The Three-Body Problem: The Most Competent Wallfacer of All Time

Chapter 478 Is it alone?
Back to two hours ago, Zhuang Yue finished the first phone call with his father, and then started the return journey from the office to the dormitory.

Leaving the steel building of the headquarters, the sky outside showed a charming moonlight, and occasionally dark clouds drifted past, adding color to the night sky.

But these scenes are all the scenes presented by the stereoscopic imager above the city, and Zhuang Yue is now underground [-] kilometers above the ground.

The airship she was on was driven by a smart computer, which allowed her to enjoy the night view of the city with confidence.

Although this underground city was expanded on the basis of the previous underground city, the tall tree-shaped buildings were demolished, and the rebuilt buildings and environment were more like the style of the AD era.

Those cities that look like giant trees still exist today, but they are all listed as museum cities, and basically no one lives in those cities.

Now the population of the earth has been maintained at about [-] million, and there are plenty of places to build some spacious living rooms.

The buildings are evenly distributed in the streets and alleys, and the shapes are similar, but the colored paints used are different, so that different houses have different styles.

The streets and alleys on the ground are not very wide. After all, people travel by airship now, so there is no need to reserve space for vehicles.

However, the roof of each building has several parking pads for airships to take off and land.

Of course, the most beautiful thing is the greenery in the city. They are dotted in the middle of the buildings. Under the illumination of the lights and against the backdrop of the night, they are full of tranquility and harmony.

Every time Zhuang Yue saw these scenes, all the anxiety accumulated during the day at work disappeared.

The research team under the command of Cheng Ping is currently studying a phenomenon that is highly concerned by the high-level officials of the earth province.

The location of the research team is not far from Zhuang Yue's dormitory. Before returning to the dormitory, Zhuang Yue would go to Cheng Ping's place for a while.

As Zhuang Yue expected, Cheng Ping has not rested yet.

Although his temples are graying, he is full of energy and does not look old at all.

Cheng Ping asked Zhuang Yue to sit down on the sofa in his office: "Would you like tea or coffee?"

Zhuang Yue: "Just have a glass of water. If you drink something refreshing at this time, it will affect your sleep."

Cheng Ping asked while receiving the water: "Mr. Luo should have left the speed of light today, right?"

"Yes." Zhuang Yue took the water and thanked him: "I just talked to him."

Cheng Ping took out his cigarette and lit it: "I've been so busy recently that I forgot to say hello to Teacher Luo."

"You still have to focus on your research, after all, it has been following us." Zhuang Yue asked again: "Any new discoveries?"

Cheng Ping took a deep puff on his cigarette: "Don't tell me, I really made a new discovery today."

Then he said to the smart computer in the room: "Call out the photo just taken today."

The light in the office suddenly dimmed, and a colorful photo was projected onto a wall in the office.

This is what Cheng Ping has been researching recently. Three months ago, a flash of light suddenly appeared in space, which can be vaguely seen as long as it is on the surface of the earth.

After observing with a high-power optical telescope, we saw this colorful scene.

Its color is constantly in motion, much like the fish in the ocean that constantly emits colorful light to intimidate opponents.

I thought it was an observation of a special phenomenon in the distant universe, but when I calculated the distance, I found that this colorful thing is only about [-] astronomical units away from the earth!
On the scale of space, this is very close.

But on all the radars on the earth, no response was found in that direction, and even the most reliable gravitational radar found nothing.

Fortunately, this colorful scene only lasted for more than two hours before disappearing without a trace.

While reporting to the New World galaxy, the Earth Province quickly organized experts to discuss what this phenomenon is?
But after discussing for a long time, there was no result. Just when everyone was glad that this strange scene appeared for no apparent reason, and then disappeared for no apparent reason, and did not have any impact on the earth.

It has appeared again!
Moreover, it is also about [-] astronomical units, and it also disappeared after two hours.

The entire human race immediately paid attention to it, and established research groups on Earth and Qingnvxing respectively.

At first, some people speculated whether this would be a first-season creature. After all, according to the information obtained by humans, the first-season creature would not only have the shape of a planet.

But no matter what frequency band the earth sends to the other party, there is no substantive reply.

The detectors sent out also disappeared without a trace after approaching each other, and did not send back any useful information.

Today's situation on the earth and the moon is already very tense, and factories have begun to desperately produce interstellar accelerators, ready to temporarily abandon the earth and the moon at any time.

At this time, Cheng Ping's research team made another discovery. He pointed to the colorful picture: "Look at that place."

Zhuang Yue noticed that there was a small black dot in the colorful picture: "What is that?"

Cheng Ping asked the smart computer to zoom in, and Zhuang Yue looked at it for a while before saying, "It looks like a frigate!"

Cheng Ping pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray: "That's right, we think so too.

"From there, a spaceship flew out! And it seems to be a human spaceship!"

……

Back to the present, when Luo Ji saw that his daughter didn't believe what he said, he didn't say much.

After all, Zhuang Yue just met Cheng Ping, this is the "iron proof" that Cheng Ping is on Earth!
After finishing the call, Luo Ji stroked his beard and thought, one of the two Cheng Ping must be a fake.

If the Cheng Ping that Zhuang Yue saw just now was real, then who or what was he talking to just now?
What if the Cheng Ping he saw was real?So what is Cheng Ping on the other side of the earth?
And there is also a third possibility: both Cheng Ping are real!
Thinking of this, Luo Ji felt his heart pounding: "The universe is really a paradise for adventure, and even I feel that my old bones are much younger."

Immediately, Luo Ji asked Yinhe No. [-], "Is there a video of the conversation I had with the guest just now?"

Yinhe No. [-] replied: "Yes." Then he started to play the dialogue between Luo Ji and Cheng Ping just now.

Luo Ji nodded: "Okay, please make sure to keep these videos."

Then he took out the storage device Cheng Ping gave him, and followed Cheng Ping's example and shook it in front of the multi-function camera: "Read the information inside."

Yinhe No. [-] said: "Sorry, the device is encrypted, please decrypt it first."

Luo Ji put the storage device back up again: "It really is." Then he went to sleep in the rest cabin.

Luo Ji has seen all kinds of storms and waves in his life?It didn't affect his sleep at all.

And he waited patiently for five days until the earth sent navigation information, and his spaceship would land on the earth.

From the porthole, Luo Ji finally saw a huge black figure in the dark space.

That is the earth, the hometown of mankind, but it is completely different from Luo Ji's impression now.

The entire planet is hiding in the darkness, with no life in sight.

As the spaceship landed, Luo Ji muttered to himself, "Darkness is good, it's safe in the dark."

There are many steel buildings where the earth guides Luo Ji, and the lights on the outside of the buildings illuminate the barren ice sheet on the earth's surface.

Luo Ji said to himself again: "It looks very cold."

Then the steel building opened, the spaceship flew in, and then the ground began to drop rapidly, and the iron wall above it quickly closed, isolating the cold outside.

Luo Ji didn't know how many meters he had descended, but the momentum of the descent began to slow down, and the spaceship came to a brightly lit hall.

Many people outside came to welcome Luo Ji in thick cotton coats.

Luo Ji tidied his clothes carefully, and then opened the door of the spaceship.

He saw that there was already a line of people waiting to shake hands with him at the bottom of the gangway.

So Luo Ji took advantage of the gap between waving and counting. The first one he didn't know, the second was his daughter Zhuang Yue, the third and fourth didn't know each other, and the fifth was Cheng Ping!
"I..." Luo Ji almost swears.
