Not Cold [Interstellar] - Chapter 46

After the meal, Xuan Mian and Zhong Yue reported on their work. Ke Wei is now a different identity. He is already a person who can discuss matters together in Zhong Yue. His opinions are effective, so he was left to listen together.

Zhong Yue grabbed one of Ke Wei’s hands to play, and said absently: “You can tell me about the progress of Abino’s reconstruction.”

Xuan Mian comes with a filter, completely ignoring the glare of blind people. He made a lot of preparations, took out some materials, and opened the report seriously: “This is the cost of reconstruction and resettlement. I also suggest that some money be allocated to build an evacuation center under the park, just in case.”

With the remaining hand, Ke Wei took the document and read it carefully, and made several suggestions for improvement. Zhong Yue just glanced briefly, saw nothing wrong, and asked: “Is the money enough?”

“Enough.” Xuan Mian showed a little puzzled look: “It stands to reason that the first time Mo Bai came to Ebino, he was attacked by the Zerg here and almost lost his life. Such a terrible experience…what is he? There are no complaints. Not only did the follow-up payments come without saying a word, but also increased investment.”

Speaking of Silence, Zhong Yue felt Ke Wei’s hand move lightly. He thought of what Ke Wei had said on the warship not long ago, and asked: “I asked you to give your mother a silent blood sample. Did she help me analyze it?”

“After the test, my mother said that there was nothing wrong with the blood you took to her. It is very normal human blood.” @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

Ke Wei frowned. Is his inference wrong?

Zhong Yue directly stretched out his hand to rub Ke Wei’s eyebrows: “Don’t frown.”

Zhong Yue turned his head and said to Xuanmian: “I had a conversation with him a while ago. He did not seem to be angry about our inadequate protection and the attack on him.”

Ke Wei glanced at him: “You are the first person to contact Mo Bai. Why did he come to you?”

“I don’t know. He won’t lose us if he doesn’t divest. You don’t have to shut him out and keep in close contact. On the contrary, you can see his purpose. Let’s take a step and look at it.”

Xuan Mian hesitated and said: “Actually… it’s okay for him to divest, you and Ke Wei are together, we don’t lack money…”

Zhong Yue wondered: “What’s wrong with Guan Ke?”

Xuan Mian was speechless for a moment and handed him the financial statement. Three minutes later, Zhong Yue’s expression cracked.

“I thought you knew it a long time ago, so you betrayed the sex…Oh no, just staying with Ke Wei…” Xuan Mian saw the boss’s expression wrong, and said tremblingly, “Uh, I seem to have said something wrong? The boss… Okay?”

Ke Wei said leisurely: “Even if he sells|hue, I still suffer more. Forget it, forget the past, Zhong Yue, the agreement with you is still valid, you will behave well in the future.”

Zhong Yue put Ke Wei’s hand back on his knee silently, swallowing a mouthful of old blood in his throat. He thought of the things he had done before, and felt that he hadn’t fainted, and that he was very tenacious. Even if he and the old wife of Ke Wei had been for many years, he had no face to look at the person sitting next to him at this time.

After a while, he reluctantly said: “Ke Wei, aren’t your parents just ordinary clergymen? Where does so much money come from?”

Ke Wei said slowly: “You never gave me the opportunity to spend money before. In the future, if you maintain a good life style, you will naturally not treat you badly.”

Zhong Yue could no longer continue this conversation. In order to save the dignity of the few remaining men, he sternly turned off the topic and said to Xuan Mian, “Continue to report on the work just now!”

Xuan Mian handed Zhong Yue a new report: “The arrangement of Aibi Nou is finished. I will now talk about the scientific research tasks you taught me before. The box dug out of the sand you asked me to study, inside I’ve read the paper file dozens of times. It’s very interesting, but those pages are just part of a huge calculation, not completely… inferred from the physical formula of this fragment… um.”

Xuan Mian said uncertainly: “It is probably a formula related to space, magnetic field, and force field, but…”

“Maybe it has something to do with the cosmic crack?” Zhong Yue interrupted.

Ke Wei immediately turned his head and glanced at Zhong Yue.

Xuan Mian stunned, and said: “Wormholes and cracks are still unsolvable problems in the universe. If you explain in this direction…well, I reserve my opinion for the time being. This document is incomplete, and I need a lot of time to research. You have a definite answer.”

Zhong Yue frowned: “You continue to study the contents of the file and tell me immediately if you have any progress. At the same time, your research has the highest level of confidentiality and must not be leaked.”

Xuan Mian suddenly said, “Wait a minute.”

Xuan Mian took out a small isolation box and put on gloves before opening the code, and took out a shiny metal block from it.

Zhong Yue looked at it and didn’t see anything special about it, but even scientifically inconspicuous things might have the effect of ruining the world, so Zhong Yue still didn’t despise it. Seriously ask: “What is this?”

“This is the box you brought back. The metal block in the isolation box. It turned out to be black and there was no abnormality when it was tested. It wasn’t until a few days ago that it suddenly became hot on its own, and I didn’t realize it. wrong.”

This piece of metal is by no means black anymore. The whole body is the color of gold, showing a gem-like brilliance under the light. If it is not for the unknown composition, it has almost a gem-level collection value.

Xuan Mian said: “When it got hot, the alloy on the outside became soft, so I carefully cleaned the metal on the outer layer, exposing the pattern on this side.”

Xuan Mian turned it around, and Zhong Yue and Ke Wei were dumbfounded when they saw the pattern on it.

Zhong Yue asked in amazement: “What’s wrong with such a beautiful metal engraving? Why do you get a toilet brush on it?”

Ke Wei: “…It doesn’t seem to be a brush, but a chicken paw?”

The two looked at each other and felt speechless.

Xuan Mian: “This is not gold. I tested it. Its composition is a new type of cosmic matter that has not yet been registered on the list of chemical elements. I can’t be sure. But since I took it out, it has heated up twice. Next, I have to install it with an isolation box that isolates electromagnetic signals so that it won’t happen… Ah!”

I saw Xuan Mian immediately carrying the unknown gold nugget and putting it back in the isolation box: “It’s starting to heat up again, look at it.”

The uneven lines on the metal surface began to gather heat and shine, and it was a toilet brush or a chicken paw pattern, and the whole was shining with dazzling golden light.

Xuanmian immediately embodied all the programs of his personal terminal, and instantly a light screen appeared in every unoccupied corner of the room.

Xuan Mian: “Monitor data and report all abnormal behaviors.”

His words fell, and all the data sheets started to move.

Zhong Yue’s expression was not relaxed, Ke Wei couldn’t help but glance at him again.

Ke Wei is too familiar with Zhong Yue. With a look on his face, Ke Wei knew that there was something in his mind, and he might know some information that they didn’t know, but for some reason, Zhong Yue didn’t say it.

After more than ten minutes of intensive calculations, without any data sheet reporting an error, the light of the metal block gradually faded out.

Ke Wei: “…So, what happened just now?”

Xuan Mian said with a bitter face: “I have recorded all the data just now. Wait, we lower the standard and do the calculation again.”

After reducing the sensitivity and recalculating, more than 70 data showed abnormalities. Xuan Mian looked at it one by one and had to assist other data tables to make judgments. For unfamiliar areas, Xuanmian promptly sent the forms back to the experts in various fields of Ai Bino. It would also take a lot of time to allocate tasks.

While waiting for Xuanmian’s results together, Zhong Yue’s personal terminal rang.

This communication request surprised Zhong Yue. He glanced at Xuan Mian before answering, “Aunt Xuan, hello.”

Xuan Mian, who was immersed in the data, looked up in surprise: “Mom?”

Xuan’s mother’s holographic projection appeared in the room. She saw the metal block in the box and frowned: “Son, you go out, Mom has a few words, you have to talk to General Zhong alone.” @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

When the mother drove out his son, Ke Wei consciously avoided it, and thoughtfully helped them close the door.

“General Zhong…” Xuan’s mother seemed to have no idea how to say: “You entrusted me to do it… I did it, but I didn’t protect your child… Alas, when the Zerg invaded Ebino, it might have been caused by my laboratory. The reflective glass prism above attracted a large number of Zerg attacks. I was able to leave nothing in my laboratory… I’m so sorry.”

Having said this, Zhong Yue already understood. He hadn’t spoken for a long time, and sighed: “It’s fine if you haven’t hurt you.”

Xuan’s mother: “The stem cells of Ke Wei I extracted were not spared. If you want to have another child…”

After Zhong Yue thought for a long time, he shook his head with a wry smile: “Sometimes fate must be there. Forget it, it shouldn’t have been this time.”

Xuan’s mother was a little relieved. She looked at the metal block beside Zhong Yue, her face full of hesitation.

Zhong Yue had already noticed Xuan’s mother’s abnormal behavior when she first saw it.

So Zhong Yue asked: “Aunt Xuan, have you seen this thing?”

Xuan’s mother hesitated for a long time before saying: “I went to give Xuanmian food two days ago. When I saw this in his laboratory, I was really surprised and panicked… I never knew that this thing is still in the world. There is a second piece…”

Xuan’s mother trembled: “This thing killed Xuanmian’s father! Not only that, after we escaped from the occupied areas of the Xuanmian Zong tribe, it was because of it. Not only did the Holy See turn a blind eye to our request for rescue, it turned to me and Xuan. Mian gave out the password!”

“They killed me, but Xuan Mian was so small back then that the Holy See was so cruel! I could only take Xuan Mian and escape back to the Zerg-occupied area, and fight a group of cannibal bugs to make a living…”

Zhong Yue already understood the significance of this matter, and he comforted: “Say slowly, don’t worry.”

Xuan’s mother took a few deep breaths before she calmed down a little: “…When our hometown was invaded by the Zerg, the pope personally issued the last instruction to Xuan Mian’s father, not to protect the residents, not to evacuate as soon as possible, but to destroy our planet gods. The temple, excavate it from the foundation and send it back to Capital Star!”

“His father can’t understand this order-the Zerg presses the border and does not protect the people, but instead takes all the sergeants to dig out something that you don’t know what it is? The pope told him that the priority of this matter is higher than that of all civilians. Life! I still remember the Pope’s face at that time. The things he saved the common people have always been deceitful! We have been faithful to the Creation Church for many years. We are not gods at all, only demons!”

Xuan’s mother burst into tears with emotions: “I once had a video of Xuan Mian’s father’s conversation with the Pope, but this evidence has been destroyed by the Holy See. Alas, I’m all to blame… after I escaped, I was so easy. Believing in the Holy See, I handed over the video, and I blamed me for being stupid.”

“Over the years, I have never dared to tell Xuan Mian…We are too weak to know the truth of the matter, nor can I avenge the Holy See. I originally wanted to hide my son and let him live a happy life forever. , You got a new identity for us, I thought I could really get rid of the past and start over…”

When Xuanmu talked about this, she was already sobbing in a low voice: “But such a past… how can you forget it?”

Zhong Yue seemed to feel something, and his voice was very low. He didn’t know if he was speaking to Xuan’s mother or he heard it by himself: “Yes… what happened can’t be forgotten.”
