abnormal sea area

-Aban fire wedge-

On the surface of the pitch-black sea, a mass of fire suddenly sprang up.

Fire envelops the small fishing boat, its awning burned through, revealing a howling figure in the boat.

The ship was in the sea, in the fire, and the blood-curdling screams came one after another.The water failed to suppress the fire, so the fire floated vigorously on the surface of the water, burning more and more intensely, lighting up most of the dark sky.

The alarmed people ran from the shore, and the sound of shouting spread far to the sea.

"...Aban Huo!" Someone yelled, "It's Aban Huo! Aban is back for revenge!"

There was a strong smell of kerosene from the fire, and the screams had disappeared.

Soon someone reminded: "Don't talk nonsense! Someone set fire! Whose boat? Hey! Whose boat! Is there anyone else on board!"

The tide is ebbing.The tide moved away from the land, and carried the burning boat away from the shouting people.

The starlight is thin and the moonlight is harsh.A few naked backs suddenly appeared on the sea surface, full of water, and shone silvery by the moon.

Creatures with human bodies and fishtails emerged from the sea.Fire also alarmed these silent creatures.They circled the burning boat continuously, pouring water on the boat one by one, and flicking their fish tails to try to extinguish the fire.

At dawn, the mermaids disappeared into the sea.Finally, the fire gradually died down, and the almost completely burned boat was pushed to the shore by the mermaid and ran aground on the sand.

Mermaids dare not stay, there are many dangerous things on the shore, which will paralyze or kill them.People ignored these silent monsters and ran towards the boat one after another.

In the boat was a charred corpse, but nothing else.

This is the seventh person who has died in this small city this year.

-Aban fire-

The day after Xie Zijing was discharged from the hospital, Qin Ge and the chief of the criminal investigation department were called to the office by Gao Tianyue.

Gao Tianyue first asked him about Xie Zijing's recovery.Qin Ge told him frankly that Xie Zijing's "sea area" had returned to normal, and he traced back to what happened that night in Luquan.

The three of them compared the information they had obtained, and almost restored all the facts of the year.

The only question now is what happened to the No. [-] warehouse under Luquan that night.

"The Special Management Committee has not known that Zhou You has escaped for so many years. This problem is very serious." Gao Tianyue said, "If No. [-] Warehouse is really dedicated to detaining special criminals, then its overall management is too lax."

The chief of the criminal investigation department replied: "This is unreasonable."

"So within the special management committee, there must have been some problems that they were caught off guard." Gao Tianyue looked at Qin Ge, "Qin Ge, don't worry about this. Cai Yi told me so many things, he is looking for us help. The secret of No. [-] Warehouse is firmly in the hands of certain people. These people are not from the same faction as Cai Yi...or the forces behind Cai Yi. And Cai Yi and the others will definitely be suppressed. The so-called investigation by the Commission may not necessarily be able to find out the truth that satisfies them in the end."

Qin Ge nodded: "I understand. Cai Yi is reminding us that if we want to know the secret of No. [-] warehouse, we must go deep into No. [-] warehouse. And the entrance of No. [-] warehouse is only known to those who have been there."

"...Jiang Yong." The chief of the criminal investigation department looked at the information in front of him, "Thank you, my diving partner, he has been to No. [-] warehouse many times."

Jiang Yong's file has his photo posted on it.More than ten years ago, he was a steady and calm middle-aged man.

At the bottom of the file, in the "Medical History Records", there is a line clearly written: due to severe schizophrenia (the main symptom is affective disorder), abnormal behavior, memory disorder, and loss of work ability.

The chief of the criminal investigation department looked at Qin Ge: "schizophrenia... this is your field of expertise."

Another abnormal sentinel in the "sea area".Qin Ge wanted to find the way to enter No. [-] warehouse from Jiang Yong's disordered memory.

"Where is Jiang Yong?" Gao Tianyue asked, "Did Lei Chi find out?"

"A small coastal city." The Chief of the Criminal Investigation Section said, "It's the place where you plan to send Qin Ge on a business trip."

Qin Ge was taken aback when he heard the words: "Business trip?"

"The Special Human Management Association of the United States has sent several representatives to communicate with us." Gao Tianyue said, "Among them is a Quan slave whose research work is related to special humans and special creatures in coastal areas. , so I thought of our southern coastal inspection here. You can take him there and be a guide."

Qin Ge: "... Quan Nu... It's very troublesome."

"What are you looking at?" Lei Chi passed by Xiao Liu, looked at him strangely, and turned to look at his computer screen, "Aren't you afraid that your girlfriend will be jealous if you stare at a man in a daze?"

Xiao Liu looked up at him with a dazed expression.

"Lei Zu, I have been in the crisis office for several years, and this is the first time I have the opportunity to meet Quan Nu."

As soon as he said these words, all the men and women in the office pricked up their ears: "Quan Nu? Another Quan Nu is here?"

Everyone ran to Xiao Liu's side one after another, lying on him to look at the Quan Nu file displayed on the computer screen.

It has been nearly 20 years since Quan Nu came to China last time. Younger people can only see Quan Nu in materials and videos, and those who are a little older cannot squeeze in. They hold teacups and say to each other with vicissitudes of life. Oh, I didn't expect to see Quan Nu in my lifetime" and other words.

Lei Chi frowned, looking at the photo of the blond young man on the electronic file.

Quan Nu is a special human being that only lives in Yellowstone National Park in the United States. The number is very small, and all of them are males. Due to their special reproductive methods, they have long been regarded as extremely precious special human beings.They rely on hot springs to survive and cannot leave the surroundings of hot springs for long periods of time.Fortunately, in recent years, technology has made great progress. Quan Nu has been able to leave Huangshi for more than 30 days if he has made corresponding preparations and carried certain tools.

"Isn't he just a foreigner?" Lei Chi said.

"But he is too good-looking..." Xiao Liu muttered dazedly, "This photo is fake, how is it possible..."

The handsome young man in the photo has long, soft and beautiful golden hair.He tied his hair back, revealing an almost perfect face.The blue eyes seem to be filled with eternal swaying water, and there is a faint smile on the corner of the mouth, which is gentle and affectionate.

Lei Chi thought, Bai Xiaoyuan is more beautiful, right?

Of course he also knows that his aesthetics are not correct.

"When Quan Nu came to us for an international conference, there were some small disturbances." The chief of the criminal investigation department also came out with a tea mug, telling a story, "The conference arranged for him and the semi-zombified human representative Sitting together, when the live broadcast screen came out, it was really shocking. Later, the semi-zombified human beings protested collectively, saying that the seating arrangement of the conference was unreasonable, and Quan Nu was arranged next to the semi-zombie, which was clearly for comparison and right An insult from a half-zombie."

Lei Chi was dumbfounded: "Isn't it?!"

Section Chief: "On the last day of the conference, the pressure of public opinion was too great. The organizer had to change Quan Nu and sit with the Sentinel guide. But Leo refused. He took his name tag and must sit. Next to the half-zombified human representative. He also hugged and kissed the half-zombified human representative, and that scene is very classic."

Xiao Liu: "This is too much, are you intentionally trying to annoy people?"

Section Chief: "That's not true. Leo is very sincere. He said that beauty and ugliness are skins, and these are not important. The half-zombified human representative is a well-known naturalist, and the two became good friends later. "

Lei Chi listened and felt something was wrong: "Leo? The spring slave was called Leo back then, and now this one is also called Leo. They are the same person? No, it's been 20 years, why isn't he old?"

Section Chief: "It's not that you're not old, it's that you're dead and reborn."

The werewolf was shocked. He looked at the section chief and then at Xiao Liu.He has no reserve of knowledge in this area.

"The birth and death of spring slaves depend on hot springs. Their lives are very short. When they know that they are about to die, they will walk into the hot springs and completely melt in the hot springs. When the stage of ablation is over, the hot springs will be reborn. An almost identical spring slave, but this is already a brand new life. Although their genetic information is completely identical, but the brain cells have been decomposed and reconstructed, without any memory of the past, they are a completely new person." Xiao Liu said , "Whether Quan Nu is considered a human being has always been controversial. Their reproductive and reproductive methods are different from all human beings. But the gene sequence is almost the same as that of human beings."

Lei Chi sighed: "It's really complicated. If I make friends with Quan Nu, after he dies and is reborn, won't he forget me?"

"That's right." Xiao Liu said, "So after the birth of Quan Nu, many literary and artistic works will use this characteristic of Quan Nu to diverge. Of course, without exception, they are all tragedies."

Lei Chi: "Liu, don't fall in love with Quan Nu."

Xiao Liu: "I'm about to get married, Lei Zu. I just appreciate it! Everyone will take a second look at beautiful things, right?"

Lei Chi nodded, now he wanted to go to the Dispensation Department to see Bai Xiaoyuan again.

"Section Chief." But he suddenly thought of something else, "Is this Quan Nu accompanied by Qin Ge to investigate in the south?"

The section chief nodded.

Lei Chi: "...What about Xie Zijing?"

The section chief was taken aback, then immediately looked around: "Where is Xie Zijing?! Didn't he report to the criminal investigation department today!"

Xie Zijing picked up a suspiciously yellow pickled radish in the dispensing department.

"Is this really edible?" He was dubious.

Bai Xiaoyuan's sand cat was sitting in front of him. Hearing this, he fiercely slammed his small paws on the table: Meow!

Bai Xiaoyuan: "Eat it, it's just a little bit salty, it won't kill you."

Tang Cuo: "Sister Bai, you are too cruel. Lei Chi pays you good sugar and cakes every day, and you use this kind of salty radish to deal with people."

Bai Xiaoyuan: "I didn't cook it for him!"

Tang Cuo was most afraid of Bai Xiaoyuan's anger, so he quickly picked one and threw it into his mouth.

Salty, too salty.He simply suspected that this carrot was a fitness hunk. He had just finished many sets of strength training, and his whole body was covered with a thick layer of salty sweat.

Xie Zijing ate with gusto. "Bai Xiaoyuan knows how to cook, even though it's unpalatable." After eating the radish, he grabbed a pen and wrote a line in a small notebook.

During the hospitalization, both Bai Xiaoyuan and Tang Cuo visited him.He was already quite familiar with the two of them, and he wrote down many things one after another in the small notebook.

"Aren't you going to report?" Bai Xiaoyuan reminded him, "Xie Zijing, it's 11:30."

Xie Zijing thought for a while: "Where's Qin Ge? I didn't see him today."

This was his first day back in the crisis office, and Qin Ge hadn't been seen all morning.

In the hospital, Qin Ge patrolled his "sea area" many times, and the memories of the past were picked up bit by bit.The only thing that was still uncertain was his feelings for Qin Ge and his past work in the transfer department.

It's like a student who is about to take an exam, reopens the book, and finds that every line has been seen and understood, but he can't understand it.

Qin Ge only knew that he was clutching the small notebook all day long, but he didn't know what was written in the notebook.Xie Zijing thought he was curious, but Qin Ge wouldn't ask.

"You, don't hang around in front of Qin Ge all day long." Bai Xiaoyuan said, "He will feel even sadder seeing you like this."

The computer beeped, and it was a new reminder in the system.

Bai Xiaoyuan clicked on the reminder: "Huh? There is an official document—huh?! Quan Nu?!"

Tang Cuo jumped up immediately: "What what?"

He leaned over to Bai Xiaoyuan, and the two of them stared at the screen with the same unbelievable expression: "Quan Nu is coming to Beijing! Oh no, he's going to the south for research. Accompanying person... Qin Ge?"

Xie Zijing immediately raised his head when he heard the words: "... Quan slave? Who is it?"

He has heard of it, but he has never seen it, and because he is a special human being from another country, and China does not have it, he never takes it to heart.

Bai Xiaoyuan and Tang Cuo had dreamy trance expressions on their faces.

"It's very good-looking, very beautiful." Bai Xiaoyuan said, "It is said that people who repost Quan Nu's photos can find a good-looking boyfriend within 24 hours."

Tang Cuo's words suddenly stuck in his throat: "..."

Xie Zijing frowned slightly: "Qin Ge accompany him? Just the two of you?"

Bai Xiaoyuan and Tang Cuo nodded again and again.

Xie Zijing: "Is Quan Nu the most beautiful special human being?"

Bai Xiaoyuan and Tang Cuo nodded again.
