"You mean to say that this time the prophecy predicts that the doomsday organization will build plank roads overtly and covertly, mislead us overtly, but target other disciplines?"

Zhang Dingshan looked solemn.

"more than."

Lu Ming shook his head: "My guess is that if this earthquake is predicted by the doomsday organization, then the target...may be all disciplines.

There is only one month left before the predicted doomsday comes. According to the previous thinking, that is, if the doomsday organization believes that the doomsday is true, then it is obviously impossible for them to still distract their energy and focus on absorbing foreign wisdom when the doomsday is about to happen.

I speculate that before the end comes, they will most likely set a deadline and determine a deadline event. After this incident, close the external window, stop predicting, stop absorbing external wisdom, and concentrate on dealing with the coming doomsday. "

Zhang Dingshan nodded slowly.

Although Lu Ming's speculation still has no empirical basis, it has to be said that it is indeed in line with "human nature."

Based on normal human logic, normal people would most likely choose to do this.

"So, do you think that if the doomsday organization makes a prediction about this earthquake, it will be a cut-off prophecy, and since it is a cut-off prophecy, there is a high probability that it will not only face a few disciplines, but all disciplines? "

Lu Ming said: "This is the last chance to make a profit. If we don't take advantage of this last chance to cast a wide net, will there be another chance in the future?"

Zhang Dingshan was silent.

This speculation has to be said to have some truth. In this case, the 26 suspects in earthquake-related scientific categories that we are currently paying attention to so far have not been a little bit strange, and that can be explained.

They are not the targets of the doomsday organization at all, and they have not received the prophecy at all, so of course there will be nothing abnormal.

But...if it covers all disciplines, then the number of people who meet the screening criteria will be more than 10,000.

With so many people, it is obviously impossible to closely monitor them all.

Moreover, more than two days have passed since the earthquake occurred. During this period of time, have you missed many things?

"Strategies must be adjusted immediately."

After realizing that there might be errors in his previous decisions, Zhang Dingshan immediately made a decision: "Disperse the surveillance power to other scientific categories. Since there are too many people, it is impossible to monitor them all. I think the surveillance power should be concentrated on a few Focus on key categories.”

The key categories are those subjects that are extremely important for pioneering the wilderness after the end of the world, such as breeding, agriculture, and medicine.

As for the remaining non-key subjects, although it is almost foreseeable that there will be suspects, under the current circumstances, we can only give up.

There is no way around it.

"I agree."

At this time, Lu Qingliang's expression turned gloomy.

"We shouldn't have to keep an eye on them anymore."

"oh?"

Lu Ming was filled with surprise.

"I was compiling the list and gathering information when I discovered this."

Lu Qingliang transferred some files to the video conference room. Lu Ming opened one of them and was immediately shocked after taking a look at it.

"Receipt regarding the acceptance of Lu Wenxue's disappearance case.

At 10:17 a.m. on October 21, our bureau received a report from Liu Chunfang (female, wife of a missing person; place of origin XXXX, age 49, ID number: 130XXXX...) saying that her husband left for work yesterday morning He disappeared after that and has been out of contact for more than 24 hours.

After preliminary investigation, our bureau confirmed that Lu Wenxue was missing. At present, forces have been mobilized to carry out follow-up investigations.

XXX Public Security Bureau. "

Lu Wenxue is a mechanical expert. He has profound knowledge in machine tool design and manufacturing. Currently working in a mechanical research institute.

He is one of the more important suspected targets on the list drawn up by the second operation team.

Now, he is missing.

If just one person is missing, it may not mean anything. but……

"Receipt of acceptance of Wen Yancheng's disappearance case.

At 10:07 pm on October 20, our bureau received a report from Wen Zheng (male, father of the missing person; place of origin XXXX, age 69, ID number 130XXXX...) saying that his son went out to buy groceries and then returned. Didn't come back, suspected to have disappeared.

After preliminary investigation, our bureau confirmed that Wen Yancheng was missing. At present, forces have been mobilized to carry out follow-up investigations.

XXX Public Security Bureau. "

Wen Yancheng is an emergency surgical doctor. He is extremely proficient in dealing with first aid matters such as trauma, shock, and blood loss. And his theoretical research is extremely solid, and he has published more than a dozen papers on surgical emergency care, which has aroused many responses.

"Receipt regarding the acceptance of the case of Li Hui's disappearance.

Our bureau received a report from XX at 3 a.m. on October 21 that Li Hui was missing..."

Lu Ming looked at the document summary and saw that the local public security bureaus received reports and issued a total of 236 acceptance receipts.

This means that at this moment, at least 236 people have disappeared among the key monitoring list that our side has formulated with a total number of more than 10,000 people. However, the number of real missing people is definitely higher than this number.

Because not everyone notices that someone is missing and reports the case when someone around them has been missing for just over a day.

The number of people who are truly missing may even be twice this number, or even higher!

This is not normal, absolutely not normal.

There is no one on this list who has disappeared in the past few months. Now, about 5% of the people are missing, and the missing time is all concentrated in the two days or so before this moment and after the earthquake.

He Wei slapped the table hard, full of anger.

I don’t know if I am angry at the cunningness of the Doomsday Organization or at my own mistakes.

What a shame, our side didn't realize in advance the doomsday organization's plan to hide the truth. After the earthquake, we only focused our attention on senior intellectuals related to earthquakes and geology, wasting two precious days in vain!

Lu Ming felt a little ashamed.

He knew that He Wei was not targeting him. But he still felt like he wasn't doing his job.

He felt that he should have thought of this mistake earlier.

Zhang Dingshan slowly shook his head.

"This is not our mistake. Even if we were aware of this early on, there is no way we can monitor all of the more than 10,000 people. This will always happen. We have no way to deal with it."

Lu Qingliang nodded silently.

He Wei took a deep breath and calmed down her emotions.

Zhang Dingshan continued slowly: "This time, the Doomsday Organization's actions seem to be in a hurry... They didn't even cover up the previous ones and directly caused disappearances..."

He Wei narrowed her eyes slightly.

In a hurry, they stopped carrying out the previous cover-up actions and directly created a disappearance case. In addition, this action was unprecedentedly large-in the past, the number of people who committed a crime was no more than twenty or thirty at most. This time, there may be hundreds of people.

This most likely means that during this operation, the doomsday organization will most likely reveal many flaws.

The time is tight, the task is heavy, and there are many people involved, the possibility of leaving loopholes will increase. This is a very simple judgment to make.

"Go check the families and living and working circles of these missing persons. Maybe there will be clues."

"good."

Before conducting a comprehensive investigation, the first thing that needs to be done is to further screen and count all missing persons.

This involves more than 10,000 people, but the work is not complicated or difficult.

Lu Qingliang directly disassembled the list of more than 10,000 people into hundreds of copies according to the people's place of origin and work unit, and then sent the disassembled list directly to the city or work unit of the target person, and then Verification by local security personnel.

Those who can be contacted are naturally not missing. If you can't contact them, do a preliminary investigation and it will be immediately clear whether they are missing.

So, just two hours later, all the missing persons were screened out.

In addition to the missing persons who had already reported the case and been accepted by the Public Security Bureau, another 225 missing persons were screened out.

These people are all people who have been missing for too short a time and have not been noticed by those around them.

In this way, adding the two together, the total number of missing people increased to 461.

A full 461 people are missing!

This move is not a big one. However, because the missing persons were scattered in different places, belonged to different industries, and had no overlap with each other, no organization noticed anything unusual about this disappearance before the second operation team.

After all, in normal life, a large number of people disappear every day.

According to statistics, on average every day, at least tens of thousands of people go missing among the world's nearly 10 billion people.

Of course, a large number of these missing people will reappear in the coming period. But a considerable part of them will disappear forever and never come back.

In this way, the 461 people who disappeared this time are inconspicuous compared to the tens of thousands of people who disappear on average every day and will not attract anyone's attention.

But now, the situation is naturally different.

After tallying up the list of missing persons, Lu Qingliang still stayed behind to provide logistical support. Zhang Dingshan, He Wei, and Lu Ming all mobilized and immediately rushed to various cities as quickly as possible and set up a command center to jointly coordinate the matter. Investigation of up to 461 missing cases.

The city where the missing person was located immediately set up a task force under the orders of the three people and immediately started investigating the disappearance case. The missing person's wife, parents, children, subordinates, superiors, colleagues, friends, etc. were all brought into the sight of the task force and began to conduct inquiries.

The bank cards, medical treatment, Internet activities, surveillance of the missing persons, etc. were all also mobilized.

The focus of the investigation is on whether the missing person behaved abnormally before his disappearance.

As speculated before - the time is tight, the task is heavy and the number of people is large, the doomsday organization will inevitably reveal flaws in this last deadline prophecy. Sure enough, after the comprehensive investigation began, many clues immediately emerged.

In a task force command center somewhere, Lu Ming saw an interrogation video reported by a security guard in another city.

In the picture, a well-maintained but slightly haggard middle-aged woman, about 40 years old, is being questioned by the security guard.

"Name?"

"Zhang Xue."

"age?"

"43 years old."

After a period of routine questioning, the interrogation finally got down to business.

"Did your husband behave in any unusual way before he disappeared?"

Lu Ming saw Zhang Xue's expression full of fear.

"Someone has captured him! Someone has captured Lao Wang! You must save him, save him!"

"Ms. Zhang, please rest assured that we will do our best to investigate this kidnapping case, rescue the victims, and arrest the criminals. Now, please cooperate with our inquiry. Why do you think someone arrested your husband?" gone?"

"He, he, I peeked at his diary, and he wrote in it that someone must have caught him, and by the way, he also talked about the end of the world..."

"Diary? Your husband has the habit of writing a diary?"

"yes."

"Where is that diary?"

"It's in the cabinet in the study."

"There may be important clues in this. We now need to send someone to your house to get this diary. Please don't worry, the entire process will be videotaped. If any items are damaged, we will compensate you in full."

"well……"

The screen switched. When I continued, one hour had passed as shown above.

At this moment, the security officer had a notebook in front of him.

Under the camera, the notebook was slowly opened, and the camera clearly showed the contents of the diary in front of Lu Ming.

"October 16th.

Today I met a madman who actually told me that at 10:17 am on November 19th, an asteroid will hit the earth and the end of the world will come. Only by entering the Ark Base can we escape this doomsday disaster and rebuild human civilization in the post-disaster world. And I, the lucky chosen one, am qualified to enter the Ark base.

Haha, if I hadn’t never won a prize, I might have believed it. If such a good thing really happened, how could it be my turn? Besides, it’s the end of the world. This old-fashioned scam is still used by people now? Is it because there are too many fools who are easy to deceive, so that scammers of this level can come out to do business?

I wasn't going to ignore him. But he also told me that at 3:07 pm on October 19, an earthquake measuring 7.2 on the Richter scale would occur in the Hongwei forest area. If the prophecy of the earthquake comes true, they will come and take me away, taking me to the Ark Base to survive the doomsday disaster in one month. He also warned me solemnly not to tell anyone else about the prophecy.

Ugh, that's ridiculous. But it can be regarded as adding some fun to today. What a boring life. "

This diary ends here. Then, in the camera lens, the security guard opened the second page.
