"Are you awake? The operation was successful and you are now a girl."
A voice came from the side, and Lu Tian subconsciously lowered his eyes.
Fortunately, I didn’t travel through time again.
Turning his head, Lu Kan looked at the person beside the bed.
Hong Ye is peeling an apple. Her technique is much better than Amber's, and the skin of the apple is not broken.
Lu Tan watched Hong Ye finish peeling a whole apple and was about to reach out to pick it up when he saw Hong Ye take a big bite.
“Crispy and sweet.”
she commented.
This scene seemed a bit familiar, and Lu Jian didn't know how to evaluate it for a moment.
But he soon realized one thing, that is, his cognition had recovered.
At least he looked at Hong Ye without tentacles and not a monster.
"Are there tentacles under your skirt?"
Lu Tan asked, fearing that several tentacles would suddenly emerge from under Hongye's skirt and tie him up.
"roll!"
Hongye almost raised her leg to give Lu Tran a kick, but considering the bottom of her skirt, she still didn't do it.
"You can pass out even if you go to a police station, is that okay?"
Hongye teased.
"I'm super brave."
Lu Tan replied immediately.
"Forget it, don't be brave in the future. Amber is worried to death. If she is worried, I will not feel comfortable either."
Hongye finished the apple, wiped his hands with a tissue, stood up, and pointed to the other side of the bed.
Lu Tiao saw Amber lying on the other side of his bed, seemingly asleep because he was too sleepy.
"How long have I been asleep?"
He glanced at the bedside and didn't find his cell phone.
"Just one day and one night."
Hongye said, he had already reached the door of the ward.
"I'm going to call the doctor, ha--"
She yawned and walked out of the ward, muttering that she was sleepy.
Lu Tan did not wake up Amber. After waiting for a while, the doctor came with Drizzt, Hongye and others.
This doesn't seem to be a mental hospital, just an ordinary ward.
"How does it feel?"
The doctor checked it and asked.
“It’s pretty good.”
Lu Tan replied.
Amber woke up at this time. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at everyone as she was still unconscious.
Everyone looked at her kindly.
"ah?"
Amber immediately sat up straight and wiped the corners of her mouth.
"I'm not, I didn't."
She defended, although no one knew what she was defending.
"Are you really okay?"
Drizzt asked, you know, the two police officers from the forensics department haven't woken up yet, and the results of the examination are not optimistic, while Lu Tiao is actually very active now, just like he took a long sleep.
Are mentally ill people really better at fighting those things?
He thought of the iron box that he still kept in the police station.
According to Lu Tian, they covered the outside of the iron box several more times, and finally no more accidents occurred.
This is the first time Drizzt has seen such an evil thing. Just looking at it can make people hallucinate and fall into madness.
Of course, he didn't risk his life by letting people do the experiment, he just waited for Lu Jian to wake up.
What makes Drizzt feel terrible is that what Lu Jian said seems to be gradually coming true.
After the serial murderer woke up, he fell into complete madness as if he had lost his soul. He tried to commit suicide by biting off his tongue. After he was stopped, he was in extreme fear all the time, suffered a mental breakdown, and was unable to communicate.
It was as if the last of his rationality had been squeezed out when he met Lu Kan.
There is no way to explain this kind of thing scientifically.
Could it be that the pollution in the foreign land that Lu Jian mentioned was true?
Is this world false?
Drizzt became increasingly uneasy.
"No problem. It seems that the same pollution works slightly differently in this world. The pollution of the jade pendant is not as serious as imagined."
Lu Tan looked at himself. His hands and feet were all there, and his internal organs should also be in their original positions. There was no alienation.
And his mental condition is also quite good and he has not fallen into madness.
Either the pollution in that jade pendant is very mild, or the pollution in this world manifests itself in different ways.
It's also possible that it's both.
It has been a long time since Lu Jian had been in contact with the source of pollution that caused him to fall into a state of reduced sanity, so it is reasonable for him to become insensitive to pollution.
The pollution that made ordinary people go crazy on the spot was just an itch for Lu Tiao in the past, but now, it is probably enough for Lu Tiao to drink a pot.
"Have you put those things away?"
Lu Tiao confirmed again.
"Well, in the warehouse, according to you, several more layers have been added."
Drizzt replied.
"What is going on? I have never heard of anything that can affect people like this. Is it radioactive or chemical pollution?"
he asked again.
Drizzt knew that some heavy metals were harmful to people, and if they were exposed to them for a long time, they would lead to mania and depression.
There are also radiation sources, which can also cause physical damage and confusion.
Coupled with what Lu Jian said about wrapping the jade pendant in an iron box to isolate it from the impact, it is really hard not to think of radioactive sources.
"It's knowledge."
Lu Tan replied.
"In a foreign land, knowledge is pollution, and pollution is knowledge. The surface of that jade pendant is engraved with the appearance of an indescribable great being from a foreign land. When you know its appearance, pollution will follow."
After listening to Lu Tiao's words, Hongye was stunned for a moment.
She found it strange that when Lu Tiao said these words, everyone would look at him as if he were insane.
But now, Amber aside, the policeman was listening very seriously.
Could it be that it was not Lu Tan who went crazy, but himself?
"This is outrageous. If knowledge is pollution, then aren't we always being polluted when we go to school?"
Drizzt felt incredible.
“Didn’t your process of learning knowledge have an impact on your cognition?”
Lu Tan only replied calmly.
"The knowledge we usually learn is only quite superficial knowledge that does not involve the underlying operating laws of the world. The pollution of this kind of knowledge is not fatal to human beings who have been subtly influenced for millions of years."
"So, no wonder I always get dizzy when I study math. It turns out it's contaminated."
Hongye couldn't help but answered.
"That's not true, maybe you just can't learn it."
Lu Tan replied immediately.
"..."
Hongye was speechless for a moment.
"Years ago, the businessman didn't know where he got this jade pendant. Two thieves entered his villa and were affected when they stole the jade pendant. The children at home were killed. After that, the two thieves suffered for a long time.
One of them couldn't bear the contamination of the jade pendant and chose to commit suicide, while the other became a serial murderer until he was caught."
Lu Jian briefly summarized the situation they had.
"Indeed, the current situation should be like this."
Drizzt nodded.
"But the clues stopped here. Well, in other words, this case should have ended here."
The first thing he was investigating was a serial murder case. This jade pendant was outside the case, and it was impossible to tell the judges that this person committed the crime because he was affected by pollution.
"not yet."
Lu Tan felt that his thinking had become much clearer and more active after being impacted by the jade pendant. He looked at Drizzt.
"Since the thief was contaminated when he stole the jade pendant from the merchant's home, why was the merchant who collected the jade pendant not affected?"
