Upon seeing his target, Logic, Shi Qiang suppressed his curiosity towards Military Dog Daidai because he had come with a mission today.
"Mr. Logic!"
Shi Qiang took a breath and then spoke earnestly, "We've confirmed what you said, and the facts are indeed shocking. Could you reveal a bit more? Share some of your findings?"
Since the last time Logic showed them the so-called cosmic flicker, Shi Qiang didn't feel much at the time, as on the computer, the cosmic flicker was just a jagged wave pattern, and even wearing 3K glasses, all he saw was a burst of brilliant light patterns.
Brilliant though they were.
But perhaps they were just like the aurora, beautiful and momentary, a natural wonder, nothing more than that.
But then there was that sentence "you are an insect"...
Shi Qiang was conflicted inside.
He knew it was true, but he didn't want to believe it.
But as various experts arrived, meetings were held, and seeing his boss Chang Weisi's furrowed brows, Shi Qiang had to face a reality.
This method of cosmic flickering.
Earthlings couldn't do it.
There was only one other possibility.
Aliens!
Shi Qiang looked at Logic seriously, "Mr. Logic, please tell me in detail about your discovery, because this matter is of utmost importance, it's not about the interest of one person, but about all of Huaxia."
After saying that, he moved a small stool over, sat down next to Logic, and with great familiarity, pulled out a notebook, took out a pen, ready to record at any moment.
Logic, holding his head with his hand, spoke with a mix of bitterness and helplessness, "Actually, stumbling upon the evidence of aliens was an accident, because their presence was somewhat beyond human imagination, so I decided to observe them, and publish hundreds of papers, flood them with a barrage of papers!"
Flood with hundreds of papers?
Shi Qiang's mouth twitched, "Do all you cultured people play like this?"
A simple nonsense could be turned into hundreds of articles. That's really dragging it out.
Logic chuckled, "Otherwise, how do you think I got this mountain villa? A single paper is worth hundreds of thousands! As long as you write, there are national rewards, and you can apply for projects. Write a few hundred of them, and that's worth a few billion!"
Shi Qiang: ?
Wow, a corrupt official too!
At the very least, that's a third-class merit!
Take him away, take him away.
His hand was already on the handcuffs when he remembered that the other party was just imagining it, and hadn't made it a reality yet. He sighed on time, there went his chance at a third-class merit...
Shi Qiang felt a bit depressed, but still noted it down in his notebook. This was a potential third-class merit, maybe it would come in handy one day.
"To be honest, it was such a coincidence when I discovered their traces. That day I had nothing to do, had no inspiration for mathematics, it was too dry, so I hacked into America's Pentagon to check out their top-secret files..."
No inspiration for mathematics.
Became a hacker for some excitement.
This is quite beaver-like, isn't it?
At that moment, Shi Qiang could not help but be impressed. The inherent disdain he felt towards intellectuals vanished instantly, replaced by admiration in his heart.
He gave a thumbs up, "You're awesome!"
He had long found the Americans disagreeable.
To be able to sneak into someone's home and steal secrets, one must indeed be an incredibly impressive figure!
Without another word, Shi Qiang fumbled in his pocket and pulled out a cigarette he had swiped from Chang Weisi, offering it to Logic, "Big bro, please have a smoke!"
Before Logic could respond, Military Dog Daidai expressed its displeasure, "Smoking is harmful to health, smoking is harmful to health."
"Ah, I'm just smoking one," Shi Qiang actually began to sweet-talk the Military Dog Daidai, looking down, "What I'm smoking isn't a cigarette, it's a bullet shooting towards the enemy. The more I smoke, the more military funds the country gets. If you don't smoke and I don't smoke, where will the military funds come from?"
He jabbered nonsense with a straight face, "You're a military dog, the funding for your project was taken from the military budget, which we provide. So, if you think about it, I'm actually your daddy!"
Military Dog Daidai: (๐_๐)
Obviously, equipped with only a primary artificial intelligence, it couldn't quite grasp the logic, its eyes began to swirl, visibly perplexed.
This immediately made Shi Qiang burst into a snicker, dumb dog, so entertaining!
Logic rolled his eyes and continued to share his findings, "I discovered some inconsistencies in their files, including the investigation into those scientists' deaths. They were all connected to a woman from a certain organization."
"Boundary of Science's Shen Yufei!"
Shi Qiang was well aware of this woman; after all, she was the prime suspect. The investigation materials on her were enough to fill a whole box, detailing everything about her from birth to present.
He was eager to hear what Logic had found out about this woman, information they didn't know.
"That woman appears to be just an ordinary worker, but in reality, every trip she makes is purposeful, precisely locating each top scientist's residence and even understanding their routines, effortlessly meeting with them."
That sounds easy enough to say.
But in practice, it's incredibly difficult.
After all, ordinary people don't have the means to track down those top scientists, and might not even know who the leading experts in various fields are.
Else, they wouldn't be deceived by so-called 'experts' and 'returning scholars'.
Secondly, even if you know who the movers and shakers in the industry are, it's impossible to find their real-time residencies. These are not updated live; even the archives don't have them.
Furthermore, even if you find their real-time residences, you can't understand their real-time whereabouts, lifestyle habits, or work schedules.
After all, humans are not machines that work according to set schedules, in fixed locations. They might change their eating spot on a whim, deciding to dine here today and there tomorrow, or shop for groceries to cook at home.
The terrifying aspect of Shen Yufei...
Lies in her ability to effortlessly, in an extremely short time, precisely understand everyone and make contact with them.
This terror might be incomprehensible to the ordinary person, but for Shi Qiang, it was enough to make him gasp in shock.
He used to be a cop, after all.
A cop can't precisely locate someone from the masses, find their life, their daily habits.
It can only be done by spending a great deal of time on investigation.
This means that behind Shen Yufei there's a huge and precise intelligence network, yet in their investigations, they couldn't find a single clue.
"I was also investigating how she managed to do this. I thought she made contact online, so I crazily searched the net for any trace she might have left. But there was nothing, absolutely nothing!"
Logic feigned emotion in his gaze, "I even got depressed for quite a while, thinking there was someone out there better than me. Later, I discovered a pattern from those deceased scientists, the same thing I told you guys before, that physics does not exist. Then, I came up with a bold hypothesis."
"What?"
Logic looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with a touch of gravitas, "Ghosts. There is an invisible ghost in this world that the naked eye cannot observe!"
