CHAPTER XXIX
When Old Man He knew that it was Yu Changxi's girl who told the little guy, his wrinkled old face instantly changed color.
The little one sat back on the threshold, his chubby little hands on his chin, not knowing what he was thinking.
After Bo Fan went back, he still opened the paper, only to see a line of words written in it, a crooked font, which looked like it was from Yu Changxi's hand.
It reads: Hidden in the city, there are traces to follow.
Bo Fan understood the meaning of this sentence, that is, the alien was hidden in the crowd, although it was very hidden and cunning, but it could still be traced.
Was she comforting him?
With such a simple sentence, wouldn't she just tell him directly? Why do you still go around in such a big circle?
As soon as he thought of this, he drove to Yu Changxi's downstairs again, he didn't have the key now, so he could only call her by car.
Yu Changxi's old man jumped wildly on the phone, but she didn't even look at it, she just stretched out her hand and turned it off again.
Bo Fan's brain hurt from the busy sound coming from the earpiece, he went upstairs without saying a word, he knocked on the door, no one answered, he shouted a few more times, still no one paid attention to him, and attracted the eyes of the neighbors next to him to explore.
Although he was wearing plain clothes, his imposing temperament was there, and the neighbor only thought that the poor girl's boyfriend on the other side was coming, but the two had an awkward quarrel, and the girl was hanging him.
So the neighbor said to Bo Fan from the perspective of a passer-by: "This woman, she is like water, she will boil if you add firewood, and she will freeze when you cool down, so ah, young man, life can't be too rigid, don't care about face when you should admit your mistakes, face can be worth a few dollars." ”
Bo Fan didn't intend to explain, but just smiled politely and listened politely.
The neighbor secretly glanced at the busy figure in his house, and then at Yu Changxi's closed door.
He said mysteriously, "The girl in that room is your girlfriend, right?" ”
Bo Fan nodded.
He added: "That girl is very strange, just now a group of people came to her, but I don't know what to say, and soon left again." ”
Bo Fan's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "What about her?" ”
The neighbor sighed and shook his head.
Bo Fanxin's heart was immediately raised, he thought that Yu Changxi had encountered something wrong, and it was not Yu Changxi who hung up his phone just now, so he ......
He didn't dare to think about it, and was about to ask the neighbor if he had seen which direction they were going, but the neighbor smiled mysteriously, he walked into Bo Fan, and said in a low voice: "Those people don't seem to be your girlfriend's opponents, several big men with five big and three thick noses and swollen faces were beaten, and one of them still cried and left, ashamed to death." ”
After speaking, he looked at Bo Fan with a regretful expression, and mourned for him in his heart.
Met such a violent girlfriend, although disabled, but the combat effectiveness is really strong, this young man is really pitiful, every day is scared and frightened.
In such a comparison, his family's mouth can only be regarded as a small fight.
Of course, Bo Fan didn't know that the old man in front of him, who seemed to be kind, had already classified him into the category of strict wife control in his heart.
His heart was like a roller coaster, and he didn't have time to pay attention to the next chatter of his neighbors, so he kicked the door open.
The locked newly renovated security door was kicked open by him, and the door dangled on the door frame like an angry little girl, waiting for her husband to comfort her.
The kind-faced neighbor was frightened by Bo Fan, and thought that the little girl had met a violent boyfriend, so he hurriedly ran up a few steps to persuade him to fight, for fear that the two would not be able to fight.
In the house, a rude woman with a kitchen knife rushed out in a few steps, and the kind neighbor only felt a pain in his ears, and this familiar feeling made his body tremble, and he hurriedly told him, "Wife, I was wrong. ”
The woman asked him what was wrong all the way, and the man had to roll his eyes and find countless reasons to prevaricate.
And here, Yu Changxi sat alone in the center of the living room, the room that was originally cleaned up and placed in a serious and orderly manner was already a mess, and things were thrown everywhere.
The curtains still hadn't been opened, and the room was pitch black, and the sky outside was dark, making the room even more eerie.
Out of professional sensitivity, Bo Fan saw the doorway at a glance.
Yu Changxi: Is this being robbed again?
Without waiting for Bo Fan to speak, Yu Changxi's voice came, "It's them, come to find the recipe for the potion." ”
Yu Changxi himself didn't know what the potion formula was, so he couldn't give it to them.
Even if she really knew, she shouldn't give it with her character.
"What's the recipe?"
"Changing the recipe of genes to make more Inhumans, or more precisely, an obedient puppet."
Yu Changxi's whole person was hidden in the dark, only her cold voice could be heard, and there was a vague figure with only an outline.
Bo Fan's hand was put in his trouser pocket, and he stood at the door without entering.
His hand habitually groped on the cigarette case, and was about to take out a cigarette and light the lighter, but the cigarette was already in his mouth, and as soon as the lighter was pressed, he stopped again.
It occurred to him that there was someone here who didn't like the smell of tobacco.
Yu Changxi glanced up at him, but the flash of the lighter made the cinnabar mole on the corner of his right eye extremely crimson, as if it had been stained with a drop of blood.
"They didn't work out." Yu Changxi said again.
Bo Fan's tall body leaned against the crumbling door frame, and the lighter was bored by him, and the fire flickered and dimmed.
He pondered for a moment with a heavy face, and then spoke: "They have mutated, whether it is those dozens of corpses, or the mysterious people who can fly on the wall and walk on the ground, all of them show that they are getting stronger step by step. ”
Yu Changxi sneered: "Ten years ago, the aliens still had the power to call the wind and rain, they, hum!" ”
She seemed ashamed to even mention them, and only used the word "they" instead.
According to the survey, Inhumans ten years ago were at their peak, and they were the most successful Inhumans they had made so far.
Not only can you use the power of wind and rain for your own use, but you can also use their power to conjure up indestructible weapons.
It is said that at the beginning, he also used the most mysterious force in Huanan Province, and also used a hot weapon to bombard, although in the end he killed the shark and successfully destroyed those hateful potions, but in the end, the most casualties were ordinary people, and the ingredients of the potion have not been able to be studied.
Bo Fan didn't dare to imagine where the ancestors who were only flesh and blood back then got the courage to collide with the iron walls of the aliens, but this spirit is immortal, and he firmly believes that today's police will never be greedy for life and afraid of death.
Yu Changxi kept frowning, and the sentence kept echoing in her mind: What you think is not what you think, what you believe is the least thing you should believe, you are dead but still alive.
This sentence was once told to her by Old Man He, and there is another sentence: How big your world is depends on how wide your horizon is.
She didn't know the true meaning of these two sentences at the time, but now that she thought about it, she thought she should have understood.
"You're not hurt, are you?" Bo Fan put down the lighter, thought about it, or turned on the headlights in the living room and walked in.
With a weak woman like Yu Changxi who can't resist on her shoulders and can't lift her hands, he doesn't know what method she uses to protect herself.
But from the mouth of the next-door neighbor, I learned that Yu Changxi was not only not hurt, but also beat others to the point that his nose was blue and his face was swollen.
"They're just a bunch of minions, not aliens." When she said that, she was explaining.
"What about you?" Bo Fan walked in front of Yu Changxi with a complicated look in his eyes.
Yu Changxi looked up at him, his eyes facing each other.
"You're a police officer, you have the final say." Yu Changxi didn't look over his head and played with the pocket watch in his hand.
The watch looked a little old, the original gold-plated case had been discolored, only the hands were still stubbornly moving around minute by minute, making a ticking sound, very soft, almost inaudible, and loud in this quiet room, the only source of sound in silence.
The gold chain connected to the dial seemed to be made of real gold, which was discarded by Yu Changxi at will, and the chain hung weakly on the blanket.
Bo Fan frowned, and said this sentence again.
I still remember that not long after she took Yu Changxi out, she also said something similar, and he was so angry at that time.
The police are not saints, how can they be all-encompassing, and always prevent being pulled out and slipped out for no reason.
"Why are they coming to you?" Calm down, and all that is left in my mind is doubts.
Yu Changxi still didn't look up, and his voice was fluttering, "Formula." ”
"Do you have a recipe?" Bo Fan's mind had deeper questions.
Yu Changxi shook his head.
Bo Fan asked again: "Then why are they looking for you?" ”
Yu Changxi looked at the watch in his hand coldly, and shook his head again.
Bo Fan knew that Yu Changxi must know something, otherwise the world is so big, why is there only Yu Changxi who is looking for that group of people?
He didn't plan to ask further, because he knew that even if he asked Yu Changxi, it would be impossible to tell him, so he could only wait for her to figure it out and say it herself.
But time is pressing, they are stepping on the blade step by step, if they are one step late, that group of people may succeed in a big step, and he will not think about the consequences, because he dare not think about it.
Before he came, he had already arranged for people to investigate all the owners of large factories in the city, and also checked all the abandoned factories and warehouses that had not yet had time to plan, and he did not even let go of the rental house, and he could not let go of any corner of any place that could become an Inhuman Research Institute.
He expected that the Inhumans had already learned the news, and that they should have evacuated by now.
But they have worked hard for so many years, so many test specimens that have been raised, it is impossible to completely evacuate them in a day or two, and now the shot is still not finished, only if they catch a few fish that slip through the net, there will definitely be further harvests.
Yu Changxi saw the small plan in Bo Fan's heart, and she couldn't help but strike: "There will always be a big step between reality and imagination, Team Bo, if I were you, I would go to those biology graduate students more, maybe there will be a big harvest." ”
