Bai Liu took out a pair of scissors from the drawer in the dormitory, and held it in his palm for a while to warm it up, so that the blade could be smoothly inserted. He cut the tarpaulin with the blade, and the things wrapped in it finally appeared.

It was a stack of neatly packed lab reports.

These experimental lists are all some professional English abbreviations, some measurement data and charts, and some strange black-and-white or color stained section photos. In short, they are some things that are difficult to read. It is impossible to assist ordinary people to understand.

Bai Liu flipped through it briefly, then looked up to Mu Sicheng: "Where did you find this thing?"

Mu Sicheng breathed evenly and said: "The basement, when I went out to check the helicopter garage just now, I found a cellar door with a pull button hidden under the docking board. Below it is a basement on the first floor, which contains various experimental equipment. , and some pickled cabbage and radish."

"Have you found the experimental log and related finished papers in this basement?" Bai Liu asked.

The experimental reports studied by these people are really raw materials, and Bai Liu needs at least some basic knowledge transition to understand what the data in these reports mean.

Mu Sicheng shook his head: "I'm looking for it carefully. This bag is on the table. I think it's very important. I'll get it for you first."

Bai Liu: "Call Mu Ke over here, you and Liu Jiayi go to clean up the food on the first floor, and prepare the share we want when we go out. Mu Ke and I will go down to the basement to shop."

Mu Sicheng turned to look for Mu Ke, Bai Liu glanced sideways at Tang Er, and handed him the document in his hand: "Can you understand?"

"I can understand a little bit." Tang Er simply flipped through and answered quickly, but soon his eyes stopped on a certain chart, "This chart...is a dual-frequency radar The I-wave has detected the thickness under the ice surface many times, and the pattern drawn after obtaining the detection data can be used to obtain the terrain under the ice surface according to this pattern, so that no obstacles such as rocks will be encountered in the process of drilling through the ice layer. "

Bai Liu noticed Tang Er's strange expression, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with this chart?"

Tang Er hesitated for a moment, and then pointed to the explanation below the chart: "This chart is a very common ice detection chart in the polar regions, but the ground it detects is dome a, because it is ice. Dome a."

"There are only domestic observation stations stationed near Ice Dome A, which belongs to the research scope of domestic observation stations. Although the atmosphere between the observation stations of various countries on the Antarctic side is relatively peaceful, the division of research areas between them is relatively clear. Yes, the Edmond Observatory is capable and qualified to investigate Ice Dome a, because it is impossible for the Edmond Observatory to have any first-hand experimental data on Ice Dome a."

Tang Er dubiously flipped through a few more pages of the experimental report data: "But they have a lot of ice detection and ice core research reports related to Ice Dome a, this is not normal."

"One observation station has the confidential research materials of another observation station." Bai Liu casually glanced at the materials in Tang Er's hand, "Common sense has only one possibility."

Tang Er walked over, and Bai Liu continued without haste: "One is a good possibility, the observation station in China, because the Taishan station in the game took the initiative to share its first-hand experimental data with Edmond Observatory."

Tang Er frowned and denied: "This is impossible, this is a very serious leak of scientific research data."

Bai Liu raised her eyes and smiled: "It turns out that Captain Tang, like me, is more inclined to the bad possibility—the Edmund Observatory used some kind of method to forcibly obtain the research data of Ice Dome a."

"Or worse, the group of guys at the Edmond Observatory directly killed the people at the Taishan Station, and then occupied the Taishan Observation Station to conduct scientific research on Ice Dome a." Liu Jiayi appeared by the door.

She folded her arms and leaned against the edge of the door, raised her eyebrows and turned to Bai Liu: "——I found Edmund's living quarters, and I feel that this guy is not some ice-cold scientist. Combined with the remnants of the inside, he is not low in aggression."

"Take us there." Bai Liu took Liu Jiayi's hand one step at a time, and naturally exchanged the warmed gloves with Liu Jiayi's empty gloves, and put them on for her.

The researchers at Edmund's station are all tall and big, not even a child, so the matching clothes are wide, and every piece of white clothes that Bai Liu wears should be above the knees to the ankles. Not to mention Liu Jiayi.

Although Liu Jiayi had the foresight to wrap herself with several pieces of clothes, which made them neat and tidy, but the gaps in the clothes inevitably leaked air, such as gloves.

Liu Jiayi's hands were so cold that they were about to freeze, but this little girl was so strong that she didn't like being taken care of, so she couldn't help but keep silent, because she didn't show her face.

Bai Liu changed his gloves so naturally, as if he was born to change this pair of gloves with Liu Jiayi, and the others even realized what he did.

Liu Jiayi just paused, and held Bai Liu's hand: "Edmond's cabin is on the fourth floor."

She doesn't like this kind of aggressive men, they always make her think of some bad things, which makes her subconsciously repulsed and anxious, but Bai Liuwei is a ridiculously aggressive man, just a Because I can't come out, I don't...

Liu Jiayi shook the warm and loose gloves that Bai Liu had just replaced, covered her face and exhaled water vapor, pursed her lips and looked much calmer.

Although Bai Liuwei was quite annoying, she didn't know what to do, she just accepted this person well.

Liu Jiayi led Bai Liu all the way to the corner, where there was a room about one square meter wider than other living quarters. When Bai Liu walked here, he could feel the wind continuously coming in through the cracks in the seals of the windows when he looked up. , roaring past, taking away all the temperature.

Around the seal, there are icicles as thick as a ballpoint pen dripping and congealing, glowing in the dim light.

Liu Jiayi stuffed the gloves into her pocket: "I didn't realize at the beginning that this living quarters was the living quarters of Edmund, the boss, because this living quarters are located in the air outlet, and they are the first to be caught in any snowstorm. It’s so dangerous for a base manager to live here, he might freeze to death in his sleep.”

"But I found this behind the door." Liu Jiayi kicked the frozen door.

After the ice-stained door clicked and snapped, it closed with a bang under the blowing of the wind. The door was hung with iron hooks, and the iron hooks were neatly hung with a row of improved models about 70cm long. The muzzle of the rifle/gun is also covered with ice edges.

"I found no traces of guns/fire in other rooms, basically books, computers, medicines and the like. Only this room has a gun, and there are a lot of bullets/ammunition in reserve."

Liu Jiayi hooked a box under the bed with her toes, pulled her waist out hard, exhaled a long breath, stepped on the neatly arranged 7.62mm bullets in the box with her toes, and said sarcastically:

"I used to be some kind of military personnel in the observation post, but I found a purchase under this box/ammunition for reimbursement. The gun/and/bullet/ammunition are all in Edmond Purchased in his personal name, this should be his living quarters."

Tang Er frowned and said: "The Antarctic Convention prohibits people at the observation station from using guns/military weapons, so it is strictly forbidden to store similar items here."

Liu Jiayi shrugged: "But he just used it. My purchase date and remarks, or after he arrived in Antarctica, he entrusted the Antarctic helicopter transport team to help him purchase and transport it for the reason of self-protection. of."

"And he should live here alone. I haven't found any traces of the second person living here. It is estimated that no one knows that he has a gun except for him."

Bai Liu glanced past the pile of rifles/guns, and stood at the door of the room again, simulating a posture of holding a gun in the void, half-closed his eyes through the non-existent sniper hole and looked towards the floor. ‌:

"So this Edmund bought bullets/bullets/guns in the name of self-defense and hid them in his room, preferring to live alone in the extreme cold vent cabin at the end of the room at the risk of freezing to death. The only thing you can point the gun at is the people in the other cabins in this corridor—”

Bai Liu put down the "gun" in his hand, and he said with interest: "It seems that this Dr. Edmund seems to be afraid that other personnel in the observation station will attack him, and he is so frightened that he wants to buy/gun himself It's safe."

Mu Ke walked from the corner of the third floor to the fourth floor, followed by Mu Sicheng.

When the two of them reached the white willow at the end of the corridor, Mu Ke walked over with a slightly dignified expression, took out a large stack of lists and handed them over, explaining: "When Mu Sicheng and I are making food preparations for you, , I found that a lot of fresh food in the warehouse has rotted, and a lot of canned food has been piled up in the warehouse, and the outer seals have not been removed."

"Both Mu Sicheng and I felt that something was wrong, so we went to check the flow sheet here that records the consumption of food and medicine. I took a quick look at it just now, and I didn't find anything wrong at first, but It was only later that I discovered that the item [Consumption of Necessary Ingested Items] written in the running water sheet did not match the amount of food consumed and the amount of stored food.”

"But then I checked the consumption of food and medicine carefully, and found that although the [Mandatory Ingestion Consumption] records are all food names, the various foods in it do not represent the real food. These foods actually refer to various drugs, such as bread refers to [lithium carbonate].”

Mu Ke turned to Bai Liu intently: "The people in this observation take medicine as food, and provide them with three meals a day, and some people are forcing them to take these medicines."

Bai Liu asked: "What kind of medicine is this?"

"Lorazetine, dioxetine, chlorpromazine, olanzapine..." Mu Ke reported a long list of drug names without a single word, and then gave a conclusion, "Most of them are anti-severe drugs. Psychotherapy drugs for depression, severe anxiety, and mania."

"The people at the Edmond Observatory are taking a lot of these drugs every day, and they don't even eat much food." Mu Ke took a deep breath, "If this is really the case, then this place is quite a polar place. ‌In a mental hospital, these people are all very healthy and very aggressive critically ill patients when they get sick.”

Bai Liu shifted his gaze to the floor of Edmund's room, where there was a whole box of cold bullets.

"I probably understand why Dr. Edmund wants to buy guns and bullets." Bai Liu said softly, "He is trying to detain and control these dangerous patients."
