I was mentally ill and was selected to participate in the strange rules talk

Chapter 582 The Disappearance of Mr. Peng

Wang Ju's order was like a spring breeze, quickly penetrating all levels and touching the intellectual elite on Blue Star.

Psychologists and sociologists responded quickly, gathering together for a heated discussion around the old lady's ant theory.

Some scholars began to write papers, trying to connect this theory with the phenomena of human society, looking for deeper meanings and possible applications.

Sure enough, the information delivered to Jiang Xiao went smoothly this time.

Ant theory?

Jiang Xiao couldn't help but nodded. He had to say that this theory was indeed awesome and could be applied very well.

Glancing at Shi Shi, who was still sleeping soundly, Jiang Xiao quietly got up and walked to the study nearby.

In the base, only Jiang Xiao can enjoy this kind of accommodation with two bedrooms and one living room.

He was sitting in the spacious study room, flipping through the information called "Ant Theory" in his hands, with a hint of contemplation in his eyes.

This is not only because of the innovative nature of the theory itself, but also because it reflects, to some extent, human beings' sense of powerlessness and humility in the face of mysterious forces.

Jiang Xiao knew very well that this theory was just a unilateral speculation by human beings about "god" without any empirical support.

But it fully reflects the insignificance of human beings in the face of the unknown.

This also made him think that no matter how high technology develops, human beings' understanding of the universe is always limited.

This feeling of powerlessness is especially strong when faced with concepts like God.

He closed the document gently, a trace of determination flashing in his eyes.

Jiang Xiao believes that the value of this theory lies not only in its academic research.

What's more, it can inspire people to think about the relationship between humans and supernatural forces, as well as humans' position in the universe.

He stood up, sorted out the documents on the table, and decided to discuss it with Mr. Peng.

However, Jiang Xiao's footsteps stopped abruptly at the door.

The figure of the middle-aged uncle came into view. Like the doctor, he was a student of Mr. Peng.

They were still discussing problems together during the day, and the uncle was still energetic and determined at that time.

But now, his eyes are red, the wrinkles on his face seem to have deepened a lot in just a few hours, and his whole person feels old and haggard.

Jiang Xiao's heart tightened. He could feel the unspeakable heavy atmosphere on his uncle's body, as if some bad news was about to come.

The middle-aged uncle looked at Jiang Xiao, his lips trembling, as if he was trying to control his emotions, but that effort soon came to nothing.

With an uncontrollable trembling in his voice, he finally spoke, and every word was like a heavy hammer hitting Jiang Xiao's heart.

"Mr. Peng is dead."

This sudden bad news made it difficult for Jiang Xiao to react for a while.

"What did you say?"

Jiang Xiao's voice was almost a whisper, and he couldn't believe his ears.

He knew that once he conducted in-depth research, it would definitely not end well, but it would be too fast.

Tears finally burst out of the middle-aged uncle's eyes, and he said tremblingly.

"Yes, Mr. Peng collapsed in the laboratory. When we arrived, he was already gone."

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then asked.

"What happened? Have you found the reason?"

The middle-aged uncle shook his head, his voice full of helplessness and sorrow.

"It's not clear yet. B2 is investigating. I also plan to go to the monitoring room. This... this is really too sudden."

Jiang Xiao was silent for a moment, and then said slowly.

"Okay, let me go and see it with you."

Jiang Xiao and the middle-aged uncle walked into the monitoring room together. The atmosphere there was heavy and tense. b2 is sitting in front of a row of complex monitoring equipment. His fingers are tapping rapidly on the keyboard and his eyes are fixed on the screen.

Hearing the footsteps, b2 turned his head, the expression on his face was indescribably complicated.

He nodded and motioned to Jiang Xiao and the others to come over and take a look together.

"Here, I just called up the surveillance."

b2's voice was deep and he pressed the play button.

What was displayed on the screen was a picture of the laboratory. Mr. Peng was sitting there, surrounded by various instruments and reagents.

Although he is very old, his movements are focused and skillful, and he appears to be very skilled. He is obviously conducting some important experiment.

Jiang Xiao and his uncle held their breath and stared at the screen intently.

Suddenly, Mr. Peng in the picture stopped moving, and his body began to stiffen, as if he was fixed by something.

Then, his expression gradually distorted, as if he was experiencing unbearable pain.

Jiang Xiao's heart contracted hard, and he could feel that his palms were sweating.

He couldn't imagine what kind of pain Mr. Peng endured at that time.

But then, the screen went black.

When the screen was restored, what happened to Mr. Peng made everyone present feel unprecedented fear.

Peng Lao's body began to change, like a sculpture made of accumulated sand, gradually dissipating in the wind.

The outline of his body became blurred, his limbs slowly disintegrated, and finally the whole person was like quicksand, slowly "collapsing" until he completely disappeared from the surveillance screen.

There was dead silence in the surveillance room, with only the mute sound of the surveillance video playing the disappearance of Mr. Peng.

b2's face turned pale and he swallowed.

"What's going on? Is it different from the doctor's?"

The middle-aged uncle's tears welled up again, and his voice was trembling.

"Mr. Peng, he...is he like this?"

Jiang Xiao also responded with silence. Unexpectedly, the "gone" the middle-aged uncle said was "gone" in the physical sense. It was just a literal meaning.

"How long did the surveillance last?"

"It took less than a minute, and no one went in. It was not a homicide."

In fact, the explanation of b2 is purely redundant. In such a state of death, besides the so-called god, who else has such means?

The only difference between the doctor and the doctor is that the doctor still studied for a long time, while Mr. Peng did it in just a few hours.

Does this mean that God has accelerated the speed of his actions?

Is He also afraid?

Yes!

It seems like this, He seems to care about being studied?

Why do you care so much?

Now that he had the "formula", Jiang Xiao thought about it unhurriedly.

What would humans do if they knew they were being studied by ants?

Some are disgusting

This was Jiang Xiao's first reaction. When a person knows that he is being studied by ants, he will definitely feel uncomfortable and may even kill the ants.

What about other than that?

A bold idea suddenly came to Jiang Xiao's mind.

Is there a possibility that humans have some weaknesses that cannot be known to ants?

For example, if a human being is sleeping soundly in the middle of the night, and a large swarm of ants burrows into his nose or ears,

That might kill someone!
