Chapter 13: The Monster Hunts
[[[cp|w:250|h:190|a:c]]] Monster Hunting
After three days of fierce online competition, in the end, Shen Mingke, president of the UFO Research Association, Jupiter Yun, a reporter for science fiction magazine, and Lan Xingyi, a third-year graduate student of the School of Humanities, won the opportunity to go into the mountains with the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics to eliminate blood-sucking monsters. www.biquge.info After receiving the call, Lan Xingyi rushed into the headquarters of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.
"Director Wang, we met again, thank you so much last time!" Lan Xingyi said very politely.
"Haha, it's all a trivial matter, it should be!" Wang Longqian brought Lan Xingyi into the conference room with a nonchalant look, and several people who were acting together had almost arrived. Among them were three volunteers, Shen Mingke, Jupiter Cloud, and Lan Xingyi; two advisors, Zhou Zhengtian and Mei Lin; The rest are people from within the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, Wang Longqian, Wei Dongbiao, SWAT Captain Li Shiliang and Forensic Doctor Zhong Shenxiu.
"Hi, Professor Zhou!" Lan Xingyi greeted warmly.
"Xingyi, I heard that you used my reputation and prestige when you competed for this opportunity this time!" Zhou Zhengtian said with a smile.
"Yes, haven't you heard of the principle of being a teacher for one day and a father for life, why, you want to expel me from the teacher!" Lan Xingyi made a cute appearance in front of Zhou Zhengtian.
"Since you are a teacher for one day and a father for life, then you can call me Dad!" Zhou Zhengtian joked.
"Yes, Daddy!" Lan Xingyi was not shy about it, and everyone burst into laughter, making Zhou Zhengtian a little embarrassed.
"Yo yo yo, this female graduate student has a very serious tendency to love her father!" Merlin said sourly behind her.
"Yes, Professor Mei, I don't know how old you have to be to have this inclination!"
"You say I'm old, don't you?" Mei Lin changed her face and asked, Zhou Zhengtian hurriedly stopped her: "Oh, Professor Mei, what are you doing with these children, just make a joke!" Mei Lin didn't say anything, Lan Xingyi also shut up, enjoying the excitement of this upcoming adventure, and soon everyone arrived. Wang Longqian opened his mouth and said: "Consultants, as well as volunteers, tomorrow we decided to go into the mountains to clear the blood-sucking monsters, today I will talk about the precautions, after the meeting, everyone will register their height and weight here, we will equip everyone with military uniforms, tomorrow you don't have to bring anything, we will prepare dry food and water, tomorrow at seven o'clock to the headquarters to gather, don't be late!" After that, everyone went back.
Early the next morning, Zhou Zhengtian came to the headquarters of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, and there was an open-top police car and a tightly packed truck wrapped in canvas parked at the door.
"Yo, Professor Zhou, it's so early!" Wang Longqian also came.
"yes, I'm still looking forward to this operation!" Zhou Zhengtian pretended to be emotional.
"Come on, I know you can't sleep because of insomnia!" Wang Longqian was unceremonious.
"Haha" Zhou Zhengtian smiled bitterly.
"Professor Zhou, I'll sit next to you!" Lan Xingyi stood in front of Zhou Zhengtian in a well-fitting camouflage uniform and said with a smile.
"Well, sit down!" Although Zhou Zhengtian was still angry about Wang Longqian's words yesterday, and he didn't want to hurt the innocent Lan Xingyi, he didn't object. After a while, everyone was almost there, but Mei Lin didn't arrive. Wang Longqian asked everyone to change into military uniforms, and at this time, Mei Lin rushed over with a graduate student, Hu Zhiguang, who helped her hold her things, and everyone set off neatly.
"Professor Zhou, when we are divided into groups for a while, let's go in groups of two!" Lan Xingyi leaned into Zhou Zhengtian's ear and said.
"Grouping? What kind of group? Zhou Zhengtian asked puzzled.
"Let's go deep into the mountains to find unknown vampire monsters, the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics will definitely not let the expedition team members act alone, it must be in a group of two!" Lan Xingyi said with great certainty.
"You're thinking long-term!" Zhou Zhengtian said with a smile.
"To answer my question, can we work in pairs?" Lan Xingyi pleaded.
"Okay, I'll be in a group with you if the conditions allow!"
"Good" Lan Xingyi happily enjoyed the beautiful scenery outside the window all the way. Soon the car drove to Yishui Town, Wang Longqian first greeted Song Pengbiao, the head of the Yishui Town Police Station, and drove the car to the mountain forest near Song Jinbox's house. Everyone got out of the car, Wang Longqian ripped off the canvas of the truck, and took out a domestic Type 95 automatic rifle from it, and there was a commotion in the crowd, not only three volunteers, but even senior consultants like Zhou Zhengtian and Mei Lin were very excited. Throughout human history, from ancient times to modern society, weapons have played a vital role in human survival, whether it is combat, hunting, law enforcement or self-defense, sophisticated weapons can effectively stimulate human excitatory nerves.
Wang Longqian saw that everyone was staring at the robbery in his hand, and he smiled calmly: "Don't get me wrong, this is not a domestic Type 95 automatic rifle, and we don't have the right to equip you with such a lethal weapon, in case some of you use it to commit murder, we can't afford it!" ”
"Ahh
"Is it a plastic prop for me to hold and scare that vampire monster? It probably won't buy it, in case it hasn't seen it! Shen Mingke said half-jokingly.
"Chairman Shin misunderstood, this is not a plastic prop! This is a stun gun developed by our army, which integrates a variety of advanced technologies, which can not only defend closely, but also hit objects at a distance of 3 to 7 meters, which is faster than a gun! It is currently the most advanced self-defense weapon in the world, which can block and destroy the transmission of brain waves that destroy people, penetrate clothing and discharge to make it lose its ability to resist, and the maximum discharge can make a creature within 20 tons coma for more than 10 minutes without damaging the characteristics of life! Wang Longqian said the same thing as a salesman. Then he unloaded the magazine. "This is not a magazine, it is a rechargeable battery for a stun gun, which is quite heavy! This sight is not an ordinary sight either! He pointed to the gun's scope again. Rather, it is an electronic scanner, which can intelligently discharge according to the distance and size of the creature, ensuring that it does not cause fatal harm to the creature! When you use it, you can pull the trigger lightly, and the infrared laser sight will quickly locate it, and the position where the small red dot shines is the position of the discharge, and then pull the trigger hard, no matter what blood-sucking monster will lose the ability to resist in an instant! Now I'll show you! Wang Longqian held the gun in both hands, stood up straight, tilted his head, and after aiming at a tree twenty meters away, he pulled the trigger sharply, and a blue arc rushed out seven or eight meters away, and disappeared in an instant.
There was a round of applause from the "good" crowd.
"Okay, one for each person, choose by yourself, and pay attention to check whether the power is sufficient through the electronic display screen. There are body armor and helmets in the truck, as well as walkie-talkies, compasses, water bottles and bags of dry food, one set per person, even if there is no progress in the search for monsters today, the protection work cannot be sloppy! ”
As soon as Wang Longqian finished speaking, a few young people ran to the truck, and soon everyone was ready. Wang Longqian spoke: "This time to find a monster, there will be a certain danger, that monster is a bloodsucking for a living, and there is a dense mountain and forest in this Taihang area, it is difficult to say what poisonous insects and beasts are hidden in it, everyone must pay attention to their own safety, and do not harm the animals, let alone leave any fire." For the sake of safety, we are in a group of two people, and we have a care for each other, and now everyone is free to form a team, and I will adjust the unreasonable places! ”
"Professor Zhou, let's work in a team of two!" As soon as Wang Long's words fell, Mei Lin ran to Zhou Zhengtian and pleaded, her helmet was covered with her coiled hair, her military uniform was tightly tied, and she was holding the stun gun with some weight in both hands like a little girl.
"This..." he looked at Lan Xingyi hesitantly, and Lan Xingyi also glanced at Zhou Zhengtian. The graduate student brought by Mei Lin came over and said, "Lan Xingyi, let's go in a team of two!" ”
"This..."
"No, you two can't be in a team!" Wang Longqian spoke. "You two college students, untrained, have to be paired with our investigators! Hu Zhiguang, you and Director Wei Dongbiao are in a group, and Lan Xingyi is in a group with me! ”
"Okay?" Mei Lin pushed Zhou Zhengtian coquettishly.
"Good, Professor May!" In this way, everyone was divided into groups, Mu Chengxing and SWAT captain Li Shiliang in a group, Shen Mingke and forensic doctor Zhong Shenxiu in a group.
"There's an alarm on that walkie-talkie, remember to call the police if you find anything, gather here after dark!" Wang Longqian reminded. "Alright, let's go!"
Everyone looked for the monster footprints that Mei Lin found on the side of the road before and advanced to the depths of Taihang Mountain in several ways, although the mountain is not particularly steep, but there is no road, the mountain is overgrown with weeds, shrubs are forested, and in some places the weeds are more than one person high, and there is no trace of people after entering. Although the weather is getting cooler, it is still relatively hot to wear thick camouflage uniforms, and then put on body armor, and after a while, everyone will be sweating and marching at a full speed. When it was close to noon, the expedition team still found nothing, so they had to sit on a big rock for lunch. Lan Xingyi opened the dry food bag provided by the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, which contained a meal in a crisper box, and two eggs sealed with plastic wrap next to it. After a morning of running, Lan Xingyi was indeed hungry, she opened the lunch box and chewed without hesitation. Wang Longqian looked at Lan Xingyi carefully: the tall figure is very coordinated in action, eating and drinking water is no different from humans, after a morning of action, fine sweat is oozing on his forehead, his fair face is flushed, his heart is beating violently after a long journey, and his chest is lying together. Slowly, he had doubts in his heart: How could this girl be an alien, would she really be different from humans as Feng Wenjing said, but the surveillance video she provided when she touched porcelain was really suspicious.
"Director Wang, what's wrong with you?" Lan Xingyi looked at Wang Lung looking at him intently, and couldn't help asking.
"Ah, it's fine!" Wang Longqian came back to his senses at this time.
"Didn't I scare you when I was eating!"
"Haha, I've really never seen a girl gobble up like this!" Wang Lung said with a smile.
"Haha, I'm so hungry!"
"Hmm," Wang Longqian nodded. "Eh, Xingyi, you college students, do you have some creative thinking, for example, can you think of any good way to find that mysterious vampire monster?"
"Ha, you can afford us, but I've thought of some other way, which is to create a kind of vampire monster sound to lure the monster in. But if it's an alien monster, hah, then if we knew its own kind of voice, we wouldn't have to look for it anymore! ”
"Well, that's right!" After eating, the two of them continued to search. Until the sun was in the west, no one sounded the alarm, and there was a dead silence in the valley, and the few bird calls from time to time were really heard. The sun hanging obliquely on the mountainside quietly fell, and there was a gust of white-haired wind blowing in the valley, which quickly dried up the sweat, and the weeds that were more than one person tall also fluctuated with the wind, as if thousands of fierce beasts were running wild all over the mountain, and the sight was greatly obstructed, and every member of the team was vigilant against the poisonous snakes and beasts that came out of the weeds at any time.
Mei Lin and Zhou Zhengtian's situation was similar to that of Wang Longqian, and they searched for a day but found nothing. Despite her strong enthusiasm, Merlin was too tired to do so, and she hurried a few steps to find a place to rest. After searching for a long time, I found a clearing under the weedy cliff, there was a large stone in the center of the clearing, the sand around the stone was very barren, there was not a few grasses, and the ground was bare and soft.
"What the hell is this place, you can't even see a bird, and what kind of monsters!" Merlin sat on the stone and complained.
"Well, yes, no, let's go back, right?" Zhou Zhengtian also sat on the stone and asked Mei Lin in a consultative tone, but Mei Lin did not answer after a long time. "What are your nerves?" Zhou Zhengtian turned his head and asked, only to find that Mei Lin's eyes were staring straight at a piece of sand on the ground in a daze, with a look of fear on her face.
"What's wrong, Professor May!" Zhou Zhengtian hurriedly turned around.
"Professor Zhou, look!" Merlin said, pointing to a few clear footprints on the ground.
"Oops, isn't it just a few footprints? Haven't we seen it in the mountains and forests at the door of Song Jinbox's house? Zhou Zhengtian said calmly.
"No, I've got to take a good look!" After saying that, Mei Lin followed the footprints and looked in the direction of the cliff, Zhou Zhengtian shook his head at her back, still sitting still, he was really tired.
"Ahh
"What's wrong?" Zhou Zhengtian jumped up from the big stone and asked nervously, but did not hear an answer. He quickly picked up his stun gun, leaned over to the grass. Through the sparse weeds, Zhou Zhengtian saw Mei Lin sitting on the ground, and a strange blood-red animal in the middle of the grass opposite was smiling at Mei Lin with its mouth open, and a large piece of grass under her body was overwhelmed. Zhou Zhengtian immediately raised his stun gun and aimed it at the monster, but the monster did not react, and it did not move for a long time, and Zhou Zhengtian was sure that it was dead. He hung up his gun, wiped the cold sweat from his sideburns, and walked over to Lamelin: "Professor May, are you okay?" ”
"Hmm" Merlin sat on the ground speechless in fright, and nodded with a blank look for a long time. Zhou Zhengtian had a chance to see the face of the monster clearly, less than one meter tall, with two round eyes the size of eggs that seemed to be dead, two protruding fangs on the mouth, spikes of various colors from the neck to the back, skin like a bat, a body shaped like a kangaroo, with very developed hind limbs, a long tail on the back, and a weight of about 30 to 35 kilograms.
"Call the police to Director Wang!" Merlin slowly regained her composure.
"Hmm" Zhou Zhengtian nodded, pressed the walkie-talkie, and the sharp alarm quickly spread throughout the valley, the calm mountains suddenly became lively, and the frightened birds rose into the air, one by one, in groups, chirping in the sky above the valley, and the goats in the valley were also frightened and ran away. Zhou Zhengtian picked up the walkie-talkie: "Director Wang, we have found the corpse of an unknown animal under the cliff in the north of the valley!" ”
"Okay, let's go over right away!"
After Lan Xingyi heard the alarm, he ran quickly towards the place of the incident with a stun gun, Wang Longqian followed, and after a while, Wang Longqian was pulled away from him, he tried his best to follow the monster corpse at the bottom of the cliff from a distance, and soon several other roads also arrived, this blood-squirming monster that had made the police station chief and the nearby people brain-broken for the first time exposed his body to the public.
"Forensic Doctor Zhong, do you need to keep the scene?" Wang Longqian asked.
"No need, since the corpses have been obtained, then the truth is revealed, there is no need to think about the modus operandi and motive of the vampire monster!" Zhong Shenxiu said with a smile.
"Well, what do you think?" Wang Longqian asked three more volunteers.
"Well, I'm okay with that!" Shen Mingke said very generously, and Jupiter Cloud and Lan Xingyi did not object.
"Okay, since you have no opinion, Director Wei, immediately contact Director Song Pengbiao and ask him to gather people to send this corpse down the mountain! I did him such a great favor today! ”
"Well, okay!" Wei Dongbiao agreed to go down the mountain.
"Captain Li, you look at the corpse here for a while, and then go down the mountain with the policeman who transported the corpse! Scared? ”
"Cut, what am I afraid of!" Li Shiliang agreed easily.
"Okay, others, go down the mountain!" Wang Longqian and the other members of the expedition dragged their tired bodies and stumbled down the mountain, although everyone was very tired, but they were all very happy, this trip was still fruitful, not only to eliminate harm for the people, but also to catch the legendary vampire monster, all triumphantly taking heavy steps. When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, the police station chiefs Song Pengbiao and Yan Tianguang had already arrived, as well as Song Jinbox and a few nearby villagers, who were carrying a makeshift stretcher and walking up the mountain. Song Jinbox immediately walked over as soon as he saw Mei Lin: "Professor Mei, thank you so much!" Ever since you made us install the thief's light bulb, that vampire monster hasn't hurt my flock again! ”
"Well, I saved you, but I killed it!" Merlin said with some regret.
"What do you mean?" Song Jinbox is a little incomprehensible.
"It's okay, you can go up the mountain quickly!"
Back at the station, Wang Long dived the stun gun in everyone's hands to let everyone rest on the spot, although he was in a happy mood just after coming down the mountain, it was still very physical, and he was sweating. The evening in the mountains gradually cooled down, and the breeze blew cold, and no one was willing to take off their helmets and body armor.
The local villagers walked the mountain road very authentically, and it didn't take long for several villagers to carry the corpse of the vampire monster to the foot of the mountain, Wang Longqian asked them to put the monster corpse on the truck, and the team members refused to take off their helmets and body armor to make a lot of room for the corpse.
Song Pengbiao and several villagers thanked Director Wang, and everyone took the car to the capital. After dark, the two cars stopped at the entrance of the headquarters of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, and Wang Longqian asked everyone to help move the monster's corpse to the underground freezer.
"Director Wang, what should I do with this set of equipment?" Shen Mingke asked, pointing to his outfit.
"I'll keep it for you as a memento!" Wang Longqian waved his hand very generously.
"Okay, thank you, Director Wang!" Lan Xingyi happily walked out of the door of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, she didn't know that from this moment on, her every move was monitored by Wang Longqian!
