Metropolis: Attack, Fat House

Because it is a mountainous area, there are luxuriant weeds and wild flowers everywhere.

Xiao Yao discovered that on the grass under her feet, weird ‘fungi’ similar to ‘horse dung bags’ were actually growing.

The scientific name of this kind of thing is "Puffball".

After mature and dry, the epidermis breaks down and emits smoke and dust, which are powdery spores used for bacterial reproduction.

But the puffball at Xiao Yao's feet is a bit different, with pink dots all over it.

The epidermis is very thin and somewhat transparent, and it is obvious that there is powder in it.

Xiao Yao covered his mouth and nose and stepped on it.

puff!

The weird "horse dung bag" in front of me made a muffled noise, exploding a cloud of pink smoke.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yao instantly backed away.

There were too many objects resembling this kind of ‘spore’ around him, and he stepped on it a lot.

Xiao Yao didn't dare to breathe, so he could only step back again, until he exited this area, and he couldn't see such things, then he let go of his nose and mouth.

But as soon as he breathed, he fainted and his expression changed drastically.

Is it floating so far?

He withdrew a full thirty meters away, when he lowered his hand and breathed again.

The uncomfortable feeling dissipated.

"Doctor!"

Xiao Yao shouted, calling Gong Lingyue, telling her about her findings.

Gong Lingyue's eyes lit up and she ran to the ‘spore’ area.

Soon, covering his mouth and ran back.

"The species that I haven't seen before, the fungus category, seem to have problems."

Gong Lingyue quickly said: "What's the effect, you have to take it back for a test before it becomes clear."

"That's OK, you can bring some back to the laboratory, let the child prodigy drive you back, and call me anytime if you have any questions."

Xiao Yao ordered Sun Lie to be called.

Let him accompany Gong Lingyue to collect those weird ‘spores’.

However, the two rushed to leave and went back to the city to study this thing.

"It's probably that kind of stuff that leads to hallucinations and manic moods."

Xiao Yao frowned and said to the remaining team members, "Although the thing can blow far when there is wind, it should not be possible to explode by itself without touching it. Also, we saw last night. The white shadow that arrived is very problematic, is it really a ghost?"

Ye Qingzhu and others were calm.

Such things as ghosts are too mysterious. No one has seen them in the past, and they don't believe that such things really exist.

The situation at the entrance of the mountain temple last night could not be explained.

You can call it a white shadow.

You say she is a ghost and it's okay.

Everyone returned to the temple.

Guo Jia took out a few towels from the trunk of the car, poured mineral water, and everyone covered their mouths and noses.

It can be regarded as a simple ‘antivirus’.

The mountain temple couldn't find the problem, but everyone searched it again. After not finding the situation, it was night and they were ready to go back to the city.

When everyone was about to leave, Gong Lingyue called.

"Boss, that kind of thing is called Grimace Puffball, it's rare in our country, or almost none."

Gong Lingyue said on the phone: "It is very harmful. It is similar to psilocybin and tetrahydromethanol. If humans take it, it is likely to cause emotional disturbances and a feeling of isolation from the surrounding environment. It seems to have entered a dream. It still looks awake from the outside, but I don’t know what I’m doing for a long time, and it can also make people feel irritable. In foreign countries, grimace puppets are also rare, and they are also classified as controlled hazardous plants. "

"You mean to say."

Xiao Yao squinted, "We don't have this kind of thing in China, but someone brought it back from abroad to grow it?"

"It's very possible."

Gong Lingyue also did not give an accurate statement, "It is almost impossible for us to have this kind of thing in our country. Moreover, it is difficult to cultivate Grimace Puppets and it must have special soil. There are not many places where it can be used. , The price is extremely expensive, each gram is almost thirty times the value of gold!"

Thirty times the price of gold?

Xiao Yao can't calm down.

Think about that area, almost one or two acres of land are all of this kind of thing.

How much is this worth?

Here comes the problem.

There are so many ‘ghost puffballs’ in this area, why haven’t they been discovered?

However, after thinking about it.

Few people have seen this kind of thing, let alone know it.

But when I thought that this ‘Ghost Puffball’ was actually an alien species...

Xiao Yao thought again.

‘Invasive species’, including animals and plants, are now almost impossible to pass the test.

Do all customs officers eat dry food?

If it was smuggled into the country before.

Especially forty or fifty years ago.

Is it possible?

Really!

"What is its purpose?"

Xiao Yao asked in a deep voice.

"An important raw material for hallucinogens, which can cause confusion in the central nervous system, cause changes in feelings and emotions, and produce illusions and hallucinations on time and space, until it leads to self-distortion, delusions, and split thinking, natural or artificial. Psychotropic drugs.!"

Gong Lingyue gave the answer, "It is very likely, and it is also the main raw material for some D products!"

Xiao Yao: "..."

"But it's not very sure about the purpose."

Gong Lingyue explained: "D products are basically hallucinogenic, but not all hallucinogens are D products. Take LSD as an example, it is a strictly controlled hallucinogen that harms more than most D products. But it is not addictive. That is to say, D product brings people a sense of pleasure, while hallucinogens may bring horrible illusions and cause permanent damage to the brain. This thing is divided in the country. It's vague, but it's meticulously divided abroad."

Xiao Yao has a headache.

You don't need to ask, you know, in China, the grimace puffball must be a controlled item, similar to ‘poppy 潥’.

It is definitely illegal to plant it.

Could it be said that someone in the country accidentally discovered this place where ‘ghost face puffballs’ could be grown, and started to grow them secretly, and then sold them for money?

Then a group of stupid youths ran here by accident, and ended up with a D, causing a murder case?

Is there such a coincidence?

Xiao Yao thinks it may be possible, but it will definitely not be so great.

There is still a big doubt in the case.

That iron chopsticks.

By questioning two female suspects.

They all said that the four of them did not bring iron chopsticks when they travelled.

So where did this iron chopsticks come from? .
