Ye Wenjie has been asking herself these days: "Do you really not regret everything you have done?" When the time comes, perhaps those people will not bring progress, but destruction, just as the Spaniards destroyed the Aztec civilization. ”

Especially when she heard her lovely daughter Yang Dong finally hand over the "Mom" today, a crack appeared in the dark ice in her heart.

There is also the respect of the villagers in Qijiatun for themselves, the eyes of the children looking forward to knowledge, and of course, the women who have given themselves and Yang Dong a lot of help like Dafeng, since Yang Dong was born, she feels that her wounds are gradually recovering, the wounds of the past are slowly healing, and the world seems to be full of sunshine again.

Now, it's 1981, and Yang Dong is going to celebrate her first birthday today. Her colleagues in Red Bank have known her for many years, and now her identity is not as sensitive as before, and Red Bank's level of secrecy is not as high as it was when she first arrived more than a decade ago.

Therefore, just now in the base, everyone held her first birthday for Yang Dong, the only little life in the Red Bank. Despite the poor conditions and simplicity, everyone can still feel the excitement of the festival.

She was injured when she gave birth to Yang Dong, and had to recuperate in Qijiatun under the radar peak of the Red Bank Base for more than half a year, and lived in Dafeng's house at that time, and the other women in the tun would always come here to talk, she hugged Yang Dong and the other women to talk, and the children next to her played carefree, which was the time she cherished the most since her father died.

Today she still went to Qijiatun, Yang Dong was sick, after celebrating her birthday, Ye Wenjie suddenly found that Yang Dong had a high fever, and there was only one child on Radar Peak, those people may be very experienced in science, but there is no big way to deal with children. After the leader's consent, she hurriedly took Yang Dong to Qijiatun for help.

Finally in Qijiatun, Dafeng was very experienced in curing Yang Dong's fever, her body temperature was finally normal, looking at the sleeping Yang Dong, Ye Wenjie wiped the fine sweat on her forehead, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She thanked Dafeng again and again: "Sister, thanks to you, look at me, I don't even know what to do if the child has a fever." ”

"Sister, you're welcome, you are a cultural person, you will definitely be able to think of a way." Dafeng's words carry the simplicity of a peasant woman.

Ye Wenjie thanked her again and again before leaving with Yang Dong, she was going back to Radar Peak, this time she only took half a day off, and she had to rush back before dark.

After all, although the secrecy of the Red Bank Project has been reduced a lot, it was also a special situation when she cultivated in Qijiatun for half a year, and in principle, she couldn't come out for too long now.

Therefore, she hurriedly set foot on the road to Gray Radar Peak again.

Just as she was halfway there, the sky was gradually getting darker, and the sun was sinking in the west, and looking at the sun, she couldn't help but think of what she had done in the beginning.

Am I really doing something wrong?

In the dark, she seemed to feel that something was about to fall from the sky, and soon she knew that what she was seeing was not a hallucination, but something that had really happened.

Looking up at the sky, a meteorite appeared in the sky, and the landing point seemed to be not far from her.

Check it out!

Ye Wenjie suddenly had such a thought in her heart, since she knew that there were other intelligent beings in the universe and that human beings were not alone, she had become interested in meteorites.

She had imagined whether the meteorites contained the genetic code of the carriers from elsewhere, or whether they could represent a different civilization that she had never been exposed to, in short, she had a fondness for meteorites.

When she walked to the landing point of the "meteorite", she was surprised to find that a crater had formed there, what did she see? He actually saw a baby with his eyes closed in the center of the crater.

The baby was small, with his eyes closed and his chest heaving, and he was still alive!

Ye Wenjie knew that this time might be the closest time for her to the alien civilization, closer than when she received the reply from the Three-Body World.

She felt that the baby in front of her was an alien visitor who had somehow come to the third planet of the third spiral arm of the Milky Way, a yellow star in the Orion spiral arm.

Because when the meteorite touched the ground, she was two hundred meters away from the landing point, and after experiencing the initial shock wave, she quickly felt here, and it can be said that she was the first person to discover the meteorite.

What am I going to do? Ye Wenjie picked up Li Yi, who had become a baby, and pulled a layer of the futon wrapped around Yang Dong to wrap him. However, after doing all this according to the motherhood in his heart, he began to think about what to do next.

Who is she? Li Yi had already discovered Ye Wenjie, and after thinking for a while, he was ready to go with the flow, he needed to integrate into this world. The person in front of him was a mother, and Li Yi felt that his identity might have fallen.

Ye Wenjie's mind was at war between heaven and man, and after a while, this voice said: "That's just an innocent child, look at your child, it's not an alien......"

After a while, another voice retorted: "Why not?" I was the first to arrive when the meteorite landed just now, he is definitely an alien life, and as for the child, maybe it's just a disguise. ”

……

In the end, I don't know what kind of psychology it was, Ye Wenjie finally decided to take Li Yi back to the Red Bank base, perhaps because of her natural affection for alien civilizations. Coupled with the fact that she is a first-time mother, her motherhood may have prompted her to make this choice.

In the Red Bank base,

The political commissar asked Ye Wenjie, who came to report to him what he had done on leave: "Comrade Ye Wenjie, what's the matter with this child?" The political commissar was surprised by Li Yi's appearance.

"I picked it up outside Radar Peak, Comrade Commissar. He was crying there all the time, and there was only one person around, so I had to bring him here first. Ye Wenjie did not say the identity of Li Yi as he guessed, but lied about seeing it in the wild under the radar peak.

"Okay, but remember to send him out when someone comes." The political commissar doesn't attach much importance to this matter, can a child still be a spy?

"Okay." Ye Wenjie agreed, although she didn't want the alien visitor in front of her to get out of her sight, it was better not to attract attention now.

However, the days that followed made her suspicious, because the baby boy she had picked up from the crater seemed to be dependent on her.

In the entire Red Bank base, except for her, whenever anyone else wanted to contact this little boy, he would cry until she came, and because of this, they finally dispelled the idea of sending Li Yi out.

Of course, Ye Wenjie didn't find anything abnormal, but she just felt that this child might be too clingy.
