Technological Hegemony

Mr. Victor was very angry. This morning, as usual, he went to the lake, carrying a small bag of corn kernels, and preparing to feed the wild ducks, he found the body floating by the lake.

A dozen tan wild ducks floated on the lake, their bodies were incomplete. At this time, the weather had become hot, and a large group of mosquitoes murmured around the dead bodies in the water.

Mr. Victor has been out of anger. Since retiring, he has come to Lake Constance to feed wild ducks every day. These little things are the spiritual sustenance of the lonely old man. Several of them were just born this spring.

After receiving a report from Mr. Victor, the police attached great importance to them. They immediately came to the scene, but saw that the victims were only a group of mallards that are very common in Europe, and immediately lost interest.

难民 Since the refugees came to Germany, the police have become very busy. The police force has expanded year after year, but it still cannot keep up with the rising crime rate.

"What, it's just a group of ducks." The police muttered reluctantly.

Local police also have a backlog of 17 cases of sexual assault, 48 cases of robbery, 132 cases of theft, and a religious conflict that attacked the Catholic Church.

Faced with a complicated and difficult situation, the police were already anxious. How could they be interested in investigating a group of dead ducks.

"Do you know who did it?" The policeman asked Mr. Victor.

"Unclear, but I fed them yesterday," said Mr. Victor.

Although the police were reluctant, they still took the wild duck's body out of the river. When the tragic wound appeared in the sight of everyone, everyone was shocked.

"Bite the neck directly, shouldn't it be the crocodile?"

不要 "Don't talk nonsense, there are no crocodiles in the lake."

"Who would do that? Fox or wolf?"

"The fox goes down to eat ducks, but you can think of it."

"You look at these wounds, they are deep and small. The attack is under the wild ducks, it seems that the fish is dry."

"A fish that can bite a wild duck's thigh in one bite? Is there such a cruel fish in the world?"

Everyone expressed doubts that the death of these wild ducks was cruel, and their bodies were almost torn.

After discussion, the police decided to collect the corpses and send them to the animal protection agency.

Uh ...

Munich Germany.

Investigative reporter Anna drove a Volkswagen Beetle, left Munich, and drove along Route 96 towards the Lake Constance area.

Anna Anna works for the Munich World News. Although the name carries the word "World", it is an out-of-the-box lace tabloid. It mainly reports bizarre talks around the world, and some readers in Germany.

The readers of the Munich World News usually believe that vampires really exist. They believe that Atlantis did not perish. Instead, they turned the entire continent into a spaceship. The whole family left the earth. They believed that there were bigfoot in the Alps, and Bigfoot is a close relative of the Himalayan snowman.

In short, the Munich World News is prepared for these people with excess curiosity.

Recently, the editorial department received a call from readers. They revealed all kinds of strange things that happened in the Lake Constance area, murdered wild ducks, old women who had their fingers bitten by strange fishes, and mysterious ships on the lake.

The editor-in-chief felt that someone should be sent to investigate, so this glorious task fell on the young Anna.

After several hours of driving, Anna finally reached the Lake Constance area. Although it is a well-known travel sacred place, and the lake is beautiful, Anna has no time to watch the scenery here, and found the first witness of the trip directly.

That is a couple working at a nearby rubber factory. They have no children. Her husband is passionate about fishing. He showed Anna the strange fish he caught from the lake.

怪 This strange fish has a silver flat body, sharp teeth, huge dark eyes, and well-developed muscles.

"It's weird," said the rubber factory worker. "I lived by Lake Constance all my life. I've been fishing in the lake since I was six. I've never seen such a strange fish. Believe me, it shouldn't be here. Species. "

"There have been many rumors recently by the lake. There is a retired old lady in the town next door. She was bitten by a strange fish and continued to go north, near the nature reserve. The local wild duck is disappearing quickly ..."

The rubber worker talked about a lot of strange things that happened recently. He linked the strange things with the strange fish and got a terrible conclusion.

"It must be a conspiracy of the authorities!" The rubber worker said in a low voice. "The authorities are conducting biochemical experiments nearby, and the waste is discharged in the lake, which has caused all the fish in the lake to mutate!"

Anna is not surprised at all. Most readers of the Munich World News are conspiracy theories. Anna herself firmly believes that aliens are all around us, posing as humans.

Anna took a picture of the fish, and then passed it on to her classmate who taught biology at the University of Munich and asked him to look up the literature and determine the species of strange fish.

Then, Anna and the rubber workers bid farewell, drove along Lake Constance all the way north, visited several other witnesses for two days, and finally came to Mr. Victor's house.

Suddenly it rained outside. Mr. Victor enthusiastically invited Anna into the house. The 72-year-old solitary old man brewed coffee, brought cream and sugar, and a potato pie from his neighbor.

A cup of hot coffee with butter quickly made Anna warm up. She lowered the cup, picked up the recording pen, and began investigating Victor's experience.

"That's really terrifying." Victor rubbed his hands, lingering in his heart, and then with the light of his eyes, looked at the Mauser double-barreled shotgun hanging above the fireplace.

When he was young, he used that shotgun to hit a lot of wild ducks. It may have been found by conscience. After retirement, Victor changed and became a well-known animal protectionist.

"The ducks were all dead. I called the police, but the police were unwilling to investigate the cause of the death, so I went into the reserve alone with a shotgun and looked for the killer." Victor said.

On the north side of Lake Constance, there is a large forest inhabited by wild ducks, foxes, hares and so on. Usually visitors are not allowed to enter there.

"Have you found the killer?" Anna asked curiously.

Victor shook his hands slightly, then said in a husky voice, "To be honest, I'm not sure what I saw."

"You can't be sure what you see?" Anna immediately became interested, and she heard a dangerous smell from Victor's words.

Victor nodded. "Soon after I entered the reserve, I heard the hounds roaring. Mr. Enrique next door had a mixed-breed shepherd named Samurai. I was familiar with the samurai's cry, but that day, the samurai's The voice was clearly wrong, as if with great panic. "

"I thought the samurai and the wolf living in the woods had encountered it, so I hurriedly picked up the shotgun, but when I approached, I found that there were no wild wolves around, and the warrior was barking at the lake, it seems that he found it Big fish. "

"The samurai is a very clever dog. Not only can he swim, he can catch fish too. If he sees a fish, he can rush to catch it and have a beautiful meal."

"But the samurai that day did not intend to rush into the lake at all, staring alertly and horribly at the lake, as if he saw something evil."

"I shouted at it, Samurai, what did you see? Why not catch it, would you still be afraid of a fish?"

"The samurai heard my voice ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~, turning his head, as if finally looking for a savior, he yelled at me two times, and seemed to want me to pass."

"But at this moment, the calm on the lake was broken, and a silvery thing suddenly jumped out of the lake, biting on the samurai's throat."

"The poor shepherd was looking at me with a tilted head and didn't notice the attack from under the lake. The blood was sprayed out immediately. The samurai's eyes were black and a scream was made. He fell into the shoal and splashed in the shoal. , As if a group of water snakes were squirming fast. "

"I was frightened by the sudden situation, and it took me a full minute to return to my spirit, and I ran to the place where the samurai fell down, but when I ran to that shallow ..."

Speaking of this, Victor suddenly choked his voice and began to twitch all over his body.

Anna asked in a hurry: "What did you see? What did you see?"

Victor raised his head, bloodshot in his eyes, and said hoarsely, "Blood, the blood of the samurai has turned that shoal."

"It's dead!" Anna covered her mouth and looked terrified.

Victor shook his head gently, "No, I don't know, because we searched the shoal and we couldn't find the samurai's body, it just disappeared like that, completely disappeared in front of me, even a bone, a piece No residue was left. "

Anna felt her heart beating, she leaned backwards, and her breathing became rapid.

Suddenly, Anna remembered the strange fish the rubber worker had caught from the lake, so she hurriedly took out her mobile phone and opened the photo in the album.

"Yes! It's this cruel thing!"

Victor stared at the photo for a moment and exclaimed.
