Most Wanted [Interstellar]

Chapter 15

"The traction rope is behind the survey vehicle. There is a hydraulic pump there, which is electronically controlled. After a while, drive the vehicle to a place about ten meters above the ground seam, anchor the vehicle to the ground, and then tie the safety rope to the ground. Sew down, your chip will help you lower to the location of the geothermal source receiver according to the instructions of the engineering drawing. After you complete the repair, use the electronic control device to let the survey vehicle pull you up. The seam here is as deep as Kilometers, the receiver is probably at a depth of 50 meters, it will not pose a threat to your life, if all equipment is good."

"..." Before Alvin said the last sentence, Schlieffen was relatively calm.

"If the equipment fails, I can't help, ah... I can help you shout for help, pretending that there are other people on this planet, will it give you some comfort."

"I hate you!" Schlieffen got out of the car, he walked around the back of the car, and found the tow rope behind the car.

"Why do you hate me?"

"You know very well that I will definitely jump. Alpha will not show timidity in front of Omega, never." Schlieffen found the safety rope and put it on his body according to the instructions.

Alvin laughed in front, louder and louder.

"Is it so funny?" Schlieffen had already put on a full safety suit when he came back.

Anyone wearing heat protection suits will look like a fat man, and a tall alpha will look like a super fat man.

"Hello, Fatty, I'm just kidding you."

"?" Schlieffen put on the hood, but the audio has not been connected, "What? I can't hear clearly."

"The control end of the receiver is outside the valley. There is a concrete platform 50 meters to the left. Just go there and repair it." Alvin looked at him with a smile, wearing an orange heat-resistant safety suit. He's really funny.

"What? What did you say?" Schlieffen seemed to have a problem with the audio. He fixed the car and pulled out the safety rope. "I adjusted the settings of the hydraulic pump. I'm ready to jump now."

"Hey!"

"What did you say?" Schlieffen walked towards the cliff.

"I said, I'm kidding, the outside of the receiver, hey!"

The fool's audio seemed to be really faulty, and Erwin saw him striding towards the cliff.

"Hey! Come back!" Alvin quickly scanned the inside of the car, but didn't see anything that could help him. He can't move now, he can't even press a button, so he can only shout at him, " Hello! Schlieffen! Hello!"

Schlieffen had already reached the edge of the cliff, and he made a movement of spreading his wings and flying: "Hi! Alvin, the scenery in front of me is beautiful! I'm going to jump!"

"Hey!!!"

Schlieffen bends his knees, squats, and...

He turned back and said, "My audio is good, I can hear it all, 50 meters, concrete platform, this is just a joke, hahahahaha!"

"..."

"I also heard you call me fat."

"...Okay!"

"Your voice is trembling!"

"It's current fluctuations!"

"Hello! I'm Alvin, a scientist who likes to think wildly. I thought I was very smart, but I was deceived just now, so, Mr. Schlieffen is right, I am a little fool." Schlieffen was wearing a bulky jacket. Thermal safety suits bouncing around the edge of a cliff.

Erwin now wishes he had better slipped and actually fell.

But Schlieffen bounced back safely in his fat clothes. He took off the hood and wiped the sweat from his face: "Shh! Don't talk! Unless you want to praise me!"

"Okay, I won't talk."

Schlieffen took off the thermal safety suit and put it away: "If I really jumped, would you cry about it?"

"Yes, omega's tears are not worth much. I will cry several times when I watch a romantic movie."

"Thank you, I'm quite satisfied with that."

"You're welcome, if you really danced, I'd be the one to cry stupidly."

Schlieffen unbuckled his seat belt and picked him up: "Where is the concrete platform you said?"

"Left, yes, go forward, see?"

"Do you know what a hug is called?"

"?"

Shilieffen looked at him: "This is called a princess hug."

"Oh," Alvin said in a bad tone, "here, you can put the princess down now."

"Okay, stupid scientist, from now on I will call this position: Little Fool's Hug." Schlieffen put him down and found some rocks to help him sit.

The small concrete table was painted so brightly that it could be seen from a distance. Schlieffen found a screwdriver and pried off the outer panel, revealing the controller inside.

"It should be that the earthquake just knocked off the temperature sensing ring. The geothermal here is not very stable. You should measure the temperature before reconnecting. Don't burn out the power supply of the entire monitoring station." Alvin continued to guide .

"Ah," Schlieffen turned on his bio-display, and the repair steps popped up on the display, "I'll fix it."

"Then you can fix it yourself, why did you bring me here?"

Schlieffen found the temperature sensing ring, which was indeed an old device. He had never seen it before. Fortunately, the principle was similar. He disassembled the sensing ring according to the drawings and began to repair it.

"Just now, when I was standing on the edge of the cliff," Schlieffen put the screwdriver in his mouth, "I really think this place is very beautiful, so I took you out to have a look."

"I've worked here for many years and I've seen it all."

Schlieffen ignored his incomprehension: "How did you feel when you first came here?"

Alvin glanced at the sky, which was dotted with stars in the dark sky, just like the first time he saw it here more than 60 years ago: "Stars, I feel a lot of stars."

This is a bad sentence, Schlieffen thought, this person should fail the literature class as well as the aesthetics class.

"I've been to Titan once," said Schlieffen, who got a perfect score in literature class. "In our school's tourism class, in addition to the museum, we also went to a shopping city on Titan that day. I remember it was called Star Paradise. The shopping mall The sky in the city is like this, high and far, nothing, and full of stars. Under the starry sky is the candy city, hot and sweet, and today I think of it again, these are two similar illusions.”

Alvin knew the shopping city he was talking about, but he was no longer a child when he went there, and he didn't think it was beautiful.

"I'm never going back."

Alvin was puzzled: "Titan is not far from Oswald, is it?"

"I'm talking about time!" Schlieffen rolled his eyes at him, "You are just like this temperature sensing ring! It's complicated! It's also meaningless!"

This time Erwin did not refute, he looked back at the clear sky: "Sometimes I also wish I was a poet."

Sometimes he also thinks the world is beautiful.

Schlieffen replaced the temperature sensing loop he had repaired, reconnected all the equipment, and the heating fault at the monitoring station of the engineering drawing reality was repaired.Schlieffen turned off his display screen and leaned in front of Alvin: "In your eyes, am I a poet?"

Alvin glanced at him: "Yes, you are suitable for writing funny poems."

"You will regret what you said today." Schlieffen hugged him with a 'fool's hug', "I promise you!"

Alvin, of course, took this sentence as a deaf ear.

Wind is flowing air. When it is large enough, it cannot be ignored, but when it is small enough, this flow has a contemptuous meaning.The wind in the ear is probably the wind of contempt.

Anne Schubert returned from the presidential palace with a hand full of cooked food from the convenience store. She obviously took Galen's warning to her as a wind of contempt.Not only did she buy cooked food, she also had a glass of honey and fresh milk in her mouth, which she sizzled with a straw.

When she opened the door and saw Jialin and his flowered apron, she froze for a moment, and then she realized that she had completely forgotten about him.

"You haven't left yet?" Annie asked.

"Yeah!" Galen snatched the things from her mouth and hands, and threw them into the trash can precisely. The settings of the trash can should have been changed by him, and the trash thrown in was instantly sent to the central recycling bin of the apartment. .

"..."

"Don't be sad, they will be sorted into recyclable garbage and become bio-chemical fertilizers, and the green plants on Titan will help you eat them with gratitude." Galen carried her through the door, "Is everything going well with the president? I use Sugar Substitute made you biscuits."

This false sweetness gave Annie some comfort.

"Never once met him was it smooth." Annie looked for cream in the refrigerator.

"I haven't met him, but I've heard he's a gentleman who doesn't like to embarrass people." Galen lifted the dishes out of the pot, and he made chickpeas in tomato sauce and dill scones.

"Why is he embarrassing a captain? You're just passing by, and you're saluting him. Maybe he's going to stop and say: Hey! Stupid soldier, tell me what you think of your Field Marshal Johannes ?” Annie didn’t find cream or jam, so she had to close the refrigerator door, “How many things did you throw at me?”

"It seems that there is a lot of resentment!" Galen pushed her to the dining table. "What about your other reports? I see that you wrote all night. The content of the report must be very exciting, right?"

"My dear doctoral advisor, Mr. Erwin Herman, got rid of the big black hole, making it impossible for the military to provide supplies to all the frontlines. Captain Galen, do you think that if you were the president, wouldn't you be most concerned about this? something?"

"It's a pity that I'm not the president." Galen poured a glass of juice to the angry woman in front of him, "Pomegranate juice can make my little cutie more beautiful."

Annie sighed: "All he cares about is the news about my mentor, he suspects that everyone who has come into contact with him has an affair with him, Planck, Johannes, and I don't even know it doesn't include me .”

"After all, he's a charming omega."

"You haven't seen him," Annie said, taking a sip. She thought pomegranate juice was the worst juice in the world. Seduce him in front of him, he won't even look at you, Captain."

"You also have an ugly expression when you talk about him." Galen mixed the pomegranate juice into his wine and shook it, and the leftover champagne in the glass immediately turned a strange color.

Only then did Annie remember her report: "Go ahead and eat," she put some sugar substitute biscuits in a paper bag, "Since you're going to live here, please help me feed the fish, I'm going back to the office now."

Jia Lin was taken aback: "You mean to press this button to feed the fish?" He ran to the fish tank and pressed the feeding button, and the parrot fish in the tank swam to the feeding port one after another and began to grab food.

"Yes, press it every day, and press it for me when I forget to come back." Annie grabbed her coat from the sofa, "I sleep in the office at night, you can do whatever you want."

"Hey, hey, I've already fed the fish for you," Galen stopped her, "I'll go with you."

"What are you doing here?" Annie was a little puzzled.

"Am I your bodyguard?" That's what Galin said.

It was already mealtime, and there weren't too many cars on the street. Annie drove her car onto the city road, and the mobile billboards around her quickly began to stuff advertisements on her car window.

"Why do you like living in such a noisy place!" Galen disliked all kinds of commercial activities in the capital very much. He angrily opened the operation panel and began to manually delete advertisements.

"I don't like a deserted environment." Annie shrugged and continued to drive her car.

There are endless advertisements, so Galen gave up trying: "Isn't your report finished? What are you rushing back to the office for now?"

Annie remembered the report again: "The collapse of the big black hole will affect all aspects. With the existing technology, this is the only interstellar route. I am very worried that Irwin ruined it."

"worry about what?"

"I'm worried that he is not looking for someone to seek revenge, and that he still maintains a rigorous scientific heart to practice his theories. You have speculated about his intentions, remember? You think he will hate me, ordinary people He should hate it..." Annie looked back at Galen, "But we may be just ants in his eyes, not worthy of his hatred or love, we are just a part of his experiment."

"What experiment." Unconsciously, Galen put down the operation panel in his hand.

"He wants to reverse the genetic modification technology and bring humans back to the original. He believes that if humans want to evolve, they have to pay the price, the price of life. He is not a crazy Frankenstein. He has rigorous deduction data. According to his plan, humans It is indeed possible to leave the flesh and blood body and lead to a higher-dimensional world. This point, neither I nor Planck, nor other scientists who understand this matter can refute him. Now he cuts off the connection of the big black hole, It is very likely that we want to isolate the galaxy we are in into an independent experimental area. Now we are seven light years away from the nearest stable black hole, and it will take two years for the curvature engine spacecraft to get there. Two years... Annie sighed, "It's enough for him to destroy our current civilization..."

Galen had heard a few words, but like most people, he didn't believe that such a thing could be done by a single person's ability.

So he asked a question that had nothing to do with what he wanted to know:

"Since what he said is right, why do you refute him?"

Annie turned her head and was taken aback for a moment.

At this moment, a car drove out from the fork, and before Annie could react, Galen suddenly hugged her head into his arms.

She heard a loud bang, and then she felt herself spin at high speed, and then hit the ground heavily.

"Galen?" she said unconsciously, and then she completely lost consciousness.
