From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star

While Lu Heng was looking at the case information, Chen Linian tried to ask: "Lu Heng, when you were in the capital, did you find any conflicts between people with powers above level 30?"

Lu Heng did not intend to reveal the truth to Tie Xue, because Tie Xue was not necessarily monolithic.

Since the Creator Organization has the ability to invite a highly confidential scientific research academician to join and control the political situation of a country, it is not impossible to infiltrate the Iron-Blooded Investigation Bureau.

It wasn't that Lu Heng didn't believe Jian Qing and Chen Linian, but that the secret couldn't be known to the fourth person.

No one can keep secrets in front of powerful psychic powers.

Lu Heng continued to look at the case information, especially the laboratory report of 013.

When he saw the information on the laboratory report, his pupils dilated imperceptibly.

Because the time of death of 013 written on the laboratory report was a week ago.

This means one week before the test time, not one week from now.

However, the time from when 013 was killed to when he entered the autopsy room was less than 3 hours. How could he have died a week ago?

"Didn't this report say that the body could still move before death that night? Why was the time of death a week ago?" Lu Heng pointed to 013's autopsy report.

Chen Linian explained: "This is the strange thing. This corpse is very strange. It was still able to move on the night of the crime, but the results of the autopsy showed that the blood had been coagulated for some time. The forensic doctor was also unable to give an accurate time of death. , we can only roughly judge that the time of death is more than a week.”

If this situation happened in the past, it would be a bizarre and unsolved case, but in the abyss era, it is entirely possible.

Jian Qing answered: "I came here to ask you to help me take a look. Do you know the reason why this body can still move after being dead for a week?"

"There are many possibilities. Dementors can do it." Lu Heng replied casually and continued to read the report.

When dementors control humans, they will eat their "souls". In fact, the person is dead at the time, but he will still move under the control of the dementors and show signs of a living person.

When Lu Heng saw the photo of 013's corpse, he pointed at the heart and asked, "There is a hole in the heart. What weapon caused this?"

Chen Linian has read the case information over and over many times, and also talked with the forensic doctor responsible for the autopsy.

He shook his head and replied: "The forensic doctor can't tell what kind of weapon caused it. What is certain is that the heart is missing."

"The heart is missing?" Lu Heng continued to scroll down, trying to find more information.

But when the autopsy report came out, it only recorded that the heart of the corpse was missing, and there was no more information.

Jian Qing came up with an idea: "Is it possible that something ate his heart on the night of the crime?"

In the abyss world, there are many demons who like to eat hearts.

Therefore, this situation is very common.

However, Lu Heng knew very well that there was no heart-eating demon that night.

If a demon appeared and ripped out 013's heart and ate it, there was no way it wouldn't have been discovered at the time.

Lu Heng pointed to the photo of 013's corpse and asked, "Can you confirm the identity of this corpse?"

If the identity can be confirmed, the investigation will be much easier.

Chen Linian shook his head: "No identity information was found. Although the DNA information was extracted, there was no match in the gene bank."

Lu Heng picked it up and joked: "This corpse is burned like this, and you can still extract DNA information. The technology is pretty good."

013 was hit by Dragon Breath Slash, burned by dragon flames, and burned black.

"DNA information has been extracted from the bones, but unless a matching gene can be found, there is no way to determine the identity." Chen Linian helplessly folded his hands.

Lu Heng continued to look through the case documents, looking for useful information. As he was doing so, he asked, "Are there any other suspicious places? Or were there anything unusual found at the scene?"

Chen Linian replied: "There is another corpse. Although it has also been burned by flames, it can be seen that it was in the form of a werewolf when it died. Therefore, the identity of this corpse can be initially confirmed. It is called Derek Wolf. Do you know ”

Lu Heng raised his eyes and glanced at him, with a faint smile on his face, and replied, "We know each other, maybe."

There are more than a dozen superpowers in Daxia who have returned from the lava plains. Wang Zhehan and Zhao Liwen have all seen Derek Wolfe's werewolf form.

Another responsibility of the Iron-Blooded Investigation Bureau is to investigate information about the Abyss battlefield. Every time a person with powers returns from the Abyss battlefield, they will be questioned.

Therefore, Ironblood probably knows about what happened in the lava plain.

If he denies meeting Derek Wolfe at this time, it will be exposed.

The Iron-Blooded Investigation Bureau came to ask me for questioning, and they probably confirmed Derek Wolfe's identity first before suspecting that it was related to him.

"Where did we meet?" Chen Linian continued to ask.

"In the abyss battlefield, the world of the black iron dwarves." Lu Heng answered the question truthfully.

"How's your relationship with Derek Wolfe?"

"It's not very good. It can only be regarded as acquaintance." Lu Heng spread his hands.

"Do you know if Derek Wolfe has any enemies?" Chen Linian asked again.

"This...he was in conflict with many superpowers in our country in the abyss battlefield." Lu Heng spread his hands again.

When he was in the lava plains, Derek Wolf initially followed Charles Watt and had a conflict with the powers of Great Xia.

If that counts as feuding, then there are a lot of enemies.

"Who do you think can kill Derek Wolfe in this abyss battlefield?" Chen Linian continued to ask.

Lu Heng thought for a moment, pointed to himself, and replied: "It would be okay if Wang Zhehan and I team up together. In addition, there is a spiritual master who calls himself Xie Shien. There is also a three-person team from Park Hyun-jin. Together we can It’s possible, but this person is not from Daxia.”

Chen Linian kept his normal expression and asked, "Will you kill him?"

"If he offends me." Lu Heng did not firmly deny it.

Chen Linian picked up a photo of Derek Wolfe's corpse, pointed at the photo and said: "The wound in this photo has a flat bone cross-section. The forensic doctor judged that it was cut with a sharp blade. Among the people you mentioned, besides you, Who can do it?"

Lu Heng threw the case information back on the table, his expression turned cold, and said, "Where are you trying me?"

Jian Qing quickly explained: "Don't react so fiercely. If you have a conflict with this Derek Wolf, we will definitely help you. If a black man of unknown origin commits crimes in the country, just kill him. It's no big deal." Yes. We just want to understand what happened."

Lu Heng looked up at her and said coldly: "Captain Jian, I have always regarded you as a friend, are you going to use such words to trick me?"

So far, there is no mention of Liu Lanying in the information on this case.

In other words, this case information is incomplete.

Liu Lanying disappeared from the nursing home, and it was impossible for Tie Xue not to know about it.

Jian Qing sighed and replied: "Don't worry too much. It is true that some of the case information is confidential. Moreover, the superior transferred this part of the content, and neither I nor Inspector Chen have read it."

Hearing what she said, Lu Heng had already guessed what was going on.

As a family member of Chen Xuesong, Liu Lanying will definitely be protected by the state.

Liu Lanying encountered danger in the nursing home. In order to protect her safety, all information about her was transferred.

…

After the case information was thrown back on the table, a photo slid out, a photo of a burnt bird carcass.

When Lu Heng saw this photo, he reached out to pick it up, looked at it carefully, and asked, "Where did this photo come from?"

Chen Linian explained: "This was found in a nursing home. It looked like the body of some kind of bird. It fell near the unnamed body."

At the end of his sentence, he pointed to the photo of 013's corpse.

Lu Heng immediately recalled the situation at that time, when he used the Dragon's Breath Slash to kill all the birds and black crows in the sky.

It didn't matter what kind of birds they were, as long as they were flying in the sky, they were all killed.

When 013's body fell, another smaller bird carcass did fall nearby.

Lu Heng saw it at the time, but thought it was just an ordinary bird.

After all, the greening of the nursing home is very good, and trees are planted on both sides of the street outside. It is normal for a few birds to appear.

It's just that it feels a little strange to see pictures of this bird now.

"What kind of bird is this?" Lu Heng asked, holding up the photo.

Chen Linian shook his head: "I don't know. The forensic doctor did an autopsy and said he had never seen this kind of bird. He also asked a professor of ornithology to take a look, but he didn't recognize what kind of bird it was. It may be that the burn was too severe. Only bones were left, and the claws and wings were burned away."

He paused and then added: "In addition, energy level reactions were detected in this bird, and it is speculated that it may be a mutated creature."

After the abyss descends, not only humans awaken, but wild animals may also mutate.

When animals mutate, the mutation directions are diverse, and even the skeleton structure will change.

After Lu Heng read the case file, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Chen Linian quickly stood up and asked, "Do you have any clues to provide?"

Lu Heng thought for a moment and replied: "This dark werewolf seems to be a member of an organization. I think the case is related to this organization."

Regarding the organization of the Creator, it is impossible for Daxia officials not to know any information, but they should not know much.

Lu Heng didn't want Iron Blood to waste time on him, so he simply named the Creator Organization to see if they could find out anything.

This can also put some pressure on the Creator Organization.

The Creator Organization has the ability to control the political situation in Fusang, but it should not be able to control Daxia.

To deal with this mysterious organization, using state power is the best strategy.

…

After returning from the Iron Blood Investigation Bureau, Lu Heng continued to practice swordplay at the Wuliqiao training ground every day as before.

After this period of practice, the artistic conception level proficiency in the swordsmanship realm has reached more than half, and the advancement speed is very fast.

This evening.

Just when Lu Heng finished his training and was about to go home.

A crow crows in the sky.

When Lu Heng heard this voice, his body froze, his mind was thinking rapidly, and his right hand was ready to draw the sword at any time.

Then, a black crow circled down and turned into a human form five meters in front of Lu Heng. It was wearing a black feather cloak and its appearance could not be seen.

013 Black Crow!

At this moment, Lu Heng's heart skipped a beat, and he slowly rubbed the fingers of his right hand, ready to draw his sword and strike with thunder at any time.

However, after 013 Black Crow appeared, it did not attack, but said:

"028, I am your contact person 013. There is something I want to confirm."

What's going on?

Lu Heng's mind was confused for a moment, and he felt that things were not the same as he expected.

013 was obviously killed by himself. If 013 had a powerful means to escape that night, then when he appeared again, he should not come to question, but bring people to kill him.

However, he appeared now, as if he was here to make a connection, not to ask for punishment.

Why is this?

Lu Heng could only think of one possibility, that the 013 in front of him was not the 013 who died that night.

Only this reason can explain why the 013 in front of him would react like this.

Lu Heng quickly analyzed it in his mind, and then determined how he should react.

After being stunned for half a second, Lu Heng looked puzzled and asked: "You...are not dead?"

013 Black Crow asked calmly: "What I want to ask is what happened outside the sanatorium that night? Didn't you participate in the task of hunting down defectors?"

This question once again confirmed the previous guess.

The 013 in front of him did not know what happened that night.

So which of these two 013s is the real one?

Or, are both real and the one that died is the clone?

Thinking about the dead body of 013, there is obviously something wrong with that body.

The missing heart and the strange time of death all indicate that there is something wrong with that body.

And the strange bird that was burned to death.

And the black crow that 013 turned into.

Lu Heng finally thought of a possibility, a very rare abyss monster.

If it is that kind of abyss monster, everything makes sense.

Because the "clones" separated from this abyss monster have no spiritual connection with each other, and they must communicate face to face.

In other words, the dead 013 will be wiped out with all his memories.

And the 013 in front of him has no idea what the dead "clone" has experienced.

When Lu Heng thought of the true identity of 013 Black Crow, he didn't show it on his face, but pretended to know nothing and questioned: "013 is dead, how can you prove your identity?"

013 Black Crow replied coldly: "028, since I know your number, there is no need to prove your identity. Tell me, what happened that night?"

Lu Heng frowned and thought for a moment, and replied: "I don't know why you don't remember, but that night, we were chasing 027.

"Later, we split up and you and the werewolf found 027 in the sanatorium and fought.

"When I arrived, you had been killed, and then the Iron Blood people came, so I had to leave quickly."

013 Black Crow was silent for a moment and questioned: "Can 027 kill me?"

Lu Heng spread his hands: "He has helpers, and I suspect he has an official background."

013 Black Crow fell silent again. If 027 has an official background, things will become very tricky.

The information Lu Heng gave was messy, but the information seemed to be true.

For example, if 027 has an official background, this information seems to be true.

After all, Chen Xuesong's work has a high level of confidentiality, and it is very reasonable for the person who replaces Chen Xuesong's 027 identity to have an official background.

013 Black Crow thought for a moment and continued to ask: "Have you found out the identity of 027?"

Regarding this question, Lu Heng had already expected the contact person to ask, so he answered directly: "It should be Chen Xuesong's student, but I don't know which student it is."

013 Black Crow thought quietly for a moment, did not continue to ask questions, but began to issue orders:

"Now issue your mission, in addition to continuing to hunt down 027, you need to find a way to retrieve some of 031's flesh and blood."

Lu Heng widened his eyes and asked: "Retrieve the flesh and blood of the werewolf?"

013 Black Crow confirmed: "Yes, retrieve Derek Wolf's flesh and blood."

Lu Heng looked puzzled and asked: "No, The body was taken away by the Iron Blood Investigation Bureau, how can I get it? Moreover, the body was burned black, are you sure there is still flesh and blood? "

013 Black Crow narrowed his eyes and asked: "How do you know it was burned black?"

Lu Heng replied as a matter of course: "I have been to the Binhai headquarters of the Iron Blood Investigation Bureau, and I have also read the case files."

013 Black Crow said in a tough tone: "Since you can see the files, there is a way to contact the body and retrieve Derek Wolf's flesh and blood. This is an order."

Lu Heng showed a trace of displeasure in his eyes and replied: "It depends on the situation. We'll talk about it when we have a chance."

While speaking, Lu Heng was also thinking, why did the Creator Organization take Derek Wolf's flesh and blood?

This werewolf is definitely impossible to survive, so what is the use of the flesh and blood?

It should only have research value.

And 013 said that Derek Wolf has the strongest self-healing ability at this stage.

Then his cells should be hiding the secret of this powerful self-healing ability.

The Creator Organization has always been interested in biological technology, so it is not surprising that they are studying Derek Wolfe's self-healing ability.

After the discussion, Lu Heng took a step forward and got closer to 013 in front of him, even revealing a dangerous look in his eyes.

013 Black Crow immediately shouted: "What do you want to do?"

"You are obviously dead, but now you suddenly run out. Of course, I want to confirm whether you are a member of the organization." Lu Heng took another step forward.

013 snorted coldly, spread his wings and turned into a black crow, flying into the sky.

Lu Heng moved his palm, but finally did not do it. Now 013 does not know what happened that night. Killing it again will make things more troublesome.

013 Black Crow flew into the sky, leaving behind a cold sentence: "Due to your mistake, I lost a clone, you need to be responsible for it. You'd better catch 027 as soon as possible. Otherwise, I can't guarantee how long the organization can tolerate you."

Lu Heng directly retorted: "You are so capable, why don't you catch it yourself? If you make me angry, I will chop off your clone."
