5 The cage of the town hall

Several giant tire marks hundreds of meters long were crushed on both sides of the double yellow line of the square, and the transport plane stopped slowly.

The fully armed soldiers in the cabin stood up one after another. Wu Qingchen was about to leave his seat, but Ji Mingming waved his hand and pointed to the depths of the cabin of the transport plane.

Near the long metal table there, the lively scene did not disappear with the plane's landing. More than a dozen people gathered around the curtains and displays, and spoke quickly as if everyone was arguing, and the same number of walkie-talkies never rested on their palms or shoulders.

A soldier, who was about the commander, traveled back and forth between the long metal table and the front of the cabin. The positions, postures, and angles of the weapons of nearly a hundred soldiers were adjusted again and again.

This situation lasted for a long time.

After all the weapons in the hands of fully armed soldiers were loaded and inspected at least five times, and each person's position was changed at least the same number of times, the hatch door finally opened.

No one moved.

At this time, the cabin was much quieter. Wu Qingchen was stuffed into an armored vehicle, surrounded by dozens of soldiers on all sides, unable to see anything, and only a few footsteps passed by near him and walked to the rear of the cabin.

"What's going on? I don't understand enough? Why are there still cars outside?"

"Director Liu..." The answer was a little embarrassed, "We have carefully studied this point. The location is too inappropriate. The transport plane can be said to be an emergency landing and the tanks enter the venue. This impact..."

“I will be responsible.”

"Director Liu, we are not afraid of taking responsibility! How much time have you given us in total? We only have time to evacuate this area. The noise is too big. Now there are many telescopes staring at this place..."

"Without a telescope, there is no sniper rifle? Can bulletproof cars block the bazooka?"

“Can affect…”

"Don't mention the influence to me. The order I received has no influence. There are only four words: absolute guarantee!... I'm responsible for this. You have two minutes left. It doesn't matter if there is no steel plate. Do you think the tank can't get to the steps?"

Fast footsteps.

Two minutes later, a brief vibration, several armored vehicles started at the same time and slowly drove out of the cabin along the ramp.

It was almost dusk, but there was a bright light near the square. The street lights, colorful lights on both sides, and the outer lights of the surrounding buildings were all turned on. Countless searchlights shone the surroundings of the square, and there were circles of military vehicles and groups of fully armed soldiers on all sides.

The road guardrail in the middle of the square has been pried open and piled up in a ball not far away. Following the road that was simply forcibly driven, the armored convoy and hundreds of soldiers following along the way stepped across the national flag platform, bypassing the people's heroes forever, and finally climbed the ladder of the Great Hall of the People along the paved steel plates.

Through an open door, the armored vehicles drove directly into the left hall of the Great Hall of the People. The soldiers hugged Wu Qingchen and quickly passed through several corridors, and finally stopped in a long corridor. Ji Mingming and a dozen other people surrounded Wu Qingchen and rushed into a small hall quickly. Until this time, everyone was obviously relieved.

No one asked Wu Qingchen to sit down, and there were no seats beside Wu Qingchen. There were several obvious push marks pointing to the corner on the ground. There was a large round table tiltedly, with flower pots, bottles and chairs upside down. In addition, the hall was empty, with only two closed doors standing next to two huge pieces of glass, and there were several sets of pulleys under the glass.

Director Liu, who had heard the sound of Wu Qingchen, whispered a few words to the intercom. The door was quickly pushed open a gap. A middle-aged man in a suit squeezed into the hall with his backhand and closed the door, blocking the noise of entering the hall with him.

The middle-aged man had thick eyebrows and square face, was tall and had a very fast pace. A soldier introduced him a few steps: "This is Mr. Wu Qingchen."

This introduction is a bit redundant. The middle-aged man stared at Wu Qingchen as soon as he entered the door, and his eyes hardly stopped on the other people.

The middle-aged man stood in front of Wu Qingchen and put out a whole lot of clothes that were neat and decent enough. He looked up and down at Wu Qingchen for at least half a minute before nodding for no reason: "Mr. Wu Qingchen, thank you all the way. I am Li Ziping, and I am responsible for cooperating with you to attend this meeting."

The middle-aged man in front of him looked familiar and his name was even more familiar. Wu Qingchen could be sure that he had seen it from the news, but he didn't remember his position and didn't know what to answer. Fortunately, Li Ziping just paused and continued: "Mr. Wu, the meeting is very important and hasty, and the participants are very complicated. You only need to talk to me, and you don't have to worry about other people's requests."

"Also..." Li Ziping pointed to the older soldier: "If there is any emergency, please follow Comrade Liu Tao's arrangements."

Wu Qingchen and Director Liu Tao both nodded, and Li Ziping looked around again, without any other problems: "Let's start."

Director Liu waved and signaled Wu Qingchen to stand beside two tall and long glasses. The two soldiers stepped forward and opened the door. A buzzing conversation immediately poured into the small hall, and the Great Hall of the People was displayed in front of Wu Qingchen.

Several soldiers held the glass and pushed out of the small hall. Wu Qingchen walked next to Li Ziping and Director Liu.

The moment the three of them appeared at the side door, the originally noisy venue immediately became silent. A few seconds later, a huge sound burst out violently. Most of them were concentrated on the first floor of the Great Hall, and there were almost no people on the second and third floors.

This is a voice from at least 3,000 people at the same time. The owner of the voice covers three colors: yellow, white and black, and the hair is even more colorful, with everything.

At this moment, these people's bodies were almost all leaning forward, and the eyes of three thousand pairs of eyes were concentrated behind two giant bulletproof glasses.

Figure in a wrinkled shirt and equally wrinkled trousers.

Perhaps these three thousand pairs of eyes were too focused, or perhaps these three thousand people did not hide their expressions. Wu Qingchen could feel that these three thousand pairs of eyes condensed almost all the intense emotions of human beings.

They seem to be satisfied, envy, expectation, and hatred, contempt, and fear; they seem to find a treasure, and they seem to see a pile of garbage; they seem to be looking up at an angel, and they seem to be hating a demon.

So far, this is the longest and most difficult part of Wu Qingchen's life.

This most difficult distance is about thirty or forty meters, which is the distance between the side door of the small hall and the only seat on the rostrum of the Great Hall of the People.

This only seat belongs to Wu Qingchen.

I must be crazy.

Even in the most arrogant dream, Wu Qingchen never thought that one day he would wear a wrinkled shirt and equally wrinkled pants, put on a layer of bulletproof vest and a layer of life jacket, and two pieces of bulletproof glass were erected in front of him. He stood in front of the only seat on the rostrum of the Great Hall of the People, and rows of people in front of him, regardless of whether the complexion of skin is yellow, white or black, and his face was filled with anxiety, panic, surprise, expectation, etc., and so on.

I must be crazy.

Wu Qingchen's mind was basically blank. I don't know how many times Li Xiaoping patiently signaled it before he was trembling and frightened. It can even be said that he put his butt on the only seat on the rostrum in a creepy manner.

After carefully adjusting the position and angle of bulletproof glass several times, the two soldiers pressed several keys on the instrument on one side of the glass, and several sets of brackets were placed at the bottom of the giant glass, and several drill bits extended from the pulley, which quickly drilled the floor of the Great Hall to make wood chips fly across.

"Everyone..." There was no audition, no courtesy, and a slight buzzing sound of the drill bit, Li Ziping took a microphone from the table in front of Wu Qingchen: "Now everyone is sitting here, it's the same reason. No matter how many questions you have, there are almost no answers we can confirm. We have done our best: this is Mr. Wu Qingchen, and it is most likely that you are friends who have met in the afternoon."

Have you met once in the afternoon? Is it my dream? Wu Qingchen couldn't help but turn his head and look right. Ji Mingming was abnormal and stood upright with a serious face, as if he heard what Wu Qingchen was thinking, and nodded gently to Wu Qingchen.

"We have determined the procedure just now, time is precious, and now we will start the final vote of the fifth agenda."

The venue, which had just been a little quieter, immediately burst out again.

Many people stood up excitedly, and a blonde woman on the right side of the Great Hall even took off her shoes and threw her to the rostrum, and made a loud voice with excitement.

Wu Qingchen couldn't understand a word, and looked at Director Zhang and Li Ziping. Both of them looked serious, without embarrassment or anger. Li Ziping waved his hand gently, indicating that Wu Qingchen didn't have to mind, "Miss Coles, this has passed the plan we agreed upon. Even if you don't respect our results for more than three hours, you must respect the facts... Yes, I understand that you respect... We... No, it is impossible for all humanity to now, and there is no time to postpone the vote because there are representatives who have not arrived at the venue..."

A louder sound.

"No, no, Miss Coles, Mr. Roport, all gentlemen and ladies! This does not mean that the citizens of these forty countries have been excluded from all mankind... No, absolutely no... Of course, they have not been expelled... Gentlemen, they will never miss the vote even if they step into the venue in the last second."

There is no sign of a stop or decrease in the sound wave.

Li Ziping had to raise his voice again: "If the representatives sent by these countries no longer have the possibility of arriving in time, these countries can also designate any citizen of the nearby country, China or other country now, or even any of them here to vote. As long as they fax a written authorization approved by the United Nations, the results of the vote will be valid. Please believe that the United Nations has made the greatest tolerance and efforts for this vote."

"Please be quiet now..." Li Ziping looked around the venue, no matter how effective his words were, "The United Nations Security Council Astronomical Event Conference entered the final process of the fifth agenda: a final vote on the confirmatory experiment of Mr. Wu Qingchen, the suspected subject of the astronomical event."

Confirmation experiment? Human experiment?

Wu Qingchen's heart beat rapidly, and Li Ziping continued: "As many representatives and Mr. Wu Qingchen just arrived at the venue, it is necessary for us to give a brief explanation for you on the fifth agenda."

"At 13:27:13 on May 8, 2012, the same astronomical phenomena appeared at the same time in the world, regardless of day or night, and at different latitudes and longitudes."

"The current research shows that the astronomical phenomenon is directly related to the observation subject, and the observation results obtained by different observers and observation instruments are completely consistent with the observation angle."

"In layman's terms, at the same time, the contents of everyone seeing in the eastern and western hemispheres, on the streets and on the top of the mountain are completely consistent, and there is no difference between the front and the side. The distance between any observing object and the astronomical phenomenon will always be maintained at about 355 meters. Through further testing by helicopters and submarines, we have determined that this distance will neither increase nor shorten, and will also appear in the water, because the refraction reflection of light is relatively blurred, and the experiments on other substances have also achieved certain results..."

Eastern Hemisphere... Western Hemisphere... The whole world...

It turns out that this is true, no one lied to me, it turned out that I had such an amazing dream at noon...

The faces that often appear in the TV news were recognized from three thousand faces, and Wu Qingchen's suspicion completely collapsed.

"Countries have confirmed that astronomical events far exceed the current scientific theoretical level on Earth, and the possibility of finding out the specific causes in the short term is not optimistic."

"At present, humans on Earth are facing more urgent problems: another event caused by the final part of the celestial phenomenon event, which is temporarily named 'Red Seal'. That is, the subject of the celestial phenomenon event was accidentally injured in the final part of the celestial phenomenon. When the red seal was produced, humans around the world produced the same red seal at the same time and in the same part of the same body, which directly caused multiple accidents and caused huge..." Speaking of this, Li Ziping frowned, looked away from the manuscript, paused before continuing to say: "...a certain loss."

"According to extensive investigations from various countries, so far, the most recent suspected subject of astronomical phenomena in the world is our country, a citizen of the People's Republic of China, Mr. Wu Qingchen."

The venue was boiling again, and thousands of people stood up at the same time, slapped the table, slapped the papers, and the loud noises of shouting once again formed, making Li Xiaoping's voice sound like a small boat moving forward in the wind and waves.

"...In order to be the most basic responsibility for all mankind, the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council unanimously agreed that it is necessary to further confirm the suspected subject of the astronomical event, Mr. Wu Qingchen, to determine the direct subject of the astronomical event as soon as possible, and to avoid the sadness of the red mark event due to the delay of the time due to the wrong object..." Some words in the manuscript made Li Ziping pause again and frown, "The adverse consequences will occur again."

"The idea of ​​the suspected subject of the astronomical event, Mr. Wu Qingchen, has rigorous theoretical and practical support: in most cases, the human body will be damaged to a certain extent at any time or in a certain extent. The most common situation is that clothing, shoes and sock fibers rub against the surface of the human body, causing trace amounts of skin damage on the surface and capillaries to rupture. This degree of subtle damage will basically not cause physical feelings, nor will it cause any direct adverse effects on the human body."

"The confirmatory experiment will be chaired by Professor Gu Feng of the General Hospital of the Navy of China and Professor Luo Nanying of the Cancer Hospital Affiliated to Beijing Medical University. The surgical method of minimally invasive skin laser treatment is adopted to open a shallow mouth of about 3 mm, the suspected subject of the astronomical event, Mr. Wu Qingchen's upper arm, and a shallow mouth of about 3 mm."

"In the previous three hours, the UN Security Council had urgently arranged 755 experimental surgeries in 27 countries around the world. 97% of volunteers said they did not have any physical feelings, and all volunteers did not have any adverse effects."

"Therefore, the United Nations Security Council put forward an agenda: conduct a definite experiment on the suspected subject of astronomical events, Mr. Wu Qingchen."

"In view of the particularity of the direct correlation between the astronomical events and the personal safety of all human beings, the method of voting this agenda has been adjusted to previous proposals. Regarding the voting rules of the agenda, you can read the documents on the table... You only need to read the top one, which is the result of the last discussion and sorting out half an hour ago."

Wu Qingchen's gaze immediately took back from the noisy venue, and turned around to the top of the document on the table in front of him.

"My gentlemen and ladies..." Li Ziping looked up at the clock: "It's 18:43 Beijing time on May 8, 2012, and there are 17 minutes left before the final vote... The phones on your desk can be used to contact the country."
