Boom –

The sudden thunder was deafening, and it also woke the doctor on duty in this special psychiatric hospital from his sleep. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Tsk, it's so late, why hasn't that kid come to take over......" The doctor on duty muttered dissatisfiedly, glanced at the clock, and saw that the hands were pointing to ten o'clock in the evening, and nearly half an hour had already passed from the stipulated evening shift succession time.

However, Cao Cao Cao arrived, and with an apologetic greeting, a drenched young doctor recklessly broke into the duty room.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry...... The sudden rainstorm outside was delayed for a while. The young doctor apologized as he took off his wet coat. You see, I'm so anxious to go out, I forgot to bring an umbrella...... No, it's all drenched. ”

"I said, why do you keep forgetting this...... the doctor on duty shook his head, got up, took out a towel from the cabinet, and threw it to the other party. Looking at you like this, you won't be able to give an injection to a patient for a while, alas...... Come on, I'll help you do it before you go. ”

"Huh? Are you sure? It really helped. The young doctor took the towel and rubbed it on his hair. Not to mention, since the tomb robber who escaped from the ancient tomb came here, he has been shouting about what the hell and zombies are every day, and it is not an easy errand to give him tranquilizers every time...... Alas? But then again, that person is quite quiet today, isn't it the most noisy time every night? ”

"Isn't the stopping point bad? Who can stand it every day. The doctor on duty said, carefully checked a few bottles of medicine, and put them in the medicine basket. I'll go give him an injection first, and you can quickly change your wet clothes......"

Bang...... A soft, muffled sound came from outside the hallway.

"Huh? What sound just now? The young doctor looked up and glanced out at the quiet corridor outside, when a thunderbolt suddenly exploded outside the window.

Boom——!!

The lights in the duty room suddenly disappeared, enveloping the surprised two in darkness.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know...... Tripped?? ”

However, before the two of them could do anything, the lights suddenly turned on one after another, as if the previous incident was just an inconsequential episode.

"Tsk, this place the hell...... That's it, I'll go back after giving the man the injection. The doctor on duty sighed, picked up the medicine basket and hurried out of the duty room, walking towards the special ward at the end of the corridor.

In the middle of the night, there was no one in the hospital, only the constant roar of thunder outside, and the special ward, which usually heard a wail, was unusually quiet at this time.

Are you asleep?

The doctor on duty thought about it, but for no reason he felt a fluster, and every time he approached the ward, the uneasiness in his heart intensified.

Boom——!

The thunder fell again, and a bolt of lightning struck through the window, revealing a shadow through the glass window of the ward.

The doctor on duty stood outside the door of the ward, staring at the feet hanging in the air in the room in a daze, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.

The lonely figure swayed in the dark room, a rope-twisted sheet around the patient's neck, hanging it in the air, and in his slightly open eyes, there was no breath of life.

--------------------------------

"You went to search the grave robber's brain? Who allowed you to go?! ”

An Xi listened to the report on the phone, and there was a trace of anger in his words.

I asked for the permission of the 'Lord', as the tomb robber might have clues in his brain about 'devouring'. Lou Yue's voice came from the microphone.

"Are you dying?! Your body simply can't support that much consumption! ”

…… There was silence on the other end of the line for a moment, and then he spoke again. This time the situation is urgent, and I didn't tell you in advance...... I'm sorry. However, although I plan to conduct a brain search on the person this time, it is actually ...... But it didn't work out.

"......" Hearing this, An Xi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief slightly, but his frowning brows still did not loosen. Tell me, what the hell is going on. ”

I've reported to you before that 'Eat' may have something to do with the tomb, and the only person who has seen the inside of the tomb and survived is the tomb robber who was previously held in a mental hospital...... So I'm going to start with the grave robber, but it's just ...... The man died suddenly, the night before I was scheduled to meet with him.

"Dead ......??"

Yes, the psychiatric hospital's version is that he committed suicide by hanging beams, because there were no traces of a fight at the scene, and the tomb robber should have broken free from the shackles that bound him on his own and hanged himself without a spare sheet...... However, regardless of why a good person committed suicide suddenly, I always feel a little suspicious just because of the timing of the accident......

"You mean, 'Devourer' killed the grave robber before you could meet him, and disguised himself as suicidal?"

I'm not sure, but it's possible...... Lou Yue paused and continued. Just as we moved our attention to the Loulan tomb and were about to dig up information from the only surviving tomb robber, this man committed suicide, and the timing was too coincidental...... And the last time I went to search this person's brain, it was because of the sudden accident of the 'Blood Key Bracelet', so I delayed this matter......

"Regardless of whether the death of the tomb robber was a poisonous hand of 'devouring', now that the person is dead, the situation inside the tomb has once again become an unsolvable mystery, and there is no way to confirm whether the 'devouring' is really related to the ancient tomb." An Xi pondered for a moment and shook his head slightly.

Is it possible to apply to the upper head to visit the tomb?

"If we could go to the grave so easily, we would have gone down all these years. The archaeological team that went to the tomb did not come back, and there was an uproar inside and outside the court, and it took an unknown amount of effort to suppress the matter...... Nowadays, in the absence of conclusive evidence, it is simply difficult to apply for a tomb. ”

An Xi sighed, and his tone became serious again.

"This matter still needs to be considered in the long run, you give me a good rest, without my consent, you are not allowed to act like this time, and the medicine that Zhu Xuan gave you must be taken on time, do you hear?"

…… Well, got it. Lou Yue sighed silently, and then hung up the phone.

"It's rare to see you so angry, Director An."

A calm voice sounded from his side, and An Xi put down the phone and turned his head to look at the man who walked into the office.

"You're here, Zhu Xuan." An Xi sighed, nodded slightly to the comer, and gestured to the chair in front of the desk. "Sit down, what's going on with what you asked you to investigate before?"

"As you feared, the mutation is starting to spread." Zhu Xuan pushed the black-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose and handed a document to An Xi. "Originally, it was only a part of the grassroots personnel in the system, but now even a few middle-level officials have begun to have drastic personality changes, and the reasons for this phenomenon are obvious......

"Was the 'key memory' altered by the Blood Keystone, thus affecting the 'ontological personality'? In other words, they have been manipulated......" An Xi frowned. "It seems that after 'devouring' them got those four Blood Keystones, they really started to step up their actions...... Zhu Xuan, have all the short-term drugs to resist the blood keystone brain search been distributed? ”

"The senior staff would have taken it regularly, and it was not a big problem; It's just that there are a large number of middle-level grassroots personnel, and although the production of drugs and arrangements for distribution have been stepped up, it will take some time to cover everyone. ”

"Be sure to hurry, although the officials who have undergone drastic personality changes are still within the controllable range, but after a long time, I am afraid that there will be variables, and I feel that 'devouring' them can no longer be helped......" An Xi lowered his head, and a trace of worry appeared in his calm pupils.

"Don't worry, I've already laid it out, and it should all be in place in these two days, but it's just ...... After all, my medicine can only be prevented in the short term, and the symptoms are not cured, and once the 'devoured' side takes advantage of the loopholes and controls some high-ranking officials, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable, and even cause political turmoil. ”

Zhu Xuan looked directly at An Xi and said slowly. "Judging from the current situation, the 'Devouring' side has obviously used Ye Yu's body cells to successfully develop a drug that 'resists the side effects of the Blood Keystone', so they can use the Blood Keystone to commit crimes so unscrupulously, and now they have obtained a number of Blood Keystones, behind this intensified action, the wolf's ambition has been clearly revealed......

"Control the country...... That's what they're for. An Xi looked back at Zhu Xuan and said. And once the forces of "devouring" have infiltrated at the top, we will no longer be able to return to the sky, and the whole country will fall into a catastrophe from which it will never recover. ”

“…… It's great that you know that. Zhu Xuan lowered his head, lifted his glasses, and said. Now the priority is to find out their hiding nest as soon as possible, do you have any ideas? ”

"The tomb robber who escaped from the 'Loulan Tomb' before may have clues related to 'devouring', but unfortunately he was found dead in a mental hospital last night, and the only clue was broken......"

"Just died yesterday ......?" Zhu Xuan lowered his head and thought, a sharp light flashed in his eyes behind the lenses. "How did he die?"

"The cantilever suffocated to death." An Xi replied.

In other words, his brain is still intact...... Is it? ”

"As it should be. What, did you think of something? An Yu looked at Zhu Xuan and asked.

"If so, maybe...... Clues can be found from the tomb robber, from the brain he left behind, to be exact. Zhu Xuan raised his head, and there was a hint of excitement in his words.

"The brains of the dead...... Can you also detect memories? Are you sure? ”

"As long as the brain is not destroyed, it is theoretically possible, and there is only one class of people who are capable of doing this – and that is the expulsor." Zhu Xuan is colorful. "In other words, only Ye Yu can dig out the hidden clues from the brain of the tomb robber who has died."

"But even if he has this ability, he still needs the assistance of the Blood Keystone, right? And the only blood keystone in our hands......" An Xi suddenly realized something, and his face changed suddenly. "Could it be...... Do you want to ......! ”

"I don't want to do that, but it's the only way to do it right now." Zhu Xuan sighed and pushed his glasses again.

"We need that blood keystone in Xiao Yue's body." (To be continued.) )
