Chapter 4: Parting

Since the second half of 1962, every day Kerry will be noisy by the sound of the huge propeller engine and can't sleep, the Air Force cargo overlord C-133 transport plane frequently takes off and lands, transporting truckloads of supplies, some of which are sent to Kerry's warehouse, IBM engineers come in droves to install and debug, according to Rui, this is a supercomputer that is more advanced than the Los Alamos nuclear laboratory.

Kerry has become an authentic American, his position rising through the ranks and gaining authority, allowing him to operate outside the naval base, his son Assanzi. I went to school in my local area.

Kerry finally learned that their base was in the U.S. occupied area of Puerto Rico in the Caribbean, and that the local people were very unfriendly to them, and Kerry learned that before he and Emily came to Puerto Rico, two brave local young men had attempted to assassinate President Harry of the United States, and Puerto Rico, which was once a Spanish colony, had been fighting for independence.

But now, the Americans are starting to build on the island nation, building a high-grade highway from the capital, San Juan, along the seashore to the west.

At Christmas, Kerry drove Emily and Assanzi west along the coastal road, and trucks loaded with equipment and rocks filled the newly built road, more than 60 kilometers of which cost Kerry two hours.

At the end of the road, the town of Arecivo, a small town built on a high mountain, where Kerry has been before, is full of karst formations, and the underground lasible rock has been washed by the undercurrent to form huge caves, along which the underground river can be explored by small boats led by locals.

Kerry had suspected that there were other secret projects hiding at Roosevelt Roads Naval Base, but he never dared to let the locals lead him into danger.

When they arrived in town, Kerry's family came down and walked into the mountains on foot, when suddenly there was a loud noise, "Look, Daddy, a big bowl!" Assanzi cried out, and Kerry and Emily looked in the direction of Assange's finger, and the two of them were stunned.

The huge mountain bag was dug into a semi-circular pit, the size of ten football fields, and the excavation trucks under the pit looked like toys, and a makeshift stone road led from the side of the bowl to the bottom, and the trucks seen on the road carried out the explosives from the rocks, which seemed to have been going on for some time.

"Who are you, this is a military restricted area." A gendarme came up to stop them, Kerry pulled out a pass to the Roosevelt Road Naval Base, the gendarme saluted him and let them in, Kerry walked closer, and a stone sign was engraved with the words of the Arecivo Observatory.

"This is obviously an observatory, how can it be a military restricted area?" Emily asked Kerry.

"It looks like a radio astronomy telescope is going to be built, it looks too big." Kerry replied.

"Dad, the telescope you bought me is a long tube, why does this look like a bowl?" Assanzi asked curiously.

"It's different from what you see with optical lenses, kid, this one is only twenty years old, and like the radar of our naval base, it receives electromagnetic waves in the sky, and the stars in the sky can also emit electromagnetic waves, and with this kind of telescope, you can see the stars on rainy days." Kerry touched Assanzi's head and patiently explained.

"Dad, I'm going to be here on a rainy day to see the stars." Assanzi said in a milky voice.

"Look, if it can be used, it will have to wait until you grow up, you are still young, so let's use Dad's telescope to look at the stars at home first." Kerry coaxed Assanzi.

"Where is the telescope, it must be a trick to deceive the locals, I think it's a super radar." Emily said.

"What is the use of such a large radar fixed on the ground and cannot be rotated? Detect missiles? I can only see this small piece on the zenith. Kerry and Emily discussed for a long time to no avail, and the underground cave was not completed, so the family had to drive back to the naval base.

At night, Kerry and Emily lay in bed listening to the radio, the news from the United States could only come through short waves, there were many radars at the Navy base stations, and the interference was very strong, and the Crito people bought a Gend brand radio from Germany.

"There is a murmur from such a good brand", hearing Emily complain, Kerry suddenly remembered something and shouted, "The ionosphere, it's the ionosphere." ”

Emily poked his arm, "The voice is soft, Assanzi is already asleep, what are you yelling about." ”

"That telescope must have collected the short waves reflected from the ionosphere, so that it doesn't have to move the angle and relies on the ionosphere to reflect the short waves around the world." Kerry whispered.

Emily understood, she had learned in technical school that in an area more than 60 kilometers above the Earth, the atmosphere is completely ionized by solar radiation, forming an ionosphere, and the wireless short waves emitted from the Earth can reach any other place on the Earth through countless reflections of the ionosphere, which is the principle of shortwave radio.

Early the next morning, Anderson told Kerry to come to the conference room for a meeting. Kerry entered the conference room, the middle and high-level leaders in the base were all there, Anderson stood in front of the table, there were two instruments on it, Anderson pointed to one of them and said, "This is John?" Reed invented the multispectral scanner, and you take its polygraph test every year, and I'm sure you're familiar with his principles. ”

He pointed to another device and said: "This is Eintofen's spin electrocardiometer, which was used by the German doctor Berger to discover the brain waves of the human brain at the beginning of World War II." ”

Anderson paused, "We've been studying Nazi materials for fifteen years, and we've found that the radio signals that exist in the human brain can somehow radiate faintly, and now we don't need any lie detectors anymore!" With a wave of his hand, Anderson swept the Reed polygraph to the ground.

"As some of you already know, we are building the most powerful radar ever built in the universe in Arecivo, which will receive the brainwaves of everyone in the world, and the task of our naval communications station supercomputer is to decipher these radio waves."

"The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency knows that taxpayers' money is wasted, and that it will take twenty years for mathematical and statistical methods to analyze the human mind with natural language as the carrier." Rui was a top student in the mathematics department of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology before entering Roosevelt Roads Naval Base, and he was unimpressed by Anderson's words.

Anderson heard Rui's voice, "Don't think that your MIT math department is amazing, Cornell is going to leave you behind this time." Rui, your group is responsible for the operation of the decipherment program, and if you can't do it in one year, you will do it for two years, and if you can't do it in two years, you will do it for three years until you succeed. If that day comes, we will dig out what is going on in the brains of everyone in the Kremlin! We will control the minds of three billion humans on Earth! Go to its newspapers! We don't have to watch these newspapers, radio and phone calls every day! ”

"General Anderson, how are you going to hide your thoughts then?" Offstage, Lipper, made a joke about Anderson. "Me? Think about how you can hide your own filthy brains. Anderson fought back without hesitation.

By the end of 1963, the Arecivo radio telescope was completed, covered with a reflective metal mesh, like a huge honeycomb, with three pillars more than 100 meters high standing on the edge of the mirror, and three steel cables hanging the signal receiver from the focal point of the mirror.

Due to the extremely weak brainwave signal, the signal receiver is frozen to near absolute zero in order to reduce the interference of the receiver circuit noise.

No one knew what the brain waves looked like, and they didn't know how to decipher them, everyone watched the scientists sent by Cornell busy, in fact, everyone was slacking off, and Anderson's last sentence filled everyone involved in the naval base with deep fear.

When the Arecivo radio telescope began to work, Ito's high-potential therapeutics were about to be put on the market, and Ito decided to try it himself before conducting large-scale clinical trials.

On the evening of August 3, 1965, Tadashi Ito came to the laboratory as usual, and not long ago, Tadashi Ito reminded him that it was best to measure the patient's electrocardiogram with an electrocardiometer when the high-potential therapy device was turned on, so as not to have adverse effects on the human body by high voltage.

As soon as Tadamichi Ito arrived at the laboratory and turned on the light, he heard a rumbling sound coming from the ground in the distance.

Although he was a little frightened, Tadamichi Ito, who grew up in Japan, was not surprised, he climbed under the table, and after waiting for a while, the table was still standing quietly on the ground, he carefully stuck his head out, and the electric light was also hanging under the ceiling, not moving, he was relieved, it was probably the sound of thunder.

Tadado Ito got out from under the table, the outside scene seemed to stun him, the colorful halo drilled through the trees, unpredictable, and the aurora seen in the magazine photo, extremely gorgeous, Ito Tadamichi took out the camera in the laboratory, clicked the shutter on these auroras, and after shooting the film, he found that the aura was erratic and did not change much, and then he remembered his mission to the laboratory.

Tadado Ito put down the camera, connected himself to the electrocardiometer, and powered the high-potential therapy device, and something even stranger happened, on the ECG, in addition to the normal heart sharp waves, there was a series of regular small waveforms between the two sharp waves, which were different from the sharp waves, and the pulse waves of high and low levels were very obvious, and the frequency was much higher than the heartbeat frequency.

Tadado Ito was startled, he thought it was some kind of background noise, he connected the connector of the electrocardiogram to the high-potential therapy device, the amplitude of the pulse wave was much smaller, he took it back to his body, the amplitude of the wave went up significantly, he turned off the high-potential therapy device, and the waveform became a normal sharp wave.

Ito was puzzled, and as he checked repeatedly, the light outside became stronger and stronger, and it seemed to rush into the laboratory, brighter than an electric light.

Suddenly there was a rumbling sound in the distance, the earth shook, Ito Tadamichi was dizzy, the electrocardiogram came off his hand, Ito Tadamichi fell to the ground, the electric light also trembled, a burst of ping-pong, instruments and books fell to the ground in a mess, it's over, there was an earthquake, and those erratic lights turned out to be the legendary light of the earth!

The Great Matsushiro Earthquake, which lasted for two years, began, and Ito Tadamichi didn't care about the high-potential therapy device and the electrocardiogram anymore, so he crawled on the ground and crawled towards the ground outside the door, but fortunately his laboratory was inside the university, and he crawled outside the door and ran to the playground in one go.

There were already a lot of people gathered on the playground, and the first earthquake came violently and briefly, Ito Tadamichi had just settled down, remembered his high-potential therapy device and the strange record just now, and ran towards the laboratory desperately, and the teachers and students who knew him well behind him shouted: "Ito-kun, beware of aftershocks!" Watch out for aftershocks! ”

Ito Tadamichi, who was bent on his baby, could not listen to these persuasions, and continued to run towards the laboratory, just as he ran to the door of the laboratory, the ground was beating violently, the asphalt road twisted a few times like a snake, and a big hole was cracked, and the laboratory fell down against the door of the asphalt road, Ito Tadamichi looked in through the crack, and before he could see it, there was a bang, and the laboratory became a ruin in an instant.

Tadamichi Ito couldn't help but cry, but fortunately, he was still alive. For the next two years, the Matsushiro area was intermittent and there were constant aftershocks, and there was no longer a way to conduct experiments.

Ito Tadamichi moved out of Nagano Prefecture and resumed his research, but no matter how much he debugged, he couldn't detect pulse waves. Ito Tadamichi vaguely felt that it seemed to have something to do with the ground light on August 3rd, and he returned to Nagano many times with his equipment, but the aftershocks in Nagano continued, but the ground light never appeared again, and Ito Tadamichi couldn't collect the pulse wave he wanted, so he could only go home in a huff.

Gradually, Tadamichi Ito put the pulse wave matter aside and ******** on perfecting the high-potential therapy device, and he was afraid that users would suspect the side effects of the high-potential therapy device, so he never mentioned the pulse wave thing again.

Tadado Ito didn't know anything about the pulse wave, but he exploded at the naval base in Puerto Rico. Just when the Matsushiro earthquake began, in the duty room of the Arecivo telescope, the engineer found a sudden pulse signal on the oscilloscope, he rubbed his eyes to confirm that he was not mistaken, and immediately called the Roosevelt Road naval communications station, and it was Rui who answered the phone, "What?" Do you find pulsed signals? It's a seismic wave, right? I received a telegram from the National Seismological Observatory that a major earthquake had struck the Nagano region of Japan. ”

Just as he was talking, Anderson rushed in with a wave of Cornell's engineers, Arecivo's signal had already reached the oscilloscope of the Navy communications station, and one of Cornell's leading scientists came up and took off his eyes, staring at the flashing pulse wave for a long time, "General, we have found something that the Nazis did not find!" ”
