#1044 - Chapter 1044 The black hole disappeared! Remember history? You call that history? !
On the other end of the phone, General Wang spoke very quickly.
Chen Hao's expression was noticeably serious.
"Go ahead and get busy," Xia Qingmo said softly.
"Okay!" Chen Hao nodded, just about to turn and leave when he suddenly looked at Zhang Chunru: "Mr. Zhang, do you have time to come along?"
Huh?
Zhang Chunru was completely bewildered.
Anyone could see that an emergency had occurred: given Chen Hao's status, anything he considered an emergency must be a national matter. Why would he ask her to come along for something like that? It didn't make sense!
The two of them sat inside the Xuanjia cockpit.
With the Xuanjia's flight speed, it only took a blink of an eye to get from the city to the military base in the suburbs.
Zhang Chunru was curious, but because there wasn't much time, she couldn't ask in detail.
Until the Xuanjia landed…
"Mr. Chen, you're always dealing with important matters, I… can I be of any help?" She was very puzzled.
"I'll explain in detail later."
"Okay!"
Soon after.
Zhang Chunru followed behind him, walking into the base's information center.
In fact, the base had contacted Chen Hao first, but his phone was busy, so they contacted General Wang.
"Commander!" The person in charge immediately stepped forward upon seeing Chen Hao enter.
He saw Zhang Chunru and stopped talking.
"It's okay, speak freely!" Chen Hao said in a deep voice.
"Please take a look at this first."
The person in charge signaled to a subordinate, and the screen's display immediately changed.
It was the Gliese 832 star system, 16 light-years away.
It wasn't real-time monitoring, but a video playback: using monitoring equipment sent over there, the footage was transmitted back to Earth in real-time using quantum communication technology—this monitoring video footage had occurred half an hour ago.
During the video playback, the person in charge explained: "We have been monitoring that black hole…"
Yesterday.
The central region's black hole activated.
The center of the battlefield was instantly swallowed, followed by Gliese 832c.
After that, the black hole continued to expand, and its suction force also continued to increase.
Being only hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from Gliese 832c, that planet was quickly devoured.
But to say the entire star system…
The nearest planet was still tens of millions of kilometers away.
The star was even further!
The black hole was expanding.
The suction force was increasing.
But this required a process: Chen Hao only saw Gliese 832c being swallowed yesterday, and he didn't have the patience to wait for it, so he left it to the professionals to monitor.
Five hours ago, that is, this afternoon, the black hole's gravity had increased to the point where it was swallowing the star.
The star was gone!
"After swallowing the star, the black hole began to shrink, returning to its initial state."
The person in charge explained: "But half an hour ago…"
Suddenly!
Chen Hao, staring at the playback, widened his eyes.
The black hole, disappeared!
After swallowing the star, the black hole returned to the controlled, non-activated state he had seen in the center of the battlefield—its volume greatly reduced, the accretion disk and other features disappeared, and for the next few hours, it remained motionless.
Now it suddenly disappeared for no reason?
"Have any wormhole jump fluctuations been detected?" Chen Hao asked quickly.
"No."
"It disappeared…"
Chen Hao couldn't understand it.
It was normal that he didn't understand.
The high-intelligence life in the black hole had a technological level far beyond the Hunter civilization. For the current Chen Hao, some things were beyond his comprehension.
"Like this!" He had an idea and instructed: "Using remote micro wormhole generators, with Gliese 832 as the origin, launch more monitoring equipment in a range of several light-years around—greatly expand the monitoring range!"
"Yes!" The person in charge saluted and immediately ordered the operation.
Remote micro wormhole generators were at the base.
There were also plenty of monitoring devices.
There was no need to worry about power supply, as the Dyson Ring's power could now support opening multiple wormholes.
Beside him.
Zhang Chunru was getting more and more confused.
She was a writer and historian, and the things Chen Hao was dealing with now were related to astronomy and astrophysics. In this regard… she only had the most basic, common-sense level of knowledge, she didn't understand at all.
So…
Why did Chen Hao bring her here?
"Mr. Zhang, shall we talk somewhere else?" Chen Hao smiled.
"Okay!"
…
Ten minutes later.
Chen Hao didn't leave the base. The two of them sat next to an open space.
Not far away, the wormhole generator was working, constantly opening remote micro wormholes and launching monitoring equipment.
Chen Hao handed over a can of Jianlibao with both hands: "Mr. Zhang."
"How about… we don't have to be so polite?" Zhang Chunru asked tentatively.
She knew that Chen Hao's use of 'Mr.' was a sign of genuine respect, but it not only sounded particularly distant, but also felt a bit strange.
"Okay!" Chen Hao sat next to her, opened the Jianlibao, and took a sip: "Sister Ru, China is a disaster-prone nation. Not to mention those thousands of years ago, hundreds of years ago, there have been many disasters in the last ten years."
Alien civilization attacks!
Hunter civilization invasions!
These were things even ordinary people knew.
"Wait a moment!" As a historian, Zhang Chunru was very rigorous and quickly corrected: "The things that have happened in recent years… can't all be blamed on China, right?"
Alien civilization attacks caused hundreds of millions of deaths.
First the virus.
Then the tsunami.
But after the virus outbreak, China was the first to respond, and the death toll was very low—on the contrary, many other countries died.
The tsunami was even more unnecessary to mention, it didn't happen in China at all.
These two things can't be counted as China being 'disaster-prone', at most they can only be counted as disasters for all mankind.
China was actually the least damaged.
"The problem is, now there's only China left," Chen Hao grinned.
"…"
Zhang Chunru was a little confused.
When alien civilizations attacked the surface, the countries hadn't merged yet, right?
"Sister Ru, I have a job here, I wonder if you're interested?"
"Job?"
Just now he said China was disaster-prone.
How did it turn to a job?
"I think that since the whole world has been incorporated into China, a new chapter should be opened, and there should be a new history."
The next moment.
His face was filled with righteous indignation, as if he had suffered a great injustice: "Alien civilizations attacked our China, the Hunter civilization even wanted to carry out a devastating blow to the whole world—how can we forget the history of blood and tears?!"
Zhang Chunru was dumbfounded.
She finally understood what Chen Hao wanted to do.
Chinese people have a characteristic: when they expand their territory and win battles, they always gloss over it, but once they are attacked or invaded, they will definitely write about it extensively, fearing that the whole world won't know, fearing that future generations will forget.
And use this kind of history of being bullied as propaganda for the country being subjected to humiliation.
Tell descendants that we have suffered so much humiliation, and future generations must be ashamed and courageous, and remember the history of humiliation.
"A nation that does not respect history and does not remember history is sad and has no future!"
Chen Hao looked at Zhang Chunru, his indignation overflowing: "Sister Ru! I invite you to join the compilation work related to the new history of China, your name will be like Chinese history, becoming the most watched existence!"
