Chapter 551 - 552 Interrogation (Part I)
In the dark interrogation room, three people sat opposite each other, and only a table lamp could be illuminated.
The two interrogators stared at the person sitting opposite them with a cold face, as if they were ready to turn out all the secrets of the interrogator in front of them from the inside out.
One of them took the lead in breaking the silence.
"Beelen, a native of the province, whose parents died unexpectedly when they were young. They were raised by their grandfather. They graduated from the National School in 1750. After graduation, they worked at the Astronomical Observatory 804, during which they published many observation data of new stars..."
"Because of his excellent performance, he was assigned to join the 'Cosmic Voice Project' during the 1788 public wheel and participated in the national mission of searching for alien civilizations..."
"1805 revolution, as the first discoverer, found that there was an alien civilization called Amoeba from our five-light-year Sutton cluster b, and successfully established contact with the other party..."
"The 1815 public wheel was dismissed for sending signals to the outside of the stellar system without permission. It was lost until the 1834 public wheel was arrested and imprisoned for being found suspected of joining the Equality Organization during the census."
After saying that, the interrogator coldly looked straight into the sitting Biren's eyes and asked.
"Is there anything you need to add?"
"No."
Byron shook his head, his face was as usual, and he was not overwhelmed by the interrogator's momentum at all.
"Can you tell us what you are hiding?" The interrogator asked.
Hearing this, Sharon sighed. This was not the first time. He was also very knowledgeable about the information he had obtained from the Amoeba civilization.
No matter how much he forced his words and deeds to confess, he couldn't say anything.
"You all know that I have nothing to hide."
"We want to know to what extent the technical level of the amoeba civilization has reached?" The interrogator continued to ask.
"I don't know about this. Amoeba did not disclose more information about civilization."
As he said just now, another colleague next to the interrogator who had been silent stood up with a heavy slap on the table and shouted ferociously.
"But you have to know something! You brought them in! You betrayed all the Carters on Sori!"
"Don't be excited. Sit down first." The interrogation officer.
The colleague looked at the interrogator, stared at Biren like a cannibal, sat down again, and warned Biren with a gritry of hatred.
"You'd better say everything you know, or I'll try my best to pry it out of your mouth. Believe me, you will regret it at that time. Why didn't you say it early?"
One sings a white face and the other sings a red face. It's a very simple interrogation skill. Byron doesn't know much about it, but he has heard about it occasionally. His heart is still calm. After all, he is not even afraid of death. What else will he be afraid of?
The interrogator saw that it had no effect and no longer tried to use this method, but looked for loopholes in Byron's words and asked the bottom.
"Since you don't know the technical level of Amoeba, why can you be sure that Amoeba has the ability to cross five light years and reach our side? You must have a basis, right? Can you tell us?"
"Yes, I have a basis. I can vaguely understand what level the Amoeba civilization is."
Byron admitted calmly that because there is nothing to hide, this information can also be obtained from other sources, but the government has not yet collected information in that regard.
"Go on!"
The interrogator's colleague hammered the table and continued to shout loudly.
"At this scientific seminar, someone raised the question, if there are many alien civilizations in this universe, how should these alien civilizations be divided?"
Byron threw such a question in the narration, and then threw out the answer to this question.
"Then based on this question, some people have proposed three levels of the division of cosmic civilization. The first level is the high development and utilization of the mother planet where it lives.
The second level is the development and utilization of the height of the mother star where you live, and the third level is the development and utilization of the height of the mother river system where you live.When Warren finished telling the story, the loud interrogator asked in a hurry.
"So what level does our civilization belong to? What level does the Amoeba civilization belong to?
Blon thought for a moment and answered his question, "The Carter civilization belongs to the 0.6 level. If it is the Amoeba civilization, it may be at the second level."
"Why are we 0.6?"
The interrogator's puzzled question is that the two of them do not have a deep understanding of science as well as academic members like Bia. In their opinion, today's Carter civilization has a high level of technology. After the research of nuclear weapons, their civilization has the power to destroy the world.
Although the Amoeba civilization seems to be stronger than the Carter civilization, in their opinion, even if the gap is very large, it is the gap that the Carters can catch up with.
"This is based on the overall energy output value of Carter civilization, and we get the result by introducing the calculation formula. We also hope that the result will be higher, but it doesn't work."
Byron explained the origin of this value to the two interrogators.
"We have developed nuclear weapons, and the nuclear power plant can produce a lot of electricity in a short time. What will be the result if we take these into account?"
The grumpy interrogator continued to ask disbelief, but Bilan's answer made him feel bad.
"It's 0.6. Academic members who hope that the value can be higher deliberately consider the technology that can be put into practical soon in the future, otherwise the value will be lower."
As soon as this sentence came out, the interrogation room fell into a short silence, and an inexplicable emotion emerged from the bottom of the two interrogators' hearts. It was hard to say, but it was very bad.
After quickly adjusting his mood, the interrogator continued to ask.
"You just said 'maybe', that is to say, you are not sure. So on what basis do you think that the Amoeba civilization belongs to the second level?"
Since the level of Carter civilization is calculated mathematically, what is the basis for the hierarchical calculation of Amoeba? The interrogator grasped this keenly.
"According to the way the Amoeba civilization gives back information, they realize interstellar information transmission by allowing stars to change their brightness under the visible spectrum, which is in line with the second level of description." Sharon replied.
However, Biaron's answer did not satisfy the interrogators, and the irritable interrogators questioned loudly.
"What are you talking about? There are stars in the night sky that flash like car lights. This kind of event will make headlines the next day. The discoverer can't be just your observatory!" historical
"This change in brightness is difficult to detect with the naked eye, but it is obvious in high-precision astronomical instruments - the star is transmitting information by 'blinking'." Sharon replied.
