Chapter 487 Situation
Moon surface, Zu Chong's crater.
A blue planet hangs motionless in the sky. The surrounding light is dim and gray. A crawler-type special space vehicle is extending a long drill bit and aiming at a solid rock.
On the space vehicle, two astronauts wearing umbrella shield logos were sitting on their chests.
"Ai Qingxiu, hang up the phone quickly. Drilling will officially start soon!" the male astronaut responsible for operating the drilling operation reminded: "I don't know what you have to talk about with the insurance salesperson on Earth?"
Ai Qingxiu let out a long sigh and said into the headset: "Manager Shi, if nothing happens, I will start saving the earth."
"If we all survive, I will consider the insurance you mentioned."
"goodbye!"
...
After hearing that the call was hung up by the ground command center, Ai Qingxiu asked curiously: "Command center, why did you answer this harassing call?"
The radio waves traveled back and forth at a distance of 405,696 kilometers.
"This is the command center, A12 installation team. You have been on the moon for a month. According to the established plan, you will stay for another month."
"Are you homesick?" A clear and sweet voice came from the headset.
This voice sounds so familiar... Ai Qingxiu frowned: "I want to..."
As she said that, she couldn't help but raise her head, and glanced at the blue planet above her head. Her home was there, but she couldn't touch it.
She is a new generation of astronauts trained by the Moxing Project, and her major is astronautics. Originally, according to the subject plan, she needed three years of study before she could work in space.
Unexpectedly, the "Apocalypse" suddenly came, and all the students of the Moxing Project were recruited in advance. Ai Qingxiu and his companion Meng Dezhong were sent to the moon by the Navigator spacecraft to perform the task of setting up a deep space antenna. This man who is aspiring to contribute to the human space industry,
The little girl who dedicated the rest of her life was overjoyed and signed her name on the notice without any hesitation.
Conceivable and actual are two different things.
The desolation of the moon exceeded Ai Qingxiu's imagination. It was always dark, and as far as the eye could see, there were only craters and gravels of different sizes.
Coming from a metropolis with bright lights and flashing neon lights to this desolate place, the psychological gap was huge. During this month, she persisted entirely by her own will.
"Home" evokes thousands of thoughts in Ai Qingxiu:
I wonder if mom will take care of long-eared cats...
The water in the fish tank needs to be changed every three days. Did Dad remember...
Is the hot dry noodles downstairs still open? Is it free to add an egg...
My sister and her boyfriend are planning to get married during the Spring Festival this year. I don’t know that under the current situation...
...
"Then do you know what the humans on earth are currently doing?" A clear and sweet voice from the headset interrupted her thoughts.
"What are you doing..." Ai Qingxiu glanced at the black moon rock not far away, "Of course you are going to work, can you still take a spaceship to the moon for vacation like me?"
"I..."
She stopped suddenly, remembering who the owner of this familiar voice was.
...It’s Miss Xia Qing!
She was shocked. Although Deputy General Manager Fang Lanshan was responsible for the daily launch plan of the Navigator, all employees of Mozi Technology knew that Miss Xia Qing was Professor Li Mo's right-hand man and had been highly used over the years.
She hesitated: "Are you... Miss Xia Qing?"
"Ha..." the clear and sweet voice paused, "Congratulations, you guessed it right!"
"According to Professor Li Mo's instructions, today I will inform you, the Mozi Technology astronauts working in space, about the current specific situation on Earth."
"Test the channel now."
"Mars A11, received?"
"receive!"
"Moon's a12, got it?"
Ai Xiuqing quickly replied: "Received?"
"Mercury's a13 received?"
"receive!"
...
"Venus a18 received?"
...There was a burst of noise from the headset, and after a long time, "Copy that!"
Ai Qingxiu knew that Venus was too far away and communication signals were interfered by the strong magnetic field around it.
"Now I will introduce to you the actual situation of the earth." Xia Qing sighed: "Currently, the overall situation in our country is stable. Although panic triggered a rush of people to buy, due to sufficient material preparations, there was no comparison.
Big turmoil.”
"Factories and business districts are operating normally, people go to and from get off work as usual, and students go to and from school as usual."
"The good news is that housing prices in major cities have dropped dramatically. House prices in Yanjing have dropped by 20%. However, this news is of little use to our employees at Mozi Technology."
"Because Mozi Technology distributes welfare housing."
...
A burst of laughter came from the headset. Although Ai Qingxiu had just been promoted to a full-time employee, she had already been assigned a junior room, which made her classmates at the same time envious.
"But!" Xia Qing's tone suddenly became serious, "The situation in Europe and North America is not optimistic."
"Various shooting incidents and riots involving vandalism, looting, and looting are happening one after another. Although the foreign media are all trying to whitewash the situation, according to the information sent back by our Mozi Technology flagship store."
"The public security in those places has reached the point of chaos. Many thugs shouted doomsday flags and looted wantonly on the streets in broad daylight. However, the local law enforcement agencies turned a blind eye, and some police officers even joined the rioters.
.”
"According to incomplete statistics, the number of people dying in riots every day in North America has reached 100,000. The number of burned buildings has reached thousands. Large cities have long been protected by heavily armed police, and the capital of country M has also implemented
Martial law was declared.”
"What's even more serious is that the riots destroyed the material supply system. In big cities such as Los Angeles and New York... there was starvation. Hospitals were closed one after another, and the rich took helicopters to fly to a hidden island in the Pacific. It is said that there
There is a super doomsday bunker more than 5,000 meters deep underground, which stores enough things for 200,000 people to live for 100 years."
When Ai Qingxiu heard this, a feeling of anger arose in her heart. The arrival of the alien spacecraft may very well mean the end of mankind. At this critical moment, all mankind should join hands to tide over the difficulties. Unexpectedly, foreign countries
Those rich people are actually preparing to abandon their former money-making "tools" and prepare to hide in bunkers and continue their lives of extravagant wealth.
"In view of the worsening situation abroad, Professor Li Mo has decided to temporarily close all Mozi Technology flagship stores and bring back staff. At the same time, the continued sales of Mozi batteries and quantum chips to foreign countries will be suspended."
