"Huh? Comets fall ...... 800 km of ...... Distance? ”

The old cat nodded.

Tang Yue also nodded.

Mai Dong slowly retreated, hitting the bulkhead behind her, it was hard to say whether the girl's eyes were shocked or desperate at this moment, her eyes were very dazed and flustered, revealing the horror of a small animal, Mai Dong looked around, but she couldn't see anything clearly, because her eyes couldn't find focus.

When she got up early this morning, Mai Dong was ready to continue her work and improve the landing plan, but Tang Yue and the old cat hit her in the head, and she was stunned.

"What will be the end result?"

Mai Dong asked cautiously, she still had one last glimmer of hope.

"Kunlun Station will be completely destroyed." Tang Yue replied, "The comet will completely erase our location from the map, and no one will survive." ”

"Is there no way?" Mai Dong looked at the old cat.

The old cat shook his head in silence.

"So what do we do?" Mai Dong was very powerless, she knew very well what the consequences of the Tomcat-Tang-Mai comet fell, this was a natural disaster that was enough to divide the geological years, and it was enough to destroy the entire human civilization on the earth.

"Miss Mai Dong, the Kunlun station can't run away, the outcome has been decided, but the Orion II spacecraft still has a chance, in the past time, I have written two sets of flight control programs, which are stored in the spacecraft's computer at the same time, please access the Orion control system now."

Mai Dong opened his laptop and connected to the Orion spacecraft's computer through the wireless network.

Two on/off buttons pop up on the graphical interface, one red and one blue.

"Miss Mai Dong, the red switch is to enter the atmosphere, and the blue switch is to leave the orbit of Mars." The old cat explained to her, "If you press the red button, then the spaceship will enter the landing preparation mode, if you click the blue button, then the spaceship computer will perform the orbit change and detach mission, I don't force you to make any choices, the choice is in your own hands from beginning to end." ”

Mai Dong hugged the laptop, and the choice given by the old cat was obvious and easy to understand, without a whole line of complex code, only two square buttons, the one on the left was red, and the one on the right was blue.

The girl raised her head and looked at Tang Yue, those eyes seemed to say: I am not afraid of death.

Tang Yue shook his head slightly, and replied with the same eyes: I don't want you to die here.

Mai Dong stared at the two buttons on the computer for a long time, two completely different paths and two completely different endings were concretized in the form of buttons at the moment, all in front of Mai Dong, if she pressed the red button, then Orion would enter the Martian atmosphere, but at this moment the Kunlun station was no longer a safe shelter, but a death trap facing destruction.

If she pressed the blue button, the Orion spacecraft would be out of orbit and away from the comet's threat.

Mai Dong didn't think that in case the Kunlun station was really destroyed, she would simply drive the Orion 2 spacecraft down from orbit, and it would be a big deal to die together.

"I choose the red ......"

"Let's go." Tang Yue interrupted her, "Don't die here. ”

"I'm going to die sooner or later."

"But don't die now." Tang Yue said, "You still have plenty of fresh water and food, plenty of electricity and fuel, get out of here, go as far as possible, don't come down...... Don't come down, it's hopeless. ”

"It's more painful to drift alone in the universe."

"Don't worry about being alone, you won't be alone, the old cat will be with you."

"Mr. Cat?" Mai Dong was a little surprised.

"Now there are thirty-seven days before the comet impact, I let the old cat drive the Martian stray dog out of Kunlun Station, run at the highest speed, maybe reach a safe distance before the impact, then the old cat may survive, its survivability is much stronger than ours." Tang Yue explained, "So even if you leave the orbit of Mars, you will not be adrift alone, and there will be an old cat with you in the solar system." ”

"The old cat and the Martian stray dog will take the communication system, use the space station as a relay, if the space station is destroyed, use the synchronous satellite, as long as the Orion spacecraft is still in the solar system, it will definitely be able to contact you, and then chat with you and say cross talk, and the old cat will accompany you to the end."

Mai Dong was a little stunned, Tang Yue thought everything through, let himself leave the low earth orbit, and let the old cat leave Kunlun Station, which was the way to minimize the loss.

If the Orion spacecraft chooses to enter the atmosphere, then the final outcome is that the two of them and one cat die together thirty days later.

At this time, Tang Yue became more rational than anyone else, he and the old cat discussed a lot of plans, in order to ensure the safety of more people as much as possible, the re-entry of the Orion spacecraft into the atmosphere has proven to be a dead end, and Mai Dong's only chance of survival is to leave here.

Both the old cat and Mai Dong have a chance to live.

Only Tang Yue didn't.

He did his best to promote the implementation of the Orion spacecraft plan to get out of Mars in order to save the lives of the old cat and Mai Dong, which was undoubtedly the most reasonable response from the most rational and objective point of view, and avoided the last lone seedling of mankind being killed by the comet.

"There are thirty-seven days left for the comet impact...... What about you? Tang Yue: What are you going to do during this time? Mai Dong muttered.

"Continuing with our unfinished business, after all, there is still a lot of information waiting for me to sort out." Tang Yue smiled, "I want to devote my limited life to unlimited service to the people." ”

"I'll go down and help you." Mai Dong blurted out.

"You can help me if you don't come down." Tang Yue refused.

"If not, wouldn't all the efforts of so long be in vain?"

"These efforts are to keep you safe, and if your life is at stake, then they must be scrapped."

"I don't care about threats!"

"I care." Tang Yue was very calm, "The ultimate purpose of letting you land is to protect you, not to send you to death, in the current situation, there is no point in coming down." ”

"But I want to go down!" Mai Dong's eyes were red, and she almost shouted, "I really want to go down, I really want to see you and Mr. Cat!" ”

She finally got to this point.

There is still one last step left, how can you say stop and stop?

The girl's emotions collapsed.

Seeing Mai Dong's tears, Tang Yue's deliberate calmness was almost destroyed, but he tried to maintain his poker face, he couldn't collapse, and he couldn't let his emotions dictate his judgment, otherwise it was very likely that the two of them would cry across the screen, and then unanimously approve the landing plan while crying.

"Life is very precious, think about the plants you planted, try to live, do your best to preserve the heritage of mankind - you are the most precious heritage of mankind, so you must protect yourself, in addition, we still have so much work to complete, the glorious history of human civilization has not yet been fully displayed, more than 30 days will definitely not be able to do it, and it will depend on you and the old cat to complete it in the future."

Tang Yue stared at Mai Dong, trying his best to make his tone seem relaxed, not like he was parting with life and death, but he knew that this was goodbye, and he would never see each other again in this life, Tang Yue could only give his best wishes for the future to this girl who was about to travel far away.

"Of course, if you don't want to leave Mars, you can also try raising the altitude of your orbit...... Old cat, can raising the orbital altitude avoid the impact of the comet? ”

"Forget it, it's not very safe."

"Okay, let's get out of Mars, no matter what, don't come down." Tang Yue's expression was serious, "Don't press that red button." ”

"You said that...... Wouldn't force me to make any choices. ”

"I'm not forcing you." Tang Yue was stunned, and immediately revealed a lonely look, "I'm just asking you." ”

Mai Dong really wanted to be willful.

No matter what Tang Yue said, she pressed the red button regardless of it.

She's just a young girl, and girls have headstrong powers.

But some kind of damn sense of responsibility restrained her hands and feet, Mai Dong looked behind her, she could see the billions of living beings on the earth, and saw the glorious civilization history of mankind in the past 10,000 years, she felt that her life no longer belonged to herself, but to all mankind, and she had no right to exchange her life for what she wanted.

If only she had been a little more brutal.

If only she had been a little more ferocious.

If only she had been a little more vexatious.

In that case, the moment she opened the laptop, she would directly press the red button, and she would go down no matter if the sky was falling apart and mankind was destroyed.

"Tang Yue, Mr. Cat." The girl's eyes were red, and tears were rolling, "I...... I want to hug you. ”

The old cat smiled.

Tang Yue also smiled.

"We also want to hug you, girl, shamelessly, dreaming, but things in this world are not always as people wish, sometimes we can succeed, sometimes we have to face failure, the god of fate does not always throw a six."

Tang Yue sorted out his emotions and stood up straight.

"Comrade Mai Dong, in the end, the party and the people have entrusted you with a very arduous and very difficult task, and I hope you must complete it."

"What?" Mai Dong asked subconsciously.

"Be hopeful, be strong and optimistic, and live until the last day of your life."
