The second hospital of the city, on the 6th floor of the inpatient department, because Shen Luo was an important witness to the case, he was specially arranged in an exclusive VIP ward, and at this time, the two policemen stood in front of Shen Luo, who had woken up.

One of them was a policeman named Yu Ji who was pressing Shen Luo to stop the bleeding at that time, and the other was a female policeman named Cao Xiaoxin.

"Is there anything else you would like to add about what happened that day?" Yu Ji flipped through the transcript from the beginning and asked Shen Luo again.

Shen slightly hesitated and said, "Can I ask you a question?"

"You say. ”

"Why are you okay at that time!"

Yu Ji knew what Shen Luo meant, because the transcript mentioned that everyone on the floor where the entire hotel banquet hall was located, including the three policemen who entered later, were all affected by the cake and died violently under the grabbing of food, only Shen Luo was an exception, and Yu Ji and his colleagues who came to support later were also an exception.

"This is also the question we are wondering about, we even suspected that you did something to commit this murder in the hotel, if it weren't for the fact that the three-tiered cake would really recover on its own, who would believe your words if you didn't witness this bizarre thing?"

"But in fact, that birthday cake, in addition to self-recovery, does not affect anyone at all, our forensic doctor did experiments on animals, and after eating them, the experimental animals did not have an irrepressible appetite. ”

"Our forensic doctor is a fierce man, he simply took himself to do the test, ate more than a dozen cakes, and all the tests proved that the cake is really just a cake, or a cake that has passed the expiration date, yes, just in the 7 days you were in the hospital, the cake has deteriorated, and even moldy, his characteristics are really the same as the cake, the taste is the same, the shelf life is also short, the only thing that cannot be explained by science is the inability of the cake, it seems to always be a whole appearance, one less piece is an instant recovery of a piece. ”

Shen slightly lowered his head and was silent, he remembered a word.

He looked up at Yu Ji, "Do you know the containment?"

"Containment?" Yu Ji clearly didn't understand the concept of the word containment.

"You mean the containment described in the novel!"

Cao Xiaoxin, the policewoman on the side, her eyes lit up, "I've been thinking about this for a long time, you know? When I came into contact with this bizarre case, I wondered if it would be a containment object, but, but it's a novel, where can there be such a thing in real life, it's not scientific at all, it's unreasonable!"

"Unscientific, unreasonable? The existence of the cake itself is unreasonable and indispensable, can this be explained by the current science?"

Yu Ji looked at Cao Xiaoxin seriously, "Since you have such an idea, you should report it as soon as possible, eliminate all possibilities, and the rest is incredible, it is likely to be the truth of the facts!"

"I, I know, not next time. Cao Xiaoxin said weakly.

"So let me see what containment is. Yu Ji took out her mobile phone and looked at the shelter, "Eh, I can't find it at all, don't you have a specific explanation?

"As I understand it, a containment object is something that has one or more unnatural properties, it can be a living thing, a dead thing, a word, a concept, an area, a creation, etc. Cao Xiaoxin began to explain.

"The birthday cake in this case has two unnatural properties, one is indispensable, and the other is mental distortion!"

Obviously, she has read a lot of novels in this area, and her understanding is deep enough, "No, the containment objects are all absolute characteristics, if it is just a distortion of the mind, it should continue to distort the minds of others in the future, so that people who come into contact with, see it, or are within the scope of its influence have a strong desire to eat it, so it also has another characteristic, what is it?" Cao Xiaoxin frowned and thought.

"Birthday cake characteristics!" Shen Luo took over, "That's right, the characteristics of the birthday cake, its characteristics are: only the birthday star cuts the first piece, and the guests can share the food, otherwise they will be distorted by the heart!"

"It's... It's too weird, isn't it?" Cao Xiaoxin doubted, "And this kind of rule that the birthday star eats the first cake is not dead, how can it have to be like this...", she stopped refuting halfway through, "Yes, if you are a containment, it can be this kind of characteristic, and it can be explained." ”

Yu Ji still didn't understand what a containment was, but it didn't prevent him from understanding Shen Luo and Cao Xiaoxin's words, "I still want to ask questions, the characteristics of the birthday cake can't explain that it can't affect you." ”

"So, that cake should have three or four characteristics. ”

"First, indispensability. ”

"Second, the characteristics of the birthday cake. ”

"Third, mind-twisting. ”

"The second trait takes precedence over mind distortion, when the Birthday Cake trait is implemented, the Mind Distortion and Birthday Cake trait disappear temporarily or permanently, and the reason why I am not affected is either because I am born with the Mind Resistance trait and am immune to its mental distortion on me, or the fourth trait of the cake: Special Directionality!"

"What do you mean?" Cao Xiaoxin asked.

"Because it's my birthday, the birthday cake is especially pointed at me, so there is a high probability that I must eat this cake on my birthday every year, otherwise there will be another group mind distortion event. ”

"Of course, it may also be because I cut the first knife on the day of the birthday party, so it pointed at me, in this way, it may be a lucky thing, because the conditions for the triggering of the characteristics of this containment object have become harsh, as long as the cake is not allowed to appear at the birthday party, and no one is allowed to cut the first knife, then the containment object's mind distortion will not be triggered, and it will not cause a tragedy similar to this one!"

Speaking of tragedy, Shen Luo lowered his head again, the death of relatives and friends, the pain left in his heart may never be eliminated, even if he has no idea of seeking death now, but the sadness that lingers in his heart cannot be healed so quickly.

Since I don't plan to die, at least make the rest of my life worthwhile!

"Officer Yu, can I apply to be a containment agent for Cake?"

"Containment procedures?" is it another web novel term, but Yu Ji can roughly understand its meaning literally.

"Because many of the characteristics of the containment object are harmful, and even affect the living environment of this world, and even lead to the destruction of the entire universe, it must be contained and managed to avoid the spread of its harm, and the method of containment management is containment measures, and the reason why the containment object is called a containment object is therefore from it. ”

Cao Xiaoxin still explained to Yu Ji, "I think his opinion can be considered, judging from the inference just now, he is the most suitable containment measure for this containment object!"

"You will be discharged from the hospital in three days, and in the days before you are discharged, I will compile and form a report on the containment, and if the superior approves the containment statement, I will submit your application to the organization. ”

"Thank you, Officer Yu!"

Yu Ji smiled: "Have a good rest, your stab is not accurate, you didn't hurt the artery, this is God's will to let you live well, for your dead relatives and friends, you have to live well, promise me, don't look for death again!"

"Officer Yu!" Shen Luo didn't expect Yu Ji to come to comfort himself, "You are a good person!"

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that I was actually issued a good person card by a man!"

Yu Ji took the record and said to Cao Xiaoxin, "Go back and work overtime and help me write a report together, I still haven't made clear those Internet words!" and waved goodbye to Shen Luo, "Have a good rest, goodbye!"

Shen Luo watched Yu Ji and Cao Xiaoxin leave, and saw the nurse on the ward rounds come in, the nurse changed Shen Luo's medicine, checked the wound, said that he was recovering well, and told Shen Luo to get out of bed and walk around more.

Shen Luo was lazy to move, so he turned on the TV in the ward and watched it, if it was a VIP ward, this TV was still a curved large screen.

But there are no good programs, and I am also absent-minded, so I pressed down one channel after another, and finally stopped at the news program of the local station.

"The bodies of three sixty-year-old men and four high school girls were found in Jian'an Park, and according to witnesses at the scene, several elderly people and high school girls were naked, and it was suspected that they had done unspeakable things before they died... The reporter went to the police station, but the police did not disclose any details of the case, a wave of unsettled wave after wave, as we all know, the hotel had a large collective food poisoning death incident, but was questioned by the masses, thinking that it was artificially poisoned, this time there are also people who think that the police have something to hide, that the people should have the right to know, the police should not hide the truth..."

Seven naked corpses? Shen slightly felt that this matter would not be simple.
