Paranormal Investigation Notes

Chapter 118 Yang Qi
"Isn't this too ridiculous?"

In the Binhai Building, among a group of people wearing full-body protective suits and carrying various equipment, one of the first complained to the people around him: "Those specimens are all collected from here, and we have tested them all." Now, where are there any unknown microorganisms, is it necessary to come here again for on-site testing?"

The person next to him sneered: "Old Shen, what are you complaining about? If you have money, you can get it. It's none of our business what they like to do with the rich."

"It's not a question of whether there is money or not. Can't you see that they are all public funds?"

"Hush!...Shut up, don't talk nonsense. Let's do what the boss says."

"...Hmph, bacteria, is it more fresh to pay attention to the place of origin? Ridiculous."

The microbiologist known as Old Shen finally lowered his voice, but he still couldn't help complaining about the last sentence.

A group of people rushed into the Binhai Building, and got busy in the lobby on the first floor of the Binhai Building.After a few hours, a seemingly simple biological laboratory with all kinds of facilities has been set up.

During this process, whenever a staff member was thirsty to drink water, or went to the bathroom to meet their physiological needs, they had to temporarily leave the Binhai Building and undergo a series of disinfection procedures before putting on their full-body protective clothing. take off.

Because there are very strict regulations above, within the scope of the Binhai Building, no matter what the situation is, it is not allowed to take off the protective clothing.So when encountering a situation where you need to take off your protective clothing, you can only go out first.

This set of procedures is very troublesome, and it significantly delays the construction process of the biological laboratory.Fortunately, after a few hours, the biological laboratory was still set up, ready for follow-up work.

But it was almost dark now.So under the order of the superior, many staff had to evacuate, and all follow-up work was postponed to the next day.

This aroused Lao Shen's dissatisfaction again.

"What's the matter when it's dark? You can't work when it's dark? If you finish the work earlier, you can save some money for the government. I've never seen such a pretentious one. It's just nonsense!"

"Don't talk about Lao Shen, who wouldn't be happy to get off work early?! Is it just you with high consciousness?"

Another microbiologist next to him quickly pulled his protective clothing to stop his complaints.

Lao Shen left the Binhai Building in a huff, and accepted the disinfection procedure with a drooping face.After taking off the protective clothing, he saw a young man walking towards him.

He knew that the young man was called Lu Ming, and he was the one who gave the order to enter Binhai Building for on-site inspection at this moment, and he was also the one who made a series of outrageous regulations.

"Professor Shen, hello..."

Lu Ming greeted him respectfully, and just about to say something, he saw Professor Shen snorted, ignored him, and walked away.

Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, and after embarrassment, a wry smile appeared on his face.

Combined with his own understanding of Professor Shen's background information, he knew that Professor Shen was a serious and rigid scientist with a decent style.

"I'm afraid he was able to take over this task only because of the orders of his superiors..."

Lu Ming knew that he might not have the chance to wash his image in Professor Shen's heart.Because of the details of the murderous house case, he could not disclose it to outsiders like Professor Shen.

At this moment, he remembered the oath he had made when he joined the second action team.At the same time, I have a deeper understanding of this oath.

Shaking his head, he gave up his plan to continue communicating with Professor Shen, and turned back to the temporary headquarters.

In any case, as long as Professor Shen can continue to cooperate with his work and continue to perform tasks.

In the evening, the regular meeting of the second action team was held again.At this time, Zhang Dingshan and He Wei, who had been busy outside for a day, also returned here.Lu Qingliang's figure also appeared in the video screen again.

"Further inspections on Binhai Building have results. It has been confirmed that the reason for the abnormal decrease in the performance of its internal materials is that it has suffered some kind of corrosion. This corrosion is caused by the joint action of various compounds. At present, the inspection team Trace amounts of hydrochloric acid and ammonia compounds have been isolated from it."

Over the course of decades, these compounds have persisted and unremittingly interacted with the materials that make up the Marina Tower, slowly weakening their performance.After a long enough period of time, the effects they caused finally manifested from a macro perspective.

The foundation of the Binhai Building has uneven settlement, and the building has a tendency to incline.

"Are these things originally in the reinforced concrete of the Binhai Building, or did they appear later? If they appeared later, where did they come from?"

"It's been established that these corrosive compounds come from the outside of the walls, not those that are in the reinforced concrete to begin with. The argument is that if they were in the reinforced concrete to begin with, then within a short period of time, these compounds It will all react with the wall material, and subsequent reactions should stop. But now, this reaction has been going on for decades, and it has recently begun to accelerate greatly, so it can be determined that they must come from the outside. "

"From outside where?"

"I don't know. This kind of corrosion does not appear on the surface of the wall, only inside the wall."

He Wei replaced Zhang Dingshan and told Lu Ming the answer to this question.

"Penetrate through the surface and directly... inject these corrosive substances into the wall?"

He Wei shook her head solemnly.

Obviously, she couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Okay." Lu Ming asked another question: "The rate of damage to the Binhai Building is increasing, are you sure?"

"It's confirmed." Zhang Dingshan's tone began to become dignified: "In the past year, the damage to the Binhai Building accounted for 80.00% of the overall damage."

Lu Ming knew this before.

"But...in the past month, the damage to the Binhai Building accounted for 60.00% of the total damage in the past year."

Under this data, several people were silent together.Only Lu Qingliang murmured: "A month ago... that was probably when Binhai Building was completely sealed off by us just now, and no one was allowed to enter or leave..."

About a year ago, Wu Xiuzhu was strictly prohibited from entering Binhai Building.

Since then, the damage rate of Binhai Building has experienced a huge increase.

A month ago, Binhai Building was completely blocked, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.Therefore, from that time on, the damage rate of the Binhai Building has once again increased greatly on the basis of the original basis.

"Well, now we can basically confirm that the purpose of Loushen's continuous killing is to eliminate the interference of human activities, so that he can concentrate on breaking the formation..."

The continuous occurrence of abnormal deaths inside the Binhai Building will inevitably trigger a series of chain reactions.Among them, one of the most intuitive reactions is that the number of active personnel in the Binhai Building will decrease rapidly, so that it will be completely blocked in the end.

With no one inside, the damage rate of the Binhai Building was greatly increased.

This seems to mean that human activities inside the Binhai Building will affect the production of those compounds and their "delivery" into the walls.That's why Loushen used the intimidation method of killing people continuously to scare everyone away.

However, why do human activities in the Binhai Building affect the Loushen?
At this moment, Lu Ming had several guesses.For example, constantly running fresh air and air conditioning systems?The skin flakes that are constantly falling off the human body, the air that is constantly breathing out?Constant cleaning and sanitation?
Or from a metaphysical point of view, popularity, or...yang energy?
After all, no matter what kind of metaphysical theory, it has almost been described that when there are too many people, there will be more life breaths such as yang energy, and then metaphysical existences such as ghosts and gods cannot be easily approached or exert influence.

"It is still necessary to think about the problem from a scientific point of view."

After settling his mind, Lu Ming warned himself secretly in his heart, and then said: "No matter why 'there are too many people in the Binhai Building, it will affect the damage to the wall of the Binhai Building', at least, this kind of The possibility exists. Then, if you want to stop Loushen's 'breaking the formation' action, you should be able to start from here."

He Wei nodded: "The captain and I have also thought of this. But... how to start? Where to start?"

Obviously, it is obviously not feasible to directly let those many people return to the Binhai Mansion to work and live in the Binhai Mansion as they did before the murder case happened.

Loushen's previous killing behavior showed considerable restraint.For example, killing people only at night, and not killing people when there are many people together.

Of course, this may also be due to some kind of "restrictions" unknown to our own side, but... who can guarantee?
If Loushen's goal of driving people away from the Binhai Building fails, will it upgrade its methods to kill more people?

This is a huge risk that no one can accept.

Although it has been confirmed that all the victims died from the poisonous toxin, and the absorption method of the poisonous toxin is through the skin, from this point of view, the full body protective clothing seems to be able to prevent this kind of harm.

However, at present, people still don't know much about the chemical properties of the toxin, who can ensure that protective clothing can isolate this toxin and protect the human body?

There are many chemicals that can penetrate several layers of protective gloves and endanger the human body.

And... who can confirm that fear of poison and toxin is the only means of killing Loushen?
