Chapter 242 Breakthrough
What Chen Yu said is not unreasonable.
From her perspective, Hua Yan is a genuine "invader", and also "occupied" her "home" and occupied half of her life. The battle between them, from the root, is a battle for ownership of the "body".
But now, Chen Yu decided to take a step back and admit that Hua Yan was "living" in her body, and no longer strongly opposed it, and even forced her to "mov away".
So she is as smart as she came up with a way to "agree to live in a house" and "extend to live in a house". This is equivalent to renting a house. The property rights of the house are mine. You can rent it, but the rental time and method must be approved by me.
And if you don’t move out of a certain period of time, I will not take back all my “real estate”. Instead, you can ask me to apply for an extension of the lease term, it sounds like a 70-year property right.
However, since you rent my body, you should act like me and not damage or consume this body too much, because after all, I am its owner.
Thinking of this, there is nothing wrong with it. Because Hua Yan is not a human, and she did not cherish her body in her previous behavior.
"Is there anything unreasonable about these conditions?" Chen Yu's mood seemed to calm down a lot. She sat on the sofa again and asked me again.
"Reasonable, reasonable." I also sat down quietly, "But, it is obvious that we can expel her from your body."
Chen Yu smiled, then found a sticky envelope and handed it to me.
"I have a way to treat her. If she doesn't accept it, you can give her this envelope."
I took the envelope: "Why did you suddenly think of a truce with her?"
She didn't answer my question directly.
"Tell her that I really want to cooperate with her. She has many useful abilities. If she can cooperate with me, I think it will be beneficial for solving these cases that go beyond common sense. Because since cases go beyond common sense, then you need to fight poison with poison and treat it with methods that go beyond common sense, right?"
She thought about it and said, "But she is very easy to do things out of line. Just like what you were worried about before, if she is not careful in "watching the lamp", she may take her life. This is an act that violates the laws of human society. So now I have changed my mind. Instead of fighting like this, it is better to guide her on the right track. Since she lives in my body, it must be unrelated to my work. So if her talents are used to solve cases, wouldn't it be a good thing?"
What she said made me nod my head repeatedly. A big stone in my heart finally fell to the ground. In any case, the battle between them seemed to be coming to an end, and my painful experience as a "pool fish" was almost over.
Moreover, if Chen Yu could recognize the existence of Hua Yan, her psychology would also remain in a very stable state.
No matter from any perspective, this is a good thing.
"Don't worry, I'll convince Hua Yan to accept the proposal to cooperate with each other."
Chen Yu looked at me and suddenly laughed. The smile was a smile from the heart, just like the warmth of spring and the ice and snow melting naturally.
Really, it has been a long time since I saw her so happy.
"There's another thing," Chen Yu suddenly remembered something, "You said that when a visitor from Hell snatched the body, the fish-faced child of the Wei family was found on the roof of Building No. 6?"
"Yes! Isn't it very strange?"
She nodded: "It's very strange. How could that child named Xiaoxin be in the hands of a faceless man? Moreover, the child's background is also a bit strange. Do you still remember that we had encountered portraits of fish faces in the Wei family?"
"There is also a box with a fish lock on it, which looks particularly similar to Xiao Xin."
"Think about it again, the old man of the Zhu family has reposted Wei Shengchuan, that is, the Wei family lineage, and there may be children with mutated faces like Xiao Xin every few generations."
"You mean, genetic inheritance?"
"Yes, hidden inheritance. The Wei family may have an ancestor who laid the foundation. He may be a fish-faced man, so the Wei family later regarded the fish-faced man as a totem and made various objects. Later, every certain generation, the Wei family would give birth to a child of such an alien. Maybe a long time ago, the Wei family would support such a child, but perhaps it was passed down to a certain generation, and the alien man brought disaster to the Wei family. Therefore, Wei Shengchuan said that giving birth to Xiao Xin was a disaster for the Wei family."
"It makes sense." I said.
"There is a situation that inspired me today, that is, genetics are very important. Faceless men will not snatch Xiao Xin for no reason. After all, they are all people with mutated faces, and their ancestors have some connections.
"There are also visitors from Hell, who is also a strange person, and has special abilities."
"But according to him, his face was burned in 'hell'." I reminded Shen Yu.
"That is to say, he turned out to be an ordinary person. Because he had been to 'hell' and escaped alive, his appearance was ruined, but he had gained extraordinary physical abilities and would not be killed?"
"It's probably what he's like, if he's telling me the truth."
"We need to check the matters of the Wei family," Shen Yu continued, "for example, look for the Wei family genealogy and check what happened to the ancestors of the Wei family. And Xiao Xin always felt that some of the logic of what Wei Shengchuan told the old man of the Zhu family at that time was not clear."
"I'll come to find these," I said.
"Yan Zhuang," Shen Yu suddenly became serious, "I need you to do me a favor. That is, when investigating the case, we must collect genetic information from all these people with super-long abilities, and find genetic specimens they left behind, such as hair, blood, body fluids and other things that can be tested..."
"Do you suspect that the genetic control is involved behind these events?"
"It may not matter, but it is a breakthrough after all, because this afternoon, I discovered a major clue."
Shen Yu told me about the abnormality of the ancestral origin detection of the brute-behindrance gene, and I was stunned when I heard it.
"Gene mutation, or isn't a human gene?"
"Yes, so I want to see what the genetic composition of these strange cases around us, people who are beyond the scope of common sense, are similar and similar.
I nodded. After all, genes are composed of human roots. If we can start from genes to study the internal connections of these strange cases, it is also a good idea.
"Also, we have to find time to go to Xinjiang as soon as possible." She said, "Because based on genetic testing, it is found that the scapegoat is likely from Xinjiang. Do you still remember that Wen Tingxu said that his father disappeared from Yecheng, Xinjiang many years ago?"
"Of course I remember that he also invited us to Xinjiang together."
Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Maybe his father's experience back then has anything to do with these cases? Don't forget that there are many things that have been going on in one direction recently."
She thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow, you can contact Lin Ying and deal with the engraved corpse found by Cigu Branch. It seems that the faceless men are really starting to speed up the pace."
