Paranormal incident investigation notes

ICU ward of Shanbei Hospital. He Wei and Lu Ming, both wearing full-body protective clothing, came to Zhang Dingshan's bed under the leadership of the doctor.

At this moment, Zhang Dingshan was lying on the hospital bed unconscious. He was covered with various surveillance equipment, and there were constant beeping sounds of unknown meaning on the display screen. The attending doctor and several caregivers and nurses stood nearby.

At this moment, Lu Ming's heart was full of sadness and depression.

After a long time, Lu Ming sighed silently, turned around, and stretched out his hand to the attending doctor.

"Excuse me, doctor. Chief Zhang will be taken care of by you from now on."

Although the doctor did not know the identities of Lu Ming and Zhang Dingshan, he could guess that their identities were unusual.

"Chief Lu, Chief He, don't worry. The patient's vital signs have been stable and there is no danger."

Lu Ming nodded and shook hands with several nurses and caregivers next to him. after. He took a step back and bowed to everyone.

Lu Ming knew clearly that given Zhang Dingshan's current situation, his life was probably not in danger. But long-term coma will still have adverse effects on the body. Such as bedsores and the like.

However, maintaining good health depends largely on nurses and caregivers.

"Chief Lu, don't worry, we will take good care of the patient."

After communicating with the doctors and nurses, Lu Ming and He Wei walked towards the door of the ward. After one last look at Zhang Dingshan, who was still unconscious, the two exited and gently closed the door.

After walking out of the hospital, He Weicai whispered: "How about sending the captain to the headquarters?"

The Logistics Department of the Planetary Security Department also has a subordinate hospital, which is dedicated to providing health protection for the staff of the Planetary Security Bureau. There, Zhang Dingshan should be better taken care of.

Lu Ming said: "Of course it would be good to send him. However, I don't know if the captain's condition at the moment is suitable for a long journey."

It is more than two thousand kilometers away from the capital city. Even by plane, it would take several hours. And along the way from the hospital to the airport, and then from the airport to the hospital, I don’t know how many times I have to struggle along the way.

"Let the doctors evaluate it."

Lu Ming thought for a while and nodded: "That's fine. Let Qing Liang contact the doctor in the logistics department."

After settling the matter, the two returned to their temporary residence in the manor. After Lu Qingliang and Li Wenhua's office confirmed the time, the two opened the video conference room.

The figures of Li Wenhua and Lu Qingliang each appeared in their own windows.

"I already know the general situation. Lu Ming, please tell me in detail again."

In the window, Li Wenhua's eyebrows were knitted and his expression was unusually solemn.

Lu Ming knew that in addition to the simple superior-subordinate relationship, Li Wenhua also had a good personal relationship with Zhang Dingshan. At this moment, something happened to Zhang Dingshan, and he must be very worried.

Lu Ming had already sorted out his thoughts, and now he recounted what happened in detail.

So Li Wenhua frowned even deeper.

He did not directly discuss the details of the case, but said: "Your second team is temporarily without a captain, and there is a vacancy. I think this case can be let to other teams to take over the follow-up investigation."

The leader of a team is the most important role in a team. Having lost their captain at this moment, Li Wenhua doubted the combat effectiveness of the second team at this moment.

A personal relationship is a personal relationship. When it comes to official matters, work should still be the priority.

He Wei raised her eyebrows and immediately said: "Director Li, I think our team has been investigating this case, and we are the most familiar with it. There is no need to hand it over to other teams."

Lu Ming also said: "I also think it is most appropriate for our team to continue this case."

"Is this a mutual decision between you?"

The three of them said at the same time: "Yes."

Before this report, the three had discussed the issue privately.

There is indeed a vacancy in the second operations team. Zhang Dingshan's coma objectively weakened the combat effectiveness of the second action team. but……

This case may involve Zhang Dingshan’s subsequent recovery. How can you feel comfortable putting this kind of thing in the hands of others?

You still have to take this case into your own hands. What's more, my team has been investigating the case from the beginning to the present, and many of the details cannot be understood without personal experience. No matter how detailed the work handover materials are, there will definitely be a lot of omissions. There are also certain difficulties for other teams to take over.

Publicly and privately, the three of them must continue to hold the power to handle this case in their hands.

Li Wenhua pondered for a moment and nodded slowly.

"That's fine. Then I'll continue to let you handle this case. However, it won't work if the snake has no head. The three of you can temporarily elect a captain and temporarily assume the decision-making power."

"I choose Lu Ming."

"Me too."

The three of them had discussed this issue privately before. The conclusion is that among the second action team, apart from Zhang Dingshan, Lu Ming is the most suitable person to temporarily assume the role of captain.

Lu Ming does not have enough leadership qualities or decisiveness to become the spiritual banner of the team. The role he is most suitable for is that of a team think tank. It's definitely not going to work for him to be captain for a long time. But it's still okay to hold on temporarily.

Lu Ming did his part.

He solemnly said to Li Wenhua: "Director Li, I will investigate this case with my teammates."

"good."

Li Wenhua respected the collective decision of Action Team 2 and approved Lu Ming's proposal to serve as the temporary captain.

"Lu Ming, tell me your analysis of the case at this moment."

Lu Ming pondered for a moment and said solemnly: "I think the reason why Captain Zhang has already discussed it in advance is that if he cannot tell the secret after he succeeds and becomes the leader, he must not force him to do so. He must put his own life and safety first. Under the premise, I still insist on telling the secret, which leads to the confrontation between my own will and the unknown force at this moment, causing me to become an idiot. I have no choice but to deeply anesthetize this situation. The most fundamental reason is still The captain believes that this secret is important enough. It is important enough that he must tell it even at the cost of his life."

This is indeed the only possible explanation for why Zhang Dingshan broke his promise. If the secret wasn't important enough, why should he?

Li Wenhua said slowly: "You have also discussed that if you cannot tell, you can direct the subsequent actions on your own without Dingshan telling the secret."

"Two possibilities. First, the captain feels that he does not have enough ability to make judgments and direct follow-up actions. Instead, he must speak out and rely on the collective strength to make a clear enough judgment.

But I think this is unlikely. The reason is simple: time was too short at the time. In such a short period of time, the captain should not be able to make such a definite judgment. "

No matter how difficult something is, between knowing it and coming to the conclusion that you are unable to solve it, there must be a process of thinking, trying, summarizing, and summarizing, right? Only by going through this process can a person be sure that he really cannot do it.

But obviously, Zhang Dingshan did not go through this process at that time.

Of course, this may also be because the thing is too difficult, so difficult that you can immediately come to the conclusion "I can't do it" without having to think about the process of trying it. But it's unlikely.

Li Wenhua nodded: "The second possibility?"

"The second possibility is that the unknown force is not only preventing the captain from telling this secret, but also preventing him from doing or stopping something based on it."

Lu Ming told his guess.

Li Wenhua had a thoughtful look on his face.

"So, after knowing this secret, Dingshan was no longer able to direct subsequent actions. As a last resort, he hoped to tell this secret so that you could do the things he could no longer do on his behalf. ?”

"yes."

"It is indeed possible. So, you prefer the second possibility?"

"yes."

Li Wenhua nodded lightly: "What do you think of the phrase 'The God of Destiny is resurrected'?"

This sentence was the information that Zhang Dingshan barely managed to convey at the cost of his life. This information cannot be taken too seriously.

"Based on the existing information, we can only believe that the fate of the fetus in the belly of a pregnant woman is the nutrient for the resurrection of this unknown being called the 'God of Destiny'. And its resurrection must not be a good thing."

"What are your thoughts on the God of Destiny?"

"I don't have any ideas at the moment. There is too little information right now, so I don't know what it is. But it won't be a regular thing."

Li Wenhua said: "Do you have any other ideas?"

Lu Ming said: "I think... although the information of 'The God of Destiny is resurrected' is important, and although it was conveyed by the captain at the cost of his life, this information should not be important. At least, it is not the most important."

"Um?"

At this moment, not only Li Wenhua, but also He Wei and Lu Qingliang were surprised.

On this point, Lu Ming had never communicated with the two of them before.

"How is this possible? If it is not the most important information, Captain..."

He Wei couldn't help but retort.

She saw the situation with her own eyes. In that case, under the premise that Zhang Dingshan's life was seriously threatened, instead of telling the most important information, he said some irrelevant things?

Even if we don't analyze it from this aspect, based on all the information on the entire case, "The God of Destiny is resurrected" involves the resurrection of an unknown existence, and this unknown existence is very likely to bring disaster to the human world. This information cannot be used in any case. It's not important, right?

Lu Ming said slowly: "I don't think the captain's will is strong enough to resist Veritaserum."

He Wei's eyes narrowed, as if she wanted to say something, but she closed her mouth the next moment.

Lu Ming's words inspired her, and she suddenly thought of something.

Looking at the entire incident, the handling of the previous leaders of the Destiny Organization has proven that Veritaserum cannot make people who are restricted by that unknown power tell secrets. This proves that the limiting power of that unknown force is more powerful than Veritaserum.

At least not less than Veritaserum.

But...it is impossible for a normal person's will to resist Veritaserum.

Is Zhang Dingshan a normal person?

of course.

His will is certainly stronger than that of ordinary people. Facing the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, he would not have any disturbance in his heart and could still maintain a certain degree of calmness. But no one would believe that Zhang Dingshan could withstand the truth serum.

That is impossible to do.

And, since Zhang Dingshan can't resist Veritaserum, why do you think Zhang Dingshan can tell the most important secret under the restrictions of that unknown power?

This is unreasonable.

"So, what do you think?"

"There are still two possibilities. One, the captain was already controlled by that force to a certain extent at that time. This information may be false."

"Fake?!"

Several people looked at each other. Even Li Wenhua couldn't help but look surprised.

This possibility has never been thought of by anyone before.

In this way, Zhang Dingshan's state at that time was not that he was trying to say something, but that he was trying to control himself not to say these words?

A few people thought for a moment and found to their horror that this logic could actually be established.

After all, there should be no difference in the external performance of the two situations between "trying to say something" and "trying not to say anything." At that time, I had preconceptions and subconsciously thought that Zhang Dingshan was going to say something.

Li Wenhua frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "What is the second possibility?"

"The second possibility is what I said before. The information about 'The God of Destiny is resurrected' is just a marginal and less important piece of information about the secret of the God of Destiny. Precisely because it is more The edge is less important, and the restrictions are not so serious. Only the captain can resist the restrictions of the unknown force and speak it out with his strong willpower."

Lu Ming's logic was rigorous and impeccable. It was only at this moment that He Wei and Lu Qingliang discovered that this piece of information that they had previously regarded as a treasure was either false or unimportant - if it was true, it must not be important.

"However, I personally prefer the second possibility. The reason is, first, I don't understand the meaning of the God of Destiny passing this false news to us. Is it misleading? I always feel that the possibility is not After all, we have almost no investigation ideas now. Second, I feel that it should be easier to control what you don’t say than to control what you say, right? "

Lu Ming's arguments are not very effective. At most it can only be said to be some personal tendencies.

Li Wenhua nodded slightly: "So, what are you going to do next?"

Lu Ming thought slowly and said slowly: "Director Li, I actually don't have any clear ideas for the next step. But generally speaking, I feel that the information of 'The God of Destiny is resurrected' should be used as the basis. Direction, try your best to investigate and see if you can find any clues."

I got home late today and coded a chapter in a hurry.

Happy New Year to everyone
