Mysterious creature sightings

I hung up Yu Zhang's call and picked up Lin Zheng's call, but the content of the call was very boring.

He just wanted to explain that the time to pick her up and the location for the test had changed tomorrow morning.

The time was delayed by half an hour, and the test location was changed from the Special Investigation Branch branch building to a warehouse in the East District.

The warehouse seems a bit big.

Ling Jiangyue saw this battle the next day - people from the Special Investigation Office were also involved, and were placing a group of silk moths, two boxes of bees, and other messy insects, animals, and even plants.

The test materials were placed in most of the warehouse. When the warehouse shutter door was opened, Ling Jiangyue heard Jiang Yuxing wipe his sweat and say with emotion:

"The feeling of being surrounded by creatures really gives me goosebumps all over my body. It turns out that I have been working in this terrible environment. I am applying for a salary increase!"

Lin Jia: "Those who talk nonsense should move those pots of orchids."

Jiang Yuxing: "I'm calling you Xu Jiayan."

Xu Jiayan: "...Don't be shameless. Orchid is reserved for you."

Ling Jiangyue seemed curious, and quietly asked the people around her: "Why don't they like to move orchids? Anyway, it's better than bees, right?"

Lin Zheng led her in circles and said, "There is a kind of bumblebee in the box that feeds on certain types of bees and a few other insects. The bees we brought may not be their food, but that Planting orchids happens to simulate the pheromones of the bees that bumblebees like to eat, attracting them to pollinate."

"It's not easy to observe the pollen falling from plants. It will almost certainly get on it when you move it. Let the bumblebees out then——"

"Whoever moves will be unlucky." Jiang Yuxing added this sentence as he passed by.

Ling Jiangyue looked at the flowerpot in his hand and looked at him with sympathy: "It seems that you are the unlucky guy."

Jiang Yuxing sighed with vicissitudes of life.

They continued to walk forward. Sister Qing was debugging several instruments in the transparent glass door in the middle, staying far away from the creatures.

It was obvious that she was better at dealing with non-venomous and stingless humans than these noisy insects.

Like a passerby who accidentally entered a secret research site, Ling Jiangyue followed Lin Zheng awkwardly and couldn't help but ask: "Are you also going to participate today? What exactly are you going to do?"

"Don't be nervous, it's just to see how sensitive you are to pheromones. Just treat it as a quiz."

"...You are really good at comforting people." This will obviously make me more nervous, okay?

She observed the creatures being released one after another and thought about the purpose of today's test.

The reason for the behavioral test was that she inexplicably awakened Lin Zheng's hallucinations. It should be to check her brain function, such as her mental control?
But looking at the scene, it seemed that they were still aiming for her known ability - her visualization of biological energy and pheromones.

Did they never think of the possibility of mind control, or did they think that her ability to awaken Lin Zheng's hallucinations was mainly the control of pheromones?

Before she could figure it out, Lin Zheng's voice suddenly sounded in her ear: "Did you see anything special?"

She scratched her ears, turned her head and looked into his eyes and asked, "What do you want me to see?"

"This is a test for you to explain your findings."

"That's what I discovered, every living thing has a different color of energy."

"What about pheromones?"

"Hmm...maybe it's the messy thread in the middle?"

"Thread? What thread?" Sister Qing interrupted the topic.

She hesitated to describe it: "The fog with routes is... white wool rubbing out hair, on the foggy road... it may also be spider webs, with dew condensing on it, so you can see clearly... Anyway, it is... relatively dark. There are one or two sudden dazzling flashes here and there..."

Just like her paintings, a lot of literary and artistic processing has been added. The more you listen carefully, the more confused you become.Lin Zheng raised the corners of his mouth.

Sister Qing barely understood her description and adjusted today's test: "All the test materials will be released later. You need to observe their energy, pheromones, or any different ingredients that can be seen. The key points are Watch out for those insects.”

"it is good."

Among the insects, there are some that fly, some that crawl, and some that roll. She can directly see the difference in energy and the subtle differences in pheromones. This information can be used as a method to identify different races.

But these are probably not the results they want...ah, yes. "How many reptiles have different spots on their bodies and are they mating?"

"Yes, the female is in estrus, and the sex pheromones she emits will attract males to come closer." The person who answered was Lin Jia.

"But that male insect was so flirtatious that he hooked up with another female insect."

"You will pay the price for your loveliness," Jiang Yuxing said quietly, "That female insect is no ordinary insect."

Why is this an unusual method? The male insect died on the female insect after exerting some physical strength. Then the female insect spread its wings and flew up, mixing with the group of silk moths and bees.

The female caught a bee in one bite, attracting a swarm of bees to attack her, and was finally eaten together with the male.

After the cruel meal, the bees flew away. One of them seemed to be exhausted halfway through the flight, and fell into the orchid pot, where he was half-eaten by the bumblebees that "came after hearing the news."

That scene made one's scalp tingle.

"Be careful." Lin Jia suddenly touched the back of her neck, causing her shoulders to shake violently and her hair to stand up.

"What are you doing..."

"Didi, beep, beep -" the instrument made a sound, and Sister Qing raised her voice slightly and said, "Now, when the adrenaline secretion is soaring, observe carefully! You can see different things!"

Different things, why are they different?
Those insects were eating me and me. After the chaos, they all stumbled and climbed on the orchids as if they were drunk.

"They seem to be drunk?" Ling Jiangyue asked uncertainly.

Sister Qing: "Did you analyze them through the speed of their movements, or did you see something?"

Then she saw a lot.

Ling Jiangyue thought for a while, and suddenly realized what they expected her to see -

As adrenaline increases, the body will automatically speed up its decomposition and suppression, and the production of adrenaline may increase, allowing her to "see" more clearly.

There must be a poisonous component in a certain insect that can be transmitted, similar to the neurotoxin in Lin Zheng.

They wanted her to see the ways in which toxins spread among insect populations, as well as the location of infection in the body, so as to recreate the method of saving Lin Zheng that day.

She thought about it, the ability to see energy should be able to do this?Neither can use the same-frequency resonance in biological communication.

Then she would give them another little surprise.

"I saw...I saw that some of their colors had darkened, some had been chewed, and some had been assimilated."

Sister Qing was persuasive: "If the bitten insects can be saved through amputation, which part do you think should be discarded?"

Jiang Yuxing acted as an assistant and caught a bee that was said to have been chewed with "all hands and feet". He held it with tweezers and used it as a way to tie up the patient's hands and feet in preparation for an MRI.

The patient was so small that myopic eyes could not see clearly. Ling Jiangyue moved closer and pointed at its head hesitantly.

"It's brain was chewed, but it seems like it can't survive even if its head is twisted off, right?"

"They can't live without being twisted off," Jiang Yuxing said. "They are the first batch of graduates from the research laboratory. They are fully injected with growth hormone. From birth to death, it only takes 10 to [-] minutes. Look, they are mating. The next generation of children will hatch out of the body of a bumblebee...it’s a bit disgusting, so bear with it.”

Ling Jiangyue frowned and looked away: "...It would be better to let it die completely."

Sister Qing said at this time: "There are radioactive elements in the toxic substances spreading among them, which is equivalent to a mark, allowing you and the instrument to detect it more clearly. But the machine can only detect the infection points of radioactive elements , can’t find the original infected person. Can you?”

She searched among the buzzing insects and pointed at the bumblebee against the glass.

"It should be the bumblebee that fell into the third flowerpot. It has a black line on its butt. And their last behavior has the habits of a bumblebee. It seems that they are attracted by the pheromones of orchids."

Sister Qing smiled and said to Lin Zheng: "I said that after some abilities are accidentally used once, the probability of them appearing a second time will be greater. If we can continue to train and develop, in the future..."

"Buzz buzz—" Halfway through his sentence, Lin Zheng's phone suddenly vibrated powerfully.

Everyone was shocked and looked over.
