war.
Judging from the movie, this word seems to be far away from the interstellar space and time, but in fact, in Zhang Tianyuan's view, it is more likely that it is just covered up.
As mentioned in the movie, NASA was disbanded because it refused to drop bombs on hungry people in the stratosphere, but it was rebuilt later.
When a huge conflict that cannot be reconciled occurs in a country, in most cases it will choose to transfer outward, and war is also the most common form.
In Zhang Tianyuan's view, he was able to drop bombs on hungry people in his own country or near the border, which shows that the means of transferring conflicts to the outside world may have failed.
In other words, there is a high probability that someone has tried the means of war, and it has failed, or has had little effect.
Think about it too, what is the purpose of war in such a situation of intense internal conflicts?
It is to plunder the wealth created by the people of other countries, and then take the wealth as their own, transport it back to their own country for distribution, and ease domestic conflicts.
And where does the wealth come from?
Come from the land.
Food, minerals, and population are all independent of land.
However, the land in the interstellar space-time has become unsuitable for planting, the desertification is serious, and the blight continues to spread among various plant species, and even a touch of green can be seen on the land.
Food can no longer be grown.
In this way, it will be difficult for the party that started the war to obtain food from the defeated party, at most they will remove the food reserves in their warehouses.
As for other resources such as minerals and population, in the case of insufficient food, these are actually meaningless or even a burden.
The people have nothing to eat, no matter how many minerals they occupy, how complete industries they develop, and how fast the economy develops, what is the use?
Can't all citizens directly ascend mechanically and eat engine oil instead?
Moreover, the development of these industries will occupy population resources and increase the consumption of food. With such a toss of food reserves, I am afraid that cockroaches will be used as food reserves if they enter the granary.
Therefore, in this time and space, with the shortage of food reserves in various countries, launching a war has gradually become a pure loss-making business, and many countries may not even be able to squeeze out the logistical food reserves before launching a war.
Of course, in order to plunder the food reserves of various countries, there is a high probability that there will be a war in interstellar space.
Otherwise, it is difficult to explain why the drones belonging to the command center in New Delhi flew across the ocean to North America.
If it is really flying from New Delhi for ten years, then the automatic cruise is too outrageous, and it is difficult to explain Brownian motion.
These speculations, Zhang Tianyuan communicated face to face with instructor Yin.
So after Instructor Yin "heard" the little girl's sign language expression, he was not too surprised.
The president's news has always been accurate.
He just looked at the dust wrapped in the air and looked at the sun with emotion in his heart, but also a little worried.
"Did a lot of people die in that war?" he asked.
The little girl tilted her head, as if she was thinking about what the adults had said to her before. After a while, she nodded hesitantly.
Instructor Yin asked again: "Which countries are participating in the war?"
The little girl really didn't understand, she simply shook her head.
Instructor Yin knew that asking this was the limit, so he changed the subject and asked about the little girl's study.
As he expected, the little girl still shook her head.
Instructor Yin touched her head with a hand, sighed inwardly, but smiled on his face: "It's okay, you can still go to school in the future."
The group of people did not go far on the road before approaching the city ahead.
Like the surrounding environment, the city is also shrouded in a cloud of sand and dust, which looks earthy yellow, and accumulated sand can be seen everywhere on all planes, but compared with the outside countryside, the towering houses act as a shelter, and the situation In fact, it has improved a lot.
Even the road was buried under nearly a centimeter of yellow sand, and it was soft to walk on. Some skinny workers in uniform were holding tools, trying to push the sand together, and then shoveled it into the cart. Pull it away with manpower.
Outside the shops on the side of the road, the dilapidated signboards are also covered with dust. There are shops selling hand-woven fabrics, books, tools, and even handmade blacksmith shops. It kept going, as if beating some kind of farm tool like a hoe.
Except for the towering buildings, there are almost no traces of modernity in the well-defined business scope of these shops.
The only thing worth mentioning is that in every corner of the city, as long as there is open space, corn is planted on it, and the corn is planted as green vegetation.
It's just that the tall corn stalks are also covered with a layer of sand, which looks sick and there is not much greenery to be seen.
And outside these corns, there are also handmade signs with different materials and shapes, but the same sentence is written in ink on them——
"Dongxing street residents' public land, vandalism and theft of public food is strictly prohibited!"
This is a closed block.
Instructor Yin's car attracted the attention of the public as soon as it came in, especially the bucket of mineral water in Instructor Yin's hand, which made many people's eyes straighten, and they unconsciously swallowed their saliva.
After seeing the scene in the city, Instructor Yin already has a basic understanding of the situation in this time and space.
Judging from the sign on the residents' commons, the time-space official still exists, and has considerable control power. It has not collapsed due to famine.
After entering the block, the little girl relaxed a lot visibly, and nodded to some people or other children, and some people came up vigilantly to ask Instructor Yin the identity of this convoy.
In response to this, Instructor Yin followed suit and allocated a car to take the little girl home, and then asked that person to help take them to the police station.
The man seemed a little stunned by this request. He thought that the group of people in front of him were outlaws. Who knew that these people would take the initiative to go to the police station?
But the surprise is the surprise, this person is unambiguous in his work, and with the reward of a barrel of mineral water, he walked the team to the destination with great strides.
The convoy had already attracted attention as soon as it reached the gate of the police station, so there was no need for Instructor Yin to go in, and the police officers came to the gate to inquire about the situation.
"You people are..."
Instructor Yin was about to answer when he heard the policeman continue: "Are you picking up waste outside?"
"Scavenger?" Instructor Yin roughly understood what the police officer meant, then he shook his head and denied, "We are not scavengers."
"Hmm..." The police officer named Ma Le nodded and said nothing.
But he looked the convoy up and down, and he had already decided in his heart that this was a powerful scavenger group.
After the food shortage, the world order loosened, and the order of various countries was also damaged to varying degrees due to the famine.
In this case, the emergence of groups such as scavengers is nothing more than normal.
These people wandered and camped everywhere, looking for groundwater, looking for food, looking for high-quality farmland without the threat of sandstorms, looking for minerals and gasoline...
Of course, this is a law-abiding, or scavengers with a conscience.
After confirming the identities of Instructor Yin and his party in his mind, Ma Le had secretly raised his vigilance, and put his hands on his waist intentionally or unintentionally.
Instructor Yin didn't know that his identity had been determined in Ma Le's heart. He kept a normal face and wanted to go into the room to talk with Ma Le.
Ma Le didn't refuse. After calling out a few colleagues to look at the remaining team members, he walked into the police station's office with Instructor Yin and Zheng Xu.
Entering the room, the air here is much cleaner than outside, but the feeling of impurities and turbidity is still very strong.
Instructor Yin couldn't control this for the time being. After he sat down, he took a bucket of water from behind Zheng Xu and put it on the table.
Ma Le paused for a moment, looked at the pure water in the bucket, and the plastic bottle cap: "Who are you?"
Instructor Yin opened the bottle cap of pure water, took the cup and poured a glass of water for Ma Le, and then said to Ma Le who was still in place:
"Officer Ma, that's actually the case."
"We are from a charitable organization that has a lot of fresh water. Then we found that the fresh water in the country is very scarce, so we want to make a contribution. I hope that the police officer Ma can help to report and coordinate."
The lack of domestic water resources in the No. 7 space-time has been speculated at the expert meeting, and then this view was verified during the drone inspection of the Mutual Rescue Association last time.
Ma Le scratched his head, unable to react for a while.
"Contribution?" He looked at the water on the table, and then at the rare mineral water with industrial traces.
"Do you want to donate a batch of water?" Ma Le blinked.
Instructor Yin nodded.
Ma Le was a little happy immediately, and he didn't care about other situations, so he asked immediately, "How many are there?"
Instructor Yin paused for a moment, and then said mysteriously: "I'm not sure about the exact number yet, but I can be sure that there will be many, many, and the final total will definitely exceed your imagination."
But when he said this vaguely, Ma Le frowned again, uncertain in his mind.
Instructor Yin smiled, said a few words to Zheng Xu, then let him go out, and then sat quietly in his seat, very calm.
Marle still didn't understand what this meant.
Within 2 minutes, he saw his colleague rush in from the outside, winked at him, and signaled him to go out.
Ma Le felt strange, and after apologizing, the colleague left temporarily.
"What's going on? Did something happen outside?"
"Fuck!" Ma Le's colleague blushed, and he grabbed Ma Le's shoulder: "Do you know what's in those trucks?"
"What is it?" Ma Le instinctively leaned back, avoiding his colleague's saliva.
But the next second, he froze.
"It's all water!"
"Water in several carriages!!!"
"Quan Tama is brand new mineral water that has not been opened!"
"Did they tell you to donate the water, go in and agree!"
The colleague's saliva sprayed all over his face, but Ma Le was still dumbfounded and didn't respond at all until he was pushed into the room again by his colleague.
Instructor Yin turned his head and said with a smile: "The next thing is to trouble Officer Ma. Due to some reasons, this is actually just our first batch of supplies."
Ma Le blinked his eyes a few times in a daze, responded with "Ah oh" a few times, and then nodded, the pie falling from the sky was stunned.
……
The other side of the ocean.
Murphy woke up again from the bed.
The little girl immediately followed the bookshelf and observed the book that hadn't fallen off last night, but she found that the whole night had passed, and the book hadn't changed in any way, neither retracted into the bookshelf, nor went out again. Move even a centimeter.
The ghost seems to be gone?
Murphy scratched her head and left the room. After a brief wash, she came to the living room to prepare breakfast.
Her father and grandfather are waiting for her here.
"Murphy, what's the matter? Your spirit is not very good."
Murphy raised his head: "Dad, the ghost seems to have disappeared."
Father Cooper smiled helplessly: "Murphy, I have already told you that there are no ghosts in this world."
"No, it exists. It didn't disappear until last night!"
Little Murphy puffed up his mouth and insisted on his point of view.
Cooper still looked helpless: "Whatever you say, sit down and have breakfast quickly, you and Tom have to go to school today."
The 15-year-old Tom frantically swept all kinds of corn products on the table without raising his head, and the periphery of his mouth was covered with corn paste.
In this day and age, if ordinary people really can't stand a teenager eating like this, only a wealthy family like theirs with [-] acres of corn can stand it.
Grandpa Donald still looked cheerful and knowing his fate, watching the conversation between father and daughter with contentment. In this era, the family is rich, food and clothing are well-fed, and children and grandchildren are around. Apart from the early death of his daughter, he has no other regrets.
Little Murphy sat down depressed, picked up his bowl and began to stuff food into his mouth.
And Cooper also began to arrange work at home, mainly with his son Tom. He was talking to Tom about things in the field. Although he is still in school at the age of 15, he is already one of the main labor force on the family farm. .
Murphy also wanted to insert a sentence in it, but she never participated in the work of the farm, and her father would not let her participate.
After a while, she found a gap in the conversation between father and son: "Dad, is the moon landing real? Our teachers and textbooks say that the moon landing does not exist. It's just a conspiracy..."
As soon as he said these words, his father's eyes turned around immediately, and he was extremely surprised: "What?"
Murphy ate the corn paste and said vaguely: "That's what the teacher said, and the students also said that. It's different from what your book says."
She kept many of her parents' books in her room, including Cooper's teenage textbook, which Murphy could read.
But Cooper seemed a little unable to accept the news. He took a deep breath, pondered for a while before speaking: "Of course it is true, Murphy."
"Don't forget, your father, I am a retired astronaut, and I was once the best pilot!"
Although he barely left the stratosphere, Cooper has always been proud of it deep in his heart, and he did not lie. He has only left the stratosphere once, and he is indeed the best astronaut ever.
It's just that it was for the era he lived in.
Murphy pouted, and poked the corn paste in the bowl a few times with the spoon in his hand: "But why don't we go to the moon now? I can't answer their question."
