Chapter 42 Multiple pathogenic factors(2/2)
"If a hypothesis conflicts with reality, it is definitely not reality that is wrong. One possibility is that we have omitted to observe the phenomenon, and the other is that our theory is imperfect."
"What do you mean?" Lucius was confused.
"I think it's the latter. This assumption is too simple. There may be more than one risk factor for the disease. The clarifying agent is just one of them."
Kraft recalled yesterday's map and compared it with his own sense of walking on Elm Street today. "If my sense of distance is not too outrageous and Liston's drawing scale is correct, the dotted line I drew yesterday..."
He made a rough calculation and said, "If we walk in a straight line, it will only take five to ten minutes."
"I also want to go back to my original guess. There is a factor that can affect a certain range. It may not be an infectious disease, but it is much larger than the few houses I originally thought."
Kraft opened his arms and made a big circle.
"Its center is not here, and its influence here is already very weak, so it will only manifest itself under the dual effects of another dangerous factor, that is, clarity."
"In that case, to find it..." Lucius thought thoughtfully.
"Salt tide area." Kraft picked up the wooden box, "We have to go to the salt tide area to have a look."
