Under the candlelight, Kraft spread out the paper.
He is now staying in the same hotel where he stayed last time when he came to Wendeng Port, and it is even the same room.
That night, Kraft hesitated for a long time at the door of the room provided by the professor with the key in hand, and finally turned around and went back to the hotel.
It doesn't mean that he has lost his trust in the professor. It's just that the various situations that occurred reflect that Kalman's mental state is not very normal. People at this time are rarely reliable in doing things.
In addition, before going out this time, his grandfather gave him enough money to settle in Wendeng Port, so Kraft chose to make do with a hotel and attend classes for a few days before looking for a long-term residence.
Now he plans to use writing to sort out everything he has encountered and record what he knows in a reliable and fixed form.
As a person who has been deeply influenced by his grandfather, he is willing to classify such incidents as "abnormal phenomena". Anyway, they are indeed abnormal enough. After binding them into a notebook, they can be called "abnormal phenomena" notes.
First of all, he can make a less mature judgment based on his own personal experience - the abnormal phenomena he has encountered so far have limitations.
Whether it was hallucinations triggered by stone pillars as a medium, fever, or black liquid inducing humans, he was affected only after getting close to and visually observing real and material related things.
He had reason to guess that the black stone pillars found in the village fields had a limited range of influence, so they formed a unique local "fever disease". Moreover, this influence was only accessible to some people, and the conditions were unknown.
The black liquid has to be brought in front of you to have a more obvious inducing tendency. But this effect seems to be easier to produce. Professor Kalman, Lucius and Kraft were all affected.
In short, this restriction means that it requires a "medium" that actually exists in the knowable field, and it also requires visual inspection and entering a certain range. It even needs the contact to meet certain conditions before it will be triggered.
This conclusion was also the reason why Kraft was still preparing to go back to class. After locking everything in the secret laboratory, he felt more at ease, and all he had to do next was to pay more attention to Lucius.
If conditions permit, he will also check to see if there are any other things that have not been cleaned up, and solve them by the way. It is best to find out where some of the samples that the professor took out went.
Lock up what should be locked, bury what should be buried deeper, and hide everything. Then wait for the professor to come back and educate him on experimental safety knowledge.
It is undeniable that Kraft has quite a sense of luck. In the two encounters, the first one was almost no accident, and the second time was even more insignificant compared to the first time, which made him feel that this kind of thing is contagious with certain contact
There is no difference in the prevention of diseases, and they are most often associated with magic in novels.
On the other hand, he couldn't leave these things behind just yet. After all, he still knew people. After all, it was the only medical school nearby. After all... he would still have to count on them in the future.
After comforting himself that "it'll be fine if you don't touch it," Kraft wrote down the second point:
As mentioned in the first point, the effect of media on people does not work indiscriminately.
It seems that it is easier for me to feel the differences in the media, realize the existence of "abnormal" things, and have reactions that are different from other people's, and I belong to a special individual.
The village doctor once mentioned that no one in the village who contracted "fever" survived for more than two days, but he somehow managed to survive it. And he was the only one who realized for no reason that the black liquid was inducing the living body to come into contact with it.
Kraft listed two possibilities: Either he has exercised to be particularly healthy and his consciousness is sharp, so there is a difference.
Or it's a side effect of "traveling". Maybe after two souls merge into one, they will get special treatment like products with increased quantity but no increase in price?
Well, I’ll write it down for now, maybe I’ll have the opportunity to verify my conjecture in the future.
There is another point to note about the black liquid itself - he doesn't understand why, what is the significance of the black liquid inducing organisms to come into contact with or even swallow it.
The worst possibility he could think of was based on his own poor experience, guessing that it was some kind of magical parasite that needed to obtain nutrients from other creatures. Lucius was temporarily normal because it had not broken through the digestive tract.
The mucosal barrier may still be developing and growing.
It's very helpless to say that if this is the case, even if Kraft notices the changes in Lucius, his skills will probably be of no use and he can only take one step at a time.
The greater possibility is that it is meaningless, similar to the "gifts" left to Kraft by Dreams on a Snowy Night. Ordinary people can only understand and use the parts of them that are within their own cognitive scope.
Kalman felt that it was the "black liquid" in the four-liquid theory, and Kraft felt that it was toxic to the central nervous system, and that it was beyond common sense and was not suitable for exploration and could not be explored.
Kraft paused, drew a dividing line, and started another paragraph:
But for now, these things appear to be like magic, curses and other things in literary works. The explicit harm is limited, but they cannot be fully recognized.
To put it bluntly, it is better to worry about them than to worry about the pandemic of certain infectious diseases. This is the thing that is most likely to cause trouble in this era, and it is also the situation that Kraft is most afraid of after learning about the current medical level.
After all, a soul from another world is just a soul traveler. I haven't brought any of the vaccines I've been given since childhood. In an era without antibiotics and antiviral drugs, it's really just a gamble.
Now I am thinking about how to teach the two courses of "Microorganisms" and "Parasites" to everyone in the medical school in a different way, so that I will not be infected and have to undergo bloodletting one day, which will be a lot of fun.
Finally, back to the task at hand. Craft unexpectedly found that all he could do had been done.
He completed the isolation of the black liquid and experimental records, and then made preparations to observe Lucius every time he went to class. This was all he could do.
Limited by the current communication and transportation, it is impossible for him to catch up with Professor Kalman and figure out everything, not to mention that the source of everything is not Professor Kalman.
In distant Dunling, the center of that kingdom, under the noses of the two major powers, the king and the church, the professor named Morrison produced the black liquid through some unknown method.
It also claimed that it was extracted from the human body, and asked Kalman to go there personally to help with the research. Based on the existing clues, it seems that there are almost flaws everywhere.
There is a high probability that it is a scam based on abnormal phenomena, which is not bad.
There is a small chance that Morrison's every word is true, and the horror of the matter will make people's scalp numb. It means that he took the human body and made something that should not be in the human body at all. The logic is simply detailed.
Thinking is extremely scary.
Kraft confirmed what he had thought this morning. He was indeed late, and too late.
The best time to stop this thing is to travel to Dunling, hold down Morrison, and tell him to go back and engage in serious medicine, not paramorphology.
The second step is to intercept the sample sent to Kalman to prevent a series of experiments from happening, let alone let him secretly take the black liquid to do things that Lucius cannot tell.
The last opportunity was a week ago, when he used his strong physical persuasion skills to wake up two guys who were possessed by experiments and prevent Kalman from going to Dunling.
And now, Kalman's clipper has set off for a week, and Kraft is stuck here wiping his butt, taking care of Lucius, vigilantly keeping an eye on every possible problem, and playing a cameo role as Sherlock Holmes in the confusing events.
He has never been the kind of person who is good at reasoning games, even if he has a strong consciousness. He uses it more for his own profession rather than case investigation. Analyzing the changes in fonts in the professor's experimental records is his limit.
.
The earliest part of the experimental records was in order, and the letters were written at that time.
What follows is the process of the professor's font gradually letting itself go, gradually distorting and deforming until it forms an unrecognizable symbol.
It is certain that the professor's mental state is deteriorating day by day. We can only hope that before he left, he did not use the black liquor to do something big that Kraft could not handle.
There are many things, but few can be dealt with. At the end, Kraft, who hates this deeply, summarizes the current stage:
Keep your distance, keep it closed, and never come into contact unless necessary.
