Chapter 147 Influence
The Earth rotated for another 3 seconds.
People gradually came to their senses—no, "came to their senses" isn't quite accurate.
A more accurate description would be "lucid dreaming," because people remain fully conscious and possess the thinking and memory abilities that come with wakefulness.
The incident quickly escalated.
At first, people thought they were only hearing this string of gibberish in their own neighborhood or in their own area.
However, in today's interconnected world, people quickly learned that it wasn't their own location, but... the entire world heard this string of gibberish!
Instantly, everyone's attention was ignited.
It's important to understand that what people in one region hear and what people all over the world hear are two completely different concepts.
It should be understood that humanity currently has no means to simultaneously intervene in the lives of all people in the world.
The world became lively, with major international forums dominating the trending topics, and everyone discussing this:
Some say this is a signal of an alien attack...
Some say this is a harbinger of the Mayan-predicted end of the world in 2012...
Some say this is a secret test of a new weapon developed by a certain American country...
Some people say that this is a divine oracle, and that if humans decipher it, they can obtain the secrets of the gods!
Some even say this is a harbinger of a spiritual resurgence and a cataclysmic change in the world, signaling the imminent arrival of a cultivation era...
However, this mystery is destined to remain unsolved, because no one can remember the exact "garbled code" from before, and no device records it.
How can we conduct research without any practical experience or foundation?
You must know that theoretical research also needs to be based on facts!
Einstein's theory of relativity is also based on classical physics theory and on a large amount of observational data and experimental foundations of the real world resulting from the advancement of observational methods.
Without anything, you're forcing a study?
That's not science, that's theology!
Of course, many people believe that there are no gods or ghosts in the world. It's just a special geomagnetic event, or something like cosmic rays causing a disruption in human nerve signals...
Ninety percent of humans share this view. After all, it's the 21st century, and humans are no longer the primitive people who would pray to gods and Buddhas if they saw a total solar eclipse.
People believe the world is based on science!
As expected, just three hours after the incident, academies of sciences and authoritative media outlets around the world began to issue statements explaining the truth:
Mysterious signals affecting humanity worldwide: are they signals from extraterrestrials or the ravings of God?
No, this is just a special natural astronomical phenomenon!
According to NASA's latest observations, a supernova explosion 200 light-years away released sudden gravitational waves that spread throughout the galaxy, forming massive matter waves (or de Broglie waves). These waves propelled a huge amount of interstellar dark matter radiation shockwaves into the universe at the speed of light. These matter waves then carried the invisible dark matter into the center of the Sun, causing the giant neutrino sea at the Sun's core, created by prolonged thermonuclear fusion, to undergo a quasi-adiabatic evolution from a quiescent state. Based on Fermi's impossibility theorem, neutrinos were self-excited from their uncharged state to become spin glassy states. A small number of these spin glassy particles were then carried by the Sun in the form of light and scattered throughout the solar system. When they passed through Earth's magnetic field, they encountered each other, resulting in the quantum Hall conductivity effect…
······
Simply put, the entire human population has been "electrocuted," and the sounds we hear are merely illusions caused by the influence of Wernicke's area, located in the superior temporal gyrus, where the parietal, occipital, and temporal lobes of the brain meet.
Countries around the world issued a unified and authoritative announcement, consisting of several thousand words, classifying the event as a special natural phenomenon.
After the incident, they were all terrified, thinking that aliens had descended, and the state apparatus went into overdrive!
But minutes later, from millions of miles deep in the ocean to tens of millions of miles in space, there was nothing. Various probes searched repeatedly, and the world remained the same, unchanged!
At first, they thought that their technology was too backward to find the other party, but after waiting and waiting, nothing happened. As more and more people gathered in front of the capital building, they decided to stop worrying and focus on calming the public first.
Meanwhile, experts and scholars from various fields began to conduct extensive discussions to find the cause of the event.
The collision of various disciplines has generated a variety of vivid conjectures.
In an effort to calm the angry crowd gathered in front of the White House protesting the government's cover-up of extraterrestrials, the American government chose the most obscure and difficult-to-understand of all the experts' and scholars' wildest speculations and released that one.
Other countries, struggling to find a way to appease their people, simply translated the announcement from the United States and used it directly.
This led to the scene described earlier: the world unanimously classified this event as a natural phenomenon.
Most ordinary people fall for this, even though they only understand the beginning and end of the announcement and can't understand what's said in the middle. But it seems very impressive, so they believe it.
Some people were skeptical, while others didn't believe it at all. But regardless of which group they belonged to, they still had to work, because survival was their primary concern. As for the truth of the matter, that was not something they, who were struggling to make a living, could worry about.
This event was destined not to dominate headlines for long, because with the tacit suppression from various countries, it wouldn't be long before people's attention was drawn to a deluge of other sensational news, and the event would be relegated to some corner of their hearts. Until years later… when Hui descended into the world as a true god, her unparalleled presence awakened this memory within people, and only then did everyone realize: "So, years ago, God came!"
Now, the world has returned to its previous peace.
Of course, behind the scenes, high-ranking officials from various countries around the world began a secret investigation.
······
A few hours ago downstairs in the new domain building,
Qu Shiai came to her senses and shuddered.
She felt as if she had encountered something incredibly terrifying, making her tremble all over, as if she would die without a trace if she just glanced at it.
Even now, she still gets goosebumps and is terrified.
Furthermore, her purpose was thwarted by this mysterious event, so she took advantage of the chaos in the crowd and left.
Meanwhile, Zhai Kaihua was observing the situation outside from a secret room in the new territory.
"Damn it, all our efforts have been wasted! All our efforts have been wasted!"
Zhai Kaihua was furious because he had promoted the concept of "suicide method".
However, people's attention is not on that at all now.
Sixty people committing suicide by jumping off buildings is extremely unusual, or rather, very attention-grabbing, in normal times. But as the saying goes, "You can't judge a book by its cover," and compared to the mysterious global event that occurred just minutes ago, this is utterly insignificant!
Because, in people's minds, the mass suicide of 60 people is simply a gathering of 60 people who want to commit suicide, which can be done artificially.
However, what happened a few minutes ago was completely beyond people's comprehension. No one, including Zhai Kaihua himself, could reasonably explain this unheard-of event through their own understanding. The only reasonable explanations they could think of were: gods, aliens, and other such fantasies.
The focus now is on the truth behind this mysterious event, not on the suicide law they announced, because nobody wants to commit suicide right now, or rather, nobody wants to commit suicide with regrets until the truth behind this mysterious event that has swept the world is figured out.
Once they regained their senses, no one cared about jumping off buildings or committing suicide anymore; what they wanted to know was what had just happened!
"I just heard something, but... I can't remember it."
"Huh!? You too? Me too!"
"What is this thing?!"
···
At the same time, the sirens of ambulances began to sound, revealing that the road was already a scene of car accident chaos.
When many people come to their senses, they've either been hit by a car or have bumped into someone else or... a building.
Previously.
Masaki Yoshimasa finally understood everything. He suddenly realized that whether it was Okuda, Inaba, or Fumio, they were all controlled by Kyōse Ai's superpowers, which is why they had the idea of wanting to die.
In other words, they were all "suicidal!"
The culprit was Qu Shi'ai, the woman who could make people willingly commit suicide simply by using her voice.
Masaki Zen was facing the same thing just now, and was under immense pressure from this supernatural ability.
Mysterious events have occurred worldwide!
Everyone heard an indescribable sound, then fell silent for a few seconds.
After returning to normal, Masaki Zen wanted to find Qu Shiai, but she was nowhere to be found.
“No, this is the suicide law.” Masaki Zen turned to look at the roof of the building, where a small number of people had not yet jumped.
At this moment, Masaki Zen saw that there were still some people in the hall who had not jumped off the building.
"A sound?! Someone didn't jump? A sound? No one jumped? No one jumped..."
Suddenly, a bizarre idea popped into his head, instantly making his hands and feet go cold.
No one else knew that the 60 people who jumped were controlled by superpowers; they just thought that they had gathered together because they wanted to commit suicide due to various reasons such as life and emotions.
However, just as Seizaki Zen began to doubt this world, realizing that the 60 people who wanted to commit suicide were being controlled by Qu Shiai's abilities, a mysterious event occurred precisely at the moment they were preparing to do so!
So Seisaki Zen had a question: Is this really just a coincidence?
A deeper question: Is this world truly scientific?
The more he thought about it, the colder Masaki Zen's hands and feet became...
"Haha! How could that be! Don't overthink it, this is definitely just a natural event! Even if there really are superpowered people, how could they possibly interfere with the whole world? Superpowered people aren't—they aren't...gods."
Masaki Zen didn't know how he got back to the prosecutor's office.
However, after returning to the prosecutor's office, he began to contact his good friend Kujiin Shi in the Metropolitan Police Department and asked him for the identity information of the 60 suicide victims.
While waiting, Masaki Yoshi turned on his computer and typed into Google: "Super powers do they exist?"
"Do superpowers really exist?"
······
The outer perimeter of the roof garden of the new residence.
Thirteen people did not jump, including Kouta.
The 13 people seemed to have their souls returned to their bodies.
Qu Shiai's manipulation of their minds has disappeared.
At an altitude of 500 meters, the wind was strong, making a "whooshing, whooshing" sound as it blew past everyone's ears.
ah--!!!!
Thirteen people were hanging over the edge of a roof 500 meters high, with one foot halfway off the ground.
What would happen if I fell?
