Closer to My True Form Every Day

Chapter 16: Evolution

The families of these young people were either very rich or influential, and they usually acted arrogantly. But the PB didnt care about your familys background, they wouldnt talk favors or money with you, they were a group of staunch data defenders.

Survival was a topic of common concern around the world. The establishment of the sixth database was to help survive for a longer time. And PB, who served the Sixth Database, occupied the moral high ground, had political support, and power in its hands, so it couldnt care less about your background. Facing such a group of people, even a coward would not dare to confront them head-on.

Whoever was caught by them and shouted, My dad is XX, would only get a cold response: Thats good, lets call your dad over and talk about it.

Therefore, chickening out decisively was also a wise choice.

Of course, the PB didnt have that much time and energy to pay attention to those who were just big talkers. However, if someone happened to be heard talking big, they would still receive a little warning.

The five helicopters that attracted everyones attention landed on the tarmac near Mount Yues management office. A total of eight people from the PB came this time, and most of the planes were equipped with data gathering equipment. The leader was tall and thin, in his forties or fifties, with a stern and unsmiling face. He quickly entered the room and received the investigation summary handed over by the person in charge of the Mount Yue management office.

The person in charge said, Captain Yuan, we have compared the DNA sequencing results with multiple target sequences in the database of the Little Green Dragon Breeding Facility. This snake is related to some individuals there.

As he spoke, he opened another document and handed it over, We also found out that a smuggling gang was taken down near Mount Yue five years ago, and that this smuggling gang once stole a snake egg from the Little Green Dragon Breeding Facility.

One?

Yes, only one snake egg was lost from the breeding facility. According to the records at that time, the snake egg rolled off the car during the pursuit, and no one knew where it went. Now it seems that this little green dragon very likely hatched from that snake egg.

Yuan Qie frowned slightly as he looked at the investigation report in his hand. Due to the short time, only a part of the information was recorded.

So, this snake probably hatched naturally in the wild and lived in the Mount Yue Reserve for five years?

The information collected so far seems to indicate that. Nowadays, the artificial hatching rate of little green dragons is relatively high, and the survival rate of larvae has also been greatly improved. The population number is much higher than before. However, those are all artificially bred, and reintroduction into the wild has never been successful. Not only for little green dragons, the reintroduction plans of other major animal breeding bases are also progressing slowly, and some of them even show a tendency to deteriorate.

The ecological chain is distorted. Even if the climate has returned to normal, it will be quite difficult for many animals to adapt. However, the little green dragon found today that has survived in the wild for five years may have multiple favorable mutations in its genes. This kind of evolution may make it better able to adapt to the wild environment. The specific conclusions will have to wait for follow-up research, as time is too short, and many tests have not yet produced results.

Yuan Qie asked again, What about this person, Feng Yi?

Ive already questioned him, and he said that it was the first time he caught a snake. The accuracy of catching it all depended on talent. Heh, do you believe that?

I do. Yuan Qie flipped through the report on Feng Yi in his hand. Some people do have that kind of talent.

The person in charge was taken aback, surprised to hear such words from Yuan Qie.

Wheres Feng Yi? I want to ask him a few things, Yuan Qie said.

Hes eating dinner.

Feng Yi and his two friends cooperated with the work of the various departments in Mount Yue, and they had already said all they could say. They thought they would be able to leave soon, but they were told that the people from the PB would come over and ask them a few more questions. Only then would they be allowed to leave.

Well, there was nothing to be afraid of anyway. They would just repeat what they had already said.

After dinner, Feng Yi met the interrogator. The badge on the other partys chest revealed his identity.

Im Yuan Qie from the Protection Bureau. Im now in charge of investigating the Mount Yue Little Green Dragon incident. Yuan Qie sat down across from Feng Yi.

Hello. This was the first time Feng Yi had talked to someone from the PB up close.

Feng Yi originally thought that the other party would ask him how he was able to catch the snake so accurately, but unexpectedly, Yuan Qie did not mention this, but instead told him about the origin of the snake.

Its really not easy to hatch and survive in the wild. Its just that five years have passed, and the internal parasitic disease is quite serious. If it were a month later, it might be impossible to save it. Yuan Qies tone was flat, and no emotional fluctuations could be heard.

After hearing this, Feng Yi felt that the snakes luck was miraculous, it was certainly a tough one!

Yuan Qie continued and asked, From the nature reserve to the area of human activities, why do you think it went there? Was it hunting prey and accidentally wandered in?

To save itself, I guess, Feng Yi said. This had also been his first thought upon hearing of this matter.

That makes sense. Yuan Qie nodded.

Feng Yi saw that he accepted the explanation and hurriedly said, Im talking nonsense, dont take it seriously!

Yuan Qie looked at him. What you said must have been the first thought that went through your mind.

Yes.

Its still very valuable for reference. I will record it truthfully. Yuan Qie wrote down Feng Yis words with a blank expression, then got up and left.

Feng Yi was stunned. That was it? Nothing else? What happened to the PB that showed no respect to anyone and only cared about evidence and data?!!

Seeing that the other party was about to walk out the door, Feng Yi raised his voice and said, I was really talking nonsense, dont be so hasty!

With his back to Feng Yi, the corners of Yuan Qies mouth rose slightly and quickly fell back.

After Yuan Qie left, Feng Yi and the others were told that they could leave, and a car was sent to take them back to the farmhouse. Because Feng Yi had covered himself up tightly when he was photographed during the day, and because Wu Ji and Qian Feiyang did not have much of a presence behind them, they did not attract the attention of other tourists when they returned to the farmhouse.

It had been an exciting day. When they returned to the farmhouse that night, Wu Ji was taken away by his parents for questioning, and Qian Feiyang went back to the guest room to rest.

Feng Yi called the old butler and told him what had happened today, and also mentioned the matter of Yuan Qie from the PB.

Upon hearing Yuan Qies name, the butler said, Oh, Little Yuan from the Protection Bureau. I havent seen him for a long time. Its been almost ten years.

Little Little Yuan? Do you two know each other?

Not really, said the old butler. More than ten years ago, Madam Feng helped the Protection Bureau investigate a case of poaching and eating wild protected animals. At that time, Little Yuan should have joined them. He wasnt calm enough and was put in his place by Madam Feng on more than one occasion.

At that time, Yuan Qie had come across a big case right after joining the PB and was very fired up. Yuan Qie had always been skeptical of Old Lady Feng, who relied on guesses for everything, but was exceptionally skilled at catching snakes. After being humiliated many times later, Yuan Qie had to admit that this Old Lady Feng was very accurate in her guesses every time! Her guesses were more accurate than the conclusions they came to after several days of analysis!

Later, Yuan Qie accepted the reality that some people have the talent. Not only was catching snakes as easy as eating for them, but their intuition was also unimaginably accurate!

Feng Yi took a deep breath. So, he wants to regain the respect he lost due to the humiliation he suffered back then from me?

The butler chuckled and said comfortingly, Oh, its nothing. Dont worry, he was just joking with you. They are very busy people, almost like robots all day trying to save everything and being the guardians of the Earth. They dont have time to bother with you.

Your body is in the process of changing and will emit a scent. The little green dragon might have picked up that scent and approached you this time. Compared to other people, it would be more friendly to you. It can be considered a decision to try to save itself.

It really came on its own? To save itself? Feng Yi asked.

The butler said, That is most likely the case, but all of this is not important. The most important thing is that in the next two days, you might undergo changes.

Feng Yi was surprised. Thats fast! The adaptation period is over before the weekend? Im going to start changing?

The butlers tone was serious, and his voice was slightly low, Evolution; every step forward gives you additional skills to survive than others. The process of evolution will be accompanied by pain. During this process, no one can help you, and I cant intervene. Its all up to you. Mentally prepare yourself.
