Chapter 1509: Contained Too Much Information
This type of number was either an internal call or had been dialed wrongly.
General Ji wasn’t familiar with this four-digit number at all, so it definitely wasn’t an internal call. However, if it was dialed wrongly, it was still amazing that it could be dialed to his study.
There were three landline phones in his study. The most impressive one was the red landline phone. The other two landline phones were for different work needs.
There was also a video call for remote etings.
This was the video call that had just been dialed.
General Ji’s finger hesitated for a mont between the accept and reject buttons of the video call. He originally wanted to press the reject button, but his finger slipped and he pressed the accept button.
The video call in his study was instantly connected.
A man wearing the sa Huaxia Empire’s military uniform appeared on the video call.
It could be seen that this man was old. His sideburns were white, but his brows were firm and handso. His brows were slightly furrowed, and he gave off the feeling that a person who had been in a position of power for a long ti and wouldn’t back down.
General Ji’s mind buzzed. Who was this person?
He had never seen him before. How could he also be wearing the uniform of the Huaxia Empire’s general?
The Huaxia Empire’s number of generals could be counted on one hand. He had never rembered that there was this man among them.
This man was the parallel universe’s military general, He Chengjian.
He didn’t have much ti, so he didn’t give General Ji any more ti to be suspicious. He said, “Hello, General Ji. I’m He Chengjian. I’m the general of the Huaxia Empire in the parallel universe. My position is the sa as yours.”
The parallel universe? !
This was a person from the parallel dinsion?!
General Ji’s pupils dilated, and he quickly regained his composure. One hand was placed on the desk, and there was no movent. The other hand had already quietly pressed the outer alarm button on the desk.
He didn’t sound the inner alarm because he didn’t want to alert the enemy and scare He Chengjian back.
Therefore, he activated the outer alarm button.
When the outer alarm button sounded, it ant that the situation was very complicated and needed to be handled confidentially. This kind of alarm system was connected to the military security departnt and Huo Shaoheng’s Special Operations Forces.
Within ten minutes, these people would secretly rush to his office.
He Chengjian saw that General Ji was unmoving and didn’t seem to be in a daze at all. He also admired him.
Such a person was worthy to be his opponent.
He Chengjian’s expression softened slightly. He nodded and said calmly, “I contacted you today to give you a piece of advice.”
He paused and said word by word, “Don’t try to open a passage and co to our space-ti.”
General Ji cald down at this ti and sneered, “Are you only allowing state officials to start fires and not allowing people to light lamps?”
“General He, do you need to repeat what you’ve done in our world?”
He Chengjian laughed. “General Ji, there’s no point in saying such harsh words. If I wanted to, the entire upper echelon of the empire would have been annihilated during the military parade two months ago.”
“What do you an?” General Ji’s heart sank. “Speak clearly!”
Waiting for Huo Shaoheng and the military police to arrive, he was trying his best to stall for ti.
However, He Chengjian only had nine minutes in total.
He tried his best to speak as quickly as possible.
On the video call, He Chengjian’s image disappeared. In its place was the image of General Ji and the others during the military parade at Rihe City more than two months ago.
From when Huo Shaoheng’s military plane suddenly encountered a hurricane to when he was locked onto by the portable surface-to-air missile at the Rihe City military base and had to parachute out to escape.
Then, on the day of the parade, the portable surface-to-air missile system locked onto the rostrum!
General Ji’s face was ashen. Looking at the video, he saw himself, Speaker Long, Pri Minister Bai, and 15 other mbers sitting on the rostrum chatting and laughing. It was like walking through the gates of hell!
His hands began to tremble uncontrollably. His face was purple, and he was furious.
“General He, what do you an?! Are you trying to catch us all in one go? ! Are you even Chinese?!”
He Chengjian didn’t mind General Ji’s scolding, he calmly said, “Of course I’m Chinese. Although I’m Chinese from the parallel dinsion, we’re from the sa root, so there’s no need to be anxious. If I really wanted to deal with you, you’re already dead.”
“Then what do you an? You invaded our airspace, manipulated our weather to create a hurricane, and then controlled our missiles to aim at our rostrum. Do you want to believe that you an no harm?!”
General Ji slapped the table and stood up. “Do you take for a fool?!”
“General Ji, please calm down.” He Chengjian’s image appeared on the video and he pressed down with both hands. “I’m doing all this to tell you that our technology is much more advanced than yours, so don’t even think about going against us.”
“Also, I have no ill intentions towards you, because I’m only doing this to bring back my daughter-in-law, Gu Nianzhi. She was engaged to my son when she was young, and ca to your world by accident. I thank you for taking care of her for seven years. Now that she’s ho, please don’t continue to harass her.”
“As expected, Nianzhi was kidnapped by you and went over there!” General Ji sneered with his hands behind his back. “Stop talking. You don’t have to worry about what we should do!”
! !
“Haha, General Ji, Don’t talk big. There’s one more thing I want to tell you.” He Chengjian said as he released the “top secret information” from their side.
It was the video of the soldiers’ experint leading to the other world’s parallel space. It was also the video that Gu Nianzhi had seen before.
In the video, they saw the horrifying scene of people from the other world suddenly dying for no reason.
General Ji’s face suddenly turned pale. He stared at the video and was extrely nervous. “What’s going on?!”
“This is the physical principle of parallel space.” He Chengjian’s voice was neither fast nor slow. “The counterpart of parallel space cannot exist in the sa space-ti at the sa ti.”
“In layman’s terms, if they appear in the sa space-ti, both of them will die.”
What counterpart?
What couldn’t exist at the sa ti?
Was he talking about the tos of Arcane?
General Ji couldn’t understand it at all.
He Chengjian couldn’t explain it clearly in such a short ti. He just left these few videos and said, “Ask your high-energy physicists. Since they can figure out magnetic resonance, they will understand what I’m saying.”
“Do you think that our technology is so much better than yours, but why didn’t we co on a large scale? It’s because this is a lose-lose situation. Neither of us can bear such a huge loss.”
“If you’re stubborn, then just send people over. Let tell you, any magnetic field experint of yours is under our surveillance.”
After He Chengjian finished speaking, he showed the surveillance video that they had just captured to General Ji.
“Look, this is the experint that you just did. Our surveillance has discovered it and recorded it. Any movent of yours is under our control.”
He Chengjian smiled aningfully and said, “The person who participated in the experint was your Major General Huo Shaoheng, right? We have Huo Shaoheng on our side as well. I’m going to invite him to the imperial capital as a guest soon.”
“Of course, if you promise not to open the tunnel, I will also seal the tunnel on our side. From now on, we will never speak to each other again.”
Finally, he said, “Also, Gu Nianzhi is living very well here. This is her ho. She will marry my son. On our side, no woman will be more honorable and happier than her.”
He Chengjian then released the photos and videos he had people take of Gu Nianzhi and He Zhichu’s interactions. He said, “Tell your subordinate, Huo Shaoheng, to give up.”
After he finished speaking, nine minutes passed and he cut the video call.
He Chengjian’s video call had just ended when General Ji’s study rang with the unique ringing of a doorbell.
This was their secret signal.
But it was useless now.
General Ji quickly pulled the phone line from the video call and physically cut off any possibility of communication.
“Co in,” he said into the receiver, and then opened the door by remote control.
Huo Shaoheng and the head of the military police rushed in. “General Ji, what’s going on?!”
General Ji looked at Huo Shaoheng and said, “Go to the standing committee eting room and call the other seven people, plus Director Song.”
Huo Shaoheng’s eyes narrowed. “Yes, Sir!”
..
Five minutes later, the seven-mber standing committee of the military, Huo Shaoheng, and Song Jinning once again held a eting in the standing committee eting room.
The military’s video call facility had an automatic recording function. General Ji played the video call that He Chengjian had just had with him.
Of course, he had cut out the last minute’s content. It was the photos and videos of Gu Nianzhi and He Zhichu. He didn’t play them for everyone to see.
He planned to show it to Huo Shaoheng in private.
Even though he cut it out for a minute, that eight-minute video call was a lot of information.
After the broadcast, everyone in the small eting room was in a state of shock.
Everyone was silent for a full ten minutes before soone asked, “Director Song, is what General He said in the video about the principle of parallel space physics true?”
Everything else was fine, but this principle was too f * cking ridiculous.
If that was the case, then their experint really didn’t have much aning.
This was a zero-sum ga where one killed a thousand enemies yet lost a thousand of their own people.
Everyone’s expressions were a little ugly.
Song Jinning was also dumbfounded. After a long while, she said with difficulty, “... Theoretically, there are no loopholes. However, I still need to further theorize...”
“What’s there to theorize?! The other side has already used their lives to verify this theory!” A standing committee mber slamd the table. “I suggest that we seal the experint imdiately! There’s no need to continue!”
Originally, they had started the experint because they were worried that Japan would be the first to open a passage to the other side. However, if they were bound by this layer of physical principles, then even if they did open it, it would be aningless.
This was because it was impossible to communicate on a large scale.
On the national level, small-scale skirmishes had no practical effect.
Huo Shaoheng stood behind Song Jinning. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He felt as if he had been chilled to the bone from head to toe.
How could this be?!
He looked at Song Jinning as if he was asking for help.
Song Jinning pursed her lips and stood up as well. “I don’t think we should rush to a conclusion. Even if the theory that this parallel dinsion counterpart cannot exist in the sa dinsion at the sa ti is true, we can’t give up just like that.”
“Director Song, What else do you want? If you can’t overco this principle of physics, do you really want our soldiers to risk their lives just like those poor soldiers from the other world? To help you prove the principle of physics?”
“Reporting to the Chief! I beg you to give Director Song more ti!” Huo Shaoheng tried his best to fight for Song Jinning’s chance to continue the experint. “After all, we just received the other party’s words. It’s just one side of the story.”
Song Jinning ca back to her senses and said, “Shaoheng is right. When it cos to scientific experints, we can’t just listen to what others say. If we want to master this technology, we need to practice it ourselves.”
“... With the lives of our soldiers?” One of the standing committee mbers folded his arms in dissatisfaction and frowned.
Song Jinning pursed her lips. “The other space uses the lives of soldiers to verify this principle because they didn’t know about it before. It was an unintentional mistake. They didn’t an to use the lives of soldiers for experints.”
“And now that we know, we don’t have to use humans to test it. It’s the sa with animals...”
General Ji heard them arguing, and his heart was in emotional turmoil. He raised his hand. “Stop arguing. We have to treat this matter seriously.”
He looked at Song Jinning. “Director Song, you can continue the experint, but I forbid you from using soldiers and human lives to do this experint.”
Song Jinning quickly promised, “Since I know of this danger, I will not disregard human lives.”
“And you!” General Ji glared at Huo Shaoheng. “From today onward, you will stay by my side and not go anywhere!”
