Chapter 37 Speculation



A large "Temporarily Closed" sign was hung at the entrance of Xingxing Hair Salon.

Inside the Stars Hair Salon.

Captain Sun Hai, who had been resting at home for a month, was sitting at a rectangular table with the other team members on either side, and Hera sitting directly opposite him.

"These are all the information I found in the Night Star Archives about regenerative abilities and mutant species with regenerative capabilities." Nanming placed a dozen or so documents on the table, then added two more documents and several photos. "And these are all the information I currently have about the mutant species named [HeLa Cells]."

Sun Hai first took the dozen or so documents and glanced at them briefly, then took all the information on HeLa cells and began to browse through it carefully.

Si Xiaobei, Xing Lan, and Liu Xiaogang watched Captain Sun Hai nervously. Xing Lan even started biting her hand out of nervousness.

Sun Hai slowly put down the documents, then looked at Hera directly opposite him.

Hera remained unchanged, her face expressionless, her large, peach-colored eyes wide open.

Then Sun Hai looked at the rest of the group and slowly said, "Are you sure she was cut in half at the waist and then reattached herself?"

Everyone nodded like chickens pecking at rice.

Sun Hai then looked at Liu Xiaogang and asked casually, "Did she get up on her own upper body while simultaneously squatting down on her lower body?"

"Yes, absolutely true! If there's even a hint of falsehood in that statement, I, Liu Xiaogang, will never find a girlfriend in my life!" Liu Xiaogang swore to the heavens.

Sun Hai looked at Liu Xiaogang for a while before turning his attention back to him. "It can regenerate, and the severed parts can be controlled again. This ability is different from the regeneration of the [Curse of Immortality] and [Eternal Regeneration]."

The other mutant species are the same; although some also possess regenerative abilities, they are unable to control the severed areas.

Sun Hai looked at Hera, "However, there is one mutant that has this ability..."

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Liu Xiaogang's cheek, and a bold guess arose in everyone's minds.

Sun Hai presented information about HeLa cells, saying, "Everyone on our team, except Xing Lan and Feng Xuan, has seen this."

They've all been blown into several pieces of flesh, and those pieces are still wriggling in the same direction. This is extremely similar to Hera's ability that you mentioned..." Sun Hai's expression gradually became serious.

“So…” Si Xiaowei began tentatively.

"Therefore, I suspect that Hera may be a [symbiote], and the object of her symbiosis is the [HeLa cell] that slaughtered the entire City C."

Although everyone had a general idea of ​​the outcome, they were still very shocked to hear it with their own ears.

Sun Hai continued calmly, "I speculate that after the HeLa cells were severely injured by the thunderstorm, they found Hera, who was also on the verge of death. In order to survive, the HeLa cells formed a symbiotic relationship with Hera, and Hera survived as well."

However, perhaps due to the influence of HeLa cells or a severe shock, Hera lost all her memories and became like a newborn baby, unable to understand anything, unable to speak, and even lacking some of her biological instincts.

"But of course, all of this is just speculation; there could be other possibilities..." Sun Hai's eyes turned cold.

"For example, Hera was created from HeLa cells."

“How could that be!” Xinglan suddenly stood up from her seat to refute.

“As I said, this is only one possibility, and the possibility is very small because we are not sure if HeLa cells have such an ability,” Sun Hai replied calmly. Xing Lan nodded slightly and then sat down again.

At this moment, Sun Hai suddenly pulled out a short knife and placed it on the table.

The others were instantly startled, and Xinglan immediately stood up to protect Hera. "Captain, what are you trying to do! If you dare to hurt Hera, even if you are the captain, I will not let you off easily!"

"Captain, calm down. You said it yourself, it's only a very small possibility." Liu Xiaogang also quickly stood up.

“Yes, Captain, put down the knife and let’s talk this out…” Si Xiaobei pleaded with Sun Hai, looking like she was about to cry.

Sun Hai: ...

Sun Hai placed the knife on the table and gently rubbed his forehead. He had expected a reaction from the crowd, but he hadn't anticipated such a strong one.

Especially Xinglan, what kind of childish statement is that?

Sun Hai rubbed his forehead and waved his hand, gesturing for everyone to sit down. They exchanged glances and, seeing that Sun Hai indeed had no intention of killing Hera, sat down. However, Hera continued to stare intently at Sun Hai.

Sun Hai sighed helplessly, "I just wanted to test Hera's regenerative abilities myself, what are you all doing..."

Everyone then realized that if Captain Sun Hai really wanted to kill Hera, why would he only use such a small dagger?

The three of them lowered their heads in embarrassment, especially Xinglan, whose face was almost red to the roots of her ears.

Sun Hai picked up the knife and prepared to get up and walk towards Hera, but was suddenly stopped by Xing Lan.

Xinglan blushed and said somewhat shyly, "Um, Captain, could you let me test her?"

Sun Hai thought for a moment and then tossed the knife to Xing Lan. "Thank you, Captain!" Xing Lan took the knife, thanked her partner first, and then looked at Hera beside her.

She gently took Hera's hand. "Don't worry, Hera, I'll be gentle and it won't hurt much. Just bear with it for a little while, don't worry."
