Chapter 14 Chapter Thirteen

After half a month of investigation, the results came to fruition. A mysterious Chinese man, recognized by many people, appeared in a town near the research center around May 30th.In the early hours of June 1, this Chinese got drunk in a small town nearby and shouted, "The end of the world is coming!" "The fate of mankind has come to an end!" A few in the pub thought he was a preacher of some new sect. Hu Feier immediately focused his investigation on this Chinese person, and a large number of portraits based on eyewitness descriptions were sent out, and the whereabouts of this Chinese person gradually became clear.

Modern large-scale investigations can completely clarify the ins and outs of a person.Hu Feier already knew that the Chinese name was Shan Si, who was born in a very wealthy family, and he himself was an outstanding amateur grave robber. After getting the news that Shan Si was in Cairo, Colonel Hufeer immediately flew to Cairo, and as soon as he got off the plane, he went straight to a third-rate nightclub. In Cairo, there are quite a few nightclubs like this. The characteristics of this kind of nightclubs are the smog and the air pollution level, which makes people feel like they are in a furnace. Belly dancers writhe their bodies crazily. Coughing as soon as you walk in.

In a corner of this nightclub, Hu Feier saw Shan Si lying on the bellies of five belly dancers, holding a wine bottle in his hand and pouring wine into his mouth. Hu Feier is an experienced intelligence worker. He never revealed his identity, but kept silent. Amidst the giggles of the belly dancer, he squeezed beside Shan Si, and also lay down. The wine twisted to his mouth, and he also drank it. Shan Si looked at him, happy to have someone to keep him company, the two kept drinking. The nightclub is open 24 hours, and Hu Feier and Shan Si spent at least 60 hours in this corner, waking up and getting drunk, drunk and waking up again, until Hu Feier thought the time was right, he said: "The end of the world It's here, you know?"

Shan Si seemed to have heard the heartfelt words of his best friend, and immediately nodded his head: "I know. I thought only the two of us knew it, so you know it too? Does everyone know it?" When Shan Si said this, he was telling Hu Feier: There were two people who broke into the research center, and there was another person besides him.Hu Feier couldn't help being secretly surprised, because his investigation was so extensive and in-depth, but he only found out that Shansi was related to the incident. Who is the other person?How can it seem to disappear in the air and not appear in his investigation network?

(Of course, Colonel Hufeer didn’t know that there was another person named Qi Bai who had been hiding in a cave in the desert near the research center. Qi Bai was not only smarter than Shan Si, but also calmer than Shan Si. After the corpse, he was not as badly hit as Shan Si.) Hu Feier replied: "No one else knows, only the three of us know this secret." Shan Si stared at Hu Feier: "It's too scary, isn't it?" Hu Feier went straight to the point: "Yes, so many corpses, alien corpses from unfathomable celestial bodies, the people on the earth are finished and become lower creatures."

Shan Si's body trembled violently and murmured: "It's over, it's over, damn Qi Bai, why did he invite me to do such a thing?" Hu Feier had the name "Qi Bai", which made it easy for him to find out everything about Qi Bai.At that time, he just asked casually: "Where is Qi Bai?" Shan Si said: "I don't know, he said he... We have unintentionally touched the greatest secret of today's human beings, and we will definitely suffer misfortune. Those who deliberately keep secrets will not let us go." Hu Feier remained calm: "Unless you can return the body to them."

Shan Si let out a terrible laugh: "Corpse? Haha, where are the corpses?" Hu Feier asked: "What did you do with the corpse?" Shan Si waved his hands: "I don't know, everything is like a nightmare. One glass box after another, as soon as it is broken, the body suddenly gradually disappears, melts into the air, and disappears. Qi Bai keeps breaking the glass boxes, and the body keep disappearing—” At this point, Shan Si opened his eyes full of red silk and stared at Hu Feier: "You said, did they escape? Go back? Like a demon locked in a treasure box by a spell, they escaped." , and then, will they come back for revenge on a large scale?"

For a while, Hu Feier didn't understand what Shansi meant by saying this. It wasn't until after repeated inquiries and conversations that Hu Feier figured out what happened. In his report, he affirmed that what Shan Si said was all true. What happened was: Qi Bai invited Shan Si to rob the tomb together, passed through the tunnel, entered the secret room, and saw the corpse of the alien.When they entered the passageway, Qi Bai started to record. At that time, he felt extremely confused, because he believed with all his heart that he should be in an ancient tomb. When they entered the secret room and saw the corpse of the alien, they began to understand what was going on. Qi Bai broke those glass boxes like crazy.

(This is the source of the constant sound of glass shattering and his screams in Qi Bai's tape. At this time, Shan Si was too shocked to make any sound.) The glass box shattered, and the corpse in the box disappeared quickly. They didn't even have a chance to touch the corpse. (This phenomenon is extremely strange, and Hu Feier didn't understand it, so he just recorded it according to what Shan Si said.) (I can understand a little bit. The three people once told me that they couldn't bear the gas in the secret room. It can be roughly inferred that pure nitrogen gas will make their bodies quickly dissolve in nitrogen gas.)

In the end, they found a glass brick, and Qi Bai picked it up. Shan Si didn't know what Qi Bai did again. In fact, as soon as he entered the secret room, he saw the corpse of the alien, and he was completely dumbfounded. Living. Then, Qi Bai pulled him and ran out, because they ran away too hastily, which set off the alarm, but they still escaped. As soon as they escaped, Qi Bai said: "Shan Si, we have seen a secret that we shouldn't see, someone will definitely kill us to keep the secret, so run away and hide in a place out of the way of people. " After Shan Si regained his composure, his intuition was not as sensitive as Qi Bai's. He just ignored Qi Bai's warning and said, "I must tell Wesley about this strange thing."

(That's why it's not easy for my name to appear in the second top-secret report.) Qi Bai said at the time: "You'd better run away, you can write to him and tell him not to look for him." (Qi Bai sent these two tapes to me after he left Shansi. He couldn’t have sent them by himself. He entrusted someone to send them. I remembered the person he sent to put them in the coffin, and I know he has great powers.) Then, Qi Bai said again: "There is one thing - I also want to give it to Wesley." Shan Si looked at him: "What?" (Dan Si recorded in the report is very important to Hu Feier’s conversation between him and Qi Bai. Qi Bai said he would give me something, but he didn’t ask Shan Si to give it to me, and I didn’t accept it. to what.) (It is because Hu Feier may think that something is in my hands, so he sent six of his men to track me after assassinating Shan Si, and to detect the whereabouts of the things.) (At that time, I thought it must be a very rare antiquity, so I said "precious antiquity". After hearing this sentence, the six people who knew the inside story naturally knew that I actually didn't know anything. That's what happened to me on the plane.) (Fortunately, I really didn't know at all at the time, because these six people had already been ordered, as long as I knew the inside story, they would deal with me like they would deal with Shansi.) (As for these six people, after completing the mission, everyone knows what happened to them.) Qi Bai and Shan Si broke up, Qi Bai disappeared, and Shan Si went to Egypt. Because of the shock, he was intoxicated all day long, until Colonel Hu Feier found him. Colonel Hu Feier learned about the situation from Shan Si's mouth, and he was ready to get rid of Shan Si, but he still wanted to know more about the process. There was a little accident, and a few people of unknown origin suddenly took Shan Si away. . Hu Feier launched another investigation, and Shan Si did not appear in the East until more than a month later.Hu Feier has not known where Shansi has been for more than a month. (I can guess where Shan Si is. Qi Bai has always been concerned about Shan Si's safety. Those "people with unknown origins" in the report must be Qi Bai's friends, who took Shan Si away from Cairo and got him to another place. Go to a safe place, it's like taking me out of a hole in the ground.) (But Shan Si obviously didn't appreciate it. He knew that someone was going to hunt him down, but he still came to me. He thought that what Qi Bai mentioned was with me.) (What happened next has already been written at the beginning, and everyone already knows it.) At the end of the report, it was mentioned that Shan Si and the six people sent to carry out the mission were all dead, and there were two other people worth noting, one was Wesley, but it had been proved that he knew nothing about the secret, and the most important person, Qi Bai , whereabouts are unknown. The entire incident, due to the mysterious disappearance of the corpse, was code-named "gasification incident". In the report, the last paragraph is that Colonel Hufell expected that someone might come again, it is very likely that the aliens want to get back the corpses of their companions, so he proposed not to close the tunnel as a trap, so that those who re-enter People, fall into the trap. As a result, Bai Su and I fell into Hu Feier's trap, and that's why we got Top Secret Report No. 3. The jet plane was still flying at high altitude. After reading these three reports, I took a deep breath and shook hands with Bai Su, the palms of which were sweating.General Typhon looked straight at us coldly. Bai Su squeezed out a very reluctant smile: "It seems that the two of us should be included in the extermination list." General Taifeng snorted: "Originally, but Colonel Hu Feier does not advocate doing so." I couldn't help "humming": "Why? He was the one who implemented the silence plan from beginning to end, and he was the first to propose and draw up it." General Taifeng said: "When you arrive at the destination, you will naturally understand. Now I don't want to explain first." I didn't say anything anymore, and exchanged a wink with Bai Su again.The whole thing, up to now, can be said to be the truth.The scope of the matter is so wide!The supreme ruling group of a powerful country is determined to keep the fact that aliens came to the earth absolutely secret. This matter itself may be just a conceptual problem, and it is not a crime, but in order to achieve the goal, it must use the most ugly s method. Bai Su whispered to me: "Calm down, don't be impulsive, and don't treat them as enemies." I said angrily, "They can take our lives at any time." Bai Su shook his head and said, "They're just too scared, and their fear makes them unable to face the facts." I couldn't agree with Bai Su's statement, and I stopped speaking out of anger. The plane landed in a military airport after flying for three hours. When we got off the plane, we were sent to a fully sealed car under extremely strict security, and General Taifeng took another car.We have no way of knowing where the car passed by, and the car stopped in about half an hour.We got out of the car and were already in a building. The armed men led us into a room and closed the door. The room was not big, only Bai Su and I sat down. The opposite wall suddenly moved away, and the compartment and this room became one. In the room next door, there were already five people present, one General Taifeng, we knew each other, and another old man who seemed to be over sixty years old, but his physique could still be called robust, we took a quick look at him. Come out, he is the supreme leader of this country. There are two more, all senior officials who have seen photos, and the other sits closest to us. This man stood up when the wall was removed. .With a hooked nose and thin lips, it is obvious at a glance that he is very unfeeling. The man stared at us and introduced himself: "No one else needs to introduce, I am Colonel Hoofer." He held out his hand and walked towards me, and I stood up and shook his hand.He nodded to Bai Su very politely, and turned around: "Everyone knows what it is, let's start right away!" The rest of the people agreed, and I said loudly: "Wait a minute, I am not here voluntarily, and I will not participate in the discussion of any issues." Hu Feier stared at me with his godly eyes, and said for a long while. : "What is the situation now, you are still paying attention to these." I asked coldly, "What time is it?" Hu Feier roared suddenly: "Now is the most critical time for the earth—" After he yelled, he immediately felt that the people present were all of high status, and he couldn't be so rude, so he immediately lowered his voice, his face flushed, "The aliens have come." I sneered again: "I don't understand why you are so afraid. As long as there are other creatures in the universe, they will come sooner or later. What's the fuss?" Colonel Hufell's expression became extremely weird, as if I was not his kind at all, but an alien. The old man coughed: "I'm sorry, you did not come voluntarily, but you broke into a first-level military security agency, and our country has the right to interrogate you." I wanted to speak, but the old man waved his hand and stopped me from continuing: "Now, we are not going to interrogate you, but just want to talk to you and find out how to deal with the matter." As the supreme leader of a superpower, this old man's attitude is much better than that of Hu Feier, and I also calmly said: "Okay, this way, everyone can start talking." Hu Feier squeezed out a very reluctant smile, and I jumped ahead of him and said: "I don't think there is anything wrong with aliens coming to the earth, they will come sooner or later. Here they come, it must be an invasion. Invaders from outer space, this is all about video games, comic strips and movies, not necessarily real life." General Taifeng said: "According to the facts that have happened, if they launch an attack, we will have no room to resist." I laughed: "General, I don't know what kind of logic you have, for example——" For a moment, I couldn't think of a suitable example, so I turned my head to look at Bai Su.Bai Su's posture was very elegant and she immediately said: "It's like a dwarf, once he saw the heavyweight boxing champion, he decided that this boxing champion would definitely attack him." General Taifeng's face twitched a few times: "Actually, the distance is farther away. Before these alien creatures, we were too weak. One of their spaceships can completely wipe out the electricity in tens of thousands of square kilometers. " The old man said: "So, we decided to keep it a secret, otherwise, once the real situation is announced, the end of the world will come, and we don't have to wait for the aliens to attack, we will destroy ourselves, just like when something happens. It is as terrible as the crowded crowd trampling each other to death because of fear, rushing to escape." When he talked about this, he paused for a moment: "Human beings have lived on the earth for many years, and after many turmoil, they have established an order that is acceptable to most people, although it is not ideal. To live, you need a certain amount of support psychologically. Once that support is gone, the chaos begins." I nodded: "I agree with this analysis, but this is the conclusion drawn after affirming that outsiders will attack us." Hu Feier called again: "Of course they will." I stared at Hu Feier for a while.It may be that my eyes are very strange, and Yihu Feier showed an uneasy and angry expression under my gaze. My mood at this time was pity and anger towards Hu Feier.I pity his ignorance, and he stubbornly believes in the conclusions drawn by his own ignorance, and acts according to this stupid conclusion. After staring at him for a while, I said, "Before I was imprisoned as an alien, I met them." I put a special emphasis on the word "they". As soon as these words were uttered, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense. Everyone, involuntarily, straightened up. Colonel Hu Feier even stood up suddenly, and immediately sat down again, his face became very ugly. , his lips moved, wanting to say something, but he didn't make a sound. I expected that my words would shock him.I continued: "You will never guess what they are talking about." Hu Feier made a sound like a groan, and I told the story of meeting those three "men in white robes". Everyone stared at me without making a sound. I slowly said: "The example they gave is very convincing. The jellyfish living in the sea will never expand its territory to the forest, because in the forest, it cannot live at all." Hu Feier murmured: "But──their abilities──" I immediately said: "Among the jellyfish, there is a highly poisonous one called 'Portuguese battleship'. Almost no land creatures can resist its toxin. But if a hare living on the Siberian plains, worry about it day and night Will come to attack, what kind of mentality is this?" Several high-level leaders looked at each other and seemed to agree with me.But Hu Feier shouted: "No!" I wanted to hear what he had to say, so I decided on him.Hu Feier looked very excited: "The hare doesn't have to worry, but the jellyfish has already appeared in its living area, can you not worry?" I was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but couldn't answer for a while, the old man sighed: "Yes, the truth is, they have already come." I took a breath: "It is true that they have come, but that does not mean that they will definitely hurt us. The blackout, according to my speculation, is that their spaceship has malfunctioned and requires a lot of power , so they seized our power supply as a last resort." Hu Feier snorted and didn't say anything. General Taifeng spoke bitterly: "One spaceship can cause such damage if it breaks down. If ten spaceships need to be powered up, our country will be completely destroyed. " I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and Bai Su said in her elegant tone at this time: "It is meaningless to discuss these issues now. Because the wishes of outsiders are good or bad, and the earth people have no defense at all!" " Hu Feier immediately said: "Yes, that's why we should be extremely nervous and frightened." Bai Su said slowly: "Nervousness or panic can't solve the problem either." Hu Feier snorted: "Miss, what better way do you have?" Bai Su said: "Yes: I understand! We should try our best to understand them, and let them understand us." Hu Feier's eyes rolled, but he didn't make a sound, and everyone else also remained silent. Bai Su continued: "Mutual understanding can make things easier. Everyone, they are here, this is a fact, panic is useless, and defense is useless, let them come." Hu Feier's voice sounded very sharp: "I can't bear it, and most people can't bear the sudden appearance of a fifteen-centimeter-tall villain around us, whose intelligence and ability are higher than ours." Bai Su said: "In the beginning, no one will get used to it, but this is an irresistible fact. In the future, there will be more and more interstellar creatures traveling between different stars. Not only will there be villains fifteen centimeters tall, but also There will be adults twenty meters tall, and there will even be many aliens whose shapes are completely beyond our imagination, our principle must be changed──” Bai Su took a deep breath, and then said in an extremely firm tone: "We must all regard them as friends, instead of treating them as enemies or invaders psychologically." Several senior leaders looked at each other, and the top leader sighed again: "It's very interesting. What Ms. Bai said is very interesting. I think it's time to start changing our attitude towards aliens. If this If fundamental attitudes do not change, Earthlings will not be able to adapt to life in the future." Another muttered, "Yeah, but how do I start?" I interjected: "Of course, this is very difficult. It is extremely difficult to have an aggressive earthling who believes that other creatures may not be aggressive at all." Hu Feier said coldly and dryly: "Maybe, aliens are also aggressive at all." I said: "Yes. There may be, but so what? Earth people have the power to protect themselves? The result is still the same!" Hu Feier said loudly: "The result is different. To keep the earth people from knowing the existence of aliens, and to do everything possible to keep this secret, so as not to cause panic, the result is different." I smiled wryly, after all, Hu Feier still did not change his opinion.But at least, we have expressed our opinions to each other. After a moment of silence in the room, the old man said: "I agree that this is the only way we can take at present. It will take time to change the fundamental concepts of people all over the world." Bai Su said: "At least, we can start to change the image of 'alien invaders' in all propaganda." General Taifeng said in a deep voice: "The fact is that we are already doing that. Under our behind-the-scenes planning, a movie about contact with peaceful aliens has been filmed and shown all over the world." I said "Oh": "That movie!" The old man waved his hand: "Basically, our opinions don't have much difference──" Although the old man was very solemn when he was speaking, I still interrupted him impolitely: "There is a disagreement. If we want to keep absolute secrets, my wife and I will also be included in the list of Colonel Hufell. It's on the extermination list." Colonel Hufell's expression became extremely unsightly.The old man said: "I have given an order that there will be no more silencing operations. Even so, I still agree that we will do our best to keep it secret." Bai Su and I looked at each other and didn't say anything.The old man continued: "We can't be sure that what we did in the past is right, and we can't be sure that what we are doing now is right. We just try our best to judge and then act. All right and wrong can only be left to the future and history to judge. " There was a bit of sadness in his voice. Although this old man had a very high status, he gave people a kind feeling. I stretched my body and patted his shoulder twice with my hands. He also patted the back of my hand with his backhand, it seems that we are like old friends. He glanced at a leader, and the leader said: "The purpose of meeting with the two is to convey to—through them, that we really don't welcome them to Earth. And the corpses they want , because of their special body structure, they have disappeared into the nitrogen and no longer exist, so you can invite them to go." Hu Feier lost his voice: "They won't leave, there is still that thing!" He waved his hand vigorously: "Although no one has seen what that thing looks like, we still have to use all methods to find Qi Bai." I shook my head and said, "Qi Bai won't tell either, he is more scared than anyone else. If I see them again, I will pass on this message." The old man stood up: "I believe you will keep the secret, now, you can leave." I also stood up: "I am very happy to meet you, but I have a different opinion from you. Not only will I not keep a secret, but I will also try my best to spread the word and tell the people on earth that aliens have coming." Hu Feier said coldly: "No one will believe you. If you can't produce any evidence, people will think that what you say is a fantasy novel." I murmured: "Maybe people don't believe it for a while, but the truth is hard to hide for a long time." General Taifeng said: "Don't bring the problem back to the old way. If you continue to argue like this, there will never be a result." Bai Su also stood up: "Indeed, we are tired and need to rest." The old man came up and shook hands with us, and we were still accompanied by General Taifun, and Colonel Huffer followed me, saying: "Personally, I am very happy to be your friend." I looked at him for a moment: "I'm really sorry, Shan Si died by my side, I can't forget the scene at that time." After saying that sentence, I didn't even look at the hands they extended to me, turned around, and strode out. After Bai Su and I got our freedom, General Taifeng still wanted me to meet the three white-robed aliens, so we stayed near the research center for another three days. But the other party did not show up.I promised General Taifun that at most, I would go to that manhole in North Africa to meet them again, but now, I am really tired and want to rest. General Taifeng reluctantly agreed, repeatedly asking me to contact him as soon as I had information about them.During these three days, I also tried my best to find Qi Bai.But Qi Bai seemed to have disappeared in the air, and there was no news at all. Bai Su and I set off to go home. During the voyage, I tried to talk to a few people who seemed to be very knowledgeable. I asked them about their views on aliens. The answers I got were roughly the same, and I didn’t believe in aliens. Has been to the earth, but does not deny the existence of aliens.When it comes to what will happen when aliens have arrived on the earth, the unanimous reaction is: that is the end of the world. Alas, what a serious misconception this is. The people on Earth will really perish—the perishing lies in the misconception that they cannot adapt to the friendly intercourse between advanced interstellar creatures. At the door of the house, the old servant Lao Cai opened the door and welcomed us in. Lao Cai is very old, but his spirit is still vigorous. When he saw us, his wrinkled face showed a very strange expression Come: "This house... this house... is kind of..." He spoke very hesitantly, and I said, "Lao Cai, if you have anything to say, please speak up." Lao Cai smiled wryly and said, "This house is a bit unclean!" I understood what he meant by "unclean", and laughed in my heart: "Why, what the hell?" Lao Cai shook his hands, his expression serious: "I'm not kidding, I saw it twice, that... the ghost was very fat, had three heads, wore a white robe, and came down the stairs twice, I... I... " When I heard Lao Cai describe the appearance of the "ghost" he had seen twice, I couldn't help being ecstatic, and even Bai Su showed a very happy expression.I stared at Lao Cai in a daze, I don't know what kind of nerves the two of us have lost, and we would be so overjoyed when we heard that the house was haunted. I patted Lao Cai on the shoulder: "Lao Cai, you didn't see clearly, they are three people, the one who is not very fat has three heads." Lao Cai opened his mouth wide, unable to close it, and looked even more frightened, I said again: "Don't worry, they are my friends." Lao Cai swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Since he was a child, he has been used to seeing my weird actions, so he looked a little helpless, but he still couldn't help muttering: "I have all kinds of friends, even the three-headed ghost We're all friends." While muttering, he turned around and walked in. I said to Bai Su: "So they came earlier." I took two steps in parallel and jumped up the stairs, Bai Su said: "Why are you in a hurry, they may not be upstairs now." Bai Su yelled, I had already rushed up, stopped for a while in the space between the study and the bedroom, and saw the door of the study opened a little, and a voice came out: "We are here." I was so happy that I whistled loudly, waved behind me, pushed open the study door, and saw the three people at a glance, as if I saw them in a virus room, "crowded" together, sitting on the sofa superior. I made a gesture to them, waited for Bai Su to come in, and closed the door of the study.At this time, I already knew what their bodies looked like, but I was just amazed at the size of their eyes. If their bodies are only twenty centimeters high, and their eyes look like people on earth, in terms of proportion, they are really a bit unbelievably big.When I looked at them, Bai Su said: "Three, the problem of corpses no longer exists." One of the three people, the voice is still so blunt: "doesn't exist?" I said: "Yes, in fact there is no corpse. Qi Bai entered the tomb and saw the corpse sealed in the glass box, which made him extremely shocked. In the tape he gave me, he used Words like 'ultimate' indicate how shocked he was at the time, thinking that the end of the world had arrived." The man snorted, and I continued: "Because of shock, Qi Bai started to smash those glass boxes, so the body was exposed to the nitrogen in the room at that time—" I just said this, when the other party made an "ah" sound, and a strange light appeared in his eyes. I said: "I don't understand what your body structure is like. The fact is that all the corpses will disappear immediately after they come into contact with 100% nitrogen." The man was silent for a moment before he said: "This is an extremely complicated chemical change, it is indeed not easy for you to understand, to give a simple example, it is like...there is an element...called uranium, which is the result of being exposed to the air The main constituent elements of our body will completely dissolve in the gas when it encounters 100% nitrogen." I took a breath: "The corpse does not exist, and the spaceship that caused the problem will never be found. You... I'm sorry, this is not what I meant personally, but it was entrusted by its side... You also You can leave now. Your presence is obviously not very welcome." The man made a rather strange sound, and it was unknown whether he was sighing or smiling bitterly: "Yes, we will leave, who will stay on such a terrible planet for a long time? In fact, we even retrieved that thing coming." I said "oh", and the sleeve of the man among them was lifted up, and I noticed that glass brick was in his "hand". Bai Su and I made a low voice at the same time: "This...is...that thing?" The man said: "Using our method to record things in it──This thing is of course not glass. Just because you can't see anything doesn't mean that the recorded thing doesn't exist. The video tape you use, it seems, also Just a dark brown band!" I lit the cigarette and took a long puff: "But, how does Qi Bai know that this is an important thing?" The man said: "I believe he has found... a reader, that is an instrument, you can see everything recorded in it, just like you can hear or see everything recorded on the tape through a device. Really It's strange that he didn't give you this 'reading device' too." I shook my head and said, "Qi Bai never came to look for me, I always thought that this piece of glass was given to me by Shan Si." The man said: "It can't be Shansi." After he said this, he paused for a moment, and then said: "I also have a few words, I would like to ask you to convey them. During our long voyage, we found many There are advanced creatures, you are the most backward!" I said, "That's why we're terrified or shocked." The humane said: "Because your living environment is too bad, there will be the concept of plunder and encroachment. If you can devote yourself to improving the living environment, this concept will naturally not exist over time. Perhaps, my words , you can't understand at all?" I thought for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "I can understand a little bit. I know that the living environment on the earth is really bad. Everyone has to struggle hard to survive. To be rich in material things and meet people's needs, people's fundamental concept is the only way to survive." Will it change?" The man let out a long sigh: "You actually don't understand at all." I was very dissatisfied: "Why don't you understand? People on earth are greedy, encroaching, plundering, and selfish, all because of lack of material. If the ground is full of gold, who would be crazy about gold?" The man let out a longer sigh: "You really don't understand at all. To change the living environment, it does not depend on whether the material is rich or not. The desires of people on earth are endless. No matter how rich the material is, the spirit is empty, and the problem cannot be solved. .” I was still thinking about what that person said, but Bai Su had already said: "Spiritual! Only spiritual enrichment can enable life on earth to exist in a satisfying and non-plundering environment!" The man said: "Yes, you understand a little bit." As he spoke, the three of them left the sofa together.I hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, I still have a lot of questions." The man said: "You want to know where we come from? How powerful are we?" I nodded repeatedly.The man said: "These questions are meaningless to you." I hurriedly said again: "Then, this—" I pointed to the glass block, "The content of this thing—" The man replied: "This is the flight log of the spacecraft. I believe that even if I told you all the contents, you would not be interested." 我忙道：“你说的那个阅读仪，是甚么样子的？或许就在我书房中，我可以找一找，也让我知道一下内容。” 那人道：“我可以肯定不在这里，在的话，我们一定会知道，那东西有两个六角形的突出物，颜色是极夺目的红色，半透明。可以透过它，将我们记录下来的一切，和你们的电脑电波产生作用，使用的人，就可以看到你们的文字，这是一个十分复杂的转化过程，你不会了解。” 我的确只能想像，无法了解。显然，地球人的知识，还无法了解那样复杂的事，就像我无法了解他们何以能从北非洲一下子把我移到北美洲去。 那人讲完之后，向外走去，来到门口，我忙打开了门，让他们下楼，我听到老蔡又发出了一下惊呼声，和一下重物倒地的声音，接着，是开门声和关门声，他们已经离开了。 不多久以后，在报上看到了病毒逝世，所收藏的宝物捐给了埃及国家博物馆的消息。 又过了一年之后，在一个偶然的机会之下，在欧洲的一个滑雪胜地，见到了齐白。齐白已经恢复了昔日的生活方式，我们在谈了一整晚，当壁炉中的火焰已经熄灭，柴堆只剩下白灰的时候，他才忽然提起：“我派人送给你两样东西，谁知道那人不可靠，以为其中的一样是红宝石，拿去卖给了珠宝商。” 我“啊”地一声：“那……玻璃砖和它的阅读仪？你派去的那人──” 齐白道：“那人将玻璃砖放在你书房，没有另外一个东西，你不能知道这东西的内容。” 我忙道：“是啊，这东西──” 齐白打了一个呵欠：“内容沉闷之极，全是航行的记录，对了，还有人在等我，再见了，老朋友。” 他既然说内容只是航行的记录，沉闷无比，我也不想再问下去了。 我只是望着愈来愈黯淡的炉火，在想着那种形体很小的外星人讲过的，地球人应该尽一切努力，去改善自己生存环境的那几句话，也不理会我是不是终于能想通它、了解它。
