Eh? Do you also want to try the iron fist of the humanoid girl?

At the UN General Assembly, the new Soviet Union proposed to restart negotiations on the Treaty on the Limitation of Antiquities Weapons.

The proposal was quickly voted on, but the date was scheduled for February of the 36th year.

Rafael calculated that there might still be 10 months before the start of the negotiations. Is it a good thing to restart the restrictions? Maybe.

Moreover, from the beginning to the end of the negotiations, after the representatives of the negotiating countries sign and confirm, and finally after the effective time stipulated in the agreement, this restrictive treaty will be officially effective.

Raphael put down the book, turned off the noisy TV, and said to Lingyin who was sitting behind him: "How many times has the human brain nervous system bionic experiment failed...?"

"8 times."

“Can supercomputers built with neuromorphic chips really achieve the results everyone expects?”

Because of the experience she had, Raphael couldn't help but be skeptical of the Germans' super project.

Chapter 5 Blizzard

When Raphael woke up, he was surprised to see that the snow outside the window had not stopped yet.

The corridor outside the office window was already covered with 1 meter high snow, and the cleaning crews worked all night but still could not keep up with the snowfall.

The snow had been falling steadily, and the fierce wind was pushing it toward the driveway and parking lot, where it accumulated thicker and thicker.

Frankfurt hadn't seen such a severe snowstorm in many years. Raphael thought that the local residents had probably begun to turn from panic to despair.

Without adequate heating, the home's storage will slowly be depleted.

Perhaps there are already some couples looking at each other in frustration over how to make a living. Raphael felt sad when he thought about it while filling his coffee machine with water.

However, this is still a trouble that the Europeans brought upon themselves.

The EU should have stopped after signing the Berlin Agreement, but it continued to make a fuss about this low-price food and natural gas supply agreement, indirectly triggering the second rise of Russia and Burma.

She walked out of the office and shook Asuka's shoulder.

"Wake up, Asuka."

Asuka slowly opened his eyes and said, "What time is it now?"

"Nine twenty."

"Why is it still the same as at night?"

"Look out the window. Maybe it'll sober you up."

Asuka was standing at the window when Raphael came over with a glass of water in his hand.

"The snow outside is already one meter deep, maybe even deeper. How long will the heavy snow continue?"

"I don't know." Raphael put down the hot water and called the guard at the institute's lobby to ask them about the situation outside.

"... A lot of people called to say they couldn't come to work. But it doesn't matter, most of the staff on duty can't go home now. The ring road and the road leading to the institute are closed."

"It's a headache," Fei Niao shook his head and suggested, "Give me satellite communication rights, so I can see from a God's perspective...what's going on with the weather in Europe."

"No, the last time we used a large number of satellites, it aroused the suspicion of the CIA and the military."

"Well, it's better than being killed on the road by the Marines."

"No matter what you say, weather forecasts and global weather changes have nothing to do with us. Am I making that clear?"

Fei Niao turned his head slightly and gave the answer Raphael wanted to hear: "I understand. Satellite resources are valuable assets and cannot be used casually..."

She stretched out the last word and immediately added, "But I need to maintain the authority module embedded in the satellite system to avoid losing control."

This statement left Raphael speechless. She understood that this was necessary work.

"At least not today!" This was her last stubbornness.

"Yes, yes, you are the boss, you have the final say."

Raphael released the phone receiver and continued to talk to the guard. The laughter coming from the other end of the phone was so loud that even the birds standing a few steps away could hear it.

"…keep me informed of weather conditions and keep a four-wheel drive vehicle ready for use on business trips."

"Understood, Doctor. I will arrange it for you."

"Huh?" Asuka came up slowly and put his head on Raphael's shoulder. "...Doctor? The security guard seems to have a crush on you."

"Doctor is just a polite title for the staff of the institute, and it doesn't really mean that I am a 'doctor' with real talents and knowledge."

"Oh, do you think I will believe it?"

Asuka smiled slyly and continued to add fuel to the fire. Although he knew that Raphael had no feelings of "love", he would never let go of the opportunity to tease the host.

"Don't underestimate the social connections in the research institute!" she continued.

"Fool!"

Raphael was too lazy to argue with Fei Niao on this topic. He raised his hand to clamp Fei Niao's little head and said word by word:

"You are the ones I love the most. How are you, are you feeling better?"

"Cheating."

Seeing Asuka admit defeat, Raphael said, "If the snow continues, it will be difficult for those who have to come to work."

"There are still many such cars in the institute."

Asuka watched the coffee flowing out of the pot and thought how nice it would be if Raphael had made it himself, damn instant coffee.

The last time she drank black coffee ground and brewed by Raphael was when she lived in Kyoto. Since returning to the United States, she has never enjoyed this treatment again.

Raphael only knew how to take advantage of the research institute, and she would buy in bulk boxes of cheap instant coffee and have them delivered to her home.

Although the original freshly ground coffee doesn’t taste very good, it was made by Raphael himself!

She even suspected that Raphael's taste system was corroded by the orange juice or coffee with a strong industrial smell in the MRE.

Asuka sighed faintly and continued the host's topic: "Is there no one——"

"No, people here think that slowing down the car will solve the problem of skidding when braking. If you need to use snow chains, it must be used in places where you can ski.

Besides, Frankfurt’s snow removal work has always been good, but this year’s abnormal snowfall is beyond their ability to handle…”

“Is the situation here really that bad?”

"You can see for yourself how bad it can be."

"I can't ski, or drive a sled or sled dog."

Fei Niao spread out his hands and shook his head, flatly refusing, "Besides, if we go out in such a cold day, what if the circulating cooling system breaks down?"

"Ah, our bodies are not yet so fragile."

……

Oslo Airport, Norway.

"The damage to the aircraft is not too serious," the Wehrmacht captain pilot retorted.

"Captain, the circuit breaker explains the problem," the mechanic said, putting the circuit breaker back to its original position, and the small piece of special black film immediately swelled up.

"That's what's causing the radio failure, and that's what's causing the hydraulic failure. I think this plane will be grounded for a while, sir."

"No, it will damage the reputation of the royal family," the captain insisted.

Tomorrow is the day when the king will announce that they will improve relations with the new Soviet Union. The new Soviet side will also send people to the scene to jointly announce the normalization of relations between the two sides and the establishment of close diplomatic relations - partners.

After all, this is a six-year contract worth 6 billion euros. The general industrial robots of the new Soviet Union are the core of this foreign trade order.

The road to adjustment is difficult and arduous, but fortunately both parties have the idea of ​​changing the status quo.

The mechanic could not resist the captain pilot's request because this guy came from the royal family and the mechanic also understood that what he mentioned was very important.

But wouldn't the problem be solved if we changed to a helicopter? !

The mechanic had no choice but to agree to such an unreasonable request and wake up the other ground mechanics who were resting.

They tried several times, but because of the heavy snow in the cold winter, it took a full three hours for the spare parts to be delivered from the spare parts warehouse on the other side of the airport.

The first time I drove was an ordinary airport work commuter car, but halfway through the drive, the ground staff realized that they had to use a more powerful diesel car to deliver things to the helicopter hangar in this weather.

The repair work was extended, but it was a minor fault that only required replacing a component and starting the helicopter's engine to verify that the hydraulic system was functioning properly.

However, things suddenly became complicated.

"What's going on?" The captain used the light to see the burnt cables under the circuit breaker and was shocked and angry.

"It's possible that the circuit breaker burned out, causing the entire module circuit connected to it to burn out..."

"Do you think this is possible?"

"I can't jump to conclusions. Now I have to dismantle all the equipment in the main cockpit so that I can check all the components. This will take at least three days. You should ask them to prepare a spare plane."

The captain looked out the window. He didn't want to take off with a malfunctioning helicopter in such bad snowy weather.

"It's troublesome."

"Yes, trouble."

The mechanic squatted in the cockpit, asked the pilot to move away with disdain, and said:

"If you get us moving now, we can optimistically estimate that we'll have her flying again in three days."

"Okay, there's no need to be so nervous." The captain patted the mechanic's shoulder, "Call everyone to the officers' mess. I'll treat you tonight's supper."

"Yes, sir."

"I'll also have them connect some electrical wires and get you two high-power electric heaters. Do you want a radio?" the captain promised.

"Why not? Remember to give me a high-spec one."

"Grant your wish."

The captain walked back to the pilot dormitory in the corner of the airport with difficulty in the snow. The helicopter platform was slightly higher than the airport, and the strong wind blew away most of the snow on it, leaving the landing field still 1 meters deep, and the snow below was enough to cover a car.

God knows how that truck carrying spare parts got here.

The captain thought that his colleagues who were patrolling the periphery must be having a hard time.

"What's the situation with the plane?" the commander of the helicopter fleet asked hurriedly when he saw the captain coming back.

"Half of the panel is burned. The mechanics said they have to dismantle it and conduct a complete inspection of the helicopter's onboard systems, which will take at least three days." The captain trembled as he answered.

"?" The fleet commander was stunned for two seconds, and immediately retorted: "Our landing was not that heavy."

"I've also told the mechanic. Why don't we call them and ask them to prepare a spare machine."

"You're frozen stupid!"

The lieutenant colonel slapped the captain on the shoulder, and the captain immediately grimaced.

"I'll arrange that right away, as well as communication with the royal family. By the way, have you checked the threat assessment board?"

"There's nothing wrong in the world, I checked, sir."

In fact, it is not too peaceful, but those wars are too far away from them. The ratings look dangerous, but in fact there is no impact at all.

After all, Norway is a damn place, and few people can look up to it.

"Threat assessment" is an assessment method that the Norwegian Defense Forces learned from the US military. Originally, the federal government's warning level for dealing with various crises depends on the US military's prediction of the world's stability.

The greater the possibility of a crisis, the more human and material resources should be prepared to deal with it.

At this moment, the Norwegian Defense Forces did not find any threat to their own security, so they only needed to prepare a spare plane that could replace the king's flight at any time.

The captain made a loud phone call.

"...Yes, prepare the second plane. The first plane is grounded due to a line problem... No, we can fix it here, but it will take time."

……

In the morning, Raphael found that the weather forecast was unexpectedly accurate.

The blizzard stopped. Although the dark clouds above our heads had not yet dispersed, it was at least a pleasant surprise.

According to the cleaners at the institute, it was just a handful of dust that was randomly scattered.

As long as the weather continues to clear up, the snow will soon dissipate.

"Would you like to eat something?" Raphael asked. "I don't like working on an empty stomach."

Lingyin thought that Raphael was addicted to imitating humans. But when it came to eating, she preferred sweet cakes.

"What is your assignment from the scanning team?" she asked.
