The size of Lewinholm was almost equivalent to a prefecture-level city before Yi Chen's death, and it would cost a lot of time to go too far.

Since the hospital is located in the western part of the city, we also searched for the residential area here.

merely

Yi Chen didn't immediately devote himself to the search for the body, but was thinking about something else.

When I met Dean Diess just now, I was attracted by the unique shape of the other party and the sun's luster all over my body, and naturally I also thought of the "secret medicine of the sun" that is closely related to the director himself and the development of the hospital.

After all, having experienced something like the Twilight Clinic, Yi Chen would inevitably not associate the death that happened here with the secret medicine.

He knew very well that gentlemen would never doubt that an elite gentleman who could become a [doctor] through layers of selection, let alone this high-ranking Dean Diss.

Walking among the streets completely encroached by the fog, Yi Chen gently tapped the armor of the knight Barry, "How much do you know about the Solar Elixir?" ”

"Quite a famous battle-type elixir, you should know about it, right?"

"I probably know what it's used for, but I'd like to ask Barry, do you know anything about the making of secret medicines? For example, what kind of patients are used? How to extract key materials from patients, it is naturally best to know the specific production process. ”

Although Barry is honest, he is not stupid at all, Yi Chen suddenly threw out this kind of question at such a time, and his intention was too obvious.

"You guy, don't be suspicious of this kind of thing. Dean Diess has a high reputation in the organization, and the flare enhancement provided by the "Sun Elixir" has an irreplaceable effect on the large gray field in the organization's exploration. ”

Yi Chen also replied nonchalantly: "It's a good thing to have one more direction to consider, and I'm just talking to you alone, and I won't openly doubt it."

Barry, you were born into a knight family, and your profession and characteristics should be very compatible with the Sun Elixir, so you should know some inside information, right? ”

Barry did not deny this, and their family was able to get a batch of secret medicines distributed by the organization every month, one of which was the Sun Secret Medicine.

"There is no problem with the production process of the Sun Elixir, because the key to its production is not the patient, but the Dean of Dis.

After the death of ordinary patients suffering from "Sun Spot Disease", their bodies will be buried in the [Plantation] of Sunshine Hospital, and they will be exposed to the sunlight directly or indirectly released by Dean Diess every day.

Eventually, a sunflower-like plant will grow from the corpse's head.

Picking the golden sunflower seeds on the top, grinding and processing them to obtain the liquid is the "secret medicine of the sun".

Most people know about this process, but the production process must rely on the sun of Dean Diss, and only here can the secret medicine be produced. ”

"Plant the dead? Well...... Doesn't sound like a problem. ”

The matter of the Sun Elixir has been put aside for the time being.

During the small talk, the two of them had walked a block, and the long stay in this dead gray fog caused goosebumps to give Barry in armor one after another.

"By the way, how do we find the deceased in the first place? If you want to control the time of death within five minutes, I'm afraid you have to carry it as soon as the other party dies. ”

Yi Chen rubbed his chin with two fingers, and said while thinking: "It doesn't really matter if you die or not, as long as you determine your 'suicidal tendencies', it's naturally better to be alive and bring it back?"

However, I must have thought that the resident gentleman must have had such thoughts, but no one has ever been able to capture the 'suicide' alive these days.

Combined with my previous statistics, the majority of people who live alone and homeless people die, and if you analyze them together, you can get a more disturbing speculation. ”

"What speculation?" Barry was clearly overwhelmed.

"Individuals who are affected and acted upon by [death], in addition to instinctively seeking death, will also ensure their own 'independence' and ensure that their death is not discovered.

In the case of the gentlemen who died recently, they all disappeared first, and the bodies were found a day or two apart. The reason is that the willpower of gentlemen is much greater than that of ordinary people and they are protected by the "skin of a gentleman", and they may be able to resist it for a while if they are implanted with the concept of death.

In addition, most gentlemen also have the characteristics of self-protection and self-healing, and it is much more difficult to commit suicide than ordinary people.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of death, they deliberately disappeared and hid in unknown corners. If you are completely sure that you will not be discovered, and if you can succeed in suicide, you will kill yourself. ”

Barry remembered something and hurriedly asked, "Why did the 'living dead' who had their brains transplanted in the ward commit suicide despite our prying eyes?" It's entirely possible that we could have stopped him from jumping, wouldn't we? ”

"Thirty minutes after death, there will already be problems with brain tissue, and his pursuit of death and judgment of the environment will also be problematic...... At that time, it can also be seen that the living dead also had the behavior of looking around the ward at first, and after confirming that no one was there, they could not wait to rush to the window. ”

"Well, that makes sense." Barry shook his barrel helmet back and forth.

"And [the independence of suicide], Mr. Helvoye's brain transfer of the living dead, is a perfect target.

Controlling the living dead in advance and then performing a brain transplant can effectively curb suicidal behavior, and craniotomy in the living state may really be able to find out the real cause of death."

"Well, let's hurry back to Mr. Helvoye with some fresh dead."

"Don't worry, it's a matter of luck."

After some searching, as long as no one died on the street that the two deliberately walked, it was as if 'someone' was secretly watching all this, and as long as there was a risk of suicide being discovered, it would not take the initiative to happen.

Yi Chen also deliberately visited some families, saying that he was a temporary patrolman in this neighborhood, and if there was anything unusual in the family, he could be approached at any time.

Before you know it, four hours passed.

Nothing...... No one died in this neighborhood, after all, the city of Lewinholm is so big, and it is normal for dozens or hundreds of people to die every day without landing on a single block.

There was a grunt from under Barry's armor, and he proposed: "It's getting dark, or that's it today~ Let's go back to the hospital first, maybe Mr. Helvoye's autopsy has made a breakthrough, and we don't need to provide fresh corpses." ”

"Let's go back and get some food first, I want to go out late at night."

Barry glanced at Yi Chen at this time, and saw obvious unwillingness in Yi Chen's eyes, as well as a strong interest in this unknown death.

Just as the two of them were returning on foot, before they had completely walked out of a street, Yi Chen suddenly stopped.

Leaning his head sideways, he stared at an ordinary single-storey residential house on the side of the road, and a rusty metal door number - [112 Ferro Street] was inlaid on the doorpost.

"Barry, let's go take a look."

"Huh? Didn't you say go back to dinner? Why do you still have to do a civil visit? ”

"I'll go back when I'm done with this."

Knock knock~ The iron door knocks

It wasn't long before an old lady with kind eyebrows and gray hair in a pink spotted apron opened the door, and the strong smell of flesh wafted through the crack in the door, as if she was making dinner.

"Hello, my name is William. Behrens, this is my partner Barry. We're both gentlemen in charge of the area temporarily, can we come in and sit down? ”

"Welcome!"

It is the existence of gentlemen that has allowed Lewinholm to develop into such a pathogenic world, and the people who live here are very friendly to the gentleman community.

The interior of the house is old and decorated, but it is very neat.

"Have you eaten?"

"Not yet."

"It just so happens that I'm home alone, and I can't eat much every day, and then you gentlemen will bring extra ingredients, and I'm worried about whether I should send some extra food to my neighbors.

Wait a minute, I'm going to prepare some food for you too, this special time is really hard for you. ”

"Okay, I'm sorry for you."

Yi Chen came to the living room area and sat down casually,

Barry on the side asked helplessly: "William, did you see that cooking was going on here, so you came to visit, and had dinner by the way?" Save the journey back to the hospital so that the search for the body can continue. ”

"That's one of the reasons......"

Yi Chen squinted his eyes and motioned for Barry to sit next to him, and then quickly tore off one of the pages of the corpse register brought out by the hospital and quietly handed it to him.

The house number on the paper corresponds to this room.
