Chapter 184 Human Future Research Institute
The corpse had been dead for a long time and was wearing tattered clothes. The skin under the clothes was dry and wrinkled like old tree bark. Its face was even more hideous, in a mummy state.
A long rope was tied around his neck, and the end of the rope was tied to the observation railing on the second floor.
After Colin and others came in, it seemed to be disturbed by the wind, swaying gently like the bacon hanging in the house.
"The time of death detected is about one week ago. The exact time cannot be determined. Death was caused by mechanical asphyxiation..." After scanning with a few beams of light, the robot quickly gave the result within a minute.
"What would it take to become like this after being dead for a week?"
As they listened to its words, the same word popped up in everyone's mind, and they were not satisfied with this conclusion at all.
However, regardless of whether the result is correct or not, the speed at which it gives the result is not slow at all...
Colin sat on the back of the mechanical dog and looked back behind him. When he did not see the "Son of Dusk" coming, he looked back at the corpse hanging in the air.
What is certain is that this is a normal human corpse. There is nothing abnormal about it and it will not turn into a zombie. After confirming this, Colin was somewhat relieved.
Next, we need to find out why it hanged itself here.
"Let's take the body down and take a look first?" someone suggested, but as soon as he finished speaking, someone objected.
"No, this place doesn't look right. If we move around randomly, other problems might arise. Let's just observe and see if we can find any valuable information..."
After a brief discussion, everyone decided to keep it as it is.
The most important thing is that after arriving here, the "Son of Dusk" did not seem to have any intention of coming in.
God knows if it has anything to do with this corpse...
The odds were slim, but they didn't want to take the chance.
However, without much inspection, they saw a piece of cloth that was deliberately tied around the left wrist of the corpse.
And on this piece of cloth, they saw an irregular circle with a red dot inside and a sentence written below: Tianlong Bay, D, 801.
"Tianlong Bay, D, 801? What does that mean? A special place? Why did he write this and leave it there?"
Colin and the others were a little confused. They could tell from the three words "Tianlong Bay" that it should be referring to a certain residential area, and then Building D, No. 801?
The question is, where is Tianlong Bay?
Also, what was he going to do with this thing before he died, and who was he going to leave it to?
Just as he was wondering, Colin suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something in the chest pocket of the corpse. From his angle, he could just see a corner of the paper sticking out.
"Can anyone take out that thing from his chest?" Colin reminded.
If he came by himself, he could ask the Snow Girl to do it for him.
But now, even though he knew that he might have been suspected because of his outburst of power and reaction just now, he still didn't want to expose too much.
Anyway, he would hide it if he could, and it didn't matter if he couldn't. As long as he didn't reveal everything, the other party probably wouldn't be able to guess his identity in Bonfire Company.
Soon, under Colin's reminder, everyone carefully took out the paper hidden in the chest pocket, and then asked the robot to unfold it. The paper was not small after it was unfolded, as big as two A4 papers, but as soon as it was opened, a big swear word was seen -
"I'll fuck you, the bastard from the research institute!"
Ah, what hatred or resentment is this? He cursed so fiercely at the beginning...
Colin grumbled in his heart and looked down.
"Before setting out to look for supplies this time, the captain asked me to write a suicide note. I didn't know what to write at first. After all, I have nothing to miss except my son. But when I thought of the research institute, I knew what to write."
"If it weren't for these damn plans to upgrade humans and create gods, the situation here wouldn't be so bad. There are immortal sons of dusk everywhere, rats in the dark, and deep-sea monsters. If it weren't for their plans, none of this would have happened..."
"These big shots turned the world into a mess and then ran away. Haha, they were prepared and ran into shelters early, or even left this world, but we ordinary people didn't know until the disaster came. Damn bastards..."
"Damn the Human Upgrading Plan, these bastards. If there is a hell, I will make those bastards die again when I see them. It's because of them that we lost everything..."
"Don't let me run into these bastards, or I'll turn their heads into urinals."
…
Most of the content of the suicide note at the beginning is full of insults, insulting the relevant departments for concealing the facts, insulting the relevant departments for being irresponsible, etc. The holes poked by the pen tip in a few places show how deep his resentment towards the institute is.
However, although it is just an insult, the names of some of the disasters mentioned above and several plans make people think deeply .
In addition to these, Colin also saw some handwriting at the end that was much messier than the previous ones. It seemed that it was added in the last stage of life.
"When anyone sees this paper, I will definitely be dead..."
"I want to live, but unfortunately, I have been targeted by the natural disaster-level 'Sons of Dusk'. These products of the 'Human Upgrading Plan', except for being somewhat similar to humans, have long lost their human appearance and cognition."
"However, a few friends and I were lucky enough to make it to Shelter 21. We will die here as planned in case of an accident outside."
"This time, the storage point for supplies is right at the strip of cloth in your hand. There are the most important medicines inside, enough for the people in the settlement to use for half a year. In addition, we have another important discovery hidden there."
"Also... I don't know if anyone has seen this suicide note..."
"If you see it, please tell my son who may still be waiting: Daddy is still out there looking for Mommy. When we find Mommy, we'll come back together. Don't worry."
"According to the rules of exploration, I have a box of candies at my disposal. I hope the administrator can give him one candy every week. Don't eat too much, it will damage your teeth..."
"Finally, the same thing..."
"You bastard from the future research institute! I'll fuck your mother!"
…
Compared with the first half, the text in the second half seems to be much calmer, but it makes people feel heavier, because the writer of the previous suicide note felt that he still had a chance to come back, but the second half only has the calmness in facing death and the reluctance to leave the child.
But leaving these aside, the other things mentioned above are all very important contents.
