Chapter 574: Finally Got a Clue
readx;?“ I'll sort it out......" Cang Hao said thoughtfully: "Clematode is a very common parasite, but it usually lives in insects, and it is very rare for humans to be infected with nematodes. Biquge www.biquge.info.?r?a?n?? E?n?'I've never heard of a wire worm driving humans to commit suicide by throwing themselves into water, right?'
The parasite expert and the animal expert nodded together: "That's right!"
"Then here's the problem......" Cang Hao spread his hands: "Now the people who tried to commit suicide by throwing water have found wire worms in their bodies, and the reason why these people committed suicide by throwing water cannot be found at present, that is, there are suspected wire worms." ”
Parasite experts agree: "I also think it has something to do with nematodes. ”
"Animal experts have just said that this kind of nematode is larger than usual, indicating that it may be a completely new organism, which is modified on the basis of existing nematodes through bioengineering technology. After a pause, Cang Hao said meaningfully: "The next question is, how do the nematodes drive insects to commit suicide, and perhaps this is also the reason why humans are driven to commit suicide!"
The animal expert laughed twice: "I'm very sorry...... As I said, there is still a paucity of research on this animal, and in fact no one knows how the nematodes kill themselves by throwing themselves into the water!"
Cang Hao questioned: "You think this is a very interesting animal, why don't you study it if it's so interesting?"
"I don't mean 'funny' by negative, just that this animal is very strange, but there are so many strange creatures in this world, and the nematode may not be a big part of it. Shaking his head, the animal expert said helplessly: "Non-professionals always think that professionals should study this and that, but in fact, there are too many things that should be studied, but professionals' time, energy and resources are very limited." For example, there are 15,000 known species of nematodes in the phylum I just mentioned to you, and some scientists speculate that the actual species are more than 500,000, which means that there are 485,000 species waiting to be discovered. It would take a huge amount of investment to study all of the 15,000 species that have been discovered, and the phylum Nematode is only one of the existing phyla. Is it possible that as long as you study nematode animals, other creatures can not be studied, do you know how many biological experts in this world add up?"
Parasitologists agree with this statement: "Actually, nematodes are very common, but many of the more common organisms are not well studied. ”
"I understand what you mean. Cang Hao nodded thoughtfully: "Because the nematodes are very common, from the very beginning, no one thought that this disaster was related to the nematodes. Because of the lack of research, it is impossible to figure out how nematodes make people suicidal...... But I think at least for the time being, there is one thing we can do, that is, since it has been found to be related to the nematode, how to kill the nematode in the water source as soon as possible, and how to treat the patient. ”
Animal experts told Cang Hao: "It is very simple to kill the nematodes in the water source, many pesticides can be lethal, and some of the agents are also very environmentally friendly and will not cause much damage to the environment." It is only necessary to put a certain dose of medicine into the water source to ensure that it can be completely killed, as for the specific plan, we need to go back to study it, and we also need to communicate with the relevant water conservancy departments. ”
Liao Jiajun decisively told the animal expert: "What you said is not a problem, I will immediately ask the officials of the water conservancy department to go to Jinghua University to work with you, no matter what materials, manpower or other resources you need, just tell me, I will definitely find a way." After a pause, Liao Jiajun asked the parasite expert again: "It depends on you to treat the patient!"
The parasitist immediately replied: "Although I have never seen this disease before, since it is a kind of parasite, it should be possible to use broad-spectrum anthelmintic drugs." ”
The attending physician interjected: "Because of such diseases in the past, ordinary broad-spectrum anthelmintic drugs may not be effective, so I recommend that you try it on one of the patients first, and then use it for other patients if it is effective." ”
The parasite expert nodded in agreement: "That's a good idea." ”
"Then let's take action immediately!" Liao Jiajun exhaled: "Now that we have figured out what is going on, it will be much easier to analyze the matter!"
All the experts and scholars went to work on their own work, and after Liao Jiajun sent them away, he turned around and said to Cang Hao: "I want to wash the Water Conservancy Bureau in blood!"
"How do you say such a thing?" Cang Hao was startled: "You are a policeman, have you changed careers to be a ****?"
"Don't you think those people from the Water Conservancy Bureau should be killed?" Liao Jiajun sneered: "I asked them to test the water quality again and again, but they told me again and again that there was no problem with the water quality, which was obviously caused by iron worms, why couldn't they test it?"
"Don't say it, I've been thinking about it just now......" Cang Hao frowned slightly, and smiled meaningfully: "If you think about it carefully, whether it is the Water Conservancy Bureau or the Water Supply Corporation, the statement on the test report is 'in line with national standards', which does not mean that there is no problem with the water quality at all." ”
Liao Jiajun understood what Cang Hao meant: "That means they actually detected a nematode?"
"I'm a complete layman in this kind of technical work, but I guess that the so-called national standards do not require that the water is completely pure and free of impurities or pollutants. In fact, the national standard only requires that all kinds of magazines or pollutants be controlled within a reasonable range so that they do not pose a hazard to the human body......" After a pause, Cang Hao continued to analyze: "They monitored the nematodes, but the number did not exceed the standard, so they didn't take it to heart." ”
"This also shows that they deserve to die!" Liao Jiajun was furious: "What is there in the water, they should explain it all to me clearly!"
"They really made it clear...... Cang Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Don't forget, they brought all the test reports, but we can't understand them at all." If they were asked to say everything in the water in words, they wouldn't be able to explain it clearly......"
"How do you help them talk?"
"I'm not talking for them, on the contrary, I don't have a good impression of the director of the water bureau and the general manager of the water company, but what we need to do now is to solve the problem, not to hold them accountable. Speaking of this, Cang Hao lowered his voice: "Also, don't forget, you are the chief of the police department, these two departments are not under your management in the first place, and it is not your turn to hold them accountable." ”
"Are you just letting them go?"
"Of course not. Cang Hao smiled coldly: "But leave this matter to Lu Siyan." ”
"I see what you mean. Liao Jiajun nodded: "Canghao, it's a pity that you don't mix with officialdom, your IQ and EQ must be like a fish in water in officialdom." ”
"Thanks for the compliment. Cang Hao shrugged his shoulders: "But I'm really not interested in career." ”
"Anyway, why don't you feel anxious?" Liao Jiajun looked at Cang Hao's expression quite strangely: "Half of Cuifeng Village is surrounded by Cuifeng Wetland, and the daily water source of your Cuifeng Village comes from Cuifeng Wetland, and now it is clear that Cuifeng Wetland is polluted by iron worms." Since there are so many suicides in the city now, aren't you worried about Cuifeng Village?"
Cang Hao smiled: "Don't worry." ”
Liao Jiajun was even more confused: "Why?"
"Don't forget, I'm a soldier, and as a qualified soldier, you have to understand how important logistics are to modern warfare. In all the logistics rooms, in addition to weapons and equipment, the most important thing is water. After a pause, Cang Hao told Liao Jiajun: "I just occupied Cuifeng Village and found that the water source came from the Cuifeng Wetland, so I made a lot of efforts to ensure the safety of drinking water. Cuifeng Village uses the world's most advanced water purification equipment, which has undergone multiple filtration, disinfection and sterilization, not to mention parasite eggs, and even viruses and bacteria do not want to survive. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as a certain proportion of sodium chloride is mixed with the drinking water of Cuifeng Village, it can be directly made into normal saline and injected into the human body. ”
"I see. Liao Jiajun suddenly realized: "No wonder you are always so light-hearted." ”
"So, even if there is a problem with the water quality, Cuifeng Village will not be affected, not to mention that we have prepared a large amount of bottled drinking water. ”
"Anyway, the cost of filtering water to this level is quite high, right?"
"This kind of filtration is divided into several steps, and after the initial filtration is completed, it will be divided into two pipes, one pipe is the water used in daily life, such as toilets, baths, etc. The other pipe is the drinking water, which is further filtered, and in general the cost is high but acceptable. Speaking of this, Cang Hao shook his head helplessly: "Of course, there are few Blood Lion mercenaries, if a huge city like Guangsha adopts this kind of water supply system, the cost will be quite amazing." ”
Liao Jiajun nodded: "Understood." ”
"But you reminded me that I need to go back and take a look now. Cang Hao looked at the time and told Liao Jiajun: "Keep in touch." ”
After Cang Hao left the hospital, he returned to Cuifeng Village and told everyone about all the discoveries, but everyone was stunned.
"Wireworm ......" Ning Cheng's brows were pimpled: "Although I am a layman in biology, I have the impression that this thing seems to be very common, who would have thought that such a common creature would be transformed into a biological weapon." ”
Emperor Yu followed and said: "No wonder, when the forensic doctor dissected, he did not find any abnormalities in the body of the deceased. Because all people who commit suicide by drowning, after the body enters the water, the nematode will leave the body, and the forensic doctor will not find anything. ”
"That's right. Cang Hao said worriedly: "Only in these suicide attempted people can we find ** parasites, and fortunately, the police rescued so many people, and finally found the truth of the matter." ”
