Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1641: Chapter 1621: Beastman

When she took a cab to the familiar military district compound, she felt the atmosphere was quite strange at the entrance, as if there was no one around? Moreover, the gaze of the guards at the entrance seemed extraordinarily intense, as if scrutinizing something...

”Hello, may I trouble you to help me contact Elder Deng?” Luo Qianqian directly walked forward, facing the scrutinizing gaze with frank composure, adding a touch of grace to her calm demeanor, flashing a faint smile with white teeth.

”Please register.”

After registering, a call was soon connected, indicating a visitor had arrived. Within a few minutes, Luo Qianqian saw the familiar elderly figure rushing out, a look of surprise instantly on his face.

Where’s Elder Deng’s guard? How could they let this elderly man run on his own? Aren’t they... um, aren’t they worried about any mishap?

”Elder Deng!” Luo Qianqian waved hurriedly, signaling she was right there, no need to rush.

Seeing Luo Qianqian, Elder Deng’s eyes lit up again, his steps hastening even more.

”You little rascal, why are you just getting here now?” Luo Qianqian hadn’t said anything yet when she heard Elder Deng’s robust voice, ”Hurry up and come take a look, we’ve been worried sick, why are you only coming back now!”

”...” It seems, she should call it coming out, returning there is going back, right?

Apparently, they have already moved the whole family...

”What’s going on?” Luo Qianqian quickly asked.

”We retrieved someone from the sea, but this person... is a bit strange, and... oh, I can’t explain it, come and see for yourself.” With that, Elder Deng directly pulled Luo Qianqian into the car.

Luo Qianqian was full of surprise, looking at the familiar person, not particularly nervous, just frowning as she sat down.

There seemed to be something strange about these people?

Soon, they arrived at another location, Elder Deng hurriedly pulled Luo Qianqian out of the car.

”Follow me.” Elder Deng got out of the car then quickly gave Luo Qianqian a look: ”Be careful.”

”Ah?” Luo Qianqian looked at Elder Deng in confusion, but didn’t say anything else.

In front was a strange little cabin, but the cabin seemed empty.

Then she watched Elder Deng click clack clack on the mismatched code lock on the cabin with a certain degree of incongruity.

Then he pulled Luo Qianqian into the cabin, where a long downward tunnel appeared.

And the tunnel faintly emitted light, the tiles on the stairs were very exquisite, unlike ordinary cement steps.

Luo Qianqian looked at the tunnel in front of her in bewilderment: ”What’s this? Where is this?”

Elder Deng, without saying a word, pulled Luo Qianqian down the stairs, facing a scene that had an uncanny resemblance to the original base, except now the cabin was in a very conspicuous park. Who would have thought such a grand scene would be beneath the Zhejiang Institute of Technology?

No matter how hard Luo Qianqian tried, it was difficult to believe that this brightly lit place was beneath that seemingly ordinary park.

”Come.” Elder Deng took a deep breath, casually picked up a gas mask from the wall and handed it to Luo Qianqian, while he also casually picked one up and put it on.

Luo Qianqian, bewildered, put on the mask, following Elder Deng’s figure.

Elder Deng’s steps were steady, but there was clearly some fear towards the place they were heading.

Although Luo Qianqian didn’t know why, she felt Elder Deng’s anxiety.

Frowning slightly, she looked at the bright corridor’s glass room at the end, puzzled, she glanced at Elder Deng.

Elder Deng took a deep breath before holding his breath, pushed open the door in front of them: ”This is the one we retrieved...”

Before Luo Qianqian stood a man with a tail, the tail having spotted black-yellow fur, while his body bore normal skin, looking extremely peculiar. The man had cat ears atop his head with somewhat strange colors, and his hair was intertwined with black and yellow. His important areas were covered by a white cloth, various instruments connected to him, showing his life signs were stable, albeit appearing somewhat slow, akin to entering a hibernation state, self-protective. Or... a vegetative state?

”This...” Luo Qianqian was initially startled, then thought of Elder Haan, considering Elder Haan also had half a body...

However, if the man in front wasn’t mentally ill, surely he wouldn’t simply transplant a pair of ears and then add a tail? Then he shouldn’t be... that kind of experiment subject, so...

”Where was he found?” Luo Qianqian puzzledly furrowed her brows, calmly took out her phone and snapped a few pictures, not forgetting to explain: ”I’ll take it back to show my friends, you know, I’m not a native, there’s still a lot I don’t know, I have to rely on friends.”

”True, we understand that logic too.” Elder Deng sighed, slowly revealing the man’s origins.

This man was washed ashore by the seawater, discovered by elderly morning exercise swimmers who then called the police.

Upon discovery, they saw the man’s ears and tail, merely thinking it a hobby, not believing it was innate, considering the man had no sensation, nor did the tail or ears move.

The most notable point is that similar things, cosplayers, are often seen on TV, so it isn’t particularly difficult to understand.

”However, after discovering him, the elderly man who carried him to the beach awaiting police, soon checked into the hospital and shortly after succumbed to serious injuries...” Elder Deng sighed, a mysterious apprehension regarding the man, requiring full protection anytime in contact with him.

”Could it be something contagious?” Luo Qianqian frowned, donned a glove and lifted the tail for a curious look.

She had previously wanted to see Elder Haan’s tail, but how could Elder Haan let her see? In the end, it was left unresolved.

Moreover, Elder Haan’s bear and human parts were clearly divided, the boundary clear, without any overlap.

Reflecting on this, Luo Qianqian slightly furrowed her brows, actually if Snow Palace’s technology were researched thoroughly, perhaps it could contribute to human progress.

However, there’s also no guarantee of being utilized only for positive purposes, given people now do anything for profit.

Yet... she seems to have her own team.

Lu Simiao, her brother-in-law seems to be researching this area?
