Chapter 4 Chapter 3 Disappeared without a trace

There is no light in the room, but the lights outside are very bright, and you can see the situation in the room: there is no one. In a daze, I closed the door behind my back, the room was dark, and there was no electric light in the room, which seemed to be a measure to prevent accidents to patients.Not in the room, but naturally in the bathroom.I went to the bathroom and opened the door. The bathroom is very different from the ordinary bathroom, so I don't need to describe it. The important thing is that there is no one in the bathroom, and Zheng Baoyun is not there. My heart beat faster, and I expected anything to happen, but I never expected that Zheng Baoyun would disappear.

Could it be that the matter was extremely serious, but I took it lightly, at this time, something unfavorable to Zheng Baoyun had already happened, and I missed the chance to save him? When I thought of this, I clenched my hands into fists, feeling extremely sad, I didn't know what to do, I stood there for a while, and then I started to check the ward, and found that all the iron bars on the window were intact. That is to say, Zheng Baoyun left from the door, if he was in danger, he would definitely not leave automatically. The more I thought about it, the more unpleasant it became. I turned around and walked out of the ward, came to Dr. Feller's room, and knocked hard on the door. After a while, Feller opened the door sleepily. I reached out and pulled him out, pointing at the door of the ward. Dr. Feller looked at it, rubbed his eyes, looked again, and was very surprised: "This...this...what's going on?"

I said, "Zheng Baoyun is gone." Feller was so startled that it was indescribable, he waved his hands wildly, but managed to calm down: "It doesn't matter, I will inform the hospital that it is very common for mentally ill patients to escape..." I said: "He didn't escape, he might have been coerced to leave." Feller looked at me with a strange expression, and said in a low voice: "You...I'm afraid it's an adventure story...you think too much." I said angrily: "Stop talking nonsense, call everyone in the room." I must have looked very fierce at that time. Fei Le was stunned for a moment, and immediately yelled downstairs. After a while, the servants and maids were all called. When they heard that Zheng Baoyun was missing, they were all panicked and overwhelmed. .

From their mouths, there was nothing to ask. Feiler had notified the hospital, and I stared at him: "As an expert, do you think it is possible for Zheng Baoyun to feel that he is in danger and ask for help?" For a moment, Feller didn't know what I meant by asking. He just stared at me. After a while, he was at a loss: "Dangerous? What kind of danger would he be in? And in his condition, he shouldn't even know what danger is." , he's a madman." I snorted: "But he asked me for help. He seemed to be under strict surveillance, and he asked me for help in a secret way."

Ferrer was still staring at me, and his eyes took me for a madman. I took him to my room, showed him the piece of cloth, and told him what happened. He was speechless: "This...impossible, if he...will do such a thing, it proves that he is already a normal person." I said in a deep voice, "He is a normal person, and he can even use a password to type out the answer." Ferrer looked extremely puzzled: "If he has already returned to normal, why is he pretending to be crazy?" That was the question that was on my mind, and of course there was no answer.At this moment, there was a rapid barking sound. As soon as I heard the barking sound, I could tell that it was a particularly sensitive hunting dog. Feller took a breath: "The mental patient escaped!" It happens from time to time. There are many mental patients who are very dangerous, and they must be found immediately, so there are very good search dogs in the hospital."

While speaking, the sound of dog barking became closer.After a while, two medium-sized dogs rushed upstairs quickly.With such a dog, it is much easier to find the missing person. When the two dogs arrived at the door of the ward, they suddenly calmed down, looking very alert. Then, they walked into the ward cautiously, sniffing here and there for two minutes. I was very impatient, because I didn't know when Zheng Baoyun disappeared, and if it was delayed for a minute, things might change a little bit more.I made a gesture to the man with the dog, and the man with the dog tugged hard, but the two dogs were still sniffing and started barking.

I know that this kind of dog has a very special ability. It can distinguish more than six thousand different smells, and after it smells a smell, it can remember it even a year later. At this time, they smelled it again and again, and it was a bit abnormal, and the person who led the dog also looked puzzled. After another two minutes, the two dogs rushed out. One of the dog-leaders was not careful, and the leash fell off his hand. The dog ran forward, and I hurriedly said, "We will catch up." I was the first person to chase out after the two dogs came out of the house. The two dogs didn't bark, they just galloped forward, and I followed behind, fortunately the moonlight was very bright, otherwise, the distance between me and the dogs would gradually widen, and it would be really difficult to chase two dark-colored dogs in the dark It's not easy.

The two dogs jumped out of the hospital wall at once, and I followed suit, and saw the dogs running towards a small hillside.The hillside was behind the hospital, and it was full of bushes and large and small stones. When I came to the bottom of the hillside, the dog had already gone up the hill and barked thrillingly on the top of the hill. I went up the mountain in one breath, and saw two dogs jumping and barking beside a huge boulder.The missing person dog has its own unique "behavioral language". If at this time, they are jumping at a box, then there is no doubt that Zheng Baoyun is in that box.

But at this time, the target of their screaming was a big rock. It is impossible for Zheng Baoyun to be inside or under the boulder, so what does the barking of these two dogs represent? The big rock was about half a person's height, and the top was quite flat. The two dogs jumped on it a few times, and then they jumped on it, still barking. change.Judging from their actions, there is no doubt that Zheng Baoyun will have been on this boulder. The question is: Where did Zheng Baoyun go after he arrived at this big rock?Why can't the hunting dog follow it? I was thinking, and I was also walking back and forth on the stone surface. Inadvertently, I stepped on a very soft place. I suddenly felt this way on a big rock. A footprint appeared on the surface, and a lot of stone powder was flying around, which was brought up by my lifting of my feet.

I quickly squatted down to check, and found that in the middle of the boulder, there was a groove with a diameter of 50 centimeters and a depth of about 20 centimeters. The groove was full of stone powder. What kind of phenomenon is that, I can't say it, the stone powder is fine and uniform, as if carefully polished.At this time, the rest of the people also ran up the hillside, and the person with the dog arrived first. I stood up and said, "Why doesn't the dog continue to chase?" The man frowned: "The scent of the tracking target suddenly disappeared here." When he said this, he naturally raised his head and glanced up.This action of his made my heart move suddenly.

After Zheng Baoyun arrived here, the smell disappeared. The most likely reason is that he left through the air, so there was no smell left.It is not uncommon to leave by air, as long as a helicopter can achieve the purpose. Assuming that Zheng Baoyun was kidnapped, the captors had already prepared a small helicopter here. Once they got here, the people boarded the helicopter, and the pursuit of the hunting dogs would naturally stop here. But I took another look at the hospital at least two kilometers away, and felt that my hypothesis was not very well-founded. Why did the kidnappers park the helicopter so far away? With a distance of nearly two kilometers, many accidents can happen. Capturing people is not an aboveboard act. There is no reason to add danger to the operation. Small helicopters can be parked closer. The servant and Dr. Feller also went up the hillside, and I pointed to the big rock: "Zheng Baoyun has been here before, and he may have been taken away by helicopter." Ferrer also raised his head and looked up—of course it was useless, there would never be a helicopter overhead at this time, but that was a natural reaction after hearing such a statement. He looked very puzzled: "Is... a kidnapping case?" I also thought of this, and I was really depressed and inexplicable. Zheng Baoyun sent me a distress signal, but I thought it was a game, and in the end, an accident happened around me, within sight. This is really a shame and a shame. When I was feeling frustrated, I stomped my feet heavily, causing the stone dust in the circular groove to rise up a lot. Feller also noticed it at this time, and he said "Hey": "Strange, who drilled a big hole here?" Feller's description was quite apt. The groove was indeed made by an extremely huge drill bit, because the stone powder was still there. I took a breath: "You mean, this...round hole..." Ferrer didn't wait for me to finish: "I didn't have it. This big rock has a flat surface and a wide view. When we have picnics, we always do it on the rock. I have been on it many times." Hearing what he said, I was stunned again. I didn't say anything at the time. I bent over and grabbed a handful of stone powder and wrapped it in a handkerchief. Fei Le looked puzzled: "What does this mean?" I shook my head: "I don't know, alas, Zheng Baoyun has already returned to normal. He continued to pretend to be crazy. He must be trying to protect himself and avoid something. He asked to see me, but after seeing me, he didn't dare to express it directly. The crisis to avoid is in the hospital." Ferrer shook his head vigorously: "You...what are you accusing? I...why should we be against him?" At this time, four male servants were also there, shaking their heads together, and my thoughts were very confused: "He is a rich man. After he wakes up, he can handle a lot of property. Maybe some people don't want to see this kind of situation." Ferrer smiled bitterly: "What does that have to do with us?" Of course, Fei Le and his servants might have been bribed, but how did Zheng Baoxuan discover the crisis?Why didn't he say anything after he woke up?It is impossible for him to find himself in danger as soon as he wakes up. I found that this assumption cannot be established—it seems that every assumption cannot be established. On the surface, something that seems quite ordinary, when you think about it deeply, becomes extremely complicated. I also shook my head involuntarily: "It seems that I have to hand it over to the police." Feller immediately agreed: "That's right, it's beyond what the hospital can handle." The police acted quite quickly, and many police officers came.Several medical officers asked detailed questions, and when they left without a conclusion, it was already dawn, but I didn't feel sleepy. I asked Dr. Feiler to find out all the records of Zheng Baoyun's examination in the past three months, and read them carefully. over again. The record is almost unchanged, only after Zheng Baoyun asked to see me did it become complicated, six experts had consultations, but there was no conclusion, no one thought that the patient had recovered, but I can be sure that Zheng Baoyun asked to see me By that time, he must have ceased to be a lunatic. They stayed for another three days, but under the police's full investigation, there was no news of Zheng Baoyun.The rich man who became a lunatic disappeared mysteriously and became a big news in the newspaper, and even I became a news person, but when he mentioned me, he was not very polite, saying that I was a "mysterious man", "the mysterious man claimed The patient once asked him for help", "The mysterious man was at the scene of the disappearance", etc., which made me even more depressed. During these two days, I investigated Zheng Baoyun's whereabouts from various aspects, talked with Bai Su on the phone, and asked Xiao Guo to introduce me to the best private detective in the Philippines, because I have little confidence in the investigation work of the local police. There are a total of three shrewd and capable private investigators. After listening to my account and conducting field investigations, they all agreed with my approval and believed that Zheng Baoyun was taken away by helicopter. But where did the helicopter go?No one saw it, as if it had disappeared into thin air. I also contacted the law firm that kept Zheng Baoyun's property, and if anyone wanted to use Zheng Baoyun's property, please notify me immediately, but after three days, there was no sign that Zheng Baoyun's property had been used. Although I feel it is my duty to pursue it, I really have no clue and don't know how to proceed.I have encountered many "difficult diseases" in the past, but there is always something to start with, unlike this time, there is no way to start at all. And I can't go back, because Zheng Baoyun once asked me for help, and the accident happened because of my mishandling.I still live in that house, and Feller and the servants are all there. After several days of observation, I can believe that none of them have anything to do with Zheng Baoyun's disappearance. The small piece of cloth was also tested, and it was indeed torn from the patient's white robe, and the word for help was proved to be written in blood. Zheng Baoyun did not know how to make his own blood flow out, and it was written on the cloth asking for help. piece, in my hands, and I... When I think of this, I am even more uncomfortable. Almost all methods were exhausted. Naturally, during all investigations, I did not disclose Zheng Baoyun's bizarre "life experience", which is his big secret. Zheng Baoyun's disappearance is already bizarre enough. I also thought that it might have something to do with his "life experience". Did someone know his secret and kidnap him? Interstellar hybrids are of course good subjects for research. Zheng Baoyun was very afraid of this before he went crazy, afraid of being cut up inch by inch for research. On the third night, it was close to midnight, and I was still on the big rock. During these three days, there was a heavy rain and a short period of strong wind. The tank is here, I have taken the stone powder for testing, the result is: the stone powder is formed by high temperature. High temperatures can turn stones into powder.It sounds weird, but if the temperature exceeds 2,000 degrees Celsius, this will happen.And what can produce such high temperatures on this hillside, I can't think of it. It was very late at night, and I was restless and sleepy. I sat on the boulder and sulked. Looking towards the hospital, I saw a person walking towards the hillside quickly. When he approached, I saw that it was Fei. Dr. Le, he seemed to come to me for something, he walked in a hurry, and after a while, he was panting and went up the hill. I saw that he looked very puzzled, but he just looked at me and didn't speak. I made a gesture: "What's new?" Ferrer blinked hard: "That piece of cloth...the word written in blood." I didn't understand what he meant, looked at him, and he said: "I want to find out further, is it Zheng Baoyun's blood or not." I snorted: "I see, he has no chance to get other people's blood." Feller took a breath: "It's always good to confirm." I'm not very interested: "Just do a blood test, Zheng Baoyun's blood type is—" Feller said: "Type AB." I raised my eyebrows: "Isn't the blood on the cloth AB type?" Fei Le pursed his lips, as if he didn't know how to speak. I was very suspicious and asked, "Isn't it his blood?" Feller took another breath: "It's extremely weird, the blood on the cloth doesn't belong to any type at all, not even the rarest P, MN, RH, etc. His blood type, in the history of human medicine, has no blood type." Records, there is no way to classify them at all.” Feller spoke in one breath, under the twilight of the stars and the moon, his expression looked strange and inexplicable. When I heard this, I couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Zou Baoyun had a record that his blood type was AB. That might be false, but it was more likely to be true, because he never knew that he was an alien hybrid, so naturally he would not deliberately hide anything during the blood test. But now, his blood type cannot be classified. Because of this, I can be sure that the blood on the cloth belongs to Zheng Baoyun, other people's blood will not be so weird, only the blood of alien hybrids will be so weird. What does that mean?It shows that after Zheng Baoyun was born, until he became a lunatic, all his development was the same as that of people on earth. The red blood cells in his blood contained AB agglutinogen. However, the structure of his body functions must be gradually changing, and this change may have gradually formed during the years when he became a madman.His appearance didn't seem to have changed much, but at least his blood had changed, and he didn't know what blood type he was. Is his bone structure changing too?Ribs turned into plates like his father?The abdominal cavity also grew bones? There is another change, which I didn't notice at the time, but now that I think about it, it is very noticeable: his strength has become very strong, and a punch can break a person's ribs. Ordinary people don't have such great strength. Is this an alien? human characteristics? For a split second, my mind was so disorganized that Ferrer asked, "Why is that happening?" I swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "This...could it be...the blood has dried up long ago, so it can't be tested?" My question was naturally very naive, Fei Le shook his head immediately, so I could only say: "It's just that the blood type can't be classified? Nothing else is different? The cells... are all normal?" Ferrer stared at me: "Did you know that he was different from ordinary people?" I was taken aback: "Is there really a difference?" Ferrer nodded: "Yes, the ratio of red and white blood cells is completely wrong. There are an astonishing amount of white blood cells. Ordinary people can no longer survive in this situation." I also remembered that Zheng Baoyun's father had only been sick once in his life, which was naturally due to the large number of white blood cells in the blood and the strong ability to eliminate bacteria. This is also characteristic of aliens. That is to say, Zheng Baoyun, a semi-alien, has two stages of development. In the first stage, before he was about thirty years old, he was completely like a human on earth. After that, he gradually approached an alien. Will become exactly like aliens? I was thinking about it in a mess, and Fei Le's expression became very mysterious. He approached me and lowered his voice: "Mr. Wei, since Mr. Zheng asked to see you, I have collected a lot of information about you." I responded casually: "That's not a secret, my experience is never made public." Fei Le's appearance was even more mysterious: "Tell me, Zheng Baoyun, he...you knew he was an alien." He actually brought it up like this directly, which really shocked me. I didn't know how to answer it, and my demeanor was naturally as if I had already answered it. Feller let out an exclamation of "Ah": "He is an alien. Aliens will also become lunatics? God! I have checked him so many times, but I didn't find it. Why did he wake up? Still pretending to be crazy, why did he..." Next, Ferrer asked seventeen or eight "whys", and I had to stop him loudly: "Zheng Baoyun is not an alien." Feller opened his eyes wide and let out an "ah" sound, not knowing what to say. He waved his hand, and I said again, "He's not an alien. His situation is very complicated." Ferrer stayed for a while longer, with a puzzled look on his face, but more disappointment: "He's not an alien...then the explanation I thought of...for his mysterious disappearance...of course it doesn't work either." My heart skipped a beat. I've been with Feller for the past few days, and I know he's very flexible and alert. What inferences does he have about Zheng Baoyun's disappearance?So what if it's an alien?Zheng Baoyun is at least half an alien. I asked, "What explanation do you have in mind?" Feller pointed at Dashi: "He went back. A spaceship stopped here to pick him up. He boarded the spaceship and went back to his own planet." I straightened my body, Feller's deduction couldn't be simpler, and I immediately looked at the groove in the middle of the boulder.I remembered the test results that the high temperature turned the stone into powder.And when the spaceship is taking off or landing, isn't it a common shot in the movie that emits high-temperature flames? However, Ferrer's inference is also difficult to establish - so far, there is hardly a single inference that can be established. I shook my head: "If he goes back, why does he ask me for help?" Feller was speechless, hesitating: "Could it be... another kind of alien will be against him?" I sighed: "Star Wars chose the lunatic asylum battlefield?" Feller himself felt something was wrong, scratching his head: "He's not an alien, why is his blood type so weird?" I thought about it, and then said: "This is one of his big secrets. He is most likely an alien hybrid. It is for this reason that he became a lunatic." Fei Le was so surprised that he opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it, and couldn't help but blinked. After a while, he sincerely admired: "Mr. Wei, it's good to know you. There are so many strange things." I was a little bit ironic: "What's good, people are gone." Ferrer licked his lips, looking anxious to know the details, but embarrassed to press me to speak. Anyway, the night was long, and I couldn't sleep, and I was irritable, so I sat down on the boulder with him, and told him how I met Zheng Baoyun. Feller listened with gusto and was amazed. When I mentioned that I had asked a doctor who treated Zheng Tianlu for verification, the doctor's name was Feige....
