037 The Cold Equation
A few minutes later, inside the warehouse.
Wang Ping'an and Angli dragged a refrigerator by themselves, and the drone dragged a refrigerator and a washing machine, and one person and one machine floated towards the door of the warehouse.
Angli was still a little worried: "Will this get stuck when entering the passageway?" ”
Wang Ping'an waved his hand: "I have measured, you can rest assured." ”
"Okay, you're the commander, and you're up to the shot."
The two of them floated away while maintaining this conversation.
Lu Feng first crawled out of the maintenance channel for the maintenance robot, although he was already a big child, but his body had not yet begun to jump, and he could still drill the size of the maintenance channel.
"There's an extra open container, which should be thrown into it." Lu Fengxian said to his sister, "Let's hurry! It's a long way to go to the A1 airlock, they can't float so fast with their tows, let's take a little less, go to the nearby A2 airlock, we will definitely be faster than them. ”
Lu Aoli asked worriedly: "Will it be seen by the computer?" ”
"Just be careful not to get caught by the computer's camera, we've been hiding for 15 weeks, and we're already familiar with all the cameras. Come! ”
The brother and sister helped each other and floated to the newly opened container.
Lu Aoli: "Isn't this an electrical appliance?" Doesn't throwing it affect the quality of life of people on Mars? ”
"Mars can also produce these, they just want to use famous brands! Since the commander has decided to throw it, then we are right. ”
Saying that, Lu Fengxian dragged out a washing machine: "The refrigerator is too big, we have a hard time pushing it, come, let's push this together, use the Z-shaped movement method!" ”
"Good!" Lu Aolei happily grabbed the end of the washing machine.
**
The A2 airlock is much closer than the A1, and the brother and sister are quite proficient in using the Z-shaped movement method, after all, they have been living in the warehouse for fifteen weeks, and practice makes perfect.
When she arrived in front of the airlock, Lu Aoli stopped her brother who was about to open the inner hatch: "Wait a minute! What if there's a real problem? Let's go to A1, the commander looks fierce, but the aunt is easy to talk to. ”
Lu Fengxian: "Do you recognize the military rank, that is only a second lieutenant, and she has won a silver star, she has been promoted a long time ago, she must have just graduated from school, and she is still a second lieutenant if she is not experienced enough, she should be called sister!" ”
"It's okay to call it, let's forget it! Go to A1! ”
"Why did you get here? You look at this airlock, all the indicators are green, there is no trace of welding, and the paint is very new! ”
Lu Aoli: "But the teacher of the summer camp, didn't that retired grandfather say that astronauts generally don't trust equipment with new paint?" ”
"That's all superstition! Believe in materialism! As he spoke, Lu Feng first pulled down the opening handle of the A2 airlock.
**
Wang Ping'an's headset sounded an alarm, along with a computer announcement: "The inner door of the A2 airlock was opened by an unauthorized person!" ”
Wang Ping'an scolded: "Grass! It's those two kids! Seal the outer gates! ”
Because I don't know if the children have entered, it is easy to lock the children inside the lockdown at this time, and it may even crush people during the blockade.
When the closure mechanism of the airlock is designed, it is specifically required to forcibly close even if it encounters hands, feet and even the human body - yes, even if the blocked limb is cut off, it must be closed. Because its most important task is to prevent the ship from losing pressure.
In fact, not only the human body, but most of the parts of the spacesuit are cut off by the airlock door, and this thing is designed this way.
Therefore, Wang Ping'an did not dare to close the inner gate, so he could only lock the outer gate, which was also the most correct disposal.
But there is an old saying among astronauts that has been passed down from the pre-astronautical era: "If something is going to go wrong, it's going to go wrong." ”
The computer continued to alarm: "The outer hatch could not be locked. It is judged to be a mechanical failure. Extravehicular maintenance robots are dispatched. ”
Wang Ping'an: "Change the task of the maintenance robot to plug the loophole." Dispatch the damage management robot, quickly! ”
"The damage management robot is in the process of being dispatched, and the dispatch is complete. It is expected to reach the outside of the airlock in five minutes. ”
The robots that usually carry out maintenance are different from the robots responsible for damage management, because the damage management robots generally do not have the opportunity to be dispatched, they will be kept in a relatively solid hangar, and the spacecraft's anti-meteorite system will focus on protection.
Otherwise, it would be "humorous" if the damage control robot was destroyed by a meteorite first.
Wang Ping'an: "You continue to A1, I'm going to A2 to clean up the two little bastards." ”
Angli: "I'll go too, in case I get hurt......"
"I'm also trained in first aid."
"And what if the girl gets hurt?"
Wang Ping'an did not object again, and the two of them used the engine to make an emergency stop, so that the transported electrical appliances stopped, showed the drone, and turned back along the passage.
**
Lu Feng closed the inner hatch of A2 first and said to his sister: "Look, how easy it is! ”
Lu Aoli looked suspicious: "That's not right, right?" Wouldn't just throwing this thing turn into a meteorite? Shouldn't we tear this thing down? At least it's easy to disassemble the anti-meteorite system. ”
Lu Fengxian said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, now the anti-meteorite system is very advanced, and a meteorite of this size can easily evaporate!" ”
Lu Aoli still looked worried, but Lu Fengxian had already pulled down the handle of the outer hatch.
The huge washing machine was squirted out with a pop.
**
"Meteorite Alert!"
As soon as the computer reported, Wang Ping'an said: "Mao's meteorite is a household appliance thrown by the children, and it is irradiated by laser!" Don't bother the people behind you! ”
Angli looked at the angry Wang Ping'an: "At least nothing happened now, don't be so angry......"
"You're not angry because you're a newcomer, I know, I know what space is all about!" Wang Ping'an glared at Angli, "I'm going to beat them later, don't stop it!" Even if I have to punish them behind my back, I'm going to beat them up! I'm going to beat them like spinning tops in weightless space! ”
"This is a serious violation of military regulations, if you want to go to Centaur, you can't fight!"
"No, I'm going to fight!"
At this moment, the loss of pressure alarm sounded.
**
It happened in an instant.
Lu Feng wanted to close the outer hatch first, but at this moment, an accident happened.
It was just a small gap in the hatch that was not clear to the naked eye, but after the leak occurred, the airtight glue on both sides of the gap was blown out at once, and the gap became a long slit the thickness of a small thumb.
The strong pressure immediately pressed Lu Fengxian against the wall, and his nose hit the edge of the gap directly, and it broke with a click.
Immediately after that, his sister was also sucked in and hit him solidly.
His left hand was pressed down on the opposite joint, and it was dislocated in an instant.
He was about to scream, but his vocal cords had been squeezed into his mouth by the air in his body—
In the moment before losing consciousness, Lu Fengxian used all his strength to arch his body forward a little.
His nose was completely shaved off, and he was bleeding profusely.
But the good news was that the gap was perfectly blocked by his chest.
The force that pressed his sister disappeared in an instant, and the girl floated away from her brother-
Lu Aoli reacted immediately, struggled to grab the handle that closed the outer hatch, and pushed it up-
However, there was no response.
Lu Aoli cried and cried, and continuously pulled her hand down and up, but there was still no response.
Finally, she remembered that this was the time when it should be turned off manually. So I slapped the panic button next to it.
The bulkhead, covered with a manual handle, was sprayed up by explosive bolts.
The girl grabbed the handle and called for a specially designed force pedal, and then in despair she found that this thing was designed for adults, and an eleven-year-old child could not use these two pedals to exert force-
Lu Aoli was in a hurry, turned her body, stepped on the fire valve next to her, and used her strength to turn the handle-
However, this thing is not something that an eleven-year-old girl can push in the first place.
Lu Aoli was so anxious that she scolded: "Move! You're so moving! ”
At this time, a strong hand grasped the girl's small hand, and the next moment the huge disc turned with a clatter.
The loss of pressure alarm has finally stopped.
Wang Ping'an's face turned pale, and Angli rushed towards Lu Fengxian, who blocked the loophole with her body.
Lu Aoli shrunk her neck, covered her face and cried vigorously.
Angli: "His internal organs should have ruptured, and his stomach acid and bile should have flowed all over his body." I can only prolong his life as long as I can. ”
Lu Aoli shouted: "Impossible! Isn't modern medicine all that can be saved as long as there is no brain death? ”
Wang Ping'an said solemnly: "It is in a place with complete medical facilities. You should say that a person whose internal organs are completely ruptured can still rely on the standing first-aid equipment on the spaceship to hang his life for a period of time, which has fully demonstrated the bull fork of modern medicine.
"Space is like that, and those who despise him, will be despised by it. It's very fair, that's the equation. ”
