Chapter 40 File 4: Parallel Murder Room ([-])
When I passed by one of the staff members, I saw him looking at the computer monitor in front of his body, stretching his fingers towards the keyboard, but stopped less than one centimeter away from the keyboard.It looked like he was concentrating on observing the data, but what flickered on the monitor was a screensaver animation.And his movements are too weird, if I want to keep my body in this posture for a long time, I can't do it no matter what.

The other two were even weirder. It was obvious that they were talking, with smiles on their faces and gestures in their hands.But their smiles were frozen, and their movements were fixed there as if they had been poked into acupuncture points.

Are they dead?I felt a chill in my heart, but immediately denied my guess.Because I have a natural instinct to feel the "breath" of death and danger.Although these people are motionless, their sense of life is still very strong.

"Hurry up!" Gao Bingjian urged me in front, "Leave them alone, they can't see us."

I understand that those people must have been hypnotized, but what method can be used to hypnotize all these people who are working in an instant?The power of unions is really incredible.

Together we walked into a place similar to a central monitoring room. The large screen on the wall was displaying real-time satellite cloud images and various technical parameters. The star-studded lights on the equipment were flashing normally, but no one was doing it. Operation - because the operator has fallen to the ground.

This is a middle-aged man in his fifties, wearing a white work robe and wearing a badge on his chest. Judging from his age and location, he must be an important person in the meteorological center.

There is no need to use my special senses, anyone who sees his bluish-black complexion and the frozen expression of pain on his face should know that this person is dead.His body still maintained the last moment of movement before he died, his left hand was tightly grasped in front of his chest, his right hand was half-raised, and his index finger stretched out as if pointing at something.

Since his body was down, I couldn't figure out what he was pointing at, but I saw a white metal ring on his index finger - the deceased was a member of the union!
[-]. Evocation

In front of the corpse, sat an old man with gray hair and a skinny figure.He also wears a white mask on his face. Unlike others, there are no holes for the eyes on his mask, but a red bird-shaped pattern is drawn on it.

Is he a blind man?A waxy-yellow bamboo pole held in his hand seemed to prove this point.As soon as I saw his image, I seemed to think of someone in my heart.But who?I can't remember it for a while.

Everyone gathered around the deceased one after another. The eyes exposed from the mask were full of astonishment, nervousness, and suspicion, but no one made a sound.A group of people wearing indifferent faces watched a stiff corpse. This scene was as weird as a scene in a horror movie.

"Who was he? How did he die?" I couldn't help asking Gao Bingjian, isn't the emergency meeting called once in 120 years by the trade union just to let us visit a dead body?

In the test before joining the trade union, I witnessed many virtual deaths created by the trade union. Although that experience scared me enough, it was not really "scared to death" after all.But at this gathering, a member of the trade union actually died, and the nature of the two was completely different.

Did he die of disease, accident, or murder?Was it someone else who murdered him or the union itself?The results of each answer will be very different.

Gao Bingjian claimed to me that the trade union is a research organization that does not compete with the world.But if it's just a research organization, why is it kept so highly secretive?Their methods of acting are weird and unpredictable, and they possess some incredible superpowers.Thinking about it badly, if they want to use those abilities to engage in some shocking conspiracies, then who can resist?

If the deceased was murdered, it means that the trade union probably has enemies. How can an organization with enemies be called "inviolable against the world"?If it was an internal "execution", wouldn't an organization that used lynching to kill people be no different from a cult?
I suddenly realized that I was too naive and too easy to trust others. I joined rashly without knowing anything about the trade union.In any case, tonight I have to find out the true face of the trade union, and I don't want to become an accomplice to crime in a daze.

Gao Bingjian glared at me, motioning me not to ask random questions.

At this moment, the blind man suddenly said, "Is everyone here?"

A person stepped out from the crowd and said, "Jingsu eight people are in place." Then seven people automatically gathered around him.

Then another person came out and said: "Five people are in place in Guisu." He should have said five people, but only three people came to him, and there is one more?

The third person came out and said, "The eight people in Liusu are here."

The fourth person came out and said: "The seven people of Xingxiu are in place, the main star is dead." (Does the main star refer to the dead on earth?)
The fifth person came out and said, "The six people from Zhang and Su are here."

The sixth person came out and said, "There are 22 people in Yisu, all in place."

People automatically stood in their respective teams following their reports, leaving me, Gao Bingjian, and Stan alone.I can't help but feel sympathetic again. Everyone knows the team they belong to, but what about me?I am also a formal trade union member, where is my "destination"?

Fortunately, Gao Bingjian stood up and spoke at this time: "The three of you, Zhensu, are here."

I breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Gao Bingjian, Shi Dan, and I belonged to Zhensu. Although our group had the smallest number of people, it was fortunate that we were not made redundant.

Well, ghost, willow, star, Zhang, wing, and Zhen are all the names of the stars in the sky in ancient my country, belonging to the Suzaku seven constellations in the 28 constellations. It seems that the organization of the labor union is code-named by the stars in the sky.Now only Suzaku's seven constellations are in place, and Qinglong, Baihu, and Xuanwu's 21 constellations are in place. Where are they?

The blind man nodded, and then said: "Yesterday Xingxiu called me and said that he was about to make a very important discovery, but he passed away suddenly tonight. Since his death happened during this special period when the period of obliteration was approaching, we An emergency meeting must be called to find out the cause of his death. Now, let's begin!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a person with a black bag came up immediately. He quickly took off the clothes of the corpse, and then took out an instrument with a screen from the bag to scan the surface of the corpse.

Is he doing an autopsy?I wondered.Obviously, other people wanted to know the answer as much as I did, so they all gathered around in unison.

After the man scanned every part of the corpse, even the hair and hidden places such as the mouth, nostrils, and anus, he reported to the blind man: "There is no wound on the surface of the corpse, and there is no fracture."

After finishing speaking, he packed up his instruments and retreated, and then the second person came up.

The second person held the same black bag in his hand. He opened the bag, and inside it were needles, straws, test tubes, cotton swabs and other laboratory tools, as well as a small unknown instrument.

The man first used a needle to draw a small amount of blood from the tongue base of the corpse, and then injected the blood into the instrument.The indicator light on the instrument immediately began to flash rapidly, and within a minute, the indicator light stopped flashing. The man looked at the reading on the instrument and reported: "There is no poisoning reaction."

Since there was no trauma and no poisoning, judging from the reaction of the deceased clutching his chest, could it be that he died of a heart attack?But I feel that things will not be that simple. If he really died of illness, then the trade union would not be so mobilizing to call an emergency meeting to trace the cause of his death.

Then it was Gao Bingjian's turn to play. He opened the black bag he brought, and inside was a full set of gleaming dissection tools such as knives, scissors, drills, forceps, and saws.Gao Bingjian first spread out a blanket with a waterproof membrane, and the other two helped him lift the corpse onto the blanket.

Does he want to dissect the corpse in public?I feel a chill in my heart.In the past investigations of supernatural events, I have also seen some super disgusting carrion corpses, but I have never seen such an open chest and laparotomy.I was a little nervous when I thought of the bloody scene, but in order to understand the truth, I had to force myself to watch it.

I saw Gao Bingjian holding a small chainsaw, and with a "squeak", he cut off the chest of the corpse.The corpse should not have died for a long time, so there was still uncoagulated blood flowing out and soaking into the blanket under the body.But there were still some blood splashes splashed by the chainsaw and flew outside.

People who get too close will suffer, including me, and the jacket will be "hit" immediately.Looking at the dark red and smelly blood on the clothes, I almost spit it out.But Gao Bingjian was obviously used to these things. Without blinking, he used the pliers to open the chest cavity of the corpse, and then looked at the things inside with great interest.

"The cause of death is..." I found that Gao Bingjian frowned suddenly, even though he was wearing a mask, he still couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.It was obvious that he had discovered something, but he couldn't even believe it.

He put his hands into the bloody chest cavity, dug vigorously, and then took out something the size of a fist like pulling a carrot.

Everyone recognizes that thing when it is taken out, but a normal heart is dark red, but this heart is blue-purple, and it looks like it was thrown on the road and kicked by hundreds of people, the whole thing is out of shape .

"Heart..." Gao Bingjian thought for a while, but obviously couldn't find any medical terminology, so he finally had to say, "It seems to be scratched alive!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone could no longer keep calm.A corpse without any scars on the outside, but the heart has been scratched to pieces. How can this be done?If the deceased had been murdered, it was undoubtedly the most inconceivable form of murder.

The blind man sighed and said, "It seems that the worst has happened."

"Who did it?" Someone yelled, and then everyone was boiling.

"Quiet!" The blind man slapped the bamboo pole heavily on the ground, everyone fell silent in an instant, and then he said word by word, "I, we, will, know, know."

After he finished speaking, the bamboo pole in his hand began to tap the ground "tap-tat-tat-tat", the sound changed from light to heavy, from loose to tight, like invisible giant pillars rolling down mountains and seas. I was almost out of breath.

With the knocking of the bamboo pole, the corpse lying on the ground trembled slightly.I was taken aback, thinking that I had made a mistake, but when I took a closer look, I was right, the corpse was really moving.At the beginning, the body was just shaking, but then the limbs twitched like an electric shock.

evil Dead!I immediately remembered the case of the resurrection of the wax corpse that Tang Ke once told me - Tang Ke was examining the corpse in the morgue that night, when the sound of bamboo poles hitting the ground suddenly came from the corridor outside.The corpse suddenly jumped up and said the murderer's name.When he chased him out, he couldn't find the person who made the sound, but someone saw a blind man leaving quickly.

Is he the blind man who can bring the dead back to life?evil Dead!Could it be that the most incredible thing in the legend is about to happen before my eyes?
The corpse was like a puppet being pulled by strings, and it crawled up with difficulty. Even the lights in the control room flickered with the rhythm of the bamboo poles.The flickering light shone on the distorted face of the corpse, making it indescribably hideous and terrifying.

I was secretly startled, and involuntarily took a step back, for fear that he would suddenly pounce on me.

"Don't be afraid!" Gao Bingjian patted me on the shoulder lightly, "He is under control."

The corpse didn't suddenly go crazy and attack the living like in zombie movies, but raised its head and focused on the large display screen on the wall.

"There it is!" he said suddenly, maybe his voice was pleasantly surprised, but it sounded like it was coming from a broken radio, the tone was weird and harsh.The muscles on his face were twitching, I guess he wanted to laugh, but the stiff muscles couldn't show the expression they should have, and it looked weirder instead.

"Nan, Chong, Da, Bei, so strong, so strong, I found it, I finally found it!" His words really made me feel like I was falling into the clouds.Suzaku said that he made an important discovery before he died, and judging from his words, he really "found it", but what do those inexplicable words mean?

At this moment, the corpse suddenly turned his head, as if he heard something, then he stretched out his hand, as if picking up a phone in the air and put it to his ear.

I understand, the corpse must be repeating what happened before his death, who is calling this call, and is it related to his death?
At this moment, the corpse's face suddenly wrinkled up like a ball of waste paper. He grabbed his chest with one hand, and his body was precarious.

"Whose phone is it?" The blind man suddenly shouted, and the bamboo pole in his hand struck more intensively.

The corpse was about to fall down, but it struggled to stand up straight again. His teeth collided like crazy. In the sound of "clacking" teeth, everyone heard the word "forbidden" out of tune.

"Who is forbidden?" The blind man gave another low shout, but this low shout was already hoarse, as if he had exhausted all his strength.

The convulsions of the corpse had spread from the teeth to the whole body, but he still tried his best to turn his head. The moment he turned his face, I saw his dead fish-like eyes, and I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.

The corpse's hand flicked, but in the end it couldn't be lifted up, and then fell straight down.

"Oh!" The blind man groaned in pain, holding his head in his hands, his whole body trembling like chaff.After a long, long time, he stopped trembling, panting and said: "Unfortunately, the interference here is too strong, it has reached the limit!"

"But we know enough, it's the ban! The ban has appeared!" Someone suddenly yelled hysterically. At this moment, I saw panic in everyone's eyes.

"We were wrong, we were wrong, the forbidden legend is true!"

"Then what should we do?"

"Impossible, there must be a conspiracy!"

The atmosphere in the control room exploded like a spoonful of cold water being poured into a frying pan. Everyone couldn't wait to ask others for advice. Everyone's tone was so nervous and anxious, as if the end of the world was coming. .

"What is the ban?" I couldn't help but yelled.What exactly is "forbidden" that can make this organization that has existed for thousands of years and possesses mysterious power so panic?Everyone here must know the answer, only I was kept in the dark.

Those people looked at me with weird eyes, as if I was a different kind.

"He just joined, and he hasn't had time to be enlightened yet." Gao Bingjian explained to everyone, and then pulled me aside forcefully.

"It's just luck that you don't know about it. If you do, you will regret it just like them." Stan said coldly beside me.From what he said, it seems that knowing the forbidden secret is not a good thing, so is he regretting it now?
"What should we do now?" The host stars asked the blind man anxiously.

"Ask him!" The blind man suddenly raised the bamboo pole and pointed at me.

I was taken aback, couldn't he see it?Why can he point out my position so accurately, and he said to ask me?This is simply ridiculous, I still want to ask him a lot of questions in my stomach!
"Look with your eyes that can predict death, who here will be next?"
