There is a long pause on the commlink, before an answer is provided, "We would prefer to keep the head for dissection, but if you wish it, it can be provided afterward. The approximate timeline for the completion of live testing as well as postmortem analysis is 1 month. You do not have clearance to come to the lab in person, but you are correct that your data will be helpful. Please provide it now or a drone can be sent to a location of your choosing to receive your report at a later time.
"I assure you that every security protocol required for dealing with magical creatures will be in place. We have processed creatures of designations vampire, demon, and ghost in the past without incident and the calculated chance of incident with creature designation jiangshi is well within safety parameters. Provided that the warding and weaponry you have provided are effective, the predicted chance of escape is only 0.05%. To provide a frame of reference for a layperson, the predicted chance of escape for the most powerful creature we have processed was of designation demon which had a predicted chance of escape of 1.7%. It was safely disposed of after research was concluded. There is no need for concern."
