Chapter 285: Li Na’s Temptation
The fact that the children had been poisoned by gas during the day while the adults remained unaffected had puzzled Zhu Yanyi for a long time. She had wondered what kind of poison could cause such a discrepancy. Now, after reading this document, everything became clear. So that’s how it is. She quickly copied the information, then hurriedly exited the Ruyi Space. She went straight to the door of Yan Aohan’s room next door. At this moment, he was the only person she could think of to help.
Yan Aohan had just fallen asleep when he heard the knocking. He quickly got up, turned on the light, and went to open the door. Seeing Zhu Yanyi’s rushed appearance, he asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
“Look at this,” Zhu Yanyi said, handing her a document.
Yan Aohan took the document and read it. His expression changed slightly. “Where did you find this?”
Zhu Yanyi calmed herself down and explained, “I always read various books on medical arts. I carry a few with me and flip through them often. After the incident today, I felt something was off. The children were poisoned, but the adults weren’t. At first, I thought it was targeted at the children, but then I realized it didn’t make sense. Although Red Star Kindergarten is famous, the largest kindergarten in the capital is Red Flag Kindergarten, not Red Star. If they really wanted to target children, they would have gone to Red Flag, not Red Star. I couldn’t figure out what was wrong, so I couldn’t sleep. I picked up a book to read, and that’s when I understood.”
Zhu Yanyi took out a book. “This is a rare copy. I don’t show it to anyone because it contains methods of using poison. If this book gets out, I’m worried something bad will happen. So, I copied the information you’re holding.”
Hearing her explanation, Yan Aohan saw the title of the book: Poison Classic. He immediately understood Zhu Yanyi’s concern. Just by the name, he knew it was about poison. For kind-hearted people, such a book could be a good thing, helping them prevent various poisons and keep everyone healthier. But for malicious people, it could deepen their harmful methods. If this book fell into the hands of those with evil intentions, it could cause a disaster of immense proportions.
“You must hide this book well. Don’t tell anyone you have it,” Yan Aohan warned.
Zhu Yanyi nodded. “I know.” She continued, “After checking the information, I learned that the poison from today is called ‘Butterfly Transformation.’ Initially, this poison targets a specific group, making it look like they suffered from food poisoning. After they are treated and return home, they become carriers of the poison. Of course, the poison doesn’t appear all at once. It hides in the body and ferments over time. About six months later, they will emit an invisible aura. Anyone who comes into contact with them will be infected. After hiding for another three months, it will erupt, turning them into unconscious puppets. Moreover, both the poisoned individuals and the carriers will develop a butterfly mark on their bodies when the poison takes effect. Before that, it starts as a cocoon. As the poison deepens, wings slowly grow, and finally, it transforms into a butterfly. When it becomes a butterfly, the person is beyond saving. That’s why this poison is called ‘Butterfly Transformation,’ representing the life of a butterfly—brief yet beautiful.”
Yan Aohan listened to Zhu Yanyi’s explanation while reading the document she had given him. “Is there a way to detoxify it?”
