"Do you want to go over immediately, or can we wait another ten minutes?" Huo Shaoheng raised his wrist and looked at his watch.
Gu Nianzhi's stomach might not be very good, and Huo Shaoheng didn't want her to go see the "Great Scientific Discovery" on an empty stomach.
To Huo Shaoheng, Gu Nianzhi's health was more important than watching the "once-in-a-lifetime wonder".
However, Song Jinning obviously didn't think that much.
She probably didn't know that Gu Nianzhi had slept until ten o 'clock, so she said eagerly and excitedly over the phone, "Don't delay! The opportunity is fleeting. If you wait for ten minutes, you might not be able to see it! That's such a pity! "
Song Jinning was so excited, and Huo Shaoheng was also interested to see it.
He held his phone and thought for only a second before making a decision.
He looked up at the driver and said, "May I ask if you can help Cereus buy breakfast from the restaurant and send it to the giant circular pit? I'll take Cereus to the car over there. "
He pointed at the car brought by the Huaxia Empire's researchers.
Although he didn't know who those people were, he could tell that they were also going to watch the "once-in-a-lifetime spectacle" from the way they were talking to each other.
The driver smiled and agreed. He quickly got into the jeep and drove to the restaurant.
Vladimir, who was sitting in the car, was dumbfounded. He glared at the driver and said, "I'm still in the car! Why are you driving already?! "
He still wanted to see the scientists' new discovery!
The driver chuckled and said, "Let's go to the restaurant to buy breakfast first. You can't wait for ten minutes?
"Ha! Why didn't you say that to those two people just now! "Vladimir was so angry that he pounded on the car window." Go over there! Go over there right now! "
"What are you arguing about? If you keep arguing, I'll throw you out. " The driver glanced at Vladimir from the corner of his eye. "Don't think that just because you're my boss, I won't dare to throw you out."
"Yes, you're the best! I'm not the first boss you've thrown out of the car! "Vladimir was furious.
The middle-aged driver couldn't stay in other departments because of his careless temper and offended a lot of people.
However, people like him kept making small mistakes and didn't make big mistakes. Even if they wanted to make a big deal out of it, they couldn't catch him. In the end, they were sent back to Vladimir.
"It's good that you know." The middle-aged driver winked proudly, almost angering Vladimir to the point of having a heart attack.
He was about to forcefully grab the steering wheel from the middle-aged driver when he suddenly heard his cell phone ring.
He took it out and saw that it was a call from the political department at the KGB headquarters.
Vladimir glared at the middle-aged driver and gestured for him to "keep quiet" before picking up the phone.
"Comrade Vassily, what can I do for you?" Vladimir's voice could be said to be very flattering.
When the driver heard "Wassily", he immediately thought of the head of the KGB's political department who always looked at people with a sinister smile. He didn't dare to speak again.
On the other side of the phone, Wassily said in a bureaucratic tone, "Lieutenant General Vladimir, our department has recently reviewed your application for Major Lina's promotion to lieutenant colonel."
So it was this matter.
Vladimir heaved a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off his forehead. He smiled and said, "Oh, yes, I did apply. How is it? When will it be approved?
"Well …" Wassily dragged out his voice. "The political department has decided to continue the assessment."
Vladimir: "…"
"She still needs to be assessed? Isn't it enough that we've assessed her for seven or eight years? " Vladimir was angry. "Her achievements are obvious to all. What is there for the political department to be worried about?! She's our most loyal soldier! Aren't you afraid that your soldiers will be disappointed by your refusal?! "
On the other end of the phone, Wassily was still smiling, as if he wasn't affected by Vladimir's anger at all.
He smiled and said, "Of course we've seen her results. Otherwise, we wouldn't have accepted your application and let her review it."
The review of the political department at the KGB headquarters was as strict as the political review of the Huaxia Empire. They also had to check four generations of people and relatives within five generations.
It could be said that the Huaxia Empire's political review procedures and system were learned from Russia..
Vladimir thought of their strict and meticulous political review and temporarily calmed down. He said, "I know that you guys think highly of her, so I don't understand. What do you mean by making this call? Is there something wrong with her family background? But if there's something wrong with her family background, she won't be able to enter the KGB at all. "
Wassily sighed softly and said, "That's where we're in a dilemma. There's nothing wrong with her family, but when we reviewed it, we found that in the years she's been in the KGB, all her relatives have died … "
Vladimir: "…"
"… and they were all normal deaths, not abnormal deaths. Don't you think it's strange? How did all the people in her family die in just a few years? "Wassily was a very suspicious person.
Although it turned out that most of his suspicions were groundless and that he had wronged a lot of people, there were also a few facts that proved that his suspicions had indeed helped them find the loopholes and save a lot of operations.
That was why Wassily, who had no background, was able to sit firmly in the top position of the political division.
Vladimir sneered, "Comrade Wassily, I'd believe you if you said that to someone else, but don't you feel embarrassed when you say that to Lina? She only has one mother as her immediate family, and she has no other relatives. I know that her mother died of illness three years ago, and I even accompanied her home to attend the funeral. So when you say that all her relatives are dead, don't you think you're deliberately misleading others? "
Wassily laughed dryly and said slowly, "That's another problem. Her previous information always said that she only had one mother, but we later found out that her father was actually still alive and working as a bartender in a bar in Sochi. "
Vladimir was stunned for a moment. "Really? You know about that too? How did you find out? "
"… just a year after her mother died, her father came home and found that his wife had died of illness. Only then did we know that Lina had a father …"
Vladimir was speechless again.
"Then we checked the DNA of Lina and her father and confirmed that they were not related by blood," Wassily said and paused deliberately.
Vladimir's face turned pale. "And then?"
"Haha, and then nothing! The man said that Lina wasn't his biological daughter to begin with. She was the child of her mother with someone else, and he only married her mother after Lina was born. "
"F * ck! Isn't that a stepfather?! Do you have to f * cking go through so many twists and turns?! "Such a big gasp was torturing Vladimir to death.
Wassily chuckled. "Lieutenant General Vladimir, you're paying so much attention to her. Do you have feelings for Lina? Have you fallen in love with her? "
Vladimir's heart felt like it was on a roller coaster. He had almost fainted just now, and now Wassily had thrown a heavy bomb at him.
He held onto the handle of the car door and felt that he might have to die here today.
"Comrade Wassily, if you have something to say, just say it. If you keep me in suspense, I'll curse you not to be promoted!" Vladimir was the second-in-command of the KGB, but he was being tormented by the people from the political department. It could be said that it was too much.
Wassily coughed in embarrassment and stopped teasing Vladimir. He said, "Alright, I'll make it short. I called you this time because the political department feels that since Lina has become Lieutenant General Vladimir's sweetheart, for the sake of stricter security, we've decided to raise the standards for Major Lina's review."
"You can interrogate her however you want," Vladimir said vaguely. He actually didn't deny his feelings for Lina.
Wassily was even more relieved. He nodded and said, "Okay, I've already recorded and archived this call as one of the materials for the review. We will conduct a further assessment of Comrade Lina in the next few days. I hope you can cooperate with us. "
Vladimir's face scrunched up when he heard that. "Operation? What operation? Don't do anything rash. We're on a mission! "
"Don't worry, we know what we're doing. This time, we're killing two birds with one stone. Just cooperate with the headquarters' operation. "After Wassily finished speaking, he put Vladimir on another more confidential phone call.
From that phone call, someone told Vladimir about the method and content of the review of Lina.
Vladimir listened for a long time and bargained for a few more steps. Finally, he finalized the final review content.
As long as Lina could pass this final review, not only would she be successfully promoted to lieutenant colonel, but Vladimir wouldn't need to be reviewed if he wanted to marry her in the future.
Of course, Vladimir wouldn't refuse such a win-win situation.
After hanging up the phone, he whistled as he followed the driver to the restaurant in the resort villa. He bought two of the best breakfasts and brought them over.
..
Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng sat in the car of the Huaxia Empire's researchers and arrived near the giant circular pit first.
Yesterday, Gu Nianzhi had only looked down at the giant circular pit from a nearby hillside. She felt that its shape looked very much like the blue hole in the Caribbean Sea.
Now that she was closer, she didn't feel that kind of similarity anymore.
There was only a huge, bottomless pit in front of her.
There seemed to be liquid at the bottom of the pit, because when she looked down, she could only see a dark blue mist lingering around it. There were shadows under the mist, but she couldn't see anything.
However, she couldn't see it with the naked eye, but the equipment could.
Song Jinning and the others worked with the Russian scientists and lowered several long ropes that were hundreds of meters long along the edge of the giant circular pit.
The long ropes were tied with cameras and sensors, so they could monitor the situation all the way down.
Song Jinning and the others brought their own small drone, which happened to carry four cameras and a sensor, and flew down from the middle of the giant circular pit.
This way, all sides of the giant circular pit were taken care of.
They had been observing the situation below the giant circular pit for several days.
There had been no movement for the past few days.
The giant pit was shrouded in clouds. There were no living animals or plants, not even microorganisms. It was dead and even quieter than a tomb.
It seemed that time had stopped here since the explosion more than a hundred years ago.
Until this morning, there was a sudden fluctuation in the giant pit.
The fluctuation was not obvious at first, but it was captured by the long rope and the sensors on the drone and transmitted back to the receiving instruments on the ground.
When the scientists noticed the fluctuation, the receiving instruments on the ground were already operating crazily, almost exceeding their load.
Song Jinning pointed at the regular jumping curves on the big screen in front of her and said excitedly, "Nianzhi, do you know what this is?"
Gu Nianzhi blinked. "… This is a wave curve?"
"This isn't a normal wave curve. This is almost exactly the same wave curve as the collision of two neutron stars observed by all blue planet scientists last year!" Song Jinning was pleasantly surprised as she pulled out another curve. "Look at this wave curve. Doesn't it almost match the curve here?!"
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
Alright, she didn't pay much attention to science news. She had only heard about this matter and hadn't done any in-depth research …
Of course, even if she went into "in-depth research", she wouldn't be able to figure it out.
"Don't you think this is a once-in-a-lifetime wonder?" Song Jinning explained to her excitedly, "The wave curve of the neutron star collision that everyone observed last year was observed with a large telescope. But the wave curve we got here was observed in this giant circular crater, without any telescope! "
Gu Nianzhi finally understood and asked curiously, "Yes, this is indeed too strange. I remember the news said that the collision of the two neutron stars actually happened 130 million years ago, so we also observed the astronomical phenomenon from 130 million years ago from here? "
