Chapter 224: Cherish the Present

"No way, under special circumstances, it's hell if you can still have a New Year's flavor."

Ma Ling replied.

The owner of the shop was also lazy, he walked over to add some water to the soup pot of the two, and then went back to his small bench and sat down, staring intently at his mobile phone to play.

"Brother Ma, aren't you going home for the New Year?"

Wang Siwen asked.

"I don't have anyone in my family anymore, I'm alone, I can spend the New Year anywhere."

Ma Ling raised his wine glass: "I take the sky as the quilt and the earth as the seat, as long as it is in China, everywhere is my home!" ”

"Hahaha, yes, yes, it's our home everywhere."

Wang Siwen smiled and smiled, tears came out of his eyes, and he couldn't help but reach out to wipe it: "After coming out to ride, I realized how beautiful our motherland is, there are so many scenery that I haven't seen, and there are so many cultural and historical things that I haven't witnessed with my own eyes, but all of this will cease to exist." ”

Historical books and historical relics can be relocated and left, but many local antiquities cannot be relocated and taken away, and all this will be gone after the end of the world.

Wang Siwen is thinking, if a child born after the end of the world, can he still understand what a blue sky and white clouds are? Do you understand what snow is? What is a forest? What is the sea and sand?

They may know about it from books and films, but they will never be able to see it with their own eyes and touch it.

Actually, why not?

Although these things were all there before, because of various scruples, he didn't achieve this kind of in-depth understanding, and he could only understand it from the video, what is the difference between it and the group of children after the end of the world?

The only difference is probably that he can regret it and realize it, and the children after the end of the day will not have such a chance to regret it.

They have no choice.

That's the saddest part.

"Drink."

Ma Ling silently poured Wang Siwen a glass of wine, "So, we have to cherish the present." ”

"yes, cherish the present."

Wang Siwen poured a glass of rice wine from Ma Ling and drank it all.

Outside, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, as if it would never end.

……

……

Here in the capital, it was also snowing heavily, and it was ten o'clock in the evening, and there were many fewer pedestrians and vehicles outside.

In order to cope with the apocalyptic disaster, the state not only imposed an annual limit on personal consumption, canceled a lot of luxury jewelry consumption, but also advocated frugality and fuel saving.

On the one hand, many people have left the capital, on the other hand, the driving restrictions have become more stringent, and some household gasoline cars have been scrapped in advance, and then there are restrictions on refueling private cars.

In all aspects, the vehicle has been greatly reduced, even if it is a new energy vehicle, the license plate issuance in the past six months has been many times stricter, and the difficulty is almost equivalent to the previous need for a fuel car license plate in the capital.

Yu Ze is not used to living in a place arranged by the state, but there are also many high-quality villa communities in the capital, and he chose one of the villas and became a resident of it.

"It's snowing so hard."

Yu Ze's return to the capital this time can be regarded as a "debriefing", and he personally reported on the state of study.

There is no doubt that his nearly four months of learning results are enough to be the learning results of other people's four years, especially in practice, ten professional astronauts are not as convenient as his special functions.

So much so that Hong Bin asserted that Yu Ze alone was enough to solve most of the engineering failures of the manned spacecraft, but it would be a burden to bring any more people.

At the same time, Yu Ze was busy while studying, and the busy work in space did not stop, forming a manned spacecraft that could sail to Neptune and then return, all kinds of technical problems were extremely terrifying, and the four major space agencies worked together to carry out two directions synchronously, one is to assemble the experimental spacecraft, and the other is to continuously improve the assembly in the experimental spacecraft test. According to the plan, the two ships will be completed simultaneously, one will be the main and the other will be in reserve, and if the main ship fails, the other spare ship can be started in time.

"It's almost Chinese New Year's Eve."

Yu Ze looked at the heavy snow falling, in addition to reporting on his work this time, there is another thing that needs to be completed, that is, in this difficult time, he will go to the Spring Festival Gala again to bless and reassure the people of the whole country.

I remember the last time I went to the Spring Festival Gala, Yu Ze was quite happy, a short year has passed, and he doesn't need to perform special functions to prove himself this time, he just needs to show up to calm people's hearts.

"Yes, it's almost Chinese New Year's Eve."

Liao Mu couldn't help but sigh behind him: "Time flies so fast. ”

"Officer Liao, aren't you going home?"

Yu Ze turned around: "I'll tell the above, so I'll give you a few days off." ”

Liao Mu hesitated and shook his head: "No need, I also think about the work here when I go home, so it's better not to go back." ”

"You are good at everything, but she is too dedicated, and although the work is important, the family affairs cannot be put down."

Yu Ze said.

Liao Mu smiled bitterly, didn't answer him, and asked him: "Mr. Yu, there are some things I shouldn't say, but ...... That girl has been looking for you so many times, are you sure you continue to avoid her? ”

This time it was Yu Ze's turn to smile bitterly, he frowned slightly, and his attention seemed to shift to the snowflakes floating in the air, "I've done many things to be sorry for her, I'm really sorry, and I misunderstood her, so I don't want to contact her anymore to hurt her." ”

"Mr. Yu, since it's a misunderstanding, then it's good to solve it."

Liao Mu wanted to speak and stopped.

Yu Ze glanced at him: "Officer Liao, don't look like that, as if I will sacrifice myself to save the world and not come back." ”

Liao Mu touched the back of his head in embarrassment, "This is not my opinion alone, your move this time is too risky." ”

Yes, it is estimated that few people are optimistic that he will return.

Even if Yu Ze can save the world half the chance, but the chance of going to Neptune and returning is not half of it, after several internal meetings, it is believed that the risk of manned spacecraft is too great, the chance of successfully reaching Neptune is 89%, and the chance of returning is less than 35%.

Yu Ze also knows this, with the help of the power of the future, either he succeeds or fails, and logically it will not cause fatal harm to him. The real danger comes from the backwardness of human spaceflight, which is not yet perfect for deep space travel.

"Since I'm taking the risk, do you think I should give up?"

Yu Ze said leisurely.

Liao Mu was silent, and after a long time, he said with difficulty: "Although emotionally I don't think you should take this risk, but ...... Intellectually I think you should go, even if your chances of success are only half as good, but it's too important for humanity. ”

"With your words, Officer Liao, you are already a good friend."

Yu Ze said: "At least most people's perception of me is that if I can save the world, it would be a great blessing to sacrifice me personally. ”
