Yuan Xindi entered the Longzhou Qiaoyan Research Institute as soon as she graduated. Because of her hard work and hard work, she was assigned to the anti-aging acupuncture key project team after the probationary period.

Stem cell anti-aging is one of the hottest directions in the medical and aesthetic industry nowadays. Getting in touch with the core technology of this project is equivalent to entering the most promising field in this industry.Yuan Xindi really wanted to learn more, but the project manager was very vigilant and divided the entire R&D and application process into several parts. Except for him, everyone else only understood the small part in their hands.

Yuan Xindi often took the initiative to stay in the laboratory and work overtime in order to find out more about the situation in other sections.Because she is a newcomer and a girl, everyone is not very wary of her, and she really learned a lot after coming and going.

"It was a brother in charge of animal experiments who gave me the idea of ​​taking medicine to 'preserve' meat rabbits." Yuan Xindi said, "He is a senior who is three years older than me, and I met him in school before. When I was working overtime I often go to his place for a stroll, and take the opportunity to peek at his experimental records. I found that a raw material drug I had passed has the function of activating cells. Just a little injection can keep the experimental animals alive for several months without deterioration. Same time."

"Have you ever seen his experimental animals?" Rong Rui asked her.

"I haven't seen a live one." Yuan Xindi said, "But I have seen him handle the dead body of a rat, and once I saw him handle a few rabbits. He saw that I was curious, and let me touch the dead body of the rabbit. , let me guess how long it has been dead. I said half an hour, but he said it was nine days."

"Nine days? A rabbit that has been dead for nine days, still looks like it just died?"

Yuan Xindi nodded, and said: "He said that by controlling the dosage and timing of the medicine, experimental animals can be 'reborn' within a few days after death, as if they were still alive...but only the body is alive, the brain and internal organs are not. It will resume operation. How to put it, it looks like a biological preservative to me."

So you really took the medicine home secretly and used it as a preservative?Xiao Su couldn't understand her brain circuit.Rong Rui's expression was also a bit indescribable, and he asked, "Did your senior brother explain to you why this phenomenon happened?"

"Yes, he said that this drug is an enzyme that can stimulate the growth of cell telomeres and restart the division mechanism of dying cells that had stopped dividing." Yuan Xindi said, "But he said it very generally, not very specific... Maybe he doesn't know much about it, after all, he's only in charge of animal experiments, and someone else does the cell analysis."

This explanation is very similar to the "telomerase hypothesis" that Xiao Su discussed with Wu Xinyu that day.Rong Rui wrote a few words in the notepad, saying: "So all this is just guesswork by you and your brother, you don't even know if this 'reborn' animal will affect the human body after eating, just look at the laboratory The dead animals are quite fresh, so you just take it for granted that there is no problem with this 'preservative'?"

Yuan Xindi hesitated for a long time before saying: "Yes, it should be... no problem... In fact, if you run a restaurant, who doesn't add ingredients to the dishes? Flavor enhancers, meat tenderizer powder, artificial coloring... How can a hot pot restaurant have the time to cook so much broth? , are all blended with monosodium glutamate. The cost of a skewer of mutton at the barbecue shop is two yuan, which is not enough. I can't even eat it!"

Xiao Su was horrified when he heard that, this girl is too upright, she was cheated by Rongrui and even exposed the secrets of the industry!

How can people eat hot pot and barbecue in the future?

Rong Rui recorded silently without interrupting her.Yuan Xindi talked about several cases that ruined the three views in one breath, as if she felt that it was nothing to commit such a small crime: "Comrade police officer, if you really want to say that you violated the relevant food regulations, there would be countless cases in Longzhou. It’s a good restaurant, not to mention that the additives they use are banned by the state, and the country I use has not yet included it, so it shouldn’t be illegal, right?”

"..." Xiao Su really didn't know whether to call her illiteracy or praise her perfect logic, glanced at Rong Rui, and saw that his hands stopped, as if he couldn't remember.

"Besides, this medicine was originally intended for human use. Our manager said that it has been popular abroad for many years, but it has just been introduced in China." The more Yuan Xindi said, the more reasonable she became. It’s even better if people eat it, right? Maybe it also has the function of anti-aging... prolonging life!”

Shouldn't a pennant be sent to you?Xiao Su silently supported his forehead.Rong Rui finally raised his eyelids, looked at her coldly and said, "This is not up to you, it must be inspected by the relevant department and an authoritative appraisal result will be issued - do you have a sample here?"

Yuan Xindi's face collapsed, and she said helplessly: "No, the company suddenly strengthened its management a while ago and re-regulated the drug management process. I didn't dare to make trouble for myself in the limelight, so I never took that raw drug. And now The weather is getting colder, and a new freezer has been added to the house, so there is no need to do that again."

Rong Rui frowned and said, "When did this happen?"

"It's less than a month, more than 20 days."

"Why did you suddenly strengthen the management? Was there an accident? Or was it discovered that you stole the medicine?"

Yuan Xindi hesitated: "Probably not... I got very little, and no one talked to me. There are gossips that someone leaked technology... But my brother was fined a quarterly bonus. I asked him why , he didn't say anything."

Xiao Su made a rough calculation. More than 20 days ago, wasn't he the one who posted a lottery on Weibo to collect clues to the beasts, and was blessed by Little Police Shield and Piggy Page to forward this passage?Could it be that Yuan Xindi was forced to refrain from acting by scaring the snake by himself?

Rong Rui slowly brought the topic down to business: "You said that the medicine you are using was just imported from abroad? Which foreign country and which company?"

"Sweden, there is a famous anti-aging center called Phoenix." Yuan Xindi blurted out, and then muttered, "Uh... this is not a secret, right? It seems that the company is going to publicize it soon..."

"Propaganda? Are you planning to launch this medicine?" Rong Rui asked.

"Yes." Yuan Xindi said everything she knew, "I heard from my colleagues in the marketing department that the company plans to launch a new type of anti-aging injection through the online platform in the near future, and the approval has almost been completed."

"Online platform?" Rong Rui paused, "Which online platform?"

"It is a newly acquired platform under the company, called 'Xingyue Beauty'." Yuan Xindi said, "It is said that it is dedicated to the integration of the industrial chain. It has all the beauty and health care in the early stage, and now it will be extended to the medical beauty. In order to be a big hit, The company gave them the anti-aging injection program."

The beauty of Xingyue?Xiao Su felt that this name seemed to have been heard somewhere, and it was only recently...

etc!Isn't that the start-up company run by Ding Tianyi and his classmates? !

Xiao Su remembered, the last time Xiao Ran brought Ding Tianyi back to meet his parents, he once chatted with himself about his online platform in the garden, but... it seems that it was not Qiaoyan who bought them, but another company specializing in An e-commerce business.

"The beauty of Xingyue is not a subsidiary of Qiaoyan, right?" Xiao Su interjected doubtfully.

"No, the beauty of Xingyue, like Longzhou Qiaoyan, is a subsidiary of the local e-commerce company 'Flawless'." Yuan Xindi said, seeing his confused face, she explained, "That's right, our Longzhou Qiaoyan , is not a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jingchuan Qiaoyan, but a joint venture company jointly invested by them and Wuxia. The beauty of Xingyue is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wuxia. Can you understand me?

Xiao Su came to a sudden: "Oh, I understand. 'Flawless' and 'Qiaoyan' jointly established 'Longzhou Qiaoyan'. Use 'Flawless' subsidiary 'Xingyue Zhimei' to release and publicize it on their online platform...is that right?"

Yuan Xindi nodded and said: "That's right, you sorted it out very clearly, I was afraid you might get confused, business matters are complicated, and it took me a long time to figure it out before I understood it."

Xiao Su didn't expect this matter to be so complicated. There are actually five companies operating behind a small anti-aging injection... No, in general, it should be three——Zhang Chanjuan's Qiaoyan, Longzhou E-commerce Wuxia , and Phoenix, the copycat anti-aging center in Sweden.

Rongrui asked Yuan Xindi some more details, and I have to say that this girl looks thin and honest, but in fact she has a lot of brains, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger to inquire about a lot of business secrets.She said that the key raw material of the "anti-aging needle" was provided by Phoenix, and no one knew the specific ingredients. She tried to use GC-MS to analyze it, but the fragments could not be put together at all.So she suspects that this thing is not an enzyme or other chemical as the senior brother said, but more like a special microorganism or fungus.

It's a pity that the product will be launched soon, and the drug management is extremely strict, so she really can't steal...a sample.

Finally, Rong Rui saw that he couldn't ask any more questions, so he closed the notebook and prepared to leave.Yuan Xindi said anxiously: "Officer, is it all right with me? You see, I have said everything I should say, and I have said what I shouldn't, and I haven't given medicine to the meat rabbits in the farm anymore... Don't worry about me. I won't do that anymore..."

Rong Rui understood what she meant, and said in a serious manner: "This matter has not caused any significant impact so far, we will record it first, and if the diners who have eaten your food have any problems, or if someone files a complaint, we will investigate again of."

"Oh." Yuan Xindi heaved a sigh of relief.

Rong Rui got up to leave, and asked her again: "What happened to that blogger named 'Zongzi', your brother's classmate Li Mao? Why did he log off Weibo?"

Yuan Xindi said: "I also find it strange to mention this matter. Just two days ago, Li Mao suddenly apologized to me and my brother, saying that he shouldn't have said that I gave medicine to meat rabbits. My brother and I Inexplicably, after asking him again and again, he said that he had exposed this matter to a naturalist blogger named 'Farmer' before, but the next day he found that a person whose ID was a period followed him, and asked him about it in a private message. Is it true, who is the 'sister' mentioned in the private message, and what is the 'institute'?"

"At first he thought that this person was the trumpet of the 'farmer', but then he immediately received a private message from the farmer with a large account." Yuan Xindi said, "So he wondered if my brother opened a trumpet to defraud him , because he was playing a mobile game with my brother the night before, and he asked my brother to play for him for a while. He suspected that my brother quit the game midway and peeked at his private messages on Weibo... so he took the initiative to come and talk to him. We apologize."

Rong Rui asked, "Your brother hasn't seen it, has he?"

Yuan Xindi nodded: "My brother and I only found out about this after he confessed. We were very nervous at the time, because the only ones who could see this private message were Li Mao himself, the farmer and my brother. I also doubted it. Could it be that this person is the company's legal affairs officer who monitors the Weibo private messages of employees and relatives and friends, but thinks that they are not so perverted? Besides, the company hasn't troubled me until now, so I probably don't know about it It’s over. Later, Li Mao probably felt scared, and felt a little guilty, so he canceled the account directly.”

Based on the information she provided, Rongrui searched Weibo for the blogger with the ID ".", and found that this person had never posted a single Weibo account, and it seemed like an empty account.

Rong Rui didn't pay attention, directly quit Weibo, and took Xiao Su out of Yuan Xindi's house.

It was almost four o'clock when we came out of the community, Rong Rui got into the driver's seat, Xiao Su asked him where he was going, and he said, "Go to Qiaoyan's research institute."

Yuan Xindi rented a nearby house for the convenience of going to work, so they arrived at their destination in less than 5 minutes by car.This is the edge of the New Industrial Development Zone of Longzhou City. Farmland is just across the street, and mountains are farther away.

Xiao Su thought he was going to the research institute to investigate, but he went straight around the factory area and farmland, and drove the car to a small hillside.

From here, you can overlook the entire industrial area. Qiaoyan Research Institute is located in the westernmost part of the industrial area. There are two small buildings and a small green space.Rong Rui took out his mobile phone to locate, observed the surrounding geographical environment, and said, "Sure enough..."

"What?" Xiao Su was puzzled. He opened the Gaode map to locate and zoom in, and suddenly found a familiar place name, "Baifogou?"

"Yes, Baifogou." Rong Rui pointed to the rolling hills in the northwest, and said, "Two or 10 minutes drive from here is Baifogou, where Chen Jianguo's cousin bought the beast."

Xiao Su looked at the deep mountain, and then at the Qiaoyan Research Institute: "So that's where the beasts ran out from?"

"The research institute is next to the farmland, and then there are mountains and forests. Once the animals run out, it is very difficult to catch." Rong Rui said, "Do you remember what Yuan Xindi said just now? Their company suddenly started to strengthen management more than 20 days ago. The brother who was doing the experiment was fined...it was the time when the three of us were drawing lottery on Weibo to collect clues to the beast, I think this is definitely not a coincidence."

Xiao Su nodded silently, and asked again: "Who is the 'period' who privately sent Zongzi?"

"I'll check later. It's not easy for this person to monitor Zongzi's Weibo. Either he bribed someone inside Weibo, or he was a hacker." He took the drone from the car and said while wearing VR glasses. , "He should have discovered Zongzi through your Weibo. Apart from the beast thing, have you made any big news?"

"...Not really." Xiao Su considered himself a very low-key person, otherwise he wouldn't have written so many popular science articles and only had tens of thousands of followers.

"That probably has something to do with this case, but he doesn't seem to be a pretty person...strange." Rong Rui frowned and shook his head, then manipulated the drone into the air, and said, "Wait for me for a while, I'm going to take a picture of the surrounding area." Take the environment back and show it to the old grandson."

The drone seemed to come alive in his hands, flying so smoothly that Xiao Su was so envious. To be honest, children are required to play this kind of thing, just like playing games, how responsive it is.

"By the way, did you and Lao Sun investigate the 'Xingyue Beauty' that Yuan Xindi mentioned?" Xiao Su asked Rong Rui.

"No, I heard this name for the first time today." Rong Rui said while clapping, "We only did some general investigation last time."

Xiao Su hesitated for a while, and said: "'Xingyue Beauty' is a start-up company. It has been established for three or four years, and it was acquired by 'No Time' not long ago... To tell you the truth, I know their founder, Ding Tianyi. , he is my sister Xiao Ran's boyfriend."

"Oh?" Rong Rui was a little surprised, "I said when she mentioned this company, why did you suddenly interrupt, so you heard an acquaintance."

"It's not really an acquaintance, I just met once." Xiao Su said, "The last time Xiao Ran took him home for dinner, we chatted for a while, I just knew he was doing beauty resource integration, I didn't expect him to meddle Anti-aging needles."

"Is your sister involved in his company?"

"That's not true. She never asks about this." Xiao Su is most grateful for this. This project has been found to be dangerous and weird everywhere. He doesn't want his family to be affected by it. "What Yuan Xindi said just now 'Phoenix', the shell company posing as the Swedish Anti-Aging Center?"

Rong Rui said: "The genuine center is called 'Phenix', only one letter is missing, and the two words both mean 'Phoenix'. The intention to cover up is very obvious. But they have completed the procedures very well, and Yuan Xindi also It is said that the approval documents have been processed, and unless we can find definite evidence, it will be difficult to stop the project.”

Up to now, there are three cases of suspected death due to rejection of anti-aging injections——Lu Bai, You Gang, and Shenshou.But there is no definite evidence that their deaths are really related to anti-aging injections, or even that they have used Qiaoyan's anti-aging injections.

"Where can I find a breakthrough..." Xiao Su murmured.

"It's ready-made." Rong Rui finished filming, took off his glasses, and said, "You Gang's case, Rongzhen's autopsy results have been accepted by the special case team, Wu Xingyu has been proven innocent, and they will soon identify new suspects people."

"Zhang Chanjuan and You Li?"

"Yes." Rong Rui said, "One of them is Qiaoyan's chairman, and the other is the executive president. They are both controlled by the police. How can the anti-aging injection project be launched?"

Xiao Su heaved a sigh of relief, such a terrible project had better never go online!

Rong Rui played the video again and felt that there was no problem. He packed the drone and put it back in the car, saying: "Brother, please watch your sister carefully, don't let her get involved in this matter. As for her boyfriend, I don't know yet. Has he participated and how deeply has he been involved, you'd better not remind him hastily and startle the snake."

Xiao Su understood his concerns, nodded and said, "Don't worry."

"Let's go back to the city." Rong Rui got into the driver's seat and said, "I messed around with dinner last night, and today I'll take you to a big meal and try some local specialties."

Xiao Su was a little speechless, from working to fishing in a second, the child's mentality is really super good.

It would be perfect if his sleeping position is as good as his state of mind!
