When Jenny walked into Margo's room, both the grandfather and grandson had quieted down, Marg's spirits were a little sluggish, and Lird's expression was very heavy.

Marge's eyes opened as soon as Jenny stepped in, and when she saw Jenny, her face suddenly showed loving news.

"My elf, you've come to see me. ”

Jenny sat down at Marg's bed, and said in a stiff Polish, "How are you?"

Marge laughed, "As long as I see you, everything will be fine." Jenny smiled: "Then I will always be by your side and always help you expel the disease." ”

Marge smiled even more, and she held Jenny's palm and said, "Of course it's good, but if you always accompany me, an old woman, what will you do if it affects our elf to find a boyfriend in the future?"

Jenny smiled and said, "As long as I can be by your side, I don't care about that." ”

When Marg heard this, she turned her head to Lird and said, "Listen, even Jenny knows that she is so considerate, unlike when you are free, you always want to run outside. ”

Lird smiled bitterly and said, "Grandmother, I have been staying by your side honestly for the past few years, and I haven't done anything." ”

Marg shook her head and said, "If it weren't for the war outside, you would be so honest?" Hmph, I know you, you are exactly the same as your father in your bones. ”

Speaking of his father, Lird frowned slightly, and then said: "In the past two days, I will contact my father and ask him to take the time to come back and see you." ”

A slight change flashed on Grandmother's face, and then she shook her head and said, "Forget it, my illness is fine, and it will be all fine in a few days, so I can't disturb him, if he is busy, let him be busy." Lird wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

Grandmother Marg looked at the beautifully carved ceiling and said, "Old, old." Even living in such a good environment, I still feel that my body is not getting worse day by day..."Lird and Jenny looked at Grandmother Margo silently, not knowing for a moment how to comfort the old man.

After some sighing, Grandmother Marg said to Jenny, "If one day I am gone, I hope that my elf will help me take care of this uneasy grandson, at least not as if he did anything impulsive." ”

When Jenny heard this, she hurriedly said, "Grandmother, there will never be a day when that day will come. ”

Marge chuckled and shook her head, "That day will come." Jenny was stunned when she heard this, looking at the old man's eyes with dark expectation, and finally Jenny nodded and said softly, "I promise you." Seeing this, Marge's face immediately showed a smile of relief.

The three of them spent a short time together, and Grandmother Marg didn't seem to be in a good state, and she fell asleep after a while, and under the gesture of Jenny's eyes, Lird quietly left the room with her.

After walking out of the room, the two young people did not look good, although their life experience was not rich, but out of instinct they still felt that things were not going well.

After a while, Jenny was the first to react, and then showed a cheerful smile and said: "Don't show that bitter melon face, Grandmother Marge is fine, it's just that she needs some time to recuperate when she gets older, you don't have to worry at all, the maid will take care of her old man all day for the past two days." ”

Lird nodded lightly and said, "Thank you." ”

Jenny patted Lird on the shoulder and said, "That's too much to say, after all, you're also a member of this family." ”

Lird looked at Jenny, looking at the face that was blooming with a pure smile, and the stiffness in his heart melted.

Jenny then said, "Okay, don't think about it anymore, let's go to the restaurant now, otherwise the food will be cold." Leard followed Jenny to the dining room, but his mind kept recalling what his grandmother had said to him before that.

"Liard, no matter when, no matter where you are, don't forget who you really are..."

...

The loud sound of the alarm woke Lird again, and he quickly got up to his feet without time to lay idle.

In the past few days, Liard's mood has been better, his grandmother's condition has begun to stabilize, his physical condition has become better day by day, yesterday he was able to walk in the company of others, and his appetite has become much better, which has made Liard's nervous mood finally improve, and he is optimistic that everything will return to normal soon.

After washing up, Lird walked to the dining room as usual, and as he entered the dining room, he quickly saw a familiar figure, it was his grandmother.

Seeing this scene, Hugo could not help but be overjoyed, and immediately walked a few steps to his side, and was about to say something, when he suddenly felt that the atmosphere at the table was very solemn, both his grandmother and his wife Wyatt's expressions were extremely solemn, everyone's face was full of iron blue, and their eyes were full of complicated fear and anger.

Seeing this, Lird was immediately stunned, and then a trace of nervousness arose in his heart: "Did something happen..."

Mr. Wyatt waved his hand to Lird and motioned for him to sit down first, and Lird noticed that Mr. Wyatt's hand was constantly shaking, which showed that he could not contain the emotion in his heart.

After Lird sat down, he again said to Wyatt, "Sir, what happened?

Wyatt took a sip of the coffee in front of him, as if controlling his mood, and waited for it to stabilize a little before he slowly spoke: "Something has happened, and it is an extremely bad thing, I hope you can be prepared before I say it." ”

Learde nodded earnestly when he heard this.

Wyatt paused and said: "Not long ago, the Japanese launched a sneak attack on the Pearl Harbor Naval Base in Hawaii, and the American Navy suffered heavy losses. ”

"What, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor?" said Liard, taken aback.

Wyatt nodded and said, "That's right, the news is absolutely accurate, no one dares to make up this kind of thing out of thin air." ”

When Lird heard this, he felt that his brain was blank, and he couldn't accept the reality in front of him for a moment.

"How's it going?" finally Lird asked Wyatt.

Wyatt shook his head and said: "I don't know the specific situation of the matter yet, only part of the news was mentioned on the radio, and the specific content has not been fully revealed, but I can feel that this matter is very bad." ”

Lird felt his body tremble and fear wrap him up again, and soon he remembered the fear he had felt when the Germans invaded Poland two years earlier.

After a while, Lird said: "Since the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, do they want to land in the United States to fight?"

Mr. Wyatt was silent for a moment and then shook his head and said: "Probably not, all the Japanese attacks this time are air force units, the navy has not attacked the United States, and as for the army side, there is nowhere to talk about it now, as far as I know, most of the Japanese troops have been invested in the Chinese battlefield, and it is not so easy to draw troops." ”

Mr. Wyatt's words reassured Leard, but he still couldn't calm his mind after a long breath. Then he said to Mr. Wyatt, "So what does the government say?"

Wyatt said: "The White House hasn't made any statements yet, but even if it doesn't say that everyone can almost guess a rough idea... This war is also inevitable for the United States. ”

Mrs. Wyatt said, "You mean the United States is going to war?"

Wyatt nodded helplessly and said, "I'm afraid that's exactly what it looks like." ”

"My God. Mrs. Wyatt covered her mouth in a lost voice.

Everyone present fell silent, and Grandmother Marge remained silent without saying a word.

...

"Pearl Harbor" spread like a lightning-spread plague across the American continent, and when Lird and Jenny arrived at the school, they found that everyone had a look of fear or anger or excitement on their faces, and it was clear that "Pearl Harbor was involved" in the hearts of everyone living on this continent.

After a chaotic end of the morning's lessons, Lird arrived at the laboratory alone, not surprisingly Gerald was among them, and after a brief greeting between the two men, they fell into silent silence, apparently the "Pearl Harbor" incident had also affected them. The only sound in the quiet laboratory was Gerald's chewing.

After some time, Lird was the first to speak: "I remember before you mentioned a weapon that could stop this war. ”

Gerald nodded and said, "Why did you become interested in this thing at this time?"

Lird shook his head, then nodded again.

Gerald swallowed the food in his mouth, put the remnants of his hand on the table, and said, "It's useless if you want to understand that thing, it's too late to relearn physics with your foundation." ”

Lird smiled bitterly, "How do I remember the last time you suggested that I learn some physics?"

Gerald shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's different. The physics required to make such a nuclear weapon would require a deep level of physics, and countless explorations and experiments would be required, and if you were not careful, the enemy would be wiped out before it could be destroyed. ”

"So dangerous?"

"What do you think!" Gerard scratched the back of his head and continued, "Otherwise, what kind of technology do you think this is?" This kind of thing can never be done by a school, it needs a strong state apparatus to maintain its operation behind the scenes, and it consumes a lot of manpower, material resources and money. A bunch of nerds can do nothing but look to the future impassionedly, not even the coded language used by the German army can be cracked. ”

Lird was not interested in Gerald's complaints and ridicule, and hurriedly asked, "So how long will it take for this powerful weapon to be developed even with the support of the state?"

Gerard shrugged his shoulders and said: "This is only to ask God, I heard that Germany had planned to start experimental research before starting this war, but there was no result of bullying, otherwise Moscow would have ceased to exist a long time ago." ”

Lird let out a long sigh when he heard this, as if the spark of hope in his heart had been extinguished.

Seeing this, Gerald comforted: "You don't have to worry about this kind of thing, there are naturally people besides you who will think about these things, this kind of thing is definitely not something that we ordinary students can accomplish, whether the United States declares war on Japan or not, we just need to do our own work." ”

Learder shook his head and said: "I just feel that this world is too crazy, you also know that I am not an American, the reason why I came to the United States is to escape the war, but now the war is also burning to this land, which makes me feel very... It's helpless. ”

Gerard said: "The helpless things are all things that we can't control, the initiator of this war is not us, the terminator will not be us." If we have to talk about our relationship with war... We are all just victims of war. ”

Liard nodded sympathetically.

Gerald suddenly laughed at this point, and Lird looked at him with some puzzlement. Gerard smiled: "Your dream is to be a seafaring adventurer, originally you were to challenge the unknown world, but now you can't go on at all, every corner of this world is fighting, as long as you take a careless step, you may be hit by a bullet, this is not the end of the challenge you deserve." ”

Lird smiled bitterly: "From this point of view, I am very unlucky. ”

Gerard said: "You are not the only one who is unfortunate, everyone is in trouble, whether it is navigation or physics, it can be used as the science of war slaughter, if everything goes on here, I think that in a few years all the experts and scholars will have blood on their hands." ”

Hearing this, Lird smiled bitterly again, and then said: "No matter what, I don't want what I have learned in my life to be used for destruction, my knowledge is for the benefit of mankind. ”

Gerald shrugged his shoulders and said, "Unfortunately, not everyone in this world has the same mental qualities as you. ”

Lird also shook his head helplessly, and then said: "Is there really nothing that can solve the war except violent means..."

Gerard had just picked up the food on the table again, and when he heard Lird say this, he immediately said, "I really thought about it, if you could open up a whole new space for all peace-loving people to enter, and leave the world to those crazy marauders, everything would be clear." ”

Lird laughed: "You physicist is also talking crazy, don't you want everyone to go into outer space? ”

Gerard said: "To open up a new space, you don't necessarily need to go to outer space or discover a new continent, you just need to have a 'key' to open the 'door'. ”
