Chapter 171 Fluctuation
Lu Zhao stared at the screen for a long time, his mouse clicking incessantly. He painstakingly restored the damaged database file line by line, afraid of missing any hidden data packets.
Lin Che was moving the equipment aside, while the girl with the childlike voice sat by the medicine box, looking through the small bag of saline solution in her hand.
The terminal on the table displayed fluctuating data curves. Lu Zhao suddenly pressed pause, his brows furrowing.
"Lin Che, come and take a look." Lu Zhao beckoned.
Lin Che approached with medical supplies, his face showing some fatigue.
"what's up?"
"Look here." Lu Zhao tapped the screen and brought up a set of monitoring data of the blood sample collection from the girl with the child's voice—after removing interfering variables, the remaining string of periodic curves jumped with unusual precision.
He clicked on the comparison table on the right, which showed the fluctuation curve of Lin Che's self-tested abilities during his hospitalization.
The two sets of data, one up and one down, were surprisingly in sync.
Lin Che looked down at the screen again, his facial muscles tightening slightly.
He asked, "You mean, the fluctuations in my superpowers overlap with her data?"
Lu Zhao tapped the time markers on the table. "Look here. Whenever your ability increases slightly, the level of that special element in Tong Yin's body also rises. And when you're at a low point, her data also drops significantly. We previously thought she was mostly affected by the attachments, but actually there's a synchronization layer between you."
Lin Che fell into a brief silence, his hand tracing the edge of the table. "Does she have a direct relationship with me?"
Hearing the voice, the girl with the childlike voice turned around alertly. "What's the relationship?"
Seeing that she was alright, Lu Zhao simply gestured for Lin Che to explain to her first.
Lin Che called the girl to the screen, thought for a moment, and said, "Do you remember the last few times I used my special ability to cool you down and when you felt comfortable, wasn't I right next to you?"
The girl gave a soft "hmm," sounding somewhat uneasy. "That day too, I felt very cold after you left."
"Moreover, the things she has are consistent with the results of your superpower analysis."
Lu Zhao laid out a set of bioenergy spectrum graphs. "The earliest data is from the night she had a high fever. You happened to be by her bedside, and your records are very close. After that, every time you were there, the values tended to stabilize. Try separating for a while and see how her vital signs change."
Lin Che put down his work and said to the girl with the childlike voice, "Go upstairs with Teacher Su for a while. I'll stay downstairs. Let's not get too close. I'm telling you, it's nothing, just an experiment."
The girl reluctantly agreed, but went anyway.
Ten minutes later, Lu Zhao updated the data. Sure enough, the values of the child-voiced girl's various elements fluctuated much more, and the concentration of the marked elements in Lin Che's body also became irregular, even showing a momentary reverse fluctuation.
“Don’t just look at the surface.” Lu Zhao stared at the data. “This is very similar to the implicit resonance effect under the influence of a biofield. The two of you are influencing each other. This means that the element she carries is only compatible with or complementary to special abilities like yours.”
Lin Che simply nodded and told Su Wanqing to call the girl back.
He sat expressionless at the table, his cuffs slightly clenched.
When the girl came back in, Lu Zhao immediately restarted the equipment and began to analyze the vital signs of both of them in real time.
Not long after we sat down together, the values stabilized again, and the two curves rose almost one after the other.
"What difference can you feel now?" Lu Zhao asked.
Lin Che shook his head. He checked the temperature of his palms and his own senses. "I don't feel anything special, but my mind is much clearer, and I have the illusion that my strength has returned."
The girl with the childlike voice lowered her head and sniffled, "I'm not that cold, my heart doesn't hurt, and my arms aren't shaking anymore."
At this point, Lu Zhao listed all the data from the control experiments side by side and extracted the central parameters.
"This is not a coincidence; your internal cycles of fluctuation correspond precisely to it."
My guess is that you may have similar origins, either complementing each other, or you may have undergone core regulation of the same material.
To determine whether there are homologous markers or experimental traces in the body, a thorough examination of gene fragments, cell metabolism, and energy field indicators is necessary.
Lin Che frowned and said, "I haven't had any experiments done since I was born, nor have I lost any medical records, and my family background is clear."
"Can you access your family's gene pool?" Lu Zhao stared at him. Lin Che shook his head. "It's impossible to find out everything. The data was all destroyed after the political upheaval. Most of it can only be found by the person himself."
Lu Zhao pointed to the girl with the childlike voice's wrist, where a miniature sensor was attached.
The data clues were quite unusual: "Her number format was very similar to that of a special experimental subject that we had seen in the database before, with two core fields, 'CY' and 'EDN', in a string of characters."
Su Wanqing had been studying the documents. She made two footsteps and came down the stairs.
He waved to the group, carrying a hammer in one hand and a heavy metal cabinet in the other.
"There's a cabinet in the storage room by the basement stairs, and it's locked."
Su Wanqing placed the metal cabinet on the ground. Because it was quite heavy, her breathing quickened slightly. "The furnishings are strange. The floor tile behind the cabinet is hollow, as if it was deliberately hidden."
Lu Zhao picked up a screwdriver and pried open the lock. Inside the cabinet were several file folders and a thick stack of envelopes.
The pages were yellowed, but the document was still relatively well-preserved. He took out two copies of the document and gave one to Su Wanqing and one to Lin Che.
"The document contains meeting minutes and a guest list. The documents are all numbered with the first letter, and the identities are not detailed, but the stamps at the end are military."
Lu Zhao pointed to a page and handed it to Su Wanqing, "This page mentions the vacation assets under the names of 'high-ranking military officers in the main urban area,' and also mentions that bodyguards are regularly dispatched on rotation for hierarchical management."
Lin Che quickly flipped through the folder and found that two pages in the corner were clamped very tightly.
He pulled it out and held it up to the light. The paper was very stiff, and the top line read "Eden Project - Project Data," the format of which matched the girl's number perfectly.
Su Wanqing put down the keychain in her hand, glanced at the child, and then looked at Lu Zhao, "Do you think this plan is related to her?"
Lu Zhao wasn't joking. "The number also contains 'EDN,' and the document also shows several sample structure diagrams, which almost match the distribution of her blood samples collected before."
Is Project Eden targeted at modifying a certain type of genetic element? Look at these meeting minutes; the keywords 'regulating core elements' and 'compatible organisms' appear repeatedly.
Lin Che pushed the diagram to Su Wanqing and fell into thought.
He picked up the data card on the table, pursed his lips, and said, "So, if they really are from the same source, do you think there might be other restrictive devices on her? Thoroughly examine my data and compare it with hers, and filter out all the anomalies."
Su Wanqing flipped through the remaining military envelopes in her hand, her eyes lowered.
She sorted through the documents describing the purpose of the resort one by one. The earliest one was a note approved by a deputy of a military region, specifying that the place should be used for non-official purposes, with a separate combination lock, and only for contact with "key guests".
"No wonder the security measures and external supply reserves in the main building are much greater than those in ordinary resorts. This is land used by high-ranking military officials without their knowledge," Su Wanqing whispered.
Lu Zhao found another list, which ended with the note "Long-term planned reception targets, special samples, personnel of unfiled projects", followed only by numerical numbers, without real names.
The girl with the childlike voice gently pinched the pendant around her neck as she hid in a corner to look at the stack of documents.
Seeing this, Su Wanqing pulled up the numbering chart and handed it to the child: "Do these numbers have anything to do with you?" The girl only glanced at it and immediately shook her head, her eyes filled with resistance.
Lin Che leaned against the edge of the table. "These numbers are experimental labels, not personal names. The military likes to use them."
Lu Zhao continued to complete the database structure, aggregated all verification results to the main terminal, and set up triple isolation.
"The most important thing now is to figure out the principle of wave synchronization, whether it is resonance or the same kind of origin. The phenomenon between you two either indicates that there were larger-scale experiments in the past, or that this special element can only be stable among a very small number of people."
Su Wanqing picked out the documents with the "Eden Project" watermark and gave them to him, saying, "Keep these records safe and put them in the isolation cabinet."
Starting tomorrow, you will focus all your efforts on gene and energy spectrum comparisons. Lin Che, you will do more self-checks and data feedback.
Lin Che simply nodded without saying anything else. He retreated to the entrance of the wine cellar, staring at the dust at the base of the wall, his hand twisting the opening of the first aid kit bag.
The girl with the childlike voice sat with her knees drawn up to her chest and asked Su Wanqing in a low voice, "Am I also with Teacher Lin—" She didn't finish her sentence, her voice very soft.
Su Wanqing patted her shoulder and said, "No rush, you and Lin Che will both get tested next time, and we'll talk about it when the results come out."
After locking the main terminal, Lu Zhao repeatedly checked the fluctuation data of the girl with the childlike voice today, and then glanced at the value of the special element remaining in Lin Che's body.
He began writing a new experimental plan, repeatedly typing the words "elemental synchronization and resonance" onto a draft.
