When Xu Tianâs mask was removed, everyone looked over and saw that the man in front of them looked the same as the Xu Tian in the photos, except that he looked like he was in his thirties. He felt a bit like Luo Tian; capable, taciturn, and having experienced the ups and downs of life.
Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao and asked, âDid you just call Zhang Ying?â
âEn.â Zhan Zhao put the phone away and asked Xu Tian, âZhang Ying said that this is revenge, itâs for you right?â
Xu Tian glanced at Zhan Zhao and asked, âAre you the police?â While speaking, he pulled off the chains, opened the cage, and walked out, âWhere is Miaomiao?â
Zhan Zhao raised an eyebrow and asked, âIs Zhang Ying really Zhang Miaomiao?â
Xu Tian nodded.
âI donât know where she is, but she should be safe. Your daughter is being well taken care of by Zhao Jue.â Zhan Zhao said.
Xu Tian breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhan Zhao asked, âThen⊠will you come back with us and sit down?â
Xu Tian looked at the two and nodded, âEn, Miaomiao asked me to go with you.â
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang asked officers to take the people who were transporting Xu Tian back to the station, and then got into their car with Xu Tian and returned to the police station.
Luo Tian and Xu Tian were sitting in the back seat of the car, with Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao up front. Looking at Xu Tian next to him⊠he felt surprised⊠Why arenât they old? How are they so young?
Zhan Zhao looked back, looking at Xu Tian he said, âWe went to find your mother.â
Xu Tian looked and asked, âIs she okay?â
âEn, your friend takes good care of her.â Zhan Zhao replied.
Xu Tian nodded, seeming a little sad.
âIs it because you look young that you canât see her?â Zhan Zhao asked.\n
Xu Tian raised his eyes to look at him, âCan you imagine that a forty- or fifty-year-old son suddenly appears to only be in his twenties?â
âTwenties?â Bai Yutang frowned, looking at Zhan Zhao, âBut he looks more than thirtyâŠâ After this⊠he suddenly stopped talking, frowned, and opened his eyes wide.
Zhan Zhao nodded
Xu Tian couldnât help but smile when he saw the exchange between the two, âYou two are very keen.â
âWhatâs the matter?â Luo Tian asked Zhan Zhao puzzledly.
Zhan Zhao frowned, âThose videos sent by Zhao Jue.â
In a daze, Luo Tian suddenly realized what he meant⊠At first, he was not old, but then he suddenly died of old age.
âThatâs how you are?â Zhan Zhao asked.
Xu Tian was silent for a long time, then nodded, âIn the first ten years⊠I did not get old, but rather got younger and younger. In the last year, I have been getting old very quickly, in just one month I got quite old⊠and I heard that it makes you age in a stepped manner, so I donât know⊠how many days are left.â
âIt was Li Hao who made you like this?â
Xu Tian shook his head, âHe was not called Li Hao⊠his name is Li Yuanhao.â
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were taken aback, then frowned â Li Yuanhao? They have never heard of this name.
âThe identity of Li Yuanhao is already dead.â Xu Tian said, âHe has a lot of secrets, and I donât quite understand it. I only know that it is related to Miaomiaoâs life experiences.â
âHer life experiences?â Zhan Zhao thought for a while and asked, âIs Zhang Miaomiao related to the Bathory family?â
Xu Tian gave Zhan Zhao a slightly surprised look, then nodded, âIt seems that you already have a lot of information.â
âOhâŠâ Zhan Zhao touched his chin, and spoke clearly, âNo wonder Li Hao would show me that picture. He wanted to find out if I knew about the Bathory family.â
Bai Yutang frowned, âDonât worry, I have already sent someone to bring him to the police station while we were taking action⊠Under our control, he should not be able to escape.â
âHe should have already left.â Xu Tian said suddenly.\nZhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at him and asked, âHow do you know?â
âHe is very cunning⊠He may seem to be very useless and lacking in courage, but that is just his disguise, he has a great background.â
Bai Yutang frowned, took his phone out, and dialed a number. Sure enough, he couldnât get through to the person sent to catch Li Hao.
âNot good.â Bai Yutang took his phone and called for support.
Not long after, someone called and said that the police officers were stunned with a stun gun and that Li Hao was nowhere to be seen.
Bai Yutang frowned and gritted his teeth, âLet him run. I didnât expect him to be so powerful, I thought he was just an ordinary businessman.â
Zhan Zhao patted him and said, âDonât worry.â
The car returned to the police station. Opening the car door, they saw someone standing at the gate of the police station, waiting; it was a woman in a black suit.
âA Tian.â Zhang Ying, or Zhang Miaomiao, screamed and ran over, holding Xu Tian in surprise and joy. Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were a little puzzled, why does it seem that they have just been reunited after a long time apart? Could it be that Xu Tian was locked up for a long time? At this time, a black Bentley drove up not far away.
Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhan Zhao, âDidnât I blow that up? Leonard is very stubborn⊠he looked for the same car.â
At this time, the car door opened, and Zhao Jue waved at Xu Tian, âHurry up!â
Xu Tian looked back at Zhang Ying, and the two reluctantly said goodbye before Xu Tian ran to Zhao Jueâs car.
âOh.â Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao wanted to stop him, asking in their hearts what this is for.
Zhang Ying stopped them and said, âLet him go, his being cured or not depends on this, it canât be delayed even a second. If there is anything, I will tell you directly, I will not leave.â
The police officers all looked at Bai Yutang. Bai Yutang frowned and glanced at Zhan Zhao subconsciously. Zhan Zhao nodded, so Bai Yutang let Xu Tian go. Xu Tian got into the car, quickly closed the door, and the car drove away quickly.
Zhang Ying watched the car drive far away, then walked into the police station with Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and the others, and went upstairs.
When they came to the SCI office, everyone let Zhang Ying sit down. Zhang Ying raised her eyes and looked around, First, she saw the oil painting that the twins had bought hung on the wall. She walked over slowly, picked up the oil painting, and looked at it.
At this time, the little lion jumped off the sofa, walked over, bit Zhan Zhaoâs trousers, and acted like a baby. Zhan Zhao bent over and picked it up. Bai Yutang looked at Jiang Ping, and Jiang Ping pointed to the empty baby bottle, âIâve already fed him.â
Holding the little lion in his arms, Zhan Zhao walked to the big sofa in the lounge and sat down. Zhang Ying looked at the painting quietly for a while, then turned to look at Bai Yutang, âShall we talk here or go to the interrogation room?â\n\nZhan Zhao and Bai Yutang couldnât help frowning, âMedicine?â
âEn.â Zhang Ying nodded, âOur Bathory family members age very slowly and have a long life span, most likely due to some genetic reasons.â
After everyone watching through the mirror heard this, they looked at Gongsun. Gongsun shrugged, âHumans themselves do have some special features which can be hard to explain clearly.â
âShe was very beautiful, so she was afraid that she would get old.â Zhang Ying spoke slowly, âShe looked for doctors and looked for records in ancient books. She tried almost all of the methods to refine medicine that would allow her to attain immortality, just to be able to keep herself young forever.â
Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang felt helpless. Fear of old age is indeed a common problem for women⊠no, to be precise, it should be a common problem for all humans.
âBut she is not a selfish and vicious woman.â Zhang Ying said, âShe shared the secret recipe for maintaining appearance with many people.â
âWell⊠her behaviour should have offended the church and many other people, right?â Zhan Zhao asked.
Zhang Ying smiled, âIn the world at that time, it was God, not medicine, that could make people live forever, healthy and youthful.â
Bai Yutang nodded, no wonder they encountered persecution in the end.
âIn addition, she had fascinating possessions and beauty,â Zhang Ying sighed softly, âso she was sentenced to life imprisonment and died in her attic.â
âWhat about your family?â Zhan Zhao asked.
âAt that time, there were many descendants of the Bathory family. My ancestors should be Countess Bathoryâs cousins. Countess Bathory seems to have told her the secret recipe for beauty, or maybe she had eaten too much of that medicine when she was younger⊠In short, the children she gave birth to later barely grew old and they lived in good health. When they grew up, some of them even experienced reverse aging. It is hard to imagine that some family members stopped aging in their twenties or thirties, so they will always be in twenties or thirtiesâŠâ
Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang couldnât help frowning â it was hard to imagine.
Everyone outside looked at Gongsun, and Gongsun shrugged, âCases of agelessness do exist, such as those who suffer from progeria⊠There used to be cases where a child that looks six or seven years old has actually lived thirty of forty years. However, this disease is quite mysterious. When the body of some people stops growing, their intelligence and various functions will also stop developing, which is equivalent to a child who is not growing up⊠But there are also some people who, after they have matured in all aspects, stop growing when they are young and perfect, they are much closer to vampires.â
Everyone nodded â indeed.
âBut this kind of human is rare.â Ma Xin added, âThe probability of their existence is almost zero.â
Â
âIn fact, this is also a variation of human beings, it is a disease where the body will never grow old and never die. This does not conform to the law of conservation of energy. The internal organs are being used, so sooner or later, those parts and components will be damaged. Complete immortality⊠is absolutely impossible, people in this family just age slower⊠In addition, looking at the time when Countess Bathory passed away, her lifespan was not much longer than a normal person. In other words, it is merely a representation of immortality.â Gongsun said as he touched his chin, âBut what exactly is that blood-sucking helmet used for?â
