After these words came out, there was a short and strange silence below.

Yan Zhijin supported the wall and got out of bed, put on his slippers, and slowly moved to the door.

"Would you like me to help you?" Benjamin stretched out his arm gentlemanly.

"No need." Yan Zhijin refused his help without thinking, shook his dizzy head, and walked towards the elevator.

Benjamin shrugged.Slowly followed behind him.

When Yan Zhijin went down to the lobby on the first floor, what he saw was the people who promised themselves, and the elegant and quiet Yan Hui.

Yan Hui leaned forward slightly, looked at Edward with dark eyes, and asked politely: "Excuse me, what do you mean by what you just said?"

Edward no longer looked like he was agitated and arguing just now. He trembled all over, and squeezed out a weak voice from his throat: "I said, that poisonous lizard...it...it..."

The following words seemed to be stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say anything.

"Say." Yan Hui nodded.

"What's wrong?" Yan Zhijin walked behind him.

Yan Hui's stern demeanor suddenly relaxed.He took the initiative to greet Yan Zhijin, and helped him to sit on the sofa next to him.

As if he was afraid of frightening some fragile creatures, he said softly, "I was asking them what they were arguing about just now."

"What are you arguing about?" Yan Zhijin shifted his gaze to Edward.

Edward seemed to have aged ten years overnight, and his arms were trembling uncontrollably.He swallowed his saliva, glanced at Yan Zhen from the corner of his eye, and said, "That lizard..."

"He said we sent the lizard to scare him." Matt leaned back against the door frame, folded his hands on his chest, raised his eyebrows, and said, "He said that because of what happened yesterday, we hold a grudge against him and want to take revenge on him."

He gave a disdainful "tsk": "Who are you, do you deserve our revenge?"

Edward blushed and argued, "Who are you? I haven't had any enemies with anyone else!"

"It's not us!" Matt slapped the door frame impatiently, took out his dagger, and rubbed the sharp blade in the sun, "I advise you to be careful!"

Edward shrank his shoulders and stopped talking, but his eyes were still resentful.

Yan Zhijin learned from Shen Zhiyu that Edward believed that his behavior of protecting George yesterday offended Matt and the others, and Matt and the others put that terrifying lizard in his house in order to retaliate, hoping to take advantage of him not paying attention. poison him.

"That lizard died a long time ago," Yan Zhijin said, "It died before it showed up at your house."

Edward froze for a moment, lowered his head, rubbed the corner of his clothes, and said, "I, I don't know. Before dawn, I heard a noise. I didn't expect it to be a lizard flying towards me. I grabbed the chair After driving it away, it attacked even more fiercely. When I backed up, I accidentally bumped into the cabinet and passed out."

"Are you sure, it flew towards you by itself?" Yan Zhijin asked.

Even though he was sick and not tall, Edward still panicked.He said confusedly: "It should be... No, I'm not sure, maybe I just saw it, or, or they used some machinery to make it move? It was not yet bright at that time, and the lights in the room It didn't open either."

"Did it go in through the window, or somewhere else?" Yan Zhijin continued to ask.

"I don't know," Edward said with a wry smile. "I can't remember anything. It was there when I opened my eyes. I don't know where it came from, a window, a water pipe, or a hole in the wall."

"So, there's no idea why it's there."

"Even if they didn't put it, this thing has nothing to do with them!" Edward suddenly gained momentum, pointed at Matt, and said loudly, "This is not a natural creature at all, it must be Duke Douglas...it must be He is going to bring disaster to us. They are followers of Duke Douglas, this thing must have something to do with them!"

Matt unsheathed his knife again: "I told you that it has nothing to do with us!"

Yan Hui also narrowed his eyes.

"But, Duke Douglas, it's a snake." Yan Zhijin said calmly, "He's not a lizard."

Edward opened his mouth slightly, and stared at him blankly.

After a few seconds, he lowered his head and said intermittently: "But lizards are very similar to snakes. Besides, even if he is a snake, can't he drive lizards? In this place, who else can create such a snake? thing?"

"Why don't you guess that his 'just' and 'tolerant' god did it?" Matt glanced at Snowf, his tone raised.

Snowfowled his face, and asked full of gunpowder: "What did you say?"

Edward also exclaimed: "How could God create such a terrifying creature!"

"Leave my words here. This matter has nothing to do with us." Matt inserted the dagger deeply into the desk at the front desk, and then slowly pulled it out. "If you keep talking nonsense, don't blame me for being rude."

Edward shuddered, his head drooping even deeper.

Matt loaded the dagger, held his head high, and walked away with a cold expression.

Yan Zhijin stood up with the strength of Yan Hui, and solemnly said to Edward: "We will find out the origin of that creature. You don't have to worry about safety for the time being."

Although his voice is low, he is very powerful, which makes people feel a sense of trust naturally.

He half leaned on the words, and with the support of the other party, he limped into the elevator.

Shen Zhiyu followed closely and almost bumped into Benjamin who was following at the same time.

He rubbed his shoulders and asked displeasedly, "What are you doing too?"

"Professor Yan and I have something to discuss." Benjamin said casually.

"What's so good..." He was in the middle of speaking, and realized that Benjamin was Yan Zhijin's colleague, and he heard that he was a rookie in the field of biology in country A. They really had a lot to talk about, so they could only wave their hands resentfully, "Okay , let's talk."

Qi Li'an also took a step forward, squeezed into the crowded elevator, and said gently: "I also have some problems."

"You go out." Yan Zhijin said coldly.

Qi Li'an's smile faltered.

He said kindly, "Zhijin, don't you need to alienate me like this? The most urgent thing now is to find out the origin of that lizard."

"The elevator is small, so it's easy to be overweight." Yan Zhijin didn't listen to him, and winked at Shen Zhiyu.

Shen Zhiyu invited Qi Li'an out knowingly: "This lizard has made everyone panic, please young biologists to solve the doubts for everyone and prevent panic."

He spoke politely, but pressed the elevator door close button very quickly.

Qi Li'an also wanted to find opportunities from Benjamin.

Benjamin waved his hand regretfully: "Sorry, I have some private questions to discuss with Professor Yan."

At the door of the room, Yan Zhijin signaled Shen Zhiyu to go back to her room first.

Shen Zhiyu asked worriedly: "Is there any problem? Is that lizard... really dead?"

Yan Zhijin repeatedly assured him of his own safety, but he didn't force him, he just said, "Then I'll stay outside and respond in time if anything happens."

"This is too tiring, you go back to your room and rest." Yan Zhijin refused.

"I'm just sitting outside, why am I so tired?" Shen Zhiyu moved out a small stool from his room, put on his headphones, brought up the mobile game interface, and waved to him, "Stop talking, stop talking, I want Go up the score."

Yan Zhijin wanted to say something else, Shen Zhiyu directly called up a chat interface, and said sweetly: "Ahem, I want a video."

Yan Zhijin closed the door without hesitation: "We'll finish talking soon."

"I remember that the name of your brother's boyfriend is on the world's richest man list," Benjamin said with interest, "is he very rich?"

"Ah."

"With his investment, the conditions in your laboratory must be very good?" Benjamin said enviously.

"I don't know, we usually rely on state funding." Yan Zhijin returned to the bed, and the tense strings finally relaxed.

When he was talking to Edward and the others downstairs, he had to rely on the stimulation of the chill from Yan Hui's body to keep calm, otherwise he might fall asleep at any time.

This time the fever was too severe. Even though his body temperature was not high, he had a feeling that his consciousness would be burned dry along with his body temperature.

He returned to the warm and comfortable bed, leaned on Yan Hui's shoulder, held warm water with just the right temperature, and slowly blew the white smoke rising from the water, and asked, "Where did you find that meatball? Did you find it?" Probably, you didn't completely separate them, so that the lizard can still use its power to move after death."

Benjamin stroked the dead lizard's skin and said mysteriously, "This is the power of Duke Douglas."
