Chapter 9 - Dimming sun

"Because the behavior of Brad before his death is simply not compatible with the mental model constructed based on Brad's past behavior. In other words, Brad who did these things is not the same person as Brad in normal times. We can't Know what's causing this change because we don't have enough sources."

"Although this method of psychoanalysis is powerful, it is not omnipotent." Alex thought silently, "This method can theoretically analyze anyone thoroughly, but the reality is that there is no one A person or institution has the ability to completely monitor a person's subtle actions 24 hours a day, the secretion levels of various hormones in the body, the operation strength of the cerebral cortex, or the beating speed of the heart. That is to say, it is impossible to completely Complete data for modeling use. Since there is no complete data, in actual analysis, we can only pass a hospital medical checklist on a certain day, or a scene captured by a surveillance video, or some related People's recollections and other sporadic data are used for analysis, which will inevitably lead to errors."

"Even if there's an error...that's pretty scary analysis. It's just because they can accurately predict that I'm not going to sleep well last night and that I'm going to ask Virat to be alone today. power. But they concluded that there was no way to assess Brad's behavioral patterns... What does that mean?"

Alex shook his head and continued to read the stack of documents.

"However, we think that there is a very high possibility. That is, during the period when Brad was about to die, Brad might have been coerced by some kind of external force, precisely because of this kind of situation that other people could not detect. Brad's behavior pattern has become so disordered that it is impossible to speculate and analyze. Brad chose a blank piece of paper as his relic, and "Alex will answer all doubts" 's message may be Brad's attempt to bypass the unknown external force restrictions to transmit information to us. Of course, we have no way of knowing exactly what information Brad wants to convey to us. "

"We are working hard to collect any information about Brad's images, voices and actions, in order to analyze Brad's behavior comprehensively and find out the time demarcation point between "normal Brad" and "abnormal Brad", if we Finally, we find this time demarcation point, we can know what happened that day that led to Brad's change, and we can also find out what the unknown power behind Brad is."

"For more information and conclusions, please wait for our further research."

This information ends here. Alex put down the information in his hand and entered into contemplation again.

The final conclusion of the psychology team was basically the same as the conclusion that Alex had conjectured. Both parties thought about the possibility that Brad did this because of the influence of some unknown force. The difference is that the research conclusions drawn by the psychology group are more rigorous and detailed. But because of this, Alex was even more confused.

If I can't find out the truth even with the power of the government, I can only rely on my own power... Can I solve this important mystery? Alex thought so.

"But I'm different from them. Because the key to solving this puzzle must be with me, even though I don't even know what the key is at the moment." Alex thought silently, "The key to the problem lies in the key. , but what is the key?"

This key was the key to Brad's final choice of Alex.

After reading the data of the psychological research team, Alex also transferred the recent research and observation data of the sun by the scientific research department of the Solar Crisis Coordination and Processing Center. Alex was originally a scientist in stellar physics, so viewing these materials did not hinder Alex.

"The solar activity is rapidly declining. In the past 48 hours to the past 24 hours, we have observed a total of 29 small flare bursts, and in the past 24 hours so far, we have observed There are only thirteen flare outbreaks. The sun is currently at the peak of its 11-year cycle. In the past, C-level flares were basically observed every day, and M-level or X-level flares were occasionally seen. Even B-class flares have decreased a lot in recent days."

"The following is a real picture taken by the Sun Atmosphere-1 satellite. The picture clearly shows that the sun is calming down eerily. But until now, we still have no valuable inferences and results."

The sun captured in those pictures is still huge, bright, and hot. But Alex keenly saw some vague red in the picture.

According to the classification of stars, the sun is a yellow dwarf. The color of a star is determined by its surface temperature, and the yellow light indicates that the surface temperature of the sun is around 6,000 degrees Kelvin. If the light is red, it indicates that the surface temperature of the star is between 2,000- and 5,000-degrees Kelvin. At this moment, the sun's light began to be mixed with red... This means that the surface temperature of the sun has dropped by at least 500 degrees.
