"About ten minutes ago."
It just happened. When he saw the Polaris appear in the sky, he went to find Shinoda, and then the two of them had a few words, which lasted no more than ten minutes.
"Then I don't think so. Because I was here ten minutes ago, and the Polaris has been stationary in the sea and has not moved."
"what?"
Beidou would doubt it if it was someone else, but he completely believed what Lingya said.
Gaia had no reason to lie to him.
But that doesn't make sense, unless he doesn't believe his own eyes or his own brain.
Was it really his eyes and brain that were at fault? Was he hypnotized by the Yabo people?
"Brother Beidou, are you sure you saw the Polaris flying in the sky?"
"Of course, I'm sure. I saw it yesterday while on patrol, and I saw it again just now."
"Well, Beidou-nii saw the Polaris flying in the sky, but Shinoda-nii didn't see it, and the TAC team's radar didn't detect anything. Is it possible that Beidou-nii, Shinoda, and the TAC team are all right?"
"Huh? What does this mean?"
“The Polaris did go up into the sky, but at the same time, the Polaris didn’t go up into the sky.”
Beidou didn’t understand. Is this a popular word game among primary school students nowadays?
"Don't you understand? Brother Beidou must have heard that saying, when in doubt, use quantum mechanics. Huh? No, okay."
[When in doubt, use quantum mechanics. When you don’t have enough imagination, use parallel universes.] It seems that this sentence is not popular in this era.
"Look, the Polaris flew into space, and it either happened or it didn't happen. Both are possible events. You and the others just entered two different observation lines."
"What does this mean? Is God throwing dice?"
"Ah, so Brother Beidou is from the Einstein school."
God does not play dice - this is a famous saying of Einstein.
Chapter 141 God's Dice
In the early 1921th century, Einstein and Bohr were both leading figures in quantum mechanics. When Einstein won the Nobel Prize in , the Nobel Committee cited his contributions to the photoelectric effect and quantum mechanics. As for the theory of relativity, there was no mention of it.
However, it was such a leading figure who changed his tune in the 1940s and became a pioneer in opposing quantum mechanics.
Like Sir Newton, who discovered gravity and founded basic mechanics, Einstein believed in theology and was a believer in God. However, after Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and Born's wave function probability formula were proposed one after another, Einstein's worries reached their limit. Especially after Schrödinger's hypothetical experiment and the half-dead cat became popular, Einstein could no longer tolerate it. It is worth mentioning that Schrödinger's cat was a hypothesis he proposed in a private letter to Einstein in order to persuade Einstein to accept quantum mechanics again.
But it definitely had the opposite effect. The cat completely irritated him.
The omniscient and omnipotent God created all things and established the truth of the world. Everything should revolve around the truth of the universe, not random probability! Oh my God, probability! As the most basic truth of the world, it should be a simple and beautiful formula like E=MC?
In any case, the ultimate pursuit of science, the ultimate and most perfect formula that symbolizes the truth of the universe should contain an equal sign, something certain. How can it be probability?
So, he said the most classic words:
[Quantum mechanics is of course amazing, but my inner voice tells me that it is not the essential thing. This theory explains a lot, but it has not brought us closer to the "ancient" secret. In any case, I believe that the Creator is not as random as rolling dice. ]
But Einstein was slapped in the face, and it was proven that the Creator was random. In Lingye's previous life, quantum mechanics had already been widely used, and quantum locks that were absolutely unbreakable, quantum computers with unlimited theoretical computing power, and quantum communications that were not restricted by the speed of light and could respond instantly no matter how far away, were all becoming a reality step by step.
Even if it has not been fully realized, the theory has undoubtedly been proven to be correct.
During the long night, no other strange things happened on the Polaris.
Because no super beast was found, Ling went back early.
"Call me if you need anything. You know my cell phone number."
Beidou nodded. He did know Reiya's number. It was reassuring to be able to contact Gaia at any time. However, Beidou had decided to investigate the Polaris on his own.
In the early morning, the sea was dyed red by the morning glow. When Saburo Shinoda woke up and went to the deck, he heard the sound of a motorboat. He walked to the railing and looked down the ship. He saw Hokuto Seiji driving a motorboat around the Polaris.
Shinoda walked onto the quay.
"Don't leave yet, Beidou. You haven't given up your crazy thoughts yet?"
Beidou stopped the speedboat that he had rented early in the morning against the quay.
"I have found evidence, evidence that the Polaris did fly in the sky!"
"What, you are still saying such things!"
Hearing Beidou say this, Xiaotian was furious. Is it fun to make fun of other people's dreams? He had been patient for a day, but the other party was endless, and was undoubtedly provoking him again and again.
"Look at the bilge of the cruise ship! Didn't you notice? There are scorch marks there. Those are only found on space shuttles. Ordinary fire can't burn like this. These are scorch marks formed when the metal of the ship rubs against the air in the atmosphere when it is flying at high speed!"
"The Bibu of the cruise ship? What the hell are you talking about?"
"It's Xibu! You illiterate!" Beidou also lost his patience.
This was the evidence that Beidou had finally found, but the person he was arguing with only knew a few more words than an illiterate person. Shinoda didn't care about evidence or not.
"It's just paint peeling off. How new is that? It's been stopped for several years. It's weird to see a piece of paint peeling off? I know. I know it completely now. You bastard are just making fun of me."
Shinoda said as he jumped onto the cruise ship and kicked towards Bokuto.
I didn't expect the other party to be so brutal and start a fight right away. Even Beidou, who could fight with aliens, was kicked on the head by mistake and fell to the ground.
But he didn't care about this. There was really nothing to care about with a fool.
What Beidou cares about is that he finally found the evidence. Shinoda doesn't understand, but the captain and Dr. Kiji certainly understand and know what it means.
Ling was actually right.
This is undoubtedly the method used by the Yabo people. They are breeding an unimaginable super beast here.
Quantum mechanics. What the hell is that? He used to despise Shinoda for being illiterate, but now he realizes that he is illiterate too.
After all, he only graduated from college. Compared with Shinoda who dropped out of college, he was just an older brother making fun of his younger brother.
However, if he doesn't understand, someone else will. The TAC team's research department, headed by Dr. Kiji, is composed of elites in the scientific community. He only needs to be responsible for passing on the information.
So Beidou didn't bother to fight with Shinoda, and twisted his hand back and easily strangled his neck, pinning the passionate young man down so that he couldn't move. With his other hand, he took out the communicator.
"This is Beidou, headquarters, please answer! Headquarters, please answer if you hear me!"
However, after shouting several times, half a minute passed and there was no sound in the communicator. Beidou also realized what had happened.
"Oh no, the signal is blocked! Hey, Shinoda, do you have a landline phone on the ship?"
Of course there are usually no landline telephones on ships, but Shinoda's ship has been converted into a restaurant during the day and a bar at night. In order to facilitate daily ordering and reservations, Beidou guessed that he would most likely install a telephone line.
Shinoda hadn't realized what was happening yet and was still struggling, trying to break free from Beidou's arms.
"Stop it, I'm talking to you about serious matters!"
"Business? Business is that if I don't beat you up, I'm not called Shinoda Saburo."
"If your name is not Saburo Shinoda, what is it?"
"Just call him, yes, let's call him Tokotaro!" Shinoda casually said the name of a person who looked exactly like him that he had heard before.
Beidou didn't want to mess around with him, the radio signal was blocked, he just wanted to find a phone line to contact headquarters, or call Lingye.
But at this moment, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the shore.
The cliff collapsed, and a huge super beast walked out.
This is it? The secret of the Yabo people, is this the super beast they are breeding?
It was a strange super beast, with two tentacles on its head, which were obviously insect organs. Its mouth was a long proboscis, its hands were like the blade arms of a mantis, and many parts of its body also showed insect characteristics.
Oh no, it was undoubtedly this super beast that blocked the surrounding signals. It didn't want to transmit the information back, or it had other purposes. Beidou felt that the other party's target was him.
"Do you have a landline telephone on board?"
"Yes, let me go! The phone is at the bar counter, you know, the lobby with the frosted glass ceiling with the North Star pattern."
"understood!"
Beidou let go of Shinoda, jumped off the motorboat and ran towards the cruise ship. As he ran, he did not forget to shout to Shinoda:
"Leave quickly, the super beast is targeting this place, go and take shelter!"
"That won't do!" Shinoda's stubborn temper came up, "The Polaris is my life, I can't let it destroy this ship!"
Looking at Shinoda who ran onto the boat with him, Beidou really didn't know what was wrong with him.
"What can you do? Fight with the super beast?"
"Huh? Do you think I'm stupid? Why are humans and super beasts fighting each other? Of course I'm going to drive this ship away."
After being asked this by Shinoda, Beidou really felt that he was the fool.
"But the boat is tied up with more than a dozen chains. How can you sail it?"
This is indeed a problem. Each of these chains is as thick as an adult's arm, and it is impossible to open them with ordinary methods. However, if you want to secure a cruise ship on the sea, you need such thick chains.
"Of course I have thought of that. I can use explosives to blow the chains apart."
"Explosives? Where did you get the explosives?"
"Hey, that's new. Why can't I have explosives? There's plenty of explosives under this boat. Anyway, there was a lot of explosives hidden in the boat when I rented it."
Beidou felt that he was probably wrong about why the Polaris was stranded here.
With so many explosives installed, what exactly does the owner of the ship do? We need to investigate thoroughly after we kill the super beast.
And this guy Shinoda, he actually opened a bar on a pile of explosives? Hell Bar?
But before that, using explosives to blow up the chains is indeed a feasible method.
After the two men ran onto the boat, they split into two groups, one went to the bar to look for a phone, and the other went to the bottom of the cabin to look for explosives.
The super beast was approaching the sea step by step.
Beidou quickly found a landline phone at the bar counter. He picked up the receiver and dialed Lingye's cell phone.
He had memorized the number deliberately, so he could remember it. The call was quickly connected, and there was a beep-beep sound, indicating that the call was being answered.
However, after two rings, the call was disconnected before the other party could pick up the phone.
"Oh no, the landline has also been cut off!"
The super beast was very close, and the sound of the earth shaking could be heard. Nan Xizi was not there, so they could not merge into Ace. And because he was on vacation, Beidou didn't even have his TAC gun with him.
Are we really going to fight a super beast? You must be kidding.
He had absolutely no means of resisting the super beast.
