The third possibility is a time tunnel.
It's no secret that time tunnels allow you to see the past and travel to the future. Anyone can experience a time tunnel firsthand at a history museum for a fee; all of history can be presented in holographic form within the tunnel.
Based on the available information, the era in which this "wind-chasing boy" lived was indeed very similar to ancient times thousands of years ago.
In the past, people would have easily dismissed two or even all three of these possibilities. But now, everyone is being cautious.
Any possibility presents an opportunity for human society today.
Then, a careful person discovered an important clue: Li Lechen had looked up the SW18 virus that infected F001 in the library, and the keyword he used to search for it was HI25 virus.
The HI25 virus is a virus that broke out in human society a very, very long time ago. In 4020, it is like smallpox in the past.
But clearly, this person who claims to be from the exclusive zone is so eager to find a cure for the SW18 virus that he has infected his clones with the virus and is now using a wide-net approach.
Such an important person, such an important breakthrough point. If we hadn't discovered them, so be it. But now that we have, we can't let the opportunity slip away.
Therefore, of the three issues that originally needed to be discussed, the first two were put aside due to the fact that they were major issues that could potentially change the current state of human existence.
The vote began to decide whether the world should mobilize to help this being—who may have come from other races on Earth, from outer space, or even from the past—solve the urgent problem of preventing and controlling the SW18 virus.
The vote was unsurprisingly passed unanimously.
Thus, without F001's knowledge, his plan had already been made public and forcibly implemented by the government.
There is currently no effective way to prevent or control the SW18 virus, but it is very easy for the virus to reproduce. And when governments want to implement a global policy, their methods are often simplistic and crude.
They directly added culture medium containing the SW18 virus to circulating water and chemical oxygen, so that the vast majority of civilians would be infected with the SW18 virus through their normal lives.
The General Department of Health played a very important role in this matter.
The health index, originally used to measure the health status of each person, now has an additional index: the SW18 virus positivity index.
Residents who do not test positive for the SW18 virus will have their health index displayed in red, regardless of their actual value.
This is very dangerous.
Although there is no clear indication that those with health issues will be humanitarianally destroyed, those with red health readings are definitely special cases.
As it turned out, this concern soon became a reality.
The Resource Coordination Committee discovered that by addressing the third issue, the first two problems could also be resolved.
Residents who do not contract the SW18 virus within the specified time will be subject to humanitarian annihilation; those who can provide an effective treatment plan for the SW18 virus will receive super-A-level resident treatment.
They've always only had permanent residency in the safe zone. What does "super A-level resident treatment" mean? It means that all resources will be allocated to them, making them even more privileged than government employees.
Therefore, the goals of the entire population became: first, to get infected with the SW18 virus to avoid being directly and humanitarianly destroyed; second, to develop a solution to prevent and control the SW18 virus so as to enjoy the benefits of super-A-grade housing.
Faced with such high pressure and attractive benefits, a vigorous wave of scientific research has swept the world.
A massive computing system is responsible for collecting and eliminating treatment options. Tens of millions of treatment options are listed, rejected, listed again, and rejected again.
F001 never imagined that his purely personal act would suddenly escalate into a global government action.
Simply because of his special status.
Of course, the SW18 virus, which was a disaster two thousand years ago, is now a minor problem in the eyes of the world, even though people all over the world are infected with it. It's like getting a common cold, which can be solved by drinking a packet of Banlangen (a traditional Chinese medicine).
Moreover, the government has already opened public hospitals free of charge, and anyone who needs treatment due to SW18 infection can receive free treatment by presenting proof of infection.
However, no one wanted to recover so quickly, and everyone was trying various treatment options, making unremitting efforts to obtain the treatment of a super A-level resident.
However, even with the mobilization of the entire population, the research and development progress remained stagnant.
This really has nothing to do with effort. Because of the distorted development of science and technology, humanity has almost lost the ability to innovate. Everything operates according to established rules, and all solutions to problems are the simplest and most brutal methods. Diseases that can be treated with organ transplants simply don't have any other, less advanced treatment options.
In this situation, research initiated by ordinary residents is even less effective than that conducted by experts two thousand years ago. At least the experts two thousand years ago could conduct specialized research on the characteristics of the SW18 virus, while ordinary residents are simply relying on luck.
What they needed to do was try everything they had never tried before, even mud mixed with recycled water, invisible paint combined with satiating pills and antidotes—anything that could be combined, they would try.
Even though everyone came up with all sorts of creative ideas and combinations, the system kept prompting that the solutions were duplicated because there were too many people.
F001 was truly amazed. He initially thought that with a budget of several hundred million, if two thousand people couldn't come up with a solution, surely twenty thousand would be enough?
And what was the result?
Now, the whole world is mobilized, with 80 million people trying to arrange and combine different combinations. Each person is trying to arrange more than one combination. Three days have passed, and there is still no result.
It has to be said that F001 was somewhat desperate. But when he thought of Zhou Mi, who had already been infected with the SW18 virus, and the fact that if he failed completely, Zhou Mi would only face death, F001 didn't even dare to despair.
At this moment, Li Lechen was in no better shape.
F001 escaped successfully, using the bathroom where there were no surveillance cameras.
However, if someone can hide in the bathroom for ten minutes, half an hour, or even an hour, wouldn't it drive the nurses crazy if they couldn't see them for a whole day and night?
So even though the bathroom door was locked from the inside, the nurses, after coming in several times and not seeing anyone, forced the door open.
It's important to know that there have been cases of patients experiencing sudden emergencies in the bathroom before; it's better to be safe than sorry.
However, to everyone's surprise, the bathroom door, which was originally locked, was kicked open and found to be completely empty inside.
There are security cameras outside; they clearly saw someone enter the bathroom.
The bathroom door was locked from the inside, and there were no windows inside.
But the problem is, the person is gone.
The person went into the bathroom and disappeared several hours later.
This is so absurd that even Conan wouldn't be able to discover the truth, okay?
