Chapter 14 Chapter 13: Insights from Scientific Authorities

Moreover, looking at it as a whole, it doesn't look like a factory, the road is a flat and clean asphalt road, and the roadside is full of flowers, it looks like a hospital.I followed the person who led the way to the door of the factory office building. When I stepped on the stone steps and pushed open the glass door, the person suddenly asked me: "Are you Mr. Wesley?" I was about to answer him casually. I'm Wesley, but my sense of shock immediately reminded me not to speak out casually. At the same time, I also felt very strange in my heart. Because, I remember very clearly that when Jixiong Inoue contacted the engineer, he didn't tell who was coming to see him, let alone my name.

And just now, in the communication room, I just said that I would come to see the chief engineer, and I didn't say my name.Why did the word "Wesley" come out of this man's mouth? The man pushed open the glass door, and I followed him and walked in. The man did not turn around, but said: "I am the security guard stationed in this factory, because some very sophisticated instruments are produced here. , so there are security guards, Mr. Nelson has been here before you, and he expects you to come soon." The man said Mr. Nelson's name, but I couldn't believe him.I said "huh", neither affirming nor denying.He still didn't look back, walked ahead, stepped into the elevator, and I followed him in, asking, "Where is Mr. Nelson?"

The man smiled and said, "He? He has gone to the place he most wants to go." I suddenly became suspicious: "What do you mean?" The man said: "I'm just talking casually. In fact, I don't know where he is at all." I secretly blamed Nelson in my heart. I shouldn't have said so many unnecessary words to a factory security guard.But I immediately found that the man's words were very suspicious. Mr. Nelson is a man of finesse, far above me.Even I think it should not be done, how could he do it?I suddenly became suspicious of that man, but I couldn't think of any way to question him.While I was thinking about it, the elevator stopped, the man had already stepped out of the elevator, stopped in front of a door in the corridor, knocked twice, and said: "Mr. Kimura, your guest is here. "

A majestic voice came from inside, saying: "Please come in." The man turned around and asked me to open the door and go in. When I was in the reception room, because I didn't suspect this person, I naturally didn't pay attention to him. After I became suspicious of him, he kept his back to me. Until then, I quickly turned my head and looked at him. Take a look. When I saw it, my heart skipped a beat! On that person's face was an extremely detailed mask!And if I didn't have such a mask myself, I would definitely not be able to see this! At that moment, my heart jumped. Although I didn't know what happened, I knew that something was wrong. I said in a deep voice, "Aren't you going in?"

The man turned around and said, "I don't—" Before he could finish his sentence, I pinched the back of his neck in a lightning fast way, and when he raised his head, I put my left hand on his front neck again, making him unable to make a sound. The man stared at me with wide eyes, and made a "cluck" sound from his throat.At this time, I still don't know what happened to the accident, I just know that this person must be dealt with quickly. I put my knee on the man's lower back and knocked on the back of the man's head with my hand, and the man softened.

I took out a pistol with a suppressor in his coat pocket, leaned over the keyhole, and looked into the room. After looking at it, I couldn't help screaming secretly, "It's dangerous!" I gently lifted the man who had been knocked unconscious by me, and reached out to turn the handle of the door. Just now, I looked through the keyhole. Due to the small keyhole, I couldn't see the whole room, but what I saw was enough.I saw a middle-aged man with an angry face being pointed at a chair with a pistol and he was not allowed to move. I couldn't see who was holding the pistol, but I recognized the scowling man as the famous Japanese scientist Nobuki Kimura.It turned out that he was the chief engineer of this precision instrument factory.

I turned the handle and pushed the door open. When I pushed the door open about a foot, I suddenly pushed the fainted person, and the person's body fell straight forward, as if a person rushed into the room Same. As soon as that person was pushed in by me, I heard a "pop" sound, which was the sound of a pistol equipped with a silencer being fired, and through the cover of that door, I could already see clearly inside the house, there were three people in total, They were all armed, and I fired three shots in a row. It's definitely not me praising myself, those three shots are really "handsome" to the extreme!

Following the three sounds of "Pop, pat, pat", there are three sounds of "Pa pat, pat". The first two shots were of course my gunshots. The three shots were shot at the right forearms of the three men holding the guns. When their right forearms were bleeding profusely, they naturally moved their fingers, Three times, it was the sound of their pistols falling to the ground, and at the end, there was a "bang" sound, and the person who was pushed in by me fell to the ground. That person was just knocked unconscious by me, but now, he was shot by his companion and died unexpectedly.

Kimura Shin stood up immediately, and I raised the gun in my hand, and said to the three people: "Back up, stand in the corner!" The faces of the three men were pale, looking at the pistol in my hand, one of them seemed to want to pick up the pistol that fell on the ground with his left hand, but my muzzle stretched forward a little, and he immediately gave up that intention. The three of them retreated to the corner together. Nobuki Kimura had already grabbed the phone and said, "Are you the new security guard? Are you calling the police, or am I?" I hurried over, snatched the microphone from his hand, He got down and said, "Don't rush to call the police."

Shin Kimura looked at me with a very surprised look, I smiled and said, "I'm not the security guard of the factory, I'm your guest." Shinobu Kimura said "ah" and said, "You are the person that Mr. Inoue mentioned on the phone." I said, "Yes, I am that person. How long have these four people been here?" Shin Kimura bitterly said: "They have restrained me for half an hour. They said they will wait for a man named Wesley. Who knows what kind of guy that Wesley is." I kept a smile on my face and said, "Then Wesley is not some guy, it's me."

Kimura Shinobu let out an "ah", the expression on his face was extremely embarrassing.I asked the three people, "Which side are you from?" None of the three spoke. I sneered and said, "Okay, then I will notify the police." One of the three hurriedly said: "Wesley, it's better to settle the matter between us in private." I put my hand on the phone and said, "Okay, but I want to know which side you are from, you guys How did you know I was coming here?" The man said: "As soon as you fell into the hands of the Moon God Society, we knew about it. After you left Jingshang Jixiong's house, our people have been following behind you. If it wasn't for Shangfeng's order, we would have taken you back alive." If you hadn't, you'd have died many times already." As soon as I heard what the man said, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart. Just now, when I was eating in the small restaurant, Qingxin had already escaped the traces of all parties. Wait for me, if not for my cleverness, of course I would have fallen into their hands by now! I forced a smile and said, "Thank you for your mercy, are you going to chase that box back from me?" I have concluded that they are spies hired by a certain country's embassy, ​​so I said so bluntly.The expressions on the faces of the three people changed, and the person still answered me, "Yes." I sighed and said, "You guys are so powerful, you should know where that box is now!" The man said: "We only know how to follow orders, we don't know anything else." I said: "Okay, I can let you go back. If you see Shangfeng, you might as well tell him that I am now trying to find the whereabouts of that box. It doesn't matter whether he captures me alive or assassinates me." There is no benefit." The man said: "We must follow suit." I pointed to the dead man on the ground and said, "Can you take him out of the factory without being noticed?" The man hurriedly said: "Yes! Yes!" I waved my hand and said, "Leave the gun here, let's go." The three people were obviously relieved, and one of them lifted the dead man up. I still watched them closely until they left the room and entered the elevator. As for the three of them, how to cover up their injured arms and how to prevent the dead man from being discovered is none of my business. Since they are spies, they will naturally find a way. When I turned around, Shin Kimura seemed very dissatisfied and said, "Why didn't you notify the police?" I said: "Mr. Wood, the matter is related to an international dispute. If you inform the police, it will embarrass the Japanese government." Kimura Shinobu let out an "Oh" and said, "What is it for?" I said: "The matter is very complicated, but in the final analysis, it is all about the 'exotic object' of the Inoue family." Kimura Nobuo looked at me for a while, and said: "I have a very good friendship with Mr. Inoue. He told me on the phone I, I can totally trust you." I nodded and said, "You can say that." Shin Kimura paced back and forth a few times. Judging from his expression, he seemed to have some important secret in his heart, and he wanted to tell me, but he didn't tell me.He walked around for a while before saying, "What do you want to know?" I can be sure that this sentence must not be what he really wanted to say to me.What he really wanted to say to me has not been said yet.This can be seen from his expression. At that time, I naturally didn't know what secrets he had in his heart, so I said, "I want to know, what is that 'exotic object'?" Nobuyuki Kimura: "Why do you want to know?" I took out the identity certificate that Nelson gave me, showed it to Kimura Nobu, and said, "I have been entrusted by the international police, not only to find out what it is, but also to get the lost 'foreign object' get back." After hearing my last words, Nobuki Kimura's complexion suddenly changed, and his hands trembled involuntarily. The shock caused him to drop the certificate I handed him to the ground.While saying "I'm sorry" repeatedly, he picked up my ID and handed it back to me. At that moment, great doubts arose in my heart! Why was Nobuo Kimura so surprised when he heard me say that the international police wanted to retrieve the lost "extraterrestrial objects"? Of course, it is impossible for me to answer immediately. I pretended that I never noticed any difference in his demeanor, and continued: "The reason is a secret, please forgive me, because Mr. Inoue mentioned your special opinion on extraterrestrial objects, so I came to ask you for further understanding. I want your cooperation." Faith Kimura thought for a moment, and said: "Strictly speaking, I don't know what the 'foreign object' is. But after my various experiments──" When I heard this, I immediately interrupted him, repeated what he said, and said, "Multiple experiments?" Kimura Shino let out an "Oh" and said, "Yes... yes... I studied it for a long time before putting it in the box." I think Kimura Shin's attitude is still suspicious, but I still hold back and keep silent.Just asked: "So, your preliminary conclusion, what is that thing?" Mr. Kimura said: "I have already told Mr. Inoue that it is a very precise guidance instrument, which is used in space flight. As for how to use it, I don't know. I admit that my knowledge is too poor." I looked at him sideways. From the photos, the "extraterrestrial object" indeed looked like a precision instrument, but it had existed for nearly two hundred years. How could it be possible? I asked: "Mr. Kimura, haven't you noticed the fact that the 'exotic object' has been passed down from the Inoue family for 180 years?" Shin Kimura said loudly, "Of course I know." I said again: "So, you mean, one hundred and eighty years ago, there was already such a scientific level to manufacture such precision instruments and apply them to space navigation?" Kimura said: "Of course not, not to mention one hundred and eighty years, even now, it is impossible." I couldn't understand his words more and more, and asked, "What do you mean?" Nobuki Kimura stood up: "Advanced creatures on the earth can't make such precision instruments. Could it be that advanced creatures on other planets, Can't you?" As soon as I heard what Kimura Shin said, I was shocked, and I couldn't help standing up: "Mr. Kimura, you mean—" I didn't want to stop in the middle of my speech. But if I go on, it must be "Are you saying that thing came from another planet?" If this is the case, it is really absurd and unbelievable, so I suddenly stopped. Nobuyuki Kimura answered without hesitation, and said, "Yes, I mean, this thing is not made by people on Earth at all. It comes from other planets, and it is the crystallization of science by people from other planets." I stayed for a while, unable to speak. After hearing such an astonishing conclusion from an authoritative scientist and engineer, what else can I say?Of course, I can't suddenly believe his amazing conclusion. After a while, I said, "Do you believe so?" Kimura said: "I have to believe it." I said, "What does this mean?" Nobuyuki Kimura: "I used a high-speed cutting knife to cut off a little bit of the metal on the 'extraterrestrial object'. That kind of metal does not exist on the earth—or it exists but has not been discovered by human beings." I took a breath and said, "Is this really possible? Have people from other planets really been to Earth?" Nobuyuki Kimura: "It is possible that the 'exotic object' is a proof. Also, do you know the story of Dr. Nagaoka?" I shook my head and said, "I don't know, who is Dr. Nagaoka?" Nobuyuki Kimura: "Dr. Nagaoka is an outstanding physical scientist and chemist in Japan. In October 1924, he conducted a successful experiment──" When he got to this point, I started laughing.After all, what I have learned in school has not been fully returned to the book. I said: "This experiment is very famous. Dr. Nagaoka found that the atoms of mercury have the same place as the atoms of gold, so he used high Piezoelectricity splits the atoms of mercury and turns the mercury into gold, right?" Nobuki Kimura nodded and said: "Yes, this experiment is a major success recognized by the world's scientific community. He proved that metals can be transformed under certain circumstances. You must know that today's science can achieve such achievements. Some are based entirely on this principle!" I said: "Naturally, I never want to overthrow the great significance of Dr. Nagaoka's experiment, but I remember our topic just now, people from other planets have been to the earth—" I reminded him politely, but I secretly laughed in my heart, thinking that Kimura Shin must be having trouble justifying himself, so I changed the subject.Unexpectedly, Nobu Kimura was serious and said: "That's right, I haven't left the topic yet. Do you know why Dr. Nagaoka concentrated his efforts on research and thought of changing the molecular arrangement to turn mercury into gold?" I smiled awkwardly and said, "Then who knows." Shin Kimura leaned over to me, and said, "Dr. Nagaoka's original motive was just curiosity. He wondered why in ancient Rome, in China, all alchemists, regardless of China and the West, used mercury—mercury The raw material of alchemy, and tirelessly researched, although there is no result, but still firmly believe in it.” I am a person who has an extremely strong interest in all unexplainable things. When Nobuki Kimura first mentioned Dr. Nagaoka, I couldn't help but yawn. But now, I ask myself in my heart: Why do people who study alchemy in ancient times, both Chinese and foreign, always associate mercury with gold, and stubbornly believe that mercury can be turned into gold? There is no connection between mercury and gold, these are two completely different metals in color and shape. I stared at Kimura Shin. Kimura Shin continued: "At that time, Dr. Nagaoka felt strange, and he knew there must be a reason for it, so he also concentrated his efforts to study mercury, and finally discovered the same atomic composition of mercury and gold, which made him The experiment was successful." Nobuki Kimura glanced at me again and found that I was listening to him attentively. He nodded in satisfaction and continued: "His experiment was successful, and the ideas of ancient alchemists have also been proved to be correct. However, the mystery of his original suspicion has not yet been answered, that is: why people in ancient times would associate mercury and gold, because before 1924, no one had found that the two atoms had the same relationship. and the fact that mercury atoms contain gold—" He pounded his fist on the table heavily, and said: "Besides, considering the level of ancient science, it is absolutely impossible to discover this, but the alchemists in China and Rome stubbornly believed that mercury can be turned into gold! " He finished his speech and looked at me again. I took a deep breath and said, "How about your explanation? Mr. Nobuki Kimura." Nobuichi Kimura: "It's not my explanation, it's my late father's opinion. My late father was a close friend of Dr. Nagaoka. He said that in ancient times, people from other planets must have been to the earth. Rome and China, the culture at that time The most developed country, but the science of other planets is even more advanced. They have already known a very simple method to turn mercury and other substances into gold, and have tested it for people on the earth. So the people on the earth will stubbornly remember this point!" Kimura Shin's words are full of imagination. At the same time, his words are also full of persuasiveness. I followed him involuntarily and said, "So, people on earth also want to produce gold by this method, but due to the level of scientists, there has been no way to succeed." Mr. Kimura: "Yes, it wasn't until Dr. Nagaoka that he succeeded for the first time." I said, "Then—" I only said two words, then stopped, I tried my best to keep my head calm, because I found that I had been led into a frenzy by Kimura Nobu's words. Nobuki Kimura obviously saw my intentions. He took a breath and said, "Don't you believe it? I don't want you to believe it. I just ask you, is it possible?" I nodded sincerely and said, "Of course it is possible." Kimura said: "That's good, we can continue talking." I said: "I have a few questions, may I ask you to explain further?" Kimura Channel: "I'm not yet an expert in this research, but I can tell you as much as I can." I said: "People from other planets, why don't they come back after coming to Earth once?" Nobuki Kimura thought for a while, and said: "There are three possibilities. One, it's not that we don't come, but we don't know. Second, the spaceship crashes if it doesn't arrive. More and more scientists believe that the inexplicable explosion over Tunguska, Siberia in the 19th century was the result of a spaceship crash from another planet!" I nodded, and Shin Kimura continued: "There is a third point, we don't know what planet the person who taught alchemy came from, maybe he came from a very far away planet, at this moment, he is still on his way back !" I laughed and said, "Does he have such a long life?" Shin Kimura looked at me with strange eyes, and said: "I don't believe you don't know the most superficial common sense of the 'theory of relativity'. In the high-speed continuous operation, time almost does not exist!" I am silent. Shin Kimura said again: "Besides, people on other planets have a different concept of time from us. We live on the earth, and the earth revolves around the sun as a year. Our life span is sixty years. Others People on the planet may also take their planet to orbit the sun as a year, and their lifespan is also sixty years, but the difference is huge, do you know?" I don't understand, because the problem seems to be more and more. Kimura Channel: "You don't understand? The time for Neptune to orbit the sun is 165 times that of the earth. So, in the same 60 years, the actual life span of people on Neptune is also 100 times longer than that of people on Earth." Sixty-five times!" Kimura Shin's words sounded very shocking, but it was not unreasonable to think about it. I stayed for a while, and Kimura Shin continued: "Due to the influence of genetics, if people on other planets live on the earth, their lifespan is also based on the time on their original planet. Mr. Wei, I I suspect that in your Chinese legends, Peng Zu who lived to be 800 years old, and Dongfang Shuo who has eaten peaches every three thousand years, are from other planets!" Kimura Shin's words became more and more absurd. Just when I was about to laugh out loud, I suddenly remembered something, and my heart felt as if someone had hit me hard. At that moment, I thought of Fang Tianlai! From the diary on Fang Tian's body, compared with the words on the "exotic objects from outside the sky", it is certain that Fang Tian has a connection with "exotic objects from outside the sky".Inoue Jixiong once said that Fang Tian is an "outsider from heaven", but because of his age, the problem cannot be solved, and Inoue Jixiong said this as a joke. But Kimura Shin's words shocked me greatly. Shin Kimura said that the life time of people from other planets must be based on other planets. If they also come from Neptune, then they can live 165 times longer than people on the earth, because Neptune revolves around the sun. The time is 165 times longer than that of the earth. Kimura Shin's words are naturally just a hypothesis. There is no way to prove his hypothesis, because no one has ever used a person from another planet to do this experiment.However, his words cannot be regarded as completely absurd words. This possibility exists. Then, Fang Tianzhen might be an "outsider from heaven"! As long as Fang Tian doesn't come from Mercury and Venus, his life can be much longer than that of people on Earth. The long number is a multiple, not a few years. If he is from Neptune, then, after 160 years on Earth Fifteen years, to him, was just a year!In an instant, I found that Kimura Shin's hypothesis seemed to be able to solve my doubts about Fang Tian. Fang Tian and I have been separated for many years, and his appearance has not changed at all; Fang Tian's blood is blue—this is something that is absolutely impossible for people on earth; Fang Tian has superhuman brain waves, which can even make people People have the idea of ​​suicide; Fang Tian has a small and strange weapon that can kill people in a second; Fang Tian's scientific knowledge makes even the best scientists dumbfounded... There are too many strange things about Fang Tian, ​​and none of them can be explained by common sense. However, when it is understood that he is from another planet and is not a person on Earth at all, aren't all doubts resolved? Originally, I only thought that Nobuki Kimura was a person with a very rich imagination, and I didn't intend to refute what he said at all. However, when I thought of Fang Tian, ​​I was almost sure that Kimura Shin's deduction was correct. I sat on the chair and couldn't speak for a while. I just felt my cheeks were hot and my body was hot. My mind was in a mess and I didn't know what I was thinking.Human beings have been centered on the earth for many, many generations. Suddenly, when people on other planets see that people on our earth are not much smarter than animals, that feeling is really not true. what can be described in words.How long I stayed, even I don't know. (Note in 1986: This is the first time in Wesley’s story that Wesley encountered an alien, so his reaction was very surprising. Afterwards, he saw more and more, and he felt no surprise.) Like me, Nobuki Kimura also maintained a still posture.He himself has no doubts about his own deduction, and his feelings are naturally the same as mine. After a while, I stood up: "Mr. Kimura, thank you for your help." Kimura smiled and said, "That's nothing." I wanted to tell Kimura Shinobu everything about Fang Tian, ​​but I immediately remembered that it is better for fewer people to know about such a thing.So I changed my words: "Mr. Kimura, it's a pity that the Inoue family stubbornly wanted to bury the foreign object that day in the ground, and refused to give you further research. Otherwise, you will definitely have a newer discovery."
