The imprint of the universe and the return of all things

Section 1. Scary Woman

In the"Aman no Kakuya" laboratory in Tokyo, Kenichi Itoseki called Iori Yagami immediately after closing the wormhole.

On the phone, he said to Iori Yagami ecstatically:"Old man, come to the laboratory, I succeeded! I created a micro wormhole! My efforts probably touched Santa Claus, so he came to the laboratory on Christmas Eve You sent me this super Christmas gift, haha."

Iori Yagami on the other end of the phone said in disbelief:"You said that...Is what you said true? Did you really do it?"

Ito said:"Of course it's true. I just saw the micro wormhole with my own eyes through the camera. If you don’t believe it, you can come and see it for yourself. By the way, I have found the key parameter value. I plan to name it after you. It will be called"Iori Parameter". How about it? Sounds pretty good.

Iori Yagami said with a choked voice:"It's great, it's really great."...it's really a miracle.....Ito, you did a great job, thank you, thank you...thank you for your hard work."

Ito said with a smile:"Hurry up and buy a bottle of good wine and come over. We have to celebrate tonight. Yagami tried to calm down as soon as possible, and then said in a slightly nervous tone:"Ito, listen up, I will rush to the laboratory right away, and you will wait for me there." Before that, don’t tell anyone about this, especially Shibata, and be sure to keep it confidential! Ito said with some confusion:"Shibata went home from work very early today, and other employees also went back one after another. Now I am the only one left in the operation room, and I have no chance to tell others about this matter." But, having said that, isn’t Shibata a representative sent by our partners? Why should we hide him?"

Iori Yagami said:"I can't tell you now. Anyway, I'll explain it to you when I get to the lab"

"Okay, I get it, I'm here for you."Ito hung up the phone, vaguely feeling that the situation was abnormal. Yagami seemed to have something important to tell him, but what was it?

Then, two hours passed. Yagami still did not show up.

Ito began to worry a little. , so he called Yagami's number. But no matter how he called, he could not contact Yagami, which made him feel more and more uneasy.

At this moment, Shibata suddenly came to the laboratory, followed by a young woman. The woman was about 20 years old. She had good looks and a light body. She looked like a beauty at first glance. She was wearing a tight-fitting leather suit, with glamorous makeup on her face, and her every move revealed an air of difficulty. Shibata stared straight at Ito and said to Ito with a straight face:"Professor Yagami won't come tonight, you don't have to wait for him anymore. We already know that you just successfully experimented, let's take a look at your results."

Ito was very panicked after hearing what Shibata said, and quickly asked Shibata:"How did you know? Where is Professor Yagami now? What did you do to him? Shibata said calmly:"We have been monitoring your communications. We heard what you just said to Professor Yagami on the phone." Professor Yagami seems to want to monopolize the results of the cooperation between the two parties. Now he has been invited by our people to Mr. Muto Ryu. Mr. Muto Ryu has many things to talk to him about."

"How can you invade our privacy and monitor our communications at will."Ito protested

"Huh, if it weren't for this, I'm afraid we would be fooled by you like fools now. Okay, stop talking nonsense, get started, let me see the wormhole you created." Shibata urged.

Ito knew Yagami very well and knew that Yagami was not a person who broke his word. Yagami tried his best to conceal the experimental results of the two people from the anonymous consortium. There must be legitimate reasons, and he definitely did not want to monopolize the results. Although he still didn't know what the reason was, he had secretly made up his mind that the people from this anonymous consortium must not get the results of the two of them, otherwise, Yagami Valley would be very disappointed.

Thinking of this, Ito had an idea, Suddenly burst out laughing. He smiled and said:"Actually, you are really fooled by me like fools now. Of course, this was not my intention, but a big misunderstanding made by you. In fact, I was just joking with Professor Yagami just now, trying to trick him into buying a bottle of wine to accompany me. After all, I am too bored and lonely to spend Christmas Eve here alone, but I didn’t expect that I would deceive you instead. coming. In fact, I did not create a wormhole at all. Mr. Shibata, you should be very clear about how low the probability of creating a wormhole is. How could it be possible to succeed so easily? This is more difficult than winning the lottery jackpot.."

Shibata is an expert in physics and knows that the probability of successfully creating a wormhole is indeed extremely low, so he is skeptical of Ito's words. But the young woman standing next to Shibata suddenly said categorically:"You are lying! I can tell."She took out a small dagger from her leather jacket, played with it in her hand, and said with a grim smile to Ito:"You'd better be honest, otherwise, I have many ways to make you tell the truth. If you don't want to bleed, just cooperate."

Ito looked at the small dagger dancing on the fingertips of the young woman, and his face suddenly turned pale. He didn't expect that the matter would be so serious, to the point of endangering his life and safety. Seeing this,

Shibata was also very worried that the young woman really didn't agree with her words. Just start hurting Ito and make things get out of hand. The success of the entire wormhole technology research plan depends on Ito alone. If Ito is not lying and hurts him now, he will refuse to do so in the future. If you are willing to work, then the whole plan will be ruined.

Therefore, Shibata quickly glanced at the young woman to signal her not to be impulsive, and then said to Ito:"This is Miss Sakura Muto, she was sent by our company to assist me. To check the results of this experiment, she was just joking with you, don't take it seriously. However, it is very easy to find out whether you are lying. As long as you retrieve the data and information saved from the experiment just now, you can know the truth. Therefore, you'd better cooperate with us and don't think about any tricks."

Ito knows that if he continues to lie, they will definitely be exposed, and it may anger them, and his life may be in danger. Therefore, there is no point in continuing to lie. But if the key parameters are handed over to them, the consequences may be It was unimaginable that the young woman did not look like a good person.

In desperation, Ito had a flash of inspiration and thought of a way to escape.

Ito pretended to be helpless and said:"Well, it seems that I still can't hide it from Mr. Shibata. Okay, I admit it, I lied. It was Professor Yagami who asked me to hide it from you. I don’t know what the old man was thinking. We are partners, and it is natural to share the results.

Then, while walking to the console to perform experimental operations, he continued:"You are so eager to see the wormhole, I will show it to you now." However, it should be noted in advance that this is only the preliminary result of research on wormhole transmission technology, and it is still far from the final mature technology."

Muto Sakura watched Ito start the instrument on the console obediently, then put the small dagger back into the leather jacket, and said proudly:"That's right, obeying us is a wise choice, and anyone who resists us will never do well. end."

Ito ignored what Sakura Muto said and quickly operated the instrument. After two minutes, he turned back and motioned for Shibata and Sakura Muto to approach the console and said:"Come over and take a look, the wormhole will be there soon. It's about to be turned on."

Shibata and Sakura Muto quickly approached the console, their eyes fixed on the screen, expecting the unprecedented wormhole to appear.

At this moment, Ito's body suddenly jumped backwards, and immediately jumped out without stopping. Turning around, she ran towards the exit of the operation room, which was about twenty meters away from the console.

Muto Sakura immediately realized that something was wrong, and quickly turned around and chased after her. Suddenly, a dazzling beam of light passed between the two of them, and then went up and down. It shook rapidly, as if forming a light curtain, separating the two people.

Muto Sakura was startled by this beam of light, stopped, and took a closer look, only to find that the beam of light came from the outside of the operating room, passing through It came in through the thick wall. Wherever the beam scratched the wall of the operating room, there were cracks with severe burn marks. Only when Ito ran straight to the exit near the exit did he dare to look back at Muto Sakura and Shibata's reaction. HeSeeing that Muto Sakura seemed to want to break through the"light curtain" to chase her, she quickly stopped her and said,"Stop it, idiot, that is a high-energy particle beam that can break even thick walls. If you are hit by it, you will definitely die.""

It turns out that Ito did not use the Hadron Collider to generate a wormhole just now, but used the giant accelerating tube inside it to create a high-energy particle beam, and adjusted the direction and angle of the collider's accelerating tube to make the high-energy particles The beam is emitted just in the direction of the middle of the operating room, and at the same time, the high-energy particle beam is continuously swept up and down to form a"light curtain.""

"hateful! You bastard, stop being so smart. Sakura Muto cursed angrily, quickly pulled out a gun from the inside of her clothes, and shouted at Ito:"If you dare to take another step, I will kill you.""

Ito didn't expect Sakura Muto to be so ferocious. He carried a gun with him and had to stand still near the exit. But he didn't panic because he knew he had another chance to escape. However, it would take some time. Get ready.

Shibata shouted to Ito from the console:"Ito, you can't escape, tell me quickly how to turn off this high-energy particle beam. Ito pretended to be scared and said,"Don't shoot. I'll tell you how to turn it off. Please, don't shoot... I will cooperate with you." I don't want to die yet, I still have a lot of things I want to do. In my entire life, I have never climbed Mount Fuji, nor been to Hokkaido for a hot spring bath, nor have I gone to see a sumo wrestling match. Also, I have always wanted to visit Osaka. I heard that there are……"

"enough! Stop talking nonsense and tell me what to do!"Shibata shouted sternly,"Do you want to delay time? I tell you, no one can save you."

As soon as Shibata finished speaking, another high-energy particle beam suddenly penetrated into the operating room. This particle beam had a different direction from the previous particle beam. It cut across the entire operating room longitudinally, from the exit to the exit. The direction of the console.

This high-energy particle beam was actually preset by Ito just now. It was intended to destroy the console and destroy all experimental data. He didn't want Shibata and Muto Sakura to get those experimental data, so he thought This method. And now, it happened to help him escape.

After the console was swept by the particle beam, it was severely damaged. A harsh explosion sounded from inside the machine of the console, attracting the attention of Shibata and Muto Sakura. In the past, the two of them turned back to check the situation. Ito took the opportunity to rush out of the operating room door.

When Muto Sakura turned back to look at Ito, Ito had already disappeared, and she yelled angrily.

Section 2. Buried Secrets

Ito ran out of the laboratory in one breath, stumbled to the parking lot, and started his car in a hurry.

Although he knew that Muto Sakura and the two were still trapped in the operating room and could not get out in a short time, he was still worried that their accomplices might be ambushing nearby, so he converted the car from unmanned driving mode to manual mode. Driving mode, slam on the accelerator and drive the car away as fast as possible.

In the car, Ito took deep breaths rhythmically while reciting pi in his mind."π=3.**79...."

This is his own method to calm himself down quickly. In the past, whenever he encountered difficulties or dangers, as long as he repeated this for a few rounds, he could eliminate the negative emotions and gradually regain his composure.

Soon, Ito woke up from the panic. His mind also became clearer, and he suddenly recalled an incident two months ago, which may be related to the current situation.

At noon one day two months ago, Ito came to Yagami's office at Tokyo University because he wanted to report the progress of the experiment to Yagami. Yagami suddenly became very interested and forced Ito to the window, asking Ito to accompany him to enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window. Outside the window of Yagami's office, there is the famous ginkgo scenery of Tokyo University. The golden ginkgo trees all over the campus surround the simple and solemn buildings on the campus. The ginkgo leaves fall one after another with the autumn wind, as if a golden carpet is spread on the ground.

Iori Yagami pointed to a huge century-old ginkgo tree under the office building and said with emotion:"Ito, I have no relatives or friends in this life. You are the only person I can trust. I am buried under that big tree. A box, and the box contains a secret of mine. If something unexpected happens to me one day, I hope you can dig out that box."

Ito felt that Yagamiya's words were a bit baffling, and after a moment, he said,"Should you? Could it be that you have offended someone? Why do you say it as if someone wants to harm you?"

Yagami shook his head and smiled bitterly:"Maybe I am getting older and become sentimental. I have been worried about the future lately."

Ito asked :"What's the secret in the box? Could it be your life savings, and you plan to leave it to me. If that's the case, it would be great, haha."

Yagami sighed with a complicated expression on his face. :"You will naturally know when the time comes. Alas, I hope that day will not come."

At that time, Ito did not pay attention to this matter. Looking back now, he feels that the box may be an important clue that will allow him to Find out what Iori Yagami is hiding. So, he immediately changed direction and headed to Tokyo University.

After arriving at Tokyo University, he walked through the quiet campus at night and came to the foot of the century-old ginkgo tree. After some careful searching, he found a strange-looking piece of soil under the tree. Since he couldn't find any tools, he had to dig out the soil with his bare hands. After two or three minutes of digging, he found the box.

After Ito got the box, he quickly returned to the car, put the car back into unmanned driving mode, set the navigation destination to a far away place at will, then let the car start and leave on its own, while he walked to another location. Walk in one direction.

The reason for doing this is because he is worried that since the people from the Anonymous Consortium will try to monitor the communication between him and Yagami Valley, then they will most likely install a tracker or the like on his car, so if he keeps driving If you were driving your car, they might catch up to you soon.

In addition, he estimated that the apartment he lived in was not safe now. Maybe those terrible enemies were setting up traps in his home waiting for him to fall into the trap. Therefore, he did not dare to go home and could only go to his other"secret residence" to stay temporarily. He planned to settle down in the"secret residence" first, find out the secret of Yagami Valley, and then go to the police station to report the crime and seek help from the police.
