Chapter 254: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
In this high-secret facility of the Indian military, the number of people is limited to 50 people, including the chef and other logistics personnel, of course, Sami means that there are several peripheral security bases around, and the total number is a reinforced company, as for whether he said this with the intention of threatening Hou Wan and others, it is not known.
In short, except for the 6 dead guards, the remaining 44 people were re-scanned and still found no problems.
After the scan, Hou Wan put forward his own idea: "X-rey scanning will not achieve the goal. ”
The X-rey that Hou Wan called is also commonly known as the X-ray machine.
Sammy wondered, "So what do you mean?" ”
Hou Wan pointed to his head and said, "The wood plague infection occupies this part, so I think the most reliable one should be to use an MRI machine." ”
Sammy didn't quite understand, just shook his head slightly.
Hou Wandao: "Let me put it this way, human beings or anything that exists is composed of atoms, and as for the size of the atoms, it is not visible to the naked eye, and I believe that wood plague is no exception." At the same time, any object will resonate through a certain frequency of force, I take the tuning fork as an example, when the sound changes from large to small after striking the tuning fork, a point will be generated, obviously the sound is smaller but the vibration of the tuning fork is stronger than before, this is the resonance phenomenon, and the resonance frequency of different atoms is also different. ”
Everyone listened carefully, and Sammy frowned even more, not understanding what Hou Wan meant.
Hou Wan said: "Therefore, nuclear magnetic resonance is the process of using the force generated by the magnetic field to resonate the atoms that are invisible to the naked eye, and then through the signals generated by the vibration of these atoms, they are received by special devices and then formed into a map. ”
Sammy shook her head: "I didn't understand that. ”
Hou Wan looked at Sammy and said, "Let's put it this way, it's like you use radar to search for a sparrow." ”
After Sammy nodded, Hou Wan continued: "To sum up, why is MRI used in the brain? Because the brain has the most hydrogen atoms, these atoms are captured according to the different phenomena that occur when you are thinking, and then you can draw conclusions about whether the head is abnormal or not based on the signal obtained and the normal signal. ”
Wei Chiran finally understood: "You mean, it is still possible that the wood plague is hidden in the brain of one of us, but it cannot be detected by X-ray, and it needs to be detected by nuclear magnetic resonance?" ”
Hou Wandao: "Yes, that's what it means. ”
Faced with Houwan's proposal, Sami had to immediately go to the nearest hospital to get an MRI machine.
However, it is not easy to carry and install the MRI machine, not to mention that the place where the MRI machine is used also needs to meet strict conditions, such as the place where the MRI machine is placed away from large metal objects, not next to elevators, cars, etc., and other things that will produce vibration will also affect it, and must also be kept away, and there are also requirements on the power supply.
In short, the complexity was far beyond Sammy's imagination, and it took at least eight hours from the moment of delivery to the installation, as well as the selection of the site.
Now in this measure, let alone eight hours, even eight minutes is torturous for them, because no one knows what will happen in the next second.
For safety reasons, Sammy sealed off the facility and did not allow anyone to leave, and even the MRI machine had to be loaded by helicopter and transported to the back garden, but the device had to be installed by a special person, so six more people had to be brought in from outside.
The original Indian people in this facility, plus Sami now have 44 left, including Captain Chi Ran, Saker, Yin Wanmeng, Chu Xia, Hou Wan, Bao Junhao 6 people, and the 6 people who are about to come in, a total of 56 people.
Sammy looked at Wei Chiran and the others: "I decided to let everyone hand over their weapons first, and then put them in the arsenal, and after the instruments are installed, I will be the first to test, and if I am okay, then I will take the next person who is okay to get the weapons, and then supervise the rest of the tests." ”
Wei Chiran asked, "What if you are the host and you don't know it yourself?" ”
Sammy said: "I thought about it, that's why I collected all the weapons, in case this thing suddenly appeared and we still had weapons in our hands, we would be more passive." ”
Yin Wanmeng shook his head and said, "Wood plague must be dealt with with with with weapons and cannot be close to each other, so this is not a good idea." ”
Others agreed, and Sammy asked, "So what do you think should be done?" ”
Hou Wan asked: "Is the arsenal a combination lock?" ”
Although Sammy didn't want to tell Hou Wan, he had to admit it at this juncture.
Hou Wan asked again: "The combination lock can be adjusted to a random password through the system, right?" ”
Sammy nodded again.
Hou Wan said again: "Everyone in this facility can't be trusted now, so you can only trust the people from outside, among the 6 people sent, there must be your agents, so you should send the random password of the arsenal directly to him through the system, so that he can master it, and this person should not enter the facility first, stay in the helicopter, wait for the instrument to be installed, at least five people have been tested, then you can enter and open the arsenal, and the process of our detection is supervised by this person on the helicopter, It's the only way to go. ”
Sammy thought for a long time and nodded in agreement, after all, he would rather trust Vijay, the agent urgently transferred from the headquarters, than let the corrupt bureaucrats at the top supervise and decide their fate.
Soon after, the spruce logs arrived, of course, by helicopter, and the five logs were hoisted by helicopter and placed in the back garden.
Hou Wan immediately gathered the others and took the corpse of the previous Sen kicker and the bodies of the other guards who had been killed to the back garden, and then burned them with spruce logs.
Sammy frowned at the raging flames and smelled the smell of charred corpses: "Is that okay?" ”
Hou Wandao: "At least don't worry about these corpses going wrong." ”
Wei Chi suddenly thought: "If we take spruce logs with us, can we prevent wood plague?" ”
Hou Wan shook his head and said: "The spruce log is not kryptonite, and the wood plague is not superhuman, there is no way to deal with it like this, he must be broken, and then killed by burning the spruce log." ”
Wei Chiran recalled what Tang Anshu and the others had said before, and said: "That is to say, after burning, if there are spruce logs that have not been burned, it proves that the wood plague has been sealed, right?" ”
Hou Wan nodded, and at this time, everyone found that the previous spruce logs and corpses were burned to black, which showed that the wood plague was not among them.
Sammy asked Houwan again, "Who made this thing!?" ”
Hou Wan asked rhetorically: "Do you think that in the world today, which country has the strength to create such a monster?" ”
Sammy was asked, indeed, let alone a certain country, even if the world's top biologists joined forces, I am afraid that they would not be able to create such a monster, right?
Sammy asked again, "Could it be from an alien planet?" Abnormity? ”
Hou Wan just smiled lightly: "Maybe, because as far as I know, this thing appeared because of a meteorite." ”
"Meteorite?" Sammy continued, "When?" ”
Hou Wan turned around and walked towards the facility: "Thousands of years ago. ”
Sammy caught up with Hou Wan: "What else do you know?" ”
Hou Wandao: "I know this, and these materials are exchanged for the lives of my operators, I said, if you want to know what is going on, go and ask the people in the trenches." ”
Sammy looked at Hou Wan and made a judgment in his heart, of course Hou Wan was lying, he knew the rules of the heretical way very well, and he could say wood plague, but he couldn't bring out the sects and secrets of other heretical ways.
At this point, a soldier came to report that everyone had assembled in the cafeteria, but five of them resisted and refused to surrender their weapons.
Sammy, Wei Chiran, Hou Wan and others immediately rushed to the restaurant.
Before walking into the restaurant, Hou Wan stopped Wei Chiran and the others and signaled them not to go in, but to observe at the door.
Hou Wan said in a low voice: "Do you know why people are afraid? Because of the unknown, wood plague is unknown, so we are all afraid, even if a person knows that he is going to die, he will still be afraid, he is afraid of the unknown is not because of death, but what will happen after death, if people know very well that people will not completely disappear after death, then the fear will be greatly reduced, which is why those who desire to go to heaven are not afraid of death. ”
There were 44 people standing in the facility in the restaurant, all with doubts and fears written on their faces.
The carefully selected guards, each of whom was a strong Indian soldier, now had the same expressions on their faces as those of the support staff, and even the cooks.
If you are the most elite troops of any country in this world, in the face of a monster like wood plague, I am afraid that you will be like them.
Sammy walked over to the crowd and looked at the five who were unwilling to hand over their weapons: "You must surrender your weapons and seal them up, this is an order." ”
The leader of the five asked rhetorically, "Colonel, you are not sure whether you are infected or not, how can we be sure that the decision you made is harming us?" ”
The remark was tantamount to incitement at this point, and the suspicion and distrust of Sami from others present immediately began to climb.
The rest of the people didn't go along with it, and no one objected, they just looked at Sammy.
Sammy said: "When I close the facility, it means that the security in the base has been raised to the highest level, which means that the war has begun, and your current behavior is equivalent to mutiny, do you know what it means?" ”
The leader didn't speak, just looked at Sammy, and then stepped back, clutching the gun in his hand.
The other four followed him, but Sammy drew his pistol and said, "You are not allowed to leave here unless you hand over your weapons." ”
The five people also immediately turned against each other with guns, and at this time, the other people around them also immediately rushed up and began to snatch the guns that they had handed over earlier.
Seeing this, Yin Wan dreamed and said, "Is this colonel an idiot?" Wouldn't it be necessary to gather people in such a place and receive them directly at the door of the weapons depot? ”
Hou Wan said: "If you are at the door of the arsenal, in case of chaos, the situation will be even worse. ”
The scene was out of control, and the five rebellious people turned around and prepared to leave the restaurant, only to find Wei Chiran and others blocking the door.
Hou Wan stepped forward and said, "Several, just imagine, if those monsters get weapons, the situation will get worse." ”
The leader of the rebel soldiers said, "Get out of the way, it's none of your business." ”
