"Bai Lan, I have a very interesting case here, do you want to go and see it together?" Chen Hongming's cigarette spit out and pounced on Bai Lan's face.

"Put out the cigarette for me first. I said why are you so damaged, Qianzhu just asked me to quit smoking, and you ran in front of me every once in a while to swallow the clouds and spit out the fog. Okay, you! Bai Lan directly turned up the wind power of the air conditioner.

"Hey, how can you quit smoking without some perseverance? It's to see if others smoke too much, and you can still hold back, you can only give the fuck to quit smoking, I'm helping you dog. "Since Chen Hongming was taken by Bai Lan and got better at this, there is nothing immortal that can make him put down this little pipe. Anyway, he is very self-conscious, and he thinks that he will not have a wife if he looks crooked and cracked, so he doesn't care about his mother.

Chen Hongming directly passed the case filing report to Bai Lan. Bai Lan clicked it away.

"Burglary? Or is it likely that the apostles did it? Like Chen Hongming's reaction, Bai Lan was also surprised.

"Then let's go check it out!"

…

Luo Wei doesn't like to enter Ai Shuyin's house. Because Ai Shuyin's parents are also away from home for a long time, and his younger brother is still young, Ai Shuyin is very messy at home - from the living room to the bedroom, and even to the bathroom, her home is all pink and tender by her. Puppets, pink wallpaper, and a girly sofa – it makes Luo Wei feel uncomfortable. But there is no way today, in order not to destroy the scene, until the arrival of the IBDC, he can only stay here.

As Rowe waited, Rowe received news that the IBDC had accepted the case and would arrive at his home in three minutes.

…

This was the second time Luo Wei had seen Bai Lan, the last time, not long after the assassination in the Silver Realm, he had only seen Bai Lan from a distance. But the last time Rowe saw him briefly, Rowe was very impressed with him, especially the pair of eyes that seemed to be forever thinking and could penetrate everything.

The little tail Luo Yanyan stuck behind Luo Wei, her eyes rolling, and she looked at Bai Lan curiously.

Luo Wei is half a head shorter than Bai Lan, and in Bai Lan's eyes, Luo Wei is only a teenager. Therefore, even Bai Lan, who was not very good at social skills, said in a softer tone than usual, "Classmate Luo Wei, are you a student of the Silver Realm Apostle Academy?" ”

"Yes."

Bai Lan, who was confirmed again, let out a soft "oh" and asked again, "Your school, are there any changes now?" Administrative. ”

Luo Wei was stunned, but he didn't expect Bai Lan to ask about this case, but to ask about it.

"I don't know much about this, but, since Mr. Fuller is gone, someone should replace him." Luo Wei said.

"Well, you know, who are the most likely people to take his place?" Bai Lan asked.

Bai Lan's question, suddenly, also made Luo Wei have some more associations in his mind, he looked at Bai Lan deeply, and asked rhetorically, "Is it related to the assassination of Dean Fuller?" ”

Bai Lan didn't explicitly put forward the connection between the two, but he didn't expect Luo Wei to link the two together so quickly.

"Maybe, but it's always a case idea." Bai Lan didn't want to talk about this issue, he didn't want Luo Wei to let more people in the outside world associate with this aspect. After all, in the absence of conclusive evidence, it is only speculation to appear probable.

"You two stand back, if it's an apostle, maybe you'll leave behind some kind of holy energy that can be triggered for a delay, or something dangerous." Bai Lan asked Luo Wei and the two siblings to step back, and behind him, Chen Hongming had been tinkering with the instrument of the same probe since just now. Behind the probe, Chen Hongming was still carrying a pitch-black box that was not too large.

"It's ready." Chen Hongming nodded at Bai Lan and slowly approached the door of Room 601.

"There are no active Saint Energy fluctuations, but the remnants are large. It's like the [dark] holy energy, but it seems to be different. Chen Hongming walked slowly into the hallway, staring at the flickering parameters on the pitch-black box and the twisting and changing corrugated lines.

However, just as Chen Hongming's words fell, on the black box he was carrying, the corrugated lines twisted violently, like a dancing silver snake!

"Retreat!"

Chen Hongming pushed Bai Lan backwards-

In the center of the living room of the Luo Wei family, a chaotic gray substance suddenly appeared—the substance was spiral-shaped, as if it was like a vortex in the void, causing a huge suction, and then condensed into a stable gray ball—hovering in mid-air—

A piercing chirping sound appeared, and then the sound became more and more shrill, and cracks appeared in the pottery and porcelain of Luo Wei's house. Bai Lan, Chen Hongming, Luo Wei and the others all covered their ears, and their brains were dizzy.

"Boom!" When the tone reached its highest point, the gray ball exploded, and the air wave annihilated all the objects of the Luo Wei family, and a horizontal crack appeared on the wall as if it had been slashed open.

Everywhere in the Rowe apartment building, a piercing alarm sounded. Many residents poked their heads out, looking for the source of the explosion.

"Damn, what a disgusting sound!" Chen Hongming shook his head, he now felt that his mind was in chaos, and the sequelae of continuous tinnitus appeared in both ears, and even his vision became blurred.

Chen Hongming still felt that the final explosion was nothing, after all, he was used to seeing similar ones, and he was also prepared. But the piercing voice seemed to rip out his brain.

Luo Wei turned his back to the door of 601, hugged Luo Yan tightly, and opened the imperial ban, covering her ears tightly. Fortunately, the distance between him and the center of the sound was not as close as Bai Chen and the others, even if he didn't cover his ears, the tinnitus and dizziness were not as serious as Chen Hongming.

…

"The apostle didn't seem to be trying to kill people with gadgets, and the explosion wasn't very powerful. It's more like destroying the crime scene through sound waves and explosions, and covering up its true motive and object. As a veteran investigator of IBDC, Chen Hongming has handled countless cases, and naturally, he can see some things clearly.

Bai Lan nodded, agreeing with Chen Hongming's initial guess.

"But what kind of power is this? That thing is so weird, and the way it explodes is weird, I don't know what it is! Chen Hongming wore gloves and stroked the crack in the wall that was cut open by the explosion of the ash ball.

Bai Lan's microcomputer shows the damage to Luo Wei's house - except for the walls and some small objects that are not very sturdy, the floor and ceiling are only slightly damaged, and they will not cause collapse, etc., and will not be uninhabitable. So, Bai Lan called Luo Wei in and asked him to check the operation records of the housekeeper system.

Luo Wei turned on his microcomputer, saw the display, was stunned, then shook his head, and said: "No, after the sound wave and the explosion, the main control system was all damaged, and the records could not be viewed." "For the sake of privacy, the transfer records of the housekeeping system of each household are generally not transmitted to the company that manufactures the housekeeping system or some government departments. Luo Wei never expected this situation, and he did not turn on the real-time upload backup of the transfer record of the housekeeper system.

Bai Lan nodded, and said: "Then you see, what is missing, look for it slowly, compare it, we are not in a hurry." ”

Luo Wei nodded, and began to look in the living room, bedroom, bathroom, and study.

…

About three or four hours later, it was nearly early in the morning. The lights are on in Luo Wei's house – from a makeshift lamp borrowed from Ai Shuyin's house.

"How?" Bai Lan asked.

Luo Wei thought for a moment and shook his head. There are some things in the family that he is not familiar with, but they belong to his parents Luo Jie, Jade Porcelain, and even to Luo Suyi, the sister-in-law who does not often come to his house. Usually, he doesn't pay much attention to those things. "Some of the things I am familiar with are there, and I don't know what is missing from the unfamiliar things, so I may have to ask my parents."

Bai Lan hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said, "Okay, let's stop here today, you can ask your parents, there is news to tell me, this is my number." Bai Lan's microcomputer holographic projection displayed his local communication number.

"Okay."

…

As soon as Bai Chen's two IBDC investigators left, looking at the devastated home, Luo Wei felt a little helpless and had a headache. Luo Yan had slept in Ai Shuyin's house early, but Luo Wei didn't know where she was sleeping now. It's definitely not okay to sleep at home, and who knows when the ceiling will fall down.

"Forget it, let's go to the hotel later." Luo Wei sighed.

Luo Wei turned on the microcomputer, recorded the scenes from all over the house in the form of holograms, and sent them to his father, Luo Jie, to show his parents what was missing.

Luo Wei packed up his change of clothes and headed for a nearby hotel.

…

Thousands of miles away, in the African wilderness, the remnants of the sun will not fade. Behind a hot boulder, a man and a woman hide their figures in grass and tree costumes, holding miniature "spears and short cannons" of different shapes, facing a lion with a messy mane and a dying breath a hundred meters away.

"This is one of the few wild African lions, and there are probably only a few dozen left in the world, alas." The man of the two sighed. The lion is a social animal, and the wild lion in front of them, after leaving the group, the final fate can be imagined - not finally dying on this wild African grassland; It's dying in a human aid station.

Since the end of the 20th century, "Homo sapiens", a less intelligent species, has been mentioning the concepts of animal protection and ecological diversity. But compared with hunting, relative to the excessive encroachment on animal habitats - the so-called "protection" is after all thunder and rain.

Now, in the second half of the 22nd century, the most effective means of preserving biodiversity is no longer the creation of nature reserves, but the freezing of the eggs of endangered animals.

When wild species are gradually almost extinct under the invisible butcher's knife of human beings to the natural world, human beings can analyze the genetic chain from those sperm eggs; Combined with artificial genes with high resistance and adaptability to the highly toxic environment of the city, the new species that was born in a petri dish and grown in a growth fluid is cloned and transformed into a new species that is not easily poisoned by human urbanization, informatization and technology.

Now those "new species" are active in various "Zoos", in various classical circuses, and even in the tables of human beings with alternative "diversity", and in the homes of collectors who are curious.

And the importance of those endangered wild species is no longer emphasized, and the voices that protect them are becoming smaller and smaller in the entire population of Homo sapiens.

Because, at last, humanity has woken up, and they are the most deadly infectious disease on this planet with blue and gray and black.

"I don't have it". So, why waste your efforts, waste resources, hurt your feelings, and invest in that group of wild species that are not adapted to the "new climate" and "new ice age" and are doomed to extinction?

In another 100 years, perhaps, the only wild species on the earth will be cockroaches, right?
