Lighting up super-god technology in the Three-Body World

Chapter 2 The Fifth Wallfacer

During his convalescence, Jiang Fan did not feel lonely because he had Dashi and Luo Ji by his side.
Anyway, in the Three-Body World, he was an orphan who worked part-time to earn money for his undergraduate studies and had almost no friends.
Later, she even quit her job just to hook up with Luo Ji.

So, when you are in the hospital, you don't have to worry about anything else. No one will come to visit you. The source of the mobile phone messages is either China Mobile or the price of a certain product has dropped again.
On the contrary, Luo Ji, this guy has a woman come to see him today, and another woman comes to see him tomorrow. He is so lucky.

Jiang Fan and Luo Ji only lay in bed for three or two days, and when they felt their bodies were almost done, they were eager to get out of bed and move around.

The doctor's original words were that it was unclear whether other problems would arise and he recommended hospitalization for observation. So the two stayed in the hospital until Dashi brought in a few people.
"Jiang Fan, Luo Ji, someone wants to talk to you." Dashi raised his index finger and pointed it upwards, indicating that the person coming was from the higher-up.

Jiang Fan looked towards the door and saw Dashi and several men in black jackets had already opened the door and come in.
The middle-aged man in the black jacket walked up to Jiang Fan, opened the folder in his hand, and said seriously,

"Hello, Comrade Jiang Fan. I'm Chai Shao from the National Administration for Special Situations. You can call me Captain Chai. Here are my relevant information."

The information was a personal profile with a stamp on it, and the name on the stamp was: National Administration for Special Situations.

Jiang Fan retracted his gaze, looked at the man, and responded with a smile,

"Hello, Captain Chai, what can I do for you?"

Chai Shao then presented the information to Luo Ji.

"Dr. Luo Ji, please take a look too. My mission this time is related to both of you."

Luo Ji glanced at it casually and nodded.
"Please tell us, we will cooperate."

Chai Shao closed the folder.
"Then I'll make it short. The organization needs you two to go somewhere, and I'll be responsible for escorting you."

Jiang Fan felt something in his heart and looked at Chai Shao deeply.

"Where?"

Chai Shao did not hide anything and replied directly,
"Planetary Defense Directorate."

"What place is that?" Luo Ji asked.

Chai Shao said,
"You will all know sooner or later. All I can say is that it was a solemn parliament convened under the leadership of the United Nations and voted in favor of by all permanent members of the Security Council, including our country. It is of great importance."

After planning for a long time, Jiang Fan finally got the reward. He was a little excited. But in the eyes of Chai Shao and others, this was the normal reaction of a normal person when encountering a big event.

"when to go?"

"Let's set off now according to the established itinerary."

This decisive and efficient style of action is worthy of our University of Tokyo.

Jiang Fan nodded to indicate that he had no problem, then turned to look at Luo Ji, who also nodded after being surprised.

On the way to the Planetary Defense Directorate, the two separated, this was called insurance.

The Council's address, like that of the United Nations, is in the beautiful Manhattan district of New York City. This is said to be for convenience, but in fact it implies a beautiful little idea.

There are six-ton ​​stones in the meditation room, which are high-purity pig iron ore donated by Sweden. They symbolize eternity and power.
Jiang Fan and Luo Ji stayed here temporarily.
The environment is very solemn.
It makes people calm down.

Jiang Fan turned to look at Dashi and Luo Ji,
"We seem to have come to some incredible place."

Dashi has been observing his surroundings, he has developed a professional illness.
"This is a major meeting held by the United Nations that's not announced to the public. Tsk tsk tsk, this is probably the highest-level meeting my great historian will ever attend."

Luo Ji looked thoughtful.

"I just don't know why we were called here."

The door was pushed open.

An American official came in and spoke a lot in fluent English. Seeing that the three people in the room were confused, he switched to speaking in unskilled Chinese.
"Welcome to America. My name is Canter Brontor. You can ask me for anything during the meeting."

After Kant finished speaking, he gave Jiang Fan and Luo Ji a smile with his fat, greasy face, which he thought was friendly, but his eyes were full of greed and yearning.

Power, even personnel appointments that are about to be announced but have not yet been announced, can make many speculators begin to express their attitudes, and Kante is just one of them.

Jiang Fan glanced at Luo Ji and signaled him to come out and talk.

Luo Ji glared at him unconvincedly and asked, "Why should I go?"
Jiang Fan raised his eyebrows. You are a top student and a PhD. If you don’t go, who will?
Luo Ji pursed his lips and said to Kant,
"Mr. Kant, may I ask how long we need to wait here?"

"Oh, soon, in about half an hour you will be attending the greatest meeting in the history of Blue Star," Kant glanced at Jiang Fan at the same time, "and you too."

Luo Ji continued,
"Is there anything we need to do during this time?"

"No need to do anything. If you two are interested, you can change into formal clothes."

Before Luo Ji could answer, Dashi interrupted.
"No, I'm responsible for their safety and won't accept any untested items."

Kant glanced at Dashi, his dissatisfaction was very obvious, but when he looked at Luo Ji, this emotion was well hidden.
"I respect Dr. Luo Ji's personal request."

Luo Ji, of course, chose to believe Dashi, and said,

“That’s what we mean.”

"Okay, I'll pick you up outside when the time comes. Please wait." Luo Ji nodded, so Kant took his men out, and the three people left in the room were silent.

Almost the same situation happened in other rooms. The people invited in remained the same as in the original work. They were Taylor representing the interests of the United States, Diaz representing the third world of Egypt and Africa, and Hines representing European countries.

With complicated emotions, half an hour passed in a flash.

Kant came in on time and led Jiang Fan and Luo Ji to the conference hall.

The lobby is solemn.

Those who should be seated have almost already been seated.
There is a fixed place for everyone to sit.
So Jiang Fan and Luo Ji found the seats with their names on them and sat down.

"Lao Luo, I'm really nervous, how about you?"

As expected, the two of them were sitting next to each other. Luo Ji narrowed his eyes and looked at the center, and replied to Jiang Fan,

"A little bit, but not much."

Jiang Fan curled his lips.

"Has anyone ever told you that you're pretentious?"

"I told the truth."

"cut!"

The meeting was chaired by the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Sayyid, an elegant and intellectual female politician. She walked to the center with a nearly standard stride length and spoke English with a translator.

"The 19th meeting of the Planetary Defense Council is now entering its final agenda."

“Please allow me to give a brief review here.”

"The Three-Body Crisis."

"So far, the only secret of human existence."

"The core of the Wall-Facing Project is..."

"The Wallfacers are granted great power."

"To ensure the implementation of the Wall-Facing Plan"

"The Wallfacer Act is equivalent to"

"Next, I will announce the list of wallfacers,"

"The first Wallfacer, Frederick Taylor."

"The second Wallfacer, Manuel Rey Diaz."

"The third Wallfacer, Bill Hines."

"The fourth wall-facer, Luo Ji"

"The last wall-facer, Jiang Fan!"

Every time Sai read a name, the person would stand up and face the crowd.

When it was Jiang Fan's turn to stand up, he found that he was the only person standing in the whole audience, and also the tallest person. The people below him could only look at him silently, as if they were saluting, or as if they were silently observing him.

When the five of them walked towards the podium together, Jiang Fan even felt like he was walking on clouds, with a sense of weightlessness.

Luo Ji beside him was also absent-minded. He had done all the right things, but he felt like a machine that could only act according to the program.

Sitting on the podium and becoming a wall-facer means accepting everyone's attention every minute and every second. Jiang Fan feels the pressure comes from this.

Fortunately, there was no need for the Wallfacer to give any acceptance speech. Jiang Fan couldn't make any high-sounding oaths.

The meeting was over before people were even drowsy.

The other three wall-facers except Luo Ji left surrounded by the crowd.

Jiang Fan and Luo Ji were still sitting in the chairs. Luo Ji hadn't figured it out yet, and Jiang Fan was too embarrassed to leave first.
Seeing this, Sai came up from below the stage, his not-so-broad body showing the care of a mother bird to her young, and said softly,
"The Wallfacer Project is humanity's desperate counterattack in despair. The chosen Wallfacers shoulder the future survival of seven billion humans. The pressure, like a mountain, is enough to weigh heavy on anyone."

"But no matter how heavy the stone monument is, there will always be vibrant weeds growing tenaciously until they push away or break down the stone. That's how humans are."

"If you two have any other questions, perhaps you can tell me."

Although Sai is in her fifties, time has not made her lose her beauty. Her voice is as soft and warm as when she was young.
I heard that she was not originally elected as Secretary-General, but was elected again after the ETO incident and the news of the Three-Body World broke out. It may be because she has great strength, heaviness and indomitable spirit.

And this is exactly the power that the humans on Blue Planet need in the current situation.
