The moon base I built was exposed

Chapter 12 When I See an Alien, Give Me a Word
"Adjust the propulsion system..."

"Heng'e No. [-], prepare for the last mission..."

"Start landing!"

"ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss"

On the big screen, Heng'e-[-] was descending rapidly. When she was completely captured by the moon's gravity, the bottom began to eject gas, slowing down the speed of landing.

Seeing that the rate of decline was not obvious, Chief Engineer Yang quickly said: "Increase the thrust..."

Under his remote control, Heng'e-[-] adjusted five times before finally reaching the proper landing speed.

"Bang~!"

Heng'e No. [-] landed successfully and did not make any sound, but the people present felt that there should be a sound here.

"Adjust the camera according to the way I said..." Colonel Chu immediately stated the new request without waiting for everyone to feel sad.

Soon, the big screen was divided into eight pieces, each of which displayed a picture independently.

"Everyone is watching carefully, and if there is any abnormality, report it as soon as possible!"

Senior Colonel Chu said loudly, his eyes fixed on the third screen, which was the location of the landing point of White Rabbit No. [-].

"Does this really work?!"

Mr. Yang felt that even if there were aliens, they wouldn't be so stupid, would they be fooled by such an obvious trap? !

Moreover, this time Heng'e-[-] is a purely electronic device with no breath of life, so it may not be able to attract aliens.

Although he was not hopeful about this operation, Chief Engineer Yang dutifully looked at the fifth large screen. The lens was on the upper side, and a small half of the screen was the pitch-black outer space. Correspondingly, the horizon that could be seen was longer. farther.

Three and ten minutes passed.

"My eyes are sore..."

"How long do we have to wait?!"

The staff was quite energetic at the beginning, but as time went on and the picture didn't change, they also started to get a little tired.

Colonel Chu frowned slightly, and seemed dissatisfied with these people, without taking his eyes off the screen, he said, "Persist for another half an hour, if there is still no change, I will call someone to take over here..."

At this moment, Mr. Yang suddenly felt that the picture in front of him seemed to move.

"There is a situation, look at the fifth screen!"

He let out a cry and stared intently.

When the others heard it, they were all attracted to the fifth screen.

On this screen, where the outer space meets the ground, there is a black dot, which seems to be moving.

"what is that?!"

Colonel Chu adjusted his glasses, took a few steps closer, and stared at the screen closely, for fear of missing key information.

After more than 30 seconds, the black dot on the screen finally grew to the size of a mung bean, allowing everyone to see its true colors.

"Stone?!"

Mr. Yang was a little dazed. In the picture, the rolling black dot was just a stone, which was nothing special.

Assistant Xiao Wang murmured: "It should be a meteorite that was just sucked into the ground..."

There is no wind on the moon, so the boulders must be affected by gravity to move so much.

"It shouldn't be a meteorite. I've been staring at the picture. It didn't appear from outer space, but from the horizon..."

Chief Engineer Yang denied the meteorite statement, and said directly: "A typical phenomenon of lunar rockfall should be the movement of rocks caused by lunar earthquakes..."

After knowing that it was just a rock, he was a little disappointed in his heart. After all, as a staff member of the space agency, he had seen many such moving moon rocks.

Rockfall? !
Colonel Chu didn't believe it, and stared at the screen without blinking.

In the picture, the stone is getting bigger and bigger, so big that it occupies one-fifth of the area of ​​the lens, and there is still a distance from the lens.

Only then did people realize that it was a huge stone with a diameter of at least ten meters by visual inspection.

"Wait, what is that?!"

At this time, someone suddenly pointed at the screen and said with a look of horror.

Not only him, at this moment, everyone who looked at the fifth screen found something abnormal.

In the lens of Heng'e-[-], a very neat square gap suddenly appeared on the surface of the boulder.

Immediately afterwards, something similar to a tentacles protruded from the gap.

"Beep~!"

A faint red light shook the camera, and in the next second, all eight screens turned black.

"what happened?!"

"Why did it turn black?!"

Colonel Chu looked at Mr. Yang for the first time, and found that the other's face was filled with astonishment just like his.

"This should be something that blocks the signal?!"

Mr. Yang asked in disbelief.

Colonel Chu nodded, and the horror on his face disappeared, replaced by excitement.

"All the video data shot by Heng'e-[-] will be backed up and sent to this USB flash drive..."

After speaking, he paused for a moment, looked at the audience, and said loudly: "Let me declare in advance that everything you see today must not be circulated..."

It seemed unsafe to do so, so he took out the old-fashioned push-button mobile phone, dialed a button, and the call was connected.

"Come and seal it!"

After just saying three words, I hung up the phone, I believe that someone will come to sign a non-disclosure agreement with the space agency.

The power represented by Colonel Chu is very strong. A few minutes after the call was hung up, a large number of people rushed in and blocked the scene.

Looking at the group of murderous people around him, Mr. Yang understood that this matter had become a big deal.

He was a little worried and asked, "Colonel Chu, what should we do if it is confirmed that it is an alien?!"

"You don't have to worry about these..."

Colonel Chu thought for a while, and then said: "How many spaceships exist on the ground that can carry people to the moon?!"

what? !

Chief Engineer Yang was startled, and said: "Only White Rabbit No. [-] is officially in service. Besides that, there is also a spare test machine. It is not sure whether it can go to the sky..."

Colonel Chu nodded, patted Chief Engineer Yang's arm, his eyes were full of enthusiasm, and said: "Debug this test machine, find two astronauts who can operate the equipment, and be ready for launch at any time..."

This……

Foreman Yang is getting old. Missions like this in outer space need to be planned a year in advance, or even a few years. How can there be a temporary flight? !
Suddenly, he realized something.

"Wait, don't you want to go up in person? There is no news about the three people on White Rabbit No. [-]!!!"

"There is a chance to negotiate with aliens, why not?!" Colonel Chu raised his lips, as if he didn't care about his life or death at all.

This is a desperate madman!
The words were not speculative, and the two sides were speechless for a while.

Halfway through the sealing work, Mr. Yang was silent for a long time, and couldn't help but asked again: "Aliens, it should not only be a matter of our Great Xia Kingdom, should we notify other countries?!"

"Not for now!"

Colonel Chu's mood has returned to normal, and he said lightly: "After I have talked with the aliens, I will decide whether to notify other countries..."

"But, what if you go up and disappear?!" Mr. Yang said worriedly.

"Ah!"

Colonel Chu smiled slightly and said, "This is the signal to notify other countries!"

Mr. Yang was taken aback for a moment, and soon realized the meaning of Colonel Chu's words.

Colonel Chu wants to go to the moon to communicate with aliens first, and if he succeeds, he will seek huge benefits for Daxia.

If it can't be done, the worst plan is to completely disappear from everyone's sight like Zhang Tao and the others.

This also means that Colonel Chu wants to bet his life to judge whether the aliens appearing on the moon are opportunities or dangers for Great Xia.

Mr. Yang's emotions were a little complicated, and he looked at Senior Colonel Chu with a hint of admiration.

After a long time, he said: "If you meet Zhang Tao at the alien base, please give me a word..."

Colonel Chu couldn't help being curious when he heard the words, and asked, "What are you talking about?!"

"Zhang Tao, I have something to tell you, that bastard you want to break his leg... the bastard who climbed your balcony to have a private meeting with your daughter, he is my son..."
