"These numbers, I feel like latitude and longitude."
The sky was still dark in the middle of the night, and in the solemn meeting room, Gu Jun expressed his thoughts to everyone.
When he was a child, he had seen many charts of his parents, and there were always some coordinate numbers like this on them. He felt that the place in his dream was a deserted island hanging in the sea. He remembered that the Seabird went to various places in the sea for scientific research, went to Longkan, and also went to many places. Is the deserted island the target he was looking for
"I feel like the location of the deserted island in the dream," he said.
Nautical chart latitude and longitude? Yao Shinian, Professor Qin and others all changed their expressions, and Gu Jun's "feeling" couldn't be treated normally.
Until now, the research team has favored the numbers as a sort of countdown, since they appear in order from the largest to the smallest.
"I'll immediately ask everyone to focus on this direction and check this latitude carefully." Yao Shinian nodded and said, "The idea of latitude and longitude has been mentioned before, but there are only 74, 31, and 12. This is at most one latitude, which is not enough. make up a place."
To have a coordinate as detailed as here in the Ministry of Medicine, two lines accurate to degrees, minutes and seconds are required: longitude xx°xx′xx″, latitude xx°xx′xx″
If it is such a large area as "Dongzhou City", the latitude and longitude must be in degrees to degrees: xx°xx′- xx°xx′, xx°xx′- xx°xx′
And you have to figure out whether it is east longitude or west longitude, north latitude or south latitude.
However, the standard format is that positive degrees represent east longitude and north latitude, and negative degrees represent west longitude and south latitude, with latitude first.
If the current set of numbers means "74°31'12 north latitude", this latitude line is in the Arctic Ocean...
But without longitude, there is no way to locate a specific location.
In previous research work, they used military satellites to find this entire parallel line, and there are countless Iceland on it.
"Ajun, why do you think there is no longitude?" Yao Shinian asked.
Thinking about this question, Gu Jun had a flash of inspiration, "Could it be that the old dog uncle needs the nightmare disease epidemic to continue to expand before he can tell the longitude? Does the old dog uncle need to accumulate strength to say these numbers? "
When he said this, everyone's faces turned cold, and Professor Qin said solemnly: "Each set of numbers appears after at least a thousand patients, and the further you go to the back, the more patients there are... "
Gu Jun's heart sank immediately. If it was the latitude and longitude coordinates, how many patients would it take for the old dog to tell the other three sets of numbers
But why does the old dog uncle want to talk about a location and want to call others over? Why
All kinds of problems are hidden under the obscure fog, and it takes time to give any possible clues.
It's just that everyone who is so busy and lacks sleep is already feeling deeply tired, especially Professor Qin and Yao Shinian, the two sixty-year-olds. The swollen and black bags under the eyes are worrying. How long do you work.
After the meeting ended, Gu Jun was quarantined again after more than a month.
He temporarily lived in a special isolated single room in the psychological building, and was routinely cut off from communication. He had to be connected to the line before he could contact Professor Qin and Master Tong. It's not that everyone can't trust him, it's to prevent him from becoming delirium and madness out of control.
Gu Jun lay on the bed in the isolation room, letting himself rest and fall asleep amidst a myriad of emotions.
…
Three days passed, and the medical department became even busier.
In the middle of the night when Gu Jun was suspected to be ill, some patients who were put to sleep due to the experiment continued to dream of that nightmare, and the content of the dream was still the same.
The four patients who underwent lobotomy also went to sleep in order to test the effect of the operation.
However, Yang Jianming's mental state of the advanced patient did not improve after the operation. No one knew whether he fell asleep or dreamed. On the next morning, 18 hours after the operation, Yang Jianming died of multiple organ failure.
Mai Lei, a patient in the mid-term, still has nightmares, and his condition has not changed.
However, Chen Wenwei and Zou Xinyue, the two early stage patients, did not have that nightmare again for three consecutive days!
This is a situation that has research centers everywhere jubilant, and it seems to prove that by destroying the prefrontal lobe of the patient's brain in the early stages of the disease, it is indeed possible to sever the patient's spiritual connection with the mysterious being on the other side.
Although Chen Wenwei and Chen Wenwei still have symptoms similar to multiple system atrophy (MSA) and Parkinson's syndrome, compared with the early stage patients who did not undergo surgery, they can go from the early stage to the middle stage in three days, and the development speed of the two of them is suddenly slow. down.
The parapsychological research team at Master Tong has a hypothesis, "Their souls are not being swallowed up, just like a faucet is turned off. However, the spirit that has been lost and the nerves that have shrunk will not be able to recover immediately because of this. It may never recover."
Another bad situation is that the sequelae of lobotomy are everywhere. Both Chen Wenwei and Zou Xinyue showed a different kind of severe headache with a tearing feeling than before. Their temperaments also changed significantly. And very weird.
Even so, doctors now have at least one chance to treat it with the treatment of msa.
However, there is currently no specific treatment for msa, mainly for symptomatic treatment of autonomic dysfunction and Parkinson's syndrome.
It takes an average of 2 years for MSA patients to progress from the first symptom to Chen Wenwei's preoperative condition, and it only takes 5-7 days for nightmare disease.
The average time from the onset of MSA to death is 9 years. Now, with the condition of two people after surgery, it seems that they can last at least another year and a half.
"This is a major breakthrough." Professor Qin said to Gu Jun, somewhat relieved, "The operation is effective, which means that this disease can be cured."
It can be cured, which is what they want.
The Department of Medicine is already arranging for the second batch of patients to undergo surgery. The sooner the surgery is performed after the onset of the disease, the better, but a surgical method that can be popularized and applied on a large scale must be found.
The four Song Yilong who fell down in the first operation are still comatose in the intensive care unit after the operation, and this situation cannot happen again.
Gu Jun spent these three days in the isolation room, patiently listening to the news one by one, and rested to his fullest. Since that day, he has not had that dream again, nor has he had any clinical manifestations of the disease, which made Master Tong and the others heave a long sigh of relief.
New patients are still emerging, but new numbers have not yet been seen.
In the early morning of the fourth day, Gu Jun walked out of the isolation room, ending the isolation.
But still in the corridor, he saw that Tang Zhifeng, the leader of the psychological team who came to take him away, all had serious expressions, with a different sadness than before.
"Team Leader Tang, what's the matter?" Gu Jun's heart suddenly popped up, three days seemed like a lifetime, did someone have an accident...
At this moment, Peyani's diary flashed through his mind like a ghost.
