Chapter 47 Accurate prediction
Looking at the brilliant red aurora outside the window, Councillor Li swallowed slightly.
The extremely beautiful scene in front of him made him feel a strong sense of suffocation.
The aurora predicted by Lv Yongchang has appeared, the red giant stage ten years later, and the helium flash fifteen years later...
Councillor Li shook his head and dared not think about the future scene carefully.
...
Xiaguo.
Magic City.
Zhao Zijie sat on the balcony, quietly looking at the bright moon in the sky.
The early summer evening breeze blew on his body, bringing a little coolness.
He took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the Penguin group, and skillfully found the chat group where friends were chatting.
"So boring..."
Zhao Zijie's fingers trembled slightly, and he typed a line of words on the phone.
Then, he raised his phone and recorded a video of the surrounding environment.
"I'm the only one on the open-air balcony, hey... so boring!"
Zhao Zijie's Versailles words instantly attracted everyone's contempt.
"Fuck! If I remember correctly, Lao Zhao should be in Shanghai! Such a big open-air balcony... I'm jealous!"
"Tsk! I can even imagine Lao Zhao's face when he said this!"
"Damn! Is this the world of rich people?! I don't envy him at all!"
"Boss! What do you think of my pendant?!"
"..."
Looking at the complaints that were swiping across the screen, Zhao Zijie smiled faintly.
Just as he was about to type and chat with his friends in the group, a comment attracted his attention.
"Lao Zhao, there's something wrong with the video you took!"
Zhao Zijie's expression froze slightly, and a chill came from behind him instantly!
He quickly typed on the keyboard and complained: "Fuck! Don't scare me in the middle of the night!"
It would have been better if he hadn't said this. Once he said it, the people who had just spoken in the group started talking one after another, hoping that the world would not be in chaos.
"Old Zhao, turn on the front camera of your phone and look behind you. I think I saw a face just now!"
"What face? It's clearly a white figure!"
Zhao Zijie swallowed slightly.
Although he is an atheist, he still felt a little uneasy when he saw these remarks at around 10 o'clock in the evening.
Just as he was about to leave the balcony and return to the room, the person who had just spoken spoke again.
"What are you talking about?"
"I just watched the video carefully. At 28 seconds, the moon you shot was glowing red. If you don't believe it, take a look for yourself!"
The penguin group was silent for a few seconds, and the next moment, countless messages were crazy.
"The blood moon is coming, and the world is in chaos!"
"It's over, it's over, I won't say anymore, I'm going to stock up on dry food for a few years!"
In addition to these messages that made people laugh, some people opened the video again out of curiosity.
"Wait! The moon in the video is indeed a little red!"
"I saw it too!"
Zhao Zijie frowned and looked at his phone, and subconsciously opened the video he had just shot.
As the playback progressed to 28 seconds, his pupils shrank slightly.
He saw it too!
A faint red light seemed to appear on the surface of the moon!
The next moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky.
No!
It wasn't the moon that emitted a red light!
It was the entire sky that emitted a faint red light!
He picked up the phone with trembling hands and shot another video.
"Look outside, why is the sky in the Magic City starting to glow red?!"
A few seconds after the message was sent.
"Fuck! It's the same here! I'm in Hangzhou!"
"It's the same in the mountain city!"
"The sky in the country of cherry blossoms is also glowing red!"
"..."
" As time went by, the red light in the sky became brighter and brighter.
Gradually, an extremely gorgeous red "ribbon" appeared in front of Zhao Zijie.
"Bang! "
A loud noise was heard.
The brightly lit Magic City instantly fell into darkness.
At the same time, screams came from all around.
Zhao Zijie hurriedly took out his mobile phone.
22:50.
There was no signal on the mobile phone.
...
That night, Zhao Zijie fell asleep in panic and anxiety.
The next morning, as soon as he opened his eyes, he grabbed the mobile phone on the bedside.
Thank God, there is a signal!
He tentatively pressed the switch of the bedside lamp.
The power is on!
While turning on the TV, he tried to search online what happened last night.
"According to the latest report from the Xiaguo Observatory, at about 22:42 last night, a solar flare suddenly erupted, bringing extremely strong solar winds. Therefore, at 22:50 last night, auroras of varying sizes appeared all over the world..."
"The eruption of this solar flare has caused great losses to Xiaguo, first of all, the power system..."
The host's voice sounded in Zhao Zijie's ears.
He subconsciously opened the penguin group.
999+ messages unread.
"Fuck! It's actually the Aurora!"
"That's unscientific! Don't Auroras only appear in the North and South Poles?!"
"Look, I told you to study but you insisted on herding cattle. Now you know you're wrong, right? There was a big red Aurora in 1958, but according to the description, it shouldn't be as exaggerated as this one!"
"It stands to reason that this year shouldn't be a solar active period, how could this happen..."
"How do I know? You have to ask the scientists at the observatory!"
"..."
Looking at the chat records, Zhao Zijie's panic was slightly reduced.
It turned out to be just a solar storm.
However... Looking at the "expert" on the TV station explaining the cause of the aurora in a serious manner, Zhao Zijie gradually felt a little worried.
Really, just a solar storm?
...
Compared with Xia Country, the United States suffered greater losses.
At that time, the United States was in the daytime, facing the sun.
The extremely strong solar wind not only destroyed most of the power system in the United States, but also caused several aircraft to lose contact!
Even most of the civilian satellites in the United States were destroyed by the solar wind!
No electricity, no communication equipment...
At this moment, the United States is like returning directly to the steam age!
...
Within the first ring of Beijing.
The office of the chairman of the parliament.
The scene of yesterday's meeting kept flashing in the mind of Councillor Li.
After the aurora appeared, Councillor Li initiated a vote.
The content of the vote was naturally about the "prophecy" about the sun proposed by Lv Yongchang.
Without any surprise, all the astronomy and physics professors present voted in favor.
Councillor Li frowned and tapped his knuckles lightly on the solid wood desk.
What should he do to make Xiaguo survive this disaster...
"Knock knock knock..."
There was a knock on the door.
Councillor Li was slightly startled and whispered, "Come in!"
The door of the office slowly opened, and Lv Yongchang appeared at the door.
