Chapter 82: Voice
"What's the message?" Mo Yu was curious.
The three exchanged glances with each other, Jiang Zi covered his eyes, collapsed on the sofa, and sighed: "I don't want to go down anymore." β
With that, he got up from the couch, "Let's go, I can't tell, I'll see if I go down and see for myself." β
Jiang Zi Liang Jing and Wan Kai got up together, pushed open the door of the hall, and motioned for Mo Yu to follow, the latter hugged Ya Xiang beside him and pulled her downstairs together, and they re-entered the P3 laboratory on the first floor, since Lou Qi disappeared inexplicably, this laboratory has been sealed, Jiang Zi does not allow anyone to enter without permission - the laboratory is still the same as when it was sealed a few days ago, the black ball is placed in a transparent glove box, and there is a circle of mechanical arms around it.
Mo Yu changed into protective clothing outside the door, followed Jiang Zi into the laboratory, turned on the lights, and the laboratory immediately lit up, except that the black ball in the box almost did not reflect any light, and did not have a three-dimensional effect, as if it was a hole cut by someone with scissors.
It wasn't the first time Silent had seen the ball, and it did have some extraordinary quality that made it very different from all the human creations around it, presumably due to the instinctive alertness and rejection of foreign objects by humans as terrestrial creatures, and anyone could notice it from the first moment they entered the laboratory. Mo Yu is not a physics major, and she can't empathize with the madness that old Hu Louqi and others have felt, but she can understand that for a physicist, this black ball is the devil and the snake that tempted Adam and Eve, cold and terrifying and irresistible.
"Stay away from it." Jiang Zi took Mo Yu away from the glove box, and several people stood a few steps away.
Liang Jing turned on the computer in the laboratory, and after Dabai turned it off, the P3 laboratory was already out of the Cassini station's control system, and everything needed to be controlled manually.
"There are two kinds of information we receive." The monitor in front of Liang Jing lit up, "Electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves." β
Mo Yu came over with Ya Xiang and opened his eyes wide, "Electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves? β
Liang Jing nodded.
"We stumbled upon this about two hours ago...... Although Dabai was shut down, the monitoring system was still working, recording all the data. Liang Jing pointed to the mechanical arm that surrounded the black ball, "The photoreceptor detected that the black ball was releasing X-rays and Ξ³ rays, and to be honest, it scared us a lot." β
According to the records of the monitoring system, the black ball released energy two hours ago, first of all, the monitoring system captured high-energy electrons, which scattered outward with the black ball as the center, for a very short time, followed by infrared and ultraviolet rays, and the frequency has been changing, and finally rising to X-rays and even Ξ³ rays, but this change is irregular, the frequency is high and low, and the radiation time is interrupted.
This phenomenon lasted less than half an hour, and the black ball fell silent again after emitting the last photon to the outside world, and fell silent again.
Mo Yu stared at the screen for a long time, then turned his head and asked Liang Jing, "What does this mean?" Is this black ball radioactive? β
"Nope." Liang Jing shook his head, "There is no radioactive substance in this world, which can change its own characteristics at will, shoot whatever you want, shoot whenever you want, and shoot as long as you want." β
"What really caught our attention was the energy it was radiating." Jiang Zi continued, "We calculated the total energy it emitted, and found that it coincided with what we poured into it, and the error was no more than 1/10,000, if you think about the electrons it emitted, infrared ultraviolet rays, X-rays and Ξ³ rays, all of which we shot into it in the first place, whether it is time or frequency, even the order is exactly the same." β
Mo Yu nodded, she remembered that she had also operated the X-ray gun, and swept at the black ball, and this result was also reflected in the detection results, which was a rapid, violent and rapidly changing peak.
"So, the black ball got all the energy back?" Mo Yu asked, "What we throw in, it will give us back?" β
The Black Ball is like a faithful recorder of everything that humanity throws at it, and it throws it back as it is.
"That's what we thought at first." Liang Jing said, "We don't think that this black ball has broken the law of conservation of energy and the immortality of information, it just has some kind of mechanism that can temporarily store the information we send in, and after a period of time it will return the information to the universe...... But as I told you, the information it throws out is not only electromagnetic waves, but also mechanical waves. β
Liang Jing's tone suddenly became heavy, and Jiang Zi and Wan Kai beside him also looked quite uneasy.
"What kind of mechanical waves?" Asked silently.
"The vibration, the vibration of the black ball itself, is very weak, but we recorded it." Liang Jing clicked on the monitor, and there was a dense traveling wave on the oscilloscope, "After analysis, we learned that it is actually a vibration caused by sound waves, the same as the previous electromagnetic waves, this black ball may absorb the sound waves and return them in a vibrational way, and we restore the vibration." β
"It absorbs our voices, too?"
"Listen to it yourself." Liang Jing turned on the speaker, took a step back, and added after a few seconds, "But we think ...... I'm afraid that's not our voice. β
The laboratory was quiet, several men stared at the computer speakers, their expressions were very solemn, they looked left and right silently, and also cast their eyes on the speakers, everyone stood in the laboratory and waited, followed by a long silence.
"Is the speaker ......not turned on?"
Jiang Zi raised his hand to signal quiet.
A few seconds later, the speaker went off.
"Poof!"
Mo Yu was taken aback, what came out of the speaker was the sound of a heartbeat, some kind of dull and powerful heartbeat, like a drum and thunder, Ya Xiang was frightened, she leaned towards Mo Yu, grabbed the latter's arm tightly, Mo Yu pressed the girl's shoulder to comfort her, and at the same time turned her head in surprise, looking at Liang Jing and Jiang Zi beside her, the two men pursed their lips, their expressions were hard, staring at the speaker, like a big enemy.
"Heartbeat - and hands...... Finger ......"
After the sound of the heartbeat, a woman's faint voice came from the speaker.
Silent ...... Sister Moyu. Ya Xiang was frightened, and grabbed Mo Yu's clothes hard, this voice was too distinctive, the words were very clear, with a slightly hoarse voice and a slightly heavy nasal voice, everyone was too familiar, including Mo Yu herselfβshe was dumbfounded, and her face turned pale, because it was her own voice.
The voice sounded extremely frightened and panicked, and she wanted to cry, she babbled her heartbeat and fingers over and over again, not knowing whether she was crying or crying for help, and looked at the speaker blankly, what was going on? Why does the black ball have its own voice? When did you say these words? What does this heartbeat and fingers mean?
The low voice of the crying became smaller and smaller, slowly subsided, and the silence was over, this short two minutes was probably the most difficult time in her life, I don't know when Mo Yu was already covered with cold sweat, she wanted to take a deep breath to calm down, but the next moment there was a sharp and piercing loud sound in the speaker, and the woman convulsed and laughed.
"Hee-heehe
