Chapter 29
After that, Xia Xinghe talked a lot less. He just hugged the tablet and looked back at the pictures and videos of this live broadcast repeatedly without saying a word.
Qi Luyao was a little worried that he would fall into self-blame for Xu Yang's death, but when he saw Xia Xinghe's eyes clearly, he realized that he was worrying too much.
——At this time, the man's gaze was so calm that it was a little ruthless, reviewing some details over and over again, and quickly making annotations on the side of the video again and again.
Xia Xinghe was not immersed in the emotions of his comrades' sacrifice, but decisively picked himself out, and analyzed the post-war with an extremely rational standpoint.
Only then did Qi Luyao realize that he had really underestimated his growth.
At the stall where Qi Luyao let his thoughts run wild, Xia Xinghe suddenly said to the little fairie nestled beside him:
"Wangcai? Have you finished what you told me?"
That guy looked up at his mother, fluttered his wings a few times and flew to Xia Xinghe's side - as early as a week ago, Wangcai was full of mutual hostility towards Xia Xinghe.
Qi Luyao opened his eyes subconsciously: "You son of a bitch forgets his roots quickly enough."
Xia Xinghe obviously didn't have much energy to make fun of, he just reached out to catch the flying ball, then patted its stomach, and took out a small metal nugget from its storage box.
Xia Xinghe took the metal block in his hand and observed it: "Is it this?"
Wangcai nodded firmly under Qi Luyao's bewildered gaze.
After a long while, Qi Luyao got up with a [-]% pretentious? [-]% jealousy: "I'm quite redundant here, I'm leaving, I will give you two space to chat alone."
Only then did Xia Xinghe react belatedly, and finally there was a trace of vitality in his eyes: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Qi Luyao raised his eyebrows, crossed his arms, and waited for him to continue speaking.
Xia Xinghe met his eyes, suddenly he looked like a primary school student who made a mistake and was caught by the teacher. He dodged his eyes twice, and after a long time he thought about it and said:
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, because until now, I haven't figured it out myself..."
Qi Luyao saw that his brows were slightly frowned, and knew that he was a little anxious again, so he restrained his aggressive aura, and said as gently as possible:
"If it's not convenient for you to tell me, I will definitely not ask more questions, but if you are alone and can't figure it out, I think I can help you figure it out together."
When they are studying, they will often help each other to organize their thoughts like this.
Although the majors of the two are completely different, many of the thinking patterns in science and engineering are common, so in many cases, the two of them have targeted chats, which will bring about different thinking development.
Xia Xinghe raised his head, turned off all the machines with radio effects around him, and turned on the signal shielding device, then spread his notes in front of Qi Luyao:
"Xu Yang's death was designed by the government, including the bullet that killed him. From beginning to end, it was a play for the public."
Qi Luyao nodded thoughtfully - he had a hunch about this, so he was not too surprised when he heard this conclusion.
Xia Xinghe: "But what I want to discuss today is not this, but about the influence of electromagnetic waves on the behavior of zombies."
He jumps the video to several places marked in blue:
"There are two important times. The first is when the circuit is connected, and the zombies immediately go berserk. It looks like a stress response after being stimulated."
In the video, the screen suddenly lit up, and then the zombies began to appear restless, with a time difference of no more than five seconds.
"The second is that after the power outage, the group of zombies entered a short period of stagnation. I think this is a buffer period after the end of the stimulus."
The second clip is that after Luchai cut off the passage, the group of zombies suddenly stopped running, giving everyone time to escape.
Xia Xinghe looked up at Qi Luyao: "Although there are not enough samples and no comparisons, we can conclude from practice that our inference that 'electromagnetic waves may affect the behavior of zombies' may not be wrong."
Qi Luyao nodded, and continued to listen to Xia Xinghe's analysis.
Xia Xinghe: "In this battle, there are obviously opposing forces other than ordinary zombies. First of all, it is that deformed fusion monster."
The screen switched to the time when the troll first appeared in the camera. Watching carefully again, the two still felt uncontrollable nausea and nausea.
Qi Luyao looked at Xia Xinghe's slightly ugly face, and took the lead to take over the topic:
"I don't know much about the relationship between solar wind and geomagnetism, but Zhao Yiming later confirmed that out of the five components of this monster, four were members of the team who were conducting research in the laboratory that day, and the other may have attacked them. Zombies, so I think the fusion of the five of them may be an 'accident' to some extent."
Xia Xinghe nodded - judging from the scene he witnessed, it should be true. The five infected people were locked in a closed cabinet. Due to some "external force factors", they were deformed and fused, and finally became A strangely shaped monster.
It's just that if he was asked to speculate on the so-called "source of external force", he could only think of the huge artificial sun model not far from them.
He lowered his head, wrote down a line in his notes, circled it with a question mark, and jumped to the next playback node.
This is the picture of him and Xu Yang confronting the monster before fleeing. In the picture, several hovering robots flew upwards, and then, the monster that had been standing still suddenly exploded and swung straight towards Xia Xinghe .
Xia Xinghe frowned, stopped the frame at the point where Xu Yang was hit? One frame, lowered his eyes and analyzed:
"When the levitating robot went to the solar wind simulation laboratory on the fifth floor, the place where the monster first came, and after the shooting mission was completed, its actions stopped immediately. After that, Wangcai was also in its body? A metal plate meaning a signal receiver was found inside."
Qi Luyao looked at the small metal disc in his hand, his pupils gradually constricted, he could guess what kind of inference Xia Xinghe was going to do next.
Xia Xinghe said seriously: "I suspect that someone manipulated the levitating robot to activate the artificial sun, and then affected the monster's behavior through some mechanism."
This is the first time he has said with such certainty that "someone is manipulating the zombies". If murdering Lian Yang is at best considered shameless, then such an act is considered an enemy of all mankind.
Qi Luyao's breathing also became tense:
"Before? The opening of the gate obviously stimulated the action of the zombies. From the analysis of the safety performance of the general circuit, it was definitely activated by humans, not accidentally turned on."
He looked into Xia Xinghe's eyes and continued:
"But it's very difficult even for Luchai to invade the circuit. The only person who can really control the main circuit by turning on the switch is..."
The two looked at each other, and there was no need to say more about some things, as they understood everything in their hearts.
As if thinking of something, Qi Luyao frowned: "So, besides us, has anyone else known that electromagnetic waves can affect the actions of zombies?"
Xia Xinghe nodded, and switched the screen again: "This is the first time we talked about electromagnetic waves."
In the video, two people squatted in the corner of the conference room. The original radio was normal, and the sounds of conversation and fighting were clearly discernible, but after the picture was slightly distorted, it turned into a rustling noise.
"This is where I turned on the jammer." Xia Xinghe said, "Because there are mixed people watching the live broadcast, including the government, I don't want my speculation to be heard by them, and I don't want them to know that we have found the right direction. .”
——After all, it is an inference related to the action power of zombies. If it is used by someone with intentions, the consequences will be disastrous.
Qi Luyao raised his head, his gaze became deep: "Is it really done by the government?"
Xia Xinghe: "For the time being, they are the only ones who have enough motivation."
Qi Luyao still had some doubts on his expression:
"But...if they really have mastered such a technology, is it necessary to beat around the bush and use low-level methods like 'sacrificing soldiers' in exchange for public favor?"
Xia Xinghe's gaze also sank, but before he could say anything, Qi Luyao habitually went online again:
"I'm talking nonsense, it's what you think it is."
Xia Xinghe couldn't help laughing when he saw his appearance like this: "Just talk nonsense, I don't have any recordings here, so I'll take the blame."
Seeing Qi Luyao laughing, Xia Xinghe laughed at himself:
"Actually, the most suspicious thing is that with Alpha's per capita intelligence level, it's outrageous that the government can master this technology finely."
Qi Luyao was obviously not very good at answering such words, he just reached out and rubbed his head like a dog, and quickly skipped the topic:
"So, now this little disc is our only clue."
Xia Xinghe pondered: "You can let Lu Chai..."
Qi Luyao interrupted him: "No."
He looked at Xia Xinghe's slightly surprised eyes, and restrained the vigilance and aggression in his eyes:
"I think it's better not to tell anyone about this, it's not about Luchai."
Xia Xinghe stared at him for a long time, and did not continue to ask: "Okay."
In order to avoid suspicion caused by the long-term loss of contact, the two ended the conversation as soon as possible. The moment the shielding device was removed, Xia Xinghe's communicator was instantly flooded by a large number of messages.
Xia Xinghe had a sullen face: "Hello? Colonel Cheng?"
Cheng Peng: "What happened just now? Why did you lose contact?"
Xia Xinghe glanced at the innocent Wangcai, his face was neither red nor his heart skipped a beat: "It was Mr. Qi's follower pet robot that accidentally touched the shielding device, and it has been released now."
When Wangcai heard this, his face was full of anger and aggrieved than Dou E's, and he jumped up to take revenge on Xia Xinghe, but was pushed back into his arms by Qi Luyao's palm.
Cheng Peng: "Don't think too much about licensing Yang."
Xia Xinghe held the communicator with no expression on his face: "Yes."
Cheng Peng: "This operation was originally an opportunity we left for you to perform crimes and meritorious deeds, but you failed to make good use of it."
Xia Xinghe remained unmoved: "Yes."
Cheng Peng: "According to a discussion of the superiors, during this period of time, we will remove your position as the commander of the Army Mechanized Infantry Regiment, and the level of authority will remain unchanged for the time being. I hope you can reflect on it during this period."
On the one hand, Qi Luyao raised his head, looking at Xia Xinghe's frosty expression, he suddenly had a premonition that he didn't want to climb up his spine.
Cheng Peng: "Currently, Colonel Li Feng will take over the position of commander of the Army Mechanized Infantry Regiment. After the transfer to the stronghold, you can find time to connect the jobs."
Qi Luyao watched Xia Xinghe hang up the phone, and then watched what he said to himself, but he didn't hear clearly.
There are only four words "Colonel Li Feng" in his mind - this person is the "real colonel" in all his previous reincarnations.
Qi Luyao's only impression of him was that this Li Fengfeng led the team through a few short months, and finally died in a hostage rescue operation.
But what he cared about was not the life or death of this strange Alpha.
This person disappeared for a long time in this reincarnation. Just when Qi Luyao thought he would never appear again, he made a comeback with the title that belonged to him.
Qi Luyao's cold sweat broke out uncontrollably.
——Could it be that the time that has finally started to be reversed is going to go back to the original track?
The author has something to say: Li Feng: Hey!Did not expect it!
