Chapter 198 Letter
Jiang Baimian didn't immediately pick up the dark green canvas backpack on the body and said to Shang Jianyao cautiously:
"Check around to see if there are any dangers that need to be eliminated."
The two divided the work and quickly confirmed that the bedroom, kitchen, living room, bathroom and other places were normal enough and there was no other body.
Moreover, they inferred from the remains of some carrion on the body that he was not an indigenous native of Taicheng, but should be a member of the scientific expedition team of Ding Ling's husband Ji Qiang.
After doing these things, Jiang Baimian put on gloves and put up the dark green canvas backpack between the chest, abdomen and thighs of the corpse.
After unzipping the zipper, she saw many documents and information.
Among them, several sheets of paper are folded neatly and placed on top.
Jiang Baimian put his backpack on the computer desk, picked up the pieces of paper, and spread it out.
The text on it is written in a dirt text, with strokes and strokes, neat work and extremely clear, and it seems that it is very worried that later generations will not understand.
Jiang Baimian signaled Shang Jianyao to be alert, and quickly browsed himself:
"I don't know who you will be when you see this letter, where you come from, and which force you belong to. It doesn't matter. What's important is that someone finally entered this mysterious city again and found us.
"My name is Lu Fuxing, a scientific researcher in the Salvation Army. When you see this letter, I should have been dead.
"I'm here to simply tell you the cause and effect of things and why I'm writing this letter to tell you, believe me, it's very important, and it may be related to how you and your companions escape from this mysterious city.
"More than two years ago, a significant earthquake occurred in the northeast of the ice field. After the earthquake, a weather station in which our Salvation Army observed the weather in the ice field found that some creations belonging to the old world civilization were floating in the river. Our Salvation Army had long surveyed that there were no urban ruins or abandoned towns along the way, and even further away.
"As a scientific research institute responsible for surveying the geological conditions and remains and resources of the ice field, my colleagues and I came to the ice field under the protection of a team of soldiers and planned to re-survey the area.
"The captain of our scientific expedition team is Chen Mingqiang. He not only has high academic achievements, but also is an awakened person.
"On the third day after entering the ice field, I felt uncomfortable and had a stomachache at night. I wanted to find the doctor who was with me to get some medicine. When I walked out of the tent, I found the edge of the bonfire. In the shadow between the two tents, Chen Mingqiang was wandering silently.
"I was shocked at that time, but fortunately I recognized him in time, otherwise I would definitely warn the soldiers on patrol.
"Chen Mingqiang also discovered me. He explained that he had some insomnia, so he came out to take a breather and think about some questions.
"I have no doubt that for those of us who do scientific research, similar things happen often.
"After that day, Chen Mingqiang became more and more strange. He was originally a cheerful person who liked to chat with the team members, but he became more and more silent. He often walked behind the team, as if he had become our shadow.
“When passing by Bei'an Lake rest point, he actually ordered us to camp out in the wild instead of going in and enjoying the clean beds and warm showers.
"Although our mission does have confidentiality requirements, it is not so strict that we cannot even enter the rest point of our own forces and cannot contact anyone. Many of my colleagues were puzzled at that time and were suppressed by Chen Mingqiang for obeying the order.
"In the end, the result we strived for was to send three people to the resting place to exchange supplies and make up for the previous consumption.
“After leaving Bei'an Lake, we continued to head to the scheduled location.
"For some reason, I feel that many people in the team are getting worse and worse. Like Chen Mingqiang, they become untalking and like to walk behind the team.
“I tried asking them, and I thought it was my responsibility to do so, and the answer I got was that I was in the wild for too long and my mood became depressed.
"This is indeed a problem that scientific expedition teams often encounter, but this time it happened very early.
"For a few days of surveying the river upstream, we found that, no, we saw a city, the ruins where you and your companions are now.
"In our original records, this area is the place where the old world suffered the most severe blows when it was destroyed, so that the entire terrain was distorted. The corresponding city should have long been sunk into the earth and buried by soil and boulders.
“But now, a very well-preserved ruins of the city are strangely emerging before us.
“To confirm that this is not a mirage, we bypassed the fault zone and reached the edge of Taicheng, yes, it was called Taicheng before the destruction of the Old World.
"That night, we shot a telegram to Wubei, informed of the situation, and waited for subsequent instructions.
"Early the next morning, everyone was suddenly woken up. Chen Mingqiang, who was in charge of the radio, told us that the superiors asked us to enter Taicheng and explore a place.
"Many colleagues and I are very puzzled. Our expertise is not to explore relics, and this should be left to a special team.
"However, as a qualified member of the Salvation Army, obeying orders has been integrated into my blood. After Chen Mingqiang showed the telegram sent by his superiors and had two colleagues and a soldier jointly certified, I no longer have any objections.
"Recalling afterwards, I suspect that the telegram was forged, because the three people who proved the whole thing had become weird before, silent and self-marginalized to a near-no sense of existence.
"He actually dared to forge the orders from his superiors.
"After entering Taicheng, we came to a hospital. Chen Mingqiang seemed to be very familiar with this place and took us directly into the nine-story building on the right.
“It is called ‘Renhui Hospital Vegetative Rehabilitation Center’.
"That was a very terrible place. Chen Mingqiang seemed to be using us as a tool to detect landmines, allowing many of my colleagues and I to enter different rooms respectively.
"Some people go crazy, some people become vegetative, some people get 'heartless disease' and are shot on the spot, some people become as strange as Chen Mingqiang and others, and some people suddenly rushed to the window, jumped down, and fell to death...
"I don't want to recall it anymore. This is a very cruel thing for me. In short, if you enter the Vegetative Rehabilitation Center of Renhui Hospital, don't open the door and enter the room casually.
"At the same time we lose, we also gain, and we found some very important documents that were beyond my imagination.
"The rest of the people were unwilling to enter those rooms again and had a conflict with Chen Mingqiang, including some soldiers, among which there were awakened people.
"Those who had become silent and strange stood on Chen Mingqiang's side, and fierce battle broke out between the two sides.
"We were at a disadvantage, and many people died. Finally, we found a chance and fled out of the building in a hurry.
"And Chen Mingqiang didn't catch up and chose to stay in that vegetative rehabilitation center.
"Two of us were separated during the escape, but the rest gathered together to retrieve the original vehicle, intending to leave Taicheng, return to the camp, and ask for help from our superiors.
"But after returning to the edge of the city, we were surprised to find that the road to the city was destroyed and the entire city was completely separated from the outside world.
"We wanted to try somewhere else, but gradually we found that our spirit was declining little by little, and our whole body became more and more tired. Not long after, the first 'unintentional person' among us was born.
“Then the second, the third.
“We began to suspect that everyone was infected with the ‘heartless disease’ virus and would sooner or later, and everyone fell into despair, as if they saw death step by step towards themselves.
"I am not too young and I am mentally prepared for this. I told them to write a suicide note before the disease broke out, and maybe there will be a chance for my family to see it in the future.
“I also took the opportunity to write this letter and sorted out the documents we obtained at the Vegetative Rehabilitation Center of Renhui Hospital.
"In the next time, the still sober person is responsible for solving the problem of colleagues, teammates, and the last sober person who has become 'heartless'.
"I didn't expect that I would live to the end. I thought the next content would be written by other colleagues.
"Before this, we had found paint and made the window and the surrounding walls red, so that people entering Taicheng could see it at a glance and found that there was something wrong here.
"If you are colleagues, you can go to other rooms on this floor to find the corpses of my colleagues and teammates. If not, just look at the following:
"The documents in the backpack are very important. I don't care whether they are obtained by our "Salvation Army" or other forces. They belong to all mankind.
"Friends who see this letter, if you can choose, please spread the contents of those documents, no matter which force it is for.
"The host behind the Vegetative Rehabilitation Center of Renhui Hospital is the Eighth Institute of the Old World. They are doing a very dangerous, very terrifying experiment involving the forbidden zones of gods and the new world!
"I know that the documents lack more detailed and important content, but they can unite all forces on the dust and seek the secret of being buried by the Eighth Institute.
"Finally, there are suicide notes left by my colleagues and teammates in the backpack. If you don't want to trouble, leave them. If you want, please hand them over to a member of the Savior Army and ask him to deliver the letter to the corresponding person.
"I'm very grateful that you and your companions have seen this. If you are also trapped in Taicheng, you can go to Renhui Hospital to find Chen Mingqiang's corpse. I suspect that he has hidden secrets about us entering Taicheng, and this is also the key to going out.
"I have mentioned in my letter before that the Vegetative Rehabilitation Center of Renhui Hospital is very dangerous. You probably have to choose two to three who are willing to sacrifice and dare to sacrifice.
"Okay, I feel that my spirit is getting more and more distracted, and my reason is getting less and less able to control my impulse. I plan to use my pistol to end my life.
"Please make sure to spread the contents of those documents so that a bright future for mankind can be realized.
"For all mankind!"
