Chapter 106: Being a human always requires some faith

Jasmine didn't know what the "tower" was, and she wanted to get closer and see what it looked like.

But then, she was discovered by Joel and York.

The two teenagers had already noticed that someone was following them, but when they saw that this person was Jasmine, they were also stunned for a moment.

For this childhood friend, they naturally have no malice, or rather, she is one of the few people they are close to.

So after a period of thinking, the teenagers explained everything to Jasmine.

This base does not belong to them, but is a joint venture between the Central Greenhouse No. 10 and the Central Greenhouse No. 9.

The history of this base dates back to thirty years ago, even before Jasmine's father founded the Ice Plain Tribe.

At that time, there was an astronomer named Aztod in the Central Greenhouse No. 10 who came up with a plan called Operation Evacuation of Humanity.

The content of this plan is actually very simple, which is to send humans to space through interplanetary supplies, to go on a long enough wandering, and finally return to Earth. In this way, we can avoid the ice period of the earth, and at the same time, start a new era that belongs to the future, an era where we can touch the stars.

After that, human beings will no longer be limited to the earth, but will be able to use the earth as the cornerstone, and move towards the depths of the starry sky to the end of the universe.

The greenhouse soon passed Aztod's plan and set up an astronomical station for him to find a suitable path among the stars for human migration.

At the same time, a space vehicle manufacturing project called "Joshua" was launched.

And this base was completed at that time.

In the beginning, there were 78 scientists mobilized from various greenhouses in the center, 200 logistics personnel, hundreds of tons of various resources, and a complete set of energy semi-circulation systems identical to the inside of the greenhouses.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a small greenhouse, and there are countless people watching here, countless people waiting for their research results, and countless people waiting for them to create miracles.

Unfortunately, miracles are called miracles because they are almost impossible to achieve.

Ten years on, apart from the bottomless pit of resource consumption, the base has made little progress in the development of aircraft.

Not even manned spaceflight, let alone interstellar voyages.

The greenhouse gradually lost patience and confidence, and eventually aborted the project and stopped the research at the astronomical observatory on the other side.

The plan appears to have been shelved permanently.

However, perhaps there was still a hint of luck in the greenhouse, and they did not dismantle the base.

Instead, a blockade zone was demarcated and sealed here indefinitely.

At the same time, there is also this one in the base, the last "Joshua······

Joel and York's parents were once engineering scientists in charge of the base.

After they were withdrawn from the greenhouse, they never put down their research on space vehicles.

Until one day, they heard that a small icefield tribe had been formed near the base.

So they made a decision that would affect them for the rest of their lives.

With his childhood Joel and York, he moved to live in this tribe, and at the same time, secretly continued to research and develop Joshua.

All of this Joel and York learned from their parents' notes, after their parents disappeared.

Not surprisingly, they are also ready to continue their parents' work and spend the rest of their lives for the rest of their lives.

Because in their eyes, this last "Joshua" is their younger brother, the child in the hearts of their parents who have not yet had time to be born in this world.

They have the responsibility and obligation to complete it, as two older brothers.

To this end, they began to study the contents of the notes day and night, and little by little according to the plan, they completed Joshua's "life".

There was one thing that Joel and York had always believed, and that was what their parents had said in their notes.

"Joshua" represents unshakable faith and undaunted courage.

It will take them to find their father and mother, in that vast starry sky, in the starry place.

It will be the first manned space vehicle after the disaster.

It will also be a leader, carrying the hope of mankind for the future, flying into the starry sky.

······

Until this year, Joel and York have been going back and forth between the base and the tribe for six years, and the development of "Joshua" has entered its final stages.

If nothing else, in the last month or two, they will conduct their first manned lift-off test.

Of course, it could be the last time.

But Jasmine believed in them that they would succeed, for Jasmine had never seen doubt or timidity in their eyes.

Because Jasmine had seen the stars twinkle in their eyes.

So she never doubted that "Joshua" would fly to the next era.

······

"I've told you everything I know."

In the slightly quiet courtyard, the girl lowered her head and said in a deep voice.

"Yes." Yanagihara came back to his senses in a trance and blinked his eyes.

To be honest, she could never have imagined that these three children were actually doing such a thing.

Even with the resources left over from the greenhouse.

"I'm sorry I pointed a gun at you." Under Jasmine's surprised gaze, Yanagihara slowly put away the revolver in his hand.

"I hope you can believe that I don't mean to hurt anyone." As he spoke, Yanagihara stood up and walked towards the house: "Dinner should be ready, let's eat it together." ”

"Were you just scaring me?" Jasmine subconsciously called out to Yanagihara.

"Of course." Yanagihara turned around helplessly, thought for a moment, took out his pistol again, and pulled the trigger on himself.

"Click." After a soft sound, nothing happened in the small courtyard.

There were no bullets in the gun.

"I'm not mad enough to do anything to a little girl. Also, I'll be living in this tribe during this time, and you can come to me anytime if you need help. ”

"I'll help you." Yanagihara said slowly, a shallow smile on his calm face.

"Because I'm looking forward to, looking forward to your Joshua."

With that, she turned and left.

Jasmine stared blankly at Yanagihara's back, half-loudly, and chuckled for some reason.

This wanderer, perhaps, is a good person.

She thought.
