Chapter 155: The Debut of Cutting-Edge Technology Equipment
"Director Wang, Captain Zhou contacted the military district chief earlier; I'm sorry to disturb you so late."
Inside a conference room at the Military District Suburban Research Institute.
Officer Su Cheng had just arrived.
The middle-aged, silver-haired director was wearing a white lab coat, and the conference room was filled with young military industrial experts.
"Xiao Su, thank you for coming all this way. I know; quickly project that design blueprint for everyone to see."
Beside the podium, Officer Su Cheng operated the design blueprint Jiang Zhe had provided and projected it.
Soon, a detailed diagram of a precision electronic device appeared on the large screen.
Once the blueprint was displayed, all the experts, including the director, stared intently at the diagram, which included Chinese and English translations.
The blueprint was simple and easy to understand.
It began with electromagnetic pulse emission.
During the emission process, four types of human brainwaves—those related to β and α—were generated.
After the wave patterns were processed by the encoder, they combined into specific frequencies that targeted various regions of the human brain.
For example, under the impact of specific brainwaves and the encoder, the Left Brain, responsible for logical operations, would temporarily lose its numerical processing area, turning the person into a simpleton who could only perceive images.
Similarly, under the impact of specific wave patterns, the Right Brain, responsible for visuals, would turn the person into a temporary mathematical logic genius, but without any mental imagery.
As time passed, the expressions on the faces of all the experts present gradually became solemn.
The manufacturing process for the electromagnetic device was very simple; any science student could build it by hand.
However, the ingenuity lay not in the device itself, but in the [Encoder], which contained high-tech computational logic and techniques.
This meant that any wave pattern, after passing through this thumb-sized device, would be transformed into a heaven-defyingly refined wave pattern.
With further optimization and proper application, its uses could range from decrypting animal soundwaves into text to altering the auditory and visual perceptions of individuals or groups, or even directly influencing the world perception of all humanity.
This could truly be described as an illegal, heaven-defying black technology!
After a long while, every military industrial expert on the scene looked horrified, yet sounds of amazement echoed incessantly.
"Heavens, Jiang Zhe is a genius!"
"The Jiang Zhe who created this [Encoder] is truly a talent!"
"If this tool is deciphered, it could benefit zoologists worldwide, and it could also briefly turn people into puppets—informants who tell everything."
"I can't imagine how much easier the work of police and military agents would be if this illegal, heaven-defying black technology were produced."
"This Jiang Zhe—I previously thought he was just a simple science popularization host. Who would have thought he had this kind of skill? The device's technical process isn't difficult at all, but he is the first one to put it on a design blueprint."
"I finally freaking understand; it's not that our domestic technology is weak, but that there are so few scientists who dare to be so imaginative. If there were just a few more imaginative ones, wouldn't we have created this kind of device long ago?"
"Hahaha, I've heard about this science popularization decryption. I originally thought it wasn't anything significant, but I didn't expect that guy to truly have such skill. I must watch his next live stream!"
"..."
Soon, Director Wang's solemn expression relaxed. "Xiao Su, even one of our interns could produce this design blueprint. The process isn't hard; it's mainly that Jiang Zhe's thinking is very ingenious. How much is he asking for this technical drawing? If it's reasonable, I won't haggle."
Officer Su Cheng shook his head. "He didn't mention money, and I've already agreed to his prerequisite, which is within my power."
"This exquisite design blueprint, if used well, can prevent national secrets from leaking and help the military and police interrogate criminals, benefiting the people. But if used poorly... it's also a method for leaking black technology. We can manage these pros and cons. It won't do if he doesn't want money; our military won't take it for nothing."
Officer Su Cheng thought for a moment. "Alright then, I'll make the call. You can give whatever amount you see fit."
Director Wang left the conference room to make a call and returned soon after. "The higher-ups have decided to allocate 30 million to Mr. Jiang Zhe as payment for his creative capital. Xiao Su, get his card number, and we'll transfer it directly to him."
"Okay..."
After the handover, Officer Su Cheng didn't stay long. "Director Wang, can I be among the first to test it? I currently have a major drug case and a major serial murder case at the station. We only have suspects but no leads."
Director Wang nodded. "Of course, but aren't you afraid of violating civil rights? If you're discovered, you'll be sued. You'll either be dismissed or directly targeted by those with agendas."
"It doesn't matter. The military protects the country, and we protect the home. As long as I have the means, I'll use them. I might not be a good cop to the people, but to the country, if anyone dares to say they're better than me, I'll be the first to disagree."
"This..." Director Wang was shocked by Officer Su Cheng's words. "Alright, in two days, I'll have someone deliver it so you can be the first to test it."
...
After leaving the research institute, Officer Su Cheng dialed Jiang Zhe's number again.
After receiving the 30-million transfer, Jiang Zhe looked surprised, but it was fine; getting money was good too.
...
Time passed quietly.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Inside the dormitory building, on the television news screen.
A slender, beautifully dressed, and spirited Tang Xiaomei was sitting behind iron bars, wailing loudly.
"Dad, I was wrong; I provoked someone I shouldn't have."
"That damned passerby—I thought he was just a nobody, but who the hell knew he had so much influence!"
At this moment, the female reporter on the screen asked curiously, "Miss Tang, what does your father's corruption, bribery, tax evasion, forced buying, and demolition have to do with that passerby?"
Unexpectedly, Tang Xiaomei said without a shred of remorse, "Damn it, he must have drugged our group with some confusion potion; otherwise, I never would have spoken about my father's affairs."
The female reporter's mouth twitched. She really wanted to say, if it weren't for that kind passerby, your Tang family would have at least continued their many evil deeds, right?
But for the sake of decorum, the female reporter continued her professional fake smile. "Miss Tang, your current attitude toward confessing isn't very friendly~ This is harboring a criminal, and it's a live television broadcast!"
Unexpectedly, Tang Xiaomei continued her ways, pointing at the camera and cursing, "You bastard, don't let me catch you. Once I get out, you're going to get what's coming to you!"
Then the screen cut to a male host: "Midday News. As everyone has seen, Tang Mei, the daughter of Su City's Imperial Group, accidentally ran into a kind passerby at night. Using unknown means, the kind passerby got four of the nine people in the group to confess."
"The crimes they committed are valued as high as 2.71 billion."
"We hope the general public takes this as a warning!"
"At the same time, let us thank that kind passerby—but on the condition: do not break the law!"
The people watching this scene all clapped and cheered, especially those victims who had nowhere else to seek justice.
They sincerely thanked the great kindness of the passerby they had never met.
He had unintentionally removed a scourge for the people!
Watching the news, Wang Lin and Xiao Shiyi both looked at Jiang Zhe on the sofa. "Is that the eldest Miss Tang who offended you?"
"She looks quite brainless and very irritable!"
"Yeah, but it's fine. Evil people will be tormented by their own kind."
"Brother Wang, are you saying Brother Jiang is an evil person?"
"Not at all. Our Brother Jiang is the Mysterious Person; everything he does is right."
"Hmm? Brother Wang, your tone sounds a bit dissatisfied that you were the third to know he's the Mysterious Person?"
"No dissatisfaction. I'm the one with the best relationship with him normally, yet I wasn't the first to know. Sigh, plastic brotherhood!"
Hearing this, Jiang Zhe couldn't help but grin. "Ahem, it's nothing. Who told you to be working that night? Didn't I have Old Xiao bring the Genetic Serum to you? Alright, alright, get up and let's move. A big feast tonight."
"Let's go, let's go. I want the second-floor bedroom."
"I like high floors; I want the third floor."
"What about me?" Jiang Zhe asked with an innocent face.
The two gave a wicked smile and said in unison, "The boss lives on the first floor!!!"
"You guys... sigh, I'm speechless. Let's go, let's go."
Of course, Xiao Shiyi and Wang Lin were naturally joking; the top floor naturally belonged to Jiang Zhe.
...
While they were moving, inside the office of The First Police Station.
Officer Su Cheng was playing with the palm-sized device.
"Captain, is this the device made from Jiang Zhe's design blueprint?"
"Captain, is it really that miraculous? Can it change a person's perception or even make them tell the truth?"
"Captain, how does this device compare to truth serum?"
Officer Su Cheng stood up. "Let's go, brothers. Follow me to the interrogation room to test it out first."
Captain Zhou asked worriedly, "Xiao Su, what if someone finds out?"
Officer Su Cheng responded with total indifference, "In my eyes, major suspects have no human rights. If we continue to let them be, how many innocent people will suffer, and how many anti-drug police will be sacrificed? Don't look at me with that expression. This time, I'm standing on the moral high ground and criticizing—and I'm not just criticizing, I'm going to take action."
"Sigh, it's this recklessness of yours. You'll suffer for it sooner or later!"
Helplessly, Captain Zhou led the group, each with different expressions, to the interrogation room.
