Chapter 207 Secret

Zhao Lan has also heard of the "Starry"-class spacecraft. ☆→☆→, it can be said that the "Starry-class spacecraft is the most advanced, best-performance and most complex spacecraft produced by human civilization to the present. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as the title of "Engineering Miracle". Such a spacecraft has only produced three of them in the entire human civilization, and they are all equipped in the military and have not been used for civil use.

Zhao Lan didn't understand what Li Yunfan wanted to do for such a spaceship, but Zhao Lan didn't ask too much. Zhao Lan knew that since Li Yunfan did this, there must be his reason.

After talking about the matter, the atmosphere between Li Yunfan and the Head of State became much more harmonious. The Head of State walked a few steps on Watson Square with his hands behind his back. He looked up at the sky and couldn't help but sigh: "What a beautiful starry sky, count it... I haven't seen such a beautiful starry sky in several years."

Li Yunfan smiled and said, "This starry sky will always exist. You can watch it every day in the future until you are bored."

The head of state smiled and shook his head: "No matter how good things are, they cannot always be enjoyed frequently. Then they will lose their appeal soon. By the way, Zhao Lan and Li Yunfan, should you two attend the celebration party of the scientific research department?"

"Forget it." Li Yunfan said, "I just returned to Earth and am a little tired."

"Okay, when you have determined the wedding date, I will definitely arrive on time." The head of state said and turned around, "Goodbye."

Zhao Lan and Li Yunfan waved to the head of state's back together and said, "Goodbye."

The head of state left, An Liya, Cruise, and Zhou Xiaoming hurriedly ran over. When they saw Li Yunfan, An Liya was almost speechless. Li Yunfan smiled and waved his hand: "Now there is nothing to say, let's go home first."

So the five of them followed the quiet street back to their residence near Watson Square. After each sitting down, An Liya and the other two reported to Li Yunfan what had happened after they lost contact with him. Li Yunfan just listened quietly and didn't speak. He just frowned after hearing about Rodriguez's rebellion.

"Since this guy is dead, there is no need to say anything else. We are all people with normal identities now. Don't do anything about fighting and killing again in the future." Li Yunfan said lightly, "An Liya, Zhou Xiaoming, Cruise... You three have been with me for a long time, right?"

An Liya and the other two said at the same time: "Yes, boss. It has been more than ten years."

Li Yunfan sighed and said, "In a flash, so many years have passed. You have been with me for so long. Although you have gained a lot of things, you have lost a lot of things. I think you should also experience what a normal life is like. From now on, don't follow me anymore. The companies and consortiums under my name will be transferred to your name separately. In the future, you can live your own life. It's also good to have a relationship, travel, and explore adventures in your spare time, right?"

After Li Yunfan said this, the faces of An Liya and the other two changed at the same time. They were always careless, and An Liya's eyes even turned red and even tears burst out. Zhao Lan had never seen this scene before.

"Boss, do you want us anymore?" An Liya's voice trembled a little.

Li Yunfan smiled and wiped away the tears from An Liya's face, and said softly: "You three are like my little brothers and sisters. How could I not want you? But from now on, you should have your own life and should not be centered on me anymore. If you have time and think of me, you can come to see me at any time. Zhao Lan and I will definitely welcome you very much."

An Liya and the other two breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. An Liya's face was still covered with tears. But her head had already started to point out: "Boss, don't worry, we will definitely come to see you often."

"Okay, OK, everyone has been tired all night. Let's go and rest first. I have something to say to Zhao Lan." Li Yunfan waved his hand, and An Liya and the other two scattered and returned to their room. As for whether they can still fall asleep, I don't know.

Zhao Lan is sure that Li Yunfan’s previous proposal to hand over all his power in exchange for the head of state to whitewash his identities was not for himself, but for An Liya and the other three. Obviously, Li Yunfan thought of this issue with Zhao Lan and thought that An Liya and the other three should have their own lives. Now that everything has been successfully resolved, Zhao Lan’s mood has also relaxed.

"You must have many questions in your heart." After An Liya and the other two left, Li Yunfan said to Zhao Lan: "It's still a long time. Please ask slowly, and I will answer you one by one."

Zhao Lan did have many questions in her heart, but at this time, all of those questions suddenly disappeared and no one could remember. Now, Zhao Lan has truly understood a truth. Compared with her future life, previous questions and other things are actually irrelevant.

Those small questions disappeared, but there was only one question that Zhao Lan always maintained a full curiosity, that is, where did Li Yunfan's black hole come from? Rodriguez said before that Li Yunfan's black hole was picked up from around the earth, but this was obviously impossible. And human civilization could not have the technology to create black holes, and even Li Yunfan could not do it.

So Zhao Lan asked, "I only have one question, where did you get your black hole?"

Li Yunfan had a true expression: "I expected you to ask me this question. It doesn't matter, I will tell you all the way from beginning to end."

Li Yunfan picked up the water cup on the coffee table and took a sip. His eyes narrowed, as if he was trapped in distant memories: "Before answering your question... I will ask you a question first. Zhao Lan, do you really believe that the human civilization government has lost its ambition to explore the universe. Even if it has established a city on Mars, it is unwilling to take another step to explore Jupiter?"

Zhao Lan subconsciously said, "Isn't it...well?"

Zhao Lan did think so before, but now that Li Yunfan asked this question, Zhao Lan realized that it was really strange. There is no fool in the government and scientific research department, especially the leaders of civilization, which are even more unlikely to make such stupid mistakes. They cannot not understand that only the stars and seas are the destination of mankind. So... why is it because of the human government has been severely restricting the exploration of Jupiter?

Seeing Zhao Lan fall into deep thought, Li Yunfan said: "Actually... the human government has arrived at the Jupiter system long ago, and even further away, Uranus and Neptune have arrived. As for Pluto, I don't know. With the information I have, the human government has always had plans to land on Pluto, but I don't know if it has been implemented in detail."

Zhao Lan's reaction was quick: "You mean that the human government has arrived at Jupiter long ago, and just concealed these things for some reason?"

When thinking about this, Zhao Lan felt a little ashamed. Because Zhao Lan clearly remembered that when she first attended the scientific research department meeting, she once criticized the head of state for losing its enterprising spirit in person, which gave it a great embarrassment. Who would have thought that it was not the head of state who lost its enterprising spirit, but that she had not seen all this clearly.

"It is rare that the head of state could swallow his anger at that time. Not only did he not refute me in person, but he admitted his mistake in governing in public..." Zhao Lan thought secretly.

Regarding Zhao Lan's question, Li Yunfan directly gave a positive answer: "Yes, the reason why the human government concealed Jupiter's manned exploration plan was that it did not want civil forces to participate. Because it is obvious that in the current era of interstellar development, as long as the human government has explored the Jupiter system, the subsequent civil forces will inevitably demand further and seize territory and interests in the Jupiter system, which will become an unstoppable trend. In order to avoid this situation, the human government simply claimed that the Jupiter system had not been explored by manned, so that it would fundamentally avoid trouble."

Zhao Lan asked subconsciously: "So... why should the human government avoid this? Isn't this a favorable thing for humans after the government's detection first and then introducing social forces to develop the Jupiter system?"

"Because there is a huge secret in the Jupiter system." Li Yunfan said to Zhao Lan mysteriously: "The reason why the human government prohibits civil forces from participating in the exploration of the Jupiter system is to ensure that this secret is not discovered by others, and to avoid possible accidents and dangers."

Zhao Lan's heart was as itchy as if it was a cat scratch. Zhao Lan knew that this secret must be very important. In order to keep this secret, the human government even risked the infatuation such as "staying complacent" and "losing the spirit of exploration" to strictly prohibit the Jupiter exploration plan. But what secret is this? What kind of secret is qualified to make the human government pay such a huge price?

"The black hole I obtained is related to this secret." Li Yunfan said with ease: "I was also shocked when I first learned this secret from my teacher, but when I really arrived at the Jupiter system and saw it... I confirmed that all this was true."

"This secret is...there is one or more unknown civilization remains on the Jupiter system." (To be continued.)
