Chapter 222 Cube Cage
Finally, the containment object was found. A human figure that was independent of the air and could move autonomously, if this is not an anomaly, then what is an anomaly?
It would be too arbitrary to conclude that the containment object was the cause of only two thefts that were not right.
Everyone believed in Mo Qiong, and they just tried it out, trying not to miss any anomaly.
Unexpectedly, there was a major discovery immediately. Those two very inconspicuous thefts were really caused by the containment object.
At this moment, it was finally confirmed that their ideas and the direction of investigation were correct.
The news spread, and the team members were very excited. With a clear clue, it would be easy to deal with.
"It turned out to be a shadow. It is so hidden. It overlaps with the human shadow and disguises itself as someone else's shadow. It is so real that it is difficult to distinguish. I really didn't notice it at all. Mo Qiong, you can actually detect it!" You Xin said.
After he got the news from Mo Qiong, he was shocked. Chris was just under his feet just now. He felt surprised when he recalled this kind of thing.
If Mo Qiong hadn't told him, he would never have thought that Chris had come to their place for a visit!
Mo Qiong said: "This is not a big problem. I just found out that its color depth is not right. That is to say, it will not change with the brightness of the surrounding light. As long as we are careful, it is easy to identify whether it is following us. Just shine a strong light on yourself. If the color of the shadow does not change, it is definitely it."
Under normal circumstances, the shadow of a person will change brightness with the light of the environment in which the person is located, but the shadow of the containment just now will not change, which is a huge flaw.
It's just that such a big flaw is usually not noticed by people without intention. After all, who has nothing to do and suddenly feels that the color of their shadow is a little wrong?
It's just that Mo Qiong has a strong observation ability, and this situation was set by himself, just waiting for Chris to come, so he is naturally alert at all times, so he noticed something wrong.
Even so, if You Xin hadn't suddenly broken into the bathroom and let the shadow take the opportunity to leave, resulting in a significant difference between the before and after comparison, Mo Qiong really wouldn't have thought that there was something wrong with his shadow.
Yan Wei said in the channel: "But how to catch him? A shadow is invulnerable to swords and guns, and is immune to water and fire. I originally thought that strong light could make it invisible, or force it to be compressed into a point with light. But now that it does not change brightness with the surrounding light, it is naturally impossible to be hurt by light. It can be said that it is truly invincible."
A shadow that is not afraid of light is really immortal.
But why should we consider how to hurt him? That's Chris...
Mo Qiong rolled his eyes and said: "It's still a small problem, Yan Wei, a simple closed secret room can trap him to death. Don't look at this shadow without thickness, as if it can penetrate everywhere, in fact, as long as it is a light-proof secret room, it will never get out. This can be seen from his action pattern."
As he said, he asked the peripheral personnel to post the shadow's escape video in the chat room channel of the Darwin team.
As everyone watched, he said, "It left through the window, which means it can't go through the wall directly. You see, when it was halfway out of the window, a half shadow appeared on the wall of the apartment 50 meters away. It's obvious that it's a projection, a two-dimensional unit, and it can only move on a plane."
"I want to ask you to take a projector and play a movie in a closed secret room. We are outside the secret room. Can you let us see this movie?"
After Mo Qiong said this, how could everyone not understand? In fact, after watching the video, everyone also analyzed the characteristics of the shadow.
An independent shadow can move and jump on various planes at the speed of light through projection.
It can disguise itself as a human shadow and change its shape in a fake way, but the brightness does not change with the surrounding light. After all, it is not really someone else's shadow.
So Mo Qiong couldn't locate the shadow and track it. After all, the shadow is ever-changing and has a variety of images. It's not that it can't be found at all, but it just requires luck. Mo Qiong just happened to lock the shadow's appearance at the moment.
Of course, if it is really locked, then there is no point in the shadow changing again, and it will still be shot no matter how it changes.
"Everyone, the most troublesome thing about it is its speed. The projection of the speed of light allows it to travel freely in the city. If you want to catch it, you can only use a three-dimensional cube to pack it up. In this way, the six two-dimensional surfaces in a cube become its only foothold. The closed cube is the shadow's "full universe." Mo Qiong said.
The world is restricted, and no matter how fast it is, it can't escape their Five Fingers Mountain.
You Xin immediately said: "This is easy. We set up an ambush in advance and transform each hiding place to make it look normal, but in fact it can immediately close all the passages. The doors, windows, and wall cracks must be able to be closed at any time, and they are airtight."
Mo Qiong smiled and said: "Then our bait will really not be bitten..."
You Xin was stunned. Yes, the news of their several hiding places that attracted people to steal has been released.
The shadow followed him and Mo Qiong to this folk custom of "rich lady" without anyone noticing. It was Mo Qiong's careful observation that discovered the shadow.
But who knows if the shadow has also gone to other places? It's been two days since we put out the bait, so we should at least know about the other places, right?
If they rashly change the place and Chris sees it, then all their efforts will fail.
"It seems that we can only design a new place to hide the money and spread the gossip again." You Xin said.
Mo Qiong said: "Too much would be too suspicious. There are stories about money circulating on the street one after another. Do you think these baits are not suspicious enough? I'm afraid he thinks Mombasa is too dangerous, so just change the city!"
Just because Chris follows his character doesn't mean he's stupid. If he fully realizes that these places where money is hidden are their fault, he will definitely find a reason to leave Mombasa! Change another place to continue his great career of saving money.
"Then what to do? You tell me." You Xin said.
Mo Qiong said: "Prepare a portable cubic containment box with a side length of two meters. The more the better, arrange a hundred peripheral personnel to carry it and ambush near each bait. Once a shadow is found, immediately surround all the planes it can walk on." exit."
"Think about it, it just left through the window. If there was someone guarding the window at that time, prepared such a cubic box, and blocked the window in advance, then when it went out from the window, it would not be projected into the apartment opposite, but into the box! When the time comes to close the box, it’s caught!”
You Xin said: "What if it's too late? Once it runs away and we are prepared, we may never have a chance again."
"That's why I said prepare enough boxes! The more the better, and they should be portable enough to be hidden on your body. If it runs out of the window and is projected on the opposite wall, then surround that wall!" Mo Qiong said.
"Surround that wall... Understand, I know what to do!" You Xin said.
A shadow is on a wall. If it wants to move, it has to move to the edge of the wall and then be projected onto the wall behind it.
But what if three-dimensional people surround this wall? Look where this shadow is running away! how? It can also snap up from the wall, and then run away like a paper man on the road? If this containment object can really do this, then even if it is powerful, the Darwin team can only admit defeat and think of other solutions.
But based on the current situation, it should only be able to move on a flat surface.
Use a board to cover a flat wall, and the shadow will not run far away, but will be folded and printed on the board. If the surroundings are tight enough, the shadow can only move on the plane they provide.
By constantly paving the way for it, you can easily trap the two-dimensional shadow by taking advantage of the three dimensions.
If you make a three-dimensional box with an opening in advance, it will be easier to catch.
In just a few inches, the world of shadow is restricted, trapping it in the box in the palm of your hand.
