Chapter 149 The Lazarus Project
Emilia Brand ignored Louis and continued to cling to what he said before: "If you don't explain it clearly, I won't let you see other people."
Louis looked at the serious woman and knew that she was not joking. So he said the second paragraph about the ongoing plan of the SAFE, and this time he deformed Emilia Brand's face in front of him: "I know that Professor Brand has solved the algorithm. He already knows that the data he currently has cannot escape the super-large space station from the gravity of the earth, and I know how to obtain the part of the data he needs."
How did that algorithm use gravity anomalies to achieve the key to getting the space station to leave the earth? That algorithm could never be solved because it was lacking some data.
Professor Brand had discovered this a long time ago, but he did not tell anyone the truth. He just said that it would take time to complete the algorithm, which would still be full of hope for these people on Earth and work hard for tomorrow.
Even his daughter Emilia didn't know about this, but after arriving at another galaxy through a wormhole, she received a communication from Professor Brand before her death, and then she learned the truth.
So when she heard Louis's words, Emilia's first reaction was that she didn't believe it, but after calmly thinking about it, she thought of another question: What reason does this person have to do this?
Just as Emilia was in chaos, Louis suddenly reached out and introduced himself: "My name is Louis, I am a pilot. I think your Lazarus plan is missing a pilot?"
Emilia thought for a while and decided to ask her father in person. This pilot named Louis must stay here for the time being. They must figure out what the person is from?
"Come with me!" Emilia stretched out her hand and held Louis's hand that she did not take back: "Emilia Brand, Professor Brand is my father."
"I'm glad to see you." He held his hand lightly and then took it back. Louis did not hold it until he could not let go, which would not leave anyone with any good impression.
Seeing Louis as gentlemanly, Emilia smiled for the first time - I have to say that Emilia, who smiled, seemed to be able to get the whole world, and she laughed...
Following Emilia, Louis soon arrived at the conference room. On the way here, Emilia had asked the robot Tas to notify important personnel from the SAFE to go to the conference room, including her father, Professor Old Brand.
Maybe those people were not far from the conference room, or maybe Emilia took Louis to take a special detour, making Louis unable to figure out the structure here. When the two of them came to the spacious and bright conference room, all the important personnel were already sitting inside, waiting for the arrival of Louis and Emilia.
Louis scanned the circle and saw several important figures in the Lazarus project, including two scientists who went to another galaxy with Cooper in the original plot. After introduction, Louis learned that one of the two was called Romily, the black scientist who had been waiting alone on the spacecraft for more than 20 years.
Another white scientist named Doyle died under the terrifying waves on the first planet.
In addition, Professor Brand was sitting there looking at Louis. He had learned from Tass what Louis had said before. He was surprised when the biggest secret in his heart was revealed, but soon he began to feel happy.
Because Louis claimed that he was sent to help these people complete the Lazarus plan, does that mean they could avoid that bad ending?
Louis sat down, and the three scientists stared at Louis, but no one spoke first. In the end, Professor Old Brand asked the question: "Who are you?"
"I think you've investigated my identity information, so there's no need to waste time on such things."
A white-haired old man wearing glasses opened a document in front of him. He should be one of the management staff of the SAF and read it according to the document: "Louis Hunter, a former major pilot of the Navy, performed excellently during his service, and later turned to civilians to be responsible for publicity... After the Navy was disbanded, he went unknown... Major Hunter, we did check your information, but we want to know how you knew this place; and how did you know the Lazarus Plan?"
The interstellar earth had been disbanded due to its exhaustion of resources, and Louis realized that in this world, he left the army for this reason.
He did not take the initiative to introduce himself, just to see what his own information is like in his hands. It seems that he will use his "past" experiences just like before.
"I said it was 'they' who asked me to come."
The white-haired man wearing glasses was not very convinced, but the other scientists just looked at each other a few times. Professor Brand interrupted the man with glasses, "How did they tell you about this place and the Lazarus plan?"
"Oh, that's a very magical thing..." Louis directly used Cooper's experience in the original plot, creating abnormal phenomena through gravity, and 'they' sent a lot of information to Louis and let Louis know a lot of things.
For example, Louis said the existence of the Space Administration, the Lazarus Project and even some of the plans were implemented. In fact, Louis relied on his own movies to spoil the story, which made him feel very interesting.
"You two are scientists who are scheduled to join the Lazarus Project, aren't they?" Louis, who said a lot of things, had already convinced several scientists, including Professor Brand. When he heard Louis ask, Doyle and Romiley nodded happily.
"If I hadn't appeared, you would have died in this operation."
When Louis said this, Professor Brand was nervous. Both scientists who participated in the operation were sacrificed. Did the Lazarus plan fail?
But Louis did not give a clearer answer. He just spread his hands and said, "Now you believe that what I said is true, right?"
And he has more reasons to trust: "Don't forget that I am also a human being, living on this planet, and I came here to save myself."
Everyone in the conference room looked at each other, and this sentence was indeed very convincing. Anyone who knew that they would face a huge disaster soon would find ways to save themselves. Louis's actions were not incomprehensible.
Everyone looked at each other, as if they were using their eyes to determine whether their companions invited the person who suddenly appeared to join them.
For them, a helper is too important, especially a pilot.
The overall environment is harsh and the army is disbanded; the Space Administration can only act secretly and secretly. Ordinary people cannot accept large amounts of money spent on space exploration, especially now when most people are no longer full.
Pilots and other things have long become rare. Pilots like Louis with excellent service experience are the talents they need.
At this moment, Brand suddenly asked a question: "There is another question, who was the pilot who originally carried out the Lazarus Plan?"
Since Louis knew who the scientists who participated in the Lazarus Project were, he must also know that such an important membership as a pilot.
Louis gave a name directly: "Cooper."
"Cooper? The Cooper I know?" Cooper was once the best pilot of the SAFE. He left the SAFE because of an accident. Shortly after Cooper left, the SAFE also disbanded.
By the time the SAFE scientists gathered again and formulated various plans for the continuation of humanity, Cooper had become an ordinary farmer. He did not know where he lived and did not have enough resources to look for him everywhere, especially when he was not sure whether he was alive or dead now.
"It's that Cooper."
Professor Brand was a little confused. He originally thought that the Lazarus plan failed because the driver was not good enough, so 'they' asked Louis to come and help.
But Cooper is a very excellent pilot. More importantly, Cooper is one of the very few pilots on earth who have actually driven a spaceship. He only looks at his resume and is a pilot who is more suitable for the Lazarus Project than Louis.
So what is the real reason why 'they' sent Louis? Although Professor Brand couldn't figure it out, he still hoped that Louis would stay here and formally invite him to join the plan to save humanity.
"Would you like to stay here to help us?"
"Of course, that's what I'm here for."
Later, Professor Brand introduced Louis to the current plan progress and situation. When Louis learned that Dr. Mann and others were exploring another galaxy through a wormhole nine years ago, he knew that the plot was still some time before the plot officially began.
In the plot, Dr. Mann and others set off just ten years after they set off, the protagonist Cooper set off in a spacecraft, because it was the integer of ten years, which is very memorable.
Louis estimated that this year was time to learn and familiarize himself with the spacecraft, but he didn't know whether the SAFE had enough resources to practice for him.
At the end, Professor Brand left Louis alone in the conference room and asked everyone to go out. He wanted to talk to Louis alone about important things.
After everyone left the conference room and Emilia closed the door tightly, Professor Old Brand mentioned the algorithm: "Don't mention it to anyone about the matter that I have unlocked the algorithm..." As if he was worried that Louis did not understand his intention, he could only say a few more words: "People need hope and need a direction."
"I know, I won't mention this matter again... Besides, that plan is not unsuccessful, it's just that it lacks important data." To solve the algorithm, various data in the black hole is needed. As long as the data is obtained, humans on Earth can be saved.
"And I can help you get the data you need."
