Chen Fangyu actually brought another friend when he came to the new space city, that is, Sappelle, which Chen Fangyu did only do so after seeking the consent of Sappelle himself through the 'superstring', Chen Fangyu felt that Sapple, as the oldest life in the universe, might be able to help his daughter-in-law Fei Xinran solve some problems, and even wake up the superstring system of the new space city and become another intelligent 'superstring', but after coming to the new space city for a period of time, Chen Fangyu found that the superstring system here has not changed anything, In addition to some abilities given by artificial intelligence, it still can't have human-like personality and intelligence like the 'superstring' of Space City, but Sappelle did help Fei Xinra, and at several key nodes, Sappelle helped Fei Xinra calculate an important space matter conversion formula, which greatly accelerated the progress of Fei Xinra's dark matter basin research team.

Since Wang Xiaohui left Gu Guoqiang, the relationship between Gu Guoqiang and Chen Fangyu has stabilized again, although Fei Xinran is busy, but since marrying their son Gu Xinyu, they have given birth to two children for Gu Xinyu, so Gu Guoqiang and Chen Fangyu's biggest fun is to take a grandson and a granddaughter home from kindergarten and school to enjoy the joy of family after work, until they also grow up and start to get busy.

On the fifteenth day of the convergence of the space station and the space city, all the personnel and important equipment of the space station have been transferred to the space city, Shen Qinghua led the people of the space station to hold a brief farewell ceremony for the space station, after the farewell ceremony, several passages connecting the space station and the space city were closed and disconnected one after another, the space station slowly left the space city and automatically turned on the power system, the space station will enter the bottom orbit of Titan in two days, and will crash on the rocky mountains of Titan five days later.

Bidding farewell to the space station where he had been stationed for decades, Shen Qinghua returned to his new office in Space City, and as soon as he pushed the door, he found Fei Meng sitting on the sofa drinking tea. Shen Qinghua asked with a smile:

"Didn't you say you didn't want to go to the farewell ceremony on the space station? So I didn't invite you, why do you regret it? ”

Feimeng shook his head and said: "I'm not as ruthless as you, and I can personally preside over the farewell ceremony, for me, I don't want to lose a steel plate and a wire of the New New Human Association, because they are all exchanged for sweat and even blood by us!" ”

"Haha, old classmate, don't be so sentimental! The space station is outdated, it is no longer suitable for long-distance flights, what can be done without obsolescence? ”

"yes, I know it's a must. By the way, I'm here to ask you how are the new probes we launched from New Space City the other day to the F-1 planet are working? ”

"Oh, very good, I talked to Xinran about these probes yesterday, I know you will be concerned, after all, they are here for us to go to Feixing-1 to make a pre-station, they are all very good at the moment, they are crossing the dark matter basin and are estimated to arrive near Feixing-1 on time, you and your daughter haven't spoken for a few days? Why does Xinra seem like it's my daughter? ”

Fei Meng heard Shen Qinghua's joking words and smiled bitterly and replied: "Alas, don't mention it, Xinran rarely tells me about her work, and I don't always ask her, that's like treating a child, and the work briefing is usually only submitted once a week, and I can't let everyone write a report every day, then don't do it, you are different, you have a direct working relationship, of course, it is faster to ask you about this matter." ”

When the two of them were talking, they both felt the space city vibrate slightly, and Feimont knew that the 'superstring' had started the power system as planned, and the space city was about to start accelerating, and after five days of acceleration around Titan, the space city would finally get out of the orbit that was now flying around Titan, and fly out of the solar system at high speed towards the new space city.

Fei Xinran and Gu Guoqiang of the new space city already knew that Fei Meng was leading the space city to start departing, and nearly four million people were about to make them all feel very excited, when the two space cities would be re-integrated into three new space cities, each new space city would be two million people, and then enter the dark matter basin at the same time and head towards the F-1 terrestrial planet.

In order to prepare for the arrival of Fei Meng and others more than three months later, Gu Guoqiang issued a very strict production plan to many production bases located in the asteroid group outside the new space city, because after the convergence of the two space cities, a large number of various materials need to be replenished before they can embark on a distant journey, so the shortage of manpower in the new space city is also more obvious at this time, so Wang Xiaohui, who is responsible for the control of the production plan, constantly urges Fei Xinran and Gu Guoqiang to send people to the production base. Or allow the production of more intelligent robots to replace the large number of personnel needed, because according to the production plan formulated by Gu Guoqiang, the current production capacity cannot meet the production requirements every day, so that the plan formulated by Gu Guoqiang is a dead letter, and the large number of materials needed will definitely not be able to be produced at that time.

Since the 'superstring' of Space City was 'awakened' by Sappelle, both Feimeng and Professor Gu Liang have changed their original attitude of resolutely prohibiting the development of artificial intelligence, which has made the New New Human Association also begin to have intelligent robots in the real sense, but the 'five-person team' still has strict regulations on intelligent robots, these regulations are mainly to limit the number of intelligent robots in each base, the use and the level of intelligence that is allowed to be developed, so according to these regulations, There are not many intelligent robots to replace manual labor in the production base of the new space city, and many positions are still controlled by people.

Receiving Wang Xiaohui's urgent request to increase the manpower of tens of thousands, Gu Guoqiang had to discuss with Fei Xinran the solution to the problem, and the two decided to use manual labor as much as possible to solve the current problems, because the production base of the asteroid belt will eventually be abandoned in a few months, and the production of a large number of robots will undoubtedly cause huge costs and time is also very tight. But where can we find the tens of thousands of people who need them? Gu Guoqiang finally suggested that the manpower needed by Wang Xiaohui should be drawn from the Hummingbird fighter squadrons of the Dreadnought, and the crew members and auxiliary maintenance personnel could be mainly transferred from the Hummingbird fighter squadron, because it is now peacetime, there should be no major problem in temporarily reducing patrols and defenses, and then transfer back to the original post after the production task is completed, which will only make the manpower of the new space city a little tighter, and it will not affect the normal operation at all, because a large number of hummingbird fighters have been mothballed in the new space city. Only 20,000 planes were left that were necessary for daily defense, although Fei Xinran had no other good way to agree to Gu Guoqiang's suggestion, and soon many of the crew members of the existing 30,000 Hummingbird fighters in the new space city received temporary orders, and these ** parts were pilots, weapons control and mechanics in the crew, and the appointment required them to report to their newly designated production plants within three days, and return to the original crew after three months.

Tens of thousands of crew members were transferred to the production department, although the commanders of the Hummingbird fighter have very opinions, but this kind of temporary transfer also happens frequently, and now there has been no war for a long time, and there is no suitable reason to prevent the temporary transfer, so Gu Guoqiang's plan was quickly implemented, and the production base has been able to complete the daily production tasks as required.

Time flies, more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Faimon's Space City has flown half the distance, all the Dreadnought complexes have opened the power module, and the Space City has flown towards the new Space City at a steady one-third of the sub-light speed.

From time to time, Gu Guoqiang reported all kinds of good news to Feimeng: the production of new antimatter fuel cells has doubled, a newly excavated comet fragment contains a lot of water, the entire fragment has been decomposed and loaded into three Dreadnoughts, and the grain planting base is being relocated to thirty Dreadnoughts, etc., Gu Guoqiang is actually telling Femon: Come on, everything is going well, and we can move on when you arrive.

When Gu Guoqiang was happily introducing the progress of this work to Fei Meng, his son Gu Xinyu suddenly appeared directly from the emergency communication channel in the large display screen on Gu Guoqiang's desk, and Gu Xinyu immediately said without waiting for his father to ask:

"Father, our dark matter monitoring system has just suddenly sent out an alarm, which indicates that there may be a dark matter tribe approaching us, I suggest that we should go into a state of alert immediately!"

"Oh! Where is the location of the detector for the alarm? ”

"Nearly a light-year away are some of the early warning probes we launched more than a decade ago, in an area that has never been carefully explored, where there is darkness and no galaxies."

After listening to his son's answer, Gu Guoqiang smiled and said: "Son, are you too cautious, a light year away is a very long distance, and this may also be a false alarm, we can't make a fuss just because we receive an alarm, you check and check carefully, and we will discuss it when the information and data are accurate?" ”

Gu Xinyu was a little anxious when he heard his father's words and said: "It's better to be careful, although this alarm came from a year ago, but if the hostile dark matter tribe wants to attack us, it may come soon, and the speed of their movement is often several times the speed of light, I still recommend ......"

"Okay son, I know, you continue to reconnoiter now, launch the latest detector in the direction of the alarm a little more, we can't easily raise the early warning level now, that means that all the Hummingbird fighters must enter a state of readiness, the crew must be in full place, do you want me to let the people who have just been transferred to the production task come back? It will definitely be okay in more than a month, and they will have completed their work by then, and it will not be too late for you to raise the alert level! ”
