Now, Lu Ming knows a little more about the enemy hidden in the shadows, although this is still useless for the time being.

Unless it can be deduced from this what the real purpose of the enemy's continued crime is. But now it seems that this path is still not going to work.

For Lu Ming's reaction speed and summary, Zhang Dingshan showed a certain appreciation. He continued: "So, what do you think of the enemy's new modus operandi? ”

This is very important.

Lu Ming was silent.

After a long time, he said: "Looking at the enemy's modus operandi, they do not want to confront us head-on, which is why they chose the least noticeable method in the first place, that is, the kidnapping of the 'dead'. Now, if they really have 'indicators', the new modus operandi will most likely still be based on the principle of being as concealed as possible. And, apart from kidnapping the 'dead', which means is the most hidden? ”

He Wei knocked on the table dissatisfied: "Hey, we are asking you." ”

"Okay, okay." Lu Ming sneered for a moment and continued: "I think there are two possibilities. First, it is still the kidnapping of the 'dead', but there will be some changes in the way, such as changing to a new hibernation fake death drug to evade our detection. II. Missing persons. ”

When the words "missing persons" were spoken, several people were silent for a moment at the same time.

No matter what era, no matter what political structure, no matter how clean and efficient the government is, there will always be a dark side in the world. This is unavoidable in any era.

Crossfire, vendettas, assassinations, corpse hiding, accidents, disaster avoidance, disasters, human trafficking, etc., can cause a living person to disappear from the world, never to be found again.

It is estimated that the average number of missing people in the world every year is in the tens of millions.

Of course, a large part of this number will reappear in the coming period, but there is also a small number - still averaging more than 100,000 per year, never to be found.

They may stumble and fall off a cliff during a trip, their bodies may be eaten by wild beasts, they may fall into the ice crevices and never see the light of day again, some will be swallowed by quicksand, some will die in the jaws of tigers, some will be killed in some dark corner, their bodies will be burned, some will be imprisoned in some underground dark room, and so on, and so on.

Even with the capabilities of the world government, it is not possible to thoroughly investigate every case of disappearance.

Whereas...... With the average number of people kidnapped by this secret organization every few days, and the frequency of only about 100 people per year, there is no way to investigate such a small number of people hiding in such a huge number of missing people.

On the other hand, there is no way to investigate the "new hibernation and fake death drug".

Even the anchor drug molecules that are now used to detect whether the body is suspended from death are only checked out by Lu Ming, a survivor. Unless another survivor emerges, there is no chance at all at the level of human technology.

Both roads are dead ends, and neither of them can be taken through the road.

"I'm afraid the only viable path now is to start with the true purpose of that secret organization. And this can be found out by analyzing what the five victims have in common. ”

There is a high probability that one thing that the five victims have in common is the real purpose of the secret organization's continuous "kidnapping" operations.

This point, whether it is Zhang Dingshan, He Wei or Lu Ming, has already thought of it. However, follow-up analysis is also impossible.

Although these five people are all over the world, men, women and children, there are still many things in common, such as they are all human beings, they are all healthy people, etc., but this is obviously meaningless.

There is no meaningful common denominator, or rather, people simply don't know which common ground is meaningful. In this way, it is impossible to distinguish the laws of the secret organization.

"This road doesn't seem to work......"

Things get incredibly tricky.

Lu Ming was a little panicked at the moment.

It was because of the fear that this case would eventually become an unsolved case and eventually be shelved.

If this case becomes an unsolved case, Zhang Dingshan and the others will just have one more question in their hearts, and their follow-up work and life will not be affected at all. After all, according to them, this kind of case involving some kind of "supernatural force" is normal without finding out the final result. I don't know how many unsolved cases have been archived in the Planetary Security Agency Archives.

But I'm different!

I don't want to live in fear all day long, and for the rest of my life I can only tremble and remain incognito, never see my parents, relatives and friends again, and never return to normal life!

No, no, absolutely not!

At this moment, He Wei looked at Lu Ming with a faint trace of sympathy.

She knows that if there is no progress, then the final outcome of this case will really become an unsolved case. And this means a temporary or permanent abandonment, the difference is only in the future, at a certain time in the future, whether there is a clue about the case will come out on its own again.

It's obviously a matter of luck and resignation.

In the face of this type of incident, it is also helpless to resign to fate.

Lu Ming's tone was a little dry: "The available evidence shows that on average, hundreds of people disappear inexplicably every year due to the cruelty of the secret organization, as a representative of the civilized security forces, as the protector of the ordinary people, you, you will not sit idly by, right?" ”

He Wei sighed: "Although I also know that this is unreasonable, ...... Each and every one of us did our best, there was no way. You know. ”

Lu Ming is indeed clear. He clearly saw how many resources the world government had devoted to this case, and how much manpower and material resources had been mobilized.

There are so many experts, just look for it.

There are so many soldiers and advanced equipment, and when they say they are mobilized, they will be mobilized.

When it comes to the investigation of millions of hospitals, it is said and done.

I tried every path I could think of.

If there is still no progress, what can be done?

Zhang Dingshan said: "Lu Ming, you don't have to worry too much. It's not time to give up. We will continue to investigate this case. ”

Lu Ming's face was very bad.

"I'll find new leads. Definitely. ”

……

Lu Ming knew that although he had done nothing wrong from beginning to end, and he had been just an innocent victim from beginning to end, now, except for the murderer who was still hiding in the shadows, he couldn't accuse anyone.

As He Wei said, no one wants to be like this, but no one can do it.

Now, then, the only thing you can do is to save yourself.

Save oneself!

Zhang Dingshan: They will continue to investigate and work hard for a while, and they will not give up now. Then, this time is my only chance.

A turnaround must be found! It is necessary to find meaningful common ground among the five victims, including themselves!

Only in this way can we break the deadlock and find a breakthrough!

But, but ......

Looking at the information of a total of five victims in front of him, including himself, Lu Ming's eyes were red, and his thoughts were spinning rapidly.

This information is very detailed and basically covers the life of each individual. is like Lu Ming's own information, which even shows some of his experiences when he was a child. And these experiences, even he forgot about himself.

Clearly, the data collectors put a lot of thought into this work.

"The Intersection of Time and Space...... No; Life experience, no; People who know each other in common, no; Actions or events that may lead to being targeted, no, no, no, no! ”

If, as described in some literary and artistic works, they have gone to a strange place, or received a strange phone call or email, or they have some strange beliefs and worship customs, or have held some strange rituals, etc., this can also be regarded as a clue, which can be used to carry out follow-up investigations. But nothing, nothing!

"Is it really a random crime? In that case, I really don't have a chance......"

Random crime is the hardest case to solve. There is basically a consensus on this.

After watching it for two days without sleep, his body was extremely tired, but Lu Ming, who was still in high spirits, had to temporarily close the folder.

He had to admit that the professionals of the Planetary Security Agency who stood behind Zhang Dingshan and He Wei failed to find meaningful common ground from this, let alone themselves.

But......

"Maybe we were looking in the wrong direction from the start."

"If I'm a person who's mastered 'supernatural powers' in some way, no, not necessarily human, but also extraterrestrial. If I need to kidnap some humans for some reason, what might be my criteria for picking targets? ”

As a graduate student in the Department of Astronomy, Lu Ming has received a certain degree of professional scientific training. At the same time, the experience of a part-time science fiction writer has made his thinking more divergent, and he is good at thinking about problems from a strange and bizarre, seemingly bizarre, unexpected but reasonable perspective under the premise of combining with a real scientific system.

It's a science fiction writer's ability to eat. Without this ability, how can you come up with amazing sci-fi "ideas"?

Now, Lu Ming plans to put aside the conventional direction of thinking and think about this issue from the rest of the directions.

"If I were an alien, or someone who had mastered the power of aliens beyond human technology, what would my criteria be for how I would view humanity?"

Lu Ming thought about it a lot, and thought about it for a long, long time. In addition to eating and sleeping, he always walked around, bowing his head in contemplation, within the range of activities he was allowed to move.

It is his personal habit to keep his brain high in tension and awake with the help of aimless strolls.

And all of this fell in the eyes of Zhang Dingshan and He Wei.

"Stimulating him and oppressing him through a sense of crisis can really inspire him?"

Zhang Dingshan's expression was calm: "Try it." ”

"If he can really help us solve this case, then maybe we can recruit him into our organization."

"Let's see."

Three days later, one early morning. After sleepless nights again, Lu Ming, whose eyes were red, found Zhang Dingshan and He Wei.

"I have an idea to try."
