Chapter Forty-Four: Riding a Tiger Is Difficult

Nicole was silent, and Rena and Xin Xin didn't know what to say. What is the purpose of scientific research, they really haven't thought much about it, or simply haven't considered it at all. If scientific research is only to achieve the logical self-consistency of a certain theory, but cannot be effectively transformed into practical utility, is it not putting the cart before the horse?

Scientific research projects, if not based on existing realities and only considering that they might be useful in the future, can certainly be carried out. However, research that is too detached from reality and has no time to go in terms of the current situation of the earth and the current situation of mankind, but it has consumed a lot of manpower and material resources and wasted precious resources, should we stop?

are all human beings, calm down, regardless of personal gains and losses, Nicole, Rena, and Xin Xin all admit in their hearts that there is no doubt that Xu Yunzhi's decision-making is correct. So, is there any justification for their actions? Of course not!

However, they have come too far and do not want to look back. In all fairness, they can't help but realize that Liang Jingjing's project is what is needed at this stage and is very useful for changing the status quo, but they deliberately sabotaged it, how can they turn back? It's obviously wrong, and you still raise troops to rebel, how can you turn back?

"We are all engaged in scientific research, and we all have a belief in our hearts, that is, science!" Xu Yunzhi saw that the three of them were silent, stood up and paced a few steps, and said: "We used to think that all problems in life can have a scientific explanation, and we struggled for this, but what about the result? When we look at the paths that many people have chosen, it seems that they have become a means of making a living, and we realize that there has never been an answer. We just live, with the instinct to survive, and we just live! ”

As she spoke, she paused to look at Nicole, Rena, and Xin Xin, and said word by word, "Who would really be so obsessed with studying some major problem?" Who cares about distant theoretical questions that we don't see an answer to in our lifetimes? Many people choose to study these in order to gain a place in the guaranteed scientific research system, enjoy fame and high salaries, and that's it! ”

"You're so noble?" Xin Xin looked at Xu Yunzhi and smiled: "You are doing scientific research for all mankind?" ”

"I'm not noble!" Xu Yunzhi said: "In the field of astronomy where I am located, there are many so-called experts in history who are committed to finding planets in the universe that are suitable for life to survive, and they can always find such planets. The purpose can only make people suspect that it is for project funding, in order to maintain their high status and good remuneration. As for me, I'm not noble, but try to remind myself not to be so vulgar! ……”

"No more nonsense, Professor Xu!" Rena suddenly interrupted Xu Yunzhi's words: "You say, now that we have put forward our plan, it's up to you!" ”

"As I said, we are a committee system, and we need the consent of the majority of the members!" Xu Yunzhi smiled slightly and said, "I need to consult with Zhang Jingyi, Tang Liqing and others before I can have an answer!" …… Let me contact them? ”

Nicole, Rena, and Xin Xin looked at each other and hesitated.

"Look!" Xu Yunzhi smiled: "On the one hand, you want us to say our plan, and on the other hand, you prevent us from discussing and negotiating, this is your sincerity?" ”

"Let's think about it again," said Nicole, "Professor Xu is not impatient. ”

"Okay, you discuss slowly, and give me an answer after you have discussed......" Xu Yunzhi said. She saw Nicole and the others standing up to leave, and asked again, "Ask something, where is Vice Dean Liang Jingjing?" ”

"She's gone!" Rena replied.

"Out of the dungeon?"

"No, according to our people, she didn't leave the dungeon, but she's gone!"

Xu Yunzhi didn't speak, she looked at Rena and knew that she wasn't lying, so she didn't ask anymore.

"You really didn't find Liang Jingjing?" After walking outside, Nicole asked Rena. She was worried that Rena and the others would kill Liang Jingjing, but they said that they couldn't find it.

"I don't have to lie to you, Professor Nicole!" Rena said, "If you don't believe me, ask Susan." ”

"I believe you," said Nicole, "but since she is not out of the city, how can she not find it?" ”

"I don't know," said Rena, "the dungeon is so big, it's easy for her to hide." We don't have enough people to carry out a large-scale search operation. ”

"You must try to find her!" Nicole said.

"Why bother," Xin Xin said, "she is hiding, the dungeon's external communication has been cut off by us, presumably she can't contact the outside world, so let her go." We've strictly controlled the dungeon's food supply system, and if she can't find something to eat, she'll run out! ”

"Didn't we take control of the command center, where there is a city-wide thermal imaging surveillance system, and we still can't find her?"

"We've been watching, but we haven't found out," said Rena, "Wait, the wolves in the forest are hungry and will run out, and you're afraid that she won't be able to escape?" ”

"That's fine, but you can't let your eyes down!" Nicole said, "And Elizabeth and Ouyang Xiaoyue, how are they now?" ”

"They refused to disarm, but they didn't attack either."

Nicole nodded, she knew that Elizabeth and Ouyang Xiaoyue controlled the most elite special combat team of the earthlings, and these hundreds of people were all experienced in a hundred battles. If they want to attack, they can't stop it. Now that they are not attacking, it shows that they are quite restrained. But restraint must have a time limit, and if they don't attack now, it doesn't mean they won't attack in the future. If this force cannot be pulled over, then it should be disintegrated as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be serious.

"Are those kids alright?"

"Good!" "We've protected those children and won't let them get hurt," Rena said. ”

Nicole and Rena, of course, understand the importance of these children. What's more, with these children here, Elizabeth and the others are jealous, and with this, these children must also be protected.

"Okay!" Nicole said: "What we have to do now is to trap Elizabeth and Ouyang Xiaoyue!" ”

As soon as Nicole said this, Rena and Xin Xin were stunned. They looked at Nicole and wondered if Nicole had taken the wrong medicine, and wanted to trap these two killing gods who were almost female demons. In order to appease them, Rena blocked them and pressed them to the north of the city, but she regularly provided them with food so that they would not attack when they were hungry.

"What's wrong?" Nicole looked at Rena and then at Xin Xin: "Since you have done it, you don't think about the next move, you just do it like this, can it be done?" …… It is not enough to have only one Xu Yunzhi in our hands now, Elizabeth and Ouyang Xiaoyue are also their core members, and the special combat team they control is now in the city, and it is even more of a big problem. Capture them, dismantle or integrate their ranks, and keep us safe! ”

Rena looked at Nicole and couldn't help but admire. She could see that Nicole's mental state had adjusted and that she had made up her mind to do it.

"How to trap the law, please Professor Nicole instructed!" Rena said.

"Let's talk about it together!" Nicole said, "Make a trap plan. ”

A small conference room in the north of the dungeon city has become the command center of the special combat team.

Elizabeth was annoyed.

At the time of the incident, she was training with her team in the north of the city, and when the news came, their road to the center of the city had been blocked. She wanted to rush over with the team, but was dissuaded by Ouyang Xiaoyue. After calming down, she also accepted Ouyang Xiaoyue's persuasion, how could she make a big move in her own city?

She and her special combat team are like tigers biting hedgehogs, and they have no way to put their mouths out.

Now, three full days have passed since the day of the incident, and she is at a loss. Since the armed attack was abandoned at that time, it is even more impossible to rashly use force at this time. But if you don't use force, you can only wait and panic.

She knew that Xu Yunzhi had fallen into the hands of the rebels, and she couldn't contact Zhang Jingyi, Tang Liqing, and Xiang Zidan outside the city, so she didn't know what to do.

"I said Ouyang, let's do it!" She was undecided, and her heart was really angry. Of course, she knows that if she attacks, the odds are very high, but the result is likely to be a chicken feather: "This consumption will definitely not work!" ”

"Sister, be patient," Ouyang Xiaoyue said, "If we attack, Professor Xu will be in danger." And those children, who are likely to be used as shields. In the end, of course, we can destroy them, but the people who accompany the funeral are gone! We can't do that! ”

"I'm!" Ouyang Xiaoyue sat down heavily.

"Wait patiently, sister!" Ouyang Xiaoyue said: "You see that they bring us food every day, I guess they don't dare to risk the world and kill Professor Xu and those children." As soon as we do it, they will put the blame on us, and we can't afford to be fooled by this. ”

"Alas!" Elizabeth said with a bitter face: "I can't fight and fight, I can't walk and go, I've never encountered such a thing!" ”

"I'm sure they'll come back to us!"

Ouyang Xiaoyue guessed correctly, and not long after, a member of the team came in to report that Nicole and the others had sent someone.

"Let her in!"

It was Susan who came in, unarmed and holding a small white flag in her hand. As soon as she saw Elizabeth and Ouyang Xiaoyue, she bowed: "Hello two captains!" ”

"You still want us to surrender our guns?" Elizabeth sneered.

"No, no, no!" Susan smiled: "It's not us, it's Professor Xu who wants to see you!" So I was sent to ask the two captains to take a trip. ”

"Professor Xu wants to see us?"

"Yes!"

"You go out first and wait outside!" Ouyang Xiaoyue said. After Susan went out, Ouyang Xiaoyue pondered and said, "Is it possible?" ……”

"You don't think it's credible?" Elizabeth said, "Then we won't go!" ”

"It doesn't seem appropriate not to go," Ouyang Xiaoyue said, "What if Professor Xu really wants to see us?" ”

"It's not right to go, it's not right not to go, so what do you think?"
