wake of the wild

The dense fog that covered the sky and the sun was completely silent.

Consciousness turned into a gust of wind, swirling in the mist, without knowing where it came from or where it was going.

Hu Lingyu knew that he was lost in the chaotic world of suspended animation like countless times before.But it seemed different, because in the depths of the mist, there was a slow and rhythmic sound faintly.

Boom, boom, boom...

It seems to be beating drums, and it seems that someone is leading the way.

Hu Lingyu followed the voice, and finally drifted to the end of the thick fog, the chaos was dispersed, and everything was clear.

Under the bright sunshine, the Animal Control Bureau is as busy as ever.

The sound of the drum is still there, and it started at an unknown time, becoming very close, as if it was in his own body.

Hu Lingyu bowed his head.

Can't see anything, he has no entity in this world at all, it may be just a piece of consciousness, a mass of energy, or other more mysterious existence.

But the moment he bowed his head, he suddenly realized that it was his own heartbeat.

The little fox in suspended animation has a slow and weak heartbeat, but still refuses to give up searching.

"Revisiting the old place", Hu Lingyu was much more proficient than last time, leaning over and rushing in through the wall, directly to the archives room.

The last time Hu Lingyu searched for information, the time when he found the file was before he fell into the sea and was reborn in his previous life, because the mastermind behind Nirvana had not been found at that time, so the files he could find were only the backbone of Nirvana and most of the strongholds that had been cracked .

This time he looked at the latest file first, and sure enough, it was the same time as last time.

So no matter whether Xie Simang is related to Nirvana or not, at least in the Animal Control Bureau, he has no criminal record, and the files left in the bureau can only be management files that every awakened animal will be registered in the register.

Thinking of this, Hu Lingyu skipped the case files that received a lot of Nirvana information last time, and started searching from the outermost part of the file room, the lycanthropist file area with the lowest viewing authority requirements.

At this time, Hu Lingyu will praise the colleagues in the archives room for their due diligence. Although the daily work is completed in the information system, the paper files are still backed up in an orderly manner. According to Xie Simang's name, gender, age and other identity information, Hu Lingyu almost I found this professor of psychology without any detours.

Name: Xie Simang

Sex: Male

Family: Whale Shark

date of birth:……

The file format is the same, and the record content is quite satisfactory.

until--

In 2XX0, he was admitted to the Fourth Veterinary Awakening University, majoring in veterinary medicine.

In 2XX1, I transferred to the second year of Veterinary Investigation.

In 2XX2, he was promoted to the third grade of veterinary investigation.

In 2XX5, due to failing to meet the professional physical examination standards, he repeatedly repeated grades, resulting in world-weary emotions, and attempted suicide by jumping off a building. After recovery, he transferred to the major of veterinary psychology.

Graduated in 2XX7...

In just a few lines, the amount of information explodes.

Hu Lingyu's mind was blank for a moment, not only because of Xie Simang's tortuous and difficult study path, but also because he never thought that the story that Wang Zexuan used to scare people as a campus legend was actually true.

[I heard that there used to be a senior who was very good in cultural subjects, but he was not good at subjects. He was almost eliminated in the physical examination, and later he got into the investigative department because of his strong written test results...]

[Then it was a tragedy... He had to make up the physical test several times every semester, and he stumbled to the third grade. After that, he couldn't pass no matter how many make-up exams... Finally, when he was repeated until the third year, he had a mental breakdown and jumped off the building directly... ...]

The truth of Xie Simang's three-year delay in graduation finally became clear, but the chatting words left in the file may be unbearable for the person concerned.

The whale shark, a seemingly ferocious behemoth, is actually a gentle giant that lives by eating plankton.Such animals may be able to protect themselves in the ocean, but such families and genera have no advantage in the competition of humans on land.

After regaining consciousness, Hu Lingyu refocused and quickly browsed the second half of the file.

After graduating from a bachelor's degree, Xie Simang's life has gone all the way to the Kangzhuang Avenue. He has a master's degree, a doctorate degree, taught, published academic achievements, and won various honors. He can't be said to be excellent, he can only be said to be perfect.

Even the gloomy setbacks of those years, under the light of the second half, are more like episodes and embellishments on the road to success.

Going through Xie Simang's file from beginning to end again, and confirmed that it was all in his mind, Hu Lingyu ended the investigation, but he still couldn't draw a conclusion about Xie Simang.

Judging from the files alone, except for the fact that he failed to jump off a building because of his major in investigative studies, everything else is consistent with the publicly available information on the Internet.But it was this special experience that made it difficult for him to put this person into the safe zone.

The matter about Xie Simang was put on hold for the time being, and Hu Lingyu, following the tradition of "everyone is here", decided to look for the file of the attempted theft of the fourth largest Awakening Day celebration mist specimen that year.

Although it was unsuccessful, there must be relevant information if the case is filed. No matter the transcript or on-site investigation, it can restore the crime process of the theft to a certain extent.

Is what he is looking for the theft and crime history in his previous life?

No.

It is the anti-theft arrest strategy in this life!

Theft, theft, theft... the little fox muttered, and shuttled quickly through the file racks in the theft case. Although the year was clearly marked on the file, which saved him a lot of time, it couldn't handle the huge number of cases. Youhun Fox was also so exhausted that his wits disappeared.

After an unknown period of time, Hu Lingyu's heartbeat became louder and louder, until finally the sound left his body and spread over the Beast Control Bureau, as if the whole world was vibrating at the frequency of the heart.

Hu Lingyu knew that there was no time, but he was not reconciled, and thought about finding another file, just one.

Finally, the two key words "fog specimen" and "theft" rushed into his field of vision.

Hu Lingyu stopped immediately, and the sealed file quickly became transparent in his eyes, and the contents were clearly visible.

A few seconds later, Hu Lingyu's eyes widened.

……

The fourth largest, Veterinary Medicine Building.

The sudden electric sparks exploded in the darkness not far outside the building, like a huge blue fireworks, reflecting the surroundings as bright as day.

Luo Bing in the sample room heard something wrong with the sound coming from a distance, but before he could think about it, the sample room was powered off without warning.

The field of vision was dark for a moment, and even the moonlight could not penetrate the windowless sample room.

"Captain, the entire medical building has been cut off!" An urgent report from the action team came from the in-ear communicator.

Luo Bing stood motionless in the darkness, and asked calmly, "Where's the backup generator?"

Places like medical buildings that need 24-hour power supply for various equipment such as low-temperature refrigeration and constant temperature cultivation must have backup power generation after a power outage.

Team member: "It's all destroyed, Captain..."

Before the words in the communicator were finished, Luo Bing heard clearly with the other ear that the metal cover blocking the drain in the sink in the rear corner was pushed open.

"According to the original plan." Luo Bing lowered his voice and quickly conveyed his meaning to the team members, then turned around and focused on his guard.

There was a slight "clang", and it was pushed aside by the opened metal cover.

Luo Bing reached out to his waist and took out the pistol, silently and neatly.

Among the three who escaped in the previous siege, only one of the squirrel family was able to slip through the narrow drain after turning into a beast—— According to the information provided by Lu Qi, it was code-named "Nut".

In the extreme darkness, Luo Bing pricked up his ears, and heard the little thing jump twice, judging by the distance, it was still around the sink.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, the sound of bones changing suddenly, at the same time, a gust of wind rushed towards Luo Bing's face.

It is almost impossible to launch an attack before the animalization is completely over, because the power of the wild will be divided between two things going on at the same time, so that neither end is at its best.

But right now Luo Bing was not allowed to think too much, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The ferocity of these guys has been seen in the siege just now, and several action team brothers were injured. Luo Bing knew very well that any slight hesitation might give the opponent a chance to counterattack.

"boom--"

It wasn't the gunshot, but the muffled sound of the collision.

The opponent's speed was far beyond Luo Bing's expectations, and he slammed into him at the last moment before he pulled the trigger.

The incredible speed and terrifying impact directly sent Luo Bing flying.

Luo Bing never thought in his life that a wolf of his own could knock a squirrel into the air.

But the action captain is not a vegetarian either. He lost his balance for a moment, hugged the squirrel tightly, and wanted to fly with everyone.

"Boom-"

It hit the wall firmly, Luo Bing was on top, making the squirrel a meat pad.

"Hmm..." Nut groaned in pain, a hoarse male voice.

"Don't move!" In the darkness, Luo Bing pressed the pistol still tightly to the man's chin, and at the same time took out a miniature flashlight with his other hand to light it up, aiming at the squirrel like a searchlight.

In the cold light, a sly face, 25 years old, with two typical red squirrel ears on top of his head, erect and covered with fluff.

"Captain Luo," the strong light caused the squirrel to squint its eyes, pretending to be scared by the gun, "don't get excited, be careful of fire."

"Where are the others?" Luo Bing asked.

The squirrel exhausted all its strength, as if it didn't intend to resist any more, and asked nonchalantly, "How can anyone else be caught by you?"

Luo Bing approached with all his strength, pushing him against the wall again: "Don't play tricks with me, where's the ostentation and sharpness?"

Squirrel's expression gradually became vicious: "Even the code name is so clear, I'm really curious, who told the secret?"

Luo Bing suppressed his temper and tried his best to calm down. With years of experience, he knew that this was a kind of stuff that was not easy to get into. In this situation, he couldn't ask anything at all.

Right now, the only thing he can do is ask the brother to hurry up and take the man away. He will continue to sit here and wait. As long as the mist sample is there, he is not afraid that the other two guys will not come.

Just as he was about to contact the action team, Luo Bing suddenly noticed that the squirrel had been staring at his ear from the very beginning.

Those eyes were sticky and wandering like snakes, even though Luo Bing had experienced many battles, he also had goosebumps.

"Captain Luo, your wolf ears are so beautiful." The squirrel's eyes flickered strangely, as if wishing to cut off those ears for himself.

Luo Bing had seen this look before, during the interrogation of black and white.

That is the extreme longing of the weaker species to become stronger, distorted, crazy, regardless of the cost.

"Speaking of which," Squirrel suddenly swept away his madness, regained his composure, tilted his head and asked Luo Bing, "Captain Luo and I have been chatting for a long time, and no one else has come to help. Is it because they are protecting the real fog?" sample?"

Luo Bing's heart sank, it's not good.

He used "personal protection" to prove that the real fog sample is here, in the jar behind him, but these guys predicted his prediction!

Luo Bing: "Team four—"

In-ear communicator: "Team Luo!"

"boom--"

The sound at both ends of the communication and the loud noise outside the building occurred almost simultaneously in the three parties.

The team members at the other end of the communicator didn't care about more, and reported the situation in one breath: "The fog sample was taken away. The hedgehog got a truck from nowhere. He rushed out of the school with the sample. We are afraid of hurting the students. Dare to shoot, Brother Li and the others are chasing..."

"Targets!" Luo Bing gritted his teeth and growled, "Targets are set up at every intersection, and they must not be allowed to take away the fog!"

Behind the exhibition hall, pine forest.

Hu Lingyu woke up suddenly, and grabbed Lu Qi beside him: "No, I made a mistake!"

Lu Qi: "Did you see it this time?"

Hu Lingyu nodded vigorously, and said quickly: "Xie Simang took the exam by major, not psychology, but detective department. Later, he failed the physical test, kept grades, and attempted suicide by jumping off a building before turning to a beast mentality."

Lu Qi's expression changed slightly: "The legendary senior of the investigation department who kept repeating grades and finally jumped off the building..."

Hu Lingyu shook his head: "It's not a legend, it should be Xie Simang."

Lu Qi was stunned, but he became suspicious again: "You just said that you made a mistake..."

"Yes, it was a big mistake," Hu Lingyu was extremely annoyed, "After the celebration of the Awakening Day ended, gossip spread wildly about the attempted theft of the fog sample, and I really thought it was an attempt."

Lu Qi frowned: "Isn't it?"

Hu Lingyu: "No." The information he saw at the last moment before waking up was vivid in his mind, "The fog sample was really stolen. The school felt shameless and didn't want to make it public, so they asked the Animal Control Bureau to cooperate and announced that the theft was attempted. Only the Beast Control Bureau and the Veterinary Awakening University Alliance know...we have to do something, or it will be too late!"

Lu Qiwang turned towards the medical building: "I'm afraid it's too late."

The veterinary medicine building was completely dark, as if it had melted into the night, but the noisy and chaotic voices intensified, as if an invisible fire was burning in the building.

Hu Lingyu was shocked suddenly, and asked Lu Qi eagerly as if remembering something: "Did you hear the sound of the truck when I was suspended animation just now?"

"Truck?" Lu Qi vaguely remembered, "I seem to have heard something..."

Hu Lingyu: "When, how long has it been?"

"Five or six minutes?" Lu Qi was not sure, "It's not long anyway."

The little fox's face lit up suddenly, and his eyes were burning: "Then it's too late, it's definitely too late!"
