Deep in the Living

Chapter 40 Doubt

In the open space of the community, Luo Di had already met up with the squad leader.

The clothes and skin of the two were also completely covered by the warning red light. However, compared with the shock of the squad leader, Rody's expression did not change much.

Maybe it was the facial paralysis caused by the zombification of the lower half of his face, or maybe Roddy seemed to have seen this scene before.

They looked up at the sky together, looking towards the source of the red light.

A highly modernized military helicopter. The capital letter [I] printed on the fuselage is wrapped in a circle coating to emphasize the importance of the letter.

They have all learned this symbol in public textbooks.

Represents an important national agency - the Investigation Bureau.

Screen, train and assign investigators across the country to handle sudden abnormal incidents in various places, regional control, and be responsible for suppressing and eliminating pseudo-humans.

The Investigation Bureau is the foundation for maintaining national security and stability, and every investigator selected is an elite among the elites.

The "advanced studies" that Luo Di and his classmates are about to face corresponds to a path to the Investigation Bureau. Those who meet the requirements in all subjects can go to the Municipal Investigation Bureau to participate in the entry assessment, and once passed, they can become trainee investigators.

The helicopter descended.
An investigator dressed in black came down and injected the prepared medicine into the back of the woman's head.

Injection takes effect.
The other party immediately fell into a coma and the "fear embodiment" was lifted, turning back into a normal human appearance.

Then they pulled out the black pillar inside the woman's body and wrapped her body with a special film, completing the "pseudo-human packaging".

The entire arrest operation was quite efficient.

The man in black did not leave, but instead turned his gaze to the two young men dozens of meters away.

The two experienced such a dangerous incident and had the most direct contact with the fake person. They had to undergo relevant inspections and were also required to describe in detail what happened tonight.

Rody didn't mind, as this way he could get the highest level of treatment for free.

After all, besides having your palm pierced, "zombification" also has a certain price.

Tonight, in order to wake up the squad leader, he applied zombification to his face for the first time. This kind of alienation behavior close to the head is quite dangerous. Once it touches the pituitary gland, it is likely to form a corner of the mind.

is also like this,

When the two approached the helicopter, the investigator immediately held Roddy's shoulders and performed a nasal swab test on the spot, confirming that there was no problem before taking him on the plane.

It is worth mentioning that this investigator was the one who was responsible for the blockade of the community yesterday and met with the two people.

The helicopter flew to the Investigation Bureau in Jupiter City, which has a huge area, a large part of which is used for parking.

The entire building is in a ring shape and wraps around the parking lot.
Before the helicopter landed, employees from the "Municipal Research Bureau" were already waiting below. They would transfer the captured pseudo-humans and subsequently carry out related work in the experimental department of the research bureau.

As for the two young people who directly experienced the incident, they need to undergo psychological examination and physical treatment first.

Sun rise,

Three and a half hours have passed.
Rody's zombification has been safely resolved under the effect of drugs and has not caused too much impact on his body. The two pierced palms have also received medical treatment and the surface is wrapped with gauze.

As for the squad leader who has been possessed, he only needs to continue taking a special medicine in the next few days to eliminate the remaining impurities in the body, which will not affect his normal life.

Of course, the squad leader will need to undergo frequent psychological examinations in the next month.

The two were allowed to go to the investigator's cafeteria and have a delicious breakfast for free.

After a whole night of life-and-death moments and tedious physical examinations, the two were exhausted and began to fight their eyelids while eating.

But the Investigation Bureau seemed to deliberately not give us time to rest. After breakfast, we were arranged to go to the [Conversation Room].
The investigator is still responsible for the conversation and record-keeping. It seems that once an incident is locked down, the corresponding investigator needs to be responsible to the end.

only,
The other party had already taken off the black clothes he wore when performing the mission, and was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a slicked-back hair. His dark pupils were like the black pillars that pierced Spider Woman's body yesterday.

He also wore a work ID card on his chest - [Ge Wenzhu].

Luo Di first recounted his experience of last night in detail.

When Ge Wenzhu heard the specific details, including the fact that Luo Di used zombie teeth to help him get rid of the possession, he quickly adjusted his glasses to cover up his fleeting surprise.

After Ge Wenzhu recorded the entire incident, he looked at the two again and said, "In view of your contribution in the operation of arresting [Fake Person-Wu Huazhen], our Investigation Bureau will give you corresponding rewards afterwards.

However, before that, I would like to raise some questions based on the events just described and the results of your physical examination.

note,

The following questions and answers will to some extent affect my judgment of your personal situation and whether you have potential alienation tendencies. "

The topic of rewards was instantly switched to suspicion of the two people, and the atmosphere became strange.

Ge Wenzhu suddenly loosened his hands that were originally supporting his chin, and moved his right hand forward to fit into the eye sockets of the two people as much as possible, and slowly raised his index finger.

“First,
Ms. Wu Huazhen is a [latent pseudo-person] and has reached a mature state.

We have previously launched an investigation into her murder case, but there were no clues left at the scene. The other party's hiding methods were very powerful.

Of course, it was highly likely that she received whispered guidance from the corner of her mind, helping her perfect her disguise.

In any case, the target is the type who is good at hiding.

When the neighborhood was blocked yesterday, she sensed the danger and fled, but she risked her life to come back in the middle of the night to target you. This is very strange.

What exactly caused her to take such a huge risk to come back and target you? Was it really because Wu Wen's appearance was too much in line with her personal preferences?

Moreover, I remember very clearly that Wu Wen happened to come over when the building was closed yesterday, and she also happened to meet Wu Huazhen. Isn't this all a little too coincidental?"

When asking this question, the man with gold-rimmed glasses was looking at Wu Wen, wanting her to answer the question herself.

"Perhaps it was because I knocked on the door and had close contact with the other party? Or maybe my appearance met the standards that her husband or fiancé had proposed?"

The investigator rejected the claim outright, "No... the first two victims had contact with Ms. Wu Huazhen. As for the question of husband or fiancé, there is no such thing at all. Ms. Wu Huazhen has always been single."

Hearing this, Luo Di felt a little uncomfortable, and changed his usual character and took the initiative to interrupt:
"Wu Wen spent most of her winter break taking extra classes, with three days off. Yesterday was exactly her first day off. You can verify this directly with her family, there's no need to speculate here.

As for why the fake people are willing to take the risk to hunt and kill, in my opinion, it is because they have enough confidence.

Perfect infiltration and sneak attack at sleep time, using "quasi-corner space" as a reserve means. From anyone's point of view, it is impossible for two underage students to survive in such a situation.

The same thing happened to the woman.”

Luo Di's statement satisfied the investigator.
In fact, Ge Wenzhu had long believed that Wu Wen was normal. After all, she had been possessed during this incident, which was enough to rule out most problems, and her subsequent psychological testing by the Investigation Bureau was also completely normal.

The person Ge Wenzhu really wanted to ask was Luo Di.

Taking advantage of Luo Di's interruption, the man with gold-rimmed glasses slowly turned around and handed over a photo, a single photo of Luo Di taken when the helicopter landed.

Face zoom.

The half-zombie face is a bit creepy.

However, there is also a very obvious feature. The entire eye is full of bloodshot, and there is a thick blood vein running across the pupil.

“Red veins piercing the eyes… In our past investigations, only extreme killers would have such eyes during hunting.

Did you want to kill someone at that time?

Is it because of our arrival that you were forced to curb your murderous impulse?"

Ge Wenzhu's sudden change of topic and targeted questioning made even the monitor stunned for a moment, but Luo Di, who was the subject of the topic, immediately gave an answer:
"Yes, I want to kill this fake person completely until he can no longer breathe out."

"Oh, very good!"

Ge Wenzhu nodded and smiled with satisfaction, and the overall atmosphere became relaxed.

"Before graduating, he was recognized by the Research Bureau and was granted the "Cornering Item" on an experimental basis. He was able to apply it skillfully and even innovatively when fighting against real pseudo-humans, which helped to remove the possession state and ultimately survive.

There is not a trace of fear or timidity in your eyes, but instead a determination to kill.

If it weren't for the regulations, I would really like to recruit you now."
