Chapter 235 What is the soul(1/2)
Tokyo.
Outside the special care ward, Major Smith anxiously stamped out his cigarette butts, ignored the murderous look in the head nurse's eyes, and said to his colleagues: "You haven't negotiated clearly with the Japanese yet?"
"People from the embassy are working hard to get it"
"Strive for it? When do we need to fight for it from the Japanese? Tell them that my time is limited and I must take this person away tonight."
"This person's identity is very sensitive and he is not an ordinary technical expert..."
"I don't care who he is. The director only gave me 5 hours. He must appear in the special inspection room at the Okinawa base and undergo a comprehensive inspection."
"I'll ask again, don't be impatient, Major."
My colleague pushed open the door to the ward and entered. As soon as the door was opened, he heard the people inside talking nonsense in Japanese, which made him very excited.
cut!
Little devil!
If you don't get serious with him, he won't be honest.
Smith lit another cigarette. After waiting for a while but not getting a satisfactory result, he decisively informed the soldiers outside the hospital to break in.
The heavily armed American soldiers rushed into the hospital like robbers. Under the leadership of Smith, they broke into the ward and ignored the protests of the little devil who jumped up and down. They picked up the target - Koji Ikeda and left.
The military vehicle was waiting outside the hospital, and the movement attracted many Tokyo citizens to watch. Smith turned up the collar of his coat, put on his sunglasses, protected Koji Ikeda, who was being hooded all the way, and got into the military vehicle, and rushed towards the base.
Once people enter the base, nothing will happen to the Japanese.
Smith didn't care about any foreign affairs disputes. His mission was completed. Koji Ikeda entered the special inspection room of the base and began to conduct all-round inspections on him.
Outside the examination room, a group of medical experts were watching the video over and over again.
The tender fair scene captured with a mobile phone is very shaky. The center of the camera's focus is a handsome man sitting on the sofa. This man's eyes are like two black holes that absorb light in the camera lens. The optical lens cannot capture his facial features.
Details and expressions at the time.
Opposite this man is our victim, Koji Ikeda.
I saw only a faint shadow floating very clearly above his head. The lower body was still connected to his body, but the upper body was already making various movements of panic and confusion like an unstable time.
Although it was not the first time to see it, medical experts who rushed from the United States still suspected that it was an April Fool's Day joke. It must be an error in the mobile phone lens...
However, Major Smith's superior, Lieutenant Colonel Johnson, repeatedly emphasized that there was nothing wrong with the filming. More than one pair of eyes witnessed at the time that this man indeed had a suspected out-of-body phenomenon.
Oh buy it!
The experts who became interested asked to contact those who had experienced this supernatural event. As it happened, Koji Ikeda had completed a comprehensive examination. As a result, except for the somewhat worrying mental state, all indicators were normal.
"Mr. Ikeda, how did you feel at that time?"
"I...I don't remember."
"Think carefully, Mr. Ikeda, this is very important to us. Don't hide anything. You should know that your research institute cannot help you."
"I protest, I am a Japanese citizen, I am..."
"Let's be honest, Mr. Ikeda. If you cannot satisfy us, even if your government persuades the White House, we at CAI will not let you leave this room. You have no choice, Mr. Ikeda."
"..."
"You want to keep secrets for your own research institution? I have to say that you are really a patriot. I can promise you that after answering our questions truthfully, you can leave freely. At that time, you will repay your research
It’s not too late, you know, we are allies.”
"Okay, I say, you can ask."
"How did you feel at the time? How did it all happen?"
"I only heard one... one... a very... indescribable sound."
"Is that the sound!?"
Smith, who was accompanying him, pressed a switch with discernment, and a finger-snap that had been extracted from the scene and specially processed and restored appeared clearly in Ikeda's ears.
If Ikeda was struck by lightning, his whole body froze and his expression was frozen. Then a horrifying scene appeared. A shadow flickered on the surface of his body, and then struggled to float out of his head.
Oh, buy it!
The experts participating in the interrogation were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of their heads. The CAI intelligence officer Lieutenant Colonel suddenly jumped up and brought down the chair, as well as the documents and equipment on it, making a loud clatter.
"I, what's wrong with me, I'm like this, what just happened!?"
Unexpectedly, everything returned to normal in the next second. Ikeda woke up and forgot what had just happened. From the frightened and surprised eyes of the people around him, he realized that something bad had happened to him.
"Video!"
The lieutenant colonel's order made the technicians panic. After a while, the video just played on the screen, and it was frozen at the second when the abnormality occurred.
"Now you can tell us how you feel, Mr. Ikeda, come on, please satisfy our curiosity!"
"That voice..."
"Yes, we all heard that sound, what next?"
"Then I felt myself... I became lighter, and I had the illusion that I was taking off the heavy shackles and rising."
"That's not an illusion, Mr. Ikeda... Damn it, is that all? What else did you feel or hear?"
"No, I was awake at the time, and then I saw myself... I was scared and confused, and I didn't know what was wrong with me..."
"Where is that person?"
"who!?"
"That chief scientist!"
"He, he, he...ah, I remembered, he was not a human being. When I looked at him, it was as if I saw a black hole, a black hole with huge mass and gravity. I felt the pull from him, as if
I'm going to be swallowed up in the next second... That kind of fear, yes, yes... comes from the depths of my soul, it's so scary, so scary, woo woo..."
Seeing the man in his forties or fifties crying like a child, Smith felt horrified. He felt that there was an indescribable cold energy shrouding the room, as if there were a pair of invisible eyes looking directly through his body.
his heart.
Damn it!
"Is he an alien, right? Is it certain that the Chinese discovered his spaceship and made some kind of deal with him, so the Canaan game came about? It seems that the guesses of some gossip impurities are correct.
It's really ridiculous that something like this would happen today in the 21st century."
Smith did not participate in the subsequent interrogation. Late at night, he and other colleagues discussed quietly while compiling relevant information and the professional opinions of experts.
"A place similar to Area 51? God, the Chinese got a big deal this time. This is a threat to the United States, a huge threat. It depends on how the White House reacts."
"How to react? The Chinese are smelly and tough. They are not Iraq or Afghanistan. They will not dance with the baton of the White House."
"Politicians always have a way."
"I hope so. I can't imagine what will happen when the Chinese people completely digest the alien technology. They will rule the world and all of us will be their slaves!"
Smith looked at the photo of the chief scientific opinion on the portfolio.
In the photo, he was standing on the steps, turning around and waving and smiling at the camera.
He looks like an ordinary, gentle and harmless person. Who knows what is hidden under this gentle and harmless human appearance?
Then I remembered the finger snap I heard from the device.
Why did Koji Ikeda have such a big abnormal reaction, but everyone else was fine? Could it be that that person's power came here with Koji Ikeda, or was it some kind of unknown alien technology?
His doubts are also everyone's doubts. I don't know how the scientists diagnosed it. Such an incident that happened in full view of the public was undoubtedly a supernatural phenomenon.
I just don’t know if politicians can get the Chinese to hand over their secrets happily.
At the same time, the magic city.
Bei Gaoyang didn't even realize how much of a commotion a small spell cast and a little punishment caused.
He didn't tell him, and Yu Qingdong didn't even mention it.
The bidding meeting ended, he got what he wanted, and also completed a contact with other potential collaborators, which was a small warning to current collaborators.
After achieving the goal, it's time to go back.
I replenished the magic power reserve unit of the small building, and took some time before leaving to guide the apprentices on their homework questions.
My mentality has changed, and my ambivalence towards the apprentices has also weakened. This can be regarded as the first real teaching and solving of doubts, and the apprentices are flattered.
"Teacher, do people really have souls?"
One apprentice plucked up the courage to ask a digression.
"Soul? What do you think a soul is?"
"I……"
"The reason why you are you, not someone else, nor a pile of flesh and blood waiting to rot, is because your thoughts, your memories, your emotions, your desires, this is you. You said the soul is
What?"
"The soul...is the unity of these?"
"Well, tell me, do people have souls?"
