Paranormal incident investigation notes

At this moment, people still know nothing about the specific identity of that "ancestor". After all, genetic tracing cannot be so detailed, and there are many omissions in historical records. Especially for ordinary people, it is unlikely that their names will be left in even family trees or local chronicles.

He may be just an ordinary farmer, living in an ordinary mountain village and spending an ordinary life. But in his body, for some reason, a gene mutated, generating a brand new gene that had never been seen in human history.

The mutation in this gene makes his hair thicker than that of other people. But I'm afraid no one will notice this kind of thing.

As he got married and started a family, his descendants also inherited this gene from him. As time went by, his descendants gradually multiplied, and more and more people spread out and migrated to all parts of the world.

This is actually just a very common thing, so common that no one would pay special attention to it. After all, this kind of thing happens almost every day. Because new genetic mutations occur all the time, they will also be passed down along with the birth of new life.

But that's how weird it is. It happened that the gene he mutated caused his descendants to bear a mysterious "curse" and became the target of Organization X.

Lu Ming had no idea, let alone any feelings, about his ancestor from who knows how many generations ago. It's hard to say resentment.

He cheered up: "If we only have these current information, it is still too general, and it is impossible to accurately determine who this ancestor of mine is, in which era he lived, and in which place he lived. The next step is to think about it. The only way is to further position it.”

The gene traceability work carried out at this stage is only at the scientific and technological level, and it only uses technical means to carry out general positioning. If we want to go into more detail, technological means alone will no longer suffice.

Some other means need to be added.

"This matter is simple." Lu Qingliang said immediately: "I will find some anthropology professors and ask them to bring more graduate students to treat this matter as a topic. Well, I also need to find some genetics professors. Experts, Professor Shi Guofu’s team is good. There must also be historians, archaeologists, and computer experts..."

The series of subjects reported by Lu Qingliang made Lu Ming slightly confused.

Lu Ming could barely understand the previous subjects such as anthropology, genetics, history, and archeology, but when it came to computer experts, he was a little unable to understand.

“What are you looking for a computer expert for?”

"Data modeling." Lu Qingliang said matter-of-factly: "After collecting genealogy, genealogy, and genetic data, of course we have to ask computer experts to make a migration model to analyze the data, so that we can be as close to the facts as possible."

Lu Ming didn't quite understand. But seeing that Lu Qingliang looked confident, he still chose to believe him.

Zhang Dingshan pondered for a moment and said: "Let's also activate the data of the human gene bank. Find the other people who have the gene that we don't know and collect data from them."

The more data there is, the more accurate the final positioning will be. This is a very simple truth.

He Wei hesitated a little: "Then, will there be too many people we have to protect?"

"I'll go make a report to the director and director." Zhang Dingshan said calmly: "Don't Organization

Zhang Dingshan was so aggressive that Lu Ming felt a little unsure. After all, this is just a slightly crazy and unreliable idea of ​​his.

Zhang Dingshan seemed to understand what he was thinking: "It is not a big deal to consume some resources, manpower and material resources."

Lu Ming was silent for a moment, and finally felt relieved.

Indeed, compared to a mysterious group that could produce an explosion as powerful as a nuclear explosion at any time, consuming some resources is really not a big deal.

As a result, the specific division of labor among the three people was quickly completed. After that, He Wei looked at Lu Ming: "Just wait for news in the base."

Lu Ming smiled bitterly again.

Living well and safely is his only job.

Time passes quickly. Under Zhang Dingshan's mobilization, many people gathered one after another.

The graduate students and professors were all very excited about this project, which was very well-funded and entirely funded by the Planetary Security Agency. Work began immediately upon arrival.

Through on-site visits to people, surveys, conversations, etc., a large amount of data was generated one after another, and together with further information obtained by Professor Shi Guofu using scientific and technological means, it was integrated into the analysis model built by computer experts. Specially hired archaeologists and historians are also conducting on-the-spot investigations within the defined range by collecting historical materials, visiting, and visiting.

With the accumulation of numerous data, the positioning of this "ancestor" has become increasingly accurate. Now, the time range has been shortened from the previous 200 years to about 80 years, and the region has been reduced from the previously abstract "southern foot of Taihang Mountain" to a county-level administrative unit called Woye.

After further work, the time range was finally determined to be 1500 AD to 1540 AD, which was only 40 years.

During these 40 years, he gave birth to his first boy and passed on this gene. Calculated based on the common childbearing age in ancient times, which is between 15 and 50 years old, his birth year is 1450 at the earliest and 1525 at the latest, that is, between the Zhengtong Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the Jiajing Emperor.

The living area is centered around a village called "Nanji", within a radius of ten kilometers.

This is the limit of what current technical means and data recording can achieve. Going further is basically impossible.

During this process, these three people from the Second Operation Team of the 13th Division of the Planetary Security Bureau also discovered several new disappearance cases. According to He Wei's previous proposal, "First identify the first generation inheritors, and then use this as a starting point to screen out their suspected descendants who have migrated to various parts of the world through various data analyses, and finally focus on screening out those with Hag.1 The three people also reviewed the idea of ​​​​"genetic people and kidnapping them".

The final result was that the three of them discovered that after confirming that the ancestor's living area was near Nanji Village and that his birth year was approximately 1450-1525 AD, they could actually identify this ancestor with the data they had on hand. Find the missing people!

This proves from a practical level that this solution is indeed feasible. This also proves that this is most likely the new method adopted by Organization X after its own large-scale "sociological experiment" and information blockade!

This is an extremely important clue. To a certain extent, the previously broken threads have been connected again, and a new situation has been opened.

But this also means a new problem arises.

"How did Organization X accurately locate this ancestor?"

This is a very strange thing.

Here in Operation Team 2, the three people have already mastered the lists of many people who have the gene. Under this premise, they are supplemented by numerous investigations, such as anthropology, sociology, computer science, archaeology, genetics, history, etc. , the "cause" of this ancestor was deduced from the final "result".

However, it is impossible for Organization After all, kidnapping talents is their ultimate goal.

However, the lists of these persons are the basis for all subsequent investigations and inferences. Without these lists, it would be impossible to locate this ancestor.

This leads to two possibilities. First, all the speculations made by the three members of the second action team, including Lu Ming, were wrong, and they were just the opposite of the cause. The new method adopted by Organization X is not what people think it is at all.

The second possibility is more terrifying. That is...

Organization X knew who this ancestor was from the beginning.

They don't have to do any traceability investigations, they know it from the beginning. Moreover, on the premise of knowing the detailed information of this ancestor, unlike Operation Team 2, who worked backwards from the results to deduce the causes, they directly calculated the results from the causes, and finally screened out the missing persons.

However, if it is the second possibility, what is so special about an ordinary person who is unknown in history that allows Organization X to master his information from the beginning?

This kind of speculation makes people's hearts beat faster.

After all, it is still a mystery what is so special about the Hag.1 gene that allows Organization X to be so persistent. By solving this mystery, the truth is almost clear.

And, if that ancestor really had some special characteristics that caused Organization

After a period of discussion, the three finally completed the division of tasks.

"I'm going to investigate these disappearances."

Zhang Dingshan took the initiative to undertake the most arduous, arduous and important tasks.

He Wei said: "If Organization An investigation has been conducted in the area around Nanji Village. I will go and verify this matter."

If clues are really found that Organization X conducted an investigation, then the fact that Organization

Lu Qingliang said: "I will collect and analyze the historical records of that period to see if anything noteworthy happened here during that period."

"Okay. Let's do it."
