Bai Xuedong introduced Lu Xiao with a smile.

"Xiao Lu, you may not have seen Hunes's signed papers in those famous scientific magazines."

"Hughes is not just a researcher in the field of biology, he is also involved in research in many fields of science."

"It's just that he doesn't like chasing fame and fortune, so he keeps a low profile in the scientific research circle."

Lu Xiao I really want to say something at this time.

"To disappoint you, I haven't read those famous scientific magazines."

Bai Xuedong didn't notice the change in Lu Xiao's expression, and continued to introduce.

"That young man is a student brought out by Hunes."

"When Hunes came to our country, he came with us."

"This young man is very powerful, even I admire him."

Lu Xiao nodded awkwardly.

He felt that Bai Xuedong was talking about a very high-end topic, and he felt like he couldn't get a word in.

I could only keep nodding in agreement.

In the interrogation room.

Hughes looked at Driver with a smile.

"Sir, we have investigated your information clearly."

"Your surname is Hu, and your name is Hu Haichao."

"There's no problem with your origin or anything."

"My growth trajectory was very ordinary. After graduating from college, I married a woman and then started working."

"For some reason, you left the position where you have worked for more than ten years and became Taxi Driver, right?"

At this time, Driver had never experienced such a big scene.

Although he had many lives on his hands, it was the first time in his life to be interrogated like this.

Especially since the other party even knows his own growth trajectory, this makes him feel as if his psychological defense is slowly crumbling.

His pupils contracted violently.

He also tried to struggle, but the more he struggled, the tighter the nylon rope tied to his body became.

And some of his abilities cannot be used.

Seeing that Driver didn't speak, Xiu Ens nodded and continued.

"We took some blood and flesh samples from you for testing."

"The test results show that you still retain human characteristics."

"So, can you tell me why you became like this?"

Driver is still silent.

Xiu Ens was not in a hurry and stared at Driver calmly.

Behind the one-way glass, Lu Xiao said with some confusion.

"What's going on with Driver now? Why did he attack me then?"

Recalling that horrific scene, he had goosebumps all over his body.

Bai Xuedong looked at Li Doctor beside him.

"Li Doctor, you know better. Please explain it to Xiao Lu."

Li Doctor pushed up his glasses first, and then spoke.

"This is what designs our current research area."

"Strictly speaking, that Taxi Driver is no longer a human being."

"Although Hunes Doctor said he still retains human characteristics."

"This has something to do with yesterday's experimental project."

"To be precise, he was contaminated."

"Pollution from psychological to physical levels."

Hearing this, Lu Xiao nodded in understanding.

"Then what does this have to do with him attacking me?"

A glimmer of light flashed in Li Doctor's eyes.

"He needs to make himself stronger by hunting other creatures."

"Maybe he doesn't know why he did it."

"We judge that this is driven by some kind of instinct."

As he spoke, he looked at Lu Xiao.

"For him, hunting humans is more convenient and faster."

Lu Xiao This time I understood what Li Doctor meant.

"In other words, he can also hunt other creatures?"

Li Doctor nodded.

"Yes, we have other research targets, and they set their hunting targets on other creatures."

"Proven through their descriptions and subsequent experiments."

"Eating the flesh and blood of creatures can make them stronger."

"Powerful in every sense of the word."

After listening to Li Doctor's words, Lu Xiao took a deep breath.

"So, that Taxi Driver wants to eat me?"

This made him feel ridiculous.

Hearing this, Li Doctor turned his attention to Bai Xuedong.

Bai Xuedong nodded.

"Say it, Comrade Xiao Lu is not an outsider."

After receiving Bai Xuedong's instruction, Li Doctor continued.

"To be precise, his wife wants to eat you."

"This has nothing to do with him."

Lu Xiao has a weird expression.

"How do you know this?"

Li Doctor's tone was still calm.

"We watched him for a long time."

"We've had him on our radar since his first hunt."

"Every time he goes out to prepare for a hunt, there will be a noticeable change in his behavior."

"Then after eating, they will return to their original behavior."

"At first, we thought he was just an ordinary schizophrenic patient and prepared to arrest him."

"According to the procedure, we first checked his identity information and found out that he also has a wife."

"During the period of our observation, we did not see his wife."

"This confirms to us that he is no longer human."

Lu Xiao felt a strange emotion in his heart. He tried hard to control his emotions and asked.

"So you ignored the others and were hunted by him?"

Even though he had tried very hard to control his emotions, his tone was still trembling.

Bai Xuedong sighed and said nothing.

On the contrary, Li Doctor said in a calm tone.

"Yes, because we need to know his specific abilities and combat effectiveness."

"And we need to carefully target him."

"This will ensure that when we launch operations against him, more people will not be affected."

After hearing Li Doctor's explanation, Lu Xiao's heavy heart relaxed a lot.

It's like the trolley problem.

A man is tied to a tram track and a tram is about to run over the innocent man.

And you have a switch at hand that can change the tram track.

As long as the switch is pressed, the trolley will move to another track and the innocent person will be saved.

But there were also five people tied to the track at the other end.

There is no doubt that their organization is the one who holds the switch to change the trajectory.

And their choice is to save more people.

This is understandable.

Lu Xiao took a deep breath, as if he knew that his tone just now was wrong, so he apologized to Li Doctor.

"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you just now."

Li Doctor took off his glasses, wiped the lenses with his white coat, and then put them on again.

"We don't need to understand or apologize."

His tone was still calm, as if there was no wave at all.

Bai Xuedong sighed softly, and then patted Lu Xiao heavily on the shoulder.

"Okay, no need to talk about such a heavy topic."

"Let's continue watching the interrogation."
