Chapter 49: Nothing Difficult
The red clouds over the room have completely dissipated, and the night sky has become clear again. It seems that tomorrow will be a good weather. Through the thin and scattered clouds, many shimmering stars can be seen. Chen Xian is walking on this night. Under the watchful eyes of the public, he walked out of the room unhurriedly.
Seeing that only Chen Xian came out of the housing area, Fatty Huo and the others sank in their hearts, and immediately had an ominous premonition. Could it be that Lu Yi died in it? ?
"Xiao Chen!! How's the situation inside??" Fatty Huo hurriedly led someone up to meet him, and ran away quickly, the fat on his face trembled as he ran, "Where's Xiao Lu??"
Chen Xian took the towel handed over by Zhao Song, wiped the stench of blood on his face, and replied softly, "Xiao Lu is fine, he is resting inside."
"Is he injured? Why didn't he come out with you??" Fatty Huo asked eagerly, his expression very anxious.
Although Lu Yisheng is only a mid-level member of the secret bureau, and is only a very common role in the headquarters, it is different in the branch. Apart from Lu Yisheng, there are only two intermediate members, absolutely dead. There is one less, not to mention that the two are not aliens who are good at fighting. If Lu Yisheng was too seriously injured, he would even die like this... Fatty Huo would be distressed to death!
Taking another 10,000 steps back, he said that Lu Yisheng and Fatty Huo also have feelings. In addition to the relationship between superiors and subordinates, there is also a relationship between the elders and the younger generation, which is why he is so worried about Lu Yisheng. Safety is also because there is such a certain affection in it.
"He is indeed injured." Chen Xian answered truthfully, without waiting for Fatty Huo to ask anxiously, he added, "But he suffered minor injuries, nothing serious, you don't have to worry too much."
"That's fine...I'm relieved if you're all right..." Fatty Huo breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you Chen Xian?"
At this moment, an unfamiliar voice came into Chen Xian's ears. He turned around and saw a middle-aged man in a coat who was speaking. He looked straight and he should have never seen it before.
"I am." Chen Xian nodded without saying much.
"My name is Jin Buhuan, and I'm the director of the provincial branch of the Secret Service Bureau." Jin Buhuan stretched out his hand to Chen Xian, with a friendly and curious smile on his face, "It's better to be famous than to meet each other, this time I'm seeing the real master. already."
"Hello, Director Jin." Chen Xian politely shook hands with him without saying much. He turned to look at Fatty Huo and said, "The situation inside is a bit complicated, and it may require assistance from the logistics department and the armed forces department."
"Are those paper figurines still inside?" Fatty Huo frowned, "Damn it, it seems that people from the provincial bureau really have to help blow up this place..."
Although Chen Xian came back safe and sound, he also brought good news that Lu Yisheng was fine.
But it is undeniable that most of the people present felt that Chen Xian just escaped, not after the case was resolved. They were not Fatty Huo who had dealt with Chen Xian. The confidence is not so strong, even if they know the identity of the senior member of Chen Xian, they will not think that he has the ability to solve this strange case.
Not long ago, the headquarters had upgraded the degree of harm of this case from high to special, which is a standard red-headed special case.
What is a special case?
Take a very simple example.
If you want to solve a special case, you must dispatch at least one platoon member of the Armed Forces Department, and you must also dispatch a special mass destruction hot weapon from the Scientific Research Department. Then two or three special members are a must.
Even two or three special members are not enough, and some cases require seven or eight, or even dozens of special members to work together to deal with them.
What is the situation now?
There are only two people in charge of this strange case.
One is Chen Xian, a senior member who just joined.
One is a Lu-born student who is an old fritter but only gets into the middle class.
Do they want to settle this strange case? Even risking your life is not enough!
Therefore, Fatty Huo has confidence in Chen Xian, but this confidence has a certain limit. Although Fatty Huo is very willing to believe that Chen Xian can handle this case, his reason is constantly reminding him.
This case is completely different from the different cases that Chen Xian has dealt with before. Not only is the degree of danger and the difficulty of handling the case different, but the factors involved in this case are also terrifyingly complicated, such as highly infectious particle viruses, unknown religious curses , and the red cloud that appeared extremely strange... According to the analysis of Song Jueming, the chief of the investigation department, this case is almost one of the most special cases.
How could it be possible for Chen Xian to do it alone?
"Paper figurines?" Chen Xian glanced at Fatty Huo, then lowered his head slowly, continued to wipe the blood on his arms with a towel, and said without raising his head, "They are all dead."
"Dead??" Fatty Huo was stunned, and asked hastily, "Are you sure you're all dead? Don't dare to joke about this!"
"You know, I don't like to joke." Chen Xian said.
As he said, all the paper figurines in the housing area that were capable of infecting particle viruses had all "died", which he had carefully verified along the way when he walked out of the housing area.
All paper figurines have the same death state, like pieces of meat that were suddenly dehydrated by chemicals, and like paper balls that were crumpled by external forces, all curled up on the ground and turned into bowl-sized "dumplings". There are scarlet veins all over the dumplings, like the traces of red lines left after the paper is burned and not completely extinguished.
They carried a little warmth, like embers that had fallen from the sky before.
"You killed it all?" Jin Buhuan asked suddenly.
Chen Xian raised his head and glanced at him: "From a certain point of view, they were killed by me."
The crowd that had been noisy before suddenly fell silent and fell into a strange silence. Everyone stared at Chen Xian in stunned eyes, and the three characters of disbelief were written all over their faces.
What the fuck? ?
Thousands of paper figures, you say, kill them? ?
Are you kidding me? ?
It's not like bragging! !
Chen Xian didn't care what other people looked at him, and was too lazy to explain anything. After wiping his face, he folded the towel, and gave it to Zhao Song who was standing by and thanked him.
"Senior Tu, do you still remember what you said before? You don't know where those paper figurines came from. The more you kill the more paper figurines."
Hearing this, Tu Sen nodded and said he remembered.
"Actually, it's not that there are a lot of paper figurines. The number of them is fixed at the beginning, but after each death, they can split and regenerate themselves. One becomes two, and two becomes four." Chen Xian sighed and raised his head. He rubbed his aching arm, "All conventional physical means can't kill these targets. Even if you cover it with firepower and bombard it with hot weapons, it's useless."
Hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed, especially those soldiers in the Armed Section.
"How did you kill them?" Jin Buhuan asked enthusiastically, his attitude towards Chen Xian was extremely good, even better than Fatty Huo's attitude.
"As we have analyzed before, they should be derivatives of a spell, similar to the Taoist magic of controlling ghosts. They all have the concept of a source. As long as the source is strangled, they will naturally die." Chen Xian He said, as if he suddenly remembered something, and grinned at Jin Buhuan, "Even when the source was not found at first, it was quite troublesome to eliminate them."
"How did you kill them without finding the source?" Jin Bucall seemed very curious, he unscrewed the cap of a bottle of mineral water handed over by his hand, and handed it to Chen Xian, "You said before that they are immune to all routines. Physical means, can it be considered that they can be eliminated by those religious means?"
"Not necessarily." Chen Xian shook his head, "I don't know anything about religious studies, so I can't say for sure, but Xiao Lu is a child of Lu Banmen. According to him, the techniques he uses seem to be good for these paper figurines. It's useless, it can't restrain their ability to split and regenerate themselves, and they will be reborn shortly after being killed."
"Then how did you destroy them?" Jin Buhuan became more curious, "I heard that you seem to be an insulator of religion. Since you don't know those things, and these creatures are immune to all conventional physical means, then... …”
"I ate their heads." Chen Xian said suddenly.
For a time, the quiet crowd became even quieter, and needles could almost be heard.
Jin Buhuan and the others also looked at Chen Xian in a stunned manner, not expecting that he would suddenly give such an answer.
"Eat...eat?"
"Yes." When Chen Xian said this, the expression on his face was very serious, and his tone was very solemn, like those scholars in the scientific research department, "their split and rebirth all start from the head, I suspect this has nothing to do with it. Their brain tissue is related, as long as I eat their heads in time, those paper people will not be able to split and regenerate."
As soon as the words fell, Chen Xian saw that everyone was staring at him, and he was inevitably a little unnatural. After all, his personality is relatively introverted, so he instinctively touched his nose and put his eyes on the meat saw in his hand. , and broke eye contact with the others, which made him feel a little more relaxed.
"Actually, it's hard to say, but it's easy to do."
Chen Xian showed a somewhat introverted smile, and his smiling face with red lips and white teeth was a bit brighter than the night.
"As long as you eat it, it's not difficult."
