Zhao Lan finally entered the building of the scientific research department again. Zhao Lan's matter is only known to a limited number of people, and most of the staff actually don't know what happened to Zhao Lan. They just heard rumors that Zhao Lan had been arrested, and then the Star Calamity Command Team had a new commander-in-chief. But he didn't expect that in less than a month, Zhao Lan would return again and once again assume the position of commander-in-chief of the space blocking plan.

Looking at everyone's puzzled eyes, Zhao Lan smiled faintly and did not give any explanation for his own affairs. Coming directly to the office, Zhao Lan called his assistant and instructed: "Report to me all the progress of the task during the time I left." ”

The assistant brought a thick stack of documents a moment later. Zhao Lan took a look and found that Victor, the commander-in-chief who had replaced him for a period of time, was doing quite a good job, everything was going according to plan, everything was in order, and there was no omission. This made it much easier for Zhao Lan to take over the work.

Zhao Lan once again entered the state of work, and re-entered the days of being busy calculating data, holding meetings, discussing plans, supervising and inspecting construction, inspecting the construction of hydrogen bomb spacecraft, and placing hydrogen bomb spacecraft at space nodes.

Unlike Victor, Zhao Lan also took on a new job, which was to check the progress of the Black Hole Slimming Program. Before, it was sneaky, but now that the existence of the black hole has been exposed, and this matter has become legal, Zhao Lan finally no longer needs to be like a thief, but begins to enter the base openly.

After coming to the base by legal means. Zhao Lan realized how tight the security measures of the base were at this moment. The human government has placed almost all of the most sophisticated weapons and the best soldiers around the base to prevent malicious people from coming here to wreak havoc. The security level inside is also strict to the point of being a bit cumbersome. The base is full of heavily armed soldiers. In almost every corridor, there is a checkpoint manned 24 hours a day. It can be said that the government has done its best to ensure the security of the base.

After following Zhao Lan to the base, Cruise and An Liya, who followed Zhao Lan to the base, couldn't help but begin to secretly congratulate themselves for not taking a strong attack at the beginning. If a strong attack had been taken, it would have almost certainly been wiped out within ten kilometers of the base, even if An Liya had organized 10,000 armed men to come. The odds of success are not 1 in 10,000, but zero.

This also shows the fear of this black hole on the part of the government. Zhao Lan can completely understand this mentality. Because at the beginning, when Zhao Lan first learned that there was a black hole above the earth, Zhao Lan also felt very scared. Unlike a flood, an earthquake, or a volcanic eruption, this is something dangerous that can destroy the entire planet if something happens.

After Zhao Lan was captured, the black hole slimming program that the base had been carrying out was stopped, and instead a large number of scientists were observing the various physical properties of the black hole at close range all day long. It is not easy to observe a black hole up close, even with the development of human civilization technology up to now, the closest macroscopic black hole observed is more than 1,000 light-years away from the Earth. Observations at such long distances are very limited.

After getting a chance to observe this black hole up close. Some scientists in theoretical physics and high-energy physics even excitedly claim that because of the existence of this black hole, human civilization will save at least 300 years of time on the road of scientific and technological development. This black hole is fully capable of propelling the entire human civilization to take a big leap forward.

Therefore, when Zhao Lan, as the commander-in-chief of the space interruption program and the person in charge of the base, announced the restart of the black hole slimming plan, and wanted to let the black hole evaporate after a month...... Zhao Lan encountered an outcry from a group of at least thousands of scientists, represented by a few respected elderly scientists. Those old men even broke into Zhao Lan's office directly, and talked there for a long time, spraying saliva on Zhao Lan's face. In the face of these highly meritorious seniors in the scientific community, Zhao Lan did not dare to make a mistake at all, so he could only explain patiently with a smile there.

In fact, that group of scientists also understands this truth, and they also know very well that compared to the fate of the entire human civilization, a black hole does seem insignificant. So they came up with an extremely complex plan of action, which planned to reduce the mass of the black hole to 120,000 tons instead of the original 100,000 tons, so that the black hole's lifespan would double from about four days to eight days. Then transport the 120,000-ton black hole to the third space node -- in the calculation, the radiant power of a 120,000-ton black hole can also meet the needs of the space blocking program, and after the space blocking program is completed, after the mass of the black hole is reduced to less than 40,000 tons, the black hole will be urgently infused with materials to rescue the dying black hole. In this way, human civilization has completed the space interdiction program and retained this black hole.

But the plan was too complicated and too sophisticated. Not to mention the difficulties and accidents encountered in the specific operation, the radiated power of low-mass black holes alone is a difficult thing to solve. Because of its terrifying radiation, the radiation from a black hole pushes matter away before it gets close to it, creating a situation where it can't eat. To solve this problem, scientists also need to build an extremely complex device.

But...... The more complex the plan, the easier it is to make mistakes. Even if the implementation of this plan only increases the failure rate of the overall plan by one percentage point, this is unacceptable to Zhao Lan. So Zhao Lan had no choice but to harden his heart and reject the scientists' proposal.

Zhao Lan can understand the anxious mood of these scientists. In fact, Zhao Lan himself is extremely sorry, Zhao Lan also wants this black hole to be in the hands of human civilization forever, so that scientists in human civilization can study this black hole in detail and thoroughly. But Zhao Lan must be responsible for the entire human civilization, so Zhao Lan had to make up his mind to sacrifice this black hole, and also sacrifice the possibility of obtaining a large number of experimental observation data from this black hole in the future, and endure the pain to destroy it.

The representatives of the scientists eventually left Zhao Lan's office disappointed. After their appeal was rejected, they did not take any other countermeasures, but began to seize all the time around the black hole and collect experimental data as much as possible. Zhao Lan is naturally supportive of this, as long as it does not violate the principles, Zhao Lan usually approves the observation plans of these scientists.

It was in this situation that the Black Hole Slimming Program was reopened. It's summer now, and the efficiency of the thousands of radiators arranged around the base has been greatly hindered by the loss of nature's strong temperature control ability. And because the black hole slimming plan was suspended during the period when Zhao Lan was arrested, the original weight loss data was not reached, and now Zhao Lan must subtract more mass from the black hole in a shorter period of time to achieve the predetermined goal. This is a very difficult task, even if Zhao Lan turns on the power of the cooling system to the maximum, the mass reduction rate of the black hole still does not meet expectations.

At this time, the power of the human government participated, and while solving the dilemma faced by Zhao Lan in one fell swoop, it also allowed Zhao Lan to once again witness the huge overall strength of human civilization. In just five days, the government construction crew doubled the number of radiators and increased the heat dissipation area. As a result, the rate at which the mass of the black hole decreases finally meets Zhao Lan's requirements. Zhao Lan's heart that had been hanging finally let go.

Time slipped away bit by bit, and the countdown days finally jumped to the number five. This means that after five days, it will be time for the Space Interruption Program to be officially implemented. All of the hydrogen bomb ships were arranged in the predetermined space nodes, except for the third space node, which was still empty.

Tomorrow the mass of the black hole will be reduced to 100,000 tons, and a 100,000-ton black hole has a lifespan of about four days. At that time, it will be transported to Space Node Three, where it will radiate its mass freely without human interference, and radiate all of its energy within three hours before and after the predetermined time point arrives, and finally disappear into this universe.

All the means of transport have been prepared, and the heavy spacecraft responsible for transporting the black hole has long been moored in the Earth Harbor, in order to welcome the arrival of the Black Hole, the Earth Harbor and the space elevator have been under martial law since five days ago, and all social personnel are prohibited from entering except for personnel and materials with special government passes. During this time, the staff strictly inspected every component of the space elevator and the Earth port, and ensured that the black hole transportation operation was foolproof with the strictest attitude.

Everything is ready, just wait for the time to start transporting the black hole.

It was already late at night, but Zhao Lan still couldn't fall asleep. This matter is really too important, although all preparations have been made, and anything that can be thought of has been done, Zhao Lan still feels a little uneasy.

So Zhao Lan called An Liya, and the two came to the black hole together, planning to walk around at will to see if they could find any more loopholes in order to make up for it as soon as possible.

But just when Zhao Lan and An Liya came to the vicinity of the black hole feeding equipment, Zhao Lan saw a figure. (To be continued......)
