In court, Duran took out the black box to prove that the five warships at that time had a chain of suspicion in the extreme environment. The survival of the Bronze Age and the Quantum was not due to the kindness of others, but simply their good luck.
If they are slow, they will die.
The reality is very cruel, and the accusations made by humans on Earth against the crew are too pale. Under those circumstances, whatever humans do is normal.
"So the Bronze Age code is just self-defense. Do you have any objections?" Dulan, the lawyer, is really relaxed and just needs to show the evidence.
"I suspect that your evidence is fake. Everything happened outside the solar system. How could you get the black box?" According to the prosecutor's opinion, the black box has been lost in the universe. How could Duran find it?
"Whether the evidence is false, you can check the serial number of the black box, and you will know the authenticity by comparing it." Duran said: "I am here to tell you not to use your ideas to judge the crew in desperate situations. Don't think that you
Once you get the protection of the sword holder, you can rest easy. I can predict here that if you continue to be so naive, you will die in your own hands sooner or later." "That's all, judge, please pronounce the sentence."
Seeing Dulan's arrogant attitude, everyone was really filled with hatred, but Dulan held the sword-wielding button in his hand, and it was a weapon that could be used against rats.
The prosecutor said: "Even if the contents of this black box are true, it will not change their horrific behavior of cannibalism."
It seems that this case cannot be tried. Originally, the public was so excited that a sentence could definitely be imposed. But Duran's appearance made the people rethink the situation at that time. If you put yourself in his shoes, it was really desperate. Everyone accepted the torture of their souls and finally did what they did.
Make a choice.
In that situation, everyone knew that what was about to happen was dark, but they still made a very difficult decision.
If the Bronze Age had been slower, others would be judged now. If there was no chain of suspicion among the five ships, their resources would have been exhausted twenty years ago, and the five ships would have fallen into the arms of death.
It can be said that this trial was originally a denial of the principle of survival.
The trial could not continue, and the court decided to set a date for retrial.
However, the security forces will definitely not let Dulan go. The snipers have already targeted Dulan.
"Dulan, this time you have thrown yourself into a trap. Don't do anything stupid. Put down the button. We can ensure your personal safety."
Duran knew that there were three snipers targeting him from different angles. As long as he made any movement, the other party would definitely shoot immediately, without giving him a chance to press the button.
When Dulan showed up this time, he never thought about leaving. Going to prison felt like going home. Everyone in prison was talented and spoke nicely.
The sword-bearing button was thrown aside, and the soldiers surrounded Duran.
Luo Jie was dumbfounded and didn't know what Dulan meant. He noticed that Dulan looked over and gave him a look that seemed to say that from now on it will be the time for you young people.
Luo Jie doesn't understand at all. How come you, a bad guy, seem to have turned into a hero passing the baton today? That's not the setting. In short, Luo Jie is completely stupid and doesn't know what to do.
Luo Jie now has two choices: either go home and continue to be monitored by the unified government, or return to the Rebel Alliance. In the end, Luo Jie chose to return to the Rebel Alliance. The members of the alliance seemed to have known about Duran's plan, so they were not surprised at all.
"You will be the leader of the alliance from now on," said the Trisolaran Jida.
Luo Jie didn't expect this at all: "But Dulan?"
"He arranged everything. He had already known that you would come back. This means that you have made a choice, doesn't it?"
Yes, Luo Jie made a choice. He admitted that Duran's previous actions were correct. Now humans have been addicted to false peace. This is chronic suicide. So Duran's existence is inevitable. Luo Jie knows
Dulan now leaves everything to him, asking him to complete his mission.
Luo Ji's mission is to provide mankind with an insurance policy. Regardless of whether mankind wants to stray from the plan or not, it must be prepared.
"Do you all listen to me?" Luo Jie asked.
"Of course, the alliance belongs to you now."
"Okay, then we must build enough planetary engines at all costs." Luo Jie strengthened his confidence and must overcome all obstacles, even if it means launching a war, no matter the cost, this is for survival.
On the other side, Dulan was imprisoned and underwent repeated interrogations by the Earthlings and Trisolarans, but Dulan had no information to give them.
"Your vision is too narrow. Even if I tell you, you still won't understand." Dulan said, "Let me tell you a story."
The interrogators looked at each other in confusion. It was as if Dulan was not being imprisoned, but rather they were being imprisoned.
Just listen to Dulan say: "A long time ago, there was a small mountain village. The village was very remote, but there was a school in the village. The four children in the village all attended classes in the school and were taught by only one teacher. That was a
In an era when everyone worshiped money, it was different from the distribution of credit points according to work. At that time, people in the countryside went to work to make money. The only four children left also had restless hearts. They did not need knowledge. What they wanted was
In the material life of big cities, they want to sell their physical strength in exchange for money." "But their teacher doesn't think so. Even though he is terminally ill, he still teaches hard, hoping to instill basic mathematics and physics concepts into his students.
, even with the most brutal means. The four children finally remembered the knowledge that the teacher taught before he died..."
The interrogator said that there was nothing strange about this story, and it didn't look like a fable. It seemed that the story was not over yet.
It is not over yet. Duran took a sip of water and continued: "...At the same time in the deep space of the universe, the ten thousand-year war between carbon-based life forms and silicon-based life forms has just ended. In order to prevent the enemy from resurrecting, the carbon-based life forms decided to create a
A vacuum zone spanning hundreds of light years. This means that all life within these hundreds of light years will disappear. But this civilization has just experienced a war and cannot bear to affect innocent lives again, so they violated the Dark Forest
Theory, it is decided to retain a civilization with a certain degree of civilization. To prove this point is to randomly select samples for testing." "In the end, the four country children were selected. The content of the test was the laws of physics and the final teaching content of their teacher.
"Of course the result is that they passed the test, and the earth was saved. From then on, the people on earth lived a happy life."
The story ends, this is "Rural Teacher" by Liu Cixin.
What do you think this story means? It must be a fable, but what does it mean?
"Do you want to say that you are the teacher, that humans represent the four children, and that the Trisolarans are carbon-based life forms?" asked the Earth Interrogator.
Dulan smiled: "I am indeed a teacher, but Trisolarans are not carbon-based life forms. Trisolarans are just children like Earthlings."
He was truly an extremely arrogant person, and the interrogators didn't even know what to say.
