"Dr. Shen, I have a question for you."
At Phecda Base in the Northern Desert, inside the ESP lab that was not busy, Gu Jun was trying to get some information from Dr. Shen. That morning, Tong Ye was not around because he had gone to pick up the assessment team. Gu Jun finally found a chance to get some information from Dr. Shen.
"What? Please. "Dr. Shen was as kind as ever.
"I know the ESP community has been doing research on lucid dreaming." Gu Jun asked. Wu Shiyu was listening as well. "I want to know if there are any experiments and training related to dreams that can improve our mental power and ESP?"
Dr. Shen pushed the glasses on his nose and answered seriously, "Lucid dreaming is a big field. But this time, I did not arrange any training like that for you because after the mental training, you need real sleep to let your cerebral cortex rest. Otherwise, it will be harmful. If our research can continue, we will gradually let you try lucid dreaming. "
"Then …" Gu Jun was trying to figure out how to ask. Every time he was reminded of that newspaper for the past month, he would have a strange feeling of unease.
"Listen to the voice of dreams with your heart." This sentence was stuck in his throat like a fish bone.
Wu Shiyu looked at him and grimaced helplessly. What a coward. She asked directly, "Dr. Shen, is it possible to receive some kind of information from dreams? It might not be sent by humans, but something like a signal from space? "
Gu Jun glanced at her and said internally, You're asking for a beating. Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Obviously, Wu Shiyu did not hear him. Even if she did, she was probably pretending not to hear him.
"Shi Yu, Ah Jun." Dr. Shen sighed with a smile. "I understand that you're trying your best to improve your mental power and understand ESP, but the current medical knowledge on the human brain is very limited. Currently, medical knowledge of the human brain was very limited. Psychiatry and neurology were both weak areas. Forget about dreams and extrasensory perception, we don't even know the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. "
Although his current job was to be studied by others, Gu Jun also studied medicine, so he couldn't help but nod as he listened.
Alzheimer's disease is commonly known as Alzheimer's disease. It is a degenerative disease of the nervous system and the most common type of dementia in old age. However, since the first case was reported at the beginning of the 20th century, the global medical community had been studying this disease for hundreds of years. Countless large pharmaceutical companies and laboratories had done countless studies.
To this day, the pathogenesis of the disease could not be determined. From heredity, parasites, prions, abnormal metabolism … beta-amyloid waterfall hypothesis, tau protein theory … low education, high blood pressure, high blood sugar … Everything had been tried, but the cause could not be determined.
The more Gu Jun thought about it, the more he felt a chill run down his spine. This was actually a very terrifying matter.
Is Alzheimer's disease contagious? This was still an unknown. There were also research hypotheses in this area, and there was a certain possibility.
Even if it did exist, Alzheimer's disease was not contagious, at least for now …
Otherwise, for humans on Earth, it might be a form of hemoptysis.
"Therefore, Tong Ye and I are also feeling our way." Dr. Shen added to encourage them, "Don't rush things. Haste makes waste. With your current mental power, you should be able to handle this assessment."
"No, Dr. Shen, you don't understand at all," Wu Shiyu said softly.
Gu Jun shrugged at her. Let's not ask about it for now. Looks like even Dr. Shen has no idea.
That morning, the two of them did not train. Instead, they spent their time in meditation. Professor Shen told them to conserve their energy.
At around 4 pm, the assessment team arrived at the base.
Dr. Shen led the three members of the Problematic Team and a group of researchers to welcome Tong Ye and the other team at the entrance of the medical building.
Gu Jun saw a group of people striding towards him. His eyes instantly fell on the group of 30 plus people wearing the same uniform.
They were their opponents this time, the Overseers.
Based on Dr. Shen's introduction and Phecda's internal information, this was a veteran Special Mobile Force unit that belonged to the headquarters. There were around 30 regular members, all of whom were highly spiritualized and well-versed in psychology. They were mainly recruited from the Medical Department and the Review Department.
This was because the Overseers' role was to provide technical support in psychology, S value assessment, and psychoanalysis. When there was a large mission that required the participation of several Special Mobile Force units and thousands of colleagues from the Action Department, the Overseers would join as a support team.
However, this time, based on Tong Ye's words, these Overseers were here to make a scene.
Gu Jun scanned them. There were men and women among the 30 plus people, and they were all above 30 years old. They were all wearing the team's unique uniform, and they looked very handsome. To increase teamwork, some Special Mobile Force units were allowed to have their own uniforms, but not the Problematic Team.
Everyone's eyes were calm and confident. When they saw him look over, they all nodded in acknowledgment.
Tong Ye and the few leaders of the assessment team stopped and pointed at each other, discussing something. However, among the entourage, Gu Jun saw two familiar faces.
One of them was Professor Qin, and the other was the previous commander of Gu Rong Village's emergency team, Yao Sinian. He had met them before they entered the tree hole.
"Professor Qin, Commander Yao." Gu Jun ignored them and walked forward to greet the two familiar faces.
"Ah Jun, after the last mission, I haven't had the chance to talk to you." Yao Sinian had a head full of white hair, and his slightly haggard face looked much older than the Commander Yao in Gu Jun's memory. "You've just completed the mission, and now you're sent here for special training. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's nothing." Gu Jun did not dare say it was hard work before these two elders.
He could already see that Professor Qin had aged a lot, and his brows were slightly furrowed. He had lost the calmness that he had when he sent him off a month ago.
"Professor Qin, how's the situation at Eastern State?" His heart sank, and a bad feeling rose within him.
"Not really." Professor Qin instantly sighed. He was filled with fatigue. "Ah Jun, in the past week, the number of suicides at Eastern State has increased fivefold. The psychiatry and neurology departments of the hospital are filled with patients. A new type of neurodegenerative disease has appeared, and there is still no effective treatment. The pathogenesis is still unclear, but it appears to be related to a contagious nightmare. "
Gu Jun shivered, and his eyes widened slightly. The Alzheimer's disease that he had feared earlier that morning resurfaced in his mind.
'Contagious nightmare? What kind of pathogenesis is this? '
For some reason, he was reminded of the sentence on the wall, "Listen to the voice of your dreams with your heart."
