Chapter 1 Doorbell

*Ding* The elevator door opened.

Zhao Yingjun stepped in with her high heels, putting down the supermarket bags in her hand, "Sorry, sorry, the company was busy today and I got home late. Are you two starving?"

With her back turned, she placed her handbag on the entryway cabinet, took off her coat and hung it on the hanger, "I'll prepare something for you to eat right away."

Before, when there were no children at home, she didn't feel anything about coming home late. Anyway, VV always ate a lot, so it didn't matter if she ate dog food a little later.

But now... even before quitting time, she started to think about what to make for Qiaoqiao for dinner.

If she got busy or came home late any day, she felt very guilty. "Qiaoqiao, what do you want to eat today?"

Zhao Yingjun turned her head, but her voice stopped abruptly when she saw the shocking scene.

There.

The Pomeranian VV's dog bowl was already full of dog food, and the water bowl next to it was also filled with water.

Needless to say, the dog must have been fed by Yan Qiaoqiao today. VV was eating with a crunching sound, and looking at the way her stomach bulged, it was likely that this was already her second extra meal. If it was just this, it wouldn't be enough to shock Zhao Yingjun.

On the dining table in the living room, there was a plate that had been eaten clean. Judging from the traces on it, it should have been rice and instant curry.

She sniffed.

Only then did she smell a pleasant curry scent filling the house, as if it was wafting from the kitchen. Looking over there, the kitchen lights were indeed on, the rice cooker was flashing its warming light, and the curry pot simmering on the gas stove was steaming hot. Zhao Yingjun's eyes widened as she looked at Yan Qiaoqiao, who was petting the Pomeranian VV's head next to the shoe cabinet, "Did you make this?"

"Mm."

Yan Qiaoqiao nodded, scratching VV's neck, making her make a pleasant sound, "I watched you do it once the day before yesterday, and I learned it." Zhao Yingjun really couldn't believe this... Although instant curry was very easy to make, there was ready-made concentrated soup base in the refrigerator. Just add some water, casually cut up any vegetables and throw them in, and simmer it.

Anyone could learn it after watching it once!

But!

This was Yan Qiaoqiao, who had memory loss and whose intelligence and cognition had not yet recovered!

Had her learning ability become so strong now?

Zhao Yingjun changed into flat slippers and came to the kitchen, looking at the rich soup in the curry pot, floating with potatoes, onions, beef, carrots, etc. It smelled really good, and the simmering was also just right. Looking at the cutting board next to it, there were still vegetable pieces that hadn't been cleaned up. These were traces of Yan Qiaoqiao's use. She had not only learned how to use a kitchen knife, but also cut the carrot cubes and potato cubes so square, each one like they were in military training.

Was this talent? An innate cooking holy body?

She took a step out and looked at Yan Qiaoqiao, who was petting the dog in the living room, "How dare you use a kitchen knife yourself? What if you cut your hand? Even normal fourteen-year-olds rarely touch kitchen knives... How did you cut the potatoes and carrots so well?"

"I don't know."

Yan Qiaoqiao shook her head, "I watched you cut them like that that day, so I learned to cut them."

Zhao Yingjun was a little puzzled, "Can your slender arms hold the kitchen knife steady?"

"It's okay."

Yan Qiaoqiao tilted her head, looking at her right hand opening and clenching, "It's quite handy."

Zhao Yingjun smiled helplessly after hearing this. She walked back to the kitchen and pressed the button on the rice cooker next to her.

There was still enough rice for two bowls left inside for herself, and it was steaming hot.

Looking at the hot curry in the curry pot again, it was needless to say that Yan Qiaoqiao had deliberately left it for her. For a moment.

Zhao Yingjun was filled with mixed feelings. For so many years, from studying abroad in her teens to starting a business in Donghai now, she had never come home to a hot meal.

No one cooked for her. If she wanted to eat, she could only make it herself. If she didn't want to, she would order takeout or eat out. The kitchen at home was rarely used, and the refrigerator only had emergency food.

It was only recently, after taking Yan Qiaoqiao home, that Zhao Yingjun felt that she couldn't always let the child eat unhealthy takeout, so Zhao Yingjun learned to cook.

But before she had even learned a few dishes, Yan Qiaoqiao directly learned it completely after watching it once! Her mind was too smart, wasn't it?

However.

To be fair... Zhao Yingjun turned around, leaning against the door, watching VV, who was wolfing down food, and Yan Qiaoqiao, who was quietly next to her.

Yan Qiaoqiao had improved a lot during this time.

It could even be described as rapid.

Before she returned to the capital, Yan Qiaoqiao gave people a dull feeling, speaking slowly, one word at a time. But after three days away and returning to Donghai, Yan Qiaoqiao instantly became much more mature, much quieter, and spoke much more fluently.

If the previous Yan Qiaoqiao was like a mentally retarded child with some intellectual problems, then the current Yan Qiaoqiao was already a clever and graceful young girl.

Although her appearance, physique, and age had not changed, her mind was clearly more mature.

She had grown up.

She was sensible.

Zhao Yingjun felt gratified, but at the same time, she also felt a sense of loss, a sense of anxiety. It was a very strange feeling.

Parents always seemed to hope that their children would grow up quickly, become sensible quickly, and be able to stand on their own. But.

Growing up and being sensible meant leaving, meaning no longer needing parents, just like the current Yan Qiaoqiao.

Only ten days ago, she was still a bear child who ate with her hands, ran around barefoot on the sofa, pointed at people with chopsticks without manners, lacking education and quality.

Looking at her now.

Obedient and sensible, independent and self-reliant, she would take the initiative to do housework and cook for the adults who came home from work, sigh.

Zhao Yingjun couldn't help but sigh inwardly. She even missed the uneducated Qiaoqiao from before. Children, shouldn't they be like that?

Now that Qiaoqiao had become so sensible, it made her feel a little distressed. She now truly understood what Brother Wang said: "The time when it's really interesting to raise a child is only the first few years. Later, when they grow up and have their own ideas, they will slowly leave you, sometimes not saying a word to you for a week."

At the time, she thought everything Brother Wang said was an exaggeration.

Now it seemed that every word was true. As expected, it was impossible to empathize with emotions about children without truly raising one. But the problem was that Yan Qiaoqiao was growing up too fast!

Zhao Yingjun hadn't had time to adapt yet, and in the blink of an eye, the child had grown up.

She walked over.

Squatting next to Qiaoqiao, looking at the Pomeranian VV who was still eating heartily, "Qiaoqiao, thank you for cooking for me. But you don't need to in the future. If you're hungry, you can eat some snacks. Later, your sister will take you to the supermarket to buy more. Eat them when you're hungry to fill your stomach."

"It's too early for you to do things like cooking. You don't need to take on such early obligations, and... I'm not at ease with you using fire and knives."

"You've already helped me a lot by feeding VV for me. You have indeed grown very quickly during this time, becoming sensible and smarter. It seems like I can't keep up with your speed."

"Actually, it's okay to be a little naughty sometimes. We're all family, so don't be so restrained and polite. And... if there's anything I don't do well or do wrong, you can also tell me."

Yan Qiaoqiao raised her head.

Looking at Zhao Yingjun, "Got it."

Zhao Yingjun smiled slightly, touching her head, "I bought some fruit. Let me peel an apple for you. You're in a period of growth right now, and it's important to supplement vitamins."

She stood up.

Taking a red apple from the plastic bag from the supermarket at the door, she washed it clean, then took the peeler, sat on the sofa, hooked the trash can over with her foot, and started peeling, "I've really been too busy with work lately to take you out to play. Wait for me to finish this period."

The Pomeranian VV finished another bowl of dog food, and almost threw up all of its previous achievements. Yan Qiaoqiao picked it up, rubbed its belly, and turned to look at Zhao Yingjun, "If you're busy, you can send me to Brother Lin Xian's place and have him take me to play." "How can I do that?"

Zhao Yingjun said while peeling the apple, "Lin Xian is also very busy. How can he have so much time to play with you?"

"No." Yan Qiaoqiao and VV shook their heads together, "He's very free."

Zhao Yingjun chuckled, looking at the one person and one dog, "What does Lin Xian usually do? When he doesn't take you out to play, what is he busy with?"

Yan Qiaoqiao thought about the scene she saw in the laboratory that day, Lin Xian and Brother Liu Feng hugging each other, extracting keywords, "Dating."

*Thump.*

The apple in Zhao Yingjun's hand slipped and fell directly into the trash can.

Red Fuji out.

"Hehe."

Children speak without thinking. Zhao Yingjun shook her head and smiled, not taking it seriously, "You learned this word from TV, right? What do you know about dating? You're just talking nonsense..." Yan Qiaoqiao recalled Brother Liu Feng's explanation again, "It means being madly in love, holding hands, hugging waists, looking at each other face to face, very close, with affectionate eyes."

Zhao Yingjun narrowed her eyes, "You saw it?"

Yan Qiaoqiao nodded, "I saw it clearly. I was in the room with VV."

She pointed to the Pomeranian in her arms.

The Pomeranian, however, was blushing with a silly look on its face, as if it was constipated, but in the tense situation, the hostess had no time to care about it, "In the room?"

Zhao Yingjun couldn't sit still and stood up from the sofa, "What kind of room? Lin Xian even brought you two to this kind of thing?"

Yan Qiaoqiao began to recall the appearance of the laboratory, trying to describe it with her poor vocabulary, "A very big, dark room with a refrigerator, an alarm clock, and many strange props."

Zhao Yingjun took a deep breath.

A refrigerator and an alarm clock meant it was in someone's home or a hotel suite. Otherwise, who would carry a refrigerator around?

Strange props... This didn't seem to be able to be described further. She crossed her arms and looked at Yan Qiaoqiao, "Lin Xian was dating in the room? Holding hands, hugging waists, with affectionate eyes?"

"That's right."

"How long were they there?" Zhao Yingjun gripped the fruit knife in her hand.

"Quite a while. They changed a lot of positions."

"Huh?"

Zhao Yingjun couldn't hold back, "He really let you watch this?"

"Yes."

Yan Qiaoqiao pointed again at the Pomeranian VV, whose face was red from holding back and struggling frantically, "We wanted to play with them, but Brother Liu Feng said no, saying it was too early for me."

"Brother!?"

Zhao Yingjun raised her voice, "It was a man?"

Wait a minute.

She seemed to have heard Lin Xian mention the name Liu Feng a long time ago.

It should have been not long after Rhein Company was established. Lin Xian wanted to set up a joint laboratory inside Donghai University. At that time, there were some problems with the communication and negotiation at Donghai University, and it was still she and Chu Shanhe who figured out a way to help Lin Xian solve them.

Lin Xian had mentioned this name at the time, saying that there was a scientist invited from out of town named Liu Feng. Zhao Yingjun had some impression.

So she probably understood that although Yan Qiaoqiao's words couldn't be said to be nonsense, they were probably completely unrelated to the truth.

She never doubted Lin Xian's character. Lin Xian would never bring a child to do such a shameful thing. In addition, the strange props described in Yan Qiaoqiao's mouth were probably the scene in the laboratory. There was no running away from it, "Is it the laboratory inside Donghai University?" Zhao Yingjun asked directly.

"I don't know."

Yan Qiaoqiao shook her head, "What is a laboratory?"

In the end, after a comparison, Zhao Yingjun confirmed her guess. And at this time.

VV, who was being choked by Yan Qiaoqiao, finally breathed smoothly and regained her dog life. "Tch."

Zhao Yingjun snorted softly.

She took another apple, washed it clean, and sat on the sofa peeling it, "You really scared me, Qiaoqiao... Speaking isn't about piecing together keywords. You have to explain it clearly. Subjects and predicates must be complete."

"Who, where, with whom, what they did, all of these things must be expressed clearly one by one. Otherwise, the understanding will be completely different or even the opposite. Did you learn it?"

"Learned it." Yan Qiaoqiao nodded, and said according to the requirements, "Brother Lin Xian, in the laboratory, with Brother Liu Feng, holding hands and hugging each other while dating."

"Okay, okay..." Zhao Yingjun suddenly felt that the mentally retarded Yan Qiaoqiao was back again. It seemed that the road to learning was long and漫漫.

Anything that was quickly made often had defects. It was not advisable to force growth. It was better to let Yan Qiaoqiao go out and communicate with people more to practice normal people's way of speaking.

Then common sense education also had to be supplemented.

Now Yan Qiaoqiao's source of knowledge was 70% from the TV and 30% from hearsay... Maybe she usually heard a word and learned it in the blink of an eye.

No.

This kind of education method was bound to cause problems sooner or later. "Qiaoqiao, your understanding of dating is wrong in the first place. How could Lin Xian and Liu Feng be dating? Although I haven't met Liu Feng, I can go to the Donghai University laboratory to take a look later. But I definitely believe that Lin Xian is not that kind of person."

"Dating, generally speaking, must be a man and a woman. And do you know what real dating is like?"

Yan Qiaoqiao shook her head, looking at Zhao Yingjun with curious and eager eyes, "What is it like?"

Zhao Yingjun chuckled, straightening her back, "Real dating... is..." The smile on her face disappeared, and the action of peeling the apple also stopped, "It's that kind of... When dating... it's, it's..." Her mind was turning very fast, but she couldn't retrieve any adjectives, descriptive words, scenes, experiences, feelings, etc. It was completely a knowledge blind spot!

Even though she had never eaten pork, she had seen pigs run. But asking someone who had never been in love to describe what dating was like, she really couldn't find a suitable adjective. She looked at the calendar next to her, which showed that today was May 17th, and in a few days it would be 520 and 521.

These two days were two Valentine's Days that the Dragon Country netizens had created out of thin air, derived from the homonym of "I love you." Mx Company had been busy during this time, and a lot of work was prepared for the promotions, gift boxes, and publicity for these two days. "Cough, cough."

She coughed lightly and continued to peel the apple, "Hearing is not as good as seeing. In two days, it will be 520 and 521, the so-called New Era Valentine's Day. There will definitely be couples dating everywhere on Valentine's Day. When the time comes, I will take you out to play. You can see with your own eyes what dating is like."

Yan Qiaoqiao nodded.

Remembering the knowledge point that hearing is not as good as seeing, she looked at Zhao Yingjun, "Have you ever been in love?"

*Slip* The apple that Zhao Yingjun was about to finish peeling slipped and rolled on the ground.

The Pomeranian VV was quick to spot it.

Its eyes lit up.

It jumped out of Yan Qiaoqiao's arms and jumped towards the apple on the ground. Anything that fell on the ground was its!

Zhao Yingjun looked at her empty left hand again, "..." She was very speechless, looking at Yan Qiaoqiao, "Do you still want to eat an apple?"

"Yes." Yan Qiaoqiao was concise.

"Then please be quiet before I finish peeling it!"

Finally.

Yan Qiaoqiao ate the apple, munching and crunching, and looked at Zhao Yingjun, "So, May 20th, Valentine's Day, is your holiday?"

Zhao Yingjun wiped the fruit knife clean and put it in the fruit bowl, looking at Yan Qiaoqiao impatiently, "Qiaoqiao, why are you so annoying today?"

She didn't expect that what Brother Wang said about teenagers being in an annoying period would come so quickly, "Just take care of your own holiday. Why do you care about other people's holidays?"

"My own holiday?"

Yan Qiaoqiao took a bite of the apple and tilted her head, "What holiday do I have?"

"Children's Day." Zhao Yingjun leaned back and rested on the back of the sofa, "June 1st, International Children's Day, that's the holiday for all children on Earth. Although commonly speaking, only those under 14 are considered children, legally speaking, those under 18 are called children."

"But on the Internet... Children's Day is now almost becoming Valentine's Day. But don't worry about what others are doing. At your age, you can definitely celebrate Children's Day in a dignified manner."

She smiled and looked at Yan Qiaoqiao, "That's right. Since Children's Day is coming soon, it's your holiday. I have to prepare a gift for you. What gift do you want for Children's Day?"

"Gift?" Yan Qiaoqiao's thoughts wandered, "Carnations?"

"Yes, something similar to carnations." Zhao Yingjun taught patiently, "But carnations are gifts for mothers. You're a child, so you can receive Children's Day gifts. You can think about what you want, and your sister will give it to you."

"That's right. If there's nothing you want, any wishes or things you want to do are fine. On June 1st, Children's Day, I'll take a leave of absence from work and spend the whole day playing with you. I'll fulfill any wishes you have."

"A so-called wish... is something you want to accomplish, something you look forward to the most, something you want to have." After listening to Zhao Yingjun's detailed explanation, Yan Qiaoqiao understood.

"I do have a wish."

She nodded, "I've had it for a long time. I even asked my grandparents, but they all said it couldn't be realized."

Zhao Yingjun crossed her legs, "What wish? Tell me. If they can't realize it for you, I'll realize it for you."

Yan Qiaoqiao's eyes were clear.

And full of expectation, "I want to go to Disneyland with my mom and dad." For a moment, the house became quiet. VV, who was holding the apple and munching, also felt that the atmosphere was not right, and didn't dare to make a sound, mechanically and quietly turning its head.

But it found that Zhao Yingjun and Yan Qiaoqiao were looking at each other, and neither of them was speaking.

Quiet.

The sound of their breathing could be heard.

The reason why VV's couldn't be heard.

Was because it didn't dare to breathe.

Finally.

Zhao Yingjun took a long breath, put down her crossed legs, leaned forward, bent down to pick up the apple peel on the ground, and threw it into the trash can, "Do you know where your mom and dad are?"

"I don't know."

Yan Qiaoqiao shook her head.

"If you don't know where they are, how can you go to Disneyland together?"

Zhao Yingjun said softly, "If you want to go to Disneyland, I can take you."

"But, I want to go with my mom and dad."

"Why?"

"Because... other children all go with their mom and dad."

Yan Qiaoqiao had finished eating the apple in her hand.

She raised her head, looking at Zhao Yingjun with a matter-of-fact expression, "Isn't Disneyland a place to go with mom and dad?"

No.

Zhao Yingjun certainly knew that it wasn't, but looking at Yan Qiaoqiao's clear eyes that took it for granted and "it should be like this."

She couldn't say the denial, it was still that sentence.

The world in Yan Qiaoqiao's eyes was only that big, 70% from the TV and 30% from other people's hearsay.

In the community where Zhao Yingjun's parents' villa was located, there were many "friends of all ages" little kids.

The word Disneyland must have been heard from those children. There was no need to think about it.

Kids who could live in that kind of high-end community, who hadn't been to Disneyland?

Every one of them must have been taken to Disneyland by their parents, and even more than once, therefore.

Yan Qiaoqiao's statistics around her concluded that all children had been taken to Disneyland by their moms and dads, so.

Naturally.

She also wanted to go, wanted to go with her mom and dad.

The world of children was that simple. With a little reasoning, she could understand the cause and effect.

Actually... Don't look at Yan Qiaoqiao always being very strong.

But her soft heart still missed her mom and dad very much. Back then in the pavilion in the park, that sentence, "Every day, I miss Mom."

Thinking about it even now, made Zhao Yingjun's nose feel a little sore.

"Okay."

Zhao Yingjun agreed and stood up, walked over, and ruffled Yan Qiaoqiao's hair, "I'll think of a way."

At the same time, in the Fifth Dream, Queenstown, outside a small warehouse.

Lin Xian and were preparing to set off for Rhein Village to find Zheng Xiangyue.

Looking back at Grandpa Wei Shengjin, "Teacher Wei, are you going with us? Or are you resting here... The place we're going to is a bit far, and it will take nearly two hours to get there quickly."

Now.

Grandpa Wei Shengjin had already recovered from his emotions, with a kind of contented fatigue, a kind of exhausted satisfaction.

He shook his head with a smile, "I won't bother with you anymore. This old bone can't run anymore today. Thanks to you, Lin Xian, I opened my safe so quickly, all thanks to you. Thank you very much."

"The Earth-Mars Universe Bus only runs once every two years, which means I have to continue to stay on Earth for one year and nine months before I can take the Universe Bus back to Mars. So, I want to use this time to do something meaningful and valuable for Mother Earth."

He turned around, looking at Angelica, Father Ri You's, behind him, "I've already told the Queen that for the next one year and nine months, I'll stay in Queenstown and use my professional knowledge to teach the people here how to make simple chemical batteries, and then make small appliances such as light bulbs, striving to get electricity into every household and the surrounding villages."

Simple chemical batteries?

Lin Xian was a little puzzled, "Can it be done? With the current industrial level and materials science level on Earth... Can it really be done?"

Grandpa Wei Shengjin showed a professional smile, "Lin Xian, going from 0 to 1 and going from 100 to 1 are completely different levels of difficulty. It took humans many years from the invention of electricity to the use of light bulbs."

"But Mars' technological theories are so solid and developed. Now we're not standing on the shoulders of giants to look out, but jumping off the shoulders of giants, so of course it's much easier. Moreover, I myself studied battery energy on Mars, so it's very easy to do this kind of thing."

Speaking of this.

Lin Xian remembered that he did know that Wei Shengjin was a university teacher on Mars, but he never asked what subject he taught.

Now it didn't seem like a liberal arts subject. It seemed like a very professional science subject.

"Teacher Wei."

Lin Xian was full of anticipation, "What major did you teach at the university?"

"Miniature Nuclear Battery Principles and Applications."

Lin Xian's eyes widened. You can't judge a book by its cover!

"You're too amazing, Teacher Wei. You actually teach such advanced knowledge."

"Hey, what's so advanced about it."

Wei Shengjin waved his hand dismissively, "These are all basic things. Humans have already mastered this technology more than a hundred years ago. Although the energy conversion of this battery is vastly different from controllable nuclear fusion, it excels in being able to be miniaturized!"

"On Mars, mobile phones, cars, small household appliances, electric cars, aircraft, robots, etc., etc., miniature nuclear batteries are widely used in various fields. The advantage of this battery is that it is safe, durable, stores energy for hundreds of years without damage, and its energy density far exceeds conventional batteries. Basically, a mobile phone can be used until it's scrapped, and it won't use up 5% of its power."

"And the miniature nuclear battery in the mobile phone is no bigger than a fingernail."

Lin Xian was very interested in this black technology.

The first time he entered the Fifth Dream, he talked with Grandpa Wei Shengjin about the level of technological development on Mars. The final conclusion was that it was similar to the New Donghai City in the Second Dream. Lin Xian was very clear about that.

The New Donghai City in the Second Dream widely used this miniature nuclear battery, which could be said to be one step away from controllable nuclear fusion.

But often this one step away could take hundreds of years to reach. He had indeed copied the cold fusion technology back to reality and handed it over to the Dragon Academy of Sciences. But in the Fifth Dream, neither the Earth 2400 years ago nor the Mars 2624 had been able to conquer this technology. Lin Xian didn't know the reason, but probably there were some factors of human intervention, "Is it difficult?"

Lin Xian asked curiously, "Is it easy to learn? Is it easy to manufacture?"

"Not difficult at all!"

Wei Shengjin said very easily, "Humans detonated the atomic bomb in 1945 and mastered nuclear energy. In the decades that followed, they also manufactured nuclear power plants, nuclear reactors and other application equipment."

"Logically speaking, it shouldn't take too long to be able to manufacture miniature nuclear batteries. At least, there were no bottlenecks in terms of raw materials and technology. It's just that the path of theoretical development deviated, leading humans to study nuclear energy on a wrong path."

"Can you understand what I'm saying? The choice of the direction of scientific development is often like this. If the direction is chosen correctly, you can avoid tens or hundreds of years of detours, but if the direction is chosen wrongly, you may not be able to get back on track in the end."

"I personally estimate that if humans had not been interfered with and deviated from the path of research on nuclear energy, technologies such as miniature nuclear batteries should have been broken through and put into practical use around 2030."

"But in fact, it was delayed until humans survived on Mars before achieving a belated breakthrough. As for whether it's difficult or not... What's so difficult about it? An ordinary teacher like me can teach this course for decades in an ordinary university. As long as students want to learn, they can learn it!"

*Clap.*

Lin Xian took a step forward and grabbed Grandpa Wei Shengjin's hands, "Teacher Wei, you're really a treasure!

You're Ultraman Tiga! You're a ray of light! A light illuminating the Earth!"

"Oh, no, no."

Grandpa Wei Shengjin blushed a little from being praised, "You're exaggerating."

"This is really just an ordinary, mature, and stable applied theoretical technology. It may just sound advanced on Earth. On Mars, this technology is not worth mentioning at all. You can buy miniature nuclear batteries in any roadside shop."

"Do you want to learn it? If you want to learn it, I'll teach you!"

He was just waiting for this sentence!

This was really an unexpected gain from the Fifth Dream... Although he hadn't been in the Fifth Dream for long and the progress was fast, the gains were very great. Not only had he copied back the principle of the time machine, but now the theoretical technology of miniature nuclear batteries was also queuing up to be transported. Lin Xian had previously been clueless about how to make Rhein Company make a lot of money and give himself enough financial reserves, but now didn't he have a clue?

According to Grandpa Wei Shengjin, miniature nuclear batteries were completely capable of being manufactured in 2024. It was just that human research on the application of nuclear physics had deviated from the right path, so he was sorry.

He.

Planned to do a good deed and let Rhein Company pull this deviated path back to the top. He could even apply for a patent, a win-win situation!

Lin Xian couldn't help but sigh, "If miniature nuclear batteries could appear on Earth in 2023, the future world would definitely be greatly changed. Would humans still go to Mars to develop?"

"Mars will definitely still be going."

Grandpa Wei Shengjin explained, "After all, the super disaster in 2400 is an inevitable natural phenomenon. Even if there are more nuclear batteries, it won't help. The Earth's ecological environment is no longer suitable for living. Humans can only migrate to Mars."

"But to be fair, if humans can really master miniature nuclear battery technology in 2030, then the Earth today definitely wouldn't be like this."

He used his foot to pick up the soil on the ground, kicked out a hole, and pointed at the hole to explain, "If humans start manufacturing miniature nuclear batteries in 2030, then after hundreds of years of accumulation, there will definitely be a very large number of miniature nuclear batteries in the world. After the super disaster in 2400, the vast majority of miniature nuclear batteries that have not yet used up their energy will be buried under the earth."

"Then what will happen, Lin Xian, you should be able to understand, right? The surviving humans on Earth will dig out a large number of usable miniature nuclear batteries from under the earth, because the outer shell of this thing is made of hafnium alloy. It's really durable, sturdy, safe, stores energy for hundreds of years without loss, and can be used directly when dug out."

"So, why would Earth humans need to develop from the primitive era? They can directly step into the era of endless electricity by using the vast underground resources of miniature nuclear batteries. Assuming this continues, it's really hard to say what the Earth would become."

Grandpa Wei Shengjin imagined the hypothesis, rubbed his hands, and smiled, "It's really imaginative... With the intelligence and unyielding spirit of Earth humans, directly giving them an inexhaustible supply of miniature nuclear batteries as a starting resource, what step would they be able to develop to with 200 years to rebuild civilization?"

"That's right."

Lin Xian also looked around Queenstown, where the households were sleeping with their lights off, and imagined a post-disaster Earth that started with miniature nuclear batteries, "I'm also looking forward to it."
