I really just want to be a scholar

On the international flight to Miami, the flight attendant showed what she thought was the sweetest and most beautiful smile and handed the tea: "Academician Qin, the two cups of tea you want."

"Thank you." Unfortunately, Qin Ke didn't pay attention to her expression at all. He just responded with a polite smile, took the warm tea, and thoughtfully said to Ning Qingyun next to him: "Honey, the temperature of this brown sugar ginger tea is just right. You If you drink it first, you should feel much better."

"Yes." Ning Qingyun snuggled into Qin Ke's arms weakly, lowered her head and took a sip of the hot brown sugar ginger tea. It was a bit spicy, but it made her feel sweet.

The day she went abroad happened to be the time when she welcomed relatives, and the discomfort caused by the long-distance flight made her feel quite uncomfortable. Fortunately, Qin Ke took good care of her throughout the whole process and prepared a hot water bottle for her. After getting on the plane, he asked the flight attendant to prepare brown sugar ginger tea...

The stewardess saw this scene in her eyes, and her heart was full of envy. Academician Qin is really the best husband in the world... He is handsome, rich, smart, and most importantly, considerate and dedicated. He only has Academician Ning in his eyes. , never take other beauties seriously.

When the flight attendant returned to the cabin, several colleagues immediately gathered around and asked in a low voice: "How is it? Does Academician Qin look particularly handsome up close? Is Academician Ning particularly beautiful?"

This is a special plane, and Qin Ke and his two are the most important passengers. In addition, there is Wei Feng’s security team. Even the accompanying photographers and logistics personnel sent by Qingmu University in the past have all been replaced by Wei Feng’s team members to avoid All unstable factors.

Under such strict protection, only one flight attendant could approach at a time, and the rest of the flight attendants had no chance to observe these two celebrities up close.

The flight attendant laughed quietly: "Academician Qin is handsome, and Academician Ning is also beautiful. Especially Academician Ning is very good-looking. Although he looks a little uncomfortable and his face is a little pale, he looks very charming. Academician Qin is very fond of her. Very good..."

She whispered again about Qin Ke taking care of Ning Qingyun.

"Wow, that's great. I heard that they have been together for many years, right? Not only do they not have the seven-year itch, their relationship is getting better and better."

"They have similar IQs and similar interests. They are husband and wife and scientific research partners. Of course they have a good relationship."

"Hey, I wonder if I can ask them for an autograph and a photo before getting off the plane at the destination."

"That's right, I was suddenly sent on a special flight. I was still thinking about who the big shot would be, but I didn't expect it to be Academician Qin and Academician Ning. It's really lucky! I used to be a fan of them. For someone with a low IQ like me, , they are simply super idols who can do anything.”

"Yes, and Academician Qin is also very interesting and talkative. I watch every live broadcast he does, and it always makes me happy..."

"Sigh... the more you talk, the more disappointed I am in my boyfriend. Compared to Academician Qin, my boyfriend is like an imbecile. He only plays games all day long and doesn't accompany me..."

"Sisters, please don't use Academician Qin as your fantasy partner to find a boyfriend. I wanted to find a smart and knowledgeable boyfriend before. I didn't want a boyfriend like Academician Qin, but half the level would be fine. As a result, my friend introduced me to him. I have a few Ph.D.s, but they are honest, but not interesting at all. They chatted awkwardly throughout the whole process. There was also a Ph.D. who actually talked to me about his experiments when we first met, hahaha..."

Several flight attendants were chatting with nothing to do. The captain came over, knocked on the cabin wall, and said seriously: "Calm down, they are all on duty now!"

"Yes~" A group of flight attendant ladies stopped.

……

Although Qin Ke's seat was a little far away from the flight attendant's cabin, and the hum of the plane's engine was relatively loud, Qin Ke's hearing had always been far better than that of ordinary people, and he could still hear roughly everything.

He couldn't help but be amused and a little envious. These were carefree ordinary people who focused on the trivial matters of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy in life...

Qin Ke rarely talks about these topics with his friends now. At least now as the situation becomes more and more serious, he no longer has the leisure time to pay attention to these small things in life.

Especially before boarding the plane, he received a new email from the Goose Country Meteorological Center. Super cold air masses converging from the Arctic had begun to invade the borders of Goose Country, kicking off the "Little Ice Age" that would invade the northern hemisphere countries.

This super cold air mass was large in scale and had a strong impact. As soon as it arrived, the local temperature began to drop to the ground at an exaggerated speed of 10 degrees Celsius per hour. The thermometer hanging in the field was directly frozen. No further messages were sent back.

Photos monitored by meteorological satellites show that wherever the cold air mass passes, it has become an ice sheet area (i.e., an ice sheet area), and the trees and forests have all turned into ice sculptures.

It is expected that in the center of this super cold air mass, the cooling rate will be even more terrifying. It is not surprising that dripping water turns into ice. If ordinary people are not indoors and stay in it for more than two minutes, they are likely to die from hypothermia.

At present, many communication stations are unable to transmit signals because the temperature is too low. It is not yet clear the local casualties, but the situation is not optimistic.

Qin Ke sighed secretly in his heart.

Even though he had already predicted such a day using big data models and issued warning signals in advance, when the disaster really struck, he still felt a little heavy.

Moreover, this Little Ice Age is different from those in history. The summer is likely to remain extremely dry, and although the maximum temperature will be slightly lower than last year, it is still considered a historically high temperature period.

Such an extreme climate of extremely cold winters and extremely dry and hot summers is almost unprecedented.

The only good thing is that this year is only the first year of the "Little Ice Age" and the situation will not be particularly bad, especially since this super cold air mass will gradually weaken as it moves south. By the time it reaches Xia Kingdom, its lethality has been reduced. The Xia Kingdom will suffer much less damage than the Goose Kingdom.

The next few years will be the key...

Qin Ke frowned.

The situation was more serious than he had originally predicted.

According to his current big data prediction model, the "first sign" of "world collapse" recorded in the mysterious message from the parallel universe will appear in three years at the earliest, and probably five years at the latest.

It can be said that if he cannot prevent this trend from worsening within three years, the first serious extreme climate disaster that threatens all mankind will come to the world in an unstoppable manner.

Even if famine and freshwater crises are avoided due to the emergence of computational seed science, perfect desert sweet potatoes, and seawater desalination technology, extreme disasters will still bring painful disasters to mankind...

Qin Ke, who has always been positive and optimistic, found it difficult to be as calm and relaxed as usual when facing the huge pressure of only three years.

"What's wrong, you keep frowning?" Suddenly, he felt Ning Qingyun, who was leaning on him, move, and then his eyebrows were gently rubbed by a soft and smooth little finger. Qin Ke gently held her little hand and said with a smile: "It's nothing. I just think that the weather is getting worse and worse. I guess it won't be easy to go to Sweden to win the Nobel Prize in December."

Because Ning Qingyun was not feeling well, Qin Ke didn't let her see the email from the National Meteorological Center, so as not to worry her too.

"Yes... when we return from the United States, we will probably encounter super cold air heading south." Ning Qingyun participated in Qin Ke's research throughout the entire process, and her understanding of the situation during the Little Ice Age can be said to be He is second only to Qin Ke, and more "knowledgeable" than Lao Tao, who joined later.

Qin Ke hugged his wife's delicate body that was as warm as jade and said with a smile: "Don't worry about this. We have the 'high-altitude extreme abnormal airflow early warning and flight avoidance route system' that we have developed before. Super cold air masses can cause The abnormal airflow is also within the monitoring range of this system, and the flight is relatively safe."

Ning Qingyun sighed softly: "I'm a little worried about the two babies and my grandparents in Yuanzhou..."

"You don't have to worry about our family. We have already made complete preparations. We even have backup generators. No matter how cold it is, you are not afraid of it. Moreover, the capital is not the coldest place. The Northeast is the hardest hit area. Yuanzhou is far south. , at most it will be a heavy snowstorm, and the lowest temperature should not be lower than -20 degrees Celsius." Qin Ke is not too worried about his closest relatives and elders. He had already called them one by one beforehand and repeatedly gave them various instructions. Measures to keep out the cold.

Ning Qingyun's grandparents have also moved back to Yuanzhou City. They are currently living with Qin Ke's grandfather and parents. They take care of each other and have two caregivers with medical licenses in case anything happens. They can also respond quickly and send them to the hospital in time.

In fact, Qin Ke doesn't need to worry about these details at all. With his status today, Yuanzhou will take good care of him and Ning Qingyun's family.

"By the way, with your physical condition, will you be able to participate in the judging meeting in two days' time? How about I go up and take charge of the whole meeting?" Qin Ke changed the subject.

In recent days, he has been busy with research plan formulation, data center upgrades, and the migration of Shimmer. Ning Qingyun has taken the initiative to take on other tasks, including the preparation of disaster prevention response booklets and the preparation of this Hodge event. Guess the judging panel.

Hodge's conjecture is one of the world's seven major millennium mathematical problems. Even if it goes through the process, a public expert review meeting is required before IMU can announce that it has been officially proven and turned from a conjecture into a theorem.

Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun have no objection to this. Their interest is mathematics. It is good to have such an opportunity to take a breather from the heavy big data analysis work. It can also enhance their relationship with mathematicians from all over the world and improve their skills. Xia Guo’s status in mathematics.

After all, you can’t just think about extreme climate disasters, otherwise there would be no fun in life?

"No, we can get to Miami tonight. As long as I rest for a day or two, I will be full of energy and defeat all invading enemies!" Ning Qingyun clenched her little fists cutely and followed suit. Qin Ke said in his tone.

She was so cute like this. Qin Ke couldn't help but kiss Ning Qingyun's smooth side face: "Can you stop being so cute?"

"No way." Ning Qingyun looked around with a slight blush, then squeezed Qin Ke's hand again, and said warmly: "I just thought that you have worked hard during this period, so you should rest more first. When the time comes, the international I still have to give a report at the Mathematicians Conference.”

Ning Qingyun's mastery of new geometry is obviously different from Qin Ke's, but as long as he prepares carefully, he will be able to cope with such an argumentation meeting with certainty.

Qin Ke smiled and said: "Okay. In fact, I really want to see you standing on the stage in front of countless mathematicians and still confident and talking."

As long as he thinks about this girl who was trained by himself and finally reached the world's top mathematics stage, Qin Ke feels a sense of accomplishment that he has reached the best ending in the development game.

It is said that those Internet writers even dared to imagine raising a "XX" as a wife even when writing novels. As for him, he directly raised a wife to become a great mathematician. In the world, he was probably the only one who dared to imagine and successfully achieved it.

Ning Qingyun smiled brightly and hugged Qin Ke's arm tightly: "It's been a long time since we went abroad."

"Yes." Qin Ke then remembered that they had not been abroad for more than a year. The last time he went abroad was after the National Day holiday last year, when he and Ning Qingyun went to Europe to receive the Marcel Grossmann Award.

However, receiving the award was just a matter of course, mainly to achieve comprehensive and in-depth cooperation with the European Meteorological Center.

More than a year has passed in the blink of an eye. Now not only the European Meteorological Center, but also the meteorological centers of major developed countries around the world have reached the same comprehensive and in-depth cooperation with him, and jointly established the "Global Joint Research and Response Team for Extreme Weather Disasters" .

Time really flies by when we are busy, and the years are like edges.

Qin Ke hugged Ning Qingyun tightly: "I seem to have been busy with this and that for more than a year. I'm sorry for making you work so hard."

Ning Qingyun said softly: "For me, it is the happiest thing for me to be able to stay with you through hard work and play my role."

Qin Ke smiled softly. After being a married couple for a long time, Ning Qingyun became more and more able to say such love words.

However... smelling the delicious fragrance of his own cabbage and feeling her unreserved attachment and love, Qin Ke rekindled his strong fighting spirit and confidence in his heart.

No matter what the collapse of the world is, no matter what the ice age is, no matter whether it is due to changes in the sun that cause such frequent extreme climate disasters, in short, if soldiers come to stop it, and water comes to cover it, I will definitely be able to protect this extremely precious thing around me. Be happy, let your children, and let everyone in the world continue to live such a peaceful and happy life!

……

Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun's flight to the United States attracted great attention.

At least the United States takes it very seriously.

With the current attention Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun have and their irreplaceable core roles in leading research on global extreme climate disaster response, they have long gone beyond the definition of "scholars" or "scientists". They should be called "Scientific research leaders" are "scientific leaders" that are related to the common interests of all mankind. No leader of any country or organization can afford the serious consequences of unexpected events for them.

So when Qin Ke's special plane flew into the airspace of the United States, a fighter squadron appeared around the special plane and arranged an escort lineup in accordance with the prior agreement.

This is top-level treatment that even heads of state in some small countries cannot enjoy.

When the special plane arrived at Miami International Airport in the evening of November 11, the welcome scene was even more exaggerated. At this time, the temperature in Miami had dropped below 1 degrees Celsius, but the president of the National Academy of Sciences, the governor of Florida, the speaker of the state assembly, and the Miami All the leading figures in the city's political and business circles came, and a large number of media reporters also heard the news and swarmed over to prepare to record this big news.

When Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun walked out of the VIP channel hand in hand, what they saw was a grand welcome scene with clouds of flags and a sea of ​​slogans.

The most eye-catching slogan is written in both Chinese and English - "Warmly welcome our most distinguished friends, Academician Qin Ke and Academician Ning Qingjun!" - This was placed in mid-air with thousands of drones!
