The black hole cooling equipment and feeding equipment installed in the base are the two most important tools for controlling the mass of the black hole. The cooling equipment is naturally the radiators installed around the base, and the feeding equipment is a material conveyor belt that leads directly to the electric field control box. Black holes are not picky eaters, and black holes can eat anything, so what is fed to black holes is usually some rocks, dirt, or waste and the like. Of course, in order to enhance the feeding efficiency of the black hole, these things will undergo some necessary processing before feeding the black hole, such as grinding them into powder.

Zhao Lan is the figure he saw here. The man was a middle-aged man, wearing a uniform white uniform within the base, and did not appear to be anything unusual. Even in the middle of the night, there are naturally a large number of staff working in the base, so it is not strange to see a figure or something. It's just that this is near the black hole feeding equipment, and there are usually few people here, so Zhao Lan walked over, intending to see what this staff member was doing.

Zhao Lan walked over, and An Liya followed behind Zhao Lan and moved forward. An Liya is a big personality, and the two are both women, so Zhao Lan and An Liya are very compatible, and the two love to be together no matter what they do, and this time is naturally no exception.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, the staff member in the white coat suddenly turned around, Zhao Lan just wanted to ask something, and noticed that the staff member's expression was a little strange, and after a closer look, he found that his expression was a panicked look like a thief suddenly being caught by his master.

There are usually few people here, and the guards at the base are not standing guard here. But Zhao Lan looked at An Liya who was following her, and her mood relaxed. Zhao Lan walked over and asked, "Which department are you?" What are you doing here? ”

"I ...... I'm ......" The man stammered at first. But after a few moments, the flow returned: "My name is Alan. is a high-energy physicist. Let me check what kind of material is being fed to the black hole today. One of the topics of our group is to study the different phenomena that occur when different substances rotate around a black hole at high speed. This is my tablet. ”

As he spoke, the staff member took off the work card hanging on his chest and handed it to Zhao Lan. Zhao Lan checked it and found that it was indeed as he said. The reason given by this staff member is also very reasonable, although Zhao Lan is not very proficient in this project, he also knows that there is indeed such a research topic.

There are no loopholes in everything, everything is very reasonable, but Zhao Lan is still a little strange in his heart. Zhao Lan secretly thought in his heart: "Why did this person panic when he saw me coming here? ”

But then Zhao Lan thought: "In such a quiet environment. Suddenly I heard footsteps, and it was probably normal to be startled, I guess I was too worried. ”

So Zhao Lan returned the work card, and then said, "Okay, then you continue, I won't disturb your work." ”

"I'm done with my job, and I'm leaving." The staff member said he was leaving. But at this time, An Liya, who had been quiet, suddenly spoke: "Please wait a minute. ”

The staff member turned around and looked more and more unnatural: "Excuse me, what else do you have to do?" ”

An Liya said with a smile: "Your face skin doesn't seem to be very good." You see, there's dead skin here......"

Zhao Lan felt a little strange in her heart. Before he could react, he saw An Liya's hand quickly reach out to the face of this staff member, and then tear it hard, as if it was magic, and the staff member in front of him immediately changed his face and became completely different from before.

Zhao Lan exclaimed, and reacted instantly, the staff member must have had a mask on his face just now. I didn't find it, but An Liya did. Now that An Liya has torn off the mask on his face, his appearance has naturally changed.

But the next moment he saw the new face of the person in front of him, Zhao Lan let out another exclamation. Because Zhao Lan suddenly reacted, the person in front of him, this face, this, this ...... Isn't this Rodriguez?

How did Rodriguez end up here?! How did Rodriguez have Alan's identity? It's late at night, and what does he want to do here alone?

A series of questions welled up in Zhao Lan's heart, but he saw that the smile on An Liya's face was even stronger: "I didn't expect that Rodriguez, it would be you...... It's been a long time since we've seen each other. How are you doing during this time? Have you digested the legacy left by your boss? ”

It was precisely because of Rodriguez's betrayal that the base was occupied by the government, Zhao Lan was arrested and put in prison, Zhao Lan and An Liya almost died in space to save the situation, all these unnecessary troubles are all because of Rodriguez!

As soon as Zhao Lan wanted to shout out to the guards, he heard Rodriguez yell, turned around and ran. Zhao Lan shouted anxiously: "An Liya, hurry up and catch this guy, don't let him run away!" ”

"No hurry, no hurry." An Liya said for a long time, took out the mobile phone she was carrying, and then threw it hard, smashing it towards Rodriguez, who fled in panic. The phone made a beautiful arc in the hallway, and then smashed into Rodriguez's head accurately. Rodriguez screamed, stumbling on his feet, and fell suddenly. But there was a material entrance in front of him that fed the black hole, and Rodriguez didn't grasp it steadily, and he fell down all at once.

An Liya shrugged her shoulders indifferently: "I'm sorry, I pushed a little harder." ”

Zhao Lan shouted anxiously: "Quick, turn off the conveyor belt, we have to catch Rodriguez, and then ask him what the hell he is doing here." ”

But it is clear that time is running out. Any operation on the black hole needs to be reported layer by layer, and even Zhao Lan, who is the commander-in-chief of the space blocking plan, cannot make changes to this black hole at will. By the time Zhao Lan finally hurriedly reported, then reviewed, and then stopped feeding the black hole, Rodriguez didn't know where to go.

Zhao Lan hurriedly ran back, and called up the video data in the first-level transmission channel of the electric field control box from the vast video surveillance data, and saw a terrifying picture from the display device.

The first thing shown in the picture is Rodriguez screaming in panic and struggling desperately, but the speed of the conveyor belt is so fast that he has no place to escape. So Zhao Lan saw that a minute after Rodriguez fell into the feeding port, he followed the food of the black hole to the isolation cabin. Immediately afterwards, under the operation of the automatic extraction equipment, the air density in the isolation chamber began to decrease rapidly. Rodriguez was screaming desperately, struggling desperately, but no one was going to save him at the moment. Zhao Lan saw that blisters began to bulge on Rodriguez's body, his eyes began to bulge outward, and his body began to have a tendency to expand, as if it would explode in the next moment.

The boiling point of a liquid is closely related to atmospheric pressure, and the lower the atmospheric pressure, the lower the boiling point of the liquid. There are many fluids in the human body, such as blood, tissue fluid, cell fluid, and so on. Now the air pressure has decreased, but the temperature of those liquids has not decreased. So they began to boil, and it was because of the boiling of these liquids that blisters appeared on Rodriguez's body. It's a real bit of a blood boil.

The human body does not explode in the vacuum of space because the temperature is too low. But the temperature in the isolation chamber is different, and the temperature there is even a little higher than the room temperature. So under the pressure inside the body, Rodriguez's body will swell.

Rodriguez struggled for only a few moments and didn't move. By now, Rodriguez is undoubtedly dead. Dying in a vacuum is a painful way to die, but the torture that is about to be inflicted on Rodriguez is clearly more than that. After the isolation chamber was turned into a vacuum, the automata began to operate again, and Rodriguez's corpse was transported to the next stage of processing along with the black hole's food.

During this process, all the food fed to the black hole is processed into a hot gas, because this is the only way to ensure the black hole's feeding rate. Rodriguez's body was turned into ashes along with the food in the heat, and then dumped into the electric field control box.

Rodriguez died like this, and then was swallowed up by the black hole. Although this black hole will "spit out" everything in its body in the form of Hawking radiation in the near future, it is clear that those elementary particles can no longer be assembled into a complete Rodriguez.

Rodriguez has since disappeared into the universe entirely. Although he didn't have any good feelings for Rodriguez and was extremely disgusted, Zhao Lan still felt a little sick to his stomach when he saw such a miserable death of a person of his kind.

Zhao Lan looked at An Liya with a little sluggishness, "You did it on purpose, right?" You've figured out you're going to drive Rodriguez straight into the conveyor belt. ”

An Liya still shrugged her shoulders indifferently: "I thought you couldn't see it." ”

Zhao Lan shook his head helplessly, and said to An Liya: "Let's go, let's go to that place again and see what the hell Rodriguez has done." (To be continued......)
