"Mom!" Lu Fang cried bitterly.
"Teacher!" Jiang Chan was also sobbing.
He Xingzhou lowered his head and mourned silently. In the past few years, academician Pan Yan has been leading the biochemical research at the Shaota Research Institute. She worked day and night and was still worried about the Xuanwu Project until the last moment of her life. It is admirable!
The doctors conducted further tests and rescue operations, but were still unable to do anything. They could only announce: "Academician Pan has left us."
All doctors and nurses, including researchers at the institute, bowed their heads in silence.
At this time, the sentry reminded: "Academician Pan has a last word for you."
"Open it." Lu Fang said.
The holographic projection unfolded in front of them, and Pan Yan's image appeared in front of them.
This was recorded after she was in coma for the first time. She smiled and said: "I've been feeling mentally exhausted lately. Maybe my days are numbered..."
"I am very happy to be able to participate in the Xuanwu Project and contribute to the entire country and the entire mankind. People will eventually grow old, so it is a blessing to be able to participate in such a great project at the last moment of life..."
"Finally, give my research information to Jiang Chan. I have signed a body donation agreement. After my death, I suspect that my brain has been affected by the Zerg. You can focus on research."
"I hope the Xuanwu plan will eventually be implemented smoothly."
The video ended here. After watching it, Lu Fang said with tears: "She worked too hard."
"In the last moments of his life, the teacher was still thinking about the Xuanwu Plan!" Jiang Chan couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Academician Pan, have a good journey." The researchers were filled with grief.
He Xingzhou raised his head, took a deep breath, and said: "Academician Pan, use your life to explain what it means to serve the country and the people, dedicate yourself to the end, and die! You should be an unparalleled national scholar!"
"I will apply to the higher authorities to award her the Xuanwu Medal posthumously, so that people across the country will know her contribution!"
"I'm late." Song Jinghong also arrived. After understanding what happened, he sighed with emotion: "Academician Pan should be a role model for our generation!"
He discussed with Lu Fang: "In a few days, the whole country will hold a memorial ceremony for the heroes who died in the defense of the Magic City. Please invite Academician Pan to join us. The place where she is is also a battlefield!"
"Yeah." Lu Fang nodded.
"Don't be too sad, everyone. We still have responsibilities and tasks on our shoulders!" he comforted.
He Xingzhou looked at Jiang Chan and said, "What did you want to say just now?"
Jiang Chan held back her grief and said, "I suspect that Academician Pan's death is related to Experimental Subject No. 9!"
"What?" When she finished speaking, everyone was shocked.
"Do you have any evidence?" He Xingzhou asked.
Jiang Chan said: "The teacher gave me a piece of information a year ago and asked me to study the impact of bioelectric waves on the human brain."
"It was during this period that the teacher's physical and mental condition began to deteriorate. She often came into contact with Experimental Subject No. 9. This Experimental Subject has never had any abnormalities or mutations."
"Initial data suggest it may have the ability to affect the human brain."
"After the defense of the Magic City, there were cases of people experiencing mental disorders. This is very similar to what I studied before, and the teacher must have guessed it. She fainted when she went to observe Experimental Subject No. 9!"
After Jiang Chan finished speaking, He Xingzhou, Song Jinghong and others realized that something was wrong.
"If the Zerg can directly affect the human brain, how can we fight this war?"
"Do you have a way to prove it? Or find out the key?" He Xingzhou asked.
Jiang Chan nodded slightly and said: "Based on the teacher's experiments and my own ideas, I simulated an experiment. It can prove that the Zerg can affect people's brain thinking and even control people's actions. I am almost perfected. I will give it to you again. I can simulate the experiment in just one day!”
"Okay, then you'd better start now!" He Xingzhou said, "Time waits for no one!"
"Yeah!" Jiang Chan immediately started to prepare, and He Xingzhou arranged for a few people to help her.
Because she had been preparing before, Jiang Chan was ready in less than a day and ten hours later.
He Xingzhou, Kong Qing, and Song Jinghong were all present at the Sento Tower Research Institute. In addition, there was also an academician in biochemical research, Academician Zhuge Yi, who was previously Academician Pan Yan's partner.
Now that Academician Pan Yan has passed away, the biochemical research at the Shaota Research Institute will be led by him.
Jiang Chan explained: "This experiment proves that brain waves can affect the thinking of mammals and control their behavior."
"I call it a brainwave co-frequency experiment."
"In order to complete this experiment, I prepared several intact and normal mice. As well as a biological brainwave control adapter, I implanted the receiving electrodes into the cerebral cortex of the mice, and then transmitted the corresponding commands through the computer."
The assistants have completed the operation. They performed operations on a total of five mice, and electrodes were installed on their brains.
“I have recorded the brain waves generated when mice perform dozens of actions,” Jiang Chan said. “Now I want to use a computer to transmit these brain waves so that the current frequency is at the same frequency as their brain’s brain waves to control their behavior. "
"The first step is to walk forward." Jiang Chan started the control system, and the five white mice started to walk forward one by one.
"Can it really be done?" Everyone was a little surprised, but it has not yet been proven that brain waves at the same frequency can completely control them.
"Back off!" Jiang Chan gave the command again, and the mouse indeed started to back off.
"Jump!" she gave the third command, and the mice jumped together.
"Lie down!"
"Roll!" Every command she gave could make the mice move, but one of them died suddenly.
Jiang Chan explained: "This technology is not mature yet. I found that this kind of brain wave at the same frequency will cause irreversible damage to the brain. And what I experimented with can only allow mice to simply perform this kind of movement, and other complex movements cannot be done." Do it.”
"The mechanism of the human brain is more complex, and I can't control the human brain, but I think since the Zerg are alien creatures, they may have this technology."
After seeing the experiments she conducted, everyone was already convinced.
He Xingzhou said: "You mean that Experimental Subject No. 9 has this ability and invaded Academician Pan Yan's brain?"
"It's very possible!" Jiang Chan said, "But it is too smart. Every time I test it, nothing can be found."
"I was looking through the information the teacher left for me just now, and I found that the teacher had recorded some of its brainwave data. She might have recorded it in some special way."
"There is such a thing!" Kong Qing, Song Jinghong, and Zhuge Yi were all shocked. "So, it is possible that Experimental Subject No. 9 murdered Academician Pan Yan!"
This guess shocked everyone, "An experimental subject murdered one of our academicians through brain waves?"
"We must investigate clearly!" Kong Qing said, "We cannot let Academician Pan's hard work go to waste!"
"Jiang Chan, you have been studying for so long, do you have any solution?" Song Jinghong asked.
Jiang Chan said: "There is only one possible way that I can try, and that is to install induction electrodes on the brain of Subject No. 9. While experimenting with it, record its brain waves, and then perform brain wave translation."
"This method is very risky because our brainwave sensing technology and related language translation technology are not mature. If the experiment fails, it may die directly!"
Everyone thought for a while, and He Xingzhou said: "Since there is evidence to prove that Experimental Subject No. 9 is intelligent."
"If it can really influence human brain thinking, then it might also be able to understand human language."
"Just torture it!"
"Torture a Zerg?" When everyone heard his thoughts, they were a little surprised at first, and then came back to their senses and said: "It is indeed possible, but how to torture it? It is a bit difficult to make it answer."
"Find an interrogation expert and I'll torture it!" He Xingzhou said.
After everyone prepared, they arrived at the breeding room where Experimental Subject No. 9 was located. They also specially prepared radio wave shielding devices to prevent them from being affected by it.
This white dolphin is sleeping. Normally, the two hemispheres of a dolphin's brain sleep alternately so that it can always stay awake.
But this mutated creature is different. It sleeps like a human being, floating on the water with its belly on its back, sleeping soundly!
"Experimental Subject No. 9!" He Xingzhou, Kong Qing, Song Jinghong, Zhuge Yi, Jiang Chan and an interrogation expert came here. He Xingzhou shouted first.
This guy still didn't move at all, as if he had fallen asleep.
He Xingzhou said directly to the AI system sentry: "Shock it."
A weak electric current stimulated Experimental Subject No. 9, and it woke up suddenly. Then, it saw a bunch of people staring at it.
This guy looked unhappy and stared at everyone.
He Xingzhou slapped the table and said, "Experimental Subject No. 9, I know you can understand what we are saying!"
"Now we are here to interrogate you. We suspect that you are related to the death of Academician Pan Yan. You are a murder suspect! According to our laws, murder must be punished with life! Do you understand?"
He Xingzhou shouted, but Experimental Subject No. 9 still ignored him and climbed to the shore to avoid being electrocuted further.
He Xingzhou said: "Now in front of you, there is a holographic projection screen with human language and text on it. You can type and communicate with us. If you can do it, answer my questions."
After he finished speaking, Experimental Subject No. 9 remained silent.
He Xingzhou glanced at Jiang Chan, who stepped forward and said, "Dabai, I know you can understand what we are saying!"
"I don't want to hurt you, but if you refuse to communicate with us, we can only use brainwave detection equipment to detect your thoughts."
"It implants itself in your cerebral cortex, and it's painful."
She is fooling Experimental Subject No. 9. Currently, humans do not have the technology to read the thoughts of living creatures.
He Xingzhou followed him and tricked it, saying: "If we determine that you are a criminal, you will be punished in the cruelest way. For example, make sashimi, braised dolphin, steamed dolphin, dried dolphin, etc."
Perhaps after hearing his threat, Experimental Subject No. 9 finally moved. It propped up its body in the water, but it did not operate the projection screen, but spoke directly.
"You natives are so annoying. I just want to eat quietly and wait to die. Why are you disturbing me?" It spoke in Chinese with a thin and soft voice, like the voice of a little human girl.
"It really can talk!" Zhuge Yi stood up, "After studying it for so long, we all thought you were an ordinary mutant, but we didn't expect you to be an advanced Zerg!"
No. 9, the dolphin named Dabai by Jiang Chan, laughed and said, "That's because you are too stupid."
Jiang Chan heard it talking and asked, "Dabai, does the teacher's death have anything to do with you?"
Dabai said: "I am not in the mood nor have the ability to kill a native."
"She is already very old, and she keeps trying to communicate with me through brain waves. Her brain can't bear it. Speaking of which, you should also thank me. If it weren't for me, her research on the Zerg language would not be as fast! "
"You can talk, why don't you communicate with us directly?" Song Jinghong asked.
Dabai said: "Why? Why do I have to communicate with a group of indigenous people from a lower civilization? You will all be wiped out by the Zerg in the end anyway."
"Are you not a Zerg?" He Xingzhou captured the key point in its words, "What kind of creature are you? Are you also an alien creature?"
"Why should I tell you?" Dabai smiled.
"Because now your destiny is in our hands!" He Xingzhou emphasized.
"That's just what you think." Dabai said disdainfully, "So what if you kill me, do you think I will really die? You natives have no idea about the technology of real advanced civilizations!"
Everyone is becoming more and more confused. Isn't this guy a Zerg? Isn't it afraid of death? From what it sounds like, it seems like humans can't kill it.
"Then, why do you advanced civilization come to Blue Star? What is your relationship with the Zerg? Why are you a dolphin?" He Xingzhou asked.
"You are not qualified to know." Dabai said, "Since you already know that I can talk, I advise you not to do anything extraordinary to me, otherwise you will regret it."
"Aren't you afraid?" He Xingzhou asked.
"Of course I'm not afraid, I just don't want to waste resources." Dabai said, "By the way, this house is too small, I need to change to a larger villa, and the food is too unpalatable, I need a special chef."
"Let this little girl be my nanny!"
It pointed at Jiang Chan.
"Exchange of equal value!" He Xingzhou said, "Since you made the request, you should give us some information."
Dabai thought for a while and said, "It makes sense."
"Don't you want to know if the Zerg have the ability to control the brains of living things? I can tell you, yes!"
"Some advanced Zerg can influence the thinking of other creatures through brain waves. If they synchronize their brain waves, they can also control human behavior. Although this will cause irreversible damage to the human brain, they do not treat you as such. No matter what, you will perish sooner or later!"
After hearing its words, everyone was horrified. They found that they still knew too little about the Zerg!
He Xingzhou asked: "If you have any other information about the Zerg, please tell us."
