Chapter 20
About half an hour later, Chen Xing'an arrived at the scene of the incident. On the way here, she couldn't understand why Li Kaiyang would meet him on the side of the road, but seeing the fine wounds all over his body, she generally understood.

"What's going on? There are so many special police officers."

The heavily armed special police around cast a layer of tension on the night.

Li Kaiyang roughly recounted the situation and his own conjectures. After hearing this, Chen Xingan handed over his mobile phone and said, "It's related to the Science Council again!"

"again?"

"Old Wu was invited by the Science Council to fly directly to New York. After getting off the plane, he lost contact until he sent a message an hour ago. The current situation is very bad."

The person who sent the message was Mr. Wu's accompanying secretary, and the message sent across tens of thousands of kilometers was very simple:
[Professor Chen, Wu Lao’s original words: Take Xiao Li to the Wuyi mining base, you are responsible]

"I've reported the news, but I still can't get in touch with Mr. Wu."

Before coming here, Chen Xingan had tried various methods, including contacting his scientist friends in New York. Without exception, all of them came to nothing, but there was no news on social media or news platforms.

The Wuyi Mining Base is a national key project, and Mr. Wu has always been in charge of it. It is not just as simple as grabbing ore, but bypassing all procedures in such a hurry, and handing over with only a dozen-character text messages, Chen Xingan has a bad feeling .

Like a will.

Something big must have happened in New York.

"When to set off?"

After Li Kaiyang read the news, it was hard not to connect the two things. If something really happened to the Science Council, Mr. Wu, who was at the center of the storm, would definitely be the most dangerous.

"The sooner the better, but...you heal your injury first, I'll go to the base first."

Chen Xingan hesitated to speak, his condition was obviously not suitable for running around.

Li Kaiyang looked at the overturned van at No. 24, and said thoughtfully, "What if a large truck full of goods wants to pass through the height-limited bridge hole?"

"what?"

"What will the driver do if the truck must pass through the bridge hole, but he knows that the limit is exceeded?"

"Unloading."

"Yes, unload."

Li Kaiyang's face sank, the warning monument is the bridge opening with a height limit, it is self-evident who is the goods.

The worst guess is that someone on Earth is hunting down scientists, especially university scholars like Mr. Wu who stand at the forefront of the planet.

"Wait a minute, if our idea comes true, you are also in danger now, has Bole contacted you?"

"At the project meeting in the morning, he met several people, including me."

Chen Xingan told the truth.

In the list that Bole made an appointment to meet, several of them were colleagues who came to meet Li Kaiyang on their own initiative in the morning. He opened the address book and hung up the phone one by one.

"No answer, no answer, still no answer."

Five in a row, none of them responded.

There is the last one left, the person Li Kaiyang doesn't want to contact the most, Chang Chen.

He took a deep breath and pressed the dial button.

The panoramic restaurant on the top floor of Ludao Cabinn Hotel.

Here you can overlook the night view of the most prosperous area of ​​Ludao.

With the warm voice of Miss Yingbin, Xia Yi and Chang Chen welcomed their long-awaited guest, Bole, the vice president of the United Nations Science Council.

Bole looked much more relaxed than during the day, and the heavy dark suit was replaced by a Cuban-collared shirt and beach pants, like a beetle dazzled, his military demeanor disappeared without a trace.

The evening invitation was proposed by him, but as the host, he was late.

After waiting for the welcoming lady to bring the heavy door of the banquet hall, the corners of Bole's mouth turned up slightly, and he put on a smooth American bureaucratic posture, and said, "Academician Xia, congratulations, you now have a student selected for the Lighthouse Project .”

"Professor Chang, oh, no, you will be called a hero soon, and you will be the spark for all mankind."

Wearing thousands of clothes, flattering but not flattering, although the two masters and apprentices have been in high positions for a long time, they are inevitably a little happy in the face of such flattery.

Xia Yi originally thought that after seeing Li Kaiyang's achievements, Chang Chen would no longer have the slightest possibility of impacting the Lighthouse Project, but who knows that the chief person in charge of the project contacted them personally and made an appointment here.

Exquisite dishes were served one after another, followed by a feast, and Bo Le changed into a white wine glass as the Romans did. Based on his experience, he knew very well that some things can only be said after drinking.

During the dinner, Chang Chen's cell phone rang several times. After seeing the string of familiar and unfamiliar numbers, he simply threw the cell phone into the trash can. Now he doesn't want to see this person at all.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, when everyone's ears were warm, Bole put down the tableware and showed his fangs, "You two, do you know the true meaning of the Lighthouse Project?"

"Select elite scientists?"

"Elite? Hahaha," Bole's mood began to fluctuate under the influence of alcohol, "If you are an elite, why are you sitting here?"

Xia Yi's swallowing movements were directly choked by his words. He put down his teacup and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Mr. Bole, what do you mean?"

"Oh, I'm sorry," Bo Le said without changing his expression, "I mean, your student is far inferior to that named Li Kaiyang."

Boom!
Chang Chen's fist slammed on the table, and his cheeks flushed red from the rush of energy and blood.

"Don't worry, my hero," Bole calmed the emotions of the two, "Listen to what I have to say."

His tone was normal, but it contained irresistible arrogance. Chang Chen, who prided himself on himself, turned into a little wolf with its tail between its legs, just staring at him angrily.

"Maybe first tell you what the warning monument is."

As Mr. Wu said in the Ludao Research Institute, Bole said it again to the two, "It is a beacon, a guard of the prison. When humans cross the red line, the warning monument will be activated, bringing extraterrestrial fleet of life."

"There is no doubt that human beings must die in this battle. Therefore, in order to prevent some unnecessary technological development, we have to kill some scientists, some of the most unwilling moths."

"When the lighthouse is lit, these moths will rush to swarm. The purpose of our HFO members is to sweep the moths into the garbage dump."

HFO organization, full name Human Forever Organization, human beings live forever.

Cold sweat dripped from Chang Chen's back. He understood Bole's meaning. For the survival of civilization, human beings are doomed to stand on their laurels and stay forever on remote planets on the third arm of the Milky Way.

Anyone who tries to struggle is considered an enemy of the HF organization.

And the HFO organization, which can plan the entire planet, has become a behemoth across different countries.

"So, you get it, my hero, the organization doesn't need smart people."

Bole stood by the panoramic glass window, overlooking the flickering Ludao City, but none of the starlight in the sky fell into his eyes.
