The Shadow of The Beginning

Chapter 209: Bacteria and crying

Views:

There are some posters of popular stars in Second Mate Paul's room, and he also bought a soft cloth sofa for his room.

Several people were sitting on Paul's sofa at this time, with a cup of black tea in front of each of them.

Before this conversation, Professor Robert assured everyone that he would keep the secret and provide assistance in this case.

What convinced Job Tran was what Professor Robert said:

“Human beings are the smallest creatures in this world, but we, such tiny creatures, underestimate ourselves and think we are the masters of this world.

In front of the true master, we are nothing."

After Professor Robert finished speaking, he began to introduce himself to everyone. If you don't listen carefully, you will miss the message that Professor Robert deliberately conveyed.

“You may not believe it, but I am a microbiologist, but I am also an anthropologist.

Do you know how many microorganisms are in your body

There are trillions of microbial cells hiding in your body. Whether it's your mouth, skin, or intestines, there is a whole community of microbes that influence how you digest food, help your immune system, and even affect your mood and behavior.

And these microorganisms are three times as numerous as human cells!

Do you know about the Black Death

In the original Black Death legend, the original pathogen was brought into the world by the plague god.

I am dedicated to studying these lovely microorganisms in order to explore the truth of this world.

So, I thought I could help you, and I promise I won’t reveal any information to anyone else.”

It seemed like a self-introduction from a mad scientist, but it actually contained information about the occult. Among those present, only Jobtran noticed the key word hidden in it by Professor Robert - the God of Plague.

This made Jobtran realize that the smiling professor in front of him might not be a simple person, and Jobtran also needed Professor Robert's assistance.

"Professor Robert, I understand that you have a strong desire to know the truth, but are you mentally prepared?"

asked Joe Butran seriously.

Paul glanced at Joe Boutrang and asked,

"Hey, are you sure you want to trust this old guy?"

Jobtran shrugged.

"I don't have any professional medical knowledge. If I get caught and arouse the suspicion of passengers, wouldn't that be even more troublesome

If Professor Robert is willing to join, I just need to help out."

At this time, Professor Robert picked up the teacup and took a sip, squinting his eyes and said,

"From the moment I deliberately stayed here, I was mentally prepared. The worst that could happen is that you would sink me into the sea to feed the fish, but it seems that my bet was right."

"Paul, you don't object?"

Joe Butran turned to Paul and asked.

"You decide. Now it's still a question where Aldridge is."

Paul said irritably.

Then Jobtran briefly told Professor Robert what happened on the ship, but Professor Robert did not make any statement and kept smiling, making people feel that he was unfathomable.

"Mr. Jobtran, if I were you, I would take off this exquisite pendant from your neck."

Professor Robert said as he took a sip of his tea.

After hearing this, Jobtran immediately took down the pebble.

"Professor Robert seems to have a special understanding of this pebble?"

"If you have read my paper on the pathogen hypothesis, I believe you will know that this stone has the energy of a pathogen.

Pathogens evolve and replicate into new germs, and the stone initially replicates gold, so what happens next

In your description it requires blood, but could it be that the next step is to require something else, like muscle tissue

If it doesn't eat for a long time, will it become actively aggressive

If you think about it this way, you will understand the threat of this stone."

Professor Robb gave a series of reasoning based on the pathogen hypothesis, while Jobtran nodded as he listened.

Jobtran put the pebbles into the iron box, put the box in his bag, and asked Professor Robert,

“According to my previous reasoning, this stone should be what the murderer wanted to find.

Since it is dangerous, why would the murderer go looking for it

To be honest, I am betting that the murderer will attach great importance to it and thus lead him out by wearing this stone in public. "

Professor Robert nodded and replied,

“A very smart choice.

As for the danger, it depends on how it is used.

There are countless bacteria in the intestines. Some of them are harmful when extracted individually, but they become probiotics when combined together.

Even the oxygen concentration in the air reaching a certain level can cause poisoning, so the key is the user, not the quality of the thing.

But now I believe it is not the time to discuss the danger of this thing, but we should immediately dispatch people to check the passengers' rooms.

There aren't many places where a living person can hide. After checking the public and employee areas, the rest of the work is easy."

"That makes sense, but we don't have enough manpower. I hope Professor Robert can help us out."

Paul spoke.

"One person per floor. I suggest you bring an assistant with you. He can help you during your visit."

Professor Robert stood up and wrote some professional words on a piece of paper and wrote the names of some equipment next to it.

"With these rhetoric and these simple devices, I believe we can fool them.

When this incident is over, Mr. Jobtran, I want to have a good talk with you."

"As you wish, Professor Robb."

The three of them left the room and began to investigate. In addition to checking whether there were any black marks on the soles of anyone's feet, they were also checking whether there was any possibility of hiding people in the room.

Jobtron brought Sif as his assistant, while Paul chose a crew member and Professor Robert selected one of Paul's confidants.

——

The renovation of the Munich Concert Hall has been completed overnight thanks to the hard work of the workers.

Today the grand opera will be performed again in the concert hall. Alphis and Evelya dressed in their best clothes and became the first invited guests.

The opera singer on the stage was singing the famous "The Magic Flute" with great effort, but Elphis didn't care about the singer's moving singing at all.

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Elphis leaned over to Evelia's ear and whispered softly.

Evelya nodded slightly and continued watching the opera performance.

Elphis stood up, buttoned up his suit, and walked out of the opera house alone.

There was someone waiting for him.

"How's it going?"

Elphis asked calmly.

“The invitations to the banquet have all been sent out, and all cadres at all levels will attend.

Invited guests will also be present.”

Frederick bent down and reported humbly.

“The invited guest must show up no matter what, understand

Even if you use cheap tricks, you can decide how to do it yourself."

After Elphis finished speaking, he went to the bathroom to wash his hands, shook them casually, and sat back in his seat.

"Master Nietzsche, welcome to join us."

Elphis muttered to himself with a half-smile.

"What are you talking about? Just enjoy the show."

Evelya whispered unhappily.

She didn't pay attention to Elphis's soliloquy, but was immersed in the world of the magic flute and was deeply moved.

What moved her was not the plot in The Magic Flute, but the grief-stricken singing of the actor on stage.

With her woman's intuition, Evelia could sense that Elphis had been feeling a little irritable these days.

The feeling of alienation that came and went made Evelya feel a little uneasy. At this moment, the actor's crying voice on the stage touched Evelya's uneasiness, and she wiped her tears silently.

Elphis, who was sitting next to him, did not react at all. There seemed to be a hint of indifference in his every move.

Sometimes, Evelya felt like an abandoned doll, a doll that was once pampered but was now thrown aside.

Thinking of this, Evelya burst into tears.

Seeing the looks everyone was giving Evelia, Elphis hurriedly comforted her.

"Hey, baby, what's wrong with you?"

Evelya threw herself into Elphis' arms with tears in her eyes, and said coquettishly,

"You've changed lately."

Elphis compromised reluctantly.

"I have never changed and I will always love you.

Come on, let's go home and talk it over?"

"Um."

Evelia nodded and replied softly.

Elphis took Evelia's hand and they left the concert hall.

The dim lights shone on the tiled road along the way, and no one noticed the helplessness, irritability and boredom on Elphis's face.

Elphis, who had a mission, had never fallen in love with Evelia. This was just his task, his mission, and this non-existent relationship would soon end.

But it's not time for a showdown yet, and Elphis still has to endure Evelia's nonsense and willfulness and make the appropriate response.

At this time, Elphis understood that as long as he could hold on, eternal glory would be right before his eyes.

He took Evelya back home and opened the mailbox to take a look.

“Boring flyer.”

Elphis threw the flyer in the mailbox into the trash can without even looking at it.

The leaflet said,

“Free fresh seafood!

Welcome to join our family! EOD!

Here you can get 100% trust!

Here you can feel the warmth of home!

We also offer tickets to the Munich Festival!

Contact Old Drunkard Hange, address: 38, Building 16, Bloomington Street. "

"Hermann, is it really okay for them to do this?"

Kirk was holding Einstar, who was crying loudly, and was trying to comfort him, and he looked at Herman, who looked helpless, with a complaining expression.

Hermann, in his pajamas, sat on the sofa, smoking his pipe, looking distressed.

"Honey, there's nothing we can do.

Eugene has tried everything to get us out, but to no avail."

Kirk walked to the window where the curtains were closed and gently opened a gap.

Looking out the window, you can see two men standing outside and chatting. They noticed Kirk's eyes and waved to him friendly.

Kirk immediately lowered the curtains and said to Herman,

“I felt like there were countless pairs of eyes staring at us, and they didn’t want us to leave at all!

Even the hotel owner waived our rent, so now when we go out we feel like monkeys in a cage!

The thought of such days is so terrifying that I can't bear it, Hermann!

"Complaining won't solve our problem, now we have to find a way to leave Milan in an honest way.

I think we can succeed if we do it stealthily. These people are still wearing a friendly veil, but who knows if their true nature is as evil as that crazy sheriff."

Herman grabbed his hair and tried his best to stay rational and think.

"What more reason do you need to go home?"

Kirk said unhappily,

"We haven't been outside for three days. God knows what color the sunlight looks like now."

"Baby, relax. Even though this is hard, I'm going to figure it out."

Hermann consoled.

"Think of a way, then why don't you try to get me a piano

My finger joints are rusty after not practicing for so many days."

Kirk finally managed to stop Albert from crying. At this time, Albert was no longer making a fuss because he was tired of crying.

"Wait a minute, what did you just say?"

Herman's eyes lit up at this time and he asked Kirk.

"I said my finger joints are going to rust!"

Kirk replied grumpily.

"No, no, the previous sentence!"

Herman stood up from the sofa and held Kirk's shoulders.

"This is very important, let's talk about it later."

Kirk was frightened by Herman's reaction, and said timidly,

"Get a piano?"

Hermann exclaimed, and jumped up with joy.

"That's it! I thought of it!"

Kirk was stunned, obviously not following Herman's logic.

"What did you think of?"

“Munich Festival!”

Hermann replied cheerfully.

“What happened to the music festival?”

Kirk asked confused.

“Baby, you are an invited guest of the music festival!

We just need Mr. Frederick to give me a call, or make an official invitation, and we can get out of this, right? ! "

Herman was about to go out to make a phone call, but Kirk grabbed him.

"What's wrong?"

Hermann asked in surprise.

"You're still in your pajamas? Don't you want to change into something else, my great genius?"

Kirk said with a smile.

"Hey, whatever! Geniuses have genius ways of doing things."

Hermann hummed a little tune happily and went out in his pajamas and cotton slippers.

"Tell Eugene the good news!"

Hermann thought.

He walked to Eugene's door, but found it wide open and everything inside was in a mess, as if someone had broken in.

Hermann walked into Eugene's room in confusion, and when he was walking towards the inner room, the door was suddenly closed!
