Chapter 310: Not a dead man

This uninvited guest was none other than Congressman Heston, who was revealed to be beheaded by the executioner on the street. No wonder there was such a reaction at the scene.

Heston was not only the first victim, but also the one with the highest status. Therefore, the post-mortem examination could not be careless. There was no doubt that it was Heston who died at that time. So who was the person in front of him?

Congressman Heston was also followed by a large number of people from the security team. They surrounded the door and did not dare to come forward. Their expressions were quite complicated.

"He...this one passed the ID detection device at the entrance to the building."

A team member spoke up to break the deadlock.

Naturally, an important institution like the security team is not one where anyone can come and go at will. There is a detection device at the gate, driven by magic, and the level is extremely high. As long as you pass through the gate, you can detect whether you are an insider.

And it can identify people.

Of course, Representative Heston also has the right to enter and leave the security team. His information exists in this system. He also scared a lot of people when he entered. Everyone knew that he was dead, but according to the test results, he was Haiston.

Congressman Stone.

Therefore, the team members did not stop him and allowed him to come to the meeting site.

Through the TV, Ren could also hear the whispers of people at the scene: "Could it be the magic of the undead?"

"It's easy to tell whether it's undead." Heston said as he walked towards the podium, "I can accept any test."

.......

Captain Seven closed the document in his hand tightly with a straight face.

"I don't accept this report!"

The meeting was over, and Congressman Heston was taken for a large number of tests. The document in the hands of the seventh captain now is the result. More than a dozen tests, without exception, confirmed that the person was a real congressman.

Everyone present here is from the security team, but they all look like they have seen a ghost. They have never encountered this kind of situation.

"Actually, more than just these tests, his memory is also impeccable. He remembers everything that happened during his lifetime and can't find any loopholes. How should we treat him?"

"How to treat him?" Captain Seven patted the table: "Everyone watched him die with their own eyes. I picked up his head with my own hands. I don't recognize him as Congressman Heston!"

In fact, not only Captain Seven, the outside world is also debating endlessly about the resurrected Heston.

The contradiction is that if a dead person that everyone knows is dead cannot be detected as dead by any known method, should he be regarded as dead?

Most people definitely don't accept it. Resurrecting the dead is considered an evil act. However, it is now found that Senator Heston does not have any characteristics of the undead, and he has made it clear that he will take over the work of the Congressman again as soon as possible.

There were many voices of opposition, but it was of no use. Only now did Captain Seven realize that he had overlooked one thing. Because they were so busy with the executioner's affairs, he had not realized before that after the death of Representative Heston, it seemed that something had gone wrong.

It was all in disarray and nothing was done, not even an official obituary.

Under normal circumstances, this is not a big problem. Everyone is dead. Regardless of whether there is an official statement or not, his position is definitely vacant.

But this is an abnormal situation, and Heston has been resurrected.

Therefore, nominally speaking, he does still occupy the position of a member of Parliament.

According to the rules, Councilor Heston can be reinstated at any time without even seeking the opinions of others.

Captain Seven's plan was completely disrupted. He had to find evidence to prove that the dead man everyone knew was indeed a dead man...

What was Ren doing at this time?

He is in Adam's car now.

Heston's resurrection gave him a bad feeling. After learning the test results, he immediately picked up Adam and left the security team headquarters because he thought of a question, would there be other people killed by the executioner?

Will he be resurrected?

Now they were driving to the home of the victim who was hanged from a tree in the park.

Adam kept mumbling along the way:

"It's really a ghost. How can the dead come back to life?"

"Could it be some kind of illusion created by powerful psychic magic?"

"Or is it that someone has secretly developed a new undead spell that can deceive all detection methods?"

"Ren, what if he really wants to continue to be a member of Parliament?"

Ren didn't sleep all night, and he was already very sleepy. Adam almost fell asleep as he was chanting like a mantra, "Ah, you ask me?"

"Yes, you have a lot of ideas."

Ren thought for a while: "Oh, it's very simple. If we chop off Representative Heston's head again, can't we treat him as if he has not been resurrected?"

Adam also thought about it, and then said: "That makes sense! I'll turn around and go back!"

Seeing that Adam was really turning the steering wheel, Ren quickly stopped him.

Although he is also very curious, is killing a dead person illegal? If it counts as destroying a corpse, does cutting off a dead head count as destruction?

.......

Arriving at their destination, the two of them learned from the victim Raj Darrey's only family member, his wife, that Raj had been buried.

So after the two left a phone number, they ran to the cemetery without stopping and found Raj's tombstone.

"There's no problem." Adam walked around the cemetery a few times and came back and said, "There's no sign that anyone dug the grave."

Ren nodded. It seemed that he was overthinking it. If someone wanted to tamper with the corpse and resurrect the person, they should at least dig up the grave.

"Speaking of which, how was Congressman Heston's body disposed of before?"

"It must have been kept in a subordinate organization of the team. It seemed that it had not been touched after it was shipped back and inspected."

Ren frowned and asked curiously: "Isn't this unreasonable? Didn't you think about the aftermath after checking the body? Just leave the body there to dry?"

Adam scratched his head: "It's a little strange, but we usually don't care about the funeral of the deceased. Usually the family can take the body back after checking it. But everyone has been too busy recently, and it seems that everyone has forgotten this matter.

Damn it, someone probably tampered with the congressman's body during this period. Is there a mole in our team? Renn, let's go back immediately and check who else's body has not been claimed."

Ren vaguely felt as if he had grasped something. There was an idea swirling in his brain, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

He took one last look at Raj's grave and nodded. Adam's guess was indeed possible.

So the two people went around in circles, drove back to the security team, found the department where the corpses were kept, and asked about the whereabouts of each victim. As a result, except for the most recent victim, all the others were taken away by their family members.

There is nothing wrong with this one.

Adam began to look up and down at the people in the autopsy department, staring at everyone he saw for a long time, which made these people confused.

Renn looked at the blue light flowing and entwining on the corpse in front of him, wondering.
