Forensic Doctor: Finding the Way Back to the Mystery of Ancient Realms
Chapter 4 Undercurrents, Truth and Sacrifice
[Security Command, Xu Youran’s Office]
The morning sun shone through the window onto the table. Xu Youran and Situ Han sat opposite each other, their faces solemn but their eyes gleaming with unyielding light. Last night's trip to the abandoned factory made them realize that the case was far more complicated than they had imagined.
"We need to reorganize our ideas." Xu Youran broke the silence. She picked up the notebook on the table and began to organize the known information.
Situ Han nodded in agreement. "From the 'Shadow Chamber of Commerce' to the abandoned factory last night, everything seems to be under the control of the murderer. We need to find the key person who can connect all the clues."
"But the problem is, we don't even know who the murderer is." Xu Youran sighed. She knew very well that the difficulty of this case was beyond her imagination.
"No, we are not completely ignorant." A gleam of light flashed in Situ Han's eyes. "From the noise last night, the murderer is well aware of our actions and may even have spies among us. We need to start investigating from within."
Xu Youran's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Are you saying that there is a traitor among us?"
Situ Han nodded. "This is just my guess, but we need to be cautious and not alert the enemy."
The two began to divide the work and cooperate with each other. Xu Youran was responsible for organizing the case materials and looking for possible clues; while Situ Han was responsible for secretly investigating the internal personnel of the Security Command and looking for suspicious characters.
[Secret meeting at a high-end hotel in Beijing]
As night falls, in a high-end hotel, several figures are plotting something. One of them is wearing a silver mask, and he is the one who left the voice in the abandoned factory that night.
"Xu Youran and Situ Han are indeed not simple people." The masked man sneered, "But they are still far from the truth."
"Master, what should we do next?" asked a subordinate at the side.
"Continue to cause trouble for them." A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the masked man's eyes. "At the same time, we must speed up the pace of our plan. Remember, our ultimate goal is not them, but the entire capital."
Upon hearing this, the subordinates nodded in agreement.
[Security Command, internal investigation]
After several days of secret investigation, Situ Han finally found a suspicious person - an adjutant of the security headquarters. His name is Li Feng, who has had interactions with many victims and has behaved abnormally recently.
"Li Feng?" Xu Youran looked at the information Situ Han handed over, frowning, "If it's him, then we're in big trouble."
"That's right." Situ Han nodded, "But we can't alert the enemy yet. We need more evidence to incriminate him."
The two decided to set a trap to lure Li Feng out of his shell. They forged a false intelligence report, claiming that they had important clues about the "Shadow Chamber of Commerce" and needed Li Feng's assistance in the investigation.
[Traps and Sacrifice]
As night fell, Li Feng arrived as scheduled. He looked around cautiously and entered the room only after confirming everything was right. However, as soon as he entered the room, he was subdued by the police officers who were ambushing in the dark.
However, just as they were about to take Li Feng away, the room suddenly exploded! The strong shock wave knocked everyone to the ground, and there was chaos all around.
When Xu Youran and Situ Han climbed out of the rubble with difficulty, they found that Li Feng was nowhere to be found. What shocked them even more was that a police officer was killed in the explosion.
"We've fallen into a trap!" Xu Youran roared, "Chase them!"
The two rushed out of the room desperately, but it was too late. Li Feng had already fled, leaving behind only a mess and endless anger and sadness.
【Easter Eggs】
The night was dark, and the lights in the office of the Security Command were bright. Xu Youran and Situ Han sat on the sofa with solemn expressions. This sudden explosion not only made them lose important clues and evidence, but also made them lose a comrade.
"What should we do?" Xu Youran's voice trembled. "The murderer is becoming more and more cunning. It seems that we will never be able to catch up with him."
Situ Han was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "We can't give up. Although we failed this time, we at least know one fact - the murderer is right next to us. As long as we keep tracking him down, we will find him one day."
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the office door. The two looked at each other and quickly regained their composure.
The door was pushed open, and a guard hurried into the room with a serious expression. "Commander! This is bad! We found a suspicious laboratory on the edge of the city, where illegal human experiments are being conducted!"
Xu Youran and Situ Han's eyes flashed at the same time when they heard this. They knew that this might be another clue left by the murderer.
"Get ready to go!" Situ Han stood up and said to the guards, "Notify everyone to assemble immediately!"
【Ending foreshadowing】
In the darkness of the night, the sound of police sirens once again pierced the sky, and several police cars roared towards the laboratory on the edge of the city. Xu Youran and Situ Han sat in the lead car, and through the car window, they could see the mysterious place shrouded in the night ahead.
"This time, we must not let the murderer escape again." Xu Youran held the notebook tightly in her hand, her eyes determined.
Situ Han nodded, his eyes flashing with a cold light. "No matter how cunning the murderer is, no matter how powerful the forces behind him are, we must bring him to justice!"
Laboratory mystery, a new turning point
As the police car approached the forgotten industrial area, an ominous atmosphere filled the air. The laboratory building was tall and gloomy, and it looked even more eerie in the night. Xu Youran and Situ Han got out of the car first, and led the team members to carefully approach this building that may hide countless secrets.
"Everyone, be careful, this place may be full of traps." Situ Han reminded in a low voice, his voice sounded particularly cold in the cold wind.
The team members quickly dispersed and began to search the perimeter of the laboratory. Soon, a team member reported that a hidden entrance was found on the side of the laboratory, but it seemed to be locked.
"Prepare the blasting tools." Situ Han gave the order decisively. He knew that time was running out and every second could allow the murderer to escape.
With a loud bang, the hidden entrance was blown open, and a group of people quickly rushed into the laboratory. Under the dim light, what came into view were rows of cold laboratory tables and complex equipment, and an indescribable smell filled the air.
"Here... some kind of horrible experiment is going on." Xu Youran frowned. Her eyes swept over the living creatures fixed on the laboratory table, and a strong feeling of anger and uneasiness surged in her heart.
Suddenly, the alarm sounded in the laboratory and the entire space began to shake.
"Oh no, we've been discovered!" exclaimed a team member.
"Find an exit quickly!" Situ Han reacted quickly. He knew that he could not continue fighting at this moment and had to evacuate as soon as possible and report the situation here to his superiors.
However, when they tried to find the exit, they found that the exit of the laboratory had been completely blocked. At this time, a cold laugh echoed in the laboratory, making people shudder.
"Do you think you can escape from my clutches?" The familiar voice sounded again. It was the murderer wearing the silver mask.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Xu Youran glared at the direction where the voice came from. She gripped the gun tightly in her hand, ready to deal with the impending danger at any time.
"Haha, my purpose is very simple." The murderer's voice was a little crazy, "I want to use these experimental results to change the world, and you will become a part of my plan."
As he spoke, the lights in the laboratory suddenly went out, and darkness fell all around. With years of training and experience, Xu Youran and Situ Han quickly adapted to the dark environment and maintained close contact with their teammates.
"Everyone be careful, he may attack in the dark." Situ Han reminded in a low voice.
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded in the darkness, followed by several gunshots. The team members quickly returned fire, but due to the obstruction of vision, the battle was extremely difficult.
"We must find a source of light!" Xu Youran shouted loudly. She knew very well that fighting the enemy in the dark was tantamount to suicide.
After some effort, they finally found the laboratory's backup power supply and successfully started it. As the lights came back on, the scene in the laboratory was clearly displayed in front of them again. However, when they looked around, they found that the murderer had disappeared.
"He ran away again..." Xu Youran said gritting her teeth. She felt unprecedented frustration and anger.
"But we are not without gain." Situ Han comforted, "At least we know that his next target may be these experimental results. We must report to our superiors as soon as possible and strengthen security to prevent him from launching another attack."
As they said this, the group quickly evacuated the laboratory and reported the situation in detail to their superiors. Although the murderer was not caught directly in this operation, they believed that as long as they continued to investigate, they would one day uncover this conspiracy hidden in the dark.
[Easter Egg Connects to Chapter 5]
On the way back to the security headquarters, Xu Youran and Situ Han fell into deep thought. They knew that this case was far from over and the real battle had just begun.
"We always seem to be led by him by the nose." Xu Youran sighed, "We have to think of a way to take the initiative."
"You're right." Situ Han nodded in agreement, "We can't passively defend anymore. We need to find his weakness and then strike a fatal blow."
At this moment, Xu Youran's phone suddenly rang. It was an anonymous text message. The text message only had one sentence: "Do you want to know the true identity of the murderer? Come to the abandoned warehouse in the old city at 10 o'clock tomorrow night."
The two looked at each other, with a determined light in their eyes. They knew that this might be the key moment for them to uncover the truth.
"We will definitely go." Xu Youran whispered, her voice full of determination and courage.
Situ Han silently clenched the gun in his hand. He knew that this battle would determine their fate and the future of the entire capital...
【Ending foreshadowing】
As night falls, the abandoned warehouse in the old city looks particularly eerie under the moonlight. Xu Youran and Situ Han lead their team members to quietly approach the warehouse, preparing for the upcoming decisive battle. However, they don't know that this decisive battle will be far more complicated and dangerous than they imagined...
