Paranormal Investigation Notes

Chapter 52 Organizational Forms
House god?

When He Wei saw these two words on the transcript of the inquiry, the first thing He Wei thought of was the mountain god.

Perhaps, the family god and the mountain god refer to the same existence at all.

In this way, Sun Yong, who was found to buy genetic data from the gene bank through bribery, should be an official member of the X organization.After all, he can still know the image of the mountain god—or the image of the family god, unlike these peripheral personnel, who either don't know the existence of the family god at all, or know that it exists, but don't know what its image is.

At the same time, another detail also caught He Wei's attention.

She noticed that the confessions of the descendants of the Shang family seemed to indicate the organizational form of the X organization.

With the changes of the times, the organizational form of this organization established around the mountain gods has also been changing.From the beginning of the poor boy fighting alone, to the Tang family's blood relationship as the organizational link, and now, it has become a family plus religion organization.

In terms of loyalty and confidentiality, the form of family plus religion seems to be double insurance.

It's just that apart from this point, the investigation of the Shang family did not yield any valuable information.

This filled He Wei with anger again.

After spending so much effort and doing so many things, they finally found the key clues and finally locked the Shang family. Who would have thought that the X organization would cut off its tail to survive and hide itself again!
Can our side still find a way to find out the traces of the X organization?
At this moment, Zhang Dingshan's expression was still full of calm.

"Don't worry." He said calmly, "You can think about what the purpose of Organization X is doing this."

"Of course it's to cut off the clues..."

"More than that." Zhang Dingshan shook his head: "This is only the first level of meaning. Wouldn't it be better if it was just to cut off the clues and let these people disappear instead of dying?"

He Wei was taken aback.

This is true.

It is better to be missing than dead.And with the ability of the X organization, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it can't be done.

If so, then...

"Organization X hopes to give us an explanation through the death of these people. An excuse that can be justified no matter who it is to, and stop the investigation. After all, people are dead, what else do you want?"

He Wei snorted: "Why should we follow their arrangement?"

"They are begging us, begging us, not demanding us. In that suicide note, the will that all the profits of the Shang Group will be donated to social welfare causes is our reward. They paid us, gave us Confess, and then pray that we end the investigation and not go any further."

"Are you afraid now? It's too late."

He Wei didn't have any sympathy for the Shang Group or the X Organization in her heart.Even if the opponent has placed his posture so low.

Zhang Dingshan smiled slightly: "If we don't accept their request, these descendants of the Shang family who died inexplicably will be a warning to us. I can almost be sure that we will be able to find out something extraordinary from those corpses .”

As if to prove Zhang Dingshan's words, a moment later, a communication request came to He Wei's phone.

He Wei connected and listened for a while, her expression getting worse and worse.

"The autopsy results are out." After hanging up the phone, she said to Zhang Dingshan: "Our forensic doctor did not find any cause of death. Those corpses were healthy before death, and there was nothing that could cause death, but they just died."

"Is it 'hibernation'?"

The suspended animation of Lu Ming and others, after investigation, finally found that they had entered some kind of hibernation state.

"It's not hibernation, it's dead, it's been confirmed."

Zhang Dingshan tapped on the table lightly: "Look, threats and deterrence are coming. If we don't know good from bad, these corpses may be our end."

"You still dare to threaten us, it's against the sky!"

He Wei's face was full of anger, and she jumped up against the case.

The world government will never accept threats.The Planetary Security Bureau will never accept threats, and the entire operation department, including the second operation team, will never accept threats either.

This matter must be investigated and the truth revealed. Unless it is impossible, nothing can stop the second team from moving forward.

Perhaps, Organization X just didn't know enough about the Planetary Security Agency, or they didn't have much hope, and they just made this attempt for a while.

Zhang Dingshan's expression remained unchanged: "It's meaningless to threaten or not. We don't need to worry about it. However, through this incident, it seems that Organization X also knows that as long as we continue to investigate, they will not be able to escape."

"But the clue is broken again, what should I do next?"

He Wei's heart was full of anger and frustration at the moment.

Zhang Dingshan said: "At the beginning, Shang Jilong went out to sea with Shang Jilong, and some of his loyal subordinates. We have reason to believe that this is the original skeleton of the X organization. These people jointly keep the secret of offering sacrifices to the mountain gods, and share the enjoyment of the mountain gods. The benefits obtained there gradually evolved into Organization X. In order to ensure cohesion, an organizational form of family plus religion evolved.

There must be forces other than the Shang family in the X organization.And... Those forces that are most likely to exist in the form of families, which families will they be? "

He Wei's eyes lit up.

This is an obvious thing.He Wei knew the answer almost without thinking.

Of course it was Shang Jilong's loyal subordinate families back then.

As for whether Shang Jilong went out to sea, whether he could continue to hold the sacrificial ceremony to gain benefits from the mountain god, He Wei didn't think about it.

She didn't think it was a problem at all.Because obviously, Organization X has a new, possibly more convenient method of sacrifice.At the same time, when they went to sea, it is not ruled out that they took away some verified blood descendants of "effective sacrifices", and they can also hold sacrificial ceremonies overseas to obtain benefits.

"I'll check right away."

He Wei believes that it should be a very simple matter to investigate which families were passed down by Shang Jilong's loyal subordinates.After all, how many families appeared in the local area at the same time, and which families the Shang family had close contacts with were basically public information.

But she was disappointed in the end.

Related investigations did not find any clues.It seems that the Shang family was the only one that developed at the beginning.

This was also slightly beyond Zhang Dingshan's expectations.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Dingshan said: "Our investigation may be in the wrong direction. Our eyes should not be limited to Shang Jilong. Religious organizational forms can break through the restrictions of family blood. Perhaps in this process, Shang Jilong Or his descendants absorbed more foreign believers for their own use at the religious level, and eventually evolved into the X organization."

However, the religious form adopted by Organization X is obviously very secretive, and the believers they recruit may not have any connection with the Shang Group in normal social relations.

In this case, the situation will evolve into a number of individuals or forces that are not related to each other on the surface and have no relationship at all, and are only organized through religious connections.Through this form, Organization X has built a strong enough firewall for itself. Even if something happens to the Shang family, it will not implicate other people in the organization.

Perhaps, this is why Organization X believes that it can hide itself again through the deaths of Shang's children.

"But... I don't believe that there is such a pure organizational form that only has connections at the religious level and has no connection at the level of normal social relations. From the level of capital flow and business activities of the Shang Group, from the individual behavior of family members On the other hand, we must be able to find clues. Let Qing Liang call in experts."

All the existing evidence shows that the purpose of organization X's sacrifice to the mountain god is to gain benefits.And these benefits are obviously within the framework of the human world, that is, only within the human world, these benefits are meaningful.

Such as wealth, such as longevity, such as curing diseases, defeating competitors, managing one's own power, and so on.

On the whole, the mountain god sacrifice organized by X is more like an act of gaining more advantages in the internal competition of the human world through some kind of unfair competition.

Organization X has never been separated from the human world.

Since they are just a group of mortals living in the human world—at best they have some special abilities, then, can such an organization really be able to implement [-]% the "firewall" strategy formulated by X Organization perfectly?

The company is short of funds and facing a crisis. Should it temporarily borrow from other companies belonging to the same organization, or obtain other solutions by offering sacrifices to mountain gods?

If you are facing some troubles, should you seek help from other people belonging to the same organization, or go to sacrifice to the mountain god to solve it?
Obviously, it's easier and faster to ask for help from other people who belong to the same organization.After all, the "sacrifice to the mountain god" is a matter at the level of the entire X organization, and mutual help within is a private act.

Between the two, in terms of convenience, they are not the same.

So, even if such a simple and quick act of reporting to the group to warm up will destroy the "firewall" strategy of "strict isolation at the social level to prevent mutual entanglement, and only maintain contact at the religious level", even if it is banned, can it really be completely banned? put an end to?

Zhang Dingshan thinks this is impossible.This is not in line with human nature.

There will always be people who are lucky, thinking, just this time, it is done in a subtle way, and it is impossible to have any impact on the whole.

But when too many people have this idea, the situation is different.

However, in the face of this group behavior, the traces left by it cannot be completely cleaned up.

Perhaps Organization X is also aware of this situation.That's why, in the handling of the Shang family, their stance was so low, they only asked themselves to stop the investigation.

Under the coordination of Lu Qingliang and the Operations Department, many accountants, financial and tax personnel, accounting audit experts and others quickly came to the city where the Shang Group is located.

Then, several commercial companies or individuals that seemed completely unrelated to the Shang Group came into the field of vision of the second action team.
