Inhuman Tests and Genome Altered Men - C18
Xu Haoqing continued, “Shu Jing, there is a gap between semi-finished products, you are more outstanding than me and Li Fengyun, your genetic improvement and expression level is higher, your brain utilization is higher, and you are closer to the finished product, so to deal with Yu, we need your help. Although you are still far from being able to recover to your peak condition, I believe that one day, you will be able to return to your former self and become our biggest hope in dealing with Yu.”
“Your previous deduction is not accurate. Even if the mysterious black clothed man is the murderer of Yang Wenchao and Luo Mu, even if he is an ugly man, he can’t be sure that his motive for killing is to prevent the research of the semi-finished product. But no matter what, you and Feng Yun’s future life won’t be easy. I’m a police officer, and I have my responsibilities, and I don’t fear those criminals, and you guys are not the same. If you really encounter a crisis, you guys lack the ability to protect yourselves, and the ‘Jade’ organization wants to study your brains, so the black clothed people might not want to do you any harm.
That being said, even if Xu Haoqing sends a large group of people to protect us, we still have a hard time winning against that man in black who has great abilities.
These two murders of Yang Wenchao and Luo Mu could be considered as our two encounters with the culprit. However, during these two confrontations, we were very passive.
Xu Haoqing still has a lot of things to do, so he can’t always protect me and Li Fengyun. His next steps are not clear either, and he still doesn’t know much about the people from ‘Kuang’, the black-clothed man, and the Old Chou. He can only take one step at a time.
After Xu Haoqing’s instructions, Li Fengyun and I left the police station. Sitting in a car that looked like a private car, I went back to the employee dormitory of the Home Appliances supermarket while Li Fengyun went back to his shack and continued living there.
According to what Li Fengyun and I had discussed, from tomorrow onwards, I would sell household appliances in the store during the day and train with him at night. I would try my best to recover my former combat strength as soon as possible, otherwise, it would be beneficial for my future actions.
It seemed that Xu Haoqing had already informed me. The manager, who usually bullied me for bullying me, treated me well and gave me a single room. He even told me to work if I liked in the future, and to take a good rest if I didn’t want to work.
Ah, that face.
If it was me from three years ago, when I met such a leader, I would have already thought of a way to deal with him.
Forget it, now that Luo Mu is dead, the treatment centre is closed, the Unbroken Hell is abolished. Those three years of experience should be sealed away along with the treatment center that was closed.
After going through so many things, reflecting on my previous self, I now feel that I was a little too arrogant. Other than that person, I always felt that I was the most awesome, disrespecting others, looking down on others, fighting to win and refusing to give in. Three years of living under electric shock has also allowed me to remember, not being overbearing anymore, restraining myself a little, and being the better self.
The next morning, I woke up and went to the store. The head of the store was making a phone call at the entrance, and greeted me with a nod of his head and a bow.
I couldn’t help but laugh. I politely greeted the leader, who hung up the phone in fear.
Sigh, everyone was a human, there was no need to embarrass him.
“Leader, don’t be too polite. It’s fine as long as it’s the same as before. I’m still your employee and you’re still my leader …”
“Alright, Brother Jing, you have the final say.”
“Just like before, just call me Shu Jing.”
He didn’t explain too much to him and continued to do his job.
At noon, the water dispenser in the shop ran out of water. A colleague called for a bucket of water and sent it over quickly.
The watermen wore the same uniforms they had worn the night before, indicating that they came from the same water station.
“Bro, let me ask you something.” I passed the cigarette to Little Brother Shui, preparing to ask about the Old Ugly. Actually, the police have already asked and the conclusion has to be drawn. I just want to personally hear someone’s evaluation of the Old Ugly.
“Bro, go ahead.” The young man lit a cigarette and smiled.
“Is there a worker called Old Ugly in your water station? I’ve seen him a few times before.”
The young man nodded, “That’s right, what’s wrong with big brother? Why is everyone asking about Old Freak?”
“Everyone? Who else? ”
“A few policemen went yesterday and they were also asking about the matter with Old Chou. Did he get into trouble?” Sigh, I already thought that old fogey was abnormal. ”
Listening to what little brother said, there was a hidden meaning behind his words.
“What do you mean?”
Brother, don’t judge me by my young age, but I’ve been a water delivery worker for several years. I have no other choice, my education is low, and my family background is not good. In order to support myself, I can only do this kind of work that doesn’t require much thought.
“…”
According to Little Brother Shui, when he first arrived, the old employees didn’t like him. He only cared about his own work and interacted with others on a daily basis.
Later on, the little brother came to understand that the ugly man was shamelessly staying at the water station to work. Because he was introverted and ugly, no one wanted to talk to him.
Lao Chou was responsible for this area in the past, but about three years ago, he suddenly adjusted the area he was in charge of and changed it to the one in the shantytown now.
The reason why the little guy said the old guy was abnormal was because of two experiences: one time, when the little guy was using the water station’s public toilet, he heard the old guy starting to piss when he heard the sound of the phone ringing inside the stall. The little guy immediately hung up the phone and came out, glaring fiercely at the little guy as if scolding him for eavesdropping on him; unfortunately, the little guy only heard the old guy say, “Yes, I know.” The other time was when the car broke down and he was about to go out of the water station to find someone to help him, when he saw that the car had already been carried out of the door.
“…”
After saying that, the little brother’s phone rang, indicating that he still had something on, and I didn’t disturb him, so I left the contact details and let him go.
From what he said, it seemed like the old ugly was quite abnormal.
It was just a phone call, was there a need to glare at others like an enemy?
A car weighing six to seven hundred kilograms lifted up a few centimeters. Was this innate divine strength?
Obviously, the men who killed Yang Wenchao and Luo Mu were very skilled, and the ugly man’s inborn supernatural strength already met the requirements.
The suspicion of Old Chou was even greater now. I was ready to report my findings to Xu Haoqing and Li Fengyun.
“Captain Xu, I’ve learned something about Old Freak. I’m going to go to their water delivery station to learn more about him.”
“Okay, tell me what you found.”
After telling Xu Haoqing what he had learned from his childhood, Xu Haoqing didn’t say anything more. He told him to be careful.
“Boss, I’m going out for a while.” As usual, the Leader didn’t make things difficult for me when he asked for a leave of absence from me.
There weren’t many people in the water station, so when I entered the gate, I paid special attention to the threshold. The threshold was indeed very low, about three to four centimeters, but it was impossible to cross it with a car weighing six to seven hundred kilograms.
After entering the house, I sent out a circle of cigarettes, politely stating my intentions. These sailors were all very easy to talk to. Seeing that I was modest and dressed in ordinary clothes, they started to chat with me.
He couldn’t help but wonder if he could have a peaceful chat with ordinary people like them three years ago. I don’t think so. At that time, I always felt that I was superior to others, and it was difficult for a normal person’s intelligence to understand what I was saying.
Ah, this could also be considered as the harvest of three years of electric shock.
He’s different from us, he’s a person, it’s especially strange. He doesn’t even make any sound when he walks, I didn’t know it when we first met, sometimes when I was busy, when I turned around I saw that he had already appeared behind me, and he was also ugly, it gave me a fright a few times.
I came back a little late that day and parked the car, preparing to change my clothes. However, the moment I turned on the lights, Old Ugly was standing in front of me with his expressionless face and listless eyes staring outside. It was already dark by then, and he didn’t even turn on the lights when he was inside the house.
“What are you guys doing?” “Last July, I wanted to go home early after work. When I went out, I saw Old Chou floating in from outside like a ghost. It was so scary, as if there was no shadow of him …”
“When I woke up in the middle of the night and went to the toilet …”
The more I listened, the less interested I became. Initially, the two brothers were rather reliable, but after a while, it became a horror story. These brothers probably saw Old Ugly as a monster.
When I saw him that night, he was walking softly, but there was a shadow.
They were probably just lying about their terrifying experiences. They felt that if they didn’t say anything, it would be a little out of place, so they played it out with their imagination and described Old Chou as a ghost.
The inner office door opened and a fat middle-aged man came out, saying unhappily, “If you’re not working properly, then why are you wasting your breath here?”
“Station Head, that …”
Oh, this man is the station master.
“Hello Station Master, I want to find you guys to understand some things.” I didn’t say who I was, thinking that my identity as a appliance seller wasn’t very convincing, so I might as well not say anything.
It seemed that some of the station chiefs were easy to talk to. After less than a second of hesitation, they immediately dragged me to the office. I didn’t know whether they thought I was a plainclothes cop or a reporter who had come to do a covert interview.
“Little brother, what do you want to know? Just tell me.” The station master took the initiative to smoke, with a mild attitude.
“As for me, I have a bit of a personal relationship with Captain Xu Haoqing of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. The main purpose of this visit was to find out more about Old Ugly. He’s been working here for several years, what do you think of him?” I went straight to the point.
Seeing me reveal my identity, the station head immediately said, “Leader, I’ve told the police everything I know. Old Chou is very secretive, but he’s a good person and does things efficiently. He’s been with me all these years and I never thought that his identity was actually fake, sigh …”
“Station Head, other than these, is there anything else? How is Old Ugly getting along with his colleagues? How’s your personal relationship? ”
He doesn’t have any personal relationship with the other people in the station, he doesn’t have any relationship with them either. Everyone has some fear and prejudice towards him, so it’s not a big deal, since this person is not in the same group as me. The feeling I get is that this person is not a bad person.
“He’s different from ordinary people. Is the station head interested in something else?”
“Not really. It’s just that my usual performances are a little strange. Don’t think too much about it.”
“Oh right, what happened three years ago when Lao Xiao changed his water delivery area?” Unable to gather any useful information, I asked Lao Chou about the transfer from Yang Wenzhao’s house to the shantytown.
I still have some impression of that. When Old Ugly found me and said that he wanted to change the location, I felt that it was a bit strange. Old Ugly usually doesn’t talk much, but that time he came to me alone to express his intentions, so I didn’t decline and arranged another area for him.
“Nothing much, did Old Chou perform any abnormal during that period of time?” Do you see him interacting more with those people? Did he have any relatives or friends? ”
The station head shook his head, “I really can’t remember anything abnormal. After all, it’s been so long, and he’s always been different from others. If there’s really something abnormal, I won’t be able to notice it.” As for relatives and friends, I’ve never seen them, have never heard him mention them, have never seen him get close to anyone, and he doesn’t even take their private calls, he’s just receiving water calls every day. ”
Hmm, sure enough, the Old Chou’s actions were quite secretive, the water delivery station’s colleague didn’t say what was going on, the station head didn’t even know where Old Chou lived, and didn’t even know where he lived. Hmm, sure enough, Old Chou’s actions were quite secretive, the water delivery station’s colleague didn’t say what was going on, and the station head didn’t even know where he lived, and didn’t even know where he lived.
He came out of the water station and called Xu Haoqing, wanting to report his findings.
“Shu Jing, is Li Fengyun with you?” On the other side of the phone, Xu Haoqing’s voice sounded a little anxious.
Before I could say anything, Xu Haoqing asked me first.
“No, I just went to the water station where Old Chou was. I found something. Is there anything you need from Li Fengyun?”
“Something happened. The technical staff from the department analyzed the car tracks found behind the clinic. I found them familiar. From the electric cars sold in our city, only one of the cars matched the tracks.”
“Captain Xu, is there a problem with that rut?”
“The rut is exactly the same as the tire of Li Fengyun’s electric car, and judging from the traces left on the scene, the car that left those marks must have been riding for a long time and is obviously worn out.”
I thought of Li Fengyun’s old electric car…
