After staying with Fu Yihan for an afternoon, Chu Yanran boarded Zhang Fengyu's ship and prepared to leave for the mainland.
Before leaving, Chu Yanran repeatedly asked Yihan to protect Ye Xin's body, but Chu Yanran didn't say anything about the exoskeleton Ye Xin was wearing... mainly because she herself knew very well how that exoskeleton would deal with Yihan.
The value of this mysterious organization behind you.
"Be careful on the road. Remember to send me a message when you get to the mainland." Fu Yihan looked like a sister.
Chu Yanran felt warm in her heart: "Well, you should also take care of yourself."
"Well, have fun."
Chu Yanran didn't say anything more. She stepped forward and hugged Fu Yihan before entering the cabin.
More than forty years have not left much frost on Zhang Fengyu's face. This man seemed to be frozen in time. He turned around silently, and when he was about to leave, Fu Yihan took his arm and warned him.
Said: "Try not to tell her about Yilin, okay?"
Zhang Fengyu looked back at Fu Yihan and nodded silently.
The ship sailed away, and the rotors brought up strong winds. The hull slowly left the water, revealing three support-shaped underwater flying wings. Then when the ship reached a certain height, the flying wings on both sides unfolded, and in the blink of an eye the ship turned into a
Just like a seaplane.
But this rotary-wing ultra-high-speed ship named "Silver Falcon" can't really take off. It still relies on flying wings placed in the water to maintain balance and fly at high speed. However, although it can't "fly" high enough, it can't "fly" high enough.
"It's fast enough.
Chu Yanran, who was sitting in the cab, was surprised to find that just one minute had passed and the "Silver Falcon" had accelerated to 594 kilometers per hour, close to Mach 0.5.
What's even more incredible to Chu Yanran is that Chu Yanran in the cabin didn't hear a single bit of wind noise. The entire cabin was astonishingly silent.
After sitting in the cabin for a while, Chu Yanran went to the lounge. As soon as she entered, she saw Zhang Fengyu injecting herself with some kind of reagent.
Seeing this, Chu Yanran hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Are you sick?"
Zhang Fengyu shook his head slightly. After he finished the injection, he put the box away and said, "Are you hungry? Can I make you something to eat?"
Chu Yanran also shook her head, she said: "When I went to the base, I kept thinking that if it is not 2030 now, then you should all be old, but I didn't expect... things are more complicated than I thought... not only
Han's body hasn't changed much...you seem to be the same..."
Zhang Fengyu listened silently. When he looked at Chu Yanran, his eyes were as gentle as before.
Chu Yanran had noticed this a long time ago, but the more familiar she became, the more unfamiliar it felt to Chu Yanran... This tangled emotion was mixed with so many things that she couldn't tell whether the person in front of her was still the same person.
Is that someone she is familiar with?
"You have changed..." Chu Yanran held Zhang Fengyu's hand. The palm was still wide, but the familiar temperature was gone, and now only the coldness remained.
"Tell me, what happened to you?"
After Zhang Fengyu was silent for a while, he withdrew his hand and said softly: "I signed the agreement like Yihan and accepted the transformation. This is just one of the prices."
Chu Yanran looked at Zhang Fengyu, she understood, and then smiled: "Okay... let's not talk about you for now, let's talk about other people."
Zhang Fengyu nodded and said, "Okay, but you have to be mentally prepared."
Chu Yanran smiled, very calmly
Allow.
"Um."
"Who should we start with?"
"Let's start with...my grandfather."
…
As one of the main persons in charge of the Tai Chi project, Chu Hongjun has made huge contributions to the country and even to mankind.
Under the leadership of Chu Hongjun, his fifth research group achieved the first full-power operation of Taichi-3 at around 9:00 on April 11, 2035, and successfully completed the simultaneous collision of multiple groups of particles to be tested.
The scientific value of the synchronous collision of identical particles is inestimable, because once synchronization in a relative sense is achieved, it is possible for humans to truly glimpse the inner mysteries of quantum and confirm a variety of scientific conjectures based on theory.
Chu Hongjun and his team immediately attracted worldwide attention after completing this feat, but the final results of the experiment were not directly announced to the outside world.
Such results quickly led to many conjectures.
Especially after Chu Hongjun fell ill, negative conjectures began to dominate the mainstream public opinion media. Some experts and scholars who opposed the collision experiment even declared that the "end of the world" had arrived.
Faced with this situation, the Chinese side of the National Security Department quickly responded.
"Professor Chu Hongjun is sick due to overwork and has no direct relationship with the collision experiment. At the same time, before further determining the reliability of the experimental results, everyone from all walks of life is asked to stay sensible and treat the collision experiment rationally and not to be used by some people with malicious intentions.
.”
Most people who care about the experimental results are still deeply dissatisfied with this response.
But those dissatisfactions no longer matter to Chu Hongjun.
His body no longer allowed him to pay attention to the world's reactions...
…
The old man on the tombstone was smiling happily. It was the only one of the few photos in which he showed a smile.
When Chu Yanran saw this photo, her eyes immediately turned red... because she remembered that photo... it was a photo of her grandfather and her in front of the school gate when she graduated from college...
But now, the photo is gray, and underneath Chu Hongjun's name is written "Eternal contribution, eternal fame, 1960.8-2036.2".
"Grandpa..." Chu Yanran knelt down in front of the tombstone sadly, unable to hold back her sobs...
Zhang Fengyu looked at the gray sky, took off his coat and put it on Chu Yanran, then knelt down like her and quietly looked at the respectable old man who had passed away many years ago.
…
Chu Hongjun’s cemetery was built on a hillside not far from his hometown. This site was chosen in accordance with Chu Hongjun’s last wish. Because of its remote location, few people know that such a world-class engineer is buried here.
But the flowers in front of the tombstone have never stopped even after the old man passed away for so many years.
After paying homage to Chu Hongjun, Chu Yanran suddenly felt that death was much closer to her...
It's a very strange feeling...one that can only be felt by people who have lost an elder like a parent.
This reminded her of that sentence...
When parents are here, there is still a place to come in life...if parents go...then there is only a way back in life...
…
After returning to Jinan, Chu Yanran set her next stop in Xuzhou. She wanted to visit Princess's former residence.
…
You Gege's contribution to the world may be far less than that of Chu Hongjun, but her influence on the world is not smaller than Chu Hongjun's, and is even more profound.
This is mainly related to Yougege’s fame
It is related to his work "Self-Awakening".
And more specifically... it's because the AOA, which has created several world-shattering disasters with the purpose of "promoting" the world, regards this book by Yougege as their belief.
Although multiple investigations by the National Security Department have fully proven that there is no direct relationship between Yougege and AOA, Yougege's "unintentional" creation has also made the National Security Department begin to be alert to the evolution of ideas other than technological progress.
Yougege was once labeled as an "extremely dangerous" person and was closely monitored.
But... Yougege, who had escaped the impact and survived the "cold winter" for ten years, mysteriously disappeared during a major meeting, and has not been heard from since.
No one knows where Yougege has gone or whether she is still alive...
But in short, no one has seen her again in the past thirty years.
At the same time, disappearing with her also included the heinous and helpless extremist organization AOA.
This extremist organization that had brought great trauma to the world and even once tried to threaten all mankind by creating a "nuclear winter" suddenly appeared and disappeared without any warning.
…
Today, twenty-nine years after Yougege disappeared, her former residence is still in a state of isolation. Looking from the outside, passers-by who don’t know the truth will only think that the place is under construction. But when they see the patrols outside the isolation wall, they
You may realize that there seems to be more than just construction here.
Although Zhang Fengyu's identity is special, and Chu Yanran was You Gege's former partner, the rules are rules, and no one can enter You Gege's residence.
Although she was a little disappointed, Chu Yanran soon felt relieved... The main purpose of her coming here was to find the traces that You Gege might have left, but now it seems that since You Gege disappeared, there must be many people who are eager to
She wants to find her, and if they can't find her, Chu Yanran doesn't feel like she's special.
So Chu Yanran shifted her focus from You Gege to several people related to You Gege.
These people include Wang Yi, Liu Panyang, Liu Panyang's sister Liu Yaning, Liu Panyang's daughter Liu Yinrou and You Gege's student Yan Haowen.
But after getting to know Chu Yanran, she learned that the only ones alive now are Wang Yi, Liu Yaning and Liu Yinrou.
Liu Panyang died at work when the blackout broke out, while Yan Haowen died earlier... and it has not yet been found out who killed Yan Haowen.
Chu Yanran didn't have a deep impression of Liu Panyang. She had only met him once before when she attended a seminar in Xuzhou, but Yan Haowen was something Chu Yanran often heard mentioned by You Gege.
Yougege's evaluation of him is that he is humble and friendly, but he dares to speak and think in theoretical discussions, and some of his insights are very original. He is a talent she is very optimistic about.
It was a pity that Yan Haowen was gone before Chu Yanran could meet him.
…
At noon on the 10th, Chu Yanran met Wang Yi with the help of Zhang Fengyu.
Wang Yi and Chu Yanran also have an impression of this, because he was once a thorn in the side of feminists and the most controversial "big celebrity" on the Internet.
But when she saw Wang Yi, who was now seventy-nine years old, again after more than forty years, Chu Yanran felt a very unexpected strangeness.
Wang Yi, who is nearly eighty years old, still looks handsome and has a straight back. He looks like a master who lives in seclusion all year round and pays attention to self-cultivation.
