Su Fang, deputy head of the 1st Pre-Search Section, came to the isolation ward, met with Li Andi and the others, and told them about the current progress of the incident.

"At present, colleagues in the technical bureau are cleaning up the corpses of those incapacitated zombies." Deputy Section Chief Su Fang said: "According to what you said before, the body of the villager named Liu Haodong should be in it, but it has not been found yet!" ”

"That Liu Haodong's corpse...... I'm afraid I've already fused with other zombies! Mr. Adam hesitated.

"......" Deputy Section Chief Su Fang's expression was a little uncomfortable, and he did not continue the topic, and continued: "The Technology Bureau and relevant experts from Xindu Medical University have desected Zheng Yongzhen's corpse, confirming that he was indeed infected by the 'zombie fungus'!" ”

"Section Chief Su, have you found out how Zheng Yongzhen was infected?" Chen Chuyao asked softly.

"According to the results of the autopsy report, there are no signs of external injuries on the deceased's body, and it has not been confirmed through what channel the fungal spores were exposed!" Deputy Section Chief Su Fang replied.

"Is the identity of the murderer clear?" Mr. Adam followed suit.

"In the past few days of quarantine, we have interrogated everyone separately!" Deputy Section Chief Su Fang said: "According to everyone's confessions, no eyewitnesses have seen anyone enter or leave Zheng Yongzhen's room. Of course, this is not to say that no one has been in or out, just that no one has seen it. ”

"What about everyone's alibi?" Chen Chuyao then asked softly.

"Except for a few members of the village committee who were resting in separate rooms on the second floor, the rest of the villagers were all together, but after midnight, everyone basically fell asleep, and there is no proof that no one left the rest area during that time." Deputy Section Chief Su Fang continued.

"That is, there are no suspects!?" Mr. Adam was confused.

"It can also be said that everyone has the possibility of committing a crime!" Andy Lee said in a deep voice.

"What can I do in that case?!" Mr. Adam continued: "You can't put everyone under suspicion! ”

"Based on the current situation, there is no reason for us to continue to keep those villagers and staff in the quarantine area or the police headquarters after the quarantine is over!" Deputy Section Chief Su Fang said worriedly: "The case is likely to reach an impasse and become an unsolved case!" ”

"Section Chief Su, you just said that experts from Xindu Medical University have conducted animal experiments on 'zombie fungi', so will live animals become zombies if they take or inject this fungus?" Chen Chuyao asked Deputy Section Chief Su Fang.

"If a live animal comes into direct contact with the fungus, there will be no problem. If taken or injected, it will cause rejection in the body, leading to high fever, vomiting and diarrhea. Deputy Section Chief Su Fang replied: "It's basically the same as food poisoning." ”

"It seems that Zheng Yongzhen's death is not simple." Chen Chuyao followed with a bright eye: "We know that the 'zombie fungus' can turn corpses into zombies, and it is useless for the living. Now it is certain that Zheng Yongzhen has indeed become a zombie, that is to say, Zheng Yongzhen was killed in advance, and then infected with the fungus and became a zombie. ”

"Zheng Yongzhen's room was not only locked from the inside, but also used a table and chair against the door! It is impossible for Zheng Yongzhen, who was killed in advance, to lock the door from the house and move the table and chairs to the door of the house! Li Andi suddenly said: "That is to say, this is not an 'internal bleeding room', but other kinds of secret rooms!" ”

"How did the murderer lock the door after killing Zheng Yongzhen?!" Mr. Adam also said confusedly.

"If you're just locking the door, you can do it from outside the room with a fishing line. But how do the tables and chairs move?! Li Andi followed: "At that time, I used nanorobots to probe the situation in the room, and the tables and chairs behind the door were artificially stacked against the door. Outside the door, we heard the sound of zombies clutching at the tables and chairs. ”

"Andy, you mean to say that the tables and chairs behind the door are placed very stably behind the door, and it is not the tables and chairs that lose their balance after closing the door to block the door!" Deputy Section Chief Su Fang tried to decipher what Li Andi said.

When Li Andi heard this, he nodded affirmatively and continued: "The crime index warning is likely to be issued in response to the murderer's killing of Zheng Yongzhen!" ”

"But the murderer has not revealed his whereabouts before, how could he be discovered by a super artificial intelligence because he killed Zheng Yongzhen?" Mr. Adam was still confused.

"And Liu Haodong!" Chen Chuyao's embroidered eyebrows frowned slightly, and his bright eyes swayed slightly: "Now it can be confirmed that Liu Haodong is also infected with fungi and has become a zombie." Then he must have been killed in advance, and then infected with the virus, which is consistent with Zheng Yongzhen's situation. But why didn't the murderer cause a criminal warning of super artificial intelligence when he killed Liu Haodong?! ”

"Could it be that Liu Haodong died in an accident and then contracted a fungus!" Andy Li guessed: "In this way, it will naturally not trigger a crime index warning!" ”

"However, I haven't heard of any accidents happening in the research institute building!" Mr. Adam also analyzed: "Is it a sudden illness? ”

"What is the real purpose of the murderer or the shadow man, we haven't found out yet!" Chen Chuyao followed and said: "If it's just to kill Liu Haodong and Zheng Yongzhen, why go to such a big time!?" ”

"I don't think the murderer's purpose is as simple as killing someone!" Deputy Section Chief Su Fang expressed his opinion.

"Our initial assumption was that someone coveted the Institute's technology, and we have been keeping a close eye on whether anyone has access to the core area of the Institute." "We didn't find anyone trying to steal the institute's technology and products," said Lee. ”

Regarding these situations, Deputy Section Chief Su Fang had already understood before, but now he was still puzzled, and then said: "Motive is often the key to solving the case, but what is the purpose of the murderer in this incident?" ”

"The identity and real purpose of the shadow man, the real reason for creating zombies, why do zombies chase the villagers, who put the zombies in the courtyard, who killed Liu Haodong and Zheng Yongzhen, and how was the secret room where Zheng Yongzhen was killed made?" Chen Chuyao listed all the doubts, and then said: "Only by solving these problems can we find out the truth of the whole incident!" ”

Several people present were deeply impressed by Chen Chuyao's summary, but at the same time, they had no clue, so they had to wait for more clues to be discovered......

The quarantine period has ended, and all the trapped people in the dying township have been freed.

At the same time, most of the corpses that turned into zombies were disposed of. Those who were able to identify themselves by their physical appearance were quickly relocated to their original graves. The bodies that were badly damaged and fused together were all reidentified through DNA testing, and most have been reburied.

In the process of cleaning up the body, Liu Haodong's body was also found, and after identification, it was confirmed that it was infected by fungi. But because the body was so mutilated, the real cause of death could not be found.

When the border police cleaned up the scene, they also found the old bachelor sixth uncle and the lazy man Wang Er, who were forgotten in the dying village by the villagers who went to the institute for refuge. Because no one came to call them, the two always thought that it was snowing heavily in the past few days, so they simply hid at home and did not go out. When the border police came to the door during the investigation, they did not know anything about what had happened in the past few days.

The whereabouts of Zheng Yongshun, who worked in the Fengmutang mortuary, are unknown. After searching, the border police could not find his whereabouts, so they had to temporarily list him as a missing person.

With the clean-up work over, some residents of the dying township began to return to their homes. However, there are many people who are afraid of the events that have just happened, and temporarily stay at the homes of relatives and friends and do not return to their hometowns. As a result, the normal operation of hot spring hotels and cemeteries has been greatly affected.

The incident of the dying township was inevitably spread, after all, it involved many relatives and friends of the deceased residents of Xindu and the surrounding residents, and the whole incident caused an uproar, and the media from all walks of life also had different opinions, which made the people of Xindu panic.

In order to minimize the impact of the incident, the Xindu Police Headquarters published most of the facts, claiming that the entire incident was caused by an unknown fungus, which was not harmful to living people, and that the fungus had been completely destroyed. The cemetery in the dying township is also being restored, and everything will soon be restored to normal.

As for the two homicides, as well as the unidentified shadow man, none of them were mentioned to the public. Basically, this event is characterized as a sudden anomaly in nature.

The investigation of the incident in the dying township by the Xindu Police Headquarters is continuing.

On this day, Li Andi found Chen Chuyao and said eagerly: "Chuyao, I just got the news!" ”

Chen Chuyao was sitting at the desk looking at the case file of the dying township, when she suddenly heard Li Andi's voice, raised her head and looked at Li Andi with her beautiful and clear big eyes, and asked softly, "What's wrong?!" ”

"According to the staff who have returned to the institute, there is one less prototype of the super battery in the institute!"

Chen Chuyao was stunned and said, "The products of the research institute are still stolen?!" ”

"At present, it is indeed stolen!" Andy Lee replied unwillingly.

Chen Chuyao's embroidered eyebrows frowned slightly, his clear eyes flowed, and he analyzed: "In this way, the real purpose of the shadow man can be confirmed, which is to steal the technology of the research institute!" ”

"But how did the shadow man do it!" Li Andi was puzzled: "Obviously, we have been paying close attention to the laboratory and office area, and we have not found anything abnormal!" ”

"The Shadow Man must have committed the theft after we went to the living quarters!" Chen Chuyao continued to analyze: "Because after everyone came to the living area, we only monitored the corridor leading to the work area, and did not continue to monitor the situation in the work area. ”

Andy Lee followed: "But no one went to the work area through the corridor......
