Devlin stared at the person in front of her, looking up and down, back and forth.
Colin was a little confused by her look. He rubbed his eyebrows and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"Where were you last night? And the highlights on your head, why did you remember that you dyed your hair white?" Devlin withdrew her gaze, her eyes full of suspicion.
Revealed? I was in such a hurry that I forgot to dye my white hair black! But...
Colin looked at Devlin in confusion. You must know that he was the one who came back first today. In order to rush for time, he even took the luxury of calling a taxi. When he got home, even without looking through his left eye, he could see that Devlin had
Wan also didn't come back.
To be precise, no one visited this two-story building from last night to noon today.
So, how did Devlin know? Through neighbors? Or by some other means?
"In fact, yesterday I..."
Colin was about to tell the reasons he had made up on the way.
"Ling Ling Ling Ling -"
"Your phone has been unreachable!"
There is no doubt that the cancerous changes in this world, or demonic lesions, are closely related to extraordinary power. Colin now believes that research on this topic is worthy of in-depth study, and he also has a certain foundation.
"What's wrong?"
Immediately, a scream came from the side, and Devlin looked even more excited than Colin.
She looked at Colin with gleaming eyes, which made Colin feel uncomfortable.
After the confused silence, Devlin narrowed her eyes, glanced at Colin, and replied on the phone: "He is right next to me, what do you have to say?" Then she raised her little fist and protested at Colin.
: "Turn on the phone! Don't let the beautiful Miss Moore find you!"
"OK."
Colin looked at the fist and thought of the split black bear head. He felt a chill in his back. He took out his cell phone and explained: "The signal was suddenly confused yesterday, so I turned off the phone."
"Petty." He called the orange cat's name, "What's going on with you? Why are you so dirty!"
She took it out and looked at it, then glanced at Colin.
Watching Colin's back disappear outside the yard, Devlin remembered her original question and frowned.
"What happened?"
"Uh, okay." Colin then recalled the paper. It was only one night, but it seemed like a long time had passed. But when he thought about the big hole caused by a strange combination of circumstances again, his mood was completely different.
.
Devlin's phone suddenly rang at this moment.
When Colin pricked up his ears and was about to listen to what the other party had to say, what he heard was this sentence——
On the phone, Chloe Moore told him the general situation.
Colin's sudden initiative surprised the female forensic doctor, and then she said: "Next, we will continue to improve the theory and continue research. If possible, I hope you can guide the topic and establish a comprehensive plan. Of course, there is no rush.
.Oh, by the way..."
Colin took it and put it to his ear.
In the Hall of All Souls, he collected a lot of information through his left eye. Each of those mutated beasts was involved in demonic diseases.
"No problem." Colin nodded again. His purpose was not to publish any paper at all, but the research itself. "Is there anything else I need to cooperate with?"
Colin did not dare to delay, so he hurriedly left with the orange cat in his arms.
"Looking from the back, they really look alike. They have similar bodies, but it's impossible. If he is so powerful, why is he still pretending to be a rookie and living here? Is it to sneak into the special search team? This doesn't make sense! Say
I think he is just for food and shelter. Besides, Captain Jameson is very sure that Colin only has some spiritual qualities after Teblon's experiment! Maybe it's just that they have a similar appearance. I'm really good at thinking.
!This is not one of those detective novels. Next to the beautiful lady, there is a careerist with terrifying power..."
"...Mr. Anfield did not find you and could not contact you due to the failure of the urban communication network, so he sent the paper to the editorial office of "Continental Medicine" in advance. He hopes that you can forgive his arbitrary decision, because at that time
Time is tight, you know, it's almost the last day of the year, if you don't catch up in time, you will miss a lot. For this reason, he even used his special suggestion power."
"..."
"Awesome!" she cheered, "You are going to become a great scientist!"
Located in the editorial office of "Continental Medicine" in Desai City, the capital of Clovis, four reviewers with different identities were summoned by Dr. Philip, the rotating chairman of the review department this month——
Recalling that several captains before and after had said that her reasoning was unreliable, Devlin decisively gave up thinking.
Devlin still cheered, and then said: "When the journal comes, remember to give me a copy, I want to show it to an unpleasant little guy!"
"Huh? I forgot to ask him to tell me exactly where he went last night!"
"Can you contact Colin Varland?" The female forensic doctor on the phone said straight to the point, "I haven't been able to get through to him!"
"Finally got through!" Chloe's voice on the receiver was a little urgent, which surprised Devlin. You know, in her impression, the female forensic doctor was always unhurried and unhurried, and most of them even seemed a bit cold.
Rarely shows eagerness.
"Uh, it doesn't matter, I should be grateful for his wrong love." Colin was slightly startled, and then said. Now he has some confidence, and he really wants to use the relationship of the female forensic doctor to do an in-depth study of demonic diseases, and see if he can
No and the mysterious path corroborate each other.
"That's good, I will tell him. I believe he will arrange a formal meeting with you soon." The female forensic doctor also breathed a sigh of relief, "Also, I still want to remind you that although our paper is of great significance,
Sometimes, the review will consider other issues, especially at this point in time, which involves some prospects for next year, so you have to be prepared, maybe it won't be put to January. I mean, there will be a small chance.
We will miss the January issue, so you have to be mentally prepared in advance."
As one of the most influential academic journals in the Old World, "Continental Medicine", in addition to many external reviewers, also maintains a review team of three to five people all year round, each of whom is based in Clovis
Academia plays an important role.
the other side.
"Oh, he said it was because of the signal...what?" Devlin was saying, suddenly looked surprised, and then looked at Colin, "Really? I thought that such a thing would only happen when bragging!
"
"Did you run out?" He frowned.
"A paper doesn't have that much influence." Colin sweated on his forehead, "And as you heard, there are a lot of uncertainties!"
Only then did Devlin remember that due to the ritual, the spiritual power of the earth's veins was chaotic, coupled with strange interference, all ordinary communication equipment failed, and she turned off her mobile phone because of "work". Did she miss out on this?
Chloe's emergency?
"..."
"Chloe said that Mr. Anfield, the dean of Bursenberg Medical School, went to see her in person yesterday. No, to be precise, he went for you! He is very optimistic about your research! He is very complimentary to you.
words!" Devlin's face was full of excitement, "Colin, you seem to be really powerful! I was right!"
"This is not okay! A lady can't do this!" Devlin also noticed what the orange cat looked like, "Kelin, there is a pet hospital nearby where you can take a bath. You should take her to clean it up quickly. Don't let her develop bad habits.
"She then gave her address.
Miss Petty's body was stained with a lot of dirt, and there were a few dark footprints on the floor beneath her, like mud. When Colin got closer, he smelled a very light odor.
"You were absent from work this morning. Old Carl asked me to remind you that this is not okay. He will deduct money from you in accordance with the rules."
"Don't worry, speak slowly, I'm listening."
"I know a kid..." Devlin wanted to say more, but the forensic doctor on the phone urged her, so the red-haired girl reluctantly handed the phone to Colin.
You didn't listen to what I said at all!
"Okay." Colin reluctantly returned the phone and was about to say something when he suddenly noticed a small figure in the corner of the room.
After a brief silence, the unsung hero who saved Bursonburg last night said that he would definitely arrive on time in the afternoon, and then hung up the phone.
"It's Chloe," Devlin showed an ambiguous smile and pressed the answer button, "Could it be that you were... last night?"
"Wow!"
"Philip, what happened? You called us all here in such a hurry?"
As soon as he entered the door, Dean Brendan, the oldest, asked: "Are there any important papers that need to be supplemented? Didn't we already decide on the content for January at the year-end meeting the day before yesterday?" Although he is not young,
He is slightly hunched over, but his voice is loud and his steps are as fast as flying.
"There is a paper that needs you to review." Dr. Philip raised his eyes with a serious expression, "I think this is a very important paper! It must be treated with caution! If it passes the review, it should be submitted immediately
Join the January issue and feature it as content!"
"Main recommendation?" Dean Brendan frowned slightly, "Didn't we all decide to let Calvin's article be the main recommendation?"
