Chapter 671 Upgrading of Means

"...You are saying that the human world has been invaded by aliens. They disguised themselves as humans and secretly replaced our friends and relatives. Therefore, the relatives and friends around us may no longer be the people we are familiar with. Already?" Bai Qing's eyes widened. Although she said she was willing to believe what Zhang Heng said later, as an ordinary person with normal IQ and reason, who had gone through nine years of compulsory education, this was the first time she heard such a thing. It's really hard to believe.

"Yeah, I heard you say at KFC that your dad has been a little weird recently. He came home early after work, and there was also a person looking through photos in the room. I thought the person being replaced was your dad," Zhang Heng said, "And your mother's description last night was very similar to the victim I met before, but just because it was too similar made me suspicious of her. I knew those things were trying to deal with me, so I didn't I jumped to conclusions, went home, picked up my equipment, and drove back.”

"You here? Last night."

"Yes, I arrived around 12:48 and parked just outside your community, but I was too sleepy and fell asleep for a while." Because it was not yet clear what the relationship with this dungeon was, Zhang Heng did not make himself known. Tell Bai Qing about the strange dream.

"Then according to your statement, the person who was replaced should also be my father. My mother discovered the abnormality, so my father...that thing killed my mother and silenced her."

"No, as far as I know, those things have always been very cautious. Except for the time when three children drowned before, they didn't seem to have directly killed anyone. In fact, they prefer to take advantage of human society rather than this simple and crude method. rules to achieve your goals."

Zhang Heng paused and continued, "Take college students as an example. Through continuous psychological oppression, they create the illusion that the target is mentally abnormal. College students have previously caused riots in the community with knives. Once the outside world accepts his mental disorder, Image, those things can justifiably send him to a mental hospital, and no one will believe his words again, and this time the methods they used have evolved."

"What's the meaning?"

"In the earlier quarrel between your father and your mother, your mother deliberately disturbed others and called the police, so that others and the police would know that your father had the intention and behavior to harm your mother before, and for what happened next The foreshadowing was laid, so that when your mother died in the living room covered in blood and your father was found with a fruit knife in his hand, no matter what he said, no one would believe it. I should have realized this earlier. In fact, it is an upgraded version of the knife incident involving college students."

"But the person who behaved strangely before was indeed my father, and the cameras he secretly installed. How to explain this?"

"Your father must have discovered something unusual about your mother. After all, no matter how much they quarrel, they have been a couple for twenty years. Judging from your father's behavior of looking through old photos, he may have suspected that your mother was cheating, so He dug out previous photos to review their past relationship, and installed the camera to catch the adulterer. This is also a normal way of thinking, including the fact that he came home from work early before, probably because he wanted to save the relationship, and these can also explain their Why did a conflict break out at night, but when the police came, your father kept silent about the reason for the conflict."

Bai Qing thought for a while, "What you said seems to be possible. My father is a very face-conscious person. If he suspects my mother of cheating, he definitely doesn't want this kind of thing to be known to outsiders. But... I do see it. He was standing there holding a fruit knife."

"As long as you are prepared, it is easy to do this kind of thing without thinking or calculating. For example, if your father comes out and sees your mother killing herself, then he will definitely rush to snatch the fruit knife from your mother's hand, but your mother If his movements are fast, or his strength is strong enough, he can complete the self-killing. In the end, your father takes the knife away, which is the scene you saw." Zhang Heng said, "Of course, this is just my speculation, and the specific situation needs to be determined. We found out after investigation.”

"So that thing sacrificed himself just to send my dad to prison?"

"I don't think they sacrificed themselves. We know too little about them now. We don't know what they are, how they were replaced, and what their survival conditions are." Zhang Heng analyzed , "Maybe the body is to them what clothes are to us, and throwing away the body is just a change of clothes for them."

"Have you been investigating this kind of thing? You always looked sleep deprived in class before. Is this the same reason?" Bai Qing asked.

"Yes, I am tracking the whereabouts of college students and the drowning of three children by the river." Zhang Heng admitted.

"Why? You said you weren't very familiar with that college student, and those things warned you, so why take the risk?"

"Well... I'm from the Association for the Prevention and Control of Invasion of Alien Species. This association specializes in dealing with some abnormal phenomena." Zhang Heng lied on this issue and borrowed the name of Shen Xixi's organization.

"It sounds like a mysterious organization that only appears in novels and movies. Is there anyone else in this association besides you?"

"Yes, but they are not here and have other things to deal with, so we can only rely on ourselves." Zhang Heng said.

"Sorry, I'm trying my best to keep up with you, but..." Bai Qing held his head, "This sounds really incredible, alien invasion, my mother is actually not my mother or something..."

"It doesn't matter, you can take your time. I know you feel very uncomfortable now, so you can stay here to rest, or go to your grandpa's house. Just leave the investigation to me." Zhang Heng said.

"No, I'm with you." Bai Qing said, "Don't leave me alone." As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed Zhang Heng's hand, "The scene in the living room always appears in my mind. , over and over again, like a nightmare, I, I can't rest, if what you said is true, can we get my mother back?"

"It's possible, but it must be said that the chance is very slim. However, we may have a way to help your father get rid of the suspicion."

"If it can really be proven that my father did not kill the person, I will do anything." Bai Qing said without hesitation.

"Okay, let's start with the corpse first and see if we can find anything." Zhang Heng said.
