Chapter 156 Virus Transmission
"Lin Che, record that frequency band from before, then adjust it again, one frequency lower, and send it to her from the beginning to see if it synchronizes again."

Su Wanqing gave instructions swiftly and efficiently. Lin Che was busy adjusting the equipment, while Lu Zhao took out a pen to compare the data.

The pendant briefly emitted a faint glow as the scanning head pressed against it.

The girl with the childlike voice shrank back to her original position, her expression frozen. She gripped the blanket tightly, her body trembling slightly, and she repeated almost unconsciously, "The key, the key..."

As Lu Zhao made annotations, he turned his head and said, "Did you notice? It's not just her mechanically repeating what she says. She's entering a certain state, as if she has a special coupling with the signals inside the pendant. In my opinion, this thing isn't just any random signal controller."

He handed the terminal to Su Wanqing. “The pendant’s historical code has a very strong adaptive mechanism. Unlike ordinary bio-activation interfaces, it has some limitations and only reacts to specific individuals. I suspect that this thing is not a foreign product at all, but some kind of man-made ‘key,’ or that the research project itself is specifically designed for a certain type of individual with a special physique.”

Su Wanqing frowned, comparing Lu Zhao's terminal and the accessory, staring at the string of briefly jumping data on the screen.

Lin Che continued to adjust the parameters, trying to gauge the girl's reaction using other frequency bands.

He entered the new program while watching the displayed values. After several sets of pattern changes, the girl's physical fitness data sometimes rose sharply and sometimes dropped sharply.

Lu Zhao began to use the terminal to synchronize each peak of heart rate, nerve and muscle response.

Su Wanqing calmly said, "Record her EEG data, heart rate rhythm, and all vital signs, focusing on the sudden changes in data a few seconds before she says 'critical.' Then use alternating weak and strong pulses to see if only the resonance zone produces an effect."

Lin Che operated the equipment and carried out batch experiments in accordance with Su Wanqing's orders.

When the pendant was in the lowest mode and just touched the box wall, the girl's condition was stable. However, as soon as she encountered that special frequency, even if it only lasted for two or three seconds, her overall stats would fluctuate drastically.

Xiao Ran leaned against the emergency cabinet, his gaze fixed on the corridor. He frowned. "Captain Su, no matter how you adjust it, the infected over there become agitated as soon as there's any noise. They started acting strangely when the signal was turned off, and they've been changing ever since."

Lu Zhao turned to Su Wanqing, "Xiao Ran is right. The system's capabilities are limited right now. Once internal noise leaks out, it could be completely exposed. Not to mention there might be other forces outside watching us."

Su Wanqing refused to back down. She rubbed her wrist and said in a low voice, "But this experiment is the closest we've come to the answer so far. Stopping now would be giving up on the breakthrough. As long as the synchronous reaction is still under control, the testing cannot stop."

Xiao Ran lowered his voice, "If we don't evacuate, infected individuals could rush in at any time. Our location isn't far from the backup experimental site, so relocation will ensure our safety. If you really want the data, just take the equipment with you."

Su Wanqing shook her head indignantly, "We can't withdraw now. The experiment is at a critical stage, and the girl's body data hasn't been fully collected yet. Moving the location rashly will only cut off the clues."

Lin Che operated the terminal and said, "We can quickly export real-time data packets. As long as the mode remains the same, we can collect and analyze data along the way. The resonance effect of the accessory on her is far greater than the impact on ordinary infected individuals."

Lu Zhao continued to stare at the signal charts and added, "This girl's physiological parameters and the synchronization rate of the accessory's master control curve are higher than any other sample. Captain Su, if we really want to migrate, we need to find a node, otherwise the experiment will be a waste of time."

Su Wanqing composed herself, turned back to continue extracting data, closed the vital signs ring on the girl's wrist, and input some parameters to stabilize her condition.

The girl leaned against the wall, sweat beading on her forehead, but she could no longer repeat the word "key".

Lin Che transferred the terminal data to the cloud in real time, and then switched between the three core modes on the widget mode page.

He observed the coordinated changes in the waveband and the girl's data, then patted the table, saying, "There's a high point of resonance; don't approach it again in the short term."

Looking at the monitor in the main passage, Xiao Ran repeated, "The infected outside are becoming increasingly agitated. The data we just saw caused a much bigger commotion than before. No matter what you're planning to do, time is running out."

Su Wanqing ignored Xiao Ran and continued typing parameters on the screen. Her voice lowered, "Wait another ten minutes. Pack all the details about the synchronization of the band resonance and the girl's vital signs and make a backup. Complete the experiment first, then transfer the data."

Lu Zhao quickly modified the real-time comments, his finger hovering over the export button: "Data output can be done simultaneously, and automatically packaged and backed up when the specified node is reached."

Lin Che sped up his operations, trying to cycle through all the core frequency bands as much as possible.

Whenever the pattern approaches a previous high value, the girl's expression changes drastically.

She closed her eyes, her body began to tremble slightly, but she no longer uttered words of resistance.

Xiao Ran finally wrote the order into the communication book: "I'm ready to move at any time. Finish your experiment quickly."

Su Wanqing looked down at the latest set of records and casually made a mark on the terminal.

Lu Zhao stepped aside, imported all the preliminary analysis into the secondary terminal, and then glanced at the monitoring signal of the main channel.

Lin Che unplugged the data cable and put the pendant back into the isolation box. The girl with the childlike voice curled up even tighter, leaning against the corner without making a sound.

Lu Zhao zoomed in on the latest data on the terminal screen and compared it with several sets of historical experimental records.

He pursed his lips, brought the device close to the edge of the table, and shook the input data cable.

Su Wanqing leaned closer, standing beside him, her brows slightly furrowed.

"The parameters from the resonance band just now are very similar to the virus propagation code in the hidden partition of the file. Could you double-check if any templates were missing from this data?" Lu Zhao asked in a low voice.

"Retrieve records numbered 59 to 62 and compare them directly with the resonance data you just retrieved—use automated error checking."

Su Wanqing didn't leave, watching the curves on the screen rapidly stack up.

Lu Zhao frowned and nodded, then re-run the script. A few seconds later, a red array marker appeared on the screen.

He pressed the comparison button, circled the key value range detected, slowly moved the screen, and watched as the data and the number were highlighted in red by the system.

Lin Che called out from the monitoring point, "Team Leader Su, just as the pendant stopped, the external air sensor showed fluctuations. There was a slight increase in the virus level in the air at the air conditioning intake on the south side of the laboratory."

Su Wanqing immediately moved to the main monitoring station and adjusted the real-time air parameters to the maximum resolution.

She handed the terminal back to Lu Zhao and used the filtering tool to drag the monitoring curve to its peak.

"Lin Che, give me the data from the pendant's cycle test, and overlay it with the fluctuation curve from the air quality monitoring."

Su Wanqing pushed the virtual button a few times.

Soon, two sets of blue and green curves appeared on the large screen. Lin Che nodded and shook the probe in his hand, "I saw it. Whenever the resonance wave of the pendant shows a high value area, the air virus index rises accordingly. There were four times in total, with a time difference of less than five seconds."

Lu Zhao said in a low voice, "This is not an ordinary signal controller; it's a device that actively induces the distribution of the virus." Xiao Ran recorded the values, leaning against the side among several empty devices.

He frowned, stroking the magazine, and asked, "So, when we tested the pendant, we not only affected the girl herself, but also activated the virus's spread mechanism?"

Lin Che typed on the keyboard, consulting the documentation for the experimental equipment. "I used to think the device was just a signal generator, but now I suspect it also has some kind of built-in tool to regulate the spread of the virus. It's possible that the last local outbreak was triggered by a similar resonance point."

Su Wanqing tapped the corner of the table. "The key is not just a key; it's a core module used to control infected individuals and regulate viral activity."

Lu Zhao flipped through the hard drive in his hand. "This set of specific frequency parameters is not just for controlling the girl. They are exactly the same as the virus transmission blocks in the early files. All the key entry numbers overlap with the current collection segment. Now we can confirm that the virus relies on this set of control codes to change its form or enhance its external infectivity."

Lin Che turned his head and said, "I can retest the air outside the experimental area to see if it will continue to spread outward along a specific path. If we switch the device to a different mode, the virus activity area may shrink or expand."

Su Wanqing looked at Lu Zhao, "Continue extracting from the hidden partition database. Remember to pay attention to all the instructions mentioned by the experimental group regarding 'propagation parameters' and 'core delivery module.' Don't miss a single one." Her voice was extremely low.

Lu Zhao tapped the terminal, quickly packaged all the hidden data, and synchronized the files to the main database.

He watched the special bands on the screen jump up again, his lips tightened, and sent a new set of test values ​​to the cloud.

Lin Che continued operating the equipment, using the filter processor to monitor environmental changes. "Three new peaks in viral particle activity have been detected. Each one coincides perfectly with the peak of the attached data. If we keep trying like this, the infected outside will definitely notice."

Su Wanqing simply nodded and moved the master control data to the new dataset.

Her gaze lingered on the waveband distribution, her face expressionless.

"Continue exporting all propagation parameters when the accessory and the girl are synchronized. I need to compare the reverse curve to see if I can find a way to suppress the virus in reverse."

Lin Che said softly, "The principle might be: the pendant can adjust the boundary of viral activity. It raises the resonance zone, expanding the spread; it lowers it, narrowing it. It's like a dynamic gate. Ordinary signal modules don't have this function; only samples with the 'media pairing' tag can do it."

Lu Zhao recalled the early experimental instructions. "These old codes used a similar structure—they required a matching individual to be activated. After comparing the remaining samples, it was found that only a very small number could resonate and synchronize with the pendant. The child-voiced girl's physical characteristics matched the rare sequences in the samples."

Su Wanqing stared intently for a few moments, then switched the instrument to a higher protection level.

"After the virus returns to zero, it will gradually return to its original fluctuations, but the short-term transmission parameters will change depending on the settings."

The 'core delivery' is actually a dynamically modulated module, which only has the greatest impact on key individual phenomena.

Xiao Ran sat by the door, his ammunition box always by his side. He sighed, “It means that once the pendant’s frequency band is increased, the active factors in the air will surge up—even if the signal is turned off, we have to wait for them to calm down.”

Su Wanqing stood straight in front of the table, checking each item in the list.

She created a reverse simulation process in the terminal and tagged each synchronization.

"Try to reduce the negative power of the pendant to the limit, and then try to reduce it step by step to see if you can find the reverse guide zone."

Lin Che handed over a set of wireless transceiver modules, "We can set up a temporary isolation zone for small-scale simulations of reverse propagation schemes. All that's needed is for the pendant and the sample to synchronize instantly; the rest will be done through simulation calculations."

Su Wanqing did not answer, but kept switching the data comparison window with very few operations.

She whispered, "This is the next breakthrough point. The pendant itself is the key control link for virus transmission. Controlling it will give us hope of counterattacking."

While compiling statistics, Lu Zhao kept an eye on the virus transmission curve. "Only when a specific frequency and media synergy are met simultaneously will the pendant enter this highly active state. Let's try a few more modes and bring all the samples into the simulation process."

As the experimental data was steadily being exported, the girl with the childlike voice coughed twice and slowly opened her eyes.

She hunched her shoulders, looking somewhat tired. Lin Che promptly adjusted the vital signs monitor to rest mode and observed the changes in the data.

The girl glanced up at the lab table and said in a low voice, "I don't want to touch that anymore, I'm so tired."

Upon hearing this, Su Wanqing walked over, pulled the blanket up for the girl, and without saying much, simply pushed the pendant back to the furthest isolation area.

She instructed in a calm tone, "You don't need to come any closer. Take a rest. We've already collected all the data."

The girl nodded, turned around, and buried her head in her arms. Her face was pale, and she clearly didn't want to have any more contact with the pendant.

Lu Zhao then closed the main terminal and used the secondary device to temporarily store all the pre-plans for the reverse adjustment signals in the background.

"Team Leader Su, the reverse mode is ready for testing. We can test it anytime, just waiting for your notification."

Upon hearing this, Su Wanqing winked at Lu Zhao with her chin. She whispered, "Move faster, make backups for every step, and break down the parameters to each sample group. Prioritize perfecting the reverse frequency conversion instructions; don't let a few fluctuations confuse things."

Lu Zhao buried his head in his phone and typed quickly, "Understood."

Lin Che set up a new defense module in the interface area and simultaneously checked for suspicious trends in the channel detector.

Xiao Ran prepared backup magnetic control equipment to keep everyone focused.

The girl, wrapped in a blanket, gazed into the distance, her fingers unconsciously twisting the rough edge of the ornament. Finally, with a hint of dejection, she repeated, "Could you please stop making me touch the ornament?"

Su Wanqing paused for a few seconds, then nodded. "You don't need to touch it anymore. We won't let you try any more experiments that will make you uncomfortable. Just rest."

The girl silently shrank her body and closed her eyes tightly.

Lu Zhao wrote "Reversible Signal Simulation Project - First Version" in the background and sent it to Su Wanqing and Lin Che simultaneously.

He grinned, "Once the reverse signal scheme for the pendant is debugged, we can directly simulate it and experiment on the virus's range."

Su Wanqing simply nodded, offering no further comment. She stared at the main screen for a while longer, her mind preoccupied with all the preparation details for the upcoming reverse experiment.

Lu Zhao continued to add parameters. Lin Che organized the activity trajectory of air factors, pulled all the relevant band markers into a timeline, and saved it into an encrypted folder.

Xiao Ran swept the ammunition around, his movements not slowing down for a second. The entire experimental area was filled with low-frequency instrument noise and input command sounds.

Su Wanqing focused all her attention on the data and scheduling plan, silently preparing for all the procedures of the next stage of reverse experimentation, without making any unnecessary moves.
