The Magician of the Star

Watching Shen Xingji enter the school surrounded by his classmates, Slessor turned around and got on the speeding car.

Slessor was not in a hurry to leave Tianyuanxing.

Tianyuan Star is an academic star. There are not only many top universities, but also many top research institutes.Most of the research institutes are like the lab that pushed the man-machine conversion rate of the 28Yhk mecha to 99.982% in yesterday's news, and belong to various top universities.But there are also some laboratories, which belong to enterprises or private individuals.

Slessor stayed in Tianyuanxing for two more days, and there seemed to be no problems with the itinerary.Compared with other tourists, his itinerary is more elegant. Others are keen to check in at Internet celebrity attractions, but he does not. He stayed in the largest open library in the central galaxy for an afternoon.Today's libraries generally do not provide paper books, but access to virtual screens. Depending on the credit rating of citizens, everyone has different permissions when borrowing books.Slessor's authority is very high.

This is due to the fact that Slessor donated all the property belonging to his original identity when he used the identity of Giles, and after changing back to his real name, he did not have any bad records, so his credit rating has always maintained the highest level.

Slessor scanned all the star chart books that could be found in the library into his optical brain.

Star Map is the abbreviation of Star Domain Map.Before the emergence of others, the profession of "explorer" was on the rise.Explorers will drive private or more corporate-funded spaceships to the edge of the galaxy to explore those unknown star fields. If they can find a resource star by chance and prove that the resources on it can be mined, then they will earn money. crazy!

Most of the books related to star maps that can be found in the library are left over from the exploration period.

After the war broke out, the "explorer" profession was officially suspended, and the star map became a military resource.Even if the star map has been updated since then, it often exists in the supplementary pages of books such as "Records of Certain Battle Command", "Real Time Report of a Certain Type of Patrol Vessel", and "Conventional Laws of Certain Coordinates".There are very few star map resources that can be searched by the public on the star network.

With the line of the three housekeepers in his hand, Slessor can mobilize the resources of the Thomson family to a certain extent, and obtain some resource sharing quietly.He wanted to update his star library, but there was no need to come to the library at all.

But Slessor came anyway, and he clearly had a plan of his own.

After collecting a lot of materials in the library, Slesser went to taste the special food of Tianyuanxing.What satisfies him most is a food that uses some kind of seaweed plant as the main raw material, which has a very peculiar taste.It is said that this kind of seaweed has high requirements on the living environment and can only grow in a specific sea area. It is a precious thing that only the rich can afford.

Slessor admired its taste too much.

For magicians, the greatest joy of making money is to allow themselves to have all kinds of wonderful enjoyment at any time.Oh, now there is one more thing, which is to let Shen Xingji get all kinds of wonderful experiences anytime and anywhere.

As a result, several carefully packaged "Ocean Forest" appeared on Zhi Anlan's desk.

The military academy has strict rules and regulations, and after finding out that sending things to professors is easier than sending things to students, Slessor will certainly not let Zhi Anlan go!So Professor Zhi looked at the several copies of Ocean Forest silently, forget it, because Slessor is still sensible-there are four copies here, obviously one each for Zhi Anlan, Wen Da, Wei Xuanming and Shen Xingji Copies——Professor Zhi kept his own and asked the robot assistant to deliver the other three to the students and their families.

Two days later, Slessor finally left Tianyuanxing.He left a real record of the entry and exit of Tianyuan star and Neptune star.After returning to Poseidon, he once again lived a leisurely life of reading books, growing flowers, and sorting out materials.

A week later, an explosion occurred in a not-so-famous private research institute on Tianyuan Planet.

The research institute obviously wanted to suppress the bombing, but the impact of the bombing was huge.Although there were no casualties outside the research institute—after all, the laboratory must consider whether it can avoid damage to the surrounding environment in the event of an extreme accident—after all, the dust cloud formed by the explosion sent a signal to the surroundings. shield.

It is said that the signal shielding formed by the explosion seriously affected the work progress of another research institute.

The institute that exploded wanted to make the major incident into a trivial matter, but the institute that was delayed didn't do it.The results of two years of research just turned into water!They said angrily: "There must be something wrong with them (referring to the institute where the explosion occurred)! What kind of explosion can cause such a strong signal shielding? Unless there is an excessive amount of metal bars in their laboratory!"

La metal is produced from parent marble and is a very, very rare metal.

In the central galaxy, before the tower others appeared, the production and use of La was already under the control of the government and the supervision of the military, not to mention that it is now a time of war!The research institute where the explosion occurred certainly cannot accept the charge of using an overdose of Lala. Instead, they gave a bunch of reasons, trying to explain that the explosion was caused by a certain reason and caused a certain consequence, which led to such a serious signal shield.At first glance, it sounds like that is indeed the case.

But everyone is engaged in research. The research institute that was delayed is affiliated to the Athena Comprehensive Military Academy. This is the fourth military academy in the Central Galaxy. It sends a large number of talents to each group army every year. The researchers were delayed in their research. It was already very popular, but you still jump to accuse us, thinking that we have slandered you?

Frankly speaking, the institute that was delayed initially accused the institute that exploded of having excess metal la, which was indeed an accusation without evidence in a fit of rage, but the institute that exploded gave a bunch of reasons and countered The delayed research institute came to accuse them of falsely accusing them. The delayed research institute got serious. They started with the dust cloud after the explosion, and through a large number of calculations, they used data to prove that the reasons given by the exploded research institute did not work at all. !

At the end of the day, the delayed research found out—fuck, you guys really have an excess of metal bars!

The delayed research institute hastened to report this matter to the Athena Comprehensive Military Academy. Excessive metal lamination, this is no longer something they can handle with a small research institute. Behind this may be corruption of the government and the military. The question is, how did these metal bars enter the explosion laboratory? It makes people dare not think about it!

So far, this matter has naturally become a big deal.

The Explosion Research Institute is a private research institute whose research direction is gravitational weapons.As we all know, any object has gravity, which is an effect of space-time curvature.The ripples created when space-time bends are called gravitational waves, and they can penetrate places that electromagnetic waves cannot.All weapons that use gravitational waves to attack according to the principle of gravity are called gravitational weapons.Its significance to interstellar warfare is somewhat similar to the nuclear bombs possessed by various powers in the ancient earth period.

Although it is of great significance, in this technological era, it is difficult for gravitational weapons to produce results.

The current level of technology has indeed been able to compress a large mass into a small volume, form an artificial black hole, and increase the curvature of space-time at the boundary of the black hole.But to create a gravitational weapon, this is only the first step.

The mainstream technology community is full of yearning for gravitational weapons, but they all have to admit that it belongs to the next era.

Of course, this explosive research institute has no scientific research results.

When nothing happens, this is normal.It was originally a private laboratory, and it was still researching gravitational weapons. Even if it didn't make any research progress in three, five, or ten years, that would be perfectly normal.Everyone knows that in terms of gravitational weapons, as long as a small breakthrough is made to existing technology, it will be a major event in the history of science!

As a result, this explosive research institute was hidden in many research institutes in a low-key manner, and never attracted the attention of others.

But isn't something wrong now?

If you are a research institute that studies gravitational weapons, it’s fine if you don’t have any scientific research output, so what has the entire research institute relied on for so many years?Then, what channels and methods did you use to get so many metal ladles?What are you going to do with the metal bars?Don't say that researching gravitational weapons requires metal bars, oh, what a liar!

The investigation department quickly obtained the top search warrant.

However, before they could conduct an in-depth investigation of this private research institute, another explosion occurred.It was the same research institute that exploded, and they had a second explosion.The explosion this time was even more terrifying. The entire research institute and surrounding buildings were all razed to the ground.All the staff in the institute died in the explosion, and there were no survivors.

This is too much like destroying evidence and killing people!

While organizing a team to continue investigating the ruins after the explosion, the investigation part set its sights on the Thomson family's charitable foundation.According to the investigation, this private institute has always been on the foundation's funding list.

"I'm sorry." The person in charge of the foundation very cooperatively provided the application form that the Institute of Explosion had filled out on the official website of the foundation. "All the information is here. The reason why we are willing to provide The funding is because after several rounds of investigations by the review department, we have determined that the information he provided at that time is true. He published many papers related to gravitational wave weapons during his school days, and the foundation considered him worthy of funding after discussion."

The person in charge was very cooperative and calm. The accident happened at the institute because Waters failed the trust of the foundation.At most, the foundation will be charged with ineffective supervision.However, there is too much room for maneuver behind the words "weak supervision".

Those in charge believe that they will eventually be proven innocent.

--------

So far, everyone has ignored the question of how the first explosion happened.

In other words, this issue is no longer important.Whether it was an illegal operation or an accident during the research process, although that explosion triggered all the subsequent things, the issue itself is not important anymore.

No one would have guessed that Slessor had anything to do with the first explosion.

After all, when the explosion happened, the entry and exit records could prove that this man had been staying at his home on Neptune.
