When I stood there, confused by these translucent liquids, Lin Qianyi came over.
"Sijiu, where are the bodies of Li Shengli and the others?"
"Sister Lin, I don't know either" I wondered, "Their bodies should be here obviously, why are there only these liquids left now?"
I touched my head and said with some embarrassment: "It's not like their bodies are rotting, right?"
My words were originally nonsense spoken out of embarrassment, but who knew that after hearing this, Lin Qianyi turned serious, and looked at me even more warily.
"Rot? Forty-nine, even if a human body rots, there will still be bones left behind. What's more, Li Shengli and Officer Mu just died today. How could they rot into a puddle of liquid?"
I spread my hands and was about to say that I didn't know, when Lin Qianyi suddenly took out the pistol again, pointed it at me and said: "Sijiu, there are actually no corpses here at all, right? You just want to find an excuse. , just tricked us here. Speaking of which, are you really Lin Sijiu?"
Lin Qianyi¡¯s reaction made me really want to laugh. She had just said she trusted me, so why did she doubt my identity again?
However, the serious expression on Lin Qianyi's face at this moment made me really unable to laugh. I could only raise my hands and try my best to explain: "Wait! Sister Lin, I am really 49! There are really corpses here! There are three corpses in total, two belong to Li Shengli and Officer Mu, and one is an impostor pretending to be me!"
As I said that, I slightly bent my left hand, pointed with my finger to the spot where the liquid was on the ground, and said, "Sister Lin, where there is water, their corpses were originally lying there!"
¡°What about their bodies?¡±
"I don't know!" I felt so wronged that I almost cried. "There was no one else in the camp except us. Could it be that those Gu insects were resurrected later? But Professor Tang had already confirmed that they were all dead. Got it!"
My words made Lin Qianyi think of something. She took a flashlight and began to scan the floor of the shower room, as if confirming something. I only heard her softly shout "one" several times. "Two", "three", and then he turned around and walked out.
It wasn¡¯t until Lin Qianyi left the shower room that I came back to my senses. I didn¡¯t care if she was still doubting me, so I followed her.
Outside, I saw Lin Qianyi running toward the east of the archaeological base with a flashlight, so I chased her and asked her, "Sister Lin, did you think of something?"
She said while running: "If what you said is true, then it is possible that these corpses disappeared."
"What's possible?"
"I just checked. There are three pools of unknown liquid on the floor of the shower room, which are exactly the same as the number of corpses you mentioned. In other words, those three pools of unknown liquid are probably the corpses of Li Shengli and others. Don't forget Well, those corpses are not human corpses, but the corpses of deformed Gu worms! After death, people will rot into skeletons, and what will happen to those Gu worms after death, in fact, none of us know. Maybe, those Gu worms After death, over time, it will dissolve and become a liquid.¡±
When I heard this, I said excitedly: "Really?! But Sister Lin, where are you going now?"
Lin Qianyi turned back, looked at me and said: "Of course I'm going to find evidence for you. I happen to know a place. If my guess just now is correct, as long as we go there, we can prove whether you have You¡¯re lying to us.¡±
Not long after, we arrived near the kitchen on the east side of the camp. At this point, I completely understood what Lin Qianyi meant.
According to what Professor Tang told me in the past, although the members of the archaeological team were on the verge of total annihilation after being attacked by deformed Gu insects, they also killed most of the Gu insects that had turned into human forms at that time. . And those dead transformed Gu insects were finally piled in the kitchen by Professor Tang.
If this is the case, then the rotting corpses we saw in the kitchen when we first arrived at the archaeological base must be those of the deformed Gu insects. And if Lin Qianyi's guess just now was correct, then after these few days, those corpses must have turned into a pool of liquid.
Sure enough, when we approached the kitchen, a smell similar to that in the shower room immediately hit our faces. Lin Qianyi was the first to walk in. Not long after, she stuck her head out at the kitchen door and gave me a sign to come in.
Holding a flashlight, I carefully walked into the kitchen without LinYi Yi reminded and already discovered the situation here. Thinking back to three days ago, when we first arrived here, we saw rotting corpses all over the place. But now, those corpses are just like the corpses in the shower room. They have long since disappeared, but they have been replaced by Yes, there were piles of slime where the corpse had fallen. Perhaps it has evaporated a lot in the past three days. The size of each puddle of mucus on the kitchen floor is much smaller than that in the shower room. But if we look carefully, we can still easily distinguish the puddles on the ground. There is some familiar liquid on the beach.
I squatted on the ground and reached out to touch it. Well, yes, it was still a familiar touch, and it was still the salty and rotten smell.
Now the mystery of the missing body has been solved. It seems that the difference between the human form transformed by this kind of deformed Gu insect and the real human being, apart from the fact that it has no internal organs, is that after the death of the human form transformed by the Gu insect, its body will be dead in less than a day. It decayed rapidly over time and finally melted into a puddle of liquid.
Looking for a towel to wipe my hands in the kitchen, I said to Lin Qianyi: "Sister Lin, can these prove my innocence?"
Lin Qianyi rolled her eyes at me and said, "You're lucky. If the person who came with you just now was Officer Hu, he would have shot him if we couldn't protect him."
I smiled and said, "Yes, yes, fortunately it's you, Sister Lin."
"Don't be ridiculous." Lin Qianyi looked around and said, "Now that it has been proven that what you said is true, let's go back as soon as possible. If we go back later, I'm afraid Officer Hu and the others will think that I was tricked by you. It¡¯s harmed.¡±
I quickly nodded in agreement, and the two of us hurried back to the city gate.
But halfway through, Lin Qianyi suddenly stopped and ran towards the west of the archaeological base. I caught up with her and asked her what was wrong, but she told me that it was probably too late to go back like this. Nearly an hour had already passed since we had been so fussy just now. Now that we were going back empty-handed, Officer Hu might not only be suspicious. I and even Lin Qianyi will become suspicious. After all, they already knew about the ability of the shape-shifting Gu bug from me. Therefore, instead of just going back and being suspected by others, it is better to find a way to find evidence that can make them believe what I said.
evidence? I don't understand. Now the corpses of those Gu insects have turned into a pool of thick water. Without those corpses, what kind of evidence can make Officer Hu and others believe what I say?
While talking, Lin Qianyi had already led me to a certain area of ??the archaeological camp.
I recognize this place. It is near the warehouse where Officer Mu had an accident that day.
I was wondering how Lin Qianyi led me here, but I saw her suddenly coming to the warehouse where Officer Mu was attacked, and lying on the ground.
I asked her what was wrong, but Lin Qianyi pointed to the bottom of the warehouse and said there might be something she was looking for.
One thing to say here is that the ground environment in the volcanic cave we are now in is not completely flat. The ancient city ruins are fine, but here at the archaeological base, the ground is basically full of potholes and uneven levels, so Some buildings in the base are built on top of potholes. Between the bottom of these buildings and the ground, there will be some potholes that people can get into.
And under the warehouse in front of us, there happens to be a gap big enough for people to crawl in.
I bent down and shined a flashlight into the gap, but I didn't see anything.
"Sister Lin, what are you looking for?"
"You will know in a moment."
After Lin Qianyi said this, she put the flashlight in her mouth, held the gun in her hand, and carefully climbed into the gap.
At first, I could still use the flashlight to see Lin Qianyi crawling in the gap, but after a while, Lin Qianyi crawled deeper and deeper, and finally the light of the flashlight could no longer reach her.
I waited outside for a while and saw that there was no movement inside the gap for a long time. I couldn't help but start to worry about the situation underneath, so I called out from the gap: "Sister Lin, are you okay? What's inside?" What's the situation?"
I called outside for a long time, but there was no response from below. Just when I thought something must have happened to Sister Lin, and rolled up my sleeves, ready to go down and fight, Lin Qianyi's voice finally came from below.
"I'm fine! Sijiu, you must have never imagined that there is a hole under this warehouse!"
Burrow! What kind of cave?
I said a little anxiously: "Sister Lin, what are you looking for down there? Come up quickly!"
"Wait a little longer! I'm dragging something in my hand, it's not that easy to get up!"
