Appraisal Matter: Death Appraisal
Name of the Appraised Person: Lost
III. Inspection Findings, injuries of the appraised person: Comminuted fracture of the lower limbs, fracture of the sternum with insertion into the lungs, extensive puncture wounds in both the left and right lungs, rupture of the pulmonary artery, damage to the femoral artery. There are obvious signs of and impact from the collapse of the building at the injured parts.
Blood loss: 4000 cc
Cause of Death: Brain death.
"Brain death with a blood loss of 4000 cc? With this amount of blood loss, the blood would have almost drained out, and still brain death? This forensic doctor must be out of his mind. How could such an appraisal be issued?"
Wang Wei didn't say anything and pointed to the corresponding on-site photo.
"How is this possible!!"
It was a long trail of blood. The person crawled slowly out of the collapsed building. The trail of blood became lighter and lighter along the way until it disappeared, and the lime line representing the target's movement was still spreading.
He couldn't believe it and flipped through the following information, only to find that all the reports were strikingly similar.
One trail of blood after another, one mutilated body after another, and one lime line after another representing their direction of movement.
Liu Xi, who was checking the materials in her hand, suddenly shivered. It was as if she was right in the core of this conflict. When she looked around, there were calm little faces all around. In the distance, countless people with limbs, covered in blood and expressionless, were crawling towards her.
...
"Where is this?"
"You probably don't want to know."
Song Han, who had come to his senses, stared blankly at the system's control over his body.
The memories surging in his mind made Song Han's heart turn cold.
They were pairs of indifferent eyes and calm narrations.
"I've found you."
One after another, bare-handed teenagers kept with him with agility and strength far beyond that of ordinary humans, and Song Han could only passively keep dodging.
His appearance caused the chaos to spread continuously. When the figures of adults began to appear among the countless people in tattered clothes and even covered in dust.
They drove their broken bodies, either staggering forward or crawling slowly.
What remained the same were the gazes fixed on him.
"I've found you."
Under the great shock to his body and mind, the system promptly took over the control of Song Han's body. In the midst of the bloody storm, taking advantage of the briefly vacated encirclement, he grabbed the hoisting cable dropped by the rotorcraft and fled in a sorry state.
Even now, Song Han still remembered those young figures that fell under his hands, and the indifferent eyes that stared at him with a calmness that had no ripple, not caring at all about the fragmentation of their own bodies.
"I've found you!"
...
Song Han's impulse did not change the arduous struggle of humanity. Instead, it made his own struggle even more difficult.
He asked hoarsely, "Are they the observation we've been avoiding all this time?"
"Yes."
The system controlled Song Han's hands as they kept tapping on the keyboard. The interface on the computer kept switching, as if the system was having real-time communication with a group of people at this moment.
"So, did I cause all this?"
Sensing Song Han's increasingly silent and even somewhat scattered consciousness, the system comforted him, "It doesn't matter whether the result or the process came first.
Under the framework of the unity of time and space, when the result appears, the process will inevitably change towards the result.
Even without your impulse, we couldn't have avoided their sight forever.
Sometimes, facing the enemy directly is also the most effective way to understand the enemy. In this regard, you humans possess courage and possibilities beyond the scope of mechanical calculation.
This is a war between two civilizations, and you are just a witness to this war."
As the system's voice fell, it also stopped its actions.
The last thing displayed on the computer interface was the cover of a novel: Brain Control: Consciousness Invasion.
Song Han asked, "Who are they?"
"An unknown civilization. According to the information you brought back before, future humans will call it the Laniakea civilization."
"The Laniakea civilization?"
The system's comfort seemed to have had an effect.
At least knowing that all this was the doing of aliens instantly eliminated more than half of Song Han's sense of guilt.
However, what puzzled Song Han was: "What's the relationship between the Laniakea civilization and the Laniakea Supercluster?"
The system said calmly, "According to the interpretation of the known information by future humans, according to the inherent thinking of humans, the Laniakea Supercluster can be understood as the territory of the other civilization.
Just like in the future, when a law of Country X can bind all humans around the world, the Earth can also be called the territory of Country X."
"Are you kidding me!!"
Song Han's thoughts became active instantly, and his thoughts even interfered with the system's control over his body. A high-pitched and somewhat hoarse voice came out of his mouth.
After all, the information fed back by the system, combined with his rich astronomical knowledge in his mind, made him realize what an enormous scale this was.
"The Laniakea Supercluster contains about 100,000 galaxies, with a range of nearly 520 million light-years, and its total mass is 100,000 times that of the Milky Way Galaxy to which our solar system belongs!
This is only the part currently observed by humans.
The Milky Way Galaxy to which our solar system belongs is just a pixel point in the Virgo Supercluster under the Laniakea Supercluster.
As the largest known mass structure in the universe, the Laniakea Supercluster contains the Virgo Cluster, the Hydra Cluster, the Centaurus Cluster, Abel 3565, Abel 3574, Abel 3521, the Fornax Cluster, the Eridanus Cluster, and the Norma Cluster, etc.
The entire supercluster is composed of about 300 to 500 known galaxy clusters and groups, and with the unknown parts included, the actual number is even higher!
It completely exceeds the observation range of us humans!
You're telling me that our enemy is a civilization with such a vast territory?
Do you know how many star systems the size of our solar system are contained in the Milky Way Galaxy?
Do you know how many galaxies like the Milky Way are contained in a galaxy cluster?
Do you know how many galaxy clusters are contained in a supercluster?
This is a quantity that exceeds our human units of measurement!
If our enemy is them, why would they go to so much trouble to kill me?
Wouldn't our Earth be gone with just a sneeze from them?"
The system retorted, "How do you know that the other side hasn't sneezed?"
Song Han was suddenly stunned when he looked at the information replied by the system in front of him.
The system continued to ask, "What do you think we're doing now?"
Song Han instinctively asked, "What are we doing?"
The system replied calmly, "We're trying to figure out how large the scope of the other side's 'sneeze' is, trying to figure out the true physical structure of the other side's 'sneeze', and trying to figure out how to get out of the scope of this 'sneeze'.
Or to prevent this'sneeze' from destroying the solar system."
"But why?"
Song Han grabbed his hair in confusion and asked the question from the bottom of his heart, "Why are they targeting us? Why do they want to eliminate humanity?
On the scale of the universe, we are so tiny to them that we are almost nothing. Why are they doing this?
If it really is them, why would they use such low-level means and give us a chance to survive?"
