Chapter 46 Is this something I should know?



This is the fifth time I’ve witnessed a dangerous smile.

Chu Hai prayed that Kate could find out about her godfather's disappearance.

If she fails to find out the truth and refuses to return the money, Chu Hai believes that Brother Qi will not let her go.

We don't even know how we died.

"Xiao Hai, if Lao Zeng really encounters an accident, I will kill many people!"

In the hotel, Zeng Qi was lying on the bed and said abruptly.

Looking at him again, he was staring at the smoke alarm on the roof, as if he was possessed.

Chu Hai comforted him, "Godfather is a lucky man, I believe nothing will happen to him."

"Xiao Hai, if Lao Zeng gets bullied, how about I make a nuclear bomb and avenge him?"

"What?" Chu Hai was so surprised that he blurted out in a foreign language.

Nuclear bomb? He suspected he had misheard.

Is it the kind that blooms in the Cherry Blossom Country? Chu Hai thought secretly.

Pointing to the smoke alarm above his head, Zeng Qi said slowly: "This smoke alarm contains 300 nanograms of the isotope americium 241."

"Brother Qi, don't scare me!"

Chu Hai was frightened and quickly opened Baidu to search.

Damn, he discovered that there really was an isotope of americium 241 in the smoke alarm.

Baidu explains that this element can emit alpha particles, which are high-energy hydrogen nuclei containing two protons and two neutrons.

Alpha particles can be ejected from the nucleus of an americium atom at speeds of kilometers per second, about 5% of the speed of light.

"You don't need to check. Only 500 roentgens of radiation will be fatal. One hundred smoke alarms have a Y-ray intensity of about 0.4 milliroentgens." Zeng Qi rolled his eyes.

Hearing this, Chu Hai rubbed his chest and tried to calm himself down.

1 roentgen is equal to 1000 milliroentgens, which means that a huge number of smoke alarms would be needed to create a danger.

Buying so many smoke alarms will easily attract police attention.

"Brother Qi, have some peanuts. You look drunk."

Chu Hai would never believe that Brother Qi could make a nuclear bomb. You know, radioactive raw materials are under key state control, even stricter than banned drug raw materials.

"Xiao Hai, the nuclear bomb is indeed a bit difficult, but the dirty bomb is quite simple."

Dirty bomb? Chu Hai took out his phone again. He didn’t know until he checked it, and he was shocked again.

A dirty bomb, also known as a radioactive bomb, is a weapon that spreads radioactive material over a large area.

The huge explosive force of a dirty bomb can release radioactive materials into the air, causing catastrophic ecological damage.

Unlike traditional nuclear weapons, dirty bombs do not produce a nuclear explosion.

However, the spread of radioactive particles it causes can cause terrible harm to the human body.

If a dirty bomb is used in a densely populated urban area, anyone exposed will die within a short period of time.

Some people may suffer from chronic poisoning or cancer.

Cities, neighborhoods, and buildings attacked would be contaminated with radioactive material.

In the next few decades or even thousands of years, it will degenerate into a radioactive area unsuitable for human habitation.

Not only did the incidence of cancer in the organisms involved increase dramatically, but anything that had been contaminated could no longer be used.

Compared with small nuclear weapons, dirty bombs actually pose a greater real threat.

Chu Hai recently read the news. Some experts said that the United States did not dare to attack the Persian Empire because the other side had a dirty bomb.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Brother Qi, you are too naive. You can't get the materials for a dirty bomb."

After turning off Baidu, Chu Hai was very confident in his idea.

"Xiao Hai, if eating more fish can improve your brain and make you smarter, then you should at least eat a pair of whales."

Huh? Chu Hai’s face darkened, feeling like he was being dissed again.

So he was dissatisfied and said, "Then tell me, how do you obtain radioactive elements?"

"Xiao Hai, every chemist has the dream of collecting all isotopes.

I had dreamed of building a breeder reactor a long time ago, but Mr. Zeng kept a close eye on me."

Chu Hai was a little confused when he heard this and interrupted, "Speaking in plain language, what is a breeder reactor?"

Zeng Qi rolled his eyes at him and gave an example: "It's like you're driving a long distance. When you set out, you only have half a tank of gas. When you get home, your tank is not empty but full.

A breeder reactor is like this car, not only generating electricity but also creating new fuel.”

"This is a good thing, why doesn't godfather agree?"

"Both conventional and breeder reactors rely on naturally occurring radioactive elements, usually uranium-235 or plutonium-239, as fuel for sustained fission reactors."

Uranium-235? Oh my gosh, isn't this the isotope used in atomic bombs?

Chu Hai remembered clearly that the little boy who bloomed in the cherry blossom country used uranium 235.

"I understand. Interest is the best teacher, but you don't have the materials needed to build a nuclear reactor, so your godfather stopped you." Chu Hai felt that he had guessed the reason.

"No, Lao Zeng said I'm too young. The most important thing is to cultivate my character. He will work with me after college."

"Damn! Being your brother, I feel like I have some 'radiant energy'."

"You shouldn't be in the 'spoke' without knowing the 'spoke'."

Hearing this, the two brothers laughed at the same time.

Geniuses are lonely and isolated, but fortunately, he has a down-to-earth brother by his side who can always bring him back to normal. This is Zeng Qi's sincere thought.

"I could really build a dirty bomb."

After a moment of silence, Zeng Qi's words were like a bombshell.

This time, before Chu Hai could diss him, Zeng Qi continued, "I have a bad feeling something must have happened to Old Zeng. He's the best father I've ever known. I should do something for him."
