Chapter 2 Ten Percent
The old man was the supreme leader of the Human Alliance. The few people who accompanied the old man were also important figures in the Human Alliance. When he first saw these people, Zhao Huasheng vaguely expected that something big would happen, but all this came too suddenly, in fact, until now, Zhao Huasheng has not calmed down.
Richie died, committed suicide, but left himself with a blank slate before committing suicide. It can almost be said that it is the highest level of meeting, with the participation of the top leader, at the moment, the top leader is still asking himself "what happened to the sun".
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Zhao Huasheng muttered a few times, slapped his head a few times, sat on his seat and closed his eyes and was silent for a while, digesting what he heard and touched at the moment, and finally calmed down.
"Can you tell me, what the hell is going on? What's going on? β
The old man gestured to Meng Zhuo, and Meng Zhuo said: "At about three o'clock in the morning tonight, the solar observation telescope deployed in the Western Hemisphere, the fifteen solar observation satellites deployed in the Earth's orbit, and the observation satellites deployed in the Lagrange point and the orbit around the Sun reported a message to the Crisis Prevention Department at the same time, and the content of all the messages was exactly the same, that is, the intensity of solar radiation had dropped sharply by ten percent in just a few minutes, and it was still rapidly decreasing. After receiving this news, the Crisis Prevention Department quickly reported this information to the FΓΌhrer's Office, and contacted Director Li Qi of your Stellar Physics Research Institute. β
"After knocking on the door and getting no response, we forcibly opened the door to Director Rich's residence. Then we found out that Director Richie was dead, and we found traces of a fire at the scene, but strangely, it seemed to be a controlled fire, and it only happened in Director Richie's bedroom. Director Richie's body was also severely damaged, and an autopsy showed that Director Richie died in the fire. The scene of the fire was a mess, but this safe was well preserved, and we have reason to believe that Director Li Qi specially kept it for you to convey information to you. β
"We found that Director Li Qi had been normal for a few days before committing suicide, except last night, Director Li Qi, who has never drunk alcohol, asked you to drink with you in the restaurant on the top floor of Century Building, and talked to you for at least an hour. Looking through the records of Director Rich's previous research, we also came to the conclusion that Director Richie had known about the imminent upheaval of the sun for at least a year, but for some reason, Director Richie had not released these results to the public. β
"Well, there's one more thing, and that's the time of Director Rich's death. An autopsy revealed that Director Richie died exactly an hour before the Sunshake. β
"From this, we can know that Director Richie knew about the upcoming changes in the sun for a long time, and he knew what the reasons for this change were, and he knew everything, but he didn't say anything, but had a conversation with you before he died, and left you a blank sheet of paper, and a last word that you could answer all our questions...... So, Zhao Huasheng, can you tell me, what is going on with all this? β
Mondr's tone of voice remained flat, not fluctuating at all. But these words set off a monstrous wave in Zhao Huasheng's mind. Zhao Huasheng's brain and thoughts had almost come to a standstill, but Meng Zhuo's words still forced into Zhao Huasheng's mind like bullets.
"No...... Impossible, how could the level of solar radiation suddenly drop by ten percent...... That's not right...... If the level of solar radiation decreases, it will not be able to withstand the tremendous pressure on itself, and it will shrink in size and increase the density in order to increase the core temperature and thus re-increase the radiation level...... It is a process of dynamic equilibrium...... This is common sense......" Zhao Huasheng muttered.
The old man gestured to Meng Zhuo again, and Meng Zhuo took a stack of materials and put them in front of Zhao Huasheng.
This is a schematic diagram of the change in the level of solar radiation, as well as preliminary observations from various observation satellites, as well as some preliminary analysis conclusions. These things are often in contact with Zhao Huasheng, so Zhao Huasheng understood the things described above at a glance.
All the probes are unmistakably stating a conclusion: "The level of solar radiation has decreased, but the mass, volume, and density of the sun have not changed much." β
"You know what a 10 percent reduction in solar radiation levels means, right?" The old man said slowly: "This means that the whole earth will enter the worst ice age in history, the equator will become temperate, and the temperate zone will become cold...... The Antarctic ice sheet would even border South America, the Greenland ice sheet would reach the Asian continent, and much of the planet would become uninhabitable, food production would be drastically reduced, tens of billions of people would starve to death, and if solar radiation levels continued to decline...... It is not certain that our human civilization will completely collapse, and we will degenerate into primitive people. β
"Today is the first day of reduced levels of solar radiation. Because of the atmospheric circulation and the thermal insulation of the ocean, we don't notice much change for the time being, at most we feel that the weather is getting a little colder. But if we don't raise the level of solar radiation, the temperature will slowly drop until we can't handle it. So, Zhao Huasheng, you come and tell me, what should we do? β
"I don't know, I don't know." Zhao Huasheng muttered.
"What did Director Li Qi say to you last night? You repeat it, and you must not miss a word. A physicist at the meeting said.
"I ......" Zhao Huasheng calmed down and said with a little bitterness: "Yesterday was Friday, and after getting off work, Director Li Qi found me and said that he wanted to take me to open my eyes...... We went to the restaurant on the top floor of the Century Building, and Director Li Qi told me to sit down and order...... Then he drank and asked me how I was doing and if I had any ideas, and after talking for a while, Director Li Qi led the conversation to the insignificance of human civilization......
There was a clerk next to him who was quickly recording what Zhao Huasheng said. In the process of Zhao Huasheng's recollection, the clerk did not interject at all, and kept recording silently. After Zhao Huasheng finished speaking, the clerk checked the records, and then asked, "On the way to the underground parking lot where you and Director Li Qi left, did Director Li Qi say "The weather is good today" or "It's cool today"? β
Zhao Huasheng recalled and said, "It's the weather that is good today. β
"On the way Director Li Qi drove you to the Century Building, how many times did Director Li Qi complain about the traffic jam?"
"Three times." Zhao Huasheng thought for a moment, and then replied.
Zhao Huasheng has a very good memory, and when he was in college, Zhao Huasheng even won the championship of the memory competition. It is precisely because of this that Zhao Huasheng can recall every detail of last night.
β¦β¦
"Are you sure Director Richie didn't say things like 'Come in and sit down' before he went home and closed the door? β
"Nope." Zhao Huasheng replied.
"Okay, here's the full record of the conversation between you, you can see if there are any omissions." The clerk said.
Zhao Huasheng took the records, quickly skimmed through them, and then said, "There is no omission." β
"If you think about anything, don't hesitate to report it to Monzo. Monjo, you've been following Watson all this time. The old man said.
"Yes." Mondra spat out a word.
At this moment, there was a knock at the door of the conference room. After receiving permission, a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and dressed as a secretary walked in.
"Chief, the paper test results have come out, this is just an ordinary A4 paper, it has not been processed by any technical means after it was produced, and there is no invisible agent on it. Cryptography experts did not derive any valuable information from details such as the distribution of the paper's fibers, indentations, etc. The paper was produced three months ago, purchased in an ordinary office consumables store, produced in a forestry company called "Feixiang", the raw material of the paper is fast-growing poplar, the growth age is three years and one hundred and fifty-two days, the same batch of paper has produced a total of six tons, five tons have flowed into the market, the remaining one ton has been sealed, four of the five tons that have flowed into the market have been recovered, and the remaining zero and five tons have been sent to the residences of the purchasers and the garbage transfer center to continue the search, and a total of 3,0070 people have been in contact with the batch of paper. Background checks have been carried out in full...... So far, we have not found any valuable information. β
"Organize a group of psychological experts to immediately launch a psychological investigation of Li Qi, and at the same time, gather experts from all walks of life to immediately analyze and study all the research materials left by Li Qi and all the objects he has come into contact with. I want to know the reason for Li Qi's suicide in the shortest possible time, why Li Qi had anticipated this disaster and refused to give early warning, why he chose to commit suicide before the disaster finally happened, and why he left Zhao Huasheng with a blank slate...... Also, how did Litch predict this catastrophe, what is Leach's unique research on the changes in the sun at this moment, and most importantly, whether Litchie has any way to solve this crisis, and if so, what is the solution to the crisis. β
"At the same time, immediately convene relevant scientists from all over the alliance to immediately analyze the changes in the sun."
The old man gave one unquestionable order after another in a flat tone. After saying all this, the old man rubbed his temples a little tiredly, glanced at Zhao Huasheng, and said, "Watson, from today onwards, to a certain extent, the fate of mankind ...... It's in your hands. β
