Chapter Thirty-Nine: Death Without Illness

The tent that Ziyang and the others entered should be the headquarters, there is a lot of space inside, all kinds of instruments are placed around, and several staff members are busy nervously. There is a large table in the middle of the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info, on which is spread a satellite map of the valley, which is very accurate, and you can see every farmer in the mountain village.

Lao Wang quietly muttered to Ziyang, "A few animals have died, and making such a big formation is the same as fighting." This surnamed Jin can also pretend to be forced, and this thing can be finished on the way, so he has to take us around for a long time......"

Zi Yang pretended to sit there without squinting, but his lips squirmed slightly, "Don't say a word, what people are involved in is confidential, of course you can't tell people casually, soldiers, they must be more formal." How can you be so nagging like you. ”

Although the conversation between the two was very slight, it was still overheard by Jin Guoqiang, who turned around and glanced at them sternly.

When I came all the way, Director Jin found that these two guys and Professor Zhang were not the same kind of people, and they didn't have any ability except for their strong gag ability - they were just two little bastards. But it is not clear why Professor Zhang values these two guys so much, and he is quite polite along the way.

And the black boy, whose stunned appearance was very in tune with the temperament of the professor's two nervous students, grabbed the biscuits on the table and ate them after he came in, not treating himself as an outsider at all.

"This meeting involves a high level of confidentiality, and you should automatically recuse yourself if you have no relevant information." Jin Guoqiang's words are already very polite.

Zi Yang's face couldn't hold it, and he got up to leave. Professor Zhang motioned for him to sit down, and then "solemnly" introduced the idlers he brought.

"These two men are my students and right-hand men. These two young menβ€”" he said, gesturing at Lao Wang and Ziyang, "Don't look at their young age, they have also experienced a lot of things, maybe it will help them in this matter." ”

Zi Yang glanced at Professor Zhang with some gratitude, although he was not interested in this kind of confidential meeting, he was still a little embarrassed to be kicked out in front of everyone.

It was Lao Wang, who sat there with Erlang's legs crossed, looking at Director Jin provocatively, although he had a short head, he still shook his hair proudly and made a reassuring expression.

"I'm really not afraid of death, you dare to scare this kind of person." Zi Yang is really worried about this guy with developed limbs and a stubby head.

In fact, he had a deeper level of worry in his heart, why did the professor bring the three of us with such a high-level action? What is the motivation? If it is just a reason for "rising knowledge", it seems too far-fetched. Do you want to develop me into the gang? But I'm basically a waste if I don't have anything to do, and this nerd around me is only a little more developed in limbs at most, but the IQ defect is also very obvious.

Could it be Blackie? Thinking of this, he looked at Xiao Hei next to him, who was licking the cookie crumbs on his palm.

Director Jin didn't pay attention to Lao Wang, turned his head to look at the general, and the general nodded, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Director Jin turned to a young man with glasses and said, "Go print a few copies of the confidentiality agreement." ”

The major general smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, professor, this matter is not trivial, the degree of secrecy is top secret, once everyone participates, they must strictly abide by the regulations and not leak any information." Today's young people, like to surf the Internet, show off, and can't wait to take out some novelties to show off, my turtle son, almost the same age as them, alas, ......"

The general said this half-jokingly and half-seriously, and Professor Zhang also smiled to show his understanding. Ziyang also couldn't help but smile beside him. Although Lao Wang is not used to it, he does not dare to make a mistake in front of this general who is not tall but imposing.

In just a few moments, the guards had already come in with a stack of non-disclosure agreements, and each handed out one. Zi Yang flipped through a few casually, but he didn't read the tense ligatures clearly, and only wrote his name tremblingly at the signature.

The old king next door didn't care, and signed his name with a phoenix, and then looked at everyone with his chest up, quite a heroic and righteous style.

Ziyang and Lao Wang have had the desire to be soldiers since they were children, and they also applied for the military academy together during the college entrance examination, but because of their own conditions (background), they failed to do so. Since then, when I saw the soldiers, I had a feeling of envy and resistance. Now seeing so many soldiers in straight uniforms and wearing high-ranking military ranks, I suddenly have a sense of inferiority, feeling that I am a broken college student, and I am really as gray as a dog in front of others.

Director Jin cleared his throat and said, "The situation I am talking about below is all top secret, except for those who are present today, it is not allowed to mention it to any outsider on any occasion, at any time." ”

On the big screen behind him, slides began to play.

"Qinhan Village, 278 registered households, 1,072 people, 388 adult males, 356 adult females......"

"With the river as the boundary, on the south side of the river, there is a collective extinction of foot creatures, and the time of death is three o'clock in the morning on the X day of the Xth month."

Zi Yang's head buzzed, he didn't know what the specific concept of a foot creature was, but biological extinction was a very serious word, and from the mouth of a soldier could imagine the seriousness of the situation - no wonder there were guards standing guard at the entrance of the village.

Lao Wang also opened his mouth wide with a demented expression, in modern society, there is such a huge collective event? Not only unseen, but simply unheard of.

The introduction of Director Jin came into the ears one after another, how many cows, how many sheep, how many chickens, ducks and dogs, the number was clear, all of them died collectively, and the time of death was concentrated at three o'clock in the morning.

Professor Zhang flipped through the materials in his hand and wrote something quickly in his notebook. The general lit a cigarette, clasped his hands to his chest and did not speak, his face buried behind the smoke, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

Zi Yang looked at Lao Wang in disbelief: "Do you understand what you mean?" ”

Lao Wang nodded, swallowed his saliva and said, "I understand, those who can pant are dead." ”

Director Jin continued while playing the slide picture with the remote control, "According to the on-site investigation, most of the animal carcasses are stiff, their limbs are twisted and spasmodic, and their gums are bloody. Organisms of several square kilometers showed this symptom, and at this scale, at first, we thought it was a biochemical WQ. ”

Professor Zhang shook his head and said to himself, "No, I have carefully observed the scene, and according to the current internationally published data, no kind of biochemistry can cause such symptoms, and I have not seen similar cases in many poisoning incidents." ”

The general nodded, "The reason why we made this judgment is that according to the evidence collection, the time of death is very uniform. Second, there was no trace of struggle or resistance at the scene. No radiation residue was detected in the vicinity. ”

"What was even more puzzling was that after the autopsy, it was found that there were no chemical residues in the corpse. There weren't even any fatal wounds. ”

Professor Zhang nodded and said, "Is there any data on changes in air composition and climate?" ”

Director Jin said: "I have already tested it as soon as I came, and everything is normal. ”

Turning his head to the staff member operating the instrument, he said, "Report real-time data." ”

"Air composition is normal", "Temperature is normal", "Humidity is normal", "No anomalous radiation detected" ......

Director Jin nodded, "We have a command post as the center, and a number of monitoring and sensing devices are placed within a radius of 1 kilometer, and the data will be transmitted back in real time." ”

Lao Wang nodded thoughtfully, "I take the liberty of asking, I heard that some foreign organizations have mastered very high-end military technology, and it is said that there is a kind of sonic weapon that can blow up the entire village in an instant, isn't it ......?"

Director Jin shook his head categorically with the general, "Impossible, with the current level of development of sonic weapons, if you want to achieve a kill of this scale, it will definitely cause very obvious physical damage, but no corresponding traces of destruction have been found in either the corpse or the surrounding environment." ”

Zi Yang glanced at Lao Wang, he is not knowledgeable enough, don't talk casually, he is embarrassed here.

Director Jin continued, "It stands to reason that in this kind of weather, the corpse should decompose quickly, but there is no obvious decomposition status yet. ”

"In other words, most of the microorganisms were also killed?" Zi Yang finally couldn't help it and asked, "Didn't the villagers on the other side find anything abnormal?" ”

Director Jin glanced at him, "At first, the villagers reported the case, and the township also attached great importance to it after receiving the report...... Because of the seriousness and particularity of the situation, and out of the need for confidentiality, the case changed hands several times before finally being handed over to us. ”

Director Jin paused and said, "Qinhan Village is not too far from the border, considering that it may involve the security of the country, we first sent a special task force to control the scene, and while surveying, we also conducted an investigation among the villagers, and the results were rather disappointing. ”

"On the night of the incident, everything was normal. Villagers generally put their livestock and poultry in the wild, and there were never special circumstances, until the next morning, when a villager crossed the bridge to grass, he discovered the abnormality. ”

"The villagers here are not used to communicating with outsiders and speak a very difficult dialect. We have limited information and are still being monitored and investigated. Judging from the current situation, it was not the villagers' doing. ”

"It's been two days since the incident, and none of the country's most senior experts and veterinarians have been able to explain this phenomenon, and we have contacted some scientists through various channels and shown them some relevant information, but none of them have an accurate answer." ”

"So, in the end, we had to turn to Professor Zhang for help, and now the possibility of all kinds of speculation is getting lower and lower, and there is a possibility that is getting bigger and bigger-" Professor Zhang and the general looked at each other and said a few words almost at the same time, "Unnatural mysterious power." ”
