It's too late to marry a cat [Interstellar]

The revolving corridor winds down, the hemispherical energy cover supports the artificial dome, the sea is above the sky, and the secret of a silent ethnic group is buried underground.

The residents of Xiaohuangxing once engraved their lives on the stone wall, leaving evidence of race migration in the last settlement, as if they still had hope, thinking that after thousands of years, someone would find this swallowed star. The planet will go down to the empty shell of the submarine complex to explore the traces of their existence.

But at the same time, while they were looking forward to being discovered and the star to be seen again, they also seemed to have deep worries, something they wanted to record but did not want future generations to easily detect.

Out of keen awareness of important clues, after the survey team reported the latest discovery, Yahuiquan and Wo Xiu immediately issued a joint order to the entire diving operation team, ordering all participants to keep silent, and the follow-up survey operations and analysis and research were all kept confidential. In progress, the task level is raised from B to A-, and the information management level is raised from B+ to S.

The murals in the revolving corridor were re-scanned and collected. This time, the special substances on the stone wall were surveyed, and the model was efficiently reproduced according to the new parameters. Using the stereoscopic projection technology, we tried to eliminate all the attachments on the stone wall and partially eliminate them. And after eliminating substances in order of retention time, the research and analysis team quickly made new progress.

This time, an even more astonishing discovery was made.

If you only look at the most original mural, remove all seaweed barnacles and other additions, and clean up the scale and ooze accumulated on it, it is indeed the same as the current public version. , the residents had to retreat step by step, first from the ground to the underground, and then from the underground to the seabed.

The murals are ancient and abstract. The color of the paint on them has faded over time, but it can be seen from the remaining part of the paint. The mural carvers have carefully drawn the residents who carried their belongings when they migrated and transported them on old-fashioned vehicles. The scene of packed material boxes.

That's the part of the mural that was initially heavily colored.

These boxes run through the whole mural, and they seem to have visited the planet together with the residents of Xiaohuangxing. In the first picture of the mural, the residents of Xiaohuangxing are still collectively on the oval aircraft, watching the small island outside the circular window. When it was a small planet, the supply boxes were stacked at the feet of the residents.

They are treasures brought by the aborigines from outside, and the space and position they occupy in the murals show how much they are cherished by the residents.

However, these material boxes later became the "hardest-hit areas" that were heavily painted.

The researcher put forward a prediction that is very close to Yahuiquan and Woxiu's original hypothesis, that is, under the circumstances of great environmental changes, the retreating residents have been forced to evacuate with this batch of "babies", and the aborigines of Xiaohuangxing may be forced to evacuate. "Baby" is regarded as a sharp weapon that can resist disasters, and it is believed that it can help the race overcome difficulties and allow the ethnic group to continue smoothly, but gradually, the entire ethnic group inevitably declines, and hiding in the sea does not help. People re-examine them The items they carried, and finally discovered a terrible fact-the treasures they carried along the way seemed to be the root of the disaster. The boxes that had accompanied them to settle down contained drugs that would drag the entire race to the abyss.

"After testing, the appearance time of the special substance is roughly close to the estimated time when the last survivor of Xiaohuangxing left the seabed and returned to the shore. It is very likely that the survivor painted it on the wall by himself, and the other party looked at the 'treasure box' It was gradually covered by groups of arthropods, and the most colorful things in the whole group of murals were all blocked before turning around and leaving."

The last of the Remnants left the greatest secret of the Clan's annihilation at the bottom of the ocean.

He may not want future visitors to know that the disappearance of his family is mixed with "self-inflicted blame", or he may simply feel that this should be smeared, which makes the efforts of the entire group as ironic as a bad comedy.

And what that person thought at that time, the truth is only known to him, and future generations will not know.

Facing the reorganized materials and looking at the newly repaired model, people in the later generations are still trying to decipher more information from the murals, trying to figure out what the "treasure" contained in the material box is.

There is no need for Ya Huiquan and Wo Xiu to point it out. Someone in the research team has already proposed the direction of the "experiment".

And not long after, the research team found more clues and evidence by reviewing the murals for the third time.

Not only are the barnacles crawling over the material boxes, but in each of the murals that show the migration of ethnic groups with specific characters, they are also attached to the crowd in the murals, and this is like an omen. The entire mural corridor consists of Down to the bottom, the aborigines of Xiaohuangxing are getting smaller and smaller, but more and more people are clinging to barnacles.

"We have every reason to speculate that the barnacles were deliberately attracted to the 'people' and the 'supply boxes', which is also the last hint left to us by the aborigines of Xiaohuangxing. There is a certain relationship between the two." Research team leader Tie Li Clearly stated, "In combination with factors such as human beings, decay, and the treasures that the race entrusts to continue hope, and at the same time, considering that before entering the star calendar, during the nautical era, the overall renewal speed of species in the universe was extremely fast, and the original species or evolution Or perish, the era of the birth of new species - the aborigines of Xiaohuangxing should be people who have undergone genetic changes. Due to the similar direction of mutation, they gather together, and the treasures they carry with them are very likely to be the original data of the experiment, residents Important information such as changes in dynamic signs."

"After they settled in Xiaohuangxing, in order to solve the unstable state after the genetic mutation and to allow all residents to obtain a better living environment, they took measures to try to continue to adjust the residents' bodies after they had a stable residence, but the results were not satisfactory. .”

Unsatisfactory.

An ethnic group that appeared due to the replacement of species in the Age of Discovery. They originated from genetic modification and were also destroyed by genetic modification.

"It makes sense." Ya Huiquan said after listening to the report of the research team.

He was only silent for a moment for this new version of the story, and cast a glance at Wo Xiu who seemed to have a calm face, and then he glanced at the questioning faces of the members of the research team.

"General Ya." The research team leader asked, "Do you have any other discoveries here?"

Otherwise, why "make sense"?

Of course, General Ya has it here, but it still lacks a little verification.

Before coming down, he and Wo Xiu guessed that the third "unnamed" detained was probably a member of the Apostle Legion.

The Apostle Legion has cooperated with the Star Alliance, who has been working behind the scenes. If there is a test bench in this ruin, then, based on the fact that the Apostle Legion was found to be conducting human body enhancement experiments last time when the trump team was intercepted in the outer domain of the core of the natural disaster. Look, this time, the first member of the Apostle Army sneaked into the ruins development team, probably borrowing the convenience of the people behind the scenes, and the target was the "last remnant laboratory of the aboriginals of Xiaohuangxing" deduced by the research team.

——that is, the place at the bottom of the revolving corridor.

The people in the custody room were re-interrogated. Three to ten minutes before the interrogation started, Wo Xiu passed the corridor, and General Ya, who was waiting for his cat, got stuck in a dead corner of the surveillance and entered the small conference room beside him.

Wo Xiu was taken aback. He was walking on the road, and he was completely defenseless when the breath of Yahuiquan approached. The first thing he did after entering the meeting room was to hold the door: "Honey, three ten minutes is not enough. Think of a new script, this time is too insulting to you and me."

"It's a beautiful idea." Yahuiquan said, "Has your mind been hijacked by the Sanya Library, and you can only think of this when you are alone in a room with me?"

"This shows that you are always charming here, and I can easily be misled by the attraction of wanting to combine two people into one." Wo Xiu dealt with General Ya's sarcasm easily, with a smile in his voice, and the corners of his mouth curled up nicely. Yang Zhe, at first glance, looks like a casual little bastard just like usual.

However, Ya Huiquan raised his hand suddenly, he took off a glove, and pressed Wo Xiu's lips with his slightly warm fingertips.

"If you can't laugh, don't laugh." He said, "If you close the door and show your wit to anyone."

In fact, what General Ya wanted to say next was "Do you still need me?", but he was not familiar with the business, and it was a bit difficult to say, so in the end, he was short-changed and changed to simply: "Do you need me? "

Wo Xiu understood the meaning behind the words, and slowly lowered the corners of his mouth that were habitually hooked, then lowered his head, took Yahuiquan's hand, and kissed the back of his hand lightly.
