Amy was a statistic expert at a secret government research site, and her current subject was a classified series. Her mission was to study the behavior of substance Z, an intelligent alien material.
One day, she saw a screen flashing a severe warning. The status of the structure where substance Z was stored had shifted to 'DANGER'. Anxiously, she began to summarize the data she had just collected. According to the data, the substance was being stimulated in unpredictable ways using energy as a source.
To figure out the substance's specific behavior pattern, Amy first simulated the records of a previous specimen on the lab computer. Her strategy was to understand their strength and weaknesses. She had to stay up for several nights for this research and suffered from chronic stress, but her style was never to give up.
Suddenly, a report came in that an unknown spectator was looking through the laboratory's window. He was no ordinary person. His skin emitted a faint spectrum of purple, and he looked like a thin membrane was stretched over a human skeleton.
Before contacting the security team, Amy quickly speculated on why this significant visitor had appeared. Was he somehow related to the subsequent manifestation of substance Z?
An alarm blared, and substance Z began to struggle to escape its storage container by absorbing sufficient energy. Amy couldn't understand why this stable substance was suddenly showing such a severe reaction. She hurried to write a report and had to submit it to her superior. Knowing the information she had was insufficient, she instructed her team to supplement the additional data and analysis.
She agonized. "What did we miss? What is the source of all this?"
Then, her eyes turned toward the subsequent spectator. A chilling thought crossed her mind: he might be the very source of this entire shift.
