I just want to retire quietly

Chapter 36 Rubik's Cube

"You guys just..."

The next day when Liang Xian took Cui and Yu to see assistant teacher Chai, Ah San was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

"Do you know how confidential our actions are?" Ah San reprimanded, "Even many leaders of the country don't know about it, except for the Ministry of Technology Security and the top few leaders of the country, namely Those of us in the operation know clearly, so you just talked about it?"

"Anyway, sooner or later, we have to choose people," Liang Xian said with a look like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, "Why don't you take the initiative?"

"You..." Ah San was almost pissed off by him.

This is the difference between professionals and students. Students always think of things very simply, but Ah San knows that it is not so easy to choose a team member.First of all, there is a political review. The three generations must investigate clearly. Not only the quality of the team members themselves, but also the credit records of the immediate family members must be taken into consideration.People are always easily influenced by those around them. After all, they are social creatures, and it is impossible to only look at one aspect.

"Professor Chai, we are all students in the special class. We have passed the political review when we were admitted, and we have reported the situation of the eight generations of our ancestors. Do you think we will fail the political review?" Cui Heyu heard that Ah San did not trust him. Said unconvinced.

Ah San was so angry that her face turned green, and she said to Liang Xian, "How dare you pull me in when you're like this? You can see that you have a high-minded personality. If something happens to you if you don't obey, whose life will you pay for?"

These days, Ah San has almost gone through all the grades and teacher comments of the members of the interest group from kindergarten to university. He also considered that it is best to choose members from the classmates who Liang Xian and others are familiar with, but he was the first to exclude them. Cui and Yu.

Without him, Cui Heyu is a good student and will become an excellent fighter in the future. His qualifications in all aspects are no worse than Liang Xian.

Just one thing, the sense of competition is too strong, and Liang Xianshi is in the same boat. In the comments of Liang Xian and Cui Heyu, all the instructors made a special note. If Qiu Qizheng is not present, these two people must not be divided into the same team. .

Hearing Ah San talking about himself, Cui Heyu wanted to argue again, but was held down by Qiu Qizheng. He glanced at the squad leader, Qiu Qizheng's expression was unprecedentedly serious, Cui Heyu held back his anger, Shut up and don't speak.

Well, fortunately, Liang Xian also chose Qiu Qizheng, so that Cui Heyu could be suppressed.

Ah San rubbed her temples with a headache: "I can't make the decision on my own. I'll ask instructor Qiao after class in the evening. Even he has to report to the superior."

"Everything is so dogmatic, the 'hole' doesn't wait for anyone." Liang showed a sarcastic smile, "What if you have to enter the 'hole' tonight? Your selection speed is too slow."

"There are emergency countermeasures in case of emergencies, but there is enough time now... Hey, forget it, you have finished selecting people, you can't format the memories of these three people, what else can I say."

Ah San looked at Tan Yan, and said angrily, "Why didn't you stop him?"

After the selection, Tan Yan was under the greatest pressure. He was the one who dragged the six together. Tan Yan was the one who had the most say. Even the organization had to ask for his opinion.

"I think Liang Xian's choice is right. Everyone is a good boy, and I believe in them. And... I also think that if you really want to choose a team member, compared with the strangers assigned by the above, the survival rate of familiar people is higher. .”

Tan Yan smiled gently at Liang Xian, his eyes were full of tolerance and firm support, Liang Xian blushed and lowered his head.

Ah San: "I hope the organization won't punish you."

It was better than Ah San thought. As the main researcher of the "Empty" project, Qiao Zhixue was handed over to him by Director Yu at some point.Hearing that Liang Xian and the others had made a choice, Qiao Zhixue agreed without blinking an eye.

He didn't even need to report to make a decision, but Liang Xian escaped, as long as Qiao Zhixue didn't speak up, they wouldn't have to be punished.

"Let me tell you first, if you participate in this operation, your family members may be protected." Qiao Zhi learned, "Of course this kind of protection is secret, and the person involved will not be aware of it."

Everyone is mentally prepared for this. In general, secret-related personnel in the country may encounter danger. Protecting their family members will not only reassure themselves but also reassure the country. It is the best of both worlds.

None of the family members of the three were abroad, and they were very qualified. Qiao Zhixue passed on their files to Minister Yu, and began to counsel them on matters in the other world in a targeted manner.

"The above is all the information that humans currently have," Qiao Zhixue said after the lecture, "Our exploration of the unknown world has just begun. You can say whatever you have, even if it is wrong. Behind every correct theory, there are There are countless false assumptions and negations, and out of thousands of experiments, even if there is one success, we are victorious."

Those who engage in scientific research know that success often comes with chance, and the countless attempts they have made are to turn chance into necessity.

"I have a question. Since the basis of supernatural powers is consciousness, why can they only be used in different worlds, but not in the real world?" Cui Heyu spoke surprisingly, and the first question hit Liang Xian's sore spot.

Liang Xian knew that it wouldn't be long before he could hide it, but he didn't expect this question to come so soon.

Sure enough, it was because Cui Heyu saw him fly into bed because of his carelessness that day. This question has been hidden in his heart, and he asked the question immediately after he knew the existence of the supernatural power.

"I don't know either," Qiao Zhixue's face remained unchanged, "These are unknown, and you need to find out the answers after going to another world. But everyone should be clear, our operation is life-threatening, and there are orders from the organization , once your life is in danger, you must be the first to be abandoned."

The three of them had known about this for a long time, and Cui Heyu puffed up his chest confidently: "I don't think I will be unable to awaken my ability."

He never felt that he was inferior to Liang Xian, since Liang Xian could do it, so could he.

Qiao Zhixue did not hit Cui Heyu, but nodded: "Of course I hope everyone can awaken."

"What is this?" Yan Yongfeng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked, pointing to a box beside Qiao Zhixue's desk.

Qiao Zhixue opened the box and took out several Rubik's cubes, ranging from the second level to the seventeenth level, some assembled and some messed up.

Liang Xian casually picked up a common third-order Rubik's cube on the market, twisted it a few times and assembled all six sides of the Rubik's cube. Seeing this, Cui Heyu picked up a fourth-order Rubik's cube, and quickly turned the Rubik's cube with both hands. Liang Xian could solve the third-order Rubik's Cube even faster.

The world record for the fourth-order Rubik's Cube is 18.42 seconds. Cui Heyu only took 20 seconds. Judging by his proud expression, the speed should be even faster.

"You brought this box to us?" Liang Xian asked.

"That's right," Qiao Zhixue handed the Rubik's Cube to everyone, "Our class today is to play with the Rubik's Cube."

Every move of Qiao Zhixue has meaning, he will not let everyone play with toys casually.Everyone picked up the Rubik's Cube and turned it around. For example, Liang Xian and Cui Heyu reached out to the [-]th-level Rubik's Cube, but Tan Yan didn't dare to touch such a high-level Rubik's Cube. After finishing the first-order Rubik's Cube, I went to get the third-order Rubik's Cube.

His speed was not very fast, but when Liang Xian and Cui Heyu were competing to turn the seventeenth order Rubik's Cube, Tan Yan completed the second to sixteenth order Rubik's Cube almost at a uniform speed.

Qiao Zhixue didn't pay much attention at first. After all, the third-order, fourth-order and fifth-order Rubik's Cubes are common in the market. As long as you search for strategies on the Internet, you can quickly restore them.But from the sixth level upwards, the number of changes is very scary. If you have not received training in this area, it is difficult to restore the Rubik's Cube.

Moreover, the number of changes in the Rubik's Cube grows exponentially. If it takes 2 minutes for a person to restore the third-order Rubik's Cube, it may take an hour to restore the tenth-order Rubik's Cube, and the sixteenth-order is even more terrifying.

But Tan Yan takes 2 minutes for any Rubik's Cube, from the second to the sixteenth order.

Liang Xian and Cui Heyu were spinning the Rubik's Cube wildly at first, but then they slowly stopped moving, and they all stared at Tan Yan's hand.

It seems that there is nothing special, just turn it a few times easily, and the Rubik's Cube will be restored directly.But for some reason, even though they kept staring at Tan Yan, they still couldn't see some movements clearly. Liang Xian had used his consciousness, but still couldn't see clearly.

Putting down the Rubik's Cube of the [-]th order, Tan Yan saw that only two of the [-]th order were in the hands of Liang Xian and Cui Heyu, so he didn't take it.

Finding that everyone was looking at him, Tan Yan smiled embarrassedly: "It's the first time I played, it was quite fun."

Everyone: "..."

first?Really fun?

Do you know how many Guinness World Records you broke in just a few minutes?

"Give him the Rubik's Cube." Qiao Zhixue said to the two who occupied the [-]th-order Rubik's Cube.

Liang Xian quickly handed over the Rubik's Cube, and took the opportunity to rub Tan Yan's finger. The sharp-eyed Cui Heyu showed a blank expression, it was too stupid.

Tan Yan took the Rubik's Cube and turned it quickly. After 2 minutes, the [-]th-order Rubik's Cube was restored, and it was placed on the table together with the [-] previous Rubik's Cubes in a row.

Yan Yongfeng rubbed his eyes vigorously: "My observation ability is top-notch in the class, but why... I can't see clearly when he turns to the hundredth time?"

"You see one hundred? I can't do it after fifty strokes, my eyes are dazzled." Cui Heyu shook his head.

A hundred times?Liang Xian looked at Yan Yongfeng, he had already used his consciousness, but he still only lasted up to ninety times, and after that, his brain became dizzy, and he couldn't keep up with Tan Yan's movements.

Qin Li Qiu Qizheng, who can only see the [-]-year-old Ah San: "..."

"One hundred?" Qiao Zhixue glanced at Yan Yongfeng, "You have good observation skills, I only watched it eighty times."

Cui Heyu: "..."

Even though he knew that Qiao Zhixue's IQ was far beyond ordinary people, he still felt competitive.

"How did you do it?" Qiao Zhixue asked Tan Yan.

Seeing everyone staring at him, Tan Yan was a little embarrassed. He rubbed his hands and said nervously: "I don't know, it seems that once the Rubik's Cube is in my hand, I know which direction to turn, and the Rubik's Cube is also very smooth. It recovered after a few clicks."

Anyone who is familiar with Tan Yan knows that he only has this answer, and he can't explain the reason at all. Qiao Zhixue and the others were slightly disappointed, but Liang Xian said with admiration: "You are probably the kind of person with super mobility. You have to grind and analyze and calculate, but you act before thinking, and when we hesitate, the task has been completed."

Cui Heyu: "..."

Can this blow?

Qiao Zhixue knocked on the table to attract everyone's attention, "Why do you think I brought so many Rubik's Cubes today?"

Liang Xian had already guessed when he saw the Rubik's Cube: "Parallel world, Rubik's Cube universe? Do you think our time travel is related to the Rubik's Cube?"

"It's just a guess, and I'm not sure at first, but seeing Tan Yan's performance, I think the possibility of this hypothesis is very high." Qiao Zhixue said, "All celestial bodies in the universe have their own trajectory, and we all know that motion is Absolute, static is relative. Then suppose that in the four-dimensional or even five-dimensional space, the universe we live in and other parallel universes are like this Rubik's cube, arranged in parallel one by one, never intersecting each other, and moving according to their own trajectories. "

"Then there are countless universes around us, and they are changing at any time. If we travel to other universes, even if we follow the original path, we will never be able to return to our own universe." Cui Heyu continued.

"Unless there is quantum entanglement with the tombstone like Tan Yan, and he is not limited by distance and space, he can return to the real world." Liang Xian also analyzed.

Ah San, who couldn't keep up with the thinking of smart people at all: "..."

Obviously he has also studied quantum mechanics, not to mention he is not as good as Qiao Zhi and Liang Xian, why can't he even keep up with Cui Heyu's thinking?

Fortunately, Ah San didn't care about that, and asked directly: "Then what does the Rubik's Cube have to do with the "void"? Whether your hypothesis is true or not has anything to do with Tan Yan breaking the Rubik's Cube world record?"

"The barrier of our world has collapsed." Liang Xian picked up a Rubik's cube, removed a small piece, and cut a hole in it. "For example, this Rubik's cube has a gap on the top. If it is filled with water, the water will It will continue to flow out. But because there is a boundary between the world and the world, and the boundaries of other Rubik's Cubes block this gap, so there will be no problem for the time being. But if we encounter a world that has collapsed or even completely broken, the water will It's going to flow from our world into a broken world because of stress issues."

"Of course, the barrier of the macrocosm is definitely not as simple as we can imagine, so Tan Yan leaves and comes back through the 'void', forming a circular circle, the energy generated in it temporarily blocks the 'void', giving us A chance to live on." Qiao Zhixue continued to explain.

"But it's only temporary," Cui Heyu quickly followed their train of thought, "The area at the same longitude as Ping County is this gap, and with the frequent appearance of 'holes', we are constantly in contact with the collapsed world, the gap It is getting bigger and bigger, so now the scope of the 'hole' has expanded to the surrounding area of ​​City B."

"The change of the 7.458th-order Rubik's Cube is approximately equal to 10*813 to the [-]th power. This number is so terrifying that humans cannot calculate it, and this is only the [-]th-order Rubik's Cube. If the number of parallel worlds increases to [-]th, [-]th, and [-]th In our lifetime, even if we enter a world overnight, it is impossible to encounter repeated worlds." Qiao Zhixue said, "Once there is no quantum entanglement as a guide, you will be exiled to other universes forever, I hope you will remember this This is something more terrifying than death."
