Not Cold [Interstellar] - Chapter 19
There are light and shadow in this world, there are S-level and N-level, and there are negative electrons and positrons. Where there is matter, there is an antimatter corresponding to it.
When antimatter meets matter, a physical phenomenon occurs, called annihilation.
Once annihilation occurs, the mass of positive and negative matter will be transformed into huge energy.
Only one piece of antimatter the size of an aspirin pill is enough to wipe out the entire Capital Star and its three billion people in an instant.
The giant laboratory buried in the underground of the Abino Central Laboratory is busy operating at this time.
“Minus 272.65 degrees Celsius, minus 273.15 degrees Celsius, has reached absolute zero!”
“The vacuuming of’Endless Orbits’ is completed.”
“Large Hadron Collider-ready to start!”
Ke Wei sat on a special chair, his arms were covered with magnets, and he wore a complicated metal hood on his head.
The metal hood is equipped with dozens of connecting wires, which are directly connected to Ke Wei’s whole body nerve activity, and all calculations and calculations are directly transmitted back to the optical brain in the main hall.
Ke Wei sat upright, his eyes half-open, his eyes drooping, staring loosely at his hands on his knees.
Xuan Mian was guarded by his side all the way, led several scientific researchers, and organized the project in an orderly manner.
The Large Hadron Collider started the collision, and Ke Wei slowly closed his eyes.
Xuan Mian moved a chair, sat next to him, and observed it carefully.
The needles dropped quietly in the underground laboratory, and the long wait seemed boring and boring, but Ke Wei was very patient and dedicated to this kind of work, keeping a high level of alertness at all times.
The time from the appearance to the disappearance of the anti-hydrogen atom was completed in a short tenth of a second. It was too late to communicate in words. Xuan Mian put the right of disposal on Ke Wei.
Fortunately, in the past month, Ke Wei’s performance is very reliable, so that all the researchers involved in the project are very relieved of him.
When this string of anti-hydrogen atoms appeared, dozens of devices such as the photon monitoring equipment of the optical brain and the gamma ray analyzer captured this moment at the same time. When the optical brain detects the data abnormality, the information is synchronously transmitted to Ke Wei’s brain at the speed of light.
Immediately afterwards, Ke Wei’s consciousness entered the collider, accurately found these anti-hydrogen atoms, quickly wrapped them with the source of consciousness, and immediately pulled them away from the original orbit, avoiding encounters with the matter in the collider. Annihilated.
With the intervention of the optical brain, Ke Wei’s source of consciousness is in line with the optical brain, and it becomes a command that can be interpreted by the optical brain program. Ke Wei activated the special device in the collider. This device processed his source of consciousness into another force and transformed it into a special local magnetic field.
The source of consciousness rushed on the anti-hydrogen atoms, and the special magnetic field temporarily changed the direction of movement of the anti-hydrogen atoms, preventing them from touching the inner wall of the collider made of matter and directly annihilating the explosion.
The anti-hydrogen atom was packaged aggressively by Ke Wei’s source of consciousness and thrown into the narrow opening directly above.
After 0.2 seconds, the task of capturing anti-hydrogen atoms has been accomplished.
People blinked and saw nearly a hundred anti-hydrogen atoms in the orbit of the vacuum, which appeared to be “out of thin air”. After a moment of stunned, they cheered together.
Although the time is short, Ke Wei, who has done a lot of things in this short time, opened his eyes tiredly like a tough battle.
Xuan Mian didn’t join the cheering team, but stared at his eyes enthusiastically, and said with a smile: “The gold has faded. When you are in sync with the optical brain, you have a jumping gold thread in your eyes. It’s so beautiful.”
Ke Wei silently pulled the corner of his mouth, and Xuan Mian carefully removed the device from his head and pulled him up.
Together, they looked at the astonishing length of the vacuum track “endless” underground.
“Endless” is a sturdy hollow pipe that can reach a vacuum environment. The inner wall of the pipe is surrounded by a special magnetic field, pulling the anti-hydrogen atoms smoothly in the vacuum channel in the center, keeping it moving forward at extreme speed.
“Endless” is a long circular pipe in which anti-hydrogen atoms rotate at high speed, circling back and forth, towards an endless end.
“Today… you really exceeded your goal. You caught so much in one breath. You have set the targets for these two months.”
Xuan Mian smiled openly: “People with a high source of consciousness have different shot efficiency. It seems that I won’t need me in the future, it’s all over to you!”
Ke Wei said euphemistically: “Dr. Xuanmian, the source of consciousness should be used frequently. There will be room for improvement if you exercise hard.”
“You’re right, then…well, I’ll stay with you next time.”
After this month of contact, the two of them have a better understanding of each other’s personalities.
Xuanmian is obsessed with scientific research and is very dedicated when he started scientific research. Therefore, he has always liked to be a smart, patient, and responsible colleague. Although Ke Wei is an airborne laboratory, he has won the appreciation and appreciation of his colleagues through his own efforts. approval.
Capturing anti-hydrogen atoms requires a very high level of mental work, and the risk taken is proportional to the pressure, but he did not expect that Ke Wei survived without saying a word. The task was completed very well. People think of him even more when he is young. A little more praise.
When Ke Wei got down from the chair, his back was wet with sweat, his handsome face was pale and his face was very ugly.
Xuan Mian helped Ke Wei, and finally realized that Ke Wei’s was wrong: “Eh, Ke Wei, are you uncomfortable?”
Ke Wei just said: “It doesn’t matter, just go back and sleep for a while.” “Then I’ll give you three days off, so you can go back and have a good rest.”
“it is good.”
Ke Wei went to the rest room and took a shower. When he came out, Xuan Mian clearly saw that when he was bent over, the slightly damp clothes on his back were pressed against a clearly protruding shoulder blade.
He suddenly discovered that after Ke Wei was released, he had lost a lot of weight in the past month of his life.
Xuan Mian hesitated, and stopped Ke Wei: “…Hello.”
Ke Wei collected his things and looked back at him: “What?”
“You have come to live across from me for a week. You are busy with work, and you forgot to ask what you need.”
Ke Weiwei smiled and said, “There is nothing missing, don’t worry about it.”
When Xuanmian was assigned to the room at that time, he remembered clearly that there was little other than a bed and a desk in the standard furniture. The apartment types of the two of them are the same, and the initial configuration inside should be the same degree of simplicity.
Logically speaking, Ke Wei, a minor who had just come to settle down, should have lived quite aggrieved.
Unexpectedly, Ke Wei shook his head and said, “Almost enough.”
Xuan Mian thought it was a little weird. He has always been very rough with what he eats around him, and his life is already very casual. He didn’t expect to meet someone who is even more undesirable than him today.
Xuan Mian felt a little sorry for Ke Wei. The boss specifically confessed to him, but he was a shopkeeper, and only wanted to get someone when he was working. The work intensity is so heavy, and people are tired and thin.
Being both a colleague and a new neighbor, and being so indifferent to Ke Wei, it is really unconscionable.
So Xuan Mian took a look at the next arrangement, pushed the afternoon projects to the evening, and invited: “If there is no arrangement in the afternoon, I will take you to the furniture store? Don’t look at the remote location of Ai Bino, but we There is everything here, today I will drive a spacecraft to take you to recognize the land.”
Ke Wei subconsciously wanted to decline, but before he could speak, Xuan Mian went on: “If you don’t add something to your room, you really don’t feel like home. You are so young, you don’t feel bored. Huh? Even if you can really handle it yourself, if someone goes to your house to play, wouldn’t you even have a place to sit?”
Ke Wei’s refusal came to his lips, and he swallowed it back into his stomach.
Xuan Mian’s words are not unreasonable.
If Zhong Yue comes over, and he is suddenly interested to visit him, there is really no place to sit, there is only a bed in the room.
So Ke Wei nodded.
Ke Wei’s time on the planet Ai Bino is short, most of the time he travels by means of transportation, and he has not been assigned a spaceship. At this moment he was on Xuanmian’s airship, and there was no young man’s excitement and curiosity when he came into contact with the personal airship. He was very calm and looked out the window quietly, with an inexplicable sense of contradiction.
Xuan Mian felt that Ke Wei, sometimes his performance and feelings, were not in line with his age.
The cabin was very quiet, and Ke Wei looked straight out of the window, wondering what was going on. Xuan Mian glanced at him for a while before asking, “How many catties have you lost, have you measured it yourself? Are you not used to the food here?”
Ke Wei just said: “Why, the food here is very delicious, I am living well.”
Seeing that he couldn’t ask anything, Xuan Mian shut up aggrievedly.
Ke Wei lost weight quickly. The pressure and intensity of his new job were just one reason. What really went wrong was his sleep.
Since Ke Wei was born again, he has not slept well. He was often visited by nightmares. Whenever the ending of his last life and Zhong Yue appeared in his dream, he would wake up from his sleep in the wee hours of the morning, and then open his eyes until dawn.
Since Jin Ran was killed, his sleep quality… plummeted to its lowest point. He began to sleep all night and all night, even those nights when he was lucky enough to close his eyes and rest for a while, he would definitely wake up in the middle of the night covered with cold sweat because of the **** nightmare.
After a while, Xuanmian hesitated and said, “Could it be that you have lost weight because you haven’t seen your boss for a long time… because you missed it too much?”
Ke Wei finally had a reaction. He turned his head to look at Xuan Mian, his expression a little surprised.
He thought that in his previous life, he really didn’t have the opportunity to know the true face of this colleague. When Xuan Mian raised his face and only talked about work, he was still quite able to bluff people. Unexpectedly, getting along in private would be so naive.
Seeing that he had an expression, Xuan Mian felt that he had guessed it more and more: “You have to take care of yourself. The boss often goes back to the army for missions. You won’t see him often.”
