Chapter 811: Doctor Turing
"Alan, Alan, we need to hide now!" When he heard the sound in the cabin, a young man said nervously to the man who lived with him.
At this time, the man named Allen was sitting on a chair in the cabin, working at the desk, and in front of him, a dozen pieces of papyrus had been densely calculated.
"There is no regularity, there is no regularity, there is no regularity, how is this possible!" The man named Allen was still worried about a large pile of manuscript paper at this time, he had experienced and calculated many times, but he had not found a pattern in it, how could this be possible?
Any kind of cipher is based on the permutations and combinations of various mathematical operations, all of which are traceable, and Alan is fully confident that he can decipher the code, but now, he finds that no matter how he calculates, he can't get the correct result!
Alan Matheson Turing is not yet thirty years old, but he is already a famous British mathematician and logician, and in later generations, he is known as the father of computer science and the father of artificial intelligence.
In 1931 Turing entered King's College, Cambridge University, and after graduation, he went to Princeton University in the United States to study for a doctorate, and after the threat of war in England, he was invited back to Cambridge to assist the military in cracking the German cipher system.
In this era, communication was achieved by telegraph, and the various messages of the telegraph were encrypted by the cipher, and it is said that the Germans invented a machine that directly encrypted.
After Allen returned to Cambridge, he made repeated efforts, but he never understood the rules of the German ciphers, which made him extremely mad.
Then, Britain was about to fall, and the man next to him, an agent of MI5, was responsible for keeping Allen safe, and when he got to a new safe place, he would meet with others and continue to decipher the German code.
And now, all the inside of Alan's suitcase are his calculations, and after getting on the ship, he is engaged in continuing the work, and he is very curious.
Almost two identical telegrams, however, the encoding is irregular, what is going on?
This made Alan struggle with his brain.
Now, the agents around him are reminding him that he is still immersed in his own world.
Could it be that there is a problem with the algorithm you just had? Well, it looks like I'm going to have to recalculate myself!
Alan wanted to put away the scratch paper again, but the agents around him finally got anxious and followed to collect it: "Allen, we don't have time, this ship has been controlled by pirates, let's all go to the dance hall to meet, we can't listen to these pirates, they must be dressed as Germans, now, we have to hide here until it is safe." ”
Without any explanation, the agent put all the manuscript paper into the suitcase, stuffed it into an inconspicuous corner on the side, and then, opened a cabinet at the head of the bed, and inside, there was room for two people.
This room was originally specially made, and only the two old craftsmen who built the ship knew about it, and the other crew members didn't know it.
The two of them hid inside, just enough to fit in, and through a small hole, they could also observe the outside.
Time passed little by little, and then there was the sound of footsteps outside.
Morris took two soldiers and searched the cabins one by one, although the radio had been sent, but there must still be people trying to get away with it! They have to inspect every cabin and leave no one behind!
The hull was still jolting, and for a trained man like them, it was peaceful.
When I opened the hatch, I saw that it was supposed to be an empty cabin.
The two soldiers with their guns in their hands checked every corner one by one, and Morris stood in the doorway, observing, watching them make a skillful gesture, and Morris knew that it was clear.
Just as he was about to exit, Morris saw a piece of paper in the paper basket under the table.
An ordinary piece of waste paper, there was no fuss, however, Morris had a premonition, he walked over, lowered his head, bent over, and picked up the paper.
This ordinary piece of waste paper, densely filled with various formulas, although it doesn't seem to understand, but it seems to be very tall.
There is a problem, of course there is a problem!
"Search carefully!" Morris said.
The task was to search the whereabouts of the British royal family, but there may have been other important people on the ships fleeing from England, and there was a full list of people and profiles in Skorzny.
The rich aristocrats, the plutocrats, the natives who are strong enough to influence a place, the brilliant minds, the scientists, etc., are all their dishes.
Now, Morris seems to feel like he's going to get something out of it.
Sure enough, the ordinary suitcase on the ground quickly caught his attention, and when he opened the suitcase, there were no clothes in it, and it was full of calculation paper!
"Take it and give it to the chief." Morris said.
"Don't!" At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side, this voice was not loud, almost just came out, and disappeared, but Morris still smiled and pointed a gun at a corner of the bed: "Come out, or I'll shoot!" ”
No one could have imagined that there was a mezzanine in this corner, which could accommodate two men!
Allen saw that the other party was going to take away the information he had worked hard for several months, and immediately made a sound, just making a NO sound, and was quickly covered by the agents on the side, but unfortunately it was useless, and it was still discovered!
Not all agents have the level of 007, and using a pistol to fight against the opponent's submachine gun is simply looking for death, and when the opponent's weapons are confiscated, Morris is even more curious about the two.
The one with the weapon was the agent's bodyguard, and this tall man looked like he had a smarter mind.
"I'm sorry, we're going to take refuge in the United States." The agent said: "I brought a gun, also just in case, my brother, he has loved math since he was a child, and these papers, he used them to play with." ”
The agent seemed to be trying to hide something, but Morris compared the man in front of him with the records he had seen in his head.
"Dr. Turing, it's a pleasure to meet you."
There are too many important figures in Britain, and it is impossible for them to remember everyone, but Morris remembers the person in front of him, for no other reason, this person is ranked in the top three among scientists in that booklet! Precisely Morris has a lot of respect for scientists.
