"Brother, could you please pass on a message to Chief Shen, telling him to pay special attention to these types of children—"
"Look at these three types of children: those with good academic performance, those from well-off families, and those who have won sports trophies. Have any of their parents recently reported them missing?"
"If you have any, let me know immediately!"
No sooner had Song Ran left than Yan Miao immediately called Yan Xu.
If they really want to select children to cultivate new superhumans, they will definitely prioritize these three types of children.
If it were an ordinary child, Qiu Changtian wouldn't need to intervene at all!
With each crystal core used, there's one less available. Yan Miao didn't believe they would be so generous as to exchange a bunch of crystal cores for children, unless the disappearance of those children would attract a great deal of attention.
That's why Qiu Changtian needed to take action...
Those with good academic performance are more likely to master the skills of controlling supernatural abilities more quickly and easily reach a level of proficiency.
Children from privileged families tend to have higher emotional and intellectual intelligence than those from ordinary families.
Those who have won sports competition trophies are even more outstanding, making them the best candidates for speed and strength-type superpowers.
If you start from these three aspects, you'll always find some clues!
As for the deputy mayor, Yan Miao knew perfectly well that even if Chief Shen intervened, there would likely be many obstacles, and she wouldn't get the answer she wanted so quickly.
But time waits for no one!
What if some of those children are disobedient?
Would the Men in Black be so kind as to spare their lives?
Absolutely not!
Those who are useless to them are like dead people in their eyes. Few superhumans who have experienced the battles of the apocalypse can hold on to their humanity.
She had to find the children quickly.
…………
In less than an hour.
Yan Xu received Chief Shen's message and rushed over to tell Yan Miao, "Miao Miao, there's news!"
"We have found two children who fit the criteria. One is the top student in his grade at Beiqing Middle School, who went missing on his way home from school two weeks ago!"
"After the parents reported him to the police, the police reviewed all the surveillance footage along his route home from school, but they didn't see him on the road. However, the teachers saw him leave the school gate and walk in the direction of home..."
[It must be an alien monster; I didn't expect them to bring that along!]
Alien?
What is that?
Alien monsters are small creatures that appeared after the apocalypse; they can mimic the appearance of any creature they have ever seen!
In the late post-apocalyptic world, the streets were deathly still, devoid of any animals. They mimicked the decaying corpses of stray cats and dogs, even sharing a similar, terrifying stench of rotting flesh.
After being discovered, the base spent a great deal of resources to capture a few, and then sent experts to study them.
[The alien has a very peculiar ability: if you draw two vials of its blood and inject it into yourself, you can transform into anyone within five minutes. However, this is limited to people of the same sex; you can't freely change species like they do.]
When the results of this experiment were announced, the entire base was shocked! However, very few people actually used it!
Not only is capturing alien monsters extremely difficult and resource-intensive, but their blood is also non-renewable; once drained, the alien monster will die.
[At the same time, the conditions for using the blood are very strict; it must be freshly drawn on the spot! It cannot exceed 5 minutes, otherwise the blood will become ineffective.]
Most importantly, the alien's blood contains a large amount of toxins. If a user uses it more than three times, they will bleed from all seven orifices and die instantly! Even the most powerful superhumans will find it difficult to resist the corrosive effects of this toxin!
Yanxu listened with great interest.
He has been interested in such fantastical things since he was a child.
The alien monster Yan Miao mentioned hit him right where it hurt. This kind of thing only exists in storybooks; it doesn't exist in his world at all.
I never imagined that my sister's world was so wonderful and magical!
Having spent so much time together, he naturally understood Yan Miao's strangeness and knew that she might not be from this world, but from a world completely different from his!
However, what puzzled him was that before they went to the Taoist temple to pick up Yan Miao, they had repeatedly confirmed with the Taoist priests that she had grown up in the Taoist temple all these years and it was impossible for her to be replaced.
Moreover, it was her father who personally went to the Taoist temple to bring her back!
She is indeed my younger sister!
But how can we explain her familiarity with another world and her strangeness?
This was a problem he had been thinking about for more than half a month but still couldn't figure out.
But after what happened with the Qiu family, he instantly felt relieved—
The most important thing is for the whole family to be together!
If you can't figure something out, then don't think about it anymore!
No matter what happens in the future, she will always be my sister, and I will always stand by her side!
"Brother, did Chief Shen tell you the child's address?"
"Of course I told him. I sent his parents' contact information and home address to my phone. Are you going over there?"
"Yes, I plan to go over there to look for clues."
Yan Miao nodded in agreement.
"Then I'll go with you."
Are you sure?
She looked Yanxu up and down with a suspicious gaze, and couldn't help but poke at him, "Brother, your right leg is still in a cast, and you have to use crutches to walk. How are you going to come with me?"
