The smart car automatically stopped, and the two got out of the car.

Tau Zhu was armed with a short spear in his hand, his knees bent, and he cautiously approached the bushes that Joshua had found.

Vika was still an intern, and she didn't have a gun, so she only had a baton in her hand.

At this time, the sky is already a little dark,

When I walked in, I found that the bottom of these plants was still wrapped in plastic film.

Tau Zhu made a gesture for Vika to flank from the side, and he himself carefully tried to remove the piles of greenery.

A slender black shadow swooped out of the plant.

"Be careful!" Vika was quick with one eye, threw the baton in his hand, and knocked Tao Zhu down.

"What's that?" Vika carefully pulled Taurju up.

"Rhubarb, lighting." Tao Zhu said.

The hard-working seat robot came running over with a click.

Turn on Christmas Tree Mode.

[Vampire vine! Tao Zhu's expression froze, and he pulled Vika back a few steps, and then released the bean soldiers.

A few bean soldiers violently ripped the bush apart.

The man inside was revealed.

"Officer Francis." Tao Zhu recognized this person, immediately threw out a few guns, and ordered, "Destroy those vampire vines!" ”

Beans were given the order and picked up the gun and struck a few shots at the stake behind Officer Francis, cutting off the vines from the main trunk.

Francis grabbed him before he fell to the ground and threw him into the cryo-dormant pod like a courier package.

One of the remaining bean soldiers pulled up the main trunk of the vampire vine at once.

Wasn't that the stick that fixed Bernie and Bolton at the time?

"Vampire vines were discovered....... We need an ambulance. "Tao Zhu has already finished making the phone call.

"Joshua!" Vika suddenly remembered the other team, and she immediately called Joshua's terminal, "We found a missing police officer in a pile of bushes, he was hidden by small ornamental plants, but most importantly, he has vampire vines on him!" Never use your hands to dial it! ”

After saying everything, Vika hurriedly said to Tao Zhu: "Boss, if this is the main trunk of the vampire vine, wouldn't it be ........ the two fixed corpses that the Forensic Identification Department retrieved last time?"

"After the vampire vine has absorbed the nutrients in the host's body fluid, it will go into dormancy and give birth to seeds. As long as there is no bloodshed, they will not be awakened. Tao Zhu said, still sending a message on the terminal.

The boss is cold-faced and soft-hearted. Vika snickered

The vampire vine of Weipaxing is a very rare small parasitic plant that likes to attach itself to large animals and suck blood. Moreover, while sucking, it likes to return its saliva along with a portion of the plasma to its prey. to play the role of anesthetizing prey.

The ambulance came,

After a while, Julian and the others also came to the news.

Their gains were even greater, and they caught the kidnappers directly.

Joshua sends a video of the kidnapper's arrest. Sure enough, consistent with the profile, it was a white young man in his 20s, dignified and upright.

He was wearing electronic handcuffs, smiling, and even raised his hand to greet the reporters who arrived as they arrived.

It's like he's a hero who has returned triumphantly.

……

The suspect's name is Hogan. Marcy, is a postman in the Vogues community.

"Isn't it all robotic delivery now?"

"Parents in the Vogus community complained that the robot delivery man was always missing a piece, so the post office had to find a human who was willing to work part-time as a postman." "He also works part-time as an electrician, a painter, a plumber, a network maintenance, a gardener, a movers...... It's almost anything. ”

"So he is familiar with every resident of Vogues," he said. ”

Braden nodded: "I asked a few of the children who were put back, and they all confirmed that it was Hogan. Marcy kidnapped herself. ”

Vika asked, "And what about his motives?" Is it dissatisfaction in the process of work? ”

"He was open about his motives and his actions," Julian said. Residents of the Vogues community spoke ill of him, often defaulted on service fees, and after he refused to serve, he repeatedly called the company to complain. It's ........"

If you don't do it, you won't die.

Vika asked, "But why did he put the victim in that repentant pose?" ”

Julian replied, "He said he had always had a crush on Rika and found those videos while repairing his home console. ”

Vika understood: "That's his trigger point. ”

Tauju turned to the Alessandra group and asked, "Edgar. What did Milton say? ”

"Originally, he was convinced that he killed the person, and he was ready to sit in prison." Alexandra was a little proud: "But it's good to have Ethan." ”

Ethan smiled embarrassedly: "I just told the truth, Conrad and Dinah are long-lost siblings, DNA can't lie." ”

"Dinah is the co-wife of the Milton brothers, and besides, the men of the Milton family seem to love her, so they desperately go to the asteroid people to keep her alive." "In order to keep Dinah out of the way, Edgar told me that the asteroid man's body was left at the door of their warehouse, along with the crude life-support apparatus. There was a message on it, stating how to use it and stating that it would allow Dinah, who was already dying, to live a few more months. In addition, the other party also demanded that once the body fails, it must be destroyed immediately. ”

After the body fails, the children bring Conrad back to be buried, but Edgar says he found the asteroid man alive. So I thought about using the waste, maybe I could let Dinah live a little longer. ”

Edgar took all the sins alone.

But apparently, the men in Milton are in the know.

However, assuming Conrad drops the charge, and the body is a gift from a mysterious person, then Edgar is likely to be acquitted.

In fact, Conrad has said he would spare the Miltons. After all, they are their own brothers-in-law. Alessandra pulled out a clear evidence bag with the note inside, "So my promise is kept." ”

"There's no brain in that dry corpse." Ethan said.

Alexandra nodded: "Tom. Rich had also called his family a few days earlier and had made a phone call. So, presumably an illegal cloned asteroid human body. ”

In this way, Edgar's murder is not established. The kidnapping injury was stopped because the victim withdrew the complaint.

The only problem with the Milton family at the moment is Dinah's condition.

And this problem may also be solved.

Conrad appears to have received a grant sufficient to cover his wife's and sister's medical bills.

Vika thought to himself, this is probably, the so-called good people have good rewards.

.........

Two policemen did not survive. Vampire vine's anesthetic fluid contained deadly microorganisms, and by the time they arrived at the hospital, they had died of cerebral edema.

The Webber Vampire Vine is to be kept under control as a Level 3 hazard.

This is the end of the uproar about the disappearance of children in the Vogues community.

Hogan. Marcy was charged with murder, kidnapping, illegal carrying of dangerous goods, and other charges, especially involving the murder of minors and police officers, with particularly bad implications.
