Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Lagrange point, New Life closed experimental space station,

    From the surface, except that there are more solar panels covering the surface and the volume is enlarged more than ten times, the New Life space station does not seem to be much different from those space stations Ned has seen before. The engineering ship slows down and docks, waiting for pressure  When adjusting, Ned always had a vague worry. He was worried that when the door was opened, dozens of armed policemen would suddenly appear from around him, and then a magic policeman would suddenly appear behind him. After handcuffing himself, he said coldly.  announced that he was being arrested for treason.

    In fact, he guessed the first half, but was lucky enough to avoid the second half. When the hatch opened, there were indeed many people waiting at the door, and a few of them swarmed towards him with quick hands and feet, but at a glance  Looking at the attire of these people, Ned did not associate them with the words police or soldiers at all. If he had to describe them, they should be more like a group of beggars

    Before he had time to take a look at the faces of these people, the few "beggars" walking in the front asked him enthusiastically, no, simply diligently, in English: "Have you brought anything to eat?"

    "Food?" Ned glanced at the questioner in surprise. He was an Asian in his thirties with very short hair At this time, he suddenly noticed that almost all of the people surrounding him were rational.  He had very short hair, the length of which even made Ned suspect that it had grown out after shaving his head. This reminded him subconsciously that kl3014 had talked to him about life here. He said it was very hard here, and Ned said it was even a prison.  He also admitted it, but Ned said that compared to prison, the conditions in a closed space station are better

    kl3014 didn't say much at the time, but Ned always disagreed. After all, this is modern society, no matter how hard it is, it can be miserable. But as soon as he came in, he was surrounded by a group of people asking if they had anything to eat. He still panicked subconsciously - no  There is a serious shortage of food here, right?  But this idea was later abandoned, because he noticed that the faces of these people, although a little haggard, were still bloody, and they were definitely not people who were suffering from long-term hunger.

    Everyone stared at Ned hopefully for a long time, but saw that he still didn't respond. Their disappointment was palpable. Suddenly, one of them seemed to have remembered something, and hurriedly explained: "We don't want it for nothing, we buy it, and we follow the rules."  I understand, I will never let you suffer a loss, as long as you have the goods" As he spoke, he hurriedly grabbed a handful of banknotes from his pocket, stretched it out and waved it to the people in front of him

    Ned was a little confused by this sudden move, because he saw that what the man took out was a thick stack of U.S. dollar bills, and what was even more confusing to him was what was behind him. The man had just made a move, and the surroundings  Several others immediately hurriedly took out more money. The green bills looked like pieces of paper to them

    "Hurry up, people from the Inspection Department are coming soon!" Someone in the crowd shouted softly in Chinese. Ned didn't understand the rest, but he still understood the words "Inspection Department". At this moment, the person in front of him  Several people moved even more hastily - they looked uneasily into the engineering ship, while looking back from time to time. In the process, they even came forward to persuade him: "Hurry up if you can wait until the Supervision Department people finish the inspection."  Nothing is gone Is this your first time here? Then listen to me, don¡¯t think about anything. If you brought anything to eat, take it out immediately. The benefits will not be lost to you. You can change it to anything.  ¡­¡±

    "You are getting more and more outrageous!" A female voice appeared behind Ned like thunder. With the sound of this voice, the group of people in front of them dispersed with a bang. Watching these people disappear within a few seconds  , disappeared without a trace, Ned had no idea what had happened, until a woman in a blue uniform appeared in front of him, saluted him, and saw the eye symbol on her shoulder, Ned suddenly  Understand this - the person speaking is a member of the Carmel Inspection Department.

    Ned, who had a guilty conscience, immediately remembered his "crime". Just when he was speechless and subconsciously wanted to say something, the man opposite spoke first, in English: "Don't speak. I'll ask you a question and you can answer."  , so efficient, do you understand?"

    Ned nodded, and after a few seconds, he said, "yes."

    ¡°Have you never heard of a closed space station before?¡±

    "Yes."

    "Then you don't know what contraband is here?"

    "Contraband?" Ned subconsciously thought of drugs, explosives and flammable materials, or weapons But judging from the behavior of those people just now, it seems that food also counts. Why didn't kl3014 tell him in advance?

    "It's non-living things, non-durable goods." Seeing Ned's unclear look, the Asian woman frowned subconsciously, and then began to list them one by one, "Any food, seeds, animals, compressed gases, bacteria,  Algae In short, anyone but yourselfNo one alive or edible is allowed to be brought in.  "

    ¡°I still have a lot of food left,¡± Ned admitted honestly. ¡°In the engineering vehicle, it¡¯s just standard space meals.¡±

    "Did you give it to those people just now?"

    "No," said Ned, "I don't know what they want them for yet."

    "You will know later," she said, and then she stretched out her hand in the air, and an extra folder appeared out of thin air. She opened the folder and stood it up facing Ned. Only then did Ned see his photo.  On the first chapter paper, the title of this paper seems to be "**Experiment** Application Form", and the name column is filled with an unfamiliar name, "Looking at your expression, someone else can help you with the application form"  Okay, then take a good look at the agreement, think about it and then sign it, oh, please be careful, don¡¯t look away from this door before signing, just shout when you¡¯re done.¡±

    "What is this?" After coming back to his senses, Ned flipped through the folder in his hand. After just a few glances, he saw many words that made him uncomfortable, "Party B promises to voluntarily give up part of his freedom (specific details)  See Article 3), abide by the experimental regulations, actively cooperate with the experimental process, and are not allowed to withdraw midwaywithout endangering lifeexcept in the case of the following force majeure factors"

    Ned¡¯s first thought was to question kl3014, but when he turned on the computer, he still hesitated, and finally decided to read the agreement carefully.

    Although there are many terms in the agreement, they are clearly organized. The entire terms are just like the most standard legal documents. They cover the rights and obligations that both parties to the contract need to understand - if this agreement is signed, Ned will be the only one who will perform it.  , and the biggest obligation is to cooperate unconditionally in the experiment within two years, and the biggest right he will get is that after two years, regardless of the success or failure of the experiment, he can obtain permanent residence in Carmel. Most of the details in the agreement  Terms are nothing more than a detailed explanation of the details encountered during the execution of the agreement, as well as the scope of application of the agreement.

    When he turned on the computer, Ned was no longer as angry as before. He also somewhat understood the reason why kl3014 brought him here - if he could obtain Carmel residency in another identity, it would be just a matter of time for him.  It meant another chance to start over. Just thinking of the urgent expressions on those people's faces when they asked about the lack of food, Ned subconsciously shuddered - it was hard for him to imagine how bad the life here was.  It will turn people into that.

    At this time, kl3014's voice appeared: "What's wrong? Didn't I remember you said that as long as you can go back, you are willing to go to jail for ten years? Now it only takes two years, just two years. In the war, who will do it after two years?"  They will all treat you as dead."

    "But you should at least let me know beforehand."

    "So what if you know?" kl3014 disagreed. "With your condition on the spacecraft, it's useless for me to say anything. If that were the case, you might not even know where you died now. Although the environment here is a bit worse  , but this is the safest place I can find for you right now."

    Ned shook his head disapprovingly: "It's not necessarily dangerous to be on Earth. There are many countries that haven't joined the Alliance yet"

    "Oh, there's something I didn't tell you before, maybe you don't know yet," kl3014 said lightly, "Just twelve, not thirteen hours ago, the enemy launched a general attack on the earth. What you said is very  Many of the countries in the coalition may no longer exist, so you should hurry up and sign the agreement in front of you. You must know that if this kind of treatment were placed on the earth now, hundreds of millions of people might not be able to grab it. Others  Don't think about anything, just remember that in this war, being able to survive is already the greatest luck."

    After Ned signed, kl3014 told him more details about this experimental project - because of Carmel's special "closed" terrain, it can be said that Ivan has been very concerned about Carmel since its founding.  How to create a completely self-circulating ecosystem. Similar implementations have been carried out on Earth before, such as the famous Biosphere 2 experiment. However, these experiments quickly failed - in less than two years, the experiment  Most animals, except cockroaches, are almost dead, because the earth's ecosystem is too complex and subtle, and humans do not yet have the ability to simulate the balance that was finally formed after the development of life on earth for hundreds of millions of years.

    Carmel's current experimental environment and the ecosystem back then have made a lot of progress - a space station completely independent of the earth, which can avoid most unnecessary interference, but in terms of its related technical reserves  , the people of Carmel did not have more than the Americans back then, so Carmel was prepared to fail before the experiment began - the reason why the contract period was two years, in addition to considering the tolerance limit of the participants  In addition, it is because Carmel's estimated experimental cycle is almost this time.
