"Indeed, you are about to die."
"What did you find out?"
"They're planning to poison you?"
Xing Baohua looked up at Lei Jun, who was pouring water, and said, "Lei Zi, have the purchasing department buy me a few silver needles and hairpins. Not 925, but 999."
Lei Jun didn't move, gave an awkward smile, and looked at Captain Han, saying, "They wouldn't use arsenic to poison President Xing, would they?"
He then said to Xing Baohua, "Mr. Xing, the silver needle can only detect arsenic trioxide."
Captain Han said, "They're planning to use polonium. It's a character with the metal radical and the divination radical."
Xing Baohua was pondering this matter when his expression suddenly changed drastically. They actually used this thing.
Perhaps noticing Xing Baohua's changed expression, Captain Han asked, "You know this thing?"
Lei Jun said, "It's a radioactive element in the periodic table, with atomic number 84. It was discovered by Marie Curie and her husband over a hundred years ago. It also has three isotopes, the most important of which is polonium-210."
Captain Han smiled and nodded at Lei Jun, saying, "College students are different; they can just talk off the cuff."
Then he asked, "Is this thing very expensive?"
Lei Jun nodded and said, "It's very expensive. If you want to use this to kill President Xing, it will cost an astronomical price. Just a tiny grain of fine salt is enough to take President Xing's life."
Moreover, polonium is one of the rarest elements, and it generally only exists in uranium or thorium ores in nature.
Its abundance is only one part per trillion, making extraction extremely difficult. Therefore, polonium is generally synthesized artificially, most commonly through the decay of bismuth, a process that can only be carried out in a nuclear reactor.
Captain Han joked, "Only your CEO Xing has the ability to withstand the most expensive poison. Alright, be careful with your diet lately. I'm going to the nuclear research institute to see if they have any solutions."
After Captain Han left, Xing Baohua started calling the medical research company in Po County.
Because they also develop magnetic resonance imaging and other technologies there. They are also researching some radioactive materials.
"I need instruments to detect radioactive elements. Can you get me a few instruments to detect polonium?"
"If not, then we'll order from all over the world. We'll buy from whoever has it, by any means necessary. If they won't sell it, tell me their address, and I'll have someone rob it."
This was the first time Lei Jun had seen Xing Baohua shout hysterically into the phone. Perhaps she only acted this way when her life was truly at stake.
Not knowing how to comfort him, Lei Jun stepped forward and said, "President Xing, we can just eat in the cafeteria. If you're worried, I'll taste a few bites for you first."
