Chapter 206: Bugs Living in the Brain
The experimenter grinned and said, "Are you here to join us? Great, lie down on the operating table quickly, I promise, I will let you live a life like heaven!"
After saying that, the experimenter was about to reach out to grab Shen Yijin and Nan Mingcheng, wanting to forcibly tie them to the operating table and perform experiments on them.
Shen Yijin and Nan Mingcheng retreated quickly. She dodged the experimenter's clutches while complaining in her heart.
Now that people are dead, can't they live a life like in heaven?
Nan Mingcheng kept staring at the experimenter's eyes. He saw many different human figures in the experimenter's eyes. An idea flashed in his mind, but before he could grasp it, the idea disappeared without a trace.
He was so absorbed in his thoughts that the experimenter took advantage of the opportunity and grabbed his arm.
He was being pulled from two directions and felt like he was about to be torn in half.
"Hiss—" Nan Mingcheng saw that the experimenter had no intention of letting go, so he turned to Shen Yijin and said, "Yijin, let go first. I'll find a way to get out of this."
Shen Yijin was a little worried, but seeing that Nan Mingcheng looked confident, she hesitated for a moment and finally let go.
As soon as she let go of her hand, Nan Mingcheng was dragged onto the operating table by the experimenter.
Nan Mingcheng fell onto the operating table due to inertia, and the next moment, the scalpel stabbed towards his heart.
The Evil-Slaying Sword suddenly appeared in front of Nan Mingcheng's chest, blocking the scalpel that was piercing his heart.
The sword and the scalpel collided, and the recoil force made the experimenter wake up briefly for two seconds.
The experimenter's eyes wandered: "Who are you..."
Just after he finished saying this, the red light in his eyes flickered a few times, and then he returned to his previous weird and playful look.
"Everyone is waiting for you in heaven, why don't you join us!" The experimenter failed to hit Nan Mingcheng, and angrily waved the scalpel at him again.
But Nan Mingcheng reacted faster than him and knocked the man out with the Sword of Evil-Slaying.
Shen Yijin quickly stepped forward, secured the experimenter to the operating table, and hurried to check if Nan Mingcheng was injured.
Nan Mingcheng didn't care about himself. He said excitedly: "I figured it out. The souls of the owners of those specimens on the iron rack are now in the bodies of the experimenters. They are the ones who came out just now!"
Nan Mingcheng was closest to the experimenter just now and could observe some details better.
He found that the experimenter's posture of holding the scalpel was not standard and looked particularly unfamiliar.
After noticing this, his fleeting thought came back.
The experimenter was afraid of the specimens, not only because they might suddenly appear next to him, but also because he saw the owners of the specimens in his dreams, and there might be traces of their lives in his home.
Nan Mingcheng's guess sounded reasonable, but Shen Yijin had calculated for the experimenter before and did not predict that he was possessed by a ghost, nor did she find any negative energy on the experimenter.
"He doesn't have any negative energy, and he hasn't been possessed by a ghost!" Chen Yijin said, "He can't sleep well every night, but that's all psychological. Didn't we just analyze it? He is like this because he is affected by the power of the fox fairy."
Although the experimenters conducted experiments on thousands of subjects, there was not much negative energy in the laboratory. This might be because most of the subjects were young children who had no idea what was happening and did not generate much resentment after death.
Nan Mingcheng still insisted on his point of view: "He didn't look like he was affected by the power of the fox fairy just now. Didn't you notice that there were shadows of many people in his eyes? There are only two of us in the laboratory now."
There were only two people in the laboratory and there were no ghosts. The more Nan Mingcheng thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct.
Shen Yijin calculated the hexagram for the experimenter again, and the hexagram was the same as before. She stared and thought about it, and roughly knew the reason.
"It's possible that the shadows in the experimenter's eyes are not souls, but emotions. Their restart plan revolves around the brain. I have encountered cases related to emotions before. Before the emotions gather to form ghosts, I really can't calculate their existence."
As they were talking, Shen Yijin discovered a pinhole-sized wound on the experimenter's head. The wound had long since healed and was hidden between the short hair, so one had to look very carefully to see it.
When Shen Yijin first saw it, she didn't think in the direction of the wound, but she intuitively felt that this pinhole-sized wound was not right. She squinted her eyes and observed for a long time before she was sure that it was a mark left by a needle prick, not a dent left after the hair follicle fell off.
Seeing this wound, Shen Yijin felt that everything could be explained: "The experimenter also became an experimental subject in the laboratory without his knowledge."
However, the experiments conducted on the experimenters are different from those conducted on other experimental subjects. The experimenters themselves cannot feel that they are being experimented on. Most of the time, they will subconsciously attribute the strange things they encounter to hallucinations or being haunted by ghosts.
After discovering the wound on the experimenter's head caused by the needle hole, Shen Yijin went to pull out the hair from other parts of the experimenter's head to see if there were any other wounds on his head.
As she was searching, Nan Mingcheng suddenly lifted her arm and forcibly took her hand out of the experimenter's hair.
Shen Yijin asked in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
Nan Mingcheng pointed to a spot on the experimenter's head and asked Shen Yijin to look carefully: "Look here, is there a bug similar to the one in the experimental chamber?"
Shen Yijin broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this.
When she looked carefully, she found that there really was a bug. Its size, movement speed, and appearance were exactly the same as the thousands of bugs in the experimental chamber.
Shen Yijin's pupils suddenly shrank, and she quickly checked herself and Nan Mingcheng carefully: "When did those bugs crawl out? Could some of them have crawled onto our bodies?"
She took the time to look at the experimental chamber and confirmed that these bugs either crawled out of the experimental chamber or from the pinhole-sized wound on the experimenter's head.
Shen Yijin was extremely regretful at this moment. She had discovered that the experimenter had been subjected to experiments just like the subjects in the hive, so she should have guessed that he might have bugs on his body as well.
It would be fine if the experimenter had bugs on his body, but if the bugs crawled out and there was no isolation function in the experimental chamber, and they crawled everywhere, that would be a big problem.
When Shen Yijin thought about these little bugs crawling all over the cities and living in people's brains, and seeing dense swarms of bugs wherever she went, she felt dizzy and wanted to faint.
Fortunately, she didn't find those little bugs on herself and Nan Mingcheng.
But the bugs were still crawling out of the experimenter's head.
Despite being knocked unconscious, the experimenter still had a strange smile on his face.
