I don’t know if Aphra saw it, but Su Ming knew that Little Sugar Bean must have discovered the relationship between the protective clothing and the disappearance.
Looking back at the log video, at the beginning, when Dr. Adams and others arrived here, no one in the video was wearing protective clothing. At most, they wore a mask to block the odor in the air. This shows that they had done preliminary investigations in advance and believed that this
The air and water on the planet do not pose a hazard to the human body.
Apart from the fact that their work was not going well, they had not had any major problems in the first ten days, although they had not been able to eat well or sleep well.
Until the tenth day, a man put on protective clothing to check the underwater pump, and then disappeared.
So, the reason for his disappearance is that he did different things from his previous life. Write this down first.
Fully enclosed hazard protective suits, or space suits. There should be more than one of these in the team, because when going to explore dangerous areas or repair spacecraft in space, they usually work in groups of two or three to protect each other.
Correspondingly, space suits should also have this quantity.
But only the last piece worn by Dr. Adams remains in the camp site. Where did the other pieces go?
Su Ming had a hypothesis and conjecture, that is, after the first person disappeared, the doctor sent people down the well to find the person, but the people who went down the well wearing protective clothing also disappeared. This time, the excess protective clothing may have been washed away by the water.
Or just throw it away underground, and you will know after a while.
Then the only protective suit left in the camp is the doctor's, which is given to people who need to go to dangerous situations in turn.
In normal thinking, wearing protective clothing will provide additional protection, but in fact this is the problem.
On the 15th day of the diary, the next missing person is a robot. The body structure of a robot is completely different from that of a human. Why does it also disappear? Is there really a beast that eats both carbon-based organisms and silicon-based chips?
In fact, this is not the case. The disappearance of the robot needs to be seen in relation to what happens next.
What happened next was that on the 16th day, the spacecraft and communicator were mysteriously destroyed.
Looking at it this way, the problem becomes simple. The person who killed the robot and subsequently destroyed those things was Dr. Adams, because he knew what was here from beginning to end.
On the first day of recording, he said that he wanted to keep it secret, and invited everyone to take a photo in front of the camera. After the mysterious disappearance, he still insisted on staying here.
To him, the team members who were traveling with him were guinea pigs, used to test certain 'mechanisms'.
If the spacecraft is not broken, some team members will want to escape; if the communicator is not broken, someone may come to share his achievements, so this is what Dr. Adams wants to avoid.
Whoever is most beneficial to a thing is the person with the greatest suspicion. And when the doctor recorded this log of the destruction of the spacecraft, it was as if he was stating an ordinary thing, without worrying about how to leave or how to call for help.
.
This is so abnormal, probably only people who do bad things can be so calm.
Starting from the 17th day, internal strife began within the archaeological team. Many people also suspected that Adams was involved, but they did not have any evidence.
So this leads to everyone starting to think about themselves, being selfish and defensive about other people.
So what does it take to survive longer than others on a strange and dangerous planet? What are the basic needs of humans to survive in the wild?
The answer is basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation, where the word "transportation" represents the ability to move. This is out of the question. Their spaceship is broken, and there are only three items left.
There is no shortage of food and water here. Su Ming and Hangsha have both tasted that kind of fruit. It is very watery. Although it is bland, there is no problem in terms of nutrition. So there are two items left.
And 'living' means shelter. These simple houses are four small buildings. They don't believe that others can live in them. This will provide people with a strange sense of security, commonly known as out of sight, out of mind.
Just like living in a big city, if you don't see a strange neighbor, you won't think about whether he is a murderer. But at the critical moment, can the door and walls really stop the malicious attack?
Therefore, humans are visual animals, and their thoughts are often limited by what they see.
In short, among the necessary elements for survival, there is now only one remaining.
Clothes are equipment that provides warmth and defense to humans. Therefore, if someone among the team members wants to live longer than others, in their opinion, there is only one thing they need to collect most.
That is the last piece of protective clothing that can isolate you from dangerous environments.
Because the doctor was suspected of sabotaging the spacecraft, he probably started acting and deliberately did not participate in the fight for protective clothing. Instead, he recorded the people who disappeared after wearing protective clothing.
It wasn't until the last diary that Su Ming confirmed that everything had to do with the protective clothing.
On the thirtieth day, everyone else disappeared, and Dr. Adams seemed to go completely crazy, saying that something was calling him, and laughing like crazy, but it didn't really matter.
Don't just listen to what others say, but look to what they do.
Adams in the video finally put on the protective suit and walked up to the second floor and never came down again. Until today, Aphra picked up the empty shell.
Where is the second floor? The conference room, I have seen it for help. There is a large table, some chairs, and some ordinary scientific and technological office equipment.
Are there any dangerous environments out there that require wearing protective clothing?
Of course not, they are not hell lords, they still need to sit in a magma pool or hellfire for a meeting.
So the question is, why did Dr. Adams have to put on protective clothing and go up there? Is it true that only when he puts on protective clothing will the so-called ‘it’ come looking for people?
The function of protective clothing is to isolate temperature, provide internal oxygen circulation, and maintain the life of the carbon-based biological wearer.
These constitute the conditions for being ‘taken away’, and none of them is missing.
Combining all the clues, Su Ming actually understood the ins and outs of the matter while watching the video. The problem was that there was no suitable cannon fodder on hand to wear the protective clothing.
The Mechanical Crouching Dragon and Phoenix are useless, and the robots will not be selected; Aphra is useful, and Su Ming plans to throw her into the Warhammer Universe to dig the graves of the Necrons in the future.
He almost asked Contracia to send a criminal alien over to try. After all, no one knew what the consequences would be if they were taken away, so it was better not to do it first.
But just in time, the Millennium Falcon fell in front of us, and there were people wearing protective suits to serve as guinea pigs.
Princess Leia is the most suitable candidate, because she does not have much combat power, but her identity is very important. Many plans can be made with her, whether life or death.
There should be nothing down there, it's just a 'stage'. Aphra previously thought that anyone who went down the well would be destined to die, so it was purely a mistake in her reasoning to act without hesitation.
Su Ming asked Luke and others to go down the well first, while he and others followed, just to prove everyone's innocence when the princess disappeared. The dark and gloomy atmosphere underground was also very beneficial.
Of course, as one of the protagonists, she should have a pretty good life. Su Ming guessed that even if she disappeared, she would not die in a short time.
After all, in space operas, generally speaking, if a princess is kidnapped by bad guys, she will be safe and successfully rescued, probably.
