Chapter 26: Strange Giant Rat
After comparing fingerprints and applying for the bonus.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the two parents did not stay in the police station for long and wanted to take their two children back home.
During this time, when passing by the office door, Lin Zichen, who had extraordinary hearing, keenly heard some conversations inside.
It's about pagans and giant alien rats.
"The Rat God Cult has been increasingly active lately, trying to entice those who are dissatisfied with society and filled with resentment to join them."
"I heard that the Rat God Cult has even infiltrated some universities, trying to seduce those cultural students who are unable to genetically fuse through formal channels."
"The pagan who was shot dead tonight was once a cultural student at Guangyan University. Because his body didn't meet the standards for gene fusion, he longed to become a gene fusionist. Then he was bewitched and seduced by the Rat God Cult."
"What a bunch of rats! Sooner or later, we'll get rid of all these people!"
"It's useless to eliminate the traitors. It only treats the symptoms and not the root cause. We have to eliminate that self-proclaimed god, the Rat King."
“…”
Rat God Cult?
It was the first time that Lin Zichen heard these three words, so he immediately took out his mobile phone to check.
Later it was learned that this was a pagan cult that worshipped a giant alien rat as its god.
The organization's headquarters is in Shanhai City. Most of its members are social losers, and its activities have become more and more frequent in recent years.
It is suspected that the Rat King wants to evolve into a higher-level creature and needs believers to collect a large amount of evolutionary resources for it.
These are all official information released to the public.
"A mouse as a god?"
Lin Zichen shook his head, stopped searching, and put his phone in his pocket.
Walk out of the police station and come to the parking lot.
As usual, Shen Qinghan got into Lin Yansheng's car and wanted to sit in the back seat with Lin Zichen.
Shen Jianye looked at this scene and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Alas, our daughter looks like she is almost becoming a member of the old Lin family."
Xu Meng said calmly, "Hanhan is blessed to be close to the Lin family. Why are you still sighing?"
"That's right." Shen Jianye smiled and quickly got into the car with Xu Meng.
In another car, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan were chatting casually.
Most of the time, Shen Qinghan was talking and Lin Zichen was responding.
"Xiaochen, I don't know how Teacher Strawberry is doing now. I saw her neck bleeding at the time, so she should be fine, right?"
"It doesn't look like the injury is serious. Just a simple bandage will be enough. It will be fine."
"Xiaochen, when that pagan believer transformed, eight eyes grew on his face. It looked really scary."
“This is what alienation is.”
Lin Zichen answered nonchalantly.
As they were chatting, Shen Qinghan, who had been talking nonstop, suddenly stopped talking. She didn't play with her phone, but just pressed her straight legs together tightly, making sure they fit together perfectly. Her expression looked a little strange.
Lin Zichen noticed her abnormality and subconsciously glanced over there, and found that it was still bulging like when she was a child.
But he knew that it was probably not a diaper, but another kind of pad that absorbed water.
After realizing this, he silently turned his head to the side and looked at the roadside outside the car window to avoid embarrassing Shen Qinghan.
Shen Qinghan also knew that Lin Zichen had noticed it, so she lowered her head, pursed her thin lips and said nothing.
Just like that, the atmosphere in the car suddenly became quiet.
Um?
Suddenly, Lin Zichen's eyes widened.
He saw a fat rat as big as a cat, which flashed past the roadside and quickly climbed into the second floor of the police station along the drainage channel.
How can there be such a big rat?
Could it be a giant alien rat?
Lin Zichen's nerves suddenly tensed up.
But soon, he relaxed and felt that he was just overthinking it.
This is the south, not the north. It is normal for mice to grow as big as cats. There is nothing strange about it.
"It seems I'm too tense. I need to relax when I get home..."
Lin Zichen thought to himself.
…
After the car arrived home.
Shen Qinghan said, "See you tomorrow," and left the car with an awkward gait.
Zhang Wanxin asked with some confusion, "What's wrong with Hanhan? Doesn't she usually like to stay and chat with you for a while? Why was she so quiet in the car just now, and now she gets out and leaves as soon as the car stops?"
"She looked very sleepy just now. She was probably tired and wanted to sleep, so she didn't have the energy to talk." Lin Zichen explained.
Zhang Wanxin nodded without any hesitation.
Soon, the family of three got out of the car and went into the house.
As soon as they entered, Zhang Wanxin warned Lin Zichen with a serious face: "Xiaochen, if you encounter something like tonight again, Mom hopes that you can prioritize your own safety. You must act within your ability and never act impulsively."
"Mom, I understand. I will." Lin Zichen nodded obediently.
Seeing that he was willing to listen, Zhang Wanxin's worry eased a little.
Then, she suddenly remembered something and asked:
"By the way, didn't you buy three pounds of ghost squid meat? Where is the meat? I don't see it in the bicycle basket, and you don't have it in your hands?"
"Mom, don't be angry if I tell you this. When we encountered the pagan mutation before, Hanhan and I ran too fast and accidentally lost the meat..." Lin Zichen said after hesitating for a moment.
When Zhang Wanxin heard this, her eyes widened.
She was heartbroken, but she restrained herself from showing it in front of Lin Zichen. Instead, she comforted him:
"It's okay, it's lost. After all, it was caused by a pagan incident. It's a blessing in disguise that no one is hurt. Not to mention that you bravely saved someone. You are my pride."
"Since it hasn't been lost for long, why don't I drive over and look for it along the way?" Lin Yansheng suggested.
Zhang Wanxin immediately rejected it: "No, there just happened an incident of alienation among pagans there. It's too dangerous."
"That's right." Lin Yansheng nodded.
Lin Zichen didn't say anything, thinking to himself that he would participate in more competitions in the future, and when he saved enough prize money, he would buy three pounds of ghost squid meat to honor his parents.
…
In the police station, in the captain's office.
The captain of the security team looked at the transcript in his hand and couldn't help but smile.
Slingshot?
Who would use a stone as big as an egg when playing with a slingshot?
Can it bounce out?
This must have been thrown by hand!
Don’t you see what I do for a living? How can I be fooled by a student like you?
The captain of the security team lit a cigarette, took a deep breath and exhaled, looking at the spreading smoke and continued thinking.
By the way, he is just a junior high school student, how did he manage to throw the stone with such great power?
No, I must check the surveillance footage tomorrow morning to see what’s going on.
Thinking of this, the captain of the security team put the transcript back into the special file box, locked it, and prepared to go home after get off work.
Just then, he found a mouse on the windowsill, as big as a cat.
He was a little surprised: "Where did this rat come from? Why is it so big?"
The mouse outside the window was not scared away by the voices. It stood quietly on the windowsill without moving, staring at the security team captain with its eyes dimly.
