Xu Chunliang silently recalled the last scene when he saw Zheng Pei'an on the overpass. When he talked to himself on the phone, Zheng Pei'an's mental state was already very abnormal. There are many ways to control a person's consciousness. I wonder what method the mastermind behind the scenes used?
Xu Chunliang looked at the screens aside. One of the screens displayed Zheng Pei'an's head CT film. Although Xu Chunliang didn't know much about the image, he always felt familiar when he saw this film. He thought of Mr. Ye.
There was a space inside the skull formed by insect eggs, and he was diagnosed as a brain tumor by the hospital. Later, he helped Mr. Ye relieve his pain.
This picture of Zheng Pei'an is somewhat similar to the CT picture of Mr. Ye, but Zheng Pei'an has more brain lesions. Could it be that he was also forced to take poisons such as Sanyin Naohao Pills? If this is the case, it can explain his death.
The previous series of abnormal behavior.
The two forensic doctors who were conducting a craniotomy screamed at the same time. Xu Chunliang looked intently and saw dozens of densely packed black bugs crawling out from the opening of Zheng Pei'an's skull. Each bug was about the size of a sesame seed.
Some bugs actually have wings and are about to fly.
Although the two forensic doctors are highly skilled and knowledgeable, this is the first time they have seen such a strange scene.
Xu Chunliang shouted: "Ice!"
Liu Haiyu reacted first and grabbed the ice bucket nearby and poured it decisively into the opening of Zheng Pei'an's head.
Xu Chunliang said: "Brain-eating worms! The suitable environment for survival is the human body. They like to suck the brain. If they get into the nostrils, they will parasitize and hatch in the brain."
Everyone was frightened when they heard this, and the two forensic doctors subconsciously took a step back. Liu Haiyu didn't think it was enough, so he found another ice bucket and poured ice on it.
Dr. Li asked: "What should I do?"
Xu Chunliang said: "It's not a big problem. Their activity will decrease as the ambient temperature decreases. If it is lower than the normal body temperature of the human body, they will not survive for more than twenty-four hours."
Xu Jiaxuan thought of a way: "Freeze the body first, so there is no need to take risks."
After Zheng Pei'an's body was frozen and sealed, the autopsy room was disinfected. All personnel involved in the autopsy were strictly disinfected before going to the small conference room to continue the discussion.
Everyone looked at Xu Chunliang, and Dr. Li asked curiously: "Excuse me, did you just say that the bug was called a brain-eating worm?"
Xu Chunliang nodded and said: "I also read from ancient medical books that it is difficult for this kind of bug to survive alone in nature. Generally speaking, it is artificially cultivated. It was once the secret technique of some sects in the ancient world."
Another forensic doctor said: "How could anyone keep such a vicious thing?"
Liu Haiyu said: "I have heard about this. There is a Five Poison Cult that specially raises and cultivates poisons to harm people."
Xu Jiaxuan said: "Did you read it from martial arts novels?"
Liu Haiyu scratched his head in embarrassment, realizing that telling such an anecdote in front of professionals would be ridiculous.
Xu Chunliang said: "What is written in martial arts novels may not necessarily be true. Have you ever heard of seeding Gu?"
Several people nodded at the same time.
Xu Chunliang said: "It can be regarded as a kind of Gu. After being parasitized in the brain by this kind of bug, as they continue to ovulate and absorb nutrients from the brain, people will become insane. A skilled Gu master can even accurately
Manipulate the brain area where the Gu is parasitic to control the behavioral direction of the host and issue various instructions."
Xu Jiaxuan thought to himself, my son knows so much. I am proud of him, but also feel a little confused. Is this all the secret knowledge of our old Xu family? Thinking of my father Xu Jiaxuan who passed away, I felt sad. It was all my fault.
The old man has been implicated.
Liu Haiyu asked: "You mean, Zheng Pei'an is controlled by someone?"
Xu Chunliang nodded. Zheng Pei'an should have tried to fight against the Gu insects, but he still failed. He glanced at his father. What kind of opponent did Lao Xu provoke? At the same time, another doubt arose in his mind. How did Chen Biyuan...
Dead? Is there any connection between this series of events and the crystal pendant?
After leaving the secret headquarters, the father and son returned to the funeral parlor. Xu Jiaxuan did not drive in immediately, but stopped the car at the door, lit a cigarette, and whispered: "I plan to incinerate your grandfather's body tomorrow, and then
I want to escort his ashes back to Dongzhou. I don’t want to make any big fuss and let the old man be buried as soon as possible.”
Xu Chunliang said: "It's up to you."
Xu Jiaxuan sighed and said, "I am sorry for you."
Xu Chunliang said: "Now I just want to find the mastermind as soon as possible."
"I want, too."
Xu Chunliang stared into his father's eyes: "Don't you even know who you have offended?"
Xu Jiaxuan said: "There is probably a direction, Chunliang, what I am most worried about now is your safety. They will definitely deal with you. You must be more careful."
Xu Chunliang sneered: "Then let them come here."
Xu Jiaxuan pondered for a moment and said, "I have asked Old Liu to recommend you to join our department."
Xu Chunliang said disdainfully: "I'm not interested."
Xu Jiaxuan said: "I'm not asking you to do anything, I'm just giving you a special identity in this way. This is not just to protect you. If, I mean, if, you encounter any trouble, this secret identity is equivalent to a gold medal to avoid death.
."
Xu Chunliang understood what he meant and asked, "What if I kill someone?"
Xu Jiaxuan said: "It depends on who you are killing. When you meet the person who deserves to be killed, this status is equivalent to a killing license."
Xu Chunliang asked: "Have you ever killed anyone?"
Xu Jiaxuan was silent for a moment and nodded: "Chunliang, I leave grandpa's affairs to you."
"What? Are you planning to leave?" Xu Chunliang frowned. Although he knew that Xu Jiaxuan must have left for a reason, as a son of a man, he still felt a little unkind before leaving after his father's funeral.
Xu Jiaxuan said: "I'll leave tonight, I have a mission."
Xu Chunliang was keenly aware of his intention: "Do you already know who did it?"
Xu Jiaxuan shook his head: "No, I have a mission and I can't delay for too long."
Xu Chunliang said: "Can't you wait until grandpa's funeral is over before leaving?"
Xu Jiaxuan said: "No." He stubbed out the cigarette butt and threw it into the trash can aside. He stretched out his hands and patted Xu Chunliang's shoulders: "When you grow up, I believe you have the ability to face the world alone. Very soon."
I'm sorry for putting you through so much, and I'm sorry that I couldn't grow up with you."
Xu Chunliang has never been very fond of sensational words, but this time he was a little touched. He knew very well that Xu Changshan's death had a great impact on Xu Jiaxuan. Xu Jiaxuan's hurried departure may be related to the death of the old man, or maybe he was just to perform a secret mission
, but Xu Chunliang suddenly had a feeling that Xu Jiaxuan would probably not come back for a long time.
Xu Jiaxuan only told Xu Chunliang this time. Before leaving, he also expressed his attitude towards the distribution of the old man's inheritance. All of Xu Changshan's property was fairly divided into three parts and shared equally by the three siblings. This even included the property that the old man purchased in the name of Xu Chunliang.
Xu Jiaxuan's original intention was to avoid disputes as much as possible in the store, and he also believed in his son's structure and ability.
Although the old man stated many times before his death that he would leave all his property to his precious grandson, Xu Jiaxuan believed that this was inappropriate.
Xu Chunliang didn't have any objections. He was not short of money, and his two aunts also had the same inheritance rights.
After Xu Jiaxuan left, Xu Chunliang took care of the cremation procedures for his grandfather. As for the funeral, he still took the ashes back to Dongzhou for burial.
Lu Ming returned to Dongzhou first to help prepare. Xu Chunliang had to escort his grandfather's ashes back in the afternoon after the cremation. Lu Qi accompanied him throughout the journey.
Although Xu Chunliang repeatedly confessed, the news of his grandfather's death still spread like wildfire. First, Gao Xinhua's call came. It was true that Zheng Pei'an had resigned from Changxing, but the police still went to his unit for a routine investigation. Gao Xinhua learned that
After hearing the news that Mr. Xu and Zheng Pei'an had died, Gao Xinhua was very sad after asking Xu Chunliang for confirmation. He informed his grandfather in the capital.
Ever since the news spread, Xu Chunliang's cell phone has almost never stopped.
When his grandfather's body was sent to be incinerated, Xu Chunliang sat silently in the waiting area and waited. Su Qing and Zhen Chun were responsible for accompanying his two aunts. The children of his eldest aunt Xu Jia'an had not yet arrived, and they had been sent directly to Dongzhou.
Xu Chunliang looked at the message on the LED light sign. His grandfather just disappeared. Such a kind and generous old man gave all his love to his precious grandson, but he suffered such a bad luck. What made Xu Chunliang difficult to understand was that this was not the case.
An accident turned into a conspiracy, and he would not let it go. He would not let go of anyone involved in this conspiracy.
Lu Qi reminded Xu Chunliang that someone was coming. Xu Chunliang looked up, but it was Zhou Deming. Zhou Deming was Zhen Chun's boyfriend. He hurried over after hearing about it.
Zhou Deming came to Xu Chunliang, held his hand and said, "Chunliang, why didn't you tell me the news I just got this morning?"
Xu Chunliang said: "I don't plan to make a big deal out of it. I will take my grandfather's ashes back to Dongzhou immediately after the cremation."
Zhou Deming said: "My dad is waiting for news, so I'll tell him."
Xu Chunliang said: "Secretary Zhou is so busy at work, so don't disturb him."
Zhou Deming said: "That's not possible, he will definitely have to pass."
At this time, another person came, Sui Dongjun, a professor from Nanjiang University. Sui Dongjun glanced at Xu Chunliang and went straight to Xu Jiawen.
Xu Jiawen completely blamed himself for the death of his father and Zheng Pei'an, and he has been feeling deep self-blame for the past two days.
Sui Dongjun comforted her a few words, and suddenly heard someone behind him say: "Professor Sui, can we chat for a few words?"
Sui Dongjun looked up and saw Xu Chunliang's friend Lu Qi.
Sui Dongjun smiled and said, "Okay, how can I help you?"
Lu Qi pointed to a deserted place not far away, and Sui Dongjun walked over with him.
Lu Qi handed his business card to Sui Dongjun. Sui Dongjun took the business card and looked at it. Only then did he realize that Lu Qi was also a policeman.
