Chapter 509: The Dusty Secret (Part II)

The content of the investigation report is a research institute called 955, a series of accidents occurred in June 92, this series of accidents caused the death of 47 researchers and related staff, and in addition to some deaths from the later fire, most of them were unexplained sudden deaths, and the internal organs had been extensively necrotic before death, but the root cause could not be found after the autopsy.

Some of the details mentioned in this investigation report can be seen that this 955 Institute is the official research institute for "mutant organisms".

Moreover, before this series of serious incidents, the 955 Institute had just captured a living "blood-eating creature", conducted research for more than two months, and had reported major discoveries to the higher authorities.

In the aftermath of the accident, not only did the living research sample disappear, but all the people who participated in the study and knew the inside story died, and most of the relevant materials were destroyed by fire.

In the beginning, the direction of the accident investigation was all on "enemy sabotage".

But as the investigation progressed, they discovered more and more bizarre and unexplained circumstances.

Xiang Kun looked solemn, it turned out that the official used to have a special agency to investigate and study "mutant creatures", that is, "blood-eating creatures" as they defined.

It's just that the name "955" has never been heard of by him before, and it has never even appeared in various legends, wild histories, and gossip chatter.

Generally speaking, most of the official relevant confidential research institutions are not named after 5 and 7, such as the "704" Ship Equipment Research Institute of the CSIC Ship Research Institute, and the "503" Satellite Information Engineering Research Institute of the Aerospace Science and Technology Group.

Among the various works that discuss special functions, mysterious fields, and science fiction, 507 institutes and 749 bureaus are often mentioned.

If he hadn't seen it here, if he had changed to another scene, he would have thought it was something made up by the YY author without any basis.

But the unexpected death of dozens of researchers, such a big event, why has it never been heard of before?

Xiang Kun continued to look at more related documents, especially those that belonged to the same category as the investigation documents.

Soon, he saw the follow-up situation, the investigation of a series of accidents in the "955" Institute, through various strange phenomena, and the accident that occurred in some scientific research institutions in the 60s earlier.

And just when the people of the investigation team were about to conduct further in-depth investigation, the superior leaders took the investigation team to contact an expert from the former Soviet Union, who told them that as early as a few years ago, several departments of the former Soviet Union, including the "bioinformatics laboratory", had already encountered similar accidents when conducting research on "blood-eating organisms" -- all relevant researchers died suddenly for unknown reasons, and most of the relevant research materials were destroyed for various reasons, due to "blood-eating organisms" No living samples were left and no sample tissue remained.

Not only the former Soviet Union, but also the United States during the same period, several research programs led by DARPA for "blood-eating organisms" have no results or only very few discoveries, as long as the samples of living "blood-eating organisms" are obtained, and there are relatively in-depth studies and certain research results, then unexplained "annihilation" will soon occur.

The results of research and observation of "blood-eating organisms" have not been completely destroyed, but those who have investigated accidents and "blood-eating organisms" have had accidents every time they find something based on the sporadic information.

After a period of time, any "blood-eating organism" discovered by relevant agencies will immediately collapse and decompose into gray powder almost at the same time as it is discovered, and some investigators and witnesses who found it will also die immediately.

In addition, something similar happened in the former Soviet Union, various investigations and studies in the United States began to be suspended, relevant archives were sealed, and there was no declassification period.

The investigation report was obviously not finished, but it is not known whether the follow-up investigation was also stopped, or the relevant information was lost, Xiang Kun did not find the follow-up content in the later documents.

But then he found more documents that could answer his doubts, detailing the different attitudes and development processes of foreign and domestic research on "blood-eating organisms".

In the document made by the researcher named Shen Haichong, it was clarified that a series of strange accidents related to "blood-eating organisms" in various countries in the late 80s and early 90s, after losing a large number of researchers, the consistent decision was to suspend research and seal the data - there is no way to continue, whether it is a researcher or an investigator, any relevant person, almost all of them will die suddenly for unknown reasons, or do some unbelievable things, once the scope of influence expands, it will inevitably cause widespread turmoil and panic.

However, various countries are unwilling to completely abandon the characteristics of "blood-eating organisms", and are still conducting "exploratory research".

Of course, during this period, various folk perceptions based on conspiracy theories, occultism, and religious legends began to rise.

Shen Haichong believes that there seems to be a force that is "monitoring" the human world's research on the fundamental causes of the mutation of "blood-eating organisms", and once humans are likely to spy on something, it will trigger its "defense mechanism" and strangle all possibilities.

"Blood-eating creatures" may have appeared very early, but traces of their existence may have been "obliterated" in a similar way throughout history, or passed down in a way that has deviated from the truth.

In the late 80s and early 90s, the wave of research on "blood-eating organisms" was not completely fruitless, at least the powder after the death of "blood-eating organisms" was analyzed to find out the specific composition.

Different types of "blood-eating organisms" have slightly different composition of gray powder after death, taking human "blood-eating organisms" as an example, the gray powder after death is mainly a special carbon nitride compound.

Through the study of the composition and crystal structure of this carbon nitride compound, mankind has made great progress in materials science, such as the synthesis and application of materials such as β-C3N4 and g-C3N4.

Because of the great temptation that can be foreseen, even if they know that they may trigger a terrifying calamity, human beings are still cautiously testing the hidden power of "blood-eating creatures".

Shen Haichong synthesized the analysis of many other national institutions and relevant personnel, and made his own judgment summary:

When human beings conduct research on "blood-eating organisms", the more people participate and the more people know, and the more in-depth the research on "blood-eating organisms", the easier it is to trigger the "defense mechanism" of the mysterious power;

When there is national participation, it is easier to trigger the "preparedness mechanism";

In the late 80s and early 90s, the wave of large-scale "extermination" was a highly triggered state of the "defense mechanism", if only one country, one institution, and a small group of people were conducting research on "blood-eating organisms", perhaps that force would not be so "sensitive";

If the researcher himself is a "blood-eating organism", the "defense mechanism" will be more tolerant.

This judgment was not only made by Shen Haichong, but also basically the consensus of most people in the world who know the existence of "blood-eating creatures" and are still interested in conducting research.

Therefore, after the 21st century, the research on "blood-eating organisms" in various countries invariably adheres to several principles:

1. The government should not be directly involved as much as possible, and private research institutions should be the main body;

2. Try to use human "blood-eating organisms" as a research team;

3. Block the news of "blood-eating creatures" and keep them from the public;

The document of this researcher named Shen Haichong, using systematic and simple words, introduces the research process and various reasons for various decisions of "blood-eating organisms" in China and the world, which is obviously an explanatory document for "latecomers".

At the end of that document, he left a sentence:

"The study of blood-eating creatures is a Pandora's box, although it is full of dangers when opened, its temptation is impossible for human beings to refuse. ”

Xiang Kun continued to check the documents he received, and there were still a large number of documents signed "Shen Haichong".

Among them, there are simple records and descriptions of the characteristics of specific "blood-eating organisms" found in the wild, as well as observation and experimental records of living "blood-eating organisms", and there is a record of "human blood-eating organisms" that is very detailed, with a large number of pictures and specific data, and the time span of observation and experiment is extremely long.

Then Xiang Kun noticed the label of the "blood-eating creature": Shen Haichong.

It turns out that this researcher is a "mutant creature" himself, so it's no wonder that after what happened to the 955 Institute, he can still be in charge of related research.

Xiang Kun soon found information on a research institute established by Shen Haichong, which was headed by Shen Haichong and only cultivated human "blood-eating organisms" as researchers, who were both researchers and researchers.

This research institute is also funded by the state, but all the research progress, research methods, and research results are under Shen Haichong's own control.

However, judging from the timeline in Shen Haichong's other documents, by the third year of his establishment of that institution, he was still conducting various experiments alone.

Among the various documents, Xiang Kun saw several documents named "Academician Shen's Manuscript Collation", so he asked Alice to search and found that there was indeed an academician named Shen Haichong, but judging from public information, he had died of illness at the end of the 90s at the age of 68.

And on the photos I had seen before and recorded my own research, Shen Haichong's appearance and body looked like a sturdy guy in his 20s, but his hair was gray.

It turned out that he was already an academician before the mutation, no wonder the official believed in him and was willing to let him take full charge of relevant research.

Xiang Kun then saw a research document signed by Shen Haichong, and the direction of his research was the "monitoring mechanism" of the mysterious forces behind the "blood-eating creatures" on humans or other creatures.

Before Xiang Kun started to look at it, he thought of something, so he quickly picked up his mobile phone and called Lao Xia.

"Are you looking at those documents?" asked Xiang Kun as soon as he got through.

"In. Xia Libing replied.

"Don't look at it yet. Xiang Kun said.

"Good. Xia Libing's answer was still decisive, without any questions or hesitation.

After hanging up the phone, Xiang Kun continued to look at the document with a serious expression.

Academician Shen introduced the background of his writing of this document at the beginning, and it was he who spent a lot of money to find out a news:

A private research institute in the United States has adopted a method, a human "blood-eating organism" researcher, to observe and record relevant experimental data on a living sample of a plant "blood-eating organism", and then leave the laboratory and go to a building dozens of kilometers away, through the Internet, with experts in different fields in Europe and the United States to study the refined data and observations, the experts do not know the actual situation of this "blood-eating organism", and even do not know the concept of "blood-eating organism".

But the end result was that all the experts involved suffered an accident and died suddenly and unexplained, and two assistants of one of the experts also died. The "blood-eating creature" of the plant that was tested and the human "blood-eating creature" that recorded the experiment disintegrated and dissipated together, and a fire even broke out in the laboratory.

And the owner of that research institute, nothing happened.

He made this proposal, instructed the human "blood-eating creatures" researchers, and paid for the experts to connect them, but he was not actually involved in the whole process, and he was completely unaware of the process and data.

From this case, Academician Shen judged that the "monitoring method" of the "mysterious force" is not a simple feedback of physical mechanisms, such as how many humans pay attention to a certain "blood-eating creature", or how many humans exist around a certain "blood-eating creature", etc.

The "mystical power" should have the ability to perceive human language, knowledge systems, and expressions, and its "monitoring" point is not limited to "blood-eating creatures".

Academician Shen also cited a large number of biological sensory studies to verify several of his speculations, including whether the "mysterious force" behind it is an "unconscious, pure energy reaction mechanism" or a "conscious, purposeful actor".

Because from the perspective of its defense mechanism, the "execution" of humans who conduct in-depth research on "blood-eating organisms", and the "erasure" law of "blood-eating organisms" discovered by humans, it does not have a very unified standard and trigger mechanism.

In the early 90s, when all countries secretly invested a lot of resources and manpower in the study of "blood-eating organisms", it was obviously more "sensitive", and at a certain time, as soon as it was discovered by human groups, even if it was not captured, "blood-eating organisms" would immediately disintegrate and dissipate.

It is also likely to be capable of killing most "blood-eating creatures".

As for the fact that it does not allow humans to conduct research on "blood-eating organisms" and contact the principles behind them, Academician Shen believes that this may be because it believes that this will pose a fatal threat to it.

If this hypothesis is true, it is highly likely that humanity will become its "nemesis", and that it has great power, but it has not slaughtered or exterminated humans, which means that it either proves that its use of power is extremely limited and cannot do as it pleases, or that it is also dependent on the human community, or even a member of it itself?

Xiang Kun kept looking at Academician Shen's research documents, perhaps because he was a lonely researcher, he didn't have to sleep, had no family, no other entertainment, and had plenty of time for thinking and research, so he wrote a lot of documents.

From the research and investigation of specific "blood-eating organisms", to the conjecture of the existence form of the "mysterious force", from whether the "mysterious force" represents an individual or an ethnic group, to the possibility of some theoretical breakthroughs and research directions brought about by the observed mutation data.

In fact, many documents are more like a kind of diary of self-talk, with a lot of speculation and reasoning process, as more information is obtained, the later documents will often overturn the conclusions drawn in the previous documents, but basically it can be seen that Academician Shen's consistent research method and his process of establishing a theoretical framework.

Xiang Kun also somewhat understood why Academician Shen wrote so meticulously and complicatedly, he may be preparing for no one to take over, only these documents and data will be retained.

Xiang Kun looked at it while comparing it with his own situation, thinking about the same questions as Academician Shen, and answering the doubts that Academician Shen could not answer.

The more he looked at the documentation, the more sure he was:

His mutation, even among the "mutated creatures", is a very special existence.

In other words, from a certain stage after the mutation, he has jumped out of the rolling river where the fish are located and jumped to the shore, and has grown two legs, and began to follow a completely different evolutionary route from the vast majority of "mutant creatures".
