua. My father, Miao Guangqi, and Cao Yusheng, the seniors in the hunting sect, have all tried to hunt it, but they have not succeeded.

Frankly, I'm not completely sure about this operation.

So Lao Wei. ”

Having said this, Lin Shuo set his eyes on Wei Xingshan and said: "At this time, in fact, we may not be able to see the sun tomorrow, you are a man who stands up to the sky, don't add to the hearts of your peers." ”

Wei Xingshan was stunned by Lin Shuo's words, and then understood.

He knew what Lin Shuo was referring to.

He glanced at Liu Qing and saw that the woman was also looking at him.

Wei Xingshan looked like he had been electrocuted, quickly took his gaze back, and nodded at Lin Shuo: "Okay, Lao Lin, I'll listen to you." ”

"That's right. Lin Shuo said, "Which of you has Lao Yang's phone?"

"I have. Wei Xingshan, Anne, and Liu Qing spoke in unison.

Then the three of them came back to their senses at the same time, and asked in unison, "You didn't?"

Before, the four of them and Yang Tuo were born and died in Xing'anling, and they didn't say goodbye afterwards, but at least left a phone call for each other, which is human nature.

As a result, Lin Shuo did not.

At the moment, being asked by three people at the same time, Lin Shuo suddenly felt that he seemed to be in the wrong, which made him a little depressed.

"Less nonsense. He rolled his eyes.

......

The police patrol cars are coming back, but it's already dark outside.

It's not like a city, there is no light pollution, once it is cloudy, the night is out of sight.

Although Lin Shuo and Anne are not ordinary people, they can move without hindrance even in dark situations, but considering that there are Mongolian police with them, at Arjuna's suggestion, the four of them decided to finish their meal first, then rest for the night, and set off the next day.

That night, Lin Shuo sent the footprint photo taken today to Yang Tuo in the form of MMS, and then dialed the phone number of the youngest academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The trip to Waixinganling made Lin Shuo realize that this scholar had a clear mind and could discuss things together.

And he is an authority on biology at the international level.

Hunter's understanding of the King of Mountain Yama is too little, and in this case, to solve this beast xenomorph, you can't be empiricist, but you have to believe in science.

"Lao Yang, I'm Lin Shuo. ”

"Hello, please. ”

"Did you get the picture?"

"Well, I looked. ”

"What do you think?"

"Tiger footprints. ”

"I think so too, the features are too distinct, but is the tiger so big?"

"It's a little weird, have you been to the scene?"

"Not yet, I'll go tomorrow. ”

"When you go to the site, you ask Miss Anne to take some soil samples from the footprints and send them over, and I'll see if I can find the skin debris of this thing. If I can find it, I'll do a genetic map to see what the species is. ”

"Okay. ”

Hanging up the phone, Lin Shuo lay on the top bunk of the shelf bed, his hands on the back of his head, and looked at the ceiling for a while.

Wei Xingshan, who was on the lower bunk, got out of bed, stood up and glanced at Lin Shuo, and asked, "Old Lin, what are you thinking?"

The curtain was lifted, and Anne and Liu Qing walked over from the other side of the room in their pajamas.

Lin Shuo looked at the three people beside the bed and frowned: "Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night, why do you come here?"

"I can't sleep. Wei Xingshan said, "In the evening, you said about the King of Mountain Yama, and my heart is not in decline, Lao Lin, you can say a little more." ”

"I know so much, how can I say more, make up stories?" Lin Shuo glanced at the strong man, and then looked at Anne, "But now, you can analyze and analyze it first." ”

"Then you analyze it. Wei Xingshan said.

"At present, we have a total of two pieces of information about the King of Mountain Yama. Lin Shuo said, "One is the cause of the victim's death, and the other is the footprints at the scene." But you don't find that the two are actually contradictory. ”

"I found out a long time ago. Wei Xingshan patted the bed frame, "But your old Lin has always been mysterious, I thought I was stupid, so I was embarrassed to ask." ”

"Then tell me, where is the contradiction?" Lin Shuo asked.

Wei Xingshan compared a size on his chest: "Such a big footprint, then this thing, the size has to catch up with the elephant, right? Such a big guy, eat so delicately, only eat the heart, not other parts? If it eats in this way, it will not starve to death?"

Take me as an example, my old Wei is 1.98 meters tall and weighs 100 kilograms, and he can eat steamed buns, rice, and meat, so he is annoyed to eat seafood, either shells or thorns, and it is delicious to return and eat, but no matter how full he is!

Especially crabs, huh, this is troublesome.

You think, the size of this thing, eating the heart does not leave a wound. This difficulty is like my old Wei eating crabs, and after eating, the crab shells can still be put together.

How is this possible?"

Lin Shuo nodded: "It's not stupid, it's to the point." ”

"Not really!"

"Then think about it again, under what circumstances can you eat the heart without leaving a wound on the surface of the body?" Lin Shuo asked.

"Special features. Wei Xingshan said solemnly, "This trick is called taking things from the air." It must have the ability to do this, otherwise why can't you do it before hunting?"

"It's a no-brainer. Lin Shuo glanced at the giant man and looked at Anne.

"Mouth. Anne replied, "Thirty years ago, when the Su family was killed, my mentor did an autopsy on the victim. The esophagus of these bodies were found to be ruptured. The king of Yama should have used some kind of mouthpart to penetrate the victim's mouth into the body, and then punctured the esophagus to suck the heart. Today's female forensic doctor in Outer Mongolia may be too young, and she panicked when she saw her heart missing, and she didn't check the situation of her esophagus carefully. ”

"Is the size of the esophageal breach to allow the heart to pass through?" Lin Shuo asked.

"It's hard. Anne recalled, "I read the autopsy report from my mentor back then, and the hole was only three centimeters. ”

That means that the heart has been crushed, or dissolved by stomach acid spit out of the mouthparts, and then sucked up. Lin Shuo said, "Speaking of which, there may be tissue cells in the victim's body. ”

"I know what to do. Anne nodded, "Give me twenty minutes before you leave tomorrow." ”

"Remember to send it to Yang Tuo. Lin Shuo reminded, "He is in Lanzhou, which is closer than the European headquarters of the International Biological Research Association." ”

"Good. ”
