Earth Survival Guide

Chapter 647 Special case investigation
As soon as it was dawn, Gu Tao sat up from the sofa, rubbed his face, looked at Xiaofeng who was too hot to sleep in the cooler living room after eating hot pot, stretched himself, and then He poked Xiaofeng's dog's head with his finger...

"What are you doing..."

Xiaofeng wriggled around, then leaned close to Gu Tao's feet, and hugged his leg...

Immediately, the scorching body temperature surged up Gu Tao's feet, and the temperature was brought to the whole body through the peripheral circulation of the blood, but the cold winter made Gu Tao sweat within 20 seconds...

"Wow..." Gu Tao twitched his feet back: "Roasted hoof..."

After finally moving his feet away from Xiaofeng's arms, he went to the kitchen to clean the pots and pans, but when he was washing the dishes, he suddenly felt a red-hot iron plate sticking to his body from behind, and he felt terrible. The skin on the back was scalded until it sizzled.

"Eh……"

Gu Tao shrinks forward, but there is no way to avoid it.

"Why don't you touch me..."

Xiaofeng hangs behind Gu Tao in a daze, with her chin resting on his shoulder, her whole body is like a piece of red-hot iron...

Gu Tao continued to wash the dishes, but his skin was covered with a layer of nano armor to ensure that he would not get burned or soft burns. Xiaofeng hugged his waist from behind: "I want to hatch eggs..."

"I'm sick."

Gu Tao said very dejectedly: "There is nothing the fox doctor can do."

Xiaofeng touched Gu Tao's arm with his hand, pressed his pulse gate, then counted silently, then tilted his head: "Really! Wait a minute, I'll get you an egg , just eat it and you’ll be fine.”

"It's useless." Gu Tao turned around and grabbed her wrist: "I will find a way."

"Yeah! It's okay, I'll help you." Xiaofeng nodded seriously: "Who made me your boss, I really can't help you."

"Yes, yes." Gu Tao pushed Xiaofeng's hair behind her ears: "I'm going to go to work after I make you breakfast."

"You've worked too hard, can you rest for a few days?"

"Maybe I don't have time for vacation during this period, there are too many things to do." Gu Tao sighed: "Go wash up first, remember to eat later, lunch is in the refrigerator, take it out to microwave for 5 minutes, and fix dinner by yourself .”

"Are you leaving so early?"

"Yeah...the dust python's body has arrived. I want to take a look."

"Well, work matters. You're less and less of a fake now."

Gu Tao smiled and went out to the base without saying a word, holding a piece of corn.When Gu Tao entered the dissecting room with the corn in his mouth, the pale corpse of the dust python was already on it. He was sitting by the side observing the appearance of the corpse while eating the corn.The elite forensic team next to him had already prepared all the equipment and props. After eating the corn, Gu Tao put on his gloves and said, "Start."

After the dust python died, the surface of his skin was actually covered with fine scales, which were so tough that ordinary scalpels couldn't cut his skin at all.After careful inspection, Gu Tao found that there were four scars on the dust python body, which were typical puncture wounds, and the wounds were deep.There was not much external bleeding from the wound, but judging from the depth, it should all be internal bleeding.

After testing, the skin of the dust python is much tougher than body armor, and conventional weapons cannot penetrate it, but the wound on his body is in the shape of a crescent, and the cross-section of the wound shows that the weapon that stabbed him is very thin and shaped Very strange, such a shape...

"Satania, make a match."

"No match."

Gu Tao frowned and observed again, then took out the laser knife: "Let's take a look at the cause of his death first."

For the first time, Gu Tao insisted on participating in the dissection of a humanoid and recording the data in person. Such an opportunity can be said to be rare, but the overall body structure of the dust python is too strong and the dissection is too laborious.

Cutting the skin of the dust python with a laser knife, Gu Tao immediately discovered the problem. Under the layer of skin as hard as the stratum corneum, there is actually another layer of skin. This layer of skin is softer and thinner than the upper layer. The skin is sticky to each other but not so tight.

But Gu Tao didn't know whether it was the structure of his body or because of some reason, so...he asked a senior zoology expert, Satania, to analyze it.

"According to the situation matching results, the skin state of snakes changes before moulting, during which time snakes will be at their weakest."

"Oh?"

Gu Tao carefully peeled off the two layers of skin, and then frowned slightly: "Satania, please link to Principal Li."

Soon, the image of Principal Li appeared in the upper left corner of Gu Tao's eyepiece. She was doing yoga on her big balcony. After seeing Gu Tao, she wiped off her sweat and smiled, "Teacher Gu, what's the matter?"

"Principal, are you afraid of corpses?"

"Don't be afraid."

"Then prepare yourself."

Gu Tao turned the camera target and aimed at Dust Python's body: "This."

"His Royal Highness!" Principal Li immediately exclaimed, "What's wrong with him?"

"Assassinated to death."

Principal Li was stunned immediately, she threw down the towel directly: "Where are you now, I will rush there immediately."

To study snakes, it is natural to come to snakes. Although the principal is not a professional scholar, he is of the same kind after all. His understanding of these things is bound to be much deeper than that of a blank person like Gu Tao.

An hour later, Principal Li appeared in the dissection room. She was wearing a mask, but when she saw the dust python's body, there was something in her eyes that allowed people to see her mental state at a glance.

"His Highness Chen was actually killed..."

The headmaster murmured in disbelief, but Gu Tao shook his head and said, "Now I want to find out the cause of his death. If we don't find out, once this matter is exposed, the situation we have built with great difficulty will be broken. Dust python's status tall, right?"

"One of the twelve halls, with a high status."

"Ah."

Gu Tao picked up the outer skin of the dust python with tweezers, and looked at Principal Li.

"Dian Chen stopped shedding his skin many years ago, but he is too old and is dying. So in order to ensure the continuous renewal of body functions, he will force himself to shed his skin every certain number of years, so that he can Rejuvenate once. You may not know that the snake demon is very fragile when shedding its skin, so it usually hides in one place for many years, brewing an opportunity to complete this transformation. The time for each snake demon to shed its skin is the most precious The secret, even close relatives will not know."

Gu Tao pointed to the wound on Dust Python's body: "What about this one? Have you seen this wound?"

"No, the sharp weapon of the idle magic weapon cannot pierce the skin of Chendian." The principal touched the wound with his hand: "I have never seen such a weapon."

"Then you know, who can know the time of his molt?"

Red Devils?It definitely can't be the Red Devil, the Red Devil was already frightened at that time, not to mention attacking the dust python, he is not that kind of temperament, he is like a poisonous snake lurking in the shadows, if he can not confront others, he will definitely not Confront people head-on.

Moreover, as the old leader of the Red Devils, Dust Python knew the depth of Dust Python, and he would not act rashly.Besides, judging from the time of death, when Dust Python died, Red Devil was sitting outside the test site and was being harassed by Gu Tao with the recording of "caonima" non-stop, so he can rule out the suspicion.

So who will it be?Not only can you know the time when the dust python sheds its skin, but also know the location of the dust python?You must know that if these big monsters want to hide their identities, even Gu Tao will find it very difficult to find them. The ability to hide their breath 100% is very terrifying.

Cutting open the dust python's second layer of skin, his internal organs were exposed, and Gu Tao could see the fatal injury at a glance.

In order to determine whether a fatal injury is fatal, in addition to the location, it also depends on the reaction of life around the wound. The four wounds pierced the heart, spleen, liver and kidneys of the dust python, but what surprised Gu Tao was that the wound that caused death was not the heart. Although the dust python was seriously injured by the penetrating wound to the heart, it did not kill him immediately because judging from the film covering the heart wound, he had already begun to recover on his own at that time.

The real fatality is the internal bleeding after puncturing the spleen, because although the abdominal cavity is full of blood, you can clearly see the other internal organs of the dust python have healing marks, but the hole in the spleen is very clear and vivid, and there is no recovery at all. Mark of.

"The last touch is this angle."

Gu Tao condescendingly simulated the assassin's angle at that time: "So, in what state will it be like this?"

"It's almost three hours between Chen Dian's first wound and his last wound." Principal Li raised his head and looked at Gu Tao: "During these three hours, Chen Dian has been repairing himself. It's just that he was too weak. He was originally like this. It’s impossible for his injuries to hurt him.”

"Ah."

Gu Tao circled around the dissecting table: "Then under what circumstances would the assassin allow him to live for three hours?"

"Maybe you want to get some secrets from him?"

"Yes!" Gu Tao nodded and said, "The last secret must have been revealed, but what secret does he hold?"

Principal Li frowned and put his hand into Chen Mang's body for a while, then suddenly froze on the spot: "The demon bead of Chen Palace is gone!"

"Demon bead?"

"Yes, demon spirits who have practiced for a certain number of years will have a demon bead. The demon bead can guarantee the immortality of the soul after death. The demon bead in the Dust Palace was taken away."

"Then what else can it do besides this function? Alchemy?"

Principal Li shook his head and remained silent for a moment: "You might as well ask Fenghuang what her demon beads can do."

The matter turned to Fenghuang again. Under normal circumstances, the demon spirit would not reveal the function of the demon bead to outsiders. This is the case with Principal Li. Although she does not distrust Gu Tao, it is because this thing is of great importance, even life.

And can Phoenix say it?
Gu Tao doesn't know, but that doesn't stop him from asking.
