Long Yujing is six years older than Chu Di, which means that she was already 6 years old when Lidong Pharmaceutical was reorganized into Long's Pharmaceutical.
A 6-year-old child can already remember things, let alone a proud daughter like Long Yujing, so he immediately asked: "Lidong Pharmaceutical? Isn't that the predecessor of my company? What is your mother's name?"
Chu Di said: "Her name is Chu Ling. She had an ex-husband who was killed by Hao Yunlai. He is Huang Ling's biological father. I regard Huang Ling as my sister, so I call her father my ex-father." When talking about this topic,
By the way, he also explained his previous plan to kill Hao Yunlai.
He was flying the plane while talking, and naturally he didn't turn around to see Long Yujing's surprised face. He only heard Long Yujing say: "Your mother turned out to be Aunt Chu. I remember that Aunt Chu and my mother have a very good relationship."
ah!"
Chu Di couldn't help but wonder after hearing this. According to Long Yujing's words, Long Yaojing shouldn't have been so cold when she learned that the person she wanted her to help find was Chu Ling.
One thing he ignored was that his mother had disappeared when Long Yaojing remembered things, and before that, Long Yaojing didn't remember things at all.
Long Yujing added: "Leave this matter to me. When my mother returns to the solar system, I will ask her directly where my Aunt Chu has gone. She will definitely know."
Chu Di said happily: "Then I'll thank you first, sister."
"How do you say thank you? Is it necessary to say this between siblings?"
At this time, the three crew members were all relaxed, just like when they flew from the earth, traveling in the vast sea of stars, talking and laughing along the way, and inadvertently, a few hours passed.
Long Yujing was always cautious and always asked Tao Bao to report the distance between his plane and Ceres. When he was still 2 million kilometers away from Ceres, Long Yujing asked Chu Di: "Do you want to find a place to hide? There are only twenty
It’s only minutes away.”
The maximum speed of Figure-2 is 1,500 kilometers per second, and it can fly 5.4 million kilometers per hour. If this speed is maintained, there will indeed only be 20 minutes left to fly to Ceres.
Before Chu Di could speak, Tao Bao objected: "We can't hide yet. According to my calculations, we are still flying in the mutated gravitational field. Once the speed decreases, something may happen. Let's drive ten minutes ahead."
Long Yujing said: "Then what if we encounter an enemy's spacecraft on this journey? Or if it is detected by the enemy, wouldn't it be very troublesome?"
Tao Bao said decisively: "No, as long as it is within the range of the asteroid belt's mutated gravitational field, enemy ships will not be able to pass, and any radar equipment will fail within this range. As long as we do not hit other celestial bodies, we can
."
The mutated gravitational field is like a minefield placed by the rebels in front of the solar system coalition forces. Naturally, there will be no defenses in the minefield, because whoever enters will die. Unexpectedly, it has become a smooth road for Chu and Di.
At this time, Tao Bao has calculated that in the entire asteroid belt, only the gravitational field and magnetic field around Ceres are normal. The normal "surrounding" of this gravitational field is not a circle, but an ellipse.
One of the focal points of this ellipse is Ceres. The radius toward Mars is only 50,000 kilometers, but the radius toward Jupiter is very long, 5 million kilometers.
Figure 2 is from the side of the ellipse. There is a safe focal radius between it and Ceres. This focal radius is 700,000 kilometers.
After listening to Tao Bao's explanation, Long Yujing couldn't help but complain: "What is the safe focal radius? It won't be safe if we go in."
Tao Baohan said: "That's right, the safety I'm talking about is for the aircraft."
Entering the safe focal radius is equivalent to entering the rebels' sight. Thirteen minutes later, Tao Bao reminded Chu Di: "There is still one minute!"
Chu Di understood and said: "Then let's find an airport to land."
Long Yujing and Tao Bao were both surprised. Where did the airport come from in the universe? Unexpectedly, they saw a flat "runway" in front of them.
Chu Di had already chosen such a plate-shaped celestial body. Although most celestial bodies in the universe are spherical due to gravity and revolution and rotation, there are not without exceptions.
There is such an exception in the asteroid belt. What Chu Di found was a comet made of solid ice, about the size of an airport.
The Tu-2 stopped on top of the comet and became part of the comet. The three of them did not leave the cabin. Tao Bao and Chu Di needed to use oxygen masks when leaving the cabin.
Tao Bao asked: "What should we do next?"
Chu Di said: "If we fly further, we may be discovered by them. We must try to find another way to move forward."
Long Yujing said: "The distance of 700,000 kilometers is a bit far. If I take you two to fly, let alone not be able to fly, even if I can fly to the place, my skills will be exhausted."
Chu Di said: "Even if we can fly, we can't let you fly. You are not a passenger transporter. Let's grab their ships."
Long Yujing wondered: "This is not an entrance or exit. How could their ships fly this way?"
Chu Di said: "Of course we won't fly this way, but we can fly to their ship."
Long Yujing and Tao Bao asked at the same time: "Where is their ship?"
Chu Di sighed and said: "I can see the logo on their mothership, but can I still not see their transport ship? The nearest mining ship to us is currently about 200,000 kilometers away from here. Let's take a shortcut.
If you fly over, the distance can be shortened."
Chu Di's judgment of the distance was based on the distance to Ceres of 700,000 kilometers. The distance between the spacecraft and the comet was close to one-third of 700,000 kilometers.
"Mining ship? Okay!" Tao Bao became happy and said: "The mining ships on the aircraft carrier are all unmanned. As long as we can get in, I am sure that we will not be noticed by the enemy!"
Long Yujing also became happy and said: "What a great idea! Let's do it this way. You two put on your oxygen masks."
The next moment, the three people flew away from the comet, like meteors that occasionally streaked through the asteroid belt, and slowly flew towards the mining ship.
Although Long Yujing's flying speed is breathtaking on earth, in this vast sea of stars, compared with the Tu-2 they just rode on, it is slower than a snail. "Slow" is the most appropriate word to describe it.
but.
…
Just like space real-time strategy games, no matter what the nature of the fleet, as long as the scale reaches the level of an aircraft carrier, whether it is cruising in space or lingering, it needs to collect minerals at all times to replenish energy consumption. Star Pirates
Aircraft carriers are no exception, so mining ships must be sent out to mine at all times.
Usually the cruising radius of a mining ship is not large, and 300,000 kilometers is the limit. If there are no required mineral deposits or even celestial bodies within 300,000 kilometers, then the mothership will need to "move".
There are many asteroids in the asteroid belt and the mineral resources are also extremely rich.
Just like the gold asteroid, a planet with a diameter of 224 kilometers is almost entirely made of gold, with only a small amount of associated minerals. There are also many asteroids with other minerals in the asteroid belt, such as diamonds.
Asteroids, crystal asteroids, etc.
Scientific research shows that all the asteroids in the asteroid belt could have formed a planet like the Earth, but they were messed up by Jupiter's gravity and could never come together. If they did, then these mineral asteroids would be the new planets after the aggregation.
of mineral veins.
At a speed of 10 kilometers per second, Long Yujing flew for more than three hours before arriving at an asteroid designated by Chu Di. At this time, she also saw that the mining ship was heading towards the asteroid.
It flew over, the distance was less than 1,000 kilometers, and the speed was about the same as hers.
