Human dimension reduction

Qiao Wan put her hands on the steering wheel, and her fingers unconsciously twitched irritably. There was still half a minute left before the red light, and the traffic ahead was winding like a dragon, which made her a little impatient, and subconsciously licked her lips.

She groped and pulled out a pack of flat cigarette packs from the storage box in front of the co-pilot, pulled out a cigarette roughly and put it in her mouth, without lighting it, the long-lost faint smell of smoke made her mood finally After stabilizing, he stretched out his finger and tapped the phone screen again.

The dialing interface jumps to "Doctor Zhao". After a long beep, the sweet mechanical female voice begins to broadcast the program's words: "Hello, the phone you dialed has been turned off, please dial later..."

Qiao Wan glanced at the screen anxiously, there were dozens of missed calls hanging on it, which made her look a little ugly.

Qiao Wan hadn't planned to come here by herself. The aunt at home had packed Qiao Zhou's daily necessities, and it was okay to ask the secretary to help out. Anyway, she had already completed the hospitalization procedures in the morning, and other daily necessities can be bought in the nursing home.

But she was on the verge of speaking, and the secretary was patiently waiting for her order. Dr. Zhao's words in the morning suddenly appeared in Qiao Wan's mind, "Aren't you going to see him?"

To see him?What catches your eyes?

The siblings grew up together, and after watching it for so many years, they were bored to death. Not to mention the warmth of blood, Qiao Wan even wondered whether her younger brother, who was abnormal since childhood, really understood "family" The deeper meaning of the word.

That's an emotionless monster.

No matter how much love is instilled in him, there is no reply at all, whether it is pleading with all his strength or angry scolding, he can logically understand their sorrow, but he cannot respond to it emotionally.

It's true that Qiao Zhou is a genius, young and smart, able to play with all regular things, but this genius is hollow, and there is nothing in the gorgeous shell.

Although she had rarely seen Qiao Zhou since she was an adult, she couldn't help but tremble when she heard that he was going to be hospitalized for mental illness.

A kind of relief that "it's finally here" and the upcoming meeting made her nervous and anxious, until she signed the admission consent form as a relative, she didn't say a word to Qiao Zhou.

But when faced with the secretary's questioning eyes, she still swallowed the words involuntarily: "No, it's nothing, I have something to go out in the afternoon, please help me to watch over the factory, I will come back at four o'clock Small meeting."

Anyway, it was the last time, so she took a look at it from a distance. After all, they were relatives connected by blood. Even if Qiao Zhou didn't care, she couldn't let her go.

However, for some reason, none of the phones in the Third Hospital could be reached. From the attending doctor to the front desk receptionist, everyone lost contact. .

What happened?

The Third Hospital is not some unknown small clinic, and it is impossible for such a large-scale loss of contact to occur.

What the hell is going on?

The red light jumped twice and turned into a green light. Qiao Wan turned the steering wheel into the side road. The trees on both sides were verdant and green, and the tall tree canopies blocked the sun. Only scattered gold-like light spots were scattered in the middle of the road. Qiao Wan drove the car , His brows frowned.

How come there are so many people going to the Third Hospital?

The only destination of this road is the Third Hospital surrounded by mountains. There were very few vehicles when we came in the morning. After all, it is a hospital that requires some money to enter. It is normal that not many people come.But now, every ten seconds or so, a car roared past Qiao Wan, and each of them stepped on the gas pedal to the bottom, rushing up the mountain like a racing car, which stunned Qiao Wan.

She didn't have any doubts for a long time. A temporary road block appeared in front of her. Two traffic policemen waved their hands and told her to pull over and turn around, indicating that the road ahead was blocked.

Qiao Wan watched a car whizzing past her. The traffic police had no intention of stopping her, and she became more suspicious. She pressed the window of the car and said, "What's going on in front?"

"Hello ma'am, there's been an accident ahead, please go back now." The young traffic policeman saluted her and said neither humble nor overbearing.

"What happened? Is there an accident in the third hospital? My brother is still in the hospital, and I'm a family member of the patient...Why can't I go up?" Qiao Wan blurted out.

Hearing these words, the traffic policeman's expression changed, and a trace of pity flashed through his eyes: "Sorry ma'am, this is an order from the superior. We are still investigating potential accidents ahead, please return."

After hearing this, Qiao Wan stayed in the driver's seat blankly for a long time, as if she was persuaded by the traffic police, she reversed the car without saying a word, turned around, and passed away down the mountain.

Another traffic policeman came over and looked at the rear of the car: "Doctor?"

He subconsciously avoided another answer.

The traffic policeman who stopped Qiao Wan sighed and didn't let him take any chances: "The patient's family members are here to find my younger brother."

"Ah..." The other traffic policeman said something, didn't know what to say, and said dryly after a while, "It's a pity."

"What the hell is that? Why did it suddenly...swallow the entire hospital?" He lowered his voice, recalling the moment when he received the order to stop the car before, his whole body shivered.

To be honest, if he were to take command on the spot, he would not only have to seal off the road up the mountain, but he would also have to enclose the entire mountain top. It would be better to build a fully enclosed frame to cover the top of the mountain. The scene is bloody and terrifying, but there is really no way to explain it to people——

Why on earth did a third hospital disappear out of thin air?

It really just disappeared out of thin air, most of the mountain was empty, and the building that stood there evaporated out of thin air, leaving only the most primitive bare ground and a flat black hole.

Yes, what stays in place is a black hole.

This thing is pitch black, more than 20 meters high and hundreds of meters wide, but it has no thickness, not at all. Standing on the side of this thing and looking at it, you can't even see its existence. It is so flat that it exceeds The limits of what matter can achieve.

In theory, something with no thickness should be impossible to exist, but it just appeared here, and it is so big that I wish it could catch everyone's eyes.

This black hole swallowed up the Third Hospital, and the first reaction of everyone who saw it was this.

But they can't do anything about it.

What is this?How did it come about?Is the swallowed person still alive?How to save people?

The plane of the black hole is like a pool of stagnant water, deep and dark inside. They throw things into it, and the black hole swallows them peacefully without any feedback. When the drone flies in, there is no signal. Cut off by the plane, the little white mouse went in, but all the electronic equipment it carried failed, and the rope tied to it also broke silently.

All this made people hesitate, and the superiors did not dare to rashly send people into the rescue.

The two traffic policemen were whispering here. She never expected that Qiao Wan, who was stopped by them, had no plans to go down the mountain at all. She found an inconspicuous place to stop the car, took out a pair of sneakers from the trunk and changed her feet. Putting on the loafers, locked the car door and plunged into the nearby jungle.

The Third Hospital is located in a scenic area, surrounded by mountains and Jinghu Lake. There is only one road up the mountain, but people can go where cars cannot go.

Qiao Wan has a stubborn feeling in her bones. If she wants to go up the mountain, and she has a valid reason to do it, then she must do it.

The trail that no one has opened up is very difficult to walk, and there are overgrown bushes and weeds. Fortunately, Qiao Wan is wearing long pants, and the mountain is gentle, so it is not difficult to climb. She tried to climb in a direction parallel to the road. In order not to get lost, a pair of white and soft hands were quickly worn out by rough branches.

The mobile phone in her pants pocket buzzed and vibrated, Qiao Wan didn't have time to read the news, rested and rested along the way, and barely walked to a place with a slightly wider terrain when the sun was setting.

The mountain below is a bit concave, and the building of the Third Hospital is built there, just in a posture surrounded by mountains, Qiao Wan can see the back of the hospital building and the small park where the patients take a walk and rest as soon as they look down—

It should be like this.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Qiao Wan froze in the woods.

What about the stretch of hospital buildings?What about the small park?

What is that flat black hole?Why is the ground bare?

On the bare ground below, people in military uniforms and white coats came and went in a hurry. A depressive atmosphere surrounded the crowd, and various unknown and large instruments were placed chaotically around. Only then did Qiao Wan know that he was on the way up the mountain. What were the vehicles that passed by her carrying? During the period of her sluggishness, a steady stream of unfamiliar instruments and personnel got off the vehicles.

This place has turned into a large open-air research institute, with the voices of people intertwined, soldiers and researchers all walking in a hurry, and everyone's expressions are solemn and serious, as if they are facing an unsolvable question that must be answered.

"What the hell is this..." Qiao Wan murmured to herself, and tremblingly took out her vibrating mobile phone from her pants pocket. It was her secretary who called. She said she had a meeting at four o'clock but never returned. He didn't answer either, probably the secretary was in a hurry.

"Mr. Qiao? Where are you? There is a meeting at four o'clock. How long will it take you to arrive? The department head has been waiting for a long time."

When the secretary's tactful urging voice came, Qiao Wan didn't seem to listen to it, her eyes were still staring down, and her tone seemed to be sleepwalking: "I...I'm in the third hospital...the hospital is gone..."

"What's gone?" The secretary didn't understand what she said, and wanted to ask again, but the other party had already hung up.

The call with a weak signal automatically hangs up. Qiao Wan holds the phone and sits on the ground like a fool. She sits until the screen turns off automatically. Wi-Fi, turn off the data flow, turn on the camera, raise the phone up with trembling hands, and press the camera button down.

"Experiment failed! Still can't detect signal!"

The young researcher guarding a screen roared at the top of his lungs.

In the hastily erected military tent not far away, the atmosphere was almost frozen. A group of soldiers with stars and spikes on their shoulders stood at the long table, each with ugly expressions.

"It disappeared so suddenly?" A handsome middle-aged soldier asked in disbelief.

He already knew the answer to this sentence and confirmed it twice, but faced with such an unreasonable situation, he couldn't help but ask it again, wishing he was dreaming.

"It wasn't sudden, it lasted for three to 10 minutes," answered a young researcher standing beside him. He seemed to be in his early thirties, with a serious expression and a bookish look. The trace of the Third Hospital, there is only a big gap here, and the video records only captured this very vague movement."

He used the remote control to turn on the projector hanging in front of the tent, and an image that was repeated more than a dozen times immediately jumped out on the screen.

The people present had almost turned the 20-minute video over and over again to watch it, but when it was played again, they quickly quieted down and focused their eyes on the screen.

The signal captured by the satellite seems to have been disturbed all the time. The picture is the same as that of the TV more than ten years ago, with snowflakes and colorful horizontal stripes jumping. It was in place, but very quickly, as if a line cut from east to west, it was erased from the center of the screen at a constant speed and straight, leaving only the mountain rocks. After 23 minutes, the Third Hospital disappeared without a trace.

Watching this video made everyone's scalps tingle, and they fell into a brief silence again.

The line that wiped out the hospital is now outside, allowing people to study it peacefully, but what about the third hospital that was eaten by it?What about the people inside?

"Still can't see what's going on inside?" The person sitting in the first place turned his head and asked. He is not young, his hair and eyebrows are dyed frosty white, and his back is still as straight as a steel gun. "I have already reported to the chief, Beijing People are coming soon, the disappearance of more than 500 people is not a trivial matter, how to explain to the people is also a problem, publicity and public opinion are in charge of, our task is to save people, but it is good to save one person.”

He glanced around with eagle-like sharp eyes, and said solemnly: "The chief ordered, save people at all costs!"
