Chapter 514: Chapter 514: The Liquid is ‘Rising Tide Chapter 514: Chapter 514: The Liquid is ‘Rising Tide “Quite a few people have died already, but there are still many who recklessly take drugs without considering the consequences. Ah, for money, how can they just disregard their own lives.”
Mo Jun was surprised, “Why do they fall ill on the fifteenth night?”
“Could it really be related to the full moon night?” Lin Feng asked excitedly, as he was quite interested in this question.
Mo Jun laughed, “Uncle Lin, didn’t we say, it’s not what you’re thinking…”
“You’re right, it is related to the full moon night!” Su Zhan suddenly said.
Mo Jun and the others were taken aback, could it really be?
Lin Feng was even more excited, “Really? Are they actually werewolves, so they have to transform on the full moon night?!”
Su Zhan’s jaw seemed to hit the floor instantly.
Even Su Peiyuan chuckled, “This kid is interesting.”
Among Mo Jun and the others, Lin Feng was the oldest, already an uncle, yet Su Peiyuan had just called him a child.
He couldn’t help but blush, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Su Zhan laughed, “This uncle has quite an imagination, they are definitely not werewolves.”
“Then why does it happen on the full moon night?” Lin Feng asked curiously.
“Have you heard of tides?” Su Zhan asked them. Naturally, Mo Jun and the others nodded; they were certainly aware of tides.
“But what does that have to do with this?” Mo Jun asked, puzzled.
Seeing that the question came from a beautiful girl, Su Zhan coughed and, putting on a very scholarly air, explained:
“Simply put, tides are the effect of the Moon’s gravity on the Earth’s fluids. Whenever the Moon’s gravity is at its strongest, high tide occurs; you all know this, right?”
Except for Lin Feng, Mo Jun and the others nodded.
Su Zhan continued, “Humans are about eighty percent water, and it just so happens that the concentration of liquids in the human body and the salinity of seawater are not too different. Thus, the Moon’s gravity also has an effect on the liquids inside the human body. When the Moon’s gravity is stronger, there is a ‘high tide’ inside the body. At that time, the blood circulation quickens, and hormones are secreted more vigorously. As a result, it’s easy to act impulsively, or make unwise decisions. Coincidentally, the fifteenth night of every month is generally the time of high tide, which is why in many places, the crime rate is higher on the night of the fifteenth. Do you understand now?”
Sun Qiao nodded as if he understood but didn’t understand…
Lin Feng seemed to grasp some understanding now.
“So, on the night of the fifteenth, the residual drugs in these people’s bodies reactivate? And then cause their illnesses to flare up?” Mo Jun asked, still unsure.
Su Zhan nodded, “Exactly! On the night of the fifteenth, they fall ill due to the effect of the residual drugs. That’s why they fall ill every full moon night.”
“But shouldn’t their reaction be excessive excitement? Why do they feel worse?” Mo Jun didn’t understand this point, “And what exactly are the drugs they are taking, and why do they remain in their bodies?”
Even Su Peiyuan didn’t understand this.
He said gravely, “I’ve been studying for a long time and still don’t know what drug is left in their bodies. But based on my research, I believe this drug is not simple.
In the beginning, this drug stimulates their physical abilities in their bodies, but human physical abilities are limited.
Once the body’s physical abilities reach their limit, the body begins to decline.”
