Chapter Eleven Joe

If the very serious doctor hadn't spread the news to his classmates, the people at the institute would never have known that there would be a virus outbreak. Then there would be no investigation, and no one would know what Aiweike City would do.

What will it develop into?

In addition, since the mobile phone signal in this city is gone, I don’t know if there is any network available? In Ling Xiao’s opinion, there should be no. This will delay the time to the maximum extent, so that outsiders have no chance to discover the problem, so the virus has a chance.

Follow the patients to other cities, and then spread again.

The only thing that's not quite right is that this virus attacks so quickly and so strongly. These two points about the virus directly make most people who are sick have no energy to get up, let alone drive out of the city, naturally.

It is impossible to go to other cities to survive. After all, the distance between cities is relatively long, and it is impossible to move without cars.

According to what those three people said, there is no gasoline in Aiweike City, so is there no gas at the gas station? No, there is no gas at the gas station, so you should buy some. If there is really no gas, someone must have taken away most of it.

Of gasoline, who would it be? And why would you do it? There always needs to be a reason.

Or... A bold idea came to Ling Xiao's mind: If there is not much gasoline, will the citizens start fighting? But most of the citizens are lying down now, so naturally they will not start fighting.

Could it be that someone was cheating? She couldn't help but think so.

In the end, she discovered that these were all unanswerable questions. There were no answers to these questions for the time being, unless the mastermind behind them could be found. In addition, Ling Xiao felt that this so-called virus should be a new species.

Ling Xiao got a headache when he thought about this possibility. If a new virus appeared, it would mean that no one knew anything, which meant that everything would have to start from scratch.

While she was thinking about a series of questions, she put on gloves and started to prepare to check the situation. She wanted to know what good things the research center had.

We should also take a good look at the research concepts of these researchers and see as soon as possible whether the things they store can be used in the current situation.

Since this virus is new, if you want to study it thoroughly, you don’t know how long it will take. Why not see if you have the key?

When Ling Xiao came in this time, he brought a lot of hard drives with him to copy the data so that he could take them back for further study.

Before she arrived, David gave her a list of people to investigate after discovering problems at the research center.

Ling Xiao read the relevant information on the plane and quickly got the focus.

The person she paid attention to was a researcher at the research center, named Qiao.

The original owner had also paid attention to him because he had read many papers he published.

You can tell at a glance that this person is someone who is dedicated to studying the subject.

David once wanted him to come to the institute.

Unexpectedly, he went to the research center.

The reason why David wanted to recruit him into the research institute.

It's because Joe's IQ belongs to a group with super high IQ.

Although he was born a commoner, he has the potential to become a top scholar.

It's a pity that the research center got there first and didn't know how to catch up with Qiao.

The original owner felt a little pity when he found out, and gradually became busy with his own affairs and didn't care about him.

After something might happen to the research center this time, David specially put a mark on Qiao's information.

Naturally, Ling Xiao quickly read the information and quickly understood what David meant. Something was indeed wrong.

You must know that after Qiao entered the research center, no papers appeared. This is something wrong and impossible no matter how you look at it.

I think back then, before Qiao graduated, he published several papers of great research value while he was still studying. Why did he suddenly lose them when he arrived at the research center?

According to the memory of the original owner, this research center is funded by a large consortium. Once you enter the research center, you will find that there are more things that can be studied and all the instruments are better.

In this case, more papers should be published, unless Qiao has already exhausted his talents. Is this possible? Ling Xiao found many papers published in journals with high impact factors in the data.

If you take a closer look, you will find that Joe's name still appears in the paper, but he is often the last author. You must know that there is only one author in the paper, and the second author is considered useful in many cases.

Then there must be something fishy in this. Ling Xiao looked at the names of these works and checked them. They were all the brains of the research center.

Bah! There is definitely something fishy about this! This is definitely not a coincidence. Ling Xiao does not think that all people engaged in scientific research are perfect people.

There has never been a shortage of people in this world who like to cheat and steal other people's achievements. High education does not mean high quality.

In fact, someone once co-wrote a book with his colleagues, and he finished the whole book in one chapter.

That chapter only had 8,000 words, and it was written very generally. Later, the co-writer made substantial revisions.

After correcting the mistakes, the number of words increased to more than 10,000. It can be said that a lot of things have been changed.

But the colleague still listed him as the second author. It is said that this colleague treated him very well.

Even after the book was published, that person happened to be transferred from his original university.

I took that book and went to another university and got a senior professional title.

When he mentioned this book to others, he never mentioned revising it.

Slandering former colleagues when mentioned to outsiders.

I wish I could take the credit for writing the book on myself.

I never mention that the main credit for this book belongs to my former colleagues.

It is vaguely revealed that the main chapters of the book were written by him alone.

I wish I could say that he was the first author of the book, not a former colleague.

It can be seen that not all high-level intellectuals are self-reliant, and some like to adopt ism.

Ling Xiao naturally felt that something had happened to Qiao and he had to give up his thesis.

But after one or two times, will Qiao always not care? On the one hand, he is pushing his limits, and on the other hand, he has been suppressing his feelings.

It's like magma rolling under the ground. You can't tell what's happening from the outside, but it's definitely not going to explode. Once it explodes, it's shocking.

There is a saying that goes well: A rabbit is eager to bite, and squeezing it blindly will only get revenge. In fact, if it were you, you wouldn't be able to bear it, and you would definitely find a way to get out of this situation.

Even after Ling Xiao brought Qiao in, he thought for a moment, maybe he would want to take revenge. After being exploited to this extent, it would be strange not to take revenge.

I don't know what would have happened if it were Qiao. After all, she is not Qiao, so this is a taste.

Only the person involved can feel the right and wrong, and no amount of empathy can be as good as my own feelings.

And if a person with a high IQ turns black, ordinary people will not be able to predict his thoughts at all.

Anyway, Ling Xiao could see Qiao's depression from the information and understood that it was his own child.

But they are regarded as resources for promotion, and all this will continue.

Of course, Ling Xiao admitted that this was more of her imagination and she didn't know whether it was true or not.

Is this guess wrong?

It can only be left to be verified later.

Anyway, I should have a chance to see if it is correct.

Ling Xiao decided to copy the contents of Qiao's computer later.

This was an intuition. She always felt that all these events were related to Qiao.

After entering the research center, Ling Xiao had already ruled out one possibility: the research was out of control.

First, Ling Xiao felt something was wrong after discovering that the mobile signal was missing and her phone was useless.

Then we discovered a trap targeting security personnel, found a body lying outside, and found the security door welded shut.

This was all filled with doubts, and then Trojan viruses and crawlers were discovered when intruding into the host, which all meant something was wrong.

Just when she was about to restore the data, she discovered that there was an extremely cruel trick in the host computer, and as soon as she restored it, she triggered a program that destroyed the entire institute.

Fortunately, Ling Xiao got the highest authority of the host and destroyed the program directly. All these proved that someone was behind all this, was it Qiao? Or someone else?

That's why Ling Xiao ruled out the possibility that the research was out of control. Generally, places where such viruses are researched pay close attention to safety. The original owner was a member of the research institute, which gave Ling Xiao the opportunity to see the internal structure of the research institute in person.

You must know that it is impossible for the research institute to be far away from the city. After all, it is impossible for researchers to be far away from the city. In order to safely study viruses, dual power supplies are required. In addition to a dedicated research cable, there is also a backup power supply.

In order to ensure the safety of the public, the air in the research center is disinfected again and again when it is discharged, and will not carry viruses unless there is a major accident.

During David's investigation, he found that there was no power outage in the research center. After asking the doctor, he also learned that there were no explosion warnings in the city.

Then it is impossible for the virus to get out of control during research and cause leakage problems. In fact, no matter how you look at it, a large number of viruses appear.

If it's true, it's more like someone deliberately spreading the virus, because the patients appear randomly.

Even the investigation by the treating doctor showed that those patients had no interaction with each other before.

The only thing they have in common is that they both live in Aiweike City, but they don't know each other.

They were all living well and thought that a festival was about to come.

As a result, the festival was ruined because they all fell ill.

Ling Xiao was happy after entering this place.

After obtaining the highest control of the research center's computers.

After discovering the problem, I scanned the intranet again for fear of being cheated.

You should know that sometimes there are logic bomb applets buried in computers that look normal.

A bad move might trick those of them who came in. For example, the destruction program just now was strangled by Ling Xiao.

And Ling Xiao had set an order that if there was any change, her consent would be required. She didn't want to die here while searching.

She also noticed that the robots controlling this place, even though they were not real robots, but so-called manipulators, could use various weapons to attack, and traces of drones were also found.

In fact, there are still relatively few drones today. Ling Xiao can be sure that the technological development of this world is not as good as the previous world.

Even so, she was still very careful, because what if an amazingly talented guy showed up?

In fact, there was once a scientific concept left by an outstanding person in the last century, which is still not outdated even now.

It can be seen that the overall technological development may not be too strong, but there are some outstanding people.

This does not prevent some outstanding people from being able to do everything extremely well across generations.

Ling Xiao warned herself never to look down on anyone.

Including that Joe.

After taking control of all hosts.

She just went to Joe's office with some excitement.

I plan to see if there are any data viruses, maybe there is, maybe not.

Ling Xiao quickly found Qiao's computer and opened it and found that there was a password on it.

If she went through normal channels, she should have used Joe's password, but how did she know?

Fortunately, she compiled a small software that can quickly detect what the password is.

She took out the USB flash drive and prepared to use the software to open Qiao's computer and see the secrets.

But before she could reach out her hand, she heard exclamations coming from outside.

It must be that they discovered something.

"Someone come quickly!"

Ling Xiao was shocked.

After putting away the USB flash drive, I quickly ran over to see what it was.

At this time, other people also ran over, all carrying guns.

It turned out that someone followed the blood stains to find the place and found a door.

After a lot of effort, he opened it and saw that it was an extremely cold icehouse.

I saw many corpses placed in the icehouse, each of them arranged in a unique shape.

Others also saw it. No wonder those people could not see their bodies alive or dead. It turned out that the corpses were all in here.

Ling Xiao was not very interested in ice storage. She used to think that all viruses and bacteria would die after zero temperature. Later, after studying medicine, she realized that this was not the case at all.

In many cases, the virus can remain active at minus 70 degrees Celsius, and will even resume infectivity as soon as the temperature returns to normal, so after that, Ling Xiao was not too worried about the freezer.

In addition, she didn't know if there would be anything in those corpses, so she quickly asked someone to close the door. Anyway, someone else should be responsible for their deaths.

They just ran in to take a look, but what they need most now is to know what the virus that is raging now looks like.

Ling Xiao was going to check Qiao's computer first. In fact, she didn't know if there was anything left.

If Joe could be more ruthless, he could physically destroy his computer's hard drive.

Then nothing would be left behind, and they would not gain much.

Now she is still a little worried, wondering who is responsible for this incident?

But what is certain is that the people here must be somewhat related.

So many security personnel died outside.

So many people died inside.

This all proves that people in the research center are causing trouble.

Fortunately, Joe did not destroy the hard drive, and there are still many things left.

After she opened it, she discovered that the password-protected document turned out to be Joe's diary.

When I read the first page, my first impression was that this Joe’s brain is different from that of a normal person. Does the diary need to be password protected?

But she soon felt that something was wrong. Why was the diary so well protected with a password? It was not worth it no matter how she looked at it.

Of course, there is also a possibility that he did it deliberately and wanted to see other people's jokes. Of course, there is also a possibility that he felt it was important.

In this regard, Ling Xiao thought for a moment: Should she continue reading now, or watch it at another time? Ling Xiao quickly made a decision.

Let's take a look at the diary of the biggest suspect. First of all, we find that Joe's diary does not have much literary talent and is dry.

As a person studying medicine, I have no requirements for literary talent, and the narrative is very straightforward.

Ling Xiao looked at it at a glance and found that Qiao's life was very boring.

His IQ is far higher than that of ordinary people, and he has no common language with many people.

Later he became obsessed with doing that kind of experimental research.

And when he saw the true appearance of those viruses under an electron microscope.
