"I saw it clearly just now, Officer. You collapsed that bridge on the rooftop in a flash. It looked just like the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception from an anime. That's something only a superpower could do, right?"

"The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception... Heh."

Qin Huanyu's smile deepened, and she asked in return:

"So, what kind of skill do you think the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception are in anime?"

What kind of skill is the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception?

This question startled Lu Han for a moment. She thought for a moment before answering:

"It's that kind of... hmm, the ability to see the weakest point and line of an object, and then easily destroy the object by striking the point or cutting the line?"

"well said!"

Qin Huanyu first affirmed Lu Han's answer, then continued to patiently guide him:

"So you think that if we don't use the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception to look at things, the most vulnerable points and lines on an object won't exist?"

"This……"

Lu Han looked thoughtful, clearly concerned about the issue, and even stopped feeling the pain in her leg.

Qin Huanyu pressed her advantage, not giving Lu Han much time to think, and gave the answer to the question with a light laugh:

"It may not be as exaggerated as depicted in anime, but every object has this kind of weakness in terms of its structure. As long as you attack this weakness, you can destroy the object quickly with much less force than normal."

"Sister, the reason I was able to destroy that overpass so easily was because I used scientific observation and calculation to find the weakest point in the overpass structure, and then used a resonance attack on that point, ultimately achieving what you think only superpowers could do."

Qin Huanyu's words weren't entirely a lie.

Theoretically speaking, once the weaknesses of the pedestrian bridge are observed and calculated using scientific methods, any adult could destroy it with a single blow using appropriate tools.

The Mathematical Magic Eye simply accelerates scientific observation and calculation, which normally takes a long time, into an instant.

Lu Han was still young, and even if she was a little smarter than the average child, her intelligence was limited. She failed to see through the cunning adult's prank, and coupled with some wonderful fantasies in her heart, her eyes gradually lit up as she couldn't help but mutter to herself:

"Can you really do that just by studying hard? The power of science..."

"Yes, the power of science."

Qin Huanyu suppressed a laugh and continued to deceive:

"So little sister, if you want to be like me, you should study hard! At least you should do well in math and physics, then you'll have a tiny chance."

"Mathematics and...physics?"

Lu Han seemed to truly believe it, nodding emphatically, her eyes shining brightly.

"I understand, officer."

. . . . .

By the time Qin Huanyu took Lu Han to a safe place for treatment, the rescue work for the entire town had come to an end.

Thanks to the timely and correct rescue efforts of the armed police, and the fact that the zombies were not as fast as healthy people, many townspeople were successfully rescued.

Preliminary statistics indicate that there were approximately 8500 people in the entire Hongmu Town at the time of the incident. More than 8100 people were successfully rescued, while the remaining 300-plus were less fortunate and mostly perished. Furthermore, most of them were transformed into zombies and then killed by the armed police or Qin Huanyu.

The death toll of more than 300 people is by no means a small number, but considering the danger of a sudden zombie outbreak in a densely populated area, this result is already considered good.

Xiao Liu quickly sent back good news: the spread of the blood-red fog inside the subway tunnel was not serious, and the subway station in front of Hongmu Town was basically unaffected.

However, for safety's sake, Qin Huanyu still asked Xiao Liu to temporarily block the subway tunnel from the station in front, just in case.

Afterwards, Qin Huanyu personally guided the armed police and medical staff in examining and treating the residents of Hongmu Town. Nearly three hours passed in a flash.

The support from Cheng Hai and Bai Ling has finally arrived.

Fourteen monks from Shilin Temple arrived in Shanbei City. These monks were not martial monks, and their fighting ability was worlds apart from Cheng Hai's, but their Buddhist teachings were not much weaker. They could use chanting and rituals to expel the corpse poison from the townspeople's bodies.

Many unfortunate people who had been bitten by zombies and whose transformation was almost uncontrollable by electric shocks were finally saved at this point.

Amidst the chanting that Qin Huanyu found rather irritating, those bitten by the zombies all calmed down, their faces gradually regained color, and their physiological values ​​returned to normal.

The pills that Bai Ling brought were also a timely help. These pills could not only help people bitten by zombies to treat the zombie poison, but also allow ordinary people to be unaffected by the dangerous blood-red mist for a certain period of time after taking the pills.

After several tests confirmed the reliability of the pills, Qin Huanyu personally led a team of more than 10 outstanding armed police officers who had also taken the pills, donned protective suits, and entered the Hongmu Town subway station to investigate the source of the blood-red mist.

The group quickly discovered the scene of the subway accident and found the large hole that had been smashed through the wall after the subway derailed, from which the blood-red mist was gushing out.

Qin Huanyu did not act rashly. She carefully observed outside the cave, using a special mobile phone to detect changes in the concentration of spiritual elements in the environment, and then performed calculations and reasoning.

Qin Huanyu quickly came to a conclusion.

The hole that was broken open is very likely an ancient tomb. The blood-red mist is a method used by the ancient tomb to deal with tomb raiders, and is a product of some kind of evil magic.

The tomb owner was likely a highly skilled sorcerer from ancient times. There were several areas inside the tomb with very high concentrations of spiritual energy. The two highest concentrations were similar to those of the treasures in the Imperial Treasury of the Divine Capital, suggesting they were likely burial artifacts of sorcery.

Fearing the dangers of other traps and magical artifacts within the tomb, Qin Huanyu decisively abandoned the idea of ​​exploring the tomb with the armed police and focused on studying the blood-red mist.

The research yielded results in a short time.

Fortunately, the blood-red mist was indeed a defensive measure of the tomb, with a fixed total amount and area of ​​activity, so it did not spread too much beyond the subway station, nor did it drift along the subway tunnel to the previous station.

The blood-red mist is toxic to normal living beings and can turn corpses into zombies, but it is no different from ordinary air to mechanical equipment. It is non-flammable and does not easily undergo chemical reactions.

What to do next is quite simple.

Qin Huanyu submitted a report, and many large-scale ventilation equipment and metal tanks for storing liquefied gas were transferred from Baiguang City and surrounding areas.

Start pumping!

Chapter 70 Is Ayu going to fall in love?

Multiple ventilation systems hummed and worked day and night, drawing the blood-red mist from the Redwood Town subway station into metal gas cylinders.

During this time, Qin Hai called Qin Huanyu, saying that the Ling Su Research Institute wanted those metal gas canisters to study the blood-red mist inside.

Qin Huanyu was not surprised at all. The Ling Su Research Institute was originally engaged in researching these kinds of things and had very comprehensive safety measures. They had studied many more dangerous things, so the corpse poison mist that could transform zombies was really nothing.

After quickly submitting an application to the 404 Investigation Bureau and receiving approval, Qin Huanyu kept only two canisters of corpse poison mist for the Bureau to record, and had the armed police deliver the rest to the farm above the Lingsu Research Institute.

More than half of the corpse poison fog in the Redwood Town subway station was removed, which was about 30 hours after the disaster broke out. Detailed post-disaster statistics have been released.

Including those who died in the initial subway accident, a total of 314 people died in the Redwood Town zombie case. Most of them lived near the subway station and died from the zombie toxic fog that spilled out from the subway station entrance. Very few people were actually bitten by zombies, less than 20 people.

Of course, quite a few people were bitten or scratched by zombies during their escape, totaling more than 1500.

Fortunately, Qin Huanyu's immediate response was appropriate, and the support from Cheng Hai and Bai Ling was timely. With the purification of Buddhist scriptures and the treatment of medicine, all those who were injured by the zombies and infected with the zombie virus are now safe.

With so many people dead, the incident can't be hidden any longer.

While Qin Huanyu was directing the rescue and handling of the corpse poison fog in Hongmu Town, the governing officials of Baiguang City were holding a meeting to discuss how to announce the matter to the outside world.

Later, Qin Huanyu also joined the meeting via video link, offering several suggestions for revising the results discussed by the officials as a professional, which were successfully approved.

Ultimately, the story told to the outside world was that a subway train derailed, crashed through the wall of a subway tunnel, and ended up connecting with an ancient tomb.

The owner of the ancient tomb was a person of great status in life. He prepared a large amount of poison gas in the tomb to prevent tomb robbers. The poison gas was released when the derailed train crashed into the wall and spread into Redwood Town.

Poisonous gas is extremely lethal and can also cause hallucinations.

All the victims that night, except for those involved in the car accident, died from severe poisoning.

Among the survivors, many were mildly poisoned and experienced various hallucinations. So if anyone says online or elsewhere that they have seen zombies in Redwood Town, do not take it seriously. They are definitely hallucinating due to mild poisoning!

If one were to nitpick, there are still some doubts about this claim. For example, why was there a widespread internet outage on the night of the incident? Could the poison gas from the ancient tomb really damage the network? And what about those zombie videos that appeared online immediately after the incident but were quickly deleted?

In the past, there would definitely be trolls who would seize on these issues and argue with the official announcements, attracting a bunch of bored netizens to watch the drama unfold.

But this time it was different, because as all the corpse poison mist in the Redwood Town subway station was sucked out by the ventilation equipment, the ancient tomb that was hit by the derailed subway officially attracted attention from all sides.

Compared to the trivial doubts in the official announcement, many people are more concerned about what treasures might be inside this ancient tomb.

An archaeological team from Luoyang is on its way; they will be responsible for excavating the ancient tombs at the Redwood Town subway station.

Of course, ancient tombs protected by corpse poison mist like this likely contain other extraordinary forces, and the archaeological work will also involve personnel from the 404 Investigation Bureau.

The Redwood Town zombie case was ultimately recorded as a Class C case by the 404 Investigation Bureau, and Qin Huanyu, as the local investigator, handled it with excellence.

The case was officially closed after the official announcement. Afterwards, the Investigation Bureau headquarters directly assigned Qin Huanyu a new Class C mission, which was to cooperate with the archaeological team to carry out archaeological work on the newly discovered ancient tomb.

Qin Huanyu, of course, would not refuse; she personally picked up the archaeological team at the airport.

All members of the archaeological team came from Shendu University, or were related to Shendu University. Qin Huanyu had already reviewed the materials beforehand.

The team leader, Zhang Ji, is the vice dean of the School of History at Shendu University and one of the most famous archaeology professors in the school. He is 65 years old but still very healthy. He can eat two large bowls of rice or two sesame cakes at every meal and insists on swimming all year round.

The remaining members of the archaeological team were all doctoral students supervised by Professor Zhang Ji and the granddaughter of the president of Shendu University.

Qin Huanyu initially thought that the principal's granddaughter was just using connections to gain seniority or join in the fun, but she was wrong. This woman was far from simple.

Professor Zhang Ji respected this woman very much, not because of her status, but because there were certain things about her that made him very convinced, something Qin Huanyu could see.

Another point is that this woman is very attractive, at least to Qin Huanyu.

When Qin Huanyu picked up the archaeological team at the airport, she kept looking at this woman. Now in the car, she kept her eyes on the woman even more. Even Professor Zhang Ji's constant questions about the ancient tomb couldn't distract her much.

This woman's name is Yi Youyou. She has long black hair that reaches past her shoulders and black eyes. She is dressed in the standard professional woman's attire: a shirt, a narrow skirt, high heels, and flesh-colored pantyhose.

When Qin Huanyu first saw Yi Youyou, she thought she was finally going to fall in love, because Yi Youyou's figure and temperament were just too good.

Yi Youyou, like Qin Huanyu, was a tall and fiery beauty with straight and long legs. Her figure was shapely and curvaceous, attracting attention with every step she took.

While being greatly amazed, Qin Huanyu was also aroused by her competitive spirit. She secretly activated her Mathematical Magic Eye to carefully observe Yi Youyou and obtained detailed body data. She was surprised to find that Yi Youyou's figure was really no worse than hers, with all the numerical proportions being quite perfect, or rather, quite in line with mainstream human aesthetics.

Not only does she have a great figure, but Yi Youyou also has an outstanding temperament. The white-collar women's professional attire that can be seen everywhere in the office building cannot hide her classical background. She is like a noble lady who has traveled from an ancient costume drama to the modern era to become a female white-collar worker.

Indeed, in just a few brief greetings at the airport, Yi Youyou fully demonstrated her capable and strong-willed side, as well as her profound classical cultural background. Her refined and cultured demeanor was equally captivating.

In short, Yi Youyou is amazing! It's just a pity...

Chapter 71: I need all the information about that woman this afternoon!

What a pity.

Inside the car, Qin Huanyu, who was sitting in the back seat with Yi Youyou, was still looking at Yi Youyou, her gaze sweeping over her from top to bottom.

Start by looking at the slender, fair neck above the bow tie, then at the chest encased in a white lace blouse, the waist cinched in a beige pencil skirt, the long, shapely legs encased in sheer stockings, and the delicate little feet encased in silver rhinestone-studded high heels.

Look at it from top to bottom, then from bottom to top again, and finally focus your gaze on its face.

What a pity, what a real pity.

If a woman's charm is judged solely by her figure and temperament, then Yi Youyou is undoubtedly the most charming woman Qin Huanyu has ever seen.

Unfortunately, a woman's charm is not only measured by her figure and temperament, but also by her looks, which immediately lowered Yi Youyou's overall charm level.

It's not that Yi Youyou's face is ugly; her pure looks are still 80 points. She would definitely be considered a pretty girl among a bunch of ordinary girls.

However, compared to her figure and temperament, Yi Youyou's looks are somewhat lacking.

Just like a 120mm tank main gun, its power is already great compared to firearms, but it is far from enough for a warship.

With such a great figure and temperament, how could she only have an 80-point appearance?

The more Qin Huanyu thought about it, the more regrettable it seemed. She couldn't help but fantasize in her mind, imagining what it would be like if Yi Youyou had a 95-point level of beauty, just like how AI redraws a picture of a beautiful girl whose style is not refined enough.

Then Qin Huanyu was somewhat bewitched by the stunning beauty in her imagination. Her toes curled up and clenched in her boots, and her two beautiful legs in black stockings couldn't help but come together, as if she was restless.

Just then, Professor Zhang Ji, who was sitting in the passenger seat, stopped asking Qin Huanyu questions and leaned back in his seat, frowning slightly as he began to think.

Having long noticed someone staring at her, Yi Youyou finally couldn't hold back any longer. At least three-tenths of her gentle and refined demeanor transformed into the assertiveness of a businesswoman:

"Officer Qin, are you curious about me? You've been looking at me rather rudely. Do you think I'm a suspect?"

"Sorry, sorry, I have a bit of an occupational hazard, I see everyone like that."

Coming back to her senses from her reverie, Qin Huanyu tried her best to apologize sincerely, while secretly pinching her black-stockinged leg to focus her mind.

"And Miss Yi, you are really very charming. Seeing you reminds me of the noble ladies of the capital city back then."

"Not at all, Officer Qin, you flatter me."

After being praised for her beauty, Yi Youyou's slight annoyance at being stared at clearly dissipated, and she revealed a bright smile, politely exchanging compliments with Qin Huanyu:

"Officer Qin, you are a stunning beauty with a top-notch figure and looks. Not long ago, after you represented the Baiguang City Police Department to release the announcement of that cult case in front of the media, many people on the Internet have been calling you the number one policewoman in Shengzhou. I have also heard of your beauty in the capital."

"Oh dear, Miss Yi, you're exaggerating... How can you believe the nonsense from those people online who call any beautiful woman 'wife'? Even the number one policewoman of Saint Zhou Kingdom makes such a joke~~"

Qin Huanyu covered her mouth and giggled, speaking very modestly, but her eyes, already narrowed into slits, betrayed that she was actually very happy to be praised.

Qin Huanyu was aware that she was known online as the number one policewoman in the Holy Zhou Kingdom, but she hadn't paid much attention to it before.

Apart from the princess who is considered the most beautiful in principle, Qin Huanyu herself regarded herself as the most beautiful woman in the Holy Zhou Kingdom, or rather, the young woman who best fits the aesthetic standards of the Holy Zhou Kingdom.
