No. 7 and Wang Zhengqing didn't react to what I just said, Wang Zhengqing may be better, he knows what kind of person I am, when I chatted last night, I had already shown dissatisfaction with the mechanism of the spirit case team's oath, in fact, it was also a vaccination for him.

But No. 7 belongs to the completion without turning a corner, and in his impression, I should belong to the kind of person who really wants to join the spirit team.

So my refusal blinded him, and after I finished speaking, he asked me in some disbelief, "What did you say?" ”

"I said I refused to join, if you want me to be more tactful, then I can change it, we are just cooperating for the time being, and I will give you an answer after I think about it again."

My words made Wang Zhengqing next to him not hold back his laughter, and No. 7 even said to me: "Zhang Yao, you have to think about it carefully, the headquarters has never made an exception to recruit people like this, and now ......"

"No need."

I rejected other offers and said, "I've thought about it very clearly, for the time being, I don't have any interest in joining the spirit team, but I'm still very interested in this case, so if you have the intention of cooperating, I don't mind cooperating." ”

"Don't mind, of course not." No. 7 hurriedly said: "Yesterday, the headquarters sent two more language additions, responsible for deciphering the runes, and a few spell masters, giving their opinions, yesterday before the ancient master left, he specially explained that he talked to you about the runes of Tianquan, and thought that you can unlock the secrets, so now the eyes are staring at you." ”

No. 7's sentence is undoubtedly a confirmation that the change in the attitude of the headquarters is related to the ancient one, I want to thank the ancient one, but I don't want to be recruited by an exception because of someone else's words, I want to prove myself through my own strength.

After all, there is a sentence that is good for what kind of thing, and what kind of way you get it will be lost in what way, and the current spirit case team will make an exception to recruit me because of a long sentence from the old one, and then it will also kick me out because of someone else's words.

This world is so cruel, there is no fairness at all, if you want to be stable enough, you have to have hard power.

But No. 7's words also revealed another thing, that is, the Ancient One wanted me to help the Spirit Case Team unlock the secrets of these runes.

He knows this bit of bloodline, so he should also know that for me, understanding and not understanding these runes is just a matter of looking at it.

Then this is very strange, yesterday he hoped that I would not be involved, why did he suddenly change his mind, on the one hand, he wanted me to join the spirit team, and on the other hand, he wanted me to help them unlock the secrets of the runes?

This old guy's thinking is really incomprehensible, I didn't think much about it, and said directly: "Okay, I'll do my best, but this set of runes used by Tianquan is extremely logical, and it doesn't take time to crack it well." ”

Number 7 shook his head and said that it doesn't matter, the stone statue has been destroyed yesterday, so the next focus is on cracking this set of runes, their field team will go out again to collect evidence, and at this time, there are also stone statues from other places will be transported.

"Stone statues from other places?"

I was stunned for a moment, but No. 7 nodded and said, "What?" Is there any problem, didn't you say before that similar altars have been found almost all over the country? So a lot of stone statues were confiscated, and after learning that the stone statues on our side were damaged, the headquarters transported two from another city, and it is estimated that they will arrive tonight. ”

After knowing that there would be new stone statues being transported, I became interested again, maybe this was an opportunity to get up close and personal with the stone statues, I hadn't thought about this aspect before, so naturally I ignored this, and maybe I could find other clues from the stone statues tonight.

So I immediately demanded that after the stone statue was transported, I should study it alone for a while, preferably without being disturbed by outsiders.

"Alone?"

"Yes." I nodded: "Don't give me a small room in that big area of your basement, it's better not to have surveillance, I'll tell you if there's a clue, but I don't like people spying on me." ”

I don't know how much authority the headquarters gave me, but at least this thing is still very easy to do, although No. 7 felt strange, but after thinking about it for a while, he nodded and agreed.

"Okay, just as you say." He continued: "After the stone statues are transported, I will arrange them in a small room and give you time to contact them, but I still have to ask more, does this have anything to do with cracking their linguistic logic?" ”

I nodded and said yes, of course.

Hearing me say this, General 7 nodded suspiciously, and then the topic was over, he probably didn't know much about runes, so the two of us couldn't communicate too deeply.

But before taking us to the underground laboratory, he still asked me to think about joining the spirit team, and told me that he was only responsible for conveying the opinions of the headquarters, and that I still had time to regret it before he reported it to the headquarters.

But I didn't take it seriously at all, now they are begging me to join, if I am really valuable, then they will beg me in the future, I don't have to rush this time, not to mention that now whether I join or not, the authority I recognize will be the same, I don't know what I said before I left, so it brings me so much convenience.

But that's not the point, it's about their research on the activation of stone statues.

But unfortunately, after coming to the basement, we didn't see anything that could make people shine, basically all the data and videos like yesterday, and some of the transcripts of their agents, and told me that these transcripts had been polygraphed before they were made, and the accuracy rate was very high.

But I pondered with Wang Zhengqing for a long time, and still didn't get more detailed clues from this, I asked them what they were studying these days, it was impossible to keep sweeping around the stone statue, right?

No. 7 shook his head and told us that because this stronghold had been established for a relatively short time, the stone statue had not yet been cut and dissected, that is, cut, as long as it was mainly protected first, but another laboratory with more advanced facilities had cut the school, but nothing was found in it, and even a composition analysis was done and found that the raw materials for these realizations were ordinary stones.

There were even some carbon-based tests, which also did not yield any results, no matter what the tests were, and in the end it turned out that the stone statue was carved from ordinary stone, without any special ingredients, except for the pigment on the surface of the stone statue.

"What happened to the paint on the surface of the statue?" I hurriedly asked, because I still had some impression of the paint on the surface of the stone statue, which was very red, like blood and not ordinary red paint.

No. 7 came to a computer, called up a piece of information, looked at it and said to us: "Look, it's all on this information, the test results show that the pigments are human blood, and our experimenters immediately did DNA testing on the components collected from these blood, but when we compare the database, we found that there is no match, and even found that this is not human DNA at all." ”

"Not human DNA?" I was shocked.

On the one hand, it is indeed surprising that this thing is true, and on the other hand, I have a bad idea in my heart, and I am ready to find a way to verify it.

On the other side, No. 7 nodded and said: "Yes, it's not human DNA, but after comparing it with the database, I didn't find out what kind of creature this DNA matched, but there was a feeling of four dissimilarities, I don't understand this aspect, but listening to our researchers, it's just like a little bit of everything, but it's not like anything." ”

Wang Zhengqing and I exchanged glances, and then he asked, "Could this not be human blood at all?" Just some kind of mixed liquid? ”

Obviously, none of the three of us knew much about this, and Number 7 shook his head and said that he didn't understand this, and that if we had any doubts, it would be better to ask the professionals, and pointed us in the direction that there was an area in this room that also told us which area it was.

We didn't ask in the end, on the one hand, there was nothing worth investigating for the time being, and I needed to verify it myself.

There was no progress that day, because the six stone statues here were really damaged, so the research work was terminated, and it would not continue until the new stone statues were used in the evening.

And the language expert they assigned has not yet arrived today, so Wang Zhengqing and I have nothing to do, except for calling the old dog to tell him that he has been removed from the wanted list within the case filing team, we almost did nothing, only drinking tea and resting in the small tearoom outside.

On the old dog's side, although he knew that he had been notified of the cancellation, a big stone in his heart finally fell, but whether it was me or I knew better, it was possible to be added after the cancellation now, he was a hurt feeling, so he may question the decision of the spirit case team in the future.

This point, Lao Gou and Wang Zhengqing are extremely clear, because they have already been injured by the organization once.

In order to make a little contribution, I still told No. 7 the clue of the Big Dipper, and asked him to report to the headquarters according to this clue, and check whether there are similar sites for altar cases found in other areas, and if so, be sure to tell me, which is very important.

Obviously, on the 7th, they didn't notice this at all before, and after I pointed it out, they were ecstatic to find that these 7 coordinate points really matched the Big Dipper.

This is just a small sweetness, the clues I currently have in my hands are enough for them to study for a while, I don't know why, the spirit team is suddenly not so mysterious in my eyes, they have become an ordinary organization, in fact, the authority is a little higher, the resources that can be mobilized are a little more, and the name is a little more mysterious.
