On the fifth day of singularity calculations, Clemens's room.

Liz, wearing glasses, put a piece of paper full of data on Clemens’s desk, and said: “I have already calculated the fluctuation function of the vector line of the crust. I used the ST model for verification. The directional simulation is completed, and it is confirmed that there is no problem."

　　 The stubble-faced Clemens nodded, put the paper on top of the thick pile of documents beside him, and returned his attention to the graphics on the laptop.

　　 Liz stretched out, picked up an empty cup and walked to the veranda of the room. She came to the coffee machine and wanted to make a cup, but found that the words "raw material shortage" appeared on the machine.

　　 Liz knocked on the door, and a soldier opened the door from the outside.

　　 Liz pointed to the coffee machine, and said to the soldier, "I ran out of coffee beans."

　　 The soldier nodded and closed the door again.

　　 Putting her ear on the door of the room, Liz, after confirming that the soldiers had gone away, crept over to Clemens and whispered, "We must find a way to get out of here."

　　 Clemens said with a wry smile: "It's as difficult to get out of here as it is to leave the earth."

　　 Liz said worriedly: "Have you ever thought that even if we help him figure out the singularity, will he let us go in the end?"

　　 Clemens thought for a while, and then gave the answer: "Standing in his position to think, it is more in his interest to leave us. But the premise is that we must be able to create enough value."

　　 Liz sighed: "Perhaps we should propose to send Alice back to the room and forbid her to go out again."

　　 Clemens whispered: "I suspect that the major will not agree. Alice is more like a hostage, perhaps as a bargaining chip in his hand, so that we can calculate the singularity as soon as possible."

　　 Lis: "When Alice came back a few days ago, she said she was taken to a school full of toys, and there are many children with her. Is this possible?"

Clemens: "This military base, and the research institute, many people are forbidden to leave here. Many of these people are old. They will definitely have children, and their children will definitely be in a similar situation. The boarding school is centrally managed. Perhaps Alice was sent there."

　　 Liz nodded helplessly after listening.

　　 At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

　　 Liz turned around and said, "Our coffee beans, finally."

　　 walked over and opened the door, but Liz saw a face that made her nervous.

　　 Major Cole smiled and looked at the two in the room, and asked, "How is the progress?"

　　 Clemens and Liz glanced at each other.

　　 Clemens said: "It's relatively smooth. According to this progress, there will be two more days..."

Major 　　 interrupted him: "I want to see the final coordinates before six o'clock tonight."

　　 Clemens stood up in shock: "Before six o'clock? Now only... nine hours are left! How can this be done?!"

　　 Major Cole put away his smile, and said blankly: "According to the observations of the potential field, the energy of the singularity is accelerating, and there is a high probability that it will completely explode tonight."

　　 Lis said: "But in such a short period of time, it is impossible for us to reduce the error to less than one kilometer!"

　　 Major Cole waved his hand: "I know that time is tight, so I don't stick to the previous request, just ask you to narrow the scope as much as possible."

　　 Clemens breathed a sigh of relief: "If that's the case, we will try to reduce the error, but I can't guarantee that the result will be ideal."

　　 Major Cole looked at Clemens and suddenly said: "Tonight’s singularity investigation, Professor Scott, you come with me."

　　 Clemens was taken aback: "I want to go too tonight?"

　　 Major Cole: "Don't you want to verify your results?"

　　 Liz pulled La Clemens and shook her head slightly.

　　 Clemens thought carefully, and replied: "I will go, but at the same time, please guarantee the personal safety of Liz and my daughter."

　　 Major Cole smiled slightly: "They are very safe to stay here."

　　 Closed the door, Liz pulled Clemens anxiously: "Why did you promise him?! The past was too dangerous!"

　　 Clemens rubbed his face vigorously: "I have no choice... promise to go together so that he won't let him question our calculations."

　　 Liz covered her face in pain: "God, if anything happens to you, how should I explain to Alice?"

　　 Clemens put Liz Lou into his arms: "I will be fine. As long as we can prove that the calculation is correct, we can win a place here, at least there will be no more life concerns."

　　 Liz gritted her teeth and said, "Come on, we only have less than nine hours, and there is still a lot of work to do."

Six p.m.

　　 When Clemens took the final calculation result in front of Major Cole, the latter looked a little ugly.

　　 "Alexis Park Resort Hotel, Carnival Casino Hotel, Green Valley Shopping Center, Wentwood Park, MCJ Monak Middle School..."

Looking at the huge red circle on the map, Major Cole asked: "This estimated area is located in the center of Las Vegas, with an area of ​​almost 12 square kilometers, which is quite different from the location of the singularity predicted by the headquarters. 230 kilometers...Professor Scott, are you sure?"

　　 Clemens nodded: "I can be sure that the singularity is in this area. But time is in a hurry, I can only reduce the error range to this area."

Major Cole said in a deep voice: "If the singularity really broke out in the city center, as you said, it would definitely become a huge trouble... Think about it, there are thousands of citizens who will see all this with their own eyes... "

　　 Clemens suggested: "Perhaps the streets can be blocked in advance to reduce unnecessary trouble."

　　 Major Cole: "Impossible, the highest authority is required to block the city, and doing so will expose our whereabouts."

　　 Clemens heard the voice of the major: "Tonight, are we acting alone?"

　　 Major Cole: "Professor Scott, please remember that what we are going to perform tonight is a routine patrol."

Half an hour later, put on the lined body armor, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Clemens wearing walkie talkie equipment, sat in a Hummer H1, left the Grum Lake military base, and began to face Drive to the center of Las Vegas.

　　 Looking at the heavily armed soldiers in the car, Clemens rubbed his palms nervously.

Major Cole took a look at him and said, "Professor Scott, wait for you to follow me, don’t stay away... I don’t want to see you lost. After all, your daughter has an assistant. Waiting for you to go back."

　　 Clemens, who understood the meaning of the other party's words, did not speak with a gloomy face.

　　The motorcade was gradually approaching the downtown area of ​​Las Vegas along the highway. The brilliant lights and bustling neighborhoods were particularly dazzling against the background of the desolate desert.

　　 Major Cole looked at the car navigation map while using the walkie-talkie next to the helmet to order: "Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, enter the tactical point."

　　 The convoy was divided into four teams and drove in four directions respectively.

　　 Major Cole pointed to the map and said to Clemens: "According to the singularity range you provided, I divided the entire area into four divisions, and each operation team will be responsible for patrolling one division."

　　 "No matter where the singularity breaks out, my people can get to the scene as fast as possible."

　　 After finishing, he gestured to the soldier next to him. The latter pressed the button of the laptop, and a row of miniature drones ejected from the rear of the car and flew towards the sky above the city.

　　 Clemens looked at the drone flying further and further, and asked, "What should we do now?"

　　 Major Cole adjusted the back of the seat, closed his eyes and said, "Wait."
