Alien Executioner

"Does this make you feel a sense of crisis?" An Ran didn't expect Sister Tang to hate Li Yun so much.

"I'm afraid he'll stab me in the back." Sister Tang stared at the man. "As far as I know, he used all means to achieve his goals, even killing his own father-in-law."

An Ran heard this, curiosity flashed in her eyes, and she looked at the man.

Li Yun raised his hands and shrank his head:

"Don't look at me like that. Okay, okay, I admit it, but this is a good thing for you, isn't it? My father-in-law is also a very bad guy, and I am getting rid of a scourge for the people."

"This gives me a reason to be wary of you." An Ran nodded towards Sister Tang. She was not actually afraid that Li Yun would do something behind her back.

But in order to make Sister Tang feel at ease.

She turned around and looked at the tentacles that were infinitely extended, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, wondering why the tentacles had not yet found their target.

She couldn't hear the noises coming from every corner of the wastewater treatment area because there were too many noises, too many and too complicated to distinguish.

But her tentacles sensed something moving deep inside, so she had some expectations.

Did you find the Centipede Man?

This thought flashed through her mind, but she remained silent. Because the light was too dim, no one noticed the abnormality of these tentacles.

An Ran's turning around attracted the attention of the two people. Sister Tang and Li Yun both saw tentacles crawling on the ground.

Sister Tang's eyes moved in the direction of the tentacles: Scar

"You... look hungry, are you looking for food?"

"No, they noticed some movement, most likely a centipede, but I can't confirm it. I can't quite read their minds."

"Think...Think? Them?" Li Yun didn't quite understand. "Aren't they under your control?"

"Of course I control him." An Ran pondered for a few seconds, but still chose not to tell him about this.

Macrophages have independent consciousness and autonomous behaviors, which is unbelievable and inconceivable to other alien species.

The tentacles were still searching, extending for hundreds of meters, and turned around again, looking up and down Li Yun's body.

"You said you knew Song Zhengguo?"

"To be precise, we have collaborated before, on an experiment. He is a crucial figure, and our goal this time is to take him away."

"It seems that I am about to find the truth. Everything is connected." An Ran motioned for him to continue.

Li Yun nodded:

"The original intention of this experiment was to save some children. The reason was... several leaders of the experiment had a common tragedy. Their children had a very special disease that prevented them from living past the age of twelve. You should also know that this was the predecessor of the artificial alien experiment. The Devouring Sorrow was implanted into the children to turn them into aliens. Only in this way could they survive."

Li Yun paused and lowered his voice:

"So the children who went through this experiment were the children of these leaders, one of whom I think you already know."

"Who?"

"Gu Zhilan."

Chapter 183 Dark Interaction (Thirteen)

When she heard the name, Sister Tang was stunned for a moment. She looked at An Ran, trying to see the emotions in this girl's eyes.

An Ran did not show surprise and shock, which was rare, but remained silent for a long time.

She thought about all kinds of things, and this time she also included Gu Zhilan in the whole incident and reviewed it, realizing that the flower shop organization also played a significant role behind the scenes.

But it makes sense. Although Mr. V and Li Yun are in the Alphabet Organization and work under Shang's nose, they have formed a team of their own, which may have been helped by the flower shop organization.

But Gu Zhilan...

An Ran never asked Gu Zhilan about the specific details and process of becoming an artificial alien. She only thought that she was a member of the flower shop organization and became an alien because of another independent experiment.

I remembered what Dr. Ned said in the flower shop.

The entire laboratory in the flower shop base exists because of Gu Zhilan, which is equivalent to separating the laboratories related to the Alphabet Organization. Therefore, when experiencing these laboratory events, An Ran never thought of Gu Zhilan.

So one of the people who led the original experiment was her mother? Or was it her father?

An Ran properly excluded Li Fei from the list of suspects, and finally thought about Gu Zhilan's father.

The former head of the operations department, an elite executive who was transferred to District 9 on his own initiative, disappeared for many years and was finally confirmed dead.

Gu Simiao.

In An Ran's impression, all she knew about Section Chief Gu was his name, because before she entered FACA, Section Chief Gu had already been confirmed dead. She didn't know much about him and had never met him.

There are examples of humans falling in love with alien species, but they cannot produce offspring. Therefore, the existence of Gu Zhilan proves that Section Chief Gu is not an alien species.

Unless they are not blood relatives.

But this possibility is not very high. After a brief thought, An Ran did not get any useful information, so he just raised his head slightly to signal Li Yun.

"Four people led the experiment at that time. They were Gu Simiao, the former head of the Operations Section of FACA headquarters, Song Zhengguang, Lao V and his wife."

Li Yun decisively spoke of the experiments that took place more than ten years ago. These initial experiments should have been completely buried by history.

"So, as you can imagine, the subjects of the experiment are the children of these four people, that is, three girls."

"Two of them are Gu Zhilan and Song Yixue."

"But I don't know who the third girl is, but she's very important."

"It's related to the Fallen Angel Experiment, right?"

"Yes, these three girls were implanted with Devouring Sorrows, which were carefully selected at the time. The girl surnamed Gu was supposed to have a Fallen Angel implanted, while Song Yixue was supposed to have a Legworm implanted."

"As for the third child..." Li Yun recalled for a while, but he seemed to not remember it clearly.

"They used the Research Department as a place for experiments. When they found the Devouring Sorrow of the Fallen Angel, they discovered another Devouring Sorrow."

"That belonged to the fallen angel's daughter." An Ran's voice was devoid of emotion, "So you took it away too."

"These three Devouring Sorrows have the same characteristics, all of them are half-SSS level." Li Yun licked his lips with a dry mouth.

"This is because the experiment was too crazy at the time. No one had ever tried it before. The four of them didn't dare to gamble with their daughters' lives, but they also couldn't bear to see their lives dying. Instead of using ordinary Devouring Sorrow, it's better to use Half-Sorrow. Perhaps the effect and risk will be better."

He spread his hands:

"That's what they were thinking. Song Yixue was the first child to undergo this experiment, and the results were quite successful, followed by Gu Zhilan."

Sister Tang listened quietly. She didn't dare to say a word during this process. This was a very shocking secret and she was afraid of missing a word.

"But when Gu Zhilan was conducting the experiment, a dispute arose. They accidentally found a diary that recorded the key data of the artificial xenomorph experiment and some precautions. This meant that someone had actually completed the artificial xenomorph experiment a long time ago."

"One of the entries in the diary records in detail the devouring pain of the fallen angel. The person who wrote the diary is most likely a researcher from a hundred years ago. In short, the key point is the devouring pain of the fallen angel's daughter."

Li Yun gave a sarcastic smile.

"It mentioned the origin of the Fallen Angel's daughter. This Devouring Sorrow is actually not complete. It was dug out from the Fallen Angel's stomach after his death. Who would dare to transplant an incomplete Devouring Sorrow? It was almost impossible to find a half-dead Devouring Sorrow at that time, and the diary also said that using other Devouring Sorrows was too risky."

"So this is the beginning of the dispute." An Ran understood.

"Yes, Chief Gu and Old V both wanted to use the Fallen Angel's Devouring Sorrow to save their daughter. As for the defective Devouring Sorrow? In their eyes, it's a time bomb. So guess who got the transplant?"

"Gu Zhilan." An Ran felt that this was not a correct answer, but only Gu Zhilan survived.

"No one has transplanted the Devouring Sorrow." Li Yun shook his head.

"At that time, Section Chief Gu was the second-in-command of the entire FACA and had great power. At that time, the position of director was just a supervisory department. As you know, the direct subordinates of the Director of the Countermeasures Bureau were the Intelligence Department and the Internal Affairs Department. So he used this power to threaten Old V and carried out the transplant experiment in advance."

"But similarly, the Research Department at that time was not a department of the Countermeasures Bureau, but an independent one. That's why Old V had the opportunity to replace the Devouring Sorrow."

When he came to the latter part, Li Yun retracted his sarcastic smile and said softly:

"The Devouring Sorrow in Section Chief Gu's daughter is the defective daughter of a fallen angel, and Old V ran away with that one."

Is this the reason why Gu Zhilan has to go back to the flower shop base every week... An Ran thought.

Recalling the angel with spread wings in the water tank in the flower shop laboratory, it was a broken angel.

"But the matter was soon exposed. When Section Chief Gu found out, Old V had already left District 3. In order to recover the Devouring Sorrow of the Fallen Angel, he took the initiative to choose to be transferred. Before the transfer, he dispatched hundreds of members of the Operations Section stationed at the headquarters, as well as thousands of people carrying out missions around the world, and finally locked onto District 9."

"In order to avoid suspicion, he chose to go out in person and applied for a one-year transfer. District 9 is a very chaotic place, and almost everyone thought he was a special agent who came to purge the aliens and stabilize social relations, so no one suspected him."

"But he disappeared soon, and we don't know if he is still alive." Li Yun sighed.

Chapter 184 Dark Interaction (XIV)

There was silence for a full five minutes, and everyone could smell the smell of rust in the air. It was absolute silence.

The sound of water pipes flushing could be heard in the distance. An Ran and Sister Tang had to digest this incident that was shocking enough to shock the entire FACA. Li Yun and some insiders should have kept it secret. It was not a good thing for this matter to be exposed.

Li Yun's baritone voice was still echoing in his mind. Every word he said was repeated over and over again. This incident seemed to be the beginning of everything, laying the foundation for the beginning of Weihausen's artificial alien experiment.

There is no trace of Weihausen to this day, as if he had disappeared from this world, and there is no trace of him to this day.

There are rumors that he escaped from the Third District, or was recruited by the Alphabet Organization. In any case, the task of finding him has been handled by the security department.

"I believe it. He doesn't seem to be making up stories." Sister Tang leaned close to An Ran's ear. She was already used to close contact with the tentacle queen.

An Ran also believed that this was not a fabricated story. Gu Zhilan's appearance in this story gave it authenticity and made everything seem reasonable.

However, there are still some suspicious points, and An Ran cannot feel the fluctuations in Li Yun's emotions.

He was too calm when he told this story, not like someone who had experienced the story, nor like the teller of the story.

What's more, he said the secret lightly, but he had no reason to deceive himself. He was his own partner at this time, and keeping secrets became the basis of his partnership. He clearly knew his identity, but did not make much use of it. He only told Mr. V, which made this cooperation come into being smoothly.

He seemed to be a person who did not know how to take advantage of others and maximize his benefits, and only used his secrets as bargaining chips for cooperation.

An Ran's thinking direction was gradually changing towards interests, and she immediately realized this.

Is my thought gradually spreading towards the monster?

Take a deep breath, even if it doesn't make sense, just to let others know that you are about to speak:

"I know that the Alphabet Organization has been maintaining the Fallen Angel Experiment, and Mr. V betrayed Gu Zhilan's father because of the Devouring Sorrow, but he did not transplant it to his daughter, but... gave it to the Moroccan Manor. I think he took the initiative to hand it over, right?"

"I can't deny that this is indeed contradictory behavior."

"You don't know the reason either, don't you?"

"From what I understand, his daughter died before the transplant, but we have no way of confirming that."

Li Yun yawned and explained lazily. He seemed happy to waste time talking about these seemingly insignificant things.

"The person who took over this experiment at that time was the leader of the cousin branch. We called him Master Jiu. He was very interested in this and was looking for someone who could match the fallen angel Devourer. The most perfect body was actually Old V's daughter."

“It’s a bit of a coincidence.”

"Yes, what's interesting is that Jiu Ye didn't know the identity of Old V. After all, even this old man didn't know the existence of the branch. Soon Old V claimed that his daughter was dead. I think it was to protect her."

"But his behavior is ultimately contradictory." An Ran knew that this question was probably only answered by Mr. V himself. ①

"Who knows? He is a very mysterious person. I have observed Old V's reaction and can conclude that his daughter is most likely still alive. Maybe... another Devourer was transplanted? But no matter what, we have no way of knowing about the third girl."

An Ran walked to the unconscious woman and squatted down. She calmed down her mischievous heart and looked at her carefully.

Long time.

"If I remember correctly," she said slowly, "this woman is the daughter of Storm. I have seen Storm. He and Master Jiu are in the same group. The so-called Master Jiu is higher in rank than Storm in the Alphabet Organization."

"I know what you want to ask." Li Yun finally stood up, glanced at Sister Tang, and gestured with his hand.

"Any more cigarettes?"

"I kind of like the feeling of sitting here and listening to your stories." Sister Tang lit a cigarette and handed it over.

"Women's cigarettes are not as bad as I imagined. If we had known each other earlier, we would have been good friends."

Li Yun took a deep breath and looked around. This time his vision was much wider, but still dim.

She looked at An Ran and expressed her confusion:

"The fact that this woman is in our team doesn't mean she knows anything. At least it's a mutually beneficial relationship. I'm very good at keeping secrets." Li Yun looked a little distressed. "But it seems that she seems to have guessed your identity. Have you met before? I can swear that this has nothing to do with me."

"I don't know if I've seen it before." An Ran felt that this blind and crazy woman was a greater threat.

A woman with eyes somewhat similar to hers, glowing with rose gold in the darkness, stunningly beautiful.

Perhaps it was a previous encounter? She recalled the past memories, but some of them were already blurred.

Should I keep someone who knows my secret?

"She seems to be a madman who likes killing." An Ran gave an appropriate reminder, "She also knows my secret."

"Don't worry, with her somewhat morbid personality, she won't tell the secret." Li Yun smiled wickedly.

"Is that a guarantee?"
