Chapter 177: A Mysterious Visitor

Yang Wensong was the name of Yang Xue's father that has been missing for years. He is also the former Site-14 Site Director's brother, Yang Wenbai. Before Yang Wenbai took the blame and resigned, he had spoken to Yang Xue and Zhang Jue about him.

Yang Wensong was an influential researcher many years ago. One day, a staff member from one of the foundation's sites came to ask him for help. Then he never returned and was never heard from again.

Not only that. All information about him was erased from this world. He existed only in the memories of Yang Wenbai and Yang Xue. Zhang Jue had carefully analyzed that there could be two conditions that caused this.

Either Yang Xue or Yang Wenbai had hallucinations. While in reality, there was no Yang Wensong Or Yang Wensong's existence was completely erased because of the impact of a certain anomaly.

After Yang Wenbai retired, Yang Xue didn't stop pursuing this matter. But she knew she was not strong enough to launch an investigation forcefully. It might involve more people than she would need to, so she did not do it.

Unexpectedly, she would see this familiar name now. Yang Xue's hand trembled slightly. Zhang Jue held her hand before she calmed herself. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

Seeing Yang Xue's reaction, Huang Xingwen asked, "You know this name?"

Yang Wensong and Yang Wenbai, these two names looked like family relatives. It is easy to create old-fashioned documents, and non-existent employees to create something like this. Working in a Foundation, something like this was very important and crucial.

Huang Xingwen probably told Yang Xue this for a reason. Yang Xue didn't answer his words.

Zhang Jue patted Yang Xue's shoulder and said to Huang Xingwen, "Site Director Huang, take us to see that person."

Led by Huang Xingwen, Zhang Jue, and Yang Xue arrived at a certain ward in the hospital site. Walking to the door, Yang Xue suddenly stopped in her tracks. Zhang Jue patted her shoulder before she mustered up the courage to open the door.

Inside the room, a patient in a hospital gown was lying on a bed with various instruments and catheters inserted into his body. Yang Xue's heart thumped, and her eyes slowly looked at the patient's face. It was different from her thoughts.

This person is not her father. Yang Xue gently breathed a sigh of relief. She doesn't know if she should be happy or sad about it.

Zhang Jue gave her a look. Yang Xue shook her head gently.

Zhang Jue asked, "Director Huang. Besides that document, do you have any other findings?"

Huang Xingwen took out a worn-out backpack from the staff behind him. "Inside it is everything this patient was carrying in the first place. Along with the preliminary report made by the investigators."

The first time he faced Zhang Jue, he was a little nervous. But the feeling Zhang Jue gave him was not as oppressive as an ordinary leader, unlike their captain. Zhang Wei's mood gradually calmed down, and he began to recall what had happened that day.

"It was 2 AM, and we were patrolling around Site-14 as usual. Then suddenly, a strange sound came over the intercom, and the captain felt that something was wrong. So, we started to look around."

"I searched the area with a flashlight and found this man on a large rock. He was carrying a worn-out backpack, and the man had passed out."

Zhang Jue made a pause gesture, "You mean he had already passed out when you arrived?"

Zhang Wei nodded, "Yes."

Zhang Jue asked again, "What about that stone?"

"It landed right next to him."

"You didn't see who wounded him?"

"No."

Zhang Jue cupped his chin, "Go on."

"Then I reported the news to my captain and stood guard there myself."

"The captain told us to transport him back to the site first and hand him over to the doctor waiting there."

"Later, we went to look around again and found nothing suspicious at all. After that, we returned to the site with everyone else, and that was it."

He sent Zhang Wei away and fell into deep thought.

Yang Xue looked at the patient thoughtfully and then asked, "Did you find anything?"

Zhang Jue cupped his chin, "Based on my experience of several hundred episodes of Detective Conan. I think this person tried to commit suicide."

Yang Xue nodded, "I think so too."
