Great Power Technology

"nihaoyihao."

"Hello number one."

Ye Zhou fully understood the meaning of this sentence, because he had only used this code name for the first time one night not long ago.

Before that, he had never heard a similar title at any time or on any occasion.

The first time he saw the letters on the note, he almost immediately ruled out the possibility that the sentence was used to refer to other people or other things, because this possibility was simply not possible. Be logically persuasive.

The reason is also very simple.

That is, he is the only one among all the people here who has ever been exposed to things that exceed the current technological level of mankind, and the situation they are facing now should obviously fall into the same category.

Ye Zhou's face was solemn. He put away the note and walked towards Chen Hao. After communicating a few words in a low voice, he immediately walked out of the control room of Liubijing 003 and headed to the underground base command room.

In the next few minutes, all personnel with insufficient security clearance were removed from the command system and isolated in non-core work areas. The core team members who had access to Six Nose Mirror No. 003, except those who continued to detect computer disturbances, Except for the two engineers, all were ordered to return to their rooms for isolation.

The entire base's defense forces were mobilized, peripheral troops entered the base, and all base guards were activated. After the last message was sent via paper, the base's door slammed shut.

This underground base has completely become an isolated island.

No information can be transmitted out, no information can be transmitted in, the radio is completely silent, and even the wired communication system is cut off.

For the first time, Ye Zhou exercised the transcendent command power of "Suiren" in reality, and his purpose was also very simple, that is, to determine the source of the disturbance and the identity of the mysterious "communicator."

After everything was arranged, Ye Zhou, accompanied by Wu Ping and two other security personnel, came to Xiao Ping's room. He first explained to Xiao Ping the purpose of his transcendent command, but skipped the background of the information on the note. detail.

Before the situation becomes clear, he must maintain the greatest degree of information closure to eliminate all possible disturbances.

Later, Ye Zhou went to the peripheral electromagnetic shielding room where the Liubijing No. 003 host was located. After sitting down on the temporarily moved chair in the shielding room, he ordered Wu Ping to bring all the people on his list into the shielding room one by one.

And the first person is Lin Ling.

After entering the shielding room, Lin Ling's expression was obviously a little nervous. Although she had not received the news that the entire base had been sealed off, judging from the situation where the army entered the base and everyone was isolated alone, it was obvious that something big had happened in this base. question.

What could be the problem?

Information leak? Spy invasion? Or was Six Nose Mirror No. 003 damaged?

She couldn't figure out the reason, nor could she figure out how this had any connection with herself. After all, since entering this base, the things she had learned were basically useless. To put it bluntly, she had nothing to do with this project. Success really doesn't matter much.

Therefore, after seeing Ye Zhou with a frosty face, although she felt a little uneasy in her heart, she did not feel fear - this was probably due to her calmness and clear conscience.

However, the first words Ye Zhou spoke were far beyond her expectations.

"Did you disclose the information about our conversation that night to anyone?"

Lin Ling was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously shook his head and replied:

"No! I understand the principle of confidentiality and I never discuss things that have nothing to do with work!"

Ye Zhou nodded slightly, pointed to the chair opposite and motioned for her to sit down. Wu Ping behind him was wearing soundproof earmuffs, his eyes fixed on Lin Ling's every move.

Lin Ling sat down carefully and looked down at the ground. Ye Zhou noticed her movements and immediately asked her to raise her head.

"Sorry, I need to see your expression. Please remember that every question I ask you next is of great importance. If you hide anything, it may lead to serious consequences that you absolutely cannot bear."

"Such consequences include, but are not limited to, leaks, failure of the chain of command, and the outbreak of all-out war."

"So, please be sure to answer the questions truthfully and never distort or conceal any details. Do you understand?"

"I see!"

Lin Lin nodded nervously and looked at Ye Zhou without daring to avoid it.

After a moment of pause, Ye Zhou said:

"First of all, I want to give you a brief overview of the situation we are currently facing."

"To summarize in one sentence: Liubijing No. 003 computer was interfered by unknown reasons. After encoding and decrypting the interference intensity waveform, we found that the interference waveform can be compiled into a meaningful message through ASCII encoding."

"And the content of this message is: Hello No. 1."

Hearing Ye Zhou's words, Lin Ling's eyes suddenly widened.

She now knew why Ye Zhou's first sentence was to ask her if she had disclosed the details of the conversation between the two that night.

She had known for a long time that the quantum computer was interfered with by unknown reasons. Although it was difficult to understand that such a situation occurred in this electromagnetic shielding room, which could almost be called the strongest in the world, it was not inexplicable.

But judging from Ye Zhou's words, the so-called "interference" is not the purpose, but the transmission of information.

The information conveyed happened to be about "No. 1".

This is very wrong.

No wonder his expression is so serious, because this is indeed an extremely serious threat. Even if you think about it from the most optimistic perspective, it also implies that the confidentiality system of the entire base has been breached-it does not even rule out that there are enemies lurking inside. possibility.

Thinking of this, Lin Ling quickly said:

"I can 100% guarantee that I have never disclosed relevant information to anyone, and I have no possibility of leaking secrets unconsciously. I have never had sleepwalking symptoms, a normal mental state, and no habit of diary or recording. I Can I ask a question?"

After seeing Ye Zhou nod, Lin Ling continued:

"Are you sure that this message is not a coincidence? If it is not a coincidence, can you be sure that the 'No. 1' in this message refers to you?"

Ye Zhou shook his head and replied:

"The first question: There may be coincidences in the information, because our understanding of quantum physics is too low to explain the random perturbations of qubits. However, judging from the current situation, the probability of coincidence is relatively low, because this information passes The regular perturbation method was delivered a total of 5 times.”

"Second question: I am not sure that the person 'No. 1' refers to is me, but I am the only person in this base who is currently known to be related to this title. Therefore, my first step is to start from the person related to me. Investigate the clues."

"Your questions have been answered, now I want to ask you a question."

"Before, you received a notice from the core team of the project. When you entered the control room of the six-nosed mirror as a high-energy physics analyst, did you already know the specific circumstances of the disturbance to the six-nosed mirror? How did you understand this disturbance at that time? What is the initial judgment?”

Lin Ling frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, she answered:

"At that time, we mainly analyzed it from several aspects and put forward a total of five possibilities."

"The first one, which is the most intuitive, is that the electromagnetic shielding system of the base has failed. The disturbance is caused by electromagnetic radiation in the base."

"Second, some people have suggested that the material properties of the topological quantum chip we use may not be stable enough. After high-intensity operation, the material itself decays weakly, causing the qubits to escape or malfunction."

"Third, there may be some kind of high-energy particles that we are currently unable to detect that have penetrated the shield and interfered with the quantum computer. Such particles may have come from the storm of a certain star in ancient times and just happened to pass by. That’s all.”

"The fourth one may be some kind of gravitational effect, similar to tides and earth-moon effects. We don't know what the specific effect is, but we just think it's possible."

At this point, Lin Ling stopped suddenly, and her expression became a little strange.

"None of these four speculations can explain why the perturbation will eventually form meaningful information. On the contrary, it is the fifth reason. We just mentioned it as a joke at the time. Now it seems that it is the most likely."

"What is it?"

Ye Zhou asked with a frown.

Looking at Ye Zhou's confused eyes, Lin Ling took a deep breath and then replied:

"Quantum Ghost."

There will be another chapter later today, but only two more chapters because I need to catch up on some sleep. It will recover daily by 10,000 on Friday.
