Annihilation of the solar system

Zhou Cheng slept in a muddy dream for a long time, and a vague sound in his ears pulled him out of his sleep. He opened his hazy eyes, and there seemed to be a figure sitting in front of his desk.

He was shocked. Normally, no one should come into his office. If something happened, he would be woken up instead of sitting at his desk like this.

Thinking of this, his somewhat fuzzy consciousness suddenly came to his senses. He blinked hard, raised his neck and took a closer look. The figure turned out to be Cao Rui, and he put his head back on the pillow and stretched out a long

Lazy waist.

Cao Rui looked at the hazy Zhou Cheng and chuckled:

"wake up?"

Zhou Cheng yawned, his speech still a little dull:

"Old Cao, how long have you been here?"

Cao Rui stood up and handed over a cigarette:

"It won't take long, maybe ten or twenty minutes."

Zhou Cheng sat up from the bed, feeling a chill coming over him. He quickly put on his coat:

"Why don't you wake me up when you come? Just wait here."

Cao Rui replied with a smile:

"Knowing that you, Professor Zhou Da, burned your life for the sake of all mankind last night, how could I dare to interfere with your rest?"

Zhou Cheng lit the cigarette, took a puff, and said angrily:

"What are you doing with all this useless stuff? Your sister-in-law told you?"

Cao Rui walked to his desk and shook out the ashes:

"My sister-in-law called me at noon and said that something strange happened to you again. You stayed up all night because of this and asked me to come over and see you."

Zhou Cheng walked to the window and looked at the sky outside. The sky was covered with clouds, and he couldn't tell whether it was morning or afternoon. He frowned slightly and said:

"Did she tell you everything?"

Cao Rui looked at the calendar on Zhou Cheng's desk and said leisurely:

"You gave me a general explanation, but I didn't quite understand it. I just said that you received a very cutting-edge scientific email, and you worked hard all night without sleeping. After the meeting in the morning, I became even more anxious, and I didn't say yes to her.

For whatever reason, just let me come over and see you."

Zhou Cheng looked back at the wall clock which had almost reached four o'clock in the afternoon. He walked to the water dispenser and took two glasses of water, handed a cup to Cao Rui who was sitting in his chair, and then sat on the sofa next to him.

He told Cao Rui the email he received last night, the meeting he held this morning, and what happened with Wen Zhuorui after the meeting. After hearing this, Cao Rui's original smile with a bit of a sneer on his face was gone.

A serious look instead:

"Are you sure this matter has nothing to do with your genius student Liu Chaowen?"

Zhou Cheng shook his head while holding a steaming cup of water:

"It is basically certain that Chaowen is engaged in theoretical physics. Moreover, his research projects are mainly in cutting-edge science, and the theoretical basis of nuclear fusion was very mature decades ago.

The technology of controllable nuclear fusion reactor is more focused on application, and the content in the emails received by the Academy of Engineering and the Aerospace Center is not Liu Chaowen’s field of expertise.”

Cao Rui didn't quite understand what Zhou Cheng meant:

"But doesn't that student of yours learn everything by analogy?"

Zhou Cheng explained:

"Applied science and theoretical science are two different things. It is impossible for his talent to produce such results without my knowledge.

So I judge that this matter may have nothing to do with Liu Chaowen. Although Liu Chaowen is already a superstar academically, he is like a high school student meeting his class teacher in front of me. He will not lie to me."

Cao Rui rubbed his hand back and forth on the stubble on his chin:

"That's what it means. There is a group of people whose scientific and technological achievements have far surpassed ours. They are still monitoring us, knowing the difficulties we encounter, and helping us."

Zhou Cheng nodded, the wrinkles between his brows deepening:

"That's probably what it means, but it's very illogical. Because the development of science and technology requires the slow accumulation of social production practices in all industries in society. A mature science and technology requires a lot of social wealth.

Only through experimentation and demonstration can it be maturely applied."

Cao Rui also understood what Zhou Cheng meant:

"In other words, they can't be a group of people who just close the door, grab a pen and a notebook, and just count the decades?"

Zhou Cheng put down the water glass, picked up the fusion reactor design information on the table, and looked at Cao Rui with eyes full of disbelief:

"You're right. But the content here is indeed a very reliable and applicable plan for a nuclear fusion reactor. It's like having a golden finger in a game!"

Cao Rui took the heavy book of information and flipped through it casually:

"I understand what you mean. This thing is really strange. I have dealt with many strange cases, and this one is the strangest one.

It's not easy to draw a conclusion at this moment, so let me give you your email account. Let the two email experts who received the email also give me their email account. I'll go back and check the source of the email first.

Are there any flaws?"

Zhou Cheng nodded:

"Okay, I'll ask you right now."

Just as he was about to take out his phone and dial a number, he suddenly stopped and asked:

"Does your security department still care about this kind of thing?"

Cao Rui stood up from Zhou Cheng's chair:

"Didn't I mention it to you once when we came out of the meeting in the underground civil defense fortification last time? We established a cutting-edge scientific investigation department, do you remember? You didn't agree to the last time I asked you to be a consultant.

."

Zhou Cheng hesitated for a moment and said:

"If you don't tell me, I really wouldn't have remembered that such a thing happened."

Cao Rui leaned towards Zhou Cheng, his serious expression emphasizing Zhou Cheng's worries:

"This secret organization directly identified the link where we needed the most help and gave us the most direct help. And before this, we had no idea that such a force existed.

This may not only be an assistance, it may also be a threat. At least they have been monitoring us and know our every move. Don’t you feel a chill in your back when you think about this?”

Being touched by Cao Rui, Zhou Cheng felt a terrifying aura spreading in the air.

After being dull for a while, Cao Rui continued:

"I feel that this matter is not simple. It is necessary to investigate in depth. I will go back and report to the leader. You will assist in the investigation as a consultant on this case. How about it, Old Zhou?"

Zhou Cheng snorted coldly and said:

"Hmph! You really know how to choose the right time, okay?"

Cao Rui's face showed a bit of a gangster smile again:

"That's right. I'm not here to keep you busy with your work. I'll go back and sort out my thoughts first and contact you later."

After speaking, Cao Rui left the office.

Zhou Cheng stood by the window and looked at the misty sky and fell into deep thought. The appearance of Liu Chaowen over the years has made Zhou Cheng, who once refused to admit defeat in academics, become much calmer.

But this epoch-making plan that appeared out of thin air made his academic stubbornness come out again. He wanted to understand more than Cao Rui what was going on, and what happened to those people with such superb science and technology.

What is it like.
