Card Room

Chapter 419

The interplanetary passenger spacecraft quickly broke away from the capital star's gravitational circle and entered the stage of smooth navigation of the universe.

A soft radio sounded in the cabin, "Dear passengers, our spacecraft has begun to sail at a fixed speed. In the next journey, you can go to the hall on the 2nd floor of the spacecraft to buy all kinds of food on your own. The center will be fully open 24 hours. Passengers who need to participate in various entertainment activities can make an advance reservation with a in the spaceship ... "

Everyone is flying for the first time in an interplanetary spaceship. This spaceship is similar to a luxury cruise ship. Except for the rest cabin, other public areas have been transformed into food courts and entertainment centers.

If it weren't for taking the prince to escape from the capital star this time, everyone could relax on the spaceship for two days.

But now, there is no interest in going out to play.

Shao Qingge opened the No. 3 suitcase he carried with him, took out a large amount of compressed food, and placed it on the dining table for everyone to eat. Lu Jiuchuan opened a pack of compressed beef, stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth, and laughed and teased, "Mr. Shao was really equipped and brought such a large box of food."

For the convenience of movement, they all left empty-handed. Only Shao Qingge and Ye Qi brought three boxes of luggage.

Ye Qi came together mysteriously and lowered his voice and said, "We have experienced Zhou Chang once before. It is a copy of the cruise on the sea. Mr. Shao is a special local tyrant. He took us to eat the expensive breakfast in the restaurant. Hundreds of renminbi. President Shao said that for every price and price, the price is good. "

Tang Ci asked with interest, "What then?"

Ye Qi glanced at Shao Qingge. "Then we, like those who eat free breakfast, vomit and diarrhea, food poisoning! Hahaha."

Shao Qingge "... you remember clearly."

Ye Qi finally smiled, coughed, and was serious, "Spade a told us that spending money will still buy the guilt. So, President Shao learned a lesson and did not want to eat on the interstellar spacecraft. I went to a convenience store early in the morning to buy a whole box of sealed food. "

Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci's expressions were "as they were".

Shao Qingge "..."

Shao Qingge had nothing to explain about this black history. He patted Ye Qi on the shoulder lightly. Is there anything wrong with being cautious? Go ahead and cook a packet of noodles for Dad. Do n’t forget that I am in this world Your adoptive father is not big or small. "

Ye Qi's ears turned slightly red, glaring at him with a fatal expression, and turned to cook noodles for "Dad". By the way, he also cooked a bowl for each of his teammates.

Everyone solved the dinner in a simple way, and Xiao Lou suggested, "It's still a long time before the terminal. Let's study the paper money? Has Mr. Shao brought it?"

"Of course." Shao Qingge opened suitcase 1 and it was really full of cash.

In order to prevent the banknotes from moving in the process of dragging the suitcase and causing the order to be disordered, the vacant positions in the suitcase were all filled with white paper of similar thickness. Therefore, the arrangement of the banknotes in the suitcase is exactly the same as the one-meter high safe .

"We put the banknotes in order according to the original order, and found no other patterns." Shao Qingge said.

"Take it apart again." Xiao Lou took the first stack of banknotes in the upper left corner and untied the white bandages that tied the banknotes. Xiao Lou spread 100 banknotes on the ground and looked at them one by one.

Teammates also leaned over and looked closely.

For comparison, Shao Qingge simply summoned at the cash dispenser at the scene, took out a few more stars, and handed out one to his teammates.

Everyone took the paper money that Shao Qingge had just taken out and squatted next to the paper money on the floor of Xiao Lou, and compared the details bit by bit. This scene was like playing the game "Let's Find the Difference".

Tang Ci concluded: "The pattern is the same. The front is the head of the founding emperor of the Luoke Empire. On the back is the face value of 1000 and the uneven Braille, and the number of the banknote."

Yu Hanjiang suddenly said, "Look at the lower right corner of the banknotes, there is a difference in the anti-counterfeit signs."

Among this group of people, Yu Hanjiang is undoubtedly the one with the best observation ability. After all, he is a criminal policeman. He has also encountered many cases in the cases he has detected before, and he is more sensitive to anti-counterfeiting signs.

In the interstellar era, few people have used paper money. The identification card on the wrist is tied to a bank card, and it can be paid directly by scanning. But paper money is hard currency after all, and banks must have reserves. Moreover, paper money must be counterfeit-proof, otherwise large-scale publication will destroy the market economy.

Hearing Yu Hanjiang's words, everyone turned the banknotes to the back, and Ye Qi soon discovered this: "The color of the light is different? For the banknotes left by Mr. Shao, the light of the anti-counterfeit label is a horizontally changing color. I just took it from the at cash machine. The banknotes that come out are changing vertically? "

Yu Hanjiang nodded. "There will be light-variable ink on the banknotes to prevent copying and forgery. The anti-counterfeiting inks of the two versions of the star coin are printed in different ways, so they will cause different angles of color change under the light. Mr. Tang, please check, Empire Has there been any announcement on the revision of Starcoin over the years? "

Tang Ci took out his light brain and quickly told everyone the results: "The banknotes issued since the founding of the Empire have a total of four editions. The safe is the third edition, and the ephemeris issued the fourth edition of the banknotes in August 2975. It has been used until now, and it is the version just taken out at the cash machine. "

Xiao Lou soon realized the key to the problem. That is to say, the paper money left by Mr. Shao Lao was the third edition. This edition stopped printing in August 2975. Since August, new paper money was issued, Want to withdraw 7.5 million denominations of old banknotes from the bank and prove that he must withdraw these banknotes before August 2975? ​​"

After a large number of new banknotes are issued, the old version will stop printing, and it is impossible to withdraw 7.5 million old versions of cash from the bank. Well, the only explanation is that Shao Qingge ’s father had withdrawn 7.5 million in cash and deposited it in the safe before the new banknotes were issued.

The date of July 15th, 2975, as indicated by the placement of the coins, is exactly the same as the time when he withdrew his cash. At that time, the new version of the banknotes had not yet been issued, and he naturally took out the old version.

Yu Hanjiang looked at Xiao Lou and analyzed, "This point also proves our speculation about the date. Ephemeris on July 15, 2975 must be the first time the Noah's Ark project was launched. Mr. Shao Lao did not know what The reason was that a large amount of paper money was withdrawn from the bank at the start of the plan and left as a clue to Shao Qingge. "

He must be uneasy or have a bad hunch about the plan, so he planned ahead and left a clue in advance.

Xiao Lou suddenly asked, "Mr. Shao, do you remember when your father passed away?"

Shao Qingge thought about it and said, "It should have been 18 years ago, shortly after Noah's Ark planned to restart."

He gave Ye Qi another glance and said, "Ye Qi's biological parents, who also died shortly after Ye Qi was born 18 years ago. According to the information, they died in a battle on the front line, but I always feel that nothing happened. It's that simple. I saw Ye Qi's father's name in the signature of the Noah's Ark restart plan. "

Ye Qi scratched his head and said, "I have no impression of my parents. I grew up in an orphanage since I was a child."

Shao Qingge frowned and pressed the temple. He suddenly remembered the reason why he adopted Ye Qi. That year, he went to the orphanage to do charity and donated a donation to the orphanage. As a representative of children, Ye Qi came to the stage to present flowers to him. At that time, Shao Qingge, who was still very young, felt inexplicably familiar with the child's clear eyes, so he adopted Ye Qi.

Shao Qingge looked to Ye Qi, "Ignore all our past experiences, simply in this secret room, we did not know at first. I adopted you because you are the son of Ye Bowen and I have seen your biological father."

This remark is more perplexing, but Ye Qi quickly understood, "meaning that you are my adoptive father. This matter is not just a random arrangement, but some clues related to the Noah's Ark plan that year? Your father, and My biological father has participated in this project? And have you ever seen my biological father? "

Shao Qingge nodded. "Yes, although the impression is not clear, your biological father must have come to my house and had a dispute with my father. At that time, I was very young, I did n’t hear what they said, only heard that they were arguing. . What is certain is that they all died unexpectedly in those two years, my father was in a car accident, and your parents were sacrificed on the front line. "

Xiao Lou frowned lightly. "Isn't your father's death an accident?"

Yu Hanjiang asked "What about the list?"

Shao Qingge also took out his light brain and enlarged the downloaded Noah's Ark restart plan in front of everyone.

The signature page has more than ten names. In addition to the directors of the investor Noah Medical Technology Company, there are several important senior executives of the Imperial Academy of Sciences and the Military Department ...

Yu Hanjiang suddenly had a not-so-good hunch in his heart. He looked at Tang Ci. The latter realized that he quickly typed these names in his brain to make a query, but the result of the query made Tang Ci's face irreversibly change.

He said in a deep voice, "Mr. Shao Lao, died in a car accident on August 10, 2982; Major General Ye Bowen, who died in September of the same year; Professor Qi Zhao, a professor of the Academy of Sciences, was poisoned in the laboratory in November of the same year; scientist Liang Lu, also 11 Sudden death from a sudden heart attack ... "

Every time he pronounced a name, his teammates' faces were ugly.

After he read the deaths of nine people in a row, Ye Qi couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Is it dead?"

Tang said, "There is only one left, Lin Yan's mother, Professor Zhang Shaohua."

Yu Hanjiang's brow furrowed. "In addition to Professor Zhang, all insiders were killed 18 years ago. This is the case in the secret room that Hong Tao needs to investigate-we can't even find the dead body."

Investigating the case, there are corpses, at least to infer the cause and time of death. At the scene of the crime, we can find all kinds of evidence and clues left by the suspect ...

But now, the nine dead have become nine urns, buried in the cemetery.

The scene of the crime was completely destroyed.

A serial murder case without a corpse, and what the **** was the case 18 years ago? !

Lu Jiuchuan has a headache, "How can I check this?"

Everyone's eyes were set on Yu Hanjiang. The old case 18 years ago was much harder than sending everyone to the crime scene for a post-mortem and finding a murderer.

Yu Hanjiang thought carefully and said, "This case cannot use the previous thinking to check the social relations, grudges, hatreds and causes of death of the deceased-no matter how they died, in the final analysis, it must be wiped out. So, we only need to start from the plan Go ahead and investigate those who are still alive, the secrets of Noah ’s Ark plan and the forces behind them. "

Ye Qidao "Ms. Zhang Shaohua, Lin Yan's mother who is being checked by teacher Qu, she is the only one alive in the signature. Will she know some clues?"

Yu Hanjiang shook his head. "Since everyone else has been wiped out, they can't just leave this hidden danger. I speculate that Ms. Zhang is likely to be hypnotized and can't remember the past. The people who broke the mouth let her go because she was General Lin ’s wife may be General Lin ’s protecting her, or His Majesty has sold General Lin ’s face. ”

His Majesty?

Yu Hanjiang mentioned that this person is not obtrusive. Although His Majesty is not on the list, this plan will definitely be related to His Majesty. Otherwise, how to explain to the few princes in the palace?

Xiao Lou glanced at the star coins on the ground.

Similar to the RMB, 100 pieces of pink banknotes are spread on the ground in sequence.

Except that the anti-counterfeit sign is different from the current banknotes, it is confirmed that this is the third version of the star coins issued before 2975. Will there be any other clues on the banknotes?

He squatted down and looked carefully at the front and back of the banknote.

Suddenly, Xiao Lou said, "There is a problem with the number of the banknote."

Yu Hanjiang was startled, and came over and crouched next to Xiao Lou. "Number?"

Xiao Loudao "Bank self-service ATMs will not store so many banknotes, and large cash withdrawals need to be reserved in advance at the bank. For example, when our hometown is engaged to get the gift of the engagement gift, we usually have to make new banknotes and make an appointment to pick up at the bank counter in advance The new banknotes taken out in this way have a rule, that is-consecutive numbers. "

Yu Hanjiang's eyes lit up, and he looked carefully at the number area in the lower right corner of the back of the banknote.

The first g446805;

The second sabfd31;

The third g446806;

The fourth acr333;

The fifth g446807;

The sixth aeff13 ...

All odd-numbered banknotes in the first, third, and fifth sheets are consecutive numbers; all even-numbered banknotes in the second, fourth, and sixth sheets are not consecutive numbers.

Xiao Lou reclassified the banknotes spread on the ground and explained, "The serial number banknotes all start with g, which should be taken from the bank appointment; and the serial number and disordered banknotes should be Shao Lao The gentleman specially found the clues inserted in the middle of the pile of banknotes. "

After being categorized by Xiao Lou, everyone looked at the paper money on the ground again-as it was.

There are a total of 100 banknotes in this stack, and all the even-numbered banknotes are consecutively numbered, and even-numbered banknotes are not consecutively numbered and appear alternately. Finally, 50 consecutive banknotes and 50 cluttered banknotes with clues were screened out.

Excluding the interference of consecutive banknotes, and looking at the cluttered "clue banknotes", you can find a strange pattern.

Xiao Loudao "The numbers in the clue notes are only 1 and 3."

Everyone took a closer look and found that there are no other numbers from 0 to 9 in the 50 clue notes, all 1 and 3, the second 31, the fourth 333, the sixth 13 and the eighth 1111 ...

Ye Qi was puzzled. "What do 1 and 3 stand for?"

Xiao Lou's mathematics is very good, but he has only heard that the conversion between decimal and binary is 1 and 0, and never heard what 1 and 3 represent.

Suddenly the room became quiet, and clearly everyone was thinking.

Just as everyone frowned and meditated, Shao Qingge suddenly stepped forward and said softly, "This is the Morse code."

Chapter 420: The Secret of Noah's Ark

Morse code?

Xiao Lou did not expect this at the beginning, but Shao Qingge reminded him that he also quickly responded. "The Morse code is an internationally-used code that has been circulating for many years. The short dot signal · read the drop and keep it for a long time. -Read, the short signal lasts 1 second, the long signal lasts 3 seconds-exactly 1 and 3. "

Ye Qi stunned. "This is still using the Morse code? It's like playing a spy game!"

Lu Jiuchuan smiled and touched his nose. "So, this box of paper money left by Mr. Shao is really the Morse code? President Shao, do you know how to decipher it?"

Shao Qingge thought for a while and said with a headache, "My father taught me when I was a kid, saying that this is a code passed down from an ancient age. He taught me the same as Professor Xiao said, short tone, long tone, different The collocation can be deciphered into different numbers and letters. On coins, using 1 for short tone and 3 for long tone really makes sense. "

Ye Qi joked, "Do you actually understand the Morse Code? Our President Shao is finally not a scumbag."

Shao Qingge could n’t help crying. “The memory that the gatekeeper instilled in me, I just remembered it.”

He leaned over to pick up the paper money with clues on the ground and said, "This one, the clue number is 31, which is deciphered according to the long and short tone of the Morse code, representing the letter n; this one, 333, long and long, represents the letter o ; 13, stands for a; 1111, four short notes, stands for h; 111, stands for s; 13, stands for a; 131 stands for r; 313 stands for k ... "

This is a clue his father specifically left him.

The Morse code that Shao Qingge learned in his childhood soon appeared in his memory. He quickly deciphered the Morse code on the banknotes, and Xiao Lou took a blank piece of paper and came to record with Shao Qingge's rhythm.

Remembering this, Xiao Lou suddenly said "wait."

Shao Qingge looked back at him, and Xiao Lou flipped the lettered paper for everyone to see.

noahsark.

Tang Ci took the lead in reacting "Noah \ 'sark, Noah's Ark?"

Xiao Lou nodded conscientiously, "Yes, the Morse code that President Shao just deciphered is connected to Noah's Ark."

Everyone "............"

It can only be said that the way Shao Qingge's father left the password is too powerful, and it is more complicated than any square agency passwords encountered in the past, and finally matched the Morse password.

Coins, numbers, Morse passwords, letters in English-Noah's Ark.

The safe he left behind, even if it was found by someone with heart, would not understand the mystery. Most people see a box of paper money, and they only subconsciously think that he has left a cup of money for his son ...

Shao Qingge has a complex mood, "Continue to decipher?"

Xiao Loudao "Go ahead and take out all the banknotes in the whole box. Let's help sort together, remove the interference items of consecutive numbers, and sort out the banknotes with messy numbers and numbers of 1 and 3 in order."

In addition to Shao Qingge and Xiao Lou, everyone else began to act.

There are a total of 8 rows of banknotes in the big box, each row has 9 stacks, each stack is 100 sheets, a total of 7200 sheets, of which 3600 sheets of consecutive numbers are interference items, meaningless, there are 3600 clue notes with numbers 1 and 3 ...

Ye Qi has never seen so many banknotes, and counts money to get cramps.

Yu Hanjiang, Tang Ci and Lu Jiuchuan also quickly sorted out the coins, and then put them in front of Shao Qingge in order.

Shao Qingge deciphered the password one by one in sequence, and Xiao Lou recorded it on blank paper.

The room was extremely quiet, except for Shao Qingge's deep voice and Xiao Lou's writing.

"1311, letter l ... 3313, letter q ... 3113, letter x ..."

Ye Qi sat next to it, and the atmosphere didn't dare to come out.

Listening to Shao Qingge's continuous counting and deciphering passwords, he even had a sense of tension when the underground party intercepted the "Didi Da Da" telegram while watching the spy war drama.

3600 passwords, a huge workload.

Shao Qingge wanted to ensure that deciphering would not go wrong. His memory of learning the Morse code in his childhood became clearer and clearer. After converting 1, 3 into short and long sounds, the speed of deciphering became faster and faster.

In an instant, Xiaolou's paper was already filled with deciphered letters.

Until 3600 notes were deciphered.

Xiao Lou started to translate from scratch--

"The Noah's Ark project was officially launched on July 15, 2975. The scientists have overcome the problem of cell replication. The cell culture fluid they make is theoretically enough to raise a cell to an adult."

"The experiment must be kept secret. Human cells are best taken by a few of our insiders. So, like them, I took the cells of my son Shao Qingge and joined the experimental group ..."

Xiao Lou read this and could not help looking up at Shao Qingge.

Shao Qingge was helpless. "Go on, even if I am a copy person, I can accept it."

Xiao Lou went on to translate “Professor Zhang used her daughter Lin Yan ’s cells; His Majesty ’s cells came from the newly born little prince Xiao Lou.”

After reading his name, Xiao Lou was still calm, he paused, and then said, "A week later, the Academy of Sciences launched a secret experiment. I was very upset. Once I went to the laboratory and found that they actually took my son's cells. I cloned more than a dozen of them in a petri dish. I questioned them, did n’t they just copy one for the children ’s organ donors in the future? They explained that there is a risk of cell cloning failure, and only a few more can guarantee success. rate."

"This approach makes me more afraid-what if those few are all successful? How can I face exactly five, six, or even a dozen Shao Qingge in the future?"

"Qingge is the crystallization of the love between my wife and me, so copy it at random, how should I explain to my son that he has so many 'brothers'? I originally agreed to this plan, in order to be a copy to be a son's treatment person, in case According to scientists, the aging of humans is due to the aging of organs. If you raise a young replicator as a donor and grow old, you can extend the lifespan at any time by taking organs from the replicator; in case of illness You can also get healthy organs to be transplanted to the body at any time, without worrying about rejection. Copying people is like life insurance that humans buy for themselves, giving them one more life. To believe them, I am too stupid! "

"Now, the research of this group of lunatics has deviated from its original intention, and I must stop all this."

"I secretly went to the laboratory and destroyed the Qingge specimen. I felt like I was killing. Those cells are about to grow into a baby shape ... I saw countless babies in the laboratory, God! "

"Due to the mistakes of the scientists, although the cells grew into babies, the babies raised by the in vitro culture fluid had too many physical defects and all died before half a year. The Noah's Ark project was forced to announce the termination!"

The deciphered information stops here.

This is just the record of the first plan, and there is no record of Noah's Ark plan to restart. Obviously, the safe was prepared by Shao Qingge's father after the first plan. The paper money was taken from 2975, which also proves this. When the second plan was launched, perhaps he had been monitored, or he was quickly silenced, and he had no time to leave more clues.

Teammates looked at each other.

Taking the children's cells directly and copying countless identical babies, the picture makes people goose bumps. Xiao Lou took a deep breath. "The first plan, all the replicators died? So, five years later, the plan restarts. Should they have more advanced technology?"

For example, pulling out seedlings can accelerate the process of cell replication and baby growth. Let a baby grow to five years in just one year? Otherwise, how to explain that the second batch of replicators in the palace are the same age as Xiao Lou?

Crazy scientists seem to have overlooked that once human reproduction methods, growth rates, and even genetic inheritance can be completely controlled by humans themselves, scientists can modify human characteristics at will, just like modifying a machine ... nurtured, It cannot be called a "person"!
