Chapter 8 The Stars Are Moving

"Director Zhou!"

Just then, a scientist pushed open the office door.

He ran to Zhou Zhezhi in small steps, and said excitedly: "Ghost! The ghost pushes the moon away! ”

His voice enters everyone's ears through a simultaneous interpretation system.

Everyone was stunned.

"The distance between the Earth and the Moon is expanding, and it's been going on for a few minutes," the scientist explained. ”

His face couldn't hide his excitement.

The ghost was different this time, it was too persistent, and it didn't mean to decay at all, as if it was going to kick the moon away in one go.

Zhou Zhezhi hesitated: "Is this news true?" ”

The scientist replied, "Absolutely!" ”

He only came to report the news to Zhou Zhezhi after confirming that the data was correct.

"The same observations are coming from the space station!"

"If the current speed of propulsion can be maintained, fifteen minutes at most, the distance between the Earth and the Moon will return to a safe range!"

The scientist said, his brows could not hide his excitement.

"Good good ......"

Zhou Zhe was full of praise.

At this moment, the tight strings in his heart loosened.

Humanity is saved.

As for what a ghost was, he didn't want to delve into it at the moment, because this ghost was beyond the scope of human exploration.

"Commander-in-Chief!" Zhou Zhe turned his wheelchair straight, "Let the people on the moon stop, they don't need to detonate the nuclear bomb!" ”

The words of the scientists, the commander-in-chief also heard.

But he shook his head.

"I'm sorry, sir!" He said in a tough tone, "I can't give such a hasty order!" ”

Zhou Zhezhi was slightly stunned.

"I don't know this guy at all, I don't know what he's talking nonsense!" The commander-in-chief scoffed and said, "What ghost pushes the moon, it's ridiculous!" ”

The ghost is a secret that only the scientists and politicians involved in the project know about.

The commander-in-chief was not among them.

Zhou Zhe straightened his eyebrows and locked tightly.

There are only a few minutes left, and if the astronauts on the moon are not notified in time to stop the detonation, then the team of astronauts with the most courage and dedication of mankind will be wiped out.

"Take your president's call."

Suddenly, Hao Xiaoxi raised his mobile phone.

Zhou Zhe glanced at Hao Xiaoxi in surprise, he didn't notice when Hao Xiaoxi called the other president.

"Your president has also ordered you to stop the detonation program."

Hao Xiaoxi emphasized: "Please stop immediately! ”

The commander-in-chief took the phone suspiciously, and he put the earpiece next to his ear, and after a few seconds, his face changed dramatically.

"Yes! I understand! ”

"Okay!"

"Do it right away!"

The commander-in-chief returned the mobile phone to Hao Xiaoxi, he glanced at Hao Xiaoxi deeply, and then said loudly: "Immediately stop the nuclear bomb detonation plan, and tell the space station that there is no need to detonate the nuclear bomb for the time being!" ”

"Yes!"

......

Zhang Peng sat on the lunar soil with his back to a nuclear bomb.

When death came, he suddenly felt a little emotional, he thought to himself, sitting on the moon with a nuclear bomb - no one could do this before, and there will be no moon for people to do this in the future.

There is no one before, and there is no one after.

To be able to do such a thing in this life is not in vain!

"Detonate the countdown, two minutes."

A cold, synthetic sound came from the headphones, pulling his mind back to reality.

No one spoke on the communication channel.

There was a dead silence, and everyone was looking back on their lives like a marquee.

"Detonate countdown, one minute."

"Brother."

Maozi pilot Nov suddenly spoke.

"I didn't embarrass Mr. Wang."

Nove and Zhang Peng were classmates.

They studied together, worked together, and now they are going to die together on the moon.

Zhang Peng muttered, "Why is a minute so long?" ”

Isn't this torture?

"You don't say a word?"

Nov asked.

It's the last minute, and if you don't say a few words, you won't have a chance in the future.

"Don't you usually talk a lot?"

Nov teased.

Zhang Peng smiled, his mood gradually relaxed, and he decided to calmly welcome the last minute.

He muttered, "yes, it's time to say something." ”

"Say something?"

He had a lot to say, but he didn't know where to start.

Nov sighed: "It's a pity, it's not ......"

"Urgent notice!"

A high-pitched voice suddenly sounded in the communication channel, interrupting Nov's melancholy words.

"Mission paused! Don't detonate a nuclear bomb! ”

Zhang Peng was stunned.

Task paused?

Is this an order from the space station?

But don't be anyone who can't bear the pressure of death and babble gibberish in the communication channel to delay the chance to save the planet......

"I'm the Commander!"

"Repeat!"

"Don't detonate a nuclear bomb!"

"I just received news from the ground, the situation has changed, the mission has been suspended, the countdown has stopped, and all the astronauts are on standby!"

The communication channel resounded with the brisk "Canon".

When he heard the sound of the piano, Zhang Peng finally confirmed that it was an order from the space station, because only the space station had permission to play audio files in the communication channel.

He stared blankly at the remote control in his hand.

"Remember! Don't detonate a hydrogen bomb either!"

The commander humored.

"And ......"

Zhang Peng was no longer listening to the commander's speech, he entered a state of brain fog, and the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe surged into his brain, making his whole person crispy.

At the last minute, it was said that there was no need to detonate a nuclear bomb......

It's scary!

Zhang Peng showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Old Nov, do you hear that?"

"We can go back!"

He said excitedly.

Nov replied even more excitedly: "Of course I heard it!" I'm not deaf! ”

"Turn off the safety of the nuclear bomb and put away the remote control." The Commander said slowly, "If nothing else, the station will be delivering some supplies to you in half an hour. ”

"There's a base nearby."

"You'll have to stay there for a while, and then get back to the station in batches."

The space station's vehicles are almost exhausted, and there is no way to transport all three hundred astronauts back to the space station at once.

"Great!" Zhang Peng said excitedly, "We don't have to die, by the way, what did you just say?" ”

Zhang Peng's hands kept trembling.

He carefully put the remote control in the open space next to him, far away from him, for fear that he would accidentally touch the trigger and die in a blur.

Haha, it's good to be alive!

Nov laughed and scolded: "I say! Go back and take your kid to Baikal for salmon fishing! ”

"Isn't Lake Baikal frozen?" Zhang Peng complained with a smile, "You're too insincere, you might as well ask me to masturbate!" ”

......

Over the next few days, the distance between the Earth and the Moon continued to expand, and astronauts on the Moon returned to the space station one after another.

The lunar crisis is over.

Humanity paid a huge price in this catastrophe, including two of the most prominent scientists of the 550 project, Ma Zhao and Tu Hengyu, who both died underwater.

Until the last moment of their lives, they were still working hard for the launch of the Beijing root server.

They successfully completed their task.

The Beijing root server was successfully launched before the end of the countdown, and although it did not come in handy because of the appearance of the "ghost", the spirit of Tu Hengyu and Ma Zhaoshe still touched many people.

The coalition government recovered their remains and held funerals for them and others who died in this crisis.

The sun rises as usual, and everything seems to be back on track.

But before humanity had time to catch its breath, a new problem arose in front of it.

"Report!"

"We found that a lot of the stars have changed their positions and they seem to be ....."

"On the move?"
