Pollution throughout the territory - #302 - Chapter 298 Linking clues
He didn’t think so at the time, but looking back now, Xia Ren felt that the insect egg wrapped in a tumor that he and Lily took out was very suspicious.
The first is that the location where the eggs appeared was on the back of Zhao Rou’s brain. The specific symptom was interstitial chordoma.
This is exactly the same as Xia Ren’s original situation.
A bold idea popped into his head.
perhaps,
Will…
Is it possible that Zhao Rou was about to awaken her tentacles and system just like him, but by some strange combination of circumstances, her tentacles were cut off halfway before they could grow?
As soon as this idea came up, Xia Ren rejected it.
Although the system appeared to be closely related to the tentacles, it was only after Zhao Mingyue took her to her house that the system’s prompts began to unfold in her mind, so there was a high probability that the system and the tentacles were originally separate.
Moreover, the insect egg was just a little bit smaller, just like a grain of rice, and the white worm inside was even smaller. It looked nothing like its own thick and long tentacles.
So what will it be?
Xia Ren unconsciously touched the back of his neck.
“This location…”
It’s the giant’s weakness!
He shook his head to get this strange thought out of his head.
The back of the head is easily exposed, not just for giants, but also for humans, so this also gives something an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Is it possible that some kind of creature has parasitized its own eggs into the human body?
Xia Ren felt a little cold on his back.
Zhao Rou kept shouting that the bug came in, maybe she recalled the original scene!
“By the way, Congressman Zhao.”
Xia Ren turned his head.
Seeing that he suddenly had an idea, Zhao Tianliang responded: “What?”
Xia Ren asked: “When was Zhao Rou’s chordoma discovered?”
Zhao Tianliang recalled it and said, “It was this summer when she came back from summer vacation and found out.”
“summer holiday?”
“Um.”
Zhao Tianliang sighed and said: “My daughter was supposed to be in her third year of college this year, but she was diagnosed with chordoma just after returning from Shanghai during the summer vacation. At that time, it really felt like the sky had fallen. She was still so young… …”
“You said Zhao Rou came back from the Demon City?”
The deaths of Zhang Xiang and his parents are all related to demons. Xia Ren is now extremely sensitive to these two words.
Zhao Tianliang didn’t know why he had such a big reaction, and nodded blankly: “Yes.”
“Is it Dongpu City?”
Xia Ren continued to ask.
Zhao Tianliang nodded again and said in surprise: “How do you know.”
“It’s actually there.”
Xia Ren lowered his head and murmured to himself.
The clues connected.
Before Liu Xiuxiu chose to defect to the foundation, she deliberately told Xia Ren about Zhang Xiang and his parents in an attempt to get him to go to the Magic City.
Xia Ren saw through her thoughts at that time. Although she was a little moved by what she said, because the update requester had not yet completed it, under the pressure of updating 10,000 words every day, it was too dangerous to go to an unfamiliar place. It’s big, so I didn’t choose to go.
If he remembered correctly, according to Liu Xiuxiu, ghoul cubs usually don’t show characteristics that are different from ordinary people until they are about thirty years old. The reason why Zhang Xiang began to awaken so early may have something to do with the university he attended. related.
Zhang Xiang studied paleontology at a university in the magical city of Dongpu. His tutor once led a dozen students, including Zhang Xiang, to study a certain project. Not long after, the professor and students all mysteriously disappeared. There was no news, only Zhang Xiang survived intact, and then he returned to Jupiter City and gradually began to awaken.
Liu Xiuxiu suspected that the research Zhang Xiang participated in prompted his accelerated growth, and apart from pollution, Xia Ren could not think of other factors that could affect the ghoul cubs.
Now it seems that Zhang Xiang may be attending the same school as Zhao Rou, and there must be something terrifying there.
“What happened to Dongpu City?”
Zhao Tianliang asked.
Xia Ren thought for a while, ordinary people should try not to come into contact with pollution matters, and then explained: “It’s nothing, I was just curious, so I wanted to ask.”
He then changed the topic and looked at Yu Jingjing: “Also, didn’t you mention delirium and phobia?”
Yu Jingjing’s favorability towards him dropped a lot, and she said, “That’s just my guess. Both delirium and phobia require specific diagnosis. Besides, I’ve said it countless times, I’m not a professional.”
“All right.”
Xia Ren couldn’t be angry with her at all.
He took out his phone and looked at the time. It was only nine in the morning.
“I’ll take another look in the ward. You don’t have to follow us.”
Yu Jingjing is happy to do this, so naturally she will not object.
Holding Lily’s hand, Xia Ren and Zhao Wenliang returned to Zhao Rou’s ward.
She is still sleeping, with a hint of pain on her brows. Although Xia Ren’s achievement points are not very abundant, due to the explosive update released yesterday, coupled with Baiyin Meng and splash screen push, Global Pollution has gained a lot of new fans. His achievement points also increased from one thousand eighty to two thousand seven, which was still affordable for the time being.
I exchanged a bottle of first-level anti-pollution liquid from the system store and put a drop on Zhao Rou’s lips, but it didn’t have much effect.
Although her complexion has improved a lot and the pollution level has been eliminated, her frown has not relaxed, indicating that the problem has not been resolved.
“If the source of the contamination is not found, her condition will only get worse.”
This was the first time Xia Ren encountered such a difficult thing.
Even the original tragedy doll and the hanging rope were traceable, but what was bothering Zhao Rou now was like a real disease, invisible and invisible, not even its tentacles could be found.
“Central sleep apnea syndrome…”
Xia Ren stood in front of Zhao Rou’s hospital bed for a long time.
“She always gets sick at night, right?”
“Um.”
Zhao Tianliang confirmed.
“Then I’ll come back in the evening and let you know in advance.”
“Okay, then I’ll trouble Brother Xia.”
After leaving Siya Hospital, Xia Ren took Lily back home.
Although Qin Yun didn’t ask anything, he still took the initiative to explain what happened to the other party.
Two people can think of a solution more broadly than one person. What’s more, Qin Yun is also a very smart woman, but she has never had the chance to show off.
“insect……”
Qin Yun repeated it in her mouth and said, “Are you sure there is only one insect egg in Zhao Rou’s body?”
“You mean…”
Xia Ren’s eyes opened wider.
He had indeed ignored this possibility before. If he thought about it carefully, the pollution smell emitted by the insect egg itself was very weak. He still used his tentacles to reach into the opponent’s body before he discovered that if he just looked at the appearance, even if he had a second-level perception ability , there is no way to detect it.
Insect eggs were contaminants that he had never seen before, and no one knew what their characteristics were.
“No matter what, I have to find out what’s going on tonight.”
