I take skeletons to the apocalypse

"I've seen this thing in the cultivation base." When Xia Xi saw the spider silk, the information he had seen in the cultivation base appeared in his mind.

"Puppet spider silk, sample No. A12 of the breeding center. It is a spider silk produced by a mutant puppet spider. Once this kind of spider silk is fused into the blood of other people, it can control the behavior of the other person."

"It also has great restrictions. First, the puppet thread must be integrated into the opponent's flesh and blood for an hour before it can take effect. Second, the time to take effect is very short, only about 1 minute. Finally, if the controller cannot suppress the consciousness of the controlled person, Control would fail."

Hearing Xia Xi's words, Zhao Mo sighed faintly. The samples of the cultivation base appeared here, which can basically confirm that the disappearance on the island was caused by a doctor secretly.After going around for a lifetime, it seems that he still can't escape the fate of being tricked by the doctor and betrayed by his teammates.

"First use the hedgehog needle to make the person fall asleep, and then cooperate with the puppet spider silk to control the opponent to the dead end of the monitoring, and restrain the person. It seems that this is the opponent's way of attack."

Chao Mo speculates on the process of what happened to the missing person.While thinking about the actions of the collaborator hiding in the dark.

"There are some anesthetics on the hedgehog needle, which can make the person who pricked it unaware. The puppet spider silk wrapped around it is brought into the body and dissolved in the blood. Controlling a person who is already asleep is better than controlling a person who is awake. Much easier."

According to He Yue's account, he can only be regarded as a pawn placed in front of the stage. The real danger is another person hidden behind the scenes. This person acted about an hour after He Yue placed the hedgehog needle, and controlled the sleeping People go to the monitoring area where they have been tampered with, and then they are taken away by some means.

Chao Mo didn't know how he hid the missing people and where he took them.Even if he found the hedgehog needle and the puppet spider silk, he still couldn't identify the murderer at all.

The investigation froze at this step. Seeing that no more useful information could be obtained, Chao Mo ordered He Yue to be imprisoned, and took away the found puppet spider silk and hedgehog needles.He also ordered people to carefully check the items carried by the ships every time they went out and returned, but they still found nothing

For half a month in a row, no one disappeared on the island. Although the murderer and the missing person were not found, there were no more disappearances either.

The weather is getting warmer and summer is here.The scorching sun steamed the sea water, sending some moisture to the island, and the activities of mutated animals and plants around the island became more frequent.

In order to clean up these mutated creatures and prevent harm to residents without abilities on the island, the people with abilities on the island had to increase their patrol range.In the dark, the invisible enemy has not yet been dealt with. Before the patrol team set off, Chao Mo instructed them carefully, and equipped them with the latest detection equipment and synchronous cameras.

Unexpectedly, all members of the patrol team disappeared before they set off.And the place of disappearance is the laboratory with the strictest defense.

There are a total of five patrols, and before departure, they went to the laboratory to collect and test the newly developed machines on their bodies.As a result, contact was lost after entering.

Xiang Lei, who was in charge of the patrol work, didn't think about it at first. After all, the laboratory needs to eliminate interference, and some energy and signals have been shielded for a long time.But an hour later, seeing the departure time, and the five people who went in for the test hadn't come out, Xiang Lei had a bad feeling. After reporting to Chao Mo, he immediately organized another team of supernatural beings to block the experiment All the exits around the room, and then led someone to open the door of the laboratory.

But the inside is already empty.The five supernatural beings, researcher Jing Yue, and seven of his assistants all disappeared.

This time the disappearance was slightly different from the previous ones, the method was more brutal, and the monitoring network and security system of the laboratory were destroyed.But because the network here is independent of the headquarters, after everything was cut off, Chaomo did not receive any notification.

There were no traces of fighting in the room, and there was still half-drunk tea on the table.There are several pieces of equipment for testing on the table.The test instrument was still buzzing, and like the previous few times, the people in the room seemed to disappear out of thin air.

Originally thought that he had found the puppet spider silk, although he failed to catch the murderer, at least it cut off the other party's actions.Unexpectedly, just two weeks later, the enemy reached out to the most heavily guarded laboratory on the island.

Everyone's nerves tensed up again.

Zhuguang executives headed by Chaomo once again gathered at the entrance of the laboratory.

Jing Lan's face was chilly, and his whole body exuded a terrifying aura, his eyes were stained with deep ink, and he swept across everyone present dangerously, and finally landed on Chao Mo.

His voice was a little hoarse: "Didn't you say that the research institute is the safest place in the entire base? Didn't you promise me that you would protect him well? Why did my uncle disappear?"

"Sorry, it was my negligence." Chao Mo could only apologize.His face looked haggard, and there was no trace of blood on his pale face, but his eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes.

From the first disappearance on the island to the present, he has not been able to sleep peacefully for more than a month.During the day, we have to deal with daily affairs and investigate every possibility of missing persons.When I close my eyes at night, I will think of my previous life, the knife cut on the flesh, as if there is no end to torture.

Chaomo did assure Jing Lan that the laboratory is the safest place.That's why Jing Lan is willing to put Jing Yue here with peace of mind.He himself thinks so, the laboratory has the strictest security system and independent monitoring.Jing Yue is the master here, and he can call every defensive device here.Although he doesn't have supernatural powers, in this laboratory, he can deal with even fourth-level supernatural beings.

"If there is something wrong with him, our cooperation will end here." Jing Lan said in a cold tone: "I will go to the doctor to settle the score in my own way."

Xia Xi sighed softly and took the other's hand.He knew that in Jing Lan's heart, Jing Yue was his last family member in the world, and as long as he faced Jing Yue's matter, he would not be able to maintain absolute calm.

"Jing Yue is a very smart person, and the laboratory is his home field. It is impossible for people to disappear without a reason. Let's listen to the clues first."

Jing Lan was slightly suffocated by Xia Xi's grip, with a terrifying aura.Although his face was still cold, his eyes softened like ice and snow had just melted, revealing a ray of panic and sorrow hidden inside.

He squeezed Xia Xi's hand back hard, trying to draw a little courage from the other's hand to face the possible bad news.

Xiang Lei: "The five supernatural beings are all reborn and have level four supernatural powers. At eight o'clock this morning, they were notified to come to the laboratory to try on the latest set of patrol equipment. At 08:30, five people entered the experiment Afterwards, the door of the laboratory was closed, and there were only five supernatural beings in the laboratory at this time, the person in charge of the laboratory Jing Yue and his assistant Liao Shanshan."

"An hour later, I noticed that it was time for patrolling, but the five patrolling personnel did not leave the laboratory. I tried to call the communication of the team members to inquire about the situation, but found that the communication could not be connected. Then, I tried to contact the staff in the room. The remaining six people, without exception, have their communications shut down."

"After realizing that there might be a problem, I led more than [-] team members to surround the entire laboratory. After entering the door, I found that there was no one in the laboratory, and there were no obvious signs of fighting around. All the alarms and monitoring in the laboratory were destroyed. But the external monitoring is still intact."

Xiang Lei expressed his own judgment: "According to the peripheral monitoring, no one entered or exited the laboratory within an hour. Therefore, these missing people and potential murderers can only leave the laboratory through the underground."

Gu Ming's eyes lit up, and he clenched his right fist and slammed his left hand hard: "Underground! By the way, the underground of the island has always been a blind spot for our search. Maybe other missing people were also hidden underground by them! It must be so, Captain, we will now..."

"No!" Before Gu Ming could finish speaking, Chao Mo rejected him with a solemn expression.

Chao Mo grabbed the shovel and dug hard the soil on the side of the road. The soil was soft and soon formed a pit. Clear water collected in the pit, and the pit turned into a puddle.

He said: "It's not that I haven't considered the possibility of people hiding underground. It's just that this is an island, the groundwater table is high, and excavation is difficult. It is not a small project to dig a hidden space underground. It was difficult to do it under our noses, so I ruled that out first."

"Now it seems that if other impossibilities are ruled out, then the other party can only hide underground. But to sneak into the ground in such a short time, the other party's methods are more terrifying than we imagined. You chase after him and rummage, instead It’s easy to fall into the trap of the opponent.”

"But we can't just keep watching!" Gu Ming became anxious.

"I'll do it." Xia Xi took a step forward, her eyes met Shang Chaomo's.

"Thank you." Chao Mo nodded to Xia Xi apologetically.The only person here who has the ability to quickly check the underground situation is Mr. Black Crow.The words he just foreshadowed were intended to ask the black crow to help. Unexpectedly, before he invited him, the black crow had already understood what he meant, and stood up on his own initiative: "Skeleton's strong point is to escape, and I want to find out The situation underground here is not controlled by the other party, so we can only rely on Mr. Black Crow."

Xia Xi tore off the bone beads in his hand, and the beads turned into skeletons, which dived into the ground in an instant.The search was faster than expected, and Xia Xi quickly found the missing person underground in the laboratory——

But they can hardly be called human beings anymore, because lying on the ground are neatly arranged human bones.There are seven in total, which is exactly the same as the number of people who disappeared this time, but the fluctuation of consciousness above has completely disappeared.

Different from the crisis that Chaomo had expected, they were just laid carelessly in the underground of the laboratory, as if waiting for someone to find out.

Xia Xi's body swayed slightly, her expression hidden in the hood froze, and she unconsciously let go of Jing Lan's hand.

Disappearances one after another, the surveillance destroyed at the scene, everyone's perfect alibi, only the doctor's puppet spider silk he had contacted, the murderer who couldn't be found, the human bones hidden in the ground, and... Jing Yue in the laboratory.

Xia Xi connected the known clues one by one, and the long-standing suspicion finally settled down.

Why can't there be a trace of connection in the identity of the missing person?Because the other party doesn't care who the missing person is at all, the other party just wants everyone to believe that the murderer is him, the only skeleton here, Xia Xi.
