"You... you mean to say?!"
Upon hearing Mather's words, the female secretary's mouth dropped open in astonishment.
For a moment, I couldn't believe the thought that had just popped into my head.
Mather was pleased with her expression and unconsciously grinned.
But he immediately realized that this was inappropriate and quickly managed to control his expression.
"Right!"
You guessed right.
Mather's expression was serious. "I suspect the current cooling of the atmosphere is largely related to these people!"
"Their appearance coincided with the start of the cooling atmosphere, and they even proactively helped us resolve the crisis..."
"Imagine if this crisis had nothing to do with them, why would they help us?"
Despite knowing the real reason for the cooling of the atmosphere, Mather still chose to talk nonsense with a straight face.
He did want to cooperate with the Mutual Aid Society, but he had to make sure he was properly labeled before any cooperation was reached. Only in this way could he secure his future.
As long as the water is stirred up, no one can uncover the truth. Today they say the cooling of the atmosphere Mutual Aid Society, tomorrow they say it might be the result of natural changes.
Then destroy all evidence that the global cooling program was caused by CW-7.
That will make everything alright.
So Mather adopted a serious expression and said to his secretary, "Because they are suspected of manipulating global cooling, we cannot completely trust them and must be wary of them."
"Regarding their request for a meeting, we can make a decision after careful consideration. Maintaining a somewhat distant attitude will also help us secure greater benefits in future cooperation..."
Using far-fetched logic, before the secretary could realize something was wrong, Mather sent her away to set the tone...
No, it should be that reasonable suspicions are made public to the public.
Soon after, many people in North America saw a message on television and the internet: xS12
"What? That organization that claims to be from a parallel universe is not only real, but may also be the real culprit behind the global cooling?"
"They deliberately created this situation, and then suddenly reappeared to save us, trying to gain our favor?"
"This clumsy scheme has been exposed!"
"If they didn't do it, then why did they?"
Why do you want to save us?
"What are you talking about? What is a parallel universe?"
What happened?
The information released by Mather had a significant impact.
Although the Mutual Aid Society had previously broadcast globally, in the advanced information society of Snowpiercer Spacetime, the number of listeners was actually quite small.
Those who noticed this news were mostly radio enthusiasts or people from official organizations.
Most of the remaining people heard about this online, and they generally didn't believe it, thinking it was something some prankster or a shoe cult had done.
After all, not everyone knows that this broadcast came from a super-large space station that can hold three thousand people.
But things are different now.
The information released by Mather is tantamount to official confirmation.
Although it's a conspiracy theory, it at least tells everyone that the Mutual Aid Society does exist.
Soon, news about Mutual Aid Society and radio broadcasts began to appear on the internet in large numbers, and television stations quickly followed suit.
Many people who were staying at home due to the sudden drop in temperature and the resulting chaos learned about the existence of the Mutual Aid Society for the first time...
Navigator Space Station. XXS-2
"The signal received from the ground is a text message."
The communications staff took off their headphones and retrieved the message they had just received, which had already been automatically translated.
"Someone responded to our broadcast; they wanted to talk to us at... 39°26' to 41°03' N, 115°25' E."
"Meeting within this area at 117"30".
"Hmm... they could actually just say the city name."
"I guess they're worried that the city coordinates in our timeline are different from theirs?"
"Anyway, get this message back to headquarters as soon as possible."
"Understood..." The communications officer gave an OK sign and quickly uploaded the information.
Since the space station was transferred here, it has taken over the important task of establishing spacetime communication connections, and the Spacetime Tunnel used for communication has also been moved inside the space station.
After uploading this latest message, the communications officer immediately received another message, but when he opened it, his expression immediately became extremely strange.
"What's wrong?" a colleague next to me asked, turning around.
The communications officer immediately stepped aside. "Come and take a look?"
My colleague frowned, walked over and glanced at me, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
He twitched slightly, his expression utterly speechless.
"Let's report this news as well..."
My colleague's tone was very complicated.
The communications officer nodded and clicked the report button next to the message.
Wandering Spacetime.
Inside the underground city, Zhang Tianyuan waited in the command hall for news.
Liu Chunshi was also nearby, looking at the latest satellite cloud image, calculating where the super cold air mass would appear next and where to eject plasma.
"President, we received a reply from the Navigator; they've agreed to meet with us." Suddenly, someone raised their hand from one side of the hall.
Everyone's spirits lifted.
"When and where will the meeting be held?"
Zhang Tianyuan took the printed document and began to read it.
But before he could finish reading it, the communications officer's expression turned strange. "President, we've received another message..."
"Um?"
Zhang Tianyuan took it, and after reading only the beginning, his expression became just as strange as the communications officer's.
At this moment, Liu Chunshi shifted his gaze from the satellite cloud image and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Someone in No. 8 Spacetime has agreed to the meeting, which is a good start. As for the rest... take a look for yourself." Zhang Tianyuan silently handed him the documents in his hand.
Then Liu Chunshi also fell silent.
A while later...
The experienced meteorologist then said, "It's alright, at times like this, something unexpected is bound to happen..."
He was already used to it...
"Isn't this just blaming us for global warming?"
"It's no big deal!"
Liu Chunshi's tone was full of stories.
Beside Liu Chunshi, Jack Hall, who had been pulled from the Day After Tomorrow Spacetime to help, twitched his ears. Through the translation headset, he keenly sensed something...
His North America brother...
Looks like they're up to something again?
However, as soon as he turned his head, Liu Chunshi waved to him. "It's alright, just focus on your work."
Zhang Tianyuan also shook his head, choosing to put the matter aside.
Although the truth has not yet been uncovered, the global cooling situation is definitely not simple, and this Mather is probably just making baseless accusations.
A dog that bites should be beaten up.
That's not the key point right now.
He casually tossed the latest news from North America into the trash.
Zhang Tianyuan's gaze shifted to another document.
"Get ready, we're about to leave."
