One day ago, after the battle, outside the villain's stronghold.
"Shapeshifter?"
Agent Luo Yajun lit another cigarette.
"You mean, you can look like someone else?"
"That's right." Chen Meiyue said, "She can become exactly like the target object, no matter the appearance, height or body shape. As for the transformation conditions... I guess it should be a DNA sample.
She extracted the blood from all of us, and then she can become everyone's appearance. But the memory should not be copied - the purpose of keeping us alive is to ask for some specific information so that she can disguise herself."
Luo Yajun's eyes swept over the hostages. He noticed that most of the people detained in this base were young and beautiful girls. Not to mention all of them were beautiful, but at least they were all curvy. Although they were detained for a long time, they were all young and beautiful.
His face looks like that of a refugee fleeing famine, but he can vaguely tell that his foundation is still good.
As long as the prisoner is a man, it will not be unjust if he is dragged out and executed within three years. But according to the testimony, the prisoner seems to be a woman, so either this person is a heavy lesbian who prefers strange play, or she may really be like that.
What Chen Meiyue said was for ulterior motives.
"You mean, she is a shape-shifter. And all of you hostages are her resource pool. She can transform into any of you and steal your identities to act."
"Yes. Her ability is very dangerous, and we must conduct a thorough investigation of the movements of all the hostages present during this period.
She could use our identities to do anything, even..."
"It even includes stealing the identity of a senior agent and sneaking into the aircraft carrier of Secret Service 9, right?" Luo Yajun continued.
Chen Meiyue trembled violently.
"You mean... shouldn't it have been..."
She rubbed her temples and felt dizzy.
"...Oh my God."
She pondered for a moment, as if she couldn't think of anything to say.
"Are the consequences serious?" she raised her head and asked.
"It depends on how you define 'serious'. Batman came, and he brought a white accomplice with him, and they dealt with the worst guys who invaded the mothership.
But someone stole a seemingly insignificant piece of evidence, and we don’t yet know what its use is..."
"...Oh my God."
Chen Meiyue repeated it. She had imagined all kinds of bad situations that would happen after her identity was stolen. She thought she was mentally prepared, but now she realized that she was not.
Then she raised her head and glanced left and right, as if to confirm that no one else was listening, then she moved closer and whispered to Luo Yajun in a low voice.
"She would come back every once in a while, sometimes taking a hostage out, sometimes asking questions directly... These were all detailed questions, so that she could pretend to be the one.
But she never shows her true face when she comes in. Every time we see her, she wears the face of one of us.
She is very careful and never relaxes her vigilance even for those of us who are imprisoned, and almost never leaves any clues that can lead to her identity."
Chen Meiyue paused and her expression became more serious.
"But I'm not a vegetarian either," she said.
Luo Yajun realized that she had handed something into his hand and deliberately avoided the eyes of others.
"What's this?"
He put the thing away tacitly, without lowering his head to look at it. He only felt it was like some kind of almost imperceptible thread.
"One of her hairs." Chen Meiyue whispered, "She didn't notice it, but I have hidden this hair for several days, so that one day in the future this hair may help us trace its origin."
identity."
"Why leave it to me?" Luo Yajun frowned, "You should report it to your superiors and hand it over to the professional investigation team responsible for taking over the incident. Then..."
"because,"
Chen Meiyue's voice became even lower, so low that it was almost just the shape of her mouth. But Luo Yajun understood what she meant.
I don't trust other people, she said.
Luo Yajun understood.
She believed that it was no coincidence that she was ambushed, was captured by a design, and the series of chain reactions triggered by the subsequent invasion of the mothership.
There may be other moles in Secret Service Branch 9.
"You have never really trusted this organization, which is good. I only trust you now." Chen Meiyue whispered, "I know I can entrust this to you.
Find her and prove her existence to others. Then when you find her, treat it as a favor to me...be more ruthless."
Luo Yajun: "..."
Later that day, Chen Meiyue was indeed imprisoned in a special cell on the mothership.
If what she said is true - there really was a shapeshifter pretending to be her and doing those things, then the other hostages will confirm her story. But even so, she cannot be released immediately, and there are still many tests for her
and assessments to be done.
And judging from the situation, the headquarters may not buy her account.
Not long after returning to the headquarters, Luo Yajun was interviewed by his superiors.
An agent in the action team reported that after today's battle, Chen Meiyue and the agent Luo Yajun who led the team said something. The superiors had doubts about this, and they wanted an explanation from Luo Yajun.
They told Luo Yajun that maybe Chen Meiyue claimed that she was innocent, and maybe that was indeed the case. But people in their profession always need to be suspicious of everything, and they could not believe her based on just one side of the story.
Maybe the so-called shape-shifter doesn't exist at all, and is completely fabricated by Chen Meiyue. Maybe the mole is herself, and she is doing this just to regain trust.
Of course, the testimonies of other rescued hostages may prove that she told the truth. But this requires further investigation, and if Chen Meiyue is really a mole, with the cooperation of other members of the Dead Warriors, it is completely impossible to deceive the eyes of other hostages.
possible.
They should indeed be suspicious. Chen Meiyue handed him an important piece of evidence. Any agent of the organization should report this situation. This is their bounden duty.
But Luo Yajun has never been a rule-abiding person.
"No."
He stood in the conference room, looking at the leaders indifferently.
"She told me about a shapeshifter who could assume the appearance of someone else, just like she told you. That's all."
Luo Yajun always said that he was a carefree guy and that there was no one worth caring about in this world, but he knew deep down that this was not the case. If he had to pick out half of the people in this world that he cared about,
, Chen Meiyue should be considered the half.
It's not that he has any bad thoughts about his young, beautiful and busty superior, but purely as a friend and colleague who takes care of each other. He is a person who never follows the rules, and he also knows how many tricks he has caused, but he
He always received tolerance and understanding, even though he never asked for it.
He knows how much care he has received.
Luo Yajun did not mention the hair to anyone. He borrowed a laboratory affiliated with the Ninth Division for DNA comparison, but made up an excuse to pretend it was a private matter and did not register and report it.
For subordinate units, Luo Yajun was considered a superior in the organization, so the laboratory was happy to help him. So soon, he got the results he wanted.
The computer automatically found a match from the database and quickly helped him locate the owner of the hair.
Lin Yi, a fifteen-year-old girl.
A girl who died more than ten years ago.
This result undoubtedly surprised Luo Yajun.
It seems that people who are legally dead long ago crawled out of their graves to cause trouble. It seems that similar things have never happened before. It has often been proven afterwards that there is a high probability that they may be infected.
If a person who is dying or has just died has great resentment and unwillingness to dissipate, he may cheat his body after being infected.
But the problem is, that was all very recent.
A girl who has been dead for more than ten years?
At that time, there was no such thing as infected people.
With questions in mind, Luo Yajun visited the dusty archives and looked up the story about this girl.
A tragedy that would not be considered new even in the past.
It was an ordinary weekend.
Lin Yi's parents were away on business that week, so the girl needed to stay at her uncle Lin Ruiming's house for a day, and along the way she brought her best friend Shan Xue with her.
Her uncle has been watching her grow up since she was born. Because they live relatively close together, whenever her parents are away for business and Lin Yi needs care, she will stay at Uncle Lin Ruiming's house.
Her uncle was a kind and kind person, and he treated her very well, as he always had.
Until that day, that night that changed the fate of all of them, a beast tore off the sanctimonious coat and showed its fangs.
Maybe because of drinking some wine, or maybe because of the blow in life, the man lost his mind. He stretched out his claws on the two girls who were staying in his house.
A fight ensued.
Dan Xue was frightened. She jumped out of the window and escaped when her uncle was about to catch up with Lin Yi. She ran along the night street for nearly a mile before meeting the first pedestrian, crying and asking for help.
When the sheriff followed her back to the house, Lin Yi was already dead.
The cause of death was a heavy blow to the head with a blunt object. However, the murder weapon was not found, and it is speculated that it may have been taken away by the murderer.
Lin Ruiming also disappeared from the room. Obviously, he accidentally killed his niece during the scuffle. He realized that he had caused a big trouble, so he ran away before his niece's friend brought someone back.
But it didn't take long for him to be caught. When the Sheriff's Department caught him, he was preparing to escape from the city while avoiding sight. He insisted that he was innocent, but almost all criminals said so. In the face of conclusive evidence
The client's one-sided words were meaningless, and he was sentenced.
Luo Yajun could not get any more new clues from these old files. Although there were many discrepancies between the file records and the current reality, he knew one thing, that is, DNA does not lie.
So that was the most likely explanation he could come up with.
