i can hear your voice

The two didn't stay in the ward for too long. When they left, they ran into Pei Yannian and Tai Chi in front of the elevator. They saw Pei Yannian standing motionless in front of the elevator with his hands in the pockets of his white coat. Tai Chi jumped up and pressed the elevator down with his paw key.

Ruopu boasted: "It's amazing!"

Shi Yan and Tai Chi looked at him together, then turned their eyes away together, one lowered his head, the other raised his head, they looked at each other.

Then Tai Chi took the initiative to walk to Shi Yan's side, rubbed his trousers, Shi Yan squatted down and touched Tai Chi's head, touched Tai Chi's head, then stopped, and then one person and one cat seemed to have completed some ceremony, Shi Yan started again Standing up, Taiji walked away from him and walked back to Pei Yannian.

Pei Yannian smiled and said, "This is the communication between cats? The cat boss accepts younger brothers by licking their fur, right?"

Shi Yan: "..."

It's impossible for him to lick someone's hair, he doesn't even lick his own hair, human beings don't have that habit, okay?

Pei Yannian: "It won't kiss me or let me touch it. Tell it, tell it that I am its master now, and I will provide it with food, drink and entertainment. It will have to pay a small price—let me touch it."

Shi Yan: "Brother Pei, it understands what you say, and the reason you don't let it be touched is because it doesn't like people to touch it."

Tai Chi is already very smart, and has been with people every day for this year, and now he can basically understand human languages, and even understand some human characters.

"It really understands what I say!" Pei Yannian said, "When it doesn't understand, it pretends not to understand, right?"

Tai Chi played with his tail innocently, as if he didn't hear anything.

Pei Yannian tilted his head and squinted at it: "Let me tell you, your snacks for today are gone."

Tai Chi's tail froze for a moment, and then continued to flick it as if nothing had happened.

Shi Yan was a little speechless, he didn't expect Brother Pei to have such a naive side - he cares about a cat.

Ruopu snickered.

The location of the Rain and Mist Forest Ability Research Institute is not far from Gwacheon Town—their adventure team entered the Rain and Mist Forest from Gwacheon Town last time, so the way to go to the research institute is similar to that time. You need to take a plane to Yucheng, and then change to a car to go to the research institute.

Shi Yan booked the ticket, bought the best seat, the seat was spacious and comfortable, Ruo Pu felt a little regretful, he thought he could be closer to Shi Yan.

"There's a lot of noise on the plane, let me help you block the sound." Shi Yan said in a low voice.

"No need." Ruopu looked at him with a smile, "I can get used to it."

Shi Yan: "The space of the plane is not too big. I can notice anything within this range. You can rest."

In some fixed and relatively safe areas in Longgang, such as the supernatural school, Shi Yan often blocks the "excessive" voices for Ruopu, but when he goes out, he usually does not do this, because everyone defaults to going out Be vigilant from time to time.

Ruo Pu didn't reject Shi Yan's kindness, he stretched out his arms, held Shi Yan's fingers and shook: "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Shi Yan shook his hand back and smiled slightly.

After arriving in Yucheng, they did not immediately set off for the Rain and Mist Forest. They planned to take the transport vehicle of the Yucheng Ability Bureau the next day.

The two wandered around the city, and then chose a restaurant with a large storefront and a lot of customers to eat.

"The ability trigger is also used here." Ruopu said, looking at the wall-mounted machine on the wall.

"Hmm." Shi Yan looked around. Not only was the store equipped with triggers for abilities, but some of the customers also wore bracelet-type triggers. It may be that the other party's abilities are unstable, and the Ability Bureau requires him to wear them. He put it on for fun.

After the food was served, Ruo Pu was very worried about taking food for Shi Yan, making the children on the next table who were asked by their parents to eat independently stared at them all the time.

Halfway through the meal, the child lost his temper and started crying, which didn't stop for a long time.

Ruo Pu shook his head slightly, although Shi Yan blocked the noise for him, he could still hear normal voices, so what he feels now is that the children's cries are so penetrating, they hit people's hearts directly...

"Take him out and cry, don't influence everyone here!" A male customer raised his opinion loudly to the child's parents.

The kid was probably frightened by him, and cried even harder.

The child's father got angry: "What are you yelling at? Can't you talk well?"

"I yell? Is my voice as loud as your son's?"

The two big men carried it on, and they shouted at each other. Suddenly, the alarm light on the trigger of the ability, and then the alarm sounded loudly, which meant that someone's ability was out of control. Leaving the store, the atmosphere is tense and chaos is coming.

But, very suddenly, the siren stopped - Shi Yan "turned off" the out-of-control person's ability.

The guests hesitated for a moment, and then, as if time was running backwards, the person who stood up sat back on his seat, the person who picked up the backpack put down the backpack again, and the person who put down the chopsticks picked up the chopsticks again...

The child's father was quite cautious, he hesitated, called his wife, hugged the crying child, and prepared to leave.

Ruo Pu asked Shi Yan: "Is that him?"

If it is, he cannot be allowed to go away.

Shi Yan: "No, it's the one in the blue shirt."

The person who lost control of the ability was not the child's father, but the male customer who couldn't stand the noise of the children. This person seems to be out of control now - he should have found that his ability has disappeared.

Shi Yan took out a bracelet-style trigger from his backpack and said, "He doesn't have good control, so he needs to wear a bracelet."

"Well, I'll go." Ruo Pu reached out to take the bracelet from Shi Yan's hand, then got up and walked towards the male customer.

After approaching, Ruopu handed the ring to the male customer and smiled: "Sir, you need to exercise your control."

"..." The male customer showed an angry look, but before he could do anything, he felt a severe dizziness, his body was shaking, and he was about to fall, Ruo Pu helped him onto the chair.

The male customer lowered his head and rested his arms on the table to relieve dizziness.

Ruo Pu stood beside him waiting for him to wake up, and at the same time secretly frowned. When he stunned this man with sound waves just now, he found that there was actually a crystal in his body.

After the male customer slowed down, he looked up at Ruopu, surprised and angrily said, "What did you do to me just now?"

"I made you dizzy for a while, don't worry, there will be no sequelae." Ruo Pu took out his ID card and showed it to the other party, "It is against the rules to use abilities indiscriminately in public."

"The Fourth Team of Longgang Armed Forces," the male customer looked at Ruopu, and then exclaimed in surprise, "You are the 'Little Captain'!"

If Pu is the captain, or the general captain, he has several squadron leaders and small captains under him, but because of his young age, some people call him "little captain".

Ruopu smiled: "You know me? Where's your ID?"

The male customer handed over his certificate honestly.

Ruo Pu checked it and found that it was a real certificate, he said: "Forget it this time, I won't notify your armed forces. Be more careful in the future."

"Okay, thank you, thank you." The male customer was very grateful.

"This bracelet is given to you. If you don't know how to use it, you can find the manual online." Ruopu put the bracelet on the table.

The male customer thanks again.

Ruopu turned and went back to his desk, sat down and talked with Shi Yan about the matter.

"...He was stopped by you as soon as he lost control, and the siren stopped after only two rings. In this case, even if the armed forces came over, they would only criticize him verbally, so there is no need to notify the armed forces, but I Enter his certificate into the 'risk list', and in the next six months, the armed forces will regard him as a key observation object."

After listening to it, Shi Yan said: "It was handled very well."

Ruopu looked at him and smiled, but soon became serious: "There is one more thing, he has crystal essence in his body."

"..." Shi Yan frowned, "Is it the crystal essence in the rain and fog forest?"

Geographically, this place is very close to the Rain and Mist Forest, and the crystal essence in the opponent's body is likely to come from the Rain and Mist Forest.

"I don't know." Ruo Pu said, "Tell me, is it possible that his irritability and loss of control are related to the crystal essence in his body?"

Shi Yan: "I don't know. I think Xie Weiming has always been calm."

"Maybe he has good self-control." Ruo Pu said, "Do you remember Lu Jun? I think he is also a little irritable and out of control."

Lu Jun was a former employee of the Yuncheng Ability Bureau. He defected when Skywalker attacked the Yuncheng Ability Bureau. He was later arrested in Longgang, and then died in the Longgang Ability Prison. The murderer has not been found until now. .

——No accident, it should be silenced by their own people. That person is probably lurking in the prison, but because it is not yet suitable for a thorough investigation of the crystal essence, so far the murderer has not been found.

Shi Yan said: "Don't 'guess', let the research institute do the research."

Ruo Pu nodded.After a while, he said, "I feel that Mingqing must come over to help."

"Ok?"

"Let him check the one just now and the other crystal essence carriers here to see where their crystal essence came from. He is efficient and effective."

"Yeah." In fact, Shi Yan felt that it was not good to rummage in other people's minds, but at this stage, there was no other way to quickly and effectively find the source of Yucheng's crystal essence.

Ruo Pu said: "You can call Lin Zirui over. When we go to the Rain and Mist Forest, he can help us pack things."

Shi Yan: "Are they willing to come?"

"Yes, Lin Zirui has to obey the deployment arrangement. For Song Mingqing, he came here to work part-time and make money."

"……Um."

Lin Zirui and Song Mingqing arrived in Yucheng two days later, and then Song Mingqing stayed in Yucheng to investigate the matter of Jingsui, while Lin Zirui went to Yuwu Forest Research Institute to meet Ruopu and Shi Yan.

The research institute is still in a semi-construction state, some areas have been built, but many areas are still under construction.

Ruo Pu acts as a tour guide for Lin Zirui: "This is the experimental area, and some laboratories have already started construction; this area is the breeding area, where experimental animals are raised; there is the botanical garden, where plants are planted; that row is the dormitory, The building next to it is a cafeteria, the food here is quite delicious, whether it is vegetables or meat, it tastes better than Longgang and Yuncheng, it may be because of the water and soil..."

They walked around the research institute, during which they met many acquaintances from the fourth team - their duty here was to be responsible for the safety of the research institute, everyone greeted each other warmly, and made an appointment to have dinner together when they were free.

"Is the security situation here okay?" Lin Zirui asked Ruopu.

"It's okay. It's still under construction. Such a loud noise would usually scare away wild animals—I mean mutated animals."

"Oh yes."

Jingcheng, the capital of Zhongzhou.

In a spacious conference room, there are only a few people sitting around a huge conference table—no more than ten people, and most of them are looking at a young man, he is Xie Weiming.

Xie Weiming looked down at some documents.

"Ruopu is about to enter the Rain and Fog Forest." Someone spoke.

"En." Xie Weiming responded, indicating that he was listening.

"He may bring some precious samples from the Rain and Fog Forest. Shouldn't the research institute over there hand over some to Jingcheng?"

"..." Xie Weiming raised his eyes, his gaze was very sharp, and the speaker was shrunk by him. "Okay, there's no need to bring up such a trivial matter."

"……Yes."

Another person said: "With more samples, the research on the crystal essence over there may be carried out very quickly, will it bring us danger?"

——The people present are all crystal essence carriers, and they all belong to Xie Weiming's branch.

"Maybe." Xie Weiming said, "But we also need to understand the crystal essence more fully. It is not necessarily a bad thing for someone to help us do this."
