Earth Era

"As for the second hypothesis... The hypothesis is that due to some accidental reasons, a large number of heavy elements accumulate in the core of the sun, reducing the radiation power of the sun, and because in extreme environments, heavy elements and light elements meet and participate in fusion together, and The participation of some unknown reasons led to a more intense fusion reaction in the core of the sun, putting the sun in a dangerous equilibrium stage. It doesn't expand in size because of runaway nuclear fusion, it's just a decrease in temperature..."

"It's ridiculous." Zhao Huasheng shook his head, "It's impossible. With the mass of the sun, the temperature and pressure of the core of the sun cannot reach such a high level that heavy elements can participate in fusion."

"There are also many people in the scientific research department who are against these two hypotheses, but at this moment... we have no clue. There is no testable hypothesis. These two hypotheses are being tested. It's better than we are like headless flies," Mondro said. "The truth is... In the face of this bizarre change that is far beyond our technological level, we just have to keep it like this. Any idea that might lead to a breakthrough. We have to try to verify the ridiculous idea.”

"It is precisely because of this that I receive such attention." Zhao Huasheng smiled bitterly.

"Yes." Meng Zhuo nodded: "That's why the head of state said that more than half of the fate of human beings on earth is in your hands."

Zhao Huasheng nodded and fell back into silence.

Outside the window is still the same scenery, ice and snow, cold wind, and gloomy sky. Even in the fully sealed cabin, Zhao Huasheng seemed to be able to feel the severe cold of the outside world. It was so cold that even polar bears, known for their cold resistance, shivered.

Li Wei also stared blankly at the scenery outside the window, her thoughts seemed to have drifted to somewhere long ago.

"Is there any progress in the psychological expert group?" Zhao Huasheng asked.

"There is no major progress." Meng Zhuo said, "By analyzing Li Qi's psychology and the traces left by Li Qi, the psychological expert group judged that Li Qi noticed you a long time ago. Li Qi once called Your data also personally interfered with your work arrangement. This is very unusual, you must know that you were just an intern at that time, and Li Qi was the director of the entire Institute of Stellar Physics. "

Hearing the name "Li Qi", Li Wei recovered from her reverie.

"Yes, I can confirm this." Li Wei said, "My brother has mentioned you at least ten times in front of me. Usually, my brother never tells me about work."

"It's a pity that even the psychologist group can't judge why Li Qi paid attention to you. Otherwise, the riddles Li Qi left us would be easy to solve," said Mengzhuo.

Zhao Huasheng smiled bitterly: "Even I can't figure out what aspects of me deserve Director Li Qi's attention. Indeed, I was just an intern at that time, and I didn't have any reason to pay attention. Having said that, the psychology expert group Can you tell when Director Li Qi started paying attention to me? If I know the exact time, I may be able to make some guesses."

"About two years ago. This time is almost the same as the time when Li Qi started to change and "becomes not like himself". I just don't know whether Director Li Qi first noticed you before making the change, or whether it happened first. I noticed the change after I noticed yours. Well, there is an accurate time point for one thing, which is recorded within the education system. A year, ten months and nine days ago, Director Li Qi was removed from the education system. I retrieved your student status file. Probably because Director Li Qi has no authority, this retrieval record has not been deleted."

"One year, ten months and nine days ago..." Zhao Huasheng fell into deep thought.

"September 5, 2013, at 10:08 pm." Mengzhuo added, "By restoring the monitoring data in the research institute, as well as restoring your computer, phone records, and monitoring around your place of residence For the record, the psychologist team confirmed that that day was just an ordinary day for you. You left home at 8am to go to work, went to lunch at 12:21pm, then lay down on the table and took a nap, Come home at 6:13pm, and at home, you make your own dinner, play games for an hour and thirty-nine minutes, browse some websites, and then go to sleep. There's nothing to focus on for the day."

"The team of psychologists is looking for records about you in previous times. Of course, because time has passed, the records found can't be very complete. If this point in time can make you recall anything, then It couldn't be better," Mondro said.

"I can't think of anything I've done." Zhao Huasheng thought for a while, and finally shook his head, "Give me all the records you have collected about me. From the earliest possible acquaintance between me and Director Li Qi. From the beginning of time until Director Li Qi called up my file records."

"Okay." Meng Zhuo said lightly, "This is the data that has been collected so far, and the rest of the data is being collected by the psychology expert group. This time period is as long as one year, and there will be a lot of data, you can take a look at it slowly. , remember slowly."

Zhao Huasheng nodded silently, and took the notebook handed over by Meng Zhuo. Looking at the above text, audio, and video records, Zhao Huasheng fell into long-term memories until the helicopter began to land.

Zhao Huasheng put away his notebook, put on special cold-proof clothes, and walked out of the cabin. Not far from the landing point of the helicopter, dozens of low-rise bungalows formed a residential compound, and several staff members, also wearing heavy winter clothing, were already waiting there.

The Arctic Long Mountain Station is built on the ice sheet near the North Pole. Because of its proximity to the North Pole, it is frozen all year round and the climate is cold. The lowest temperature of the earth measured some time ago was measured by the staff of Changshan Station.

The solid ice cap underfoot is no different from the land. Although there is no land here, the ice sheets can be more than 30 meters thick, and they are as tough as land. There is snow on top of the ice cap, and when the cold wind blows, the snow will be rolled up, making the whole sky look a little gray. Even with a thick hat, Zhao Huasheng could still hear the whimper of the cold wind.

It was the polar day here, and although it was already night, the sun was still hanging in the sky and refused to set. It's just that there seems to be little difference between the sun and the absence of the sun, and its little heat can't bring any change here.

Standing on the ice cap of the North Pole, facing the blizzard and paleness in the sky, an ancient and wild, icy and desolate feeling filled Zhao Huasheng's mind. Along with this feeling, there is also a sense of powerlessness when facing the nature of the universe as a small human being.

"The weather is getting colder and colder." A staff member who came up sighed, took the supply box handed over from the medical and security team members, and asked, "When we evacuate, we sit on the Go with these guys?"

"Yes." Mengzhuo nodded: "We also undertake the task of helping you capture biological specimens such as polar bears, wolves, arctic foxes, and reindeer."

"I really don't understand. If you retreat, retreat and catch those animals." The staff member complained, then turned and beckoned to the back: "What are you still doing, come and move things."

Under the busyness of everyone, the supplies were quickly moved from the helicopter to the residential area. The helicopter was properly placed to prevent it from being frozen. Zhao Huasheng, Meng Zhuo, Li Wei and others entered the house with special cold-resistant layout.

The double-layer glass with special structure keeps the excellent light transmission performance while blocking the cold of the outside world. Zhao Huasheng took off his heavy winter clothes and sat in front of the table in front of the window, staring out of the window in a daze. After a long time, Zhao Huasheng took out the information that Meng Zhuo gave him and checked it carefully.

This time I saw it was twelve o'clock in the evening. UU reading www.uukanshu. The sun was still hanging in the sky and refused to set, but Zhao Huasheng felt a tiredness spreading from the depths of his heart. Zhao Huasheng rubbed his forehead, pulled down the curtains, and lay down on the bed.

"I always wanted to come to the North Pole to see the aurora with my own eyes, but now I have really reached the North Pole, but the aurora is gone." Zhao Huasheng smiled bitterly in his heart.

Auroras are produced when a stream of energetic charged particles from the sun collides with the Earth's magnetic field. Now that the level of solar radiation has dropped so much, the aurora is naturally no longer visible.

This can probably be regarded as the first thing lost on the earth because of the cooling of the sun. But Zhao Huasheng didn't feel so sad or lost, because Zhao Huasheng knew that in the next period of time, the earth will lose more, more than everyone can imagine and beyond the limit of everyone's tolerance.

In this slightly uneasy state of mind, listening to the cold wind whistling outside the window, accompanied by this somewhat pale world, Zhao Huasheng entered his first dreamland after arriving at the North Pole.

When I woke up, the sun was still hanging in the sky and did not set. After having breakfast with the staff of Changshan Station and packing up his body, Zhao Huasheng put on heavy cold clothes again, and left with Li Wei, Meng Zhuo and others, as well as the staff of Changshan Station. base.

"Our task today is to catch at least three polar bears, and it would be even better if we can catch two more reindeer along the way," the staff member said.
