Chapter 82 Accident
After listening to Zhou Cheng's account of how he discovered the nameplate, the conference room fell into silence for a moment.
Once might be a coincidence, but twice is hardly a coincidence.
The fact that this text was discovered simultaneously through two channels proves that it must have been intentional by the Moon Goddess or an organization closely connected with the Moon Goddess.
"Thunder..."
Combined with the existing situation, the meaning of this passage is very clear.
If you accept the fate of the end of civilization, then everything will continue.
You can still hide in the cradle and step into death peacefully under the influence of the infrastructure left over from the heyday.
This is my mercy to you.
But if you refuse to accept it and still insist on resisting... I will punish you.
It is not yet known what form this punishment will take, but everyone knows that it will be something that people are unwilling to accept, or even unable to accept.
But even so, the option of accepting the decline of civilization is still ruled out without any discussion.
Then, there is only one thing left for us to do.
"Be on full alert."
There was nothing else to do except to be on full alert and passively wait for the Moon Goddess's punishment to come.
Once this overall strategy was determined, more people joined the meeting.
The heads of almost every department, including the industrial department, agricultural department, energy department, security department, etc., responded to the call and began to discuss how to strengthen security, deal with accidents, and how to respond and deal with them after accidents occur.
These agendas had little to do with Zhou Cheng, so he left the meeting early and returned to the lake.
Under the sunshine, Zhou Cheng looked at the shimmering lake in silence.
The nameplate had been taken away by the security department and was undergoing the same inspection as the two previous notes, but Zhou Cheng did not expect to find any clues from it.
If it could be found, it would have been found from those two notes.
He was not thinking about this thing, but about something else.
When the first decision-maker took out the photo and showed the same information as on the nameplate he found, Zhou Cheng suddenly felt that he seemed to have overlooked something.
But he couldn't remember what exactly he had overlooked.
So at this moment, he faced the quiet lake, carefully sorting out his thoughts, sorting out every step of the development of the matter, and carefully looking for any places he might have missed.
Compared with the process of obtaining the notes twice before, this time the nameplate and photo also had a very similar process.
The Moon Goddess showed almost the same abilities in this.
Predict the future.
It or they accurately predicted its own actions and the actions of the first decision maker, predicted certain changes in nature, and accurately delivered this information to the target person.
At the same time, the scientific system of human civilization believes that predicting the future is not feasible, and this has been verified by a large number of experiments.
Randomness is one of the unshakable cornerstones of the human scientific system.
If the future could be predicted, then humanity's scientific system would collapse.
However, these two sharply contradictory realities are vividly presented to the human world.
Zhou Cheng thought hard, trying to find out what he had overlooked, and then to find the possibility that would allow the two sharply opposing realities to coexist.
Compared with the previous process of obtaining two notes, the only difference in this incident was that the target of Yue Shen's message delivery changed from herself to two people.
Not only did he get the information, but the first decision maker also got the information.
What do these different changes mean?
On the surface, this didn't seem to mean anything. Just like how I received the first note and thought it was a coincidence, only to receive the second note and then confirm that the message was intentionally delivered, now, I and the first decision-maker received the message at the same time, possibly for the same reason.
but……
With the previous case of the two notes, at this moment, if the Moon Goddess really wants to send some information to the human world, is it necessary to do something like "double insurance"?
Even if this information is only sent to myself, I will still take it seriously and influence the decision-making of the world government.
The same result would be achieved even if this information were sent only to the primary decision maker.
But if I send it to two people at the same time, then... isn't that troublesome?
Is it necessary to go to such lengths?
So, if this behavior is not redundant, but...
Zhou Cheng's pupils suddenly constricted.
He thought of another possibility.
Perhaps, this was not something the Moon Goddess intended, but some kind of accident?
Thinking of this, Zhou Cheng suddenly became enlightened and began to move forward quickly along this line of thought.
Under the sunshine, beside the small lake, Zhou Cheng paced slowly, walking back and forth with his head slightly lowered.
As the sun began to slowly set in the west, he suddenly stopped and raised his head. Then, without looking back, he quickly left the place and walked towards the building.
"I need to meet with the primary decision-maker. I have an important matter to report. At the same time, please immediately notify the remaining decision-makers, as well as the heads of important departments, members of the scientific advisory group, members of the policy advisory group, and so on. I require all those with a certain status within the civilization to attend the meeting. Everyone."
The confidential secretary of the first decision-maker also looked serious.
There is no doubt that only the first decision-maker is qualified to convene a general meeting of this level, and Zhou Cheng does not have this authority at all.
"I need to ask for instructions."
He took out his phone, whispered a few words, and hung up after a moment: "The first decision maker agreed. He is waiting for you in the conference room now. It will take about 20 minutes for the other participants to arrive."
Waves of radio signals were emitted, and within moments, numerous vehicles began to race across the empty, spacious streets of Dajing City. Helicopters also began to appear in the sky, rapidly converging towards the World Government Building.
Some senior officials who had not yet left the World Government Building saved themselves the trouble and went directly to the conference room without having to travel all the way.
Twenty minutes later, the last attendee arrived.
The first decision-maker gestured to Zhou Cheng, who turned on the microphone and looked at the participants in the conference room, who totaled about 150 people.
These 150 individuals are the absolute elite of human civilization. It could even be said that the future of civilization rests in their hands.
"I require all attendees to immediately report their detailed whereabouts over the past two days, as well as their whereabouts over the next two... no, three days."
