Chapter 588 Hawking's guess
In the blink of an eye, it was mid-August. The weather in Jiangcheng became hotter and hotter. The sun at noon was scorching the earth. Even the lake water was about to turn into steam. Subtle air refractions were produced on the lake surface, making people feel more dry and hot.
Liu Jinpeng has been in Jiangcheng for almost ten years, but it is still difficult to adapt to the summer here. He now goes to the company headquarters to handle official duties every morning, goes home for lunch, and rests at home in the afternoon and does not go out. He sweats a little when he moves on in the hot days. Fortunately, the central air conditioner is turned on at home, otherwise he will not be able to stay anywhere.
Because the weather was hot, the three girls at home were walking around in vests and shorts, and naturally they were exposed frequently. Not only that, Liu Mei also deliberately bent down in front of Liu Jinpeng to pick up things. However, this guy could only watch and pretended not to care, so he had to secretly become ruthless in his heart.
Meiling and Meihua are about to start school in half a month. She seized the last time to play around and play outdoors. In the morning, she took advantage of the cool weather. Sometimes she was playing sand, sometimes swimming, and sometimes fishing by the lake. In the afternoon, when Liu Jinpeng returned home, they pestered their brother to play games, or just hide and seek. At the end of the evening, they finished writing their daily observation diary to go to bed. They lived a very happy life.
However, the situation today is a bit special. Meiling and Meihua are honestly playing with pets upstairs, while the living room downstairs is given to several big girls.
Zhang Yu was also afraid of heat. He was drinking it with an electric fan in the house and carrying iced mung bean soup. While drinking, he complained: "Jiangcheng is really the most inhabitable city. It has been several days since the beginning of autumn, but it is still so stuffy."
Ye Ling also drank it with a glass of iced orange juice. There were so many things at home that she wanted to drink after sweating. She deeply agreed with Zhang Yu’s statement and muttered: “Brother Yixiu really knows how to choose a place. He actually lives in such a city. If he lives by the beach, he can play in the water now.”
Liu Jinpeng was also amused and crying. He shook his head and smiled, "Can I blame me? This province is here, unless my parents are not from western Hubei. Then I can not live here. Besides, I still study here in college."
Liu Mei immediately continued: "That's right, what do you mean by Ye Zi? If Xiaopeng didn't study at Jiangcheng University, then the boss would be gone."
Ye Ling suddenly bulged her mouth and said the words in her heart: "Liu Liu, you are really sitting on Diaoyutai. Anyway, you can meet you no matter where Brother Yixiu goes to school, right?"
Zhang Yu didn't want to take on such a conversation. She thought secretly that if Liu Jinpeng didn't study at Jiangcheng University and didn't open a company in Jiangcheng, she probably wouldn't have joined Titanium Star Group, and it would be even more impossible for her to have any relationship with him. Speaking of which, Zhang Yu was dug up from the Ministry of Commerce because of Li Xiwen. If Liu Jinpeng couldn't meet Li Xiwen, she would naturally be fine.
It is precisely because Zhang Yu felt guilty towards Li Xiwen that as long as Liu Jinpeng didn't speak, she usually decided to consider the princess's idea. She was also very clear about Liu Mei's dissatisfaction, but she did not report it. She probably hoped that her family would be harmonious and not cause trouble for Liu Jinpeng.
Liu Mei smiled and said, "Xiaopeng and I are destined to be separated. Then again, Xiao Yezi, aren't you the same? With your brother Ikki's kind heart, you will always know each other."
Ye Ling laughed at the topic involved, but she dared to say anything: "In this way, it is normal for me to compete for favor with Liu Liu, because we are both the people Xiaopeng is destined to meet." This girl was really not ashamed. After she finished speaking, she covered her face happily and pretended to be shy.
Liu Mei was angry that Ye Ling was indifferent to the innocence all day long, and grabbed her ponytail and said, "You girl can pretend to be cute and compete with me for favor. I have this. Do you have it?" After she said that, she pointed to her head. Smart business talent is what she is proud of, and it can hit Ye Ling hard, which is not well under the management of several small stores.
Ye Ling was not stupid either. He looked up to his strengths and avoided his weaknesses and said contempt: "Everyone said that he had big breasts and no brains. I think you are a typical example." After saying this, she ran away. Liu Mei didn't catch her and got up and chased her upstairs.
Liu Jinpeng hurried over to comfort Zhang Yu and said, "Xiaoyu, don't take it to your heart. Both of them are stingy and sucking, but they actually don't mean you."
Zhang Yu has been in contact with the two girls for so long, of course she knew that she was still a little sad just now, but Liu Jinpeng immediately came to comfort her, which made her feel a little sweet. Zhang Yu didn't say anything, hugged the man's arm and tilted his head and asked, "I'm fine. I was interrupted by the two of them just now. What do you think of those reports?"
The report Zhang Yu said was the most eye-catching speculation after the disappearance of the alien fleet. The famous scientist, Hawking, who was paralyzed all over, said in a private meeting: "In my opinion, the alien fleet that appeared this time is just a warning."
A friend asked him what kind of warning he was, and Hawking said: "Warning us, soon a more terrifying enemy will appear."
His chain of reasoning is like this. First of all, the fleet is complex and hostile. It stayed near Saturn's halo 1.2 billion kilometers away from Earth for about a week without any movement. As some people have speculated, they are likely releasing static electricity accumulated from long-distance travel and collecting necessary resources from the asteroid belt.
Hawking further speculated that this joint miscellaneous fleet is likely to lack enough time, otherwise they could come to the earth to ask the earth's government to provide the necessary help. With their strength, they could do this. If there is a department like the unified earth government, they would definitely be willing to resolve the problem peacefully.
In this case, it would take less than half a month to meet the supply needs of such a fleet with the mobilization ability of the Earth government. The reason why aliens are unwilling to come to Earth is that they are unwilling to negotiate with the Earthlings. This wastes too much time, but it is not necessary to capture the Earth, and they even have deeper intentions.
So the aliens urgently stopped near Saturn's halo, releasing static electricity while collecting resources. Once the static electricity was almost released, they didn't care about replenishing more resources and ran away in a hurry. Why is this? Hawking speculated that this fleet was actually fleeing, and there were even more terrifying enemies behind them, so they had to hurry up and had no intention of negotiating with the earth.
If this inference is true, then the fleet that followed will be even larger, which will definitely be a disaster for the earth. If the previous group of joint fugitive fleets are still objects of negotiation, then the subsequent group of fleets may very well belong to a huge Galaxy Empire, and what they only demand will be surrender or conquest, rather than equal negotiations.
Hawking even pointed out that the previous fleet had their sinister intentions when they did not occupy the earth. They hoped to use the intact earth to lure the tracking fleet to spend more time staying in the solar system, so that they could leave more time for them to escape. It was rare to encounter a smart planet without much resistance, but was gently let go, and there was no explanation except for such a vicious plan.
After such speculation was spread, according to incomplete statistics, the number of suicides in various regions around the world increased again. Fortunately, governments of various countries soon came forward to stabilize people's hearts, but no major disaster occurred. In any case, these are still speculations. Although they seem to be reliable speculations, speculations are always speculations. As long as they are speculations, there is a possibility of error. There are still many people holding a glimmer of hope, hoping to not encounter the terrible alien destroyers.
A group of people around the world have begun to criticize a probe called Voyager One launched by the United States, believing that this is the main culprit that caused humans to be discovered by aliens. When the probe was launched, perhaps with beautiful hope, many image data were preserved on it, including photos of planets on the Earth and other solar system, human reproductive organs and descriptions, etc.
Not only are these behaviors criticized at present, but some science fiction fans have also begun to promote the "dark forest" theory, believing that this behavior of actively exposing themselves is out of reach. Some so-called military scientists also advocate that the current military level of the earth is not enough to defend the earth itself, just like a child holding money in a downtown area, which will only attract more covetousness.
With the disappearance of the alien fleet and the emergence of various theories and conspiracy theories, some cultists began to take the opportunity to promote the doomsday theory. A cult called "The Doomsday of the Universe" has a large number of believers all over the world. Its doctrine blatantly declares that once the alien fleet arrives, only the ancient evil god worshipped by the religion can save the world, because this ancient evil god is actually the aliens visited in ancient times.
There were a lot of such news on the newspapers Zhang Yu brought, and Liu Jinpeng was very amused and amused. If we follow the doctrine of the "Doomsday of the Universe" religion, then Yiti is the only messenger of the ancient evil gods in their minds, because those "ancient evil gods" and the Titanium Star people have all died.
Liu Jinpeng has never had a good face for these cultists. Cultists with brains are sinister or have ulterior motives, while cultists without brains seek death to seek benevolence. However, he did not expect that Hawking would run out and say such words, which caused so many after the alien fleet disappeared. Having said that, ambitious people are everywhere, and using the existence of the alien fleet to achieve their own ulterior motives is inevitable.
Fortunately, the floating island on the sea is almost completed, and the rest of the work is to install weapons and debug equipment. After a while, he plans to go and see it himself. But now it is not possible. Liu Shuquan will soon return to Jiangcheng with Liu Jianguo and Wu Wenli, and he will definitely not be able to leave.
When the floating islands on the sea start to produce electricity, the plan can be gradually carried out. In another two months, the alien fleet will not stay in the aura of Saturn, but will go further. Under the slow pressure, Liu Jinpeng wanted to see if the countries on Earth can cooperate to some extent under pressure.
If you are honest, it will be fine. If there is a country that wants to make trouble, as long as it is a minority, it will not cause a big wave. Of course, if most countries still stick to their shortcomings, then Liu Jinpeng has a way to rectify them. (To be continued.)
