Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 1045 Strange robbery
Therefore, Einstein called Zhao Bingjun, willing to pledge his scientific achievements and life to let von Neumann participate in the investigation of the matter.Zhao Bingjun clearly knew that this was against the principle, but he did not refuse. Instead, he thought of a compromise and asked von Neumann to identify the scene as the first responsible person.

In this way, von Neumann returned to his laboratory.When I got up in the morning, an agent of a civilian military officer came and told von Neumann that, as the first responsible person, he was going to help solve the case and identify the scene. In addition to indoor activities and temporary suspension of work, they can request to read books and newspapers, and just ask for any requirements in life.

Since it was not yet von Neumann's turn to assist in the investigation of the case, he lit a pipe and sat down in a shaded corner.The systematic and rigorous thinking unique to scientists began to fully activate.The explosive sample and the electric shock device were stolen. These are two important parts of the rocket launcher. The charge is a secret formula. The power of the warhead can be estimated through the charge. However, the structure of the electric shock device is not complicated. They stole this thing What are you doing?

In the Dome Lab, von Neumann focused on optoelectronic and electronic projects. He was not good at weapons, but he also read some materials, objects and events, and began to image them in his mind.Assuming that the rocket launcher's charge formula and firing mechanism have already entered the hands of the enemy, what are they still lacking?The barrel of the rocket launcher?This does not seem to be a filter. With a warhead, an industrially developed country does not have the problem of being unable to launch it, so what else is necessary?He tried hard to remember, the primer, the charge, the fuse is right, it is the fuse!The fuze was designed by Imperial rocket expert von Braun. It is said to be the most advanced technology. This is a piezoelectric fuze that I have never heard of!

Can't let the fuze go wrong again!Thinking of this, he frantically rushed to the duty room, grabbed the phone, and yelled at the switchboard: "Connect me to the 533 special line."

"Password?"

"The sparrows are out of the nest!"

"Please wait a moment." After a while, a steady voice came from the other end of the phone, "Mr. Neumann, what's the matter?"

Von Neumann didn't have time to wonder why the other party already knew his identity before he opened his mouth, but said eagerly: "Please come here, I, I found an important loophole!" The other end of the phone agreed, Immediately hung up, leaving von Neumann sitting on the chair blankly.

I have to admit the efficiency of the Security Bureau. After only 4 minutes, a jeep drove into the yard.Two capable young agents jumped out of the car and asked straight to the point: "Mr. Neumann, what do you remember?"

Von Neumann said, "This weapon system still has one of the most important technical secrets, and no special security measures have been taken." The two agents looked at each other, and one immediately went to greet the duty room and asked for a room. In a quiet house, the other stood vigilantly beside von Neumann, looking around from time to time.Soon, Mao Renfeng and two other agents came to a house, closed the doors and windows, and drew the curtains. One agent took out his notebook and began to ask, "Can you specifically tell me what the loophole is?"

"A new technology that I have never heard of before is applied to this weapon. The complete set of materials and samples of that technology are still stored in the basement of the laboratory building in Area 3." After one sound, he took Von Neumann directly to Area 3.

The confidential officer opened the safe for materials and samples, and there were two leather suitcases inside, revealing a piece of hemp rope thick as a little finger, and three locks hanging on it.Mao Renfeng took out a key that he carried with him and opened a lock, the security officer took out a key and opened another lock, and then Von Neumann also took out a key to open the last lock After opening the box, it was surprising to find that the hemp rope was connected to a napalm bomb and a thermite bomb bundled together.In an emergency, just pull the hemp rope, and the information inside can be destroyed immediately.Usually, a napalm bomb is enough, but, just to be on the safe side, a thermite bomb is added. The thermite bomb has its own oxidizer, and even if it is ignited underwater, the heat released is enough to make the data burn in a few seconds. Boiled into a pulp.Inside the box was a large brown paper bag with the words "Top Secret" printed on it, and the seal was sealed with wax.Von Neumann signed the confidential officer's record book, opened the file bag, looked through the documents carefully, raised his head, and said, "No problem." Then he checked the sample container in the same way. Boxes are equally safe.In view of the accident, these two items have been taken over by the Security Bureau for a period of time after consultation and necessary procedures.

At night, von Neumann tossed and turned in bed, thinking over and over again, where did the problem come from?Frankly speaking, although the level of secrecy of the fuze is high, the difficulty of stealing it is not higher than stealing explosive samples.Although there is an extra cowhide box, he believes that he can open the box carefully without destroying the documents, not to mention the well-trained technicians of the spy department.There seems to be only one explanation for the safety of the fuze data, and that is that the secret agents did not know that there was such a thing.

This kind of weapon device and map information are absolutely confidential. As a first-level scientist in the vault laboratory, although I know some information, I will do it with my most trusted student in the designated area, and on any other occasion. Keep silent.However, this does not explain the problem. The only thing that can be determined is that except for the few technicians, everyone else is a suspect.Thinking of this, von Neumann smiled wryly and shook his head.

He warned himself again that he must not lose his clear mind at this time. Now that his mind is in a mess, he simply lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and played a game of combinatorics in his head.After playing for an unknown amount of time, he fell asleep in a daze.Later, when someone called von Neumann, he scooped up a handful of water and wiped his face carelessly, then boarded the jeep that came to pick him up.

Another tense and rigorous inspection, von Neumann came to the small meeting room the day before yesterday.The atmosphere in the room was heavy and smoky. Seeing von Neumann coming to the venue, Mao Renfeng said, "Mr. Neumann, I'm sorry to bother you, let's continue."

"According to the latest intelligence, the secret agents lurking in our interior have figured out the details of some aspects of the vault laboratory. It is not difficult to imagine that with such comprehensive information, they are an indefinite time bomb that may detonate at any time At this point, Mao Renfeng's cold eyes swept across the congregation, and von Neumann felt his heart tremble for a while.

Von Neumann asked Mao Renfeng, "Is it because the telephone line was tapped?"

Mao Renfeng said: "This possibility has been ruled out."

Then, there are only two possibilities left, one is that the spy is von Neumann himself, and the other is that the spy is one of von Neumann's closest relatives.However, he himself knows best that he only stole samples of nuclear material that night, and he has no intention of obtaining weapons information and maps at all.Could it be the eavesdropping equipment in his own laboratory?It's also impossible, the Security Bureau has irregular radio monitoring, and their own laboratory has always been the focus of their monitoring.However, apart from eavesdropping, what other means can get the news so clearly?Wiretapping?This is simply impossible!Tapping of recordings, regular replacement of recording media?This is even more impossible. The common recording equipment in this era is the record, and the recording equipment is all stupid and black. Can it be hidden in the vault?Speaking of records, he seemed to think of something.He wanted to ask Mao Renfeng, through what channels did he obtain the information, which would be very helpful for his thinking, but the fool also understands that the channel for obtaining information belongs to an intelligence agency, and will not tell unrelated people .

When leaving the venue, he proposed to go back to his laboratory and asked to borrow two better radio direction finders, Mao Renfeng did not refuse him.When Mao Renfeng asked him if he wanted a technician, he smiled and declined.Mao Renfeng is also very clear that facing this giant of science, his technicians are by no means only 01:30 points behind him in terms of technology.

Von Neumann knew very well that there must be something wrong in his laboratory. The investigation results of the Security Bureau have ruled out the possibility of the laboratory. They are still focusing on Area 3 and carefully collecting evidence. The unique sensitivity of a scientist tells him that his laboratory is by no means so simple.A fire of ignorance rose together with confidence and the belief in winning. If it was just playing with technology, the technicians of the secret service department would have to weigh their own strengths if they wanted to fight him.

When he arrived at the door of his laboratory, he turned on the on-board radio reconnaissance equipment, pointed the direction-finding antenna at his laboratory, and a smooth thin wavy line was displayed on the oscilloscope screen.He turned the gain to the maximum, turned the shuttle over and over again, and the reading on the dial was slowly changing. However, there was no obvious display on the screen of the oscilloscope, and there was only rustling radio noise in the earphone.It seems that the car station is out of order, let's go in and check it with a portable tester.

Von Neumann's office is his living room, which is very simple, with a large table on which there are drawing instruments, draft paper, and a computer.Then there is a bookcase, and then there is a bed, a low cabinet in front of the bed, on which there is a record player made in Germany, and a four-lamp electronic tube radio that he assembled himself without even a case.
