Earth Era

"you're free."

Wang Hao raised his head in confusion, looked at the serious-looking guard in front of him, and murmured, "Am I free?"

"Yes, you can leave here and continue back to your biochemical laboratory."

Wang Hao did not leave. Instead, he lay on his knees and held his head in his hands.

An unspeakable pain was spreading in Wang Hao's heart. Wang Hao knew very clearly that, just as the scientist said, no matter what conclusion he drew, it was unverified and untrustworthy. Although it was enough to support him in desperately warning the head of state, it did not mean that he wanted it to be true.

And now, since he has been released, this has proved that the scientists have also proved their conclusions in the most rigorous exploration and testing.

There is indeed some kind of magical power in the Bread Nebula. Human civilization is indeed trapped in the Phoenix Galaxy and cannot leave.

The guard did not rush Wang Hao, but waited quietly there. After more than ten minutes, Wang Hao raised his head.

"Leave physics matters to the physicists. Leave medical matters to me. Since the head of state asked me to return to the biochemical laboratory, he must hope that I can find a way to treat this disease. I...I will try my best."

Wang Hao muttered, but the guard seemed not to hear him and made no response. Wang Hao walked out of the room in despair. The guard immediately followed behind him and guided Wang Hao out of the government building.

A dozen colleagues from the biochemistry laboratory were already waiting there. With them was a middle-aged man wearing glasses.

Seeing Wang Hao come out, the middle-aged man immediately stepped forward, shook hands with Wang Hao, and then said: "Hello, Wang Hao, I am the secretary of the head of state. The head of state ordered me to tell you to find a cure for atypical genetic mutations at all costs. Syndrome approach. No matter what resources you need or which department you need assistance with, you can contact me directly and I will coordinate everything for you.”

Wang Hao said bitterly: "Has that kind of radiation been confirmed?"

The secretary hesitated slightly and said: "There is no radiation. But the Bread Nebula does have some kind of force that we don't understand yet, which leads to the emergence of this disease. The Central Academy of Sciences has dispatched top scientists to form a research team and is currently investigating this matter. Investigate and if there are any breakthroughs, they will share them with you.”

"Okay." Wang Hao nodded slightly.

Although I didn't leave for a few days, I felt like I was in another world when I returned to the biochemical laboratory. After collecting and organizing some data and tools with his colleagues, Wang Hao led people out of the laboratory door and left immediately.

In the capital spaceship, the new Minister of Health has prepared a new working place for Wang Hao. A joint research team composed of the Ministry of Health and the Academy of Life Sciences is already waiting for Wang Hao.

In an office somewhere in the government building, Shen Qingyuan looked at Dr. Huang Yuan who was sitting upright in front of him, and asked a little tiredly: "You mean, we basically have no possibility in a short time?"

Although he had already had a premonition in his heart, Shen Qingyuan couldn't help but ask this question again at this moment.

Dr. Huang Yuan replied: "Yes."

"How long do you think it will take you to resolve this matter?"

"Unpredictable." Dr. Huang Yuan said with a bitter smile: "Now we have only calculated its reaction mechanism and production principle theoretically. We have not even truly observed dark matter, let alone made actual verification. From There are too many gaps between theory and reality, and then finding ways to shield this reaction force."

"Give me an approximate time." Shen Qingyuan repeated the question again.

Dr. Huang Yuan hesitated for a moment and said: "At least ten years. If it is slow... it may be forever. Maybe until we humans become extinct, we will not be able to gain anything in this field."

Shen Qingyuan waved his hand, and Dr. Huang Yuan quietly exited the office.

Shen Qingyuan stood up and came to the huge glass porthole in the office, staring at the vast stars outside the window in a daze. Although he knew that all this was fake and that the star scene outside the window was only played on a virtual screen, Shen Qingyuan still always liked to stand here.

Only in this way can his thoughts get a moment of peace.

After pondering for a long time, Shen Qingyuan pressed lightly on his wrist and said calmly: "Order the main control room of the Migration Fleet to formulate an evacuation plan immediately. Since we can't leave, there is no point in leaving so many spaceships here. Where did they come from? Let them go back to where they are."

At this time, evacuating all spacecraft is undoubtedly equivalent to admitting to the public the failure of the migration plan, admitting that it will not be possible to return to the solar system in a short time, and that the plan to return to the solar system has been shelved. This will inevitably cause some turmoil in society and even arouse extremely strong opposition, but this is the only choice Shen Qingyuan can make.

At this time, Shen Qingyuan was extremely grateful that he had not followed the suggestion of Han Luochang, the Minister of Industry and Science, and left those buildings that had to be left behind in the Phoenix Galaxy, such as the capital city on Blue Star, such as the building on Planet No. 2. All large industrial bases were blown up. Now that we can't leave in a short time, if those things are bombed, people will have to spend huge energy and resources to rebuild them again.

"Fortunately, the Phoenix Galaxy is not affected by that strange force. We can completely hide in the galaxy and slowly find a solution to the problem. It's just..."

Shen Qingyuan made a few gestures to the screen in front of him, and the picture on the screen immediately zoomed in, and finally a huge star appeared.

That's the Phoenix Star.

"I wonder if your premature aging has something to do with the Bread Nebula? Can you...can you survive until the moment when our human civilization leaves?"

The Phoenix Galaxy is not a place to stay for a long time. No one wants to bear the wrath of an exploding star, and no one can. The only thing Shen Qingyuan can pray for is that humans can find a way to leave here before the Phoenix Star explodes. Otherwise, they can only die together with Phoenix Star.

"It seems that my resignation plan cannot be implemented. Well, well, since I can't go back, I'll just stay here. Like my predecessor, the former head of state, complete his term and fulfill his responsibilities. , let’s leave the rest of the matter to the successor.”

Shen Qingyuan left the office and returned home with some disinterest. It can be seen that the wife is very surprised that she can come back so early today. So she asked with great concern: "Are you feeling unwell?"

Shen Qingyuan shook his head and said: "Ayu, I'm sorry, we can't leave the Phoenix Galaxy in a short time, and I can't resign early to accompany you."

Shen Qingyuan's words were full of fatigue. After saying this, he entered the bedroom to rest without looking back. Zhou Mingyu stood there blankly, as if feeling her husband's pain firsthand.

She wanted to go into the bedroom to comfort her husband, but after thinking for a moment, she gave up the idea. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something again, and opened the communication page of her portable computer in a hurry. Just when her finger was about to touch that option, she stopped again.

That option is father.

After a long pause, Zhou Mingyu closed the page, but opened it again soon after. After repeating this several times, he finally gritted his teeth and clicked.

After waiting for a moment, the communication was connected. Her father's face full of kind smile appeared in front of her.

"Ayu, why did you remember to call me?"

"It's okay." Zhou Mingyu's voice was a little low: "Is mother okay?"

"Your mother is very good. By the way, do you know how well Fusheng has performed in the company? Without knowing his identity, three or four middle-level managers of the company have specifically mentioned his name in meetings. You My mother always praises him in front of me..."

My father was nagging as always. This may be a common problem among the elderly. In the past, Zhou Mingyu was happy to talk to his parents about common things, but today it was not appropriate.

She finally interrupted her father: "Father, I called you today because I have something to tell you."

As if aware of his daughter's seriousness, his father also became serious: "Ayu, tell me, what happened?"

Zhou Mingyu hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Qingyuan has decided not to leave the Phoenix Galaxy for the time being. It is expected that a formal order will be issued after the evacuation plan is finalized in at most ten days."

Father looked into Zhou Mingyu's eyes and did not look away for a long time. After a long time, he sighed: "Ayu, I have asked you about policy changes many times in the past, but you have always been tight-lipped and never revealed it to me. Why are you suddenly telling me these things now? Tell me. ,So what happened?"

"Father, don't worry about the rest. You just need to know the value of this information. You have to act quickly, otherwise, after more than ten days, this information will be worthless."

"Okay, I understand. During this period, I will acquire as quickly as possible those assets that the migrating fleet cannot take away and were originally planned to be abandoned. Although due to the delay, their value has recovered to a certain extent. , but still very low, and acquiring them is a very good deal..."

The call was cut off, and Zhou Mingyu burst into tears unknowingly.

"Qingyuan, I'm sorry, I'm not betraying you. Our son is too kind and too cowardly. After you leave, the only one who can protect our son is my father. I must strengthen my father's strength as much as possible until he is strong. Until no high-ranking official can easily attack him. I dare not ask for your forgiveness. I only hope that in another world, I can repay my sins to you..."
