Chapter 453 - 453 Source of The Mutation, Hint 1
453 Source of The Mutation, Hint 1
There were mutated people here?
Lu Yuan looked at the higher-ups of the guardians of the night in front of him, who were smiling in surprise, and his heart was full of shock.
He glanced at the senior members of the night Watchmen in front of him.
There were a total of five people, and he was not sure which one had been mutated.
He remained calm, but a smile appeared on his face.
“Aren’t you going to introduce me?”
The middle-aged man in the lead slapped his forehead and smiled apologetically,
“I’m sorry, I’ve been so busy with the mutation incident that I forgot about it. I’m the head of the night Watchmen branch in the city of Allie, Sha Jian. This is the Deputy head Maica, this is the general person in charge of the operation team, Tang Fei, this is the head of the archive office, Bernie, and this is the head of the mission office, Gilian.”
Lu Yuan’s gaze swept across them. He matched their names with each other and nodded slightly at them.
Only Gillian was a female, the rest were all male.
Lu Yuan observed them and did not read any special fluctuations in their expressions.
Thinking about it, it was normal. If someone had really been mutated, they wouldn’t have given themselves away so easily. Otherwise, how could they not have been discovered until now?
While Lu Yuan greeted them, he was thinking about how to find the mutated person among the five people.
The simplest way was to stay in the same room as them one by one. As long as the evolution cube reacted to a single person, it would be pretty much the same.
Even if he wanted to find a reason to be alone with them in the room, he still needed to think about it carefully.
“Elder Lu, you’ve just arrived in Yali city, so we should be welcoming you. However, due to the severe mutation phenomenon, especially at night, people frequently go missing. For this reason, we are the busiest at night. So I’m afraid I can’t hold a welcome party for you.”
While Lu Yuan was deep in thought, Sha Jian spoke with an apologetic expression.
Lu Yuan came back to his senses and said with a smile, ” t’s alright. It’s more important to deal with the mutation phenomenon …”
Then, Lu Yuan suddenly froze and was a little surprised. “Have you guys been working overtime these past few nights?”
Sha Jian was taken aback by Lu Yuan’s question. He nodded, “yes, elder Lu. Is there a problem?”
Lu Yuan was a little stunned.
If they were all working overtime, then who was the one who made the person disappear?
Could it be that the evolution cube was not shaking about the mutation?
However, even Tong Menghan had confirmed that it had something to do with the mutation. Could it be that in the real world, the cause of the shock was not the mutation?
Lu Yuan’s mind was in a mess. He smiled and shook his head.
nothing. I just feel that you’re very dutiful as night watchers.
Upon hearing this, the few of them revealed smiles.
“This is our duty.”
Lu Yuan nodded.
Sha Jian spoke again,
“Why don’t we go back first and ask Bernie to report to you about the mutation phenomenon? There might be some clues in the file.”
As a mutation phenomenon, there would usually be a file.
As the head of the archives, Bernie was naturally in charge of this kind of thing.
Lu Yuan looked at Bernie, who had a serious face and a scholarly aura, and nodded slightly,
“That’s good.”
He had been thinking about how to spend time with them alone, and now it seemed that there was an opportunity.
First, he had to confirm if this Bernie was the one who shook the evolution cube.
Everyone returned to the building.
Because of this mutation incident, Sha Jian was very busy, so he asked Bernie to take Lu Yuan, Benjamin, and the others to the archive Hall, and they left to go back to work.
The archives office was on the second floor.
Lu Yuan, Benjamin and the others followed Bernie, who didn’t talk much, and soon came to a huge room full of documents. Bernie asked someone to find a few documents and handed them to Lu Yuan and the others, smiling,
“This is the file on the mutation phenomenon.”
Lu Yuan nodded and glanced at Flamenco and the others.
“All of you, take a look.”
“Yes!” Benjamin nodded seriously.
They were obviously more experienced than Lu Yuan in understanding and analyzing the files.
Lu Yuan was now sure that Bernie was not a mutated person.
At least, at a close distance, evolution didn’t affect Bernie.
It seemed to be the other people.
Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes and flipped through the file.
He was thinking about another problem.
If this mutant was not present when the mutation occurred, did it mean that this mutant had nothing to do with this guy?
Or were they accomplices?
A high-ranking mutant in the night Watchmen’s branch was covering for the person who caused the mutation?
If he really had an accomplice, then it would not be convenient for him to make a move now.
This would only alert the enemy and make the person who had really mutated go into hiding.
Only after finding all of them would he be able to catch them all in one fell swoop.
He had to confirm who it was first.
The file showed that the mutation had started 37 days ago. At first, there were very few people who went missing, and most of them were homeless.
The number of people who went missing increased, and it even expanded to the entire city.
All the missing people could not be found no matter where they were. It was as if they had evaporated into thin air, leaving no clues behind.
Lu Yuan was not surprised by this. Even genetic Warriors had many ways to make a person evaporate without a sound, let alone a strange mutation phenomenon.
