July 13, 2045, 7:30 a.m., "How did we guess the time of death?" Ma Gan asked in a skeptical tone.

Zhong Li replied with a disdainful face: "The mechanism of change of corpses in space is completely different from that on Earth, but there are still rules to follow. I've done research on this and have published several papers......"

Ma Qian was not very interested in the paper, "What about the accuracy of the detected time of death?" ”

"Plus or minus six hours, the change of corpses in space over time is much slower than on Earth, so the accuracy of death time will be correspondingly greater than on Earth."

"Strange. They weren't killed at the same time, and the time was still so long. Ma Gan stared at these dates and kept thinking, which explained why the few people in the self-service room did not communicate at all: there was no way to communicate with the people who had died before, and there was no need to communicate.

But what was the reason why they didn't notice the death of their companions? Does it mean that every time a crew member dies, someone comes out to impersonate? But on the airtight spaceship, where are these people who are going to impersonate them? And why not kill all the astronauts together and then impersonate them en masse? ”

"So how did they die?" After Ma Gan looked at the corpses of the astronauts, he looked at Zhongli Ash with inquiring eyes.

"I don't know." Zhongli replied confidently. Ma Gan looked at Zhong Lishen with surprised eyes: "Is it because they are not injured at all?" ”

"No, their injuries were so severe that I couldn't tell what caused them."

Zhong Lishen said this, and lifted the white cloth on the body of one of the astronauts. The chest cavity of the corpse had been cut open during the autopsy, and Ma Gan saw the astronaut's inside, which was empty except for a pile of intestines unrestrained and spread out on it.

"Huh? What about his internal organs? Did you put them in jars? ”

"I have no desire to collect human organs." Zhongli Ash pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, "Their internal organs seem to have disappeared out of thin air, because there are no wounds on their bodies. ”

Ma Gan shook his head and expressed disbelief: "Is there really no wound?" Zhong Li Gray thought for a moment: "No, unless it is to take advantage of the gap of the person himself. "A gap in itself?" "Yes, such as your mouth, nose and anus."

"You're saying someone stole their entrails out of these gaps? Is this possible? Zhongli shrugged: "I didn't say that, and in that case, it will inevitably leave marks on the body." ”

Zhongli Ash lifted the white cloth from several other corpses one after another. Ma Gan saw that they were all the same, and lost their internal organs. Looking at these astronauts who had lost everything, Ma Gan was very helpless, but he really couldn't think of why.

"By the way, do you have any research results on the black shell you sent before?" Ma Qian remembered the thing that almost killed them, and asked Zhong Lishen. "I've already studied that."

"Did you find anything?" "It's a bunch of substances that contain a lot of calcium, and a very small part of organic biological tissues can control their own opening and closing. It seems that there is no other information to be found on it. But I heard from Huang Yu that you have found a very fast black creature inside it. ”

"No, it's not the discovery, it's the black creature that came out and wanted to attack us." Ma Qian remembered what happened last night, "It will burrow into people's bodies and then make people crazy." Attack others like crazy and have a huge boost in strength and speed. ”

"So, can the person who was invaded by the creatures bring it?" Zhongli Gray seemed to be excited to hear about these strange creatures, and her eyes could be seen glowing through her glasses.

Ma Gan shook his head: "No, he is already a ball of ashes." Zhongli Gray showed a disappointed expression on his face: "Whether it's a black creature or someone who has been attacked by a creature, as long as you bring it over, it may be of great help to your research." So we have to make a promise: if you meet it next time, you must bring it over, whether it is alive or dead. ”

"Actually, I don't want to meet that fly-like creature again." Ma Qian straightened up, "But next time, if I have a chance to meet and catch it, I will send it over." "Okay, you must remember to bring it." Zhong Li Gray obviously cares a lot about this agreement.

Ma Long and Huang Yu left the special disposal room, walked through the corridor, and walked to the door of the office. Ma Gan said in a regretful tone: "I'm sorry, I didn't get what you wanted." After reading the test results, I was even more confused. ”

Huang Yu also seemed to ask him with a little regret: "So what are you going to do next?" Ma Gan opened the car door and turned to answer him: "I plan to continue to investigate the Blue Shadow Star who stole the water from the Kad Spring, and now he may be the known, alive, and most closely related creature to this incident." ”

"Then I'll continue to investigate the cause of the loss of the internal organs of those astronauts." Huang Yu clenched his fists and said. Ma Gan looked at Huang Yu and felt a little unreliable, but now there was no way, got in the car, and quickly drove to the place where his next plan was implemented.

"Hello, can you help find out which ward Wu Chen is in?" The hospital staff looked up and saw that the man who was asking him was a man about 50 years old with a stubble on his face, a somewhat haggard face, and a little anxious.

"Who are you?" "I am his father, and my name is Wu Guang." "Oh, he's in ward 308." Wu Guang quickly climbed up the stairs, he usually likes to take one step at a time, but today he went up two steps with each step.

When he entered the door, he saw his son lying on a white hospital bed, his eyes closed, apparently still unconscious. "Hey, why, why are you so careless? Maybe, maybe I should have really insisted a little more and didn't let you do this business......" Wu Guang gently approached the hospital bed, and while looking at Wu Chen, he whispered.

"Hello, are you Wu Guang?" Wu Chen looked back, and there was a young man about 25 years old at the door asking him. "I'm Wu Guang, are you?" "I'm Li Xing, the same one you saved me at the space base a few days ago. I'm in the next room, I just saw you coming at the door, I feel very similar to the mecha pilot in the TV report, I guessed it was you, so I ......"

Li Xing was talking, when he saw Wu Guang listening absentmindedly, nodding occasionally, and making a hmm-humm-hmming sound from time to time in his mouth, expressing his response in a very perfunctory way. When he saw his brother lying on the hospital bed, he immediately understood what was going on.

"Your son's life is not in any danger anymore, and the reason why he is still in a coma may be due to fatigue. You can understand that he is too tired and still sleeping. "Oh, really?" "That's right, I still have a certain understanding of the mechanism of the human body." "In this way, he is indeed very tired these days." Wu Guang was more like he was comforting himself.

"Hey, I'm going to buy some fruit, he probably hasn't had much nutrition these days." "He does need to supplement some nutrients, but don't buy peaches or apricots or anything like that, it will cause him ......" Li Xing didn't finish speaking. Wu Guang walked out of the ward quickly. After about five or six minutes, he came back with a large pile of fruit.

"If he wakes up, you can help me remind him to eat these things. I have important things to do and have to go first. Wu Guang didn't seem to want to go, but he seemed to be tied to a lot of things by some invisible rope and dragged out of the ward.

"Ah, I want to thank you for saving your life." Li Xing wanted to go out and have a good chat with this benefactor. "I don't need to say thank you or something, if you can, help me take care of my son." In this way, Wu Guang disappeared at the end of the corridor.

"It's a small number of critical voices, plus the injury of his own son. Did he become dissatisfied with his job? Li Xing looked at the wall at the end of the corridor and thought about what his benefactor was thinking at this moment.
