Psychic assistant to the forensic doctor

Chapter 86: The Underground Laboratory

The iron plate was about five centimeters thick and one square meter in size. It was heavy at first, but due to years of corrosion, it was about to rot.Fang Rui pulled it lightly, and it shattered into several pieces. A piece of scrap iron fell into it, making a muffled sound.

After cleaning up the scrap iron, a hole appeared in their line of sight. Looking along the hole, they saw a few steps made of stone, and further down, they could only see a piece of darkness.

"It seems that this hole is quite deep." Fang Rui took a photo with his mobile phone, but he still couldn't see what was in the hole. "There won't be any treasure inside, right?" The illusion that they are here to dig for treasure.

However, they all knew in their hearts that this might be the real murder scene.For the children who were victimized, it was hell.

Cheng Jin felt very strange, those stone steps were quite finely crafted, who could build such a basement in this small town without making a sound?
Wen Zixian was a little excited, are they going to reveal this secret?

"Let's go back first and go in when we're ready!" Cheng Jin suggested.They don't know the situation in the cave, and it is not wise to go in hastily.Moreover, they need time to allow the air in the cave to be exchanged, otherwise they will easily suffocate due to lack of oxygen when entering.

In the meantime they went to buy some rope and a candle, and other supplies.

Fang Rui hung a lit candle with a rope, and slowly put it down. After 2 minutes, the candle still did not go out.

"There is enough oxygen inside, we can go in." This method was learned by Fang Rui on TV, and the candle will not go out, which proves that there is enough oxygen.

"Wait a minute," Cheng Jin stopped Fang Rui from going down, grabbed a rabbit who didn't know where he got it, and tied its hind legs with a rope, "Let it stay inside first Stay for a while."

He was afraid that there would be some poisonous gas inside. To ensure safety, they still needed to be more cautious.

The cute little white rabbit jumped down the narrow steps.After 5 minutes, through the rope, I could feel that the rabbit was still alive and kicking.

This proves that it should be safe inside, at least the air is not poisonous.

"Now we can go down," Cheng Jin said, with a serious expression, "Everyone, be careful."

So they walked in carefully along the narrow moss-covered stone steps with the flashlights they had just bought.

After only two steps, through the faint light of the flashlight, they saw a huge basement.Because there is less air flow here, the objects inside are less oxidized, and many objects still maintain their original appearance.

There were not as many stone steps as they had imagined, and after a while, they reached the ground.

At the top of the basement there are a few broken light tubes, the walls and the ground are very flat, even after so many years, there are still no weeds growing inside.But the things inside are a bit messy. It seems that the group of people from that year left in a hurry.

The first thing Cheng Jin noticed was a rectangular stone object similar to an anatomy table, with some tools scattered around it.

Although they were all a little rusty, Cheng Jin could still tell what these tools were at a glance: electric craniotomy saws, scalpels, brain knives—these are all anatomical tools needed to dissect a human head.

There are very few people who can use these tools, brain doctors, forensic doctors, and brain scientists.

"Cheng Fayi, this seems to be a modified brain locator?" Wen Zixian was surprised, although the device is very simple, but it can realize the basic positioning of brain regions, "However, this is usually only used in animal experiments .” Few scientists dare to use humans for experiments, which violates ethics and morals.

Cheng Jin glanced at the instrument, his eyes became deep.Neither brain doctors nor forensic doctors need to accurately locate brain regions, so there is only one kind of person left, brain scientists.

He glanced at Wen Zixian slightly, her father is a well-known neurocognitive scientist.

In a corner of the basement, Wen Zixian also found two machines, one is EEG (electroencephalogram) and the other is CT machine. She is familiar with them because she has operated them before.They are all brain imaging techniques, especially the latter, which is one of the effective means to study the relationship between local brain damage and psychological and behavioral disorders.

"Cheng Fayi, do you suspect that those people are scientists who study brain science?" Wen Zixian asked.

"Yes." From the beginning, Cheng Jin guessed like this: either he was a brain surgeon, or he was an extremist who studied brain science.

There are many examples of this in history.In order to study memory, a scientist once tricked an epileptic patient and cut off her temporal lobe, causing her to suffer from anterograde amnesia; for a long time, the way foreign countries treat schizophrenia is to remove their white matter This causes the patient to lose his emotions, like a walking dead...

"We must take Su Ye for an FMRI (functional magnetic resonance) when we go back." Wen Zixian felt that the matter was a bit serious, "There may be two possibilities for her being selected, one is that her brain structure is different from ordinary people. The other is that under their experiments, her brain structure is different from that of ordinary people."

Either way, it means that Su Ye is not a normal person.

Cheng Jin also thought of these, and he vaguely felt that it was the second type.Maybe it was because those people hadn't got the experimental results yet, so they refused to let Su Ye go.

Wen Zixian lowered her head, and her father warned her since she was a child that no matter what experiments she did, she must abide by ethics.You are a human being first and a scientist second.In my father's laboratory, even the mice used for experiments are treated kindly.So who is it that let innocent children be their guinea pigs?
She must find those people and make them punished.

Fang Rui was not interested in those weird instruments.He turned around and found a pile of carbonized wood in the southeast corner of the basement, which could be vaguely seen as part of a bookshelf.He felt that important objects should have been placed here, so he even sat on the bookshelf and burned it.

He rummaged through the ruins for a long time, and found a few shards of glass, which seemed to be part of some kind of glass instrument.He put it aside and continued to rummage, but saw a blue pill in a small transparent plastic bag, which was not burned because it was covered under a piece of glass.

"Look, what is this?" Fang Rui shouted.

A symbol, Ψ, is faintly drawn on the small blue pill.

"Could it be that Su Ye and those children are guinea pigs used to test medicine?" Wen Zixian guessed.

Cheng Jin examined the pill carefully, with a puzzled expression, and said calmly, "Take it back for testing to see what the ingredients are."

Their hearts became heavier.

"This symbol reminds me of ESP (Extra Sensory Perception)," Wen Zixian interrupted suddenly, "However, in our country, very few people study this field, let alone study the brain mechanism." Because of Su Ye's keen perception.

Extrasensory perception, commonly known as the sixth sense, includes thought transmission, specific vision, premonition, and telekinesis.It is almost a special function, but it is impossible to distinguish the authenticity, so it has been questioned and criticized by the scientific community.

"Isn't that pseudoscience?" Fang Rui likes to watch some strange things, and he has heard of this term before, and its reputation has always been bad.

"No, many people in foreign countries study it as a science." Wen Zixian replied, "But I haven't heard of any medicine that can make people have this ability. So, it shouldn't have anything to do with it!"

Cheng Jin did not express his opinion and continued to look for other clues.

An hour and a half passed, and apart from the pill, they found nothing special.

But it can't be said that they got nothing, at least they determined the identities of those people and their purpose.

　I feel that the relationship line has been written to collapse...
　　The case or something is completely based on brain holes...

　　Covering his face in shame.
