This is not a novel, but a popular science book with a documentary style.
Under normal circumstances, Su Man might not be interested in these things, but after experiencing so much, Su Man also wanted to know more about similar things.
The book is not very thick, it is a scientist's autobiography.
The content of the book mainly revolves around some anti-human experiments.
For example, in the 1940s and 1950s, some doctors abroad used electric shock therapy on children with mental illnesses, which eventually caused those children to become more violent.
There are also experiments conducted on newborns to test whether fear is innate. The subjects were frightened by different things every day. As a result, the newborns developed serious mental illnesses when they grew up, and the children's lives were ruined.
The author condemned these actions and believed that people should not use their fellow human beings for experiments.
As Su Man was flipping through the book, she suddenly saw a familiar name in the table of contents.
"Old Stories of Pingcheng"
She realized something, quickly jumped to the corresponding location and started looking through it.
As mentioned above, decades ago, a compass was something that every household had, and more people still looked at watches rather than using mobile phones to check time.
But when they passed Heicheng University, all the equipment malfunctioned, leaving them baffled.
It was initially determined that there was an unknown substance here that affected the surrounding magnetic field.
Soon, a small team was sent to conduct research at Pingcheng University, which was still a factory at the time.
After a series of tests, the team leader, Captain You, suggested that the magnetic field here has a certain impact on human genes and recommended using humans for experiments.
At first, the superiors agreed, thinking it was just a small test to distinguish east, west, south and north, so they sent some soldiers over.
But before long, these soldiers went crazy and injured, and even Captain You was held accountable.
The research team was disbanded and Captain You disappeared.
More than a decade later, the incident had been forgotten. After all, there was no internet or media back then, and the incident was so bizarre that telling the public would easily cause panic, so it was suppressed.
Later, after the reform and opening up, a school was built here and everything became history.
If the author of this book wasn't from Pingcheng, he probably wouldn't know so much. It was just that in his opinion, the people led by Captain You were too radical in their pursuit of scientific breakthroughs, which led to the tragedy.
Only Su Man knows that the truth is far from simple.
