Chapter 678： accident

Oppenheimer is extremely tired after a day's hard work. Just stepping out of the theoretical physics center named after him, everything looks so beautiful.

It would be even better if the lovely Jenny was by her side.

Oppenheimer wandering around the University of California, Berkeley, looking at the starry night sky with his pipe in his mouth, couldn't help but put down his work and thought about his relationship problems.

For Oppenheimer, his age is not young at all. Born in 1904, he is currently 35 years old, but he has been in the education and teaching stage before. Since I met Jenny in 1936, the famous American physicist has been chasing her wildly. Among them, he made a lot of jokes, but for Oppenheimer, he didn’t care at all, because he felt Found a beloved one.

However, it is a pity that Jane Tetlock did not respond to his pursuit, making him secretly sad about it. But although Jenny did not agree to her pursuit, Oppenheimer still remembered her from time to time, especially when she was free.

Walking along the road to the parking lot, and after taking his car, Oppenheimer drove home.

But he didn't notice, a black car followed him far behind him. When Oppenheimer passed by a remote intersection and was waiting for a red light, he saw the car rushing out and hitting the rear of his car.

Oppenheimer got out of the car after being hit. The headlights of the car that caused the accident dangled so that he couldn't open his eyes. "How do you drive this? Didn't you see the red light?"

Anyone who has been hit by a car will be unhappy, and Oppenheimer will naturally be no exception.

And a man got off the crashed car, glanced at the situation of the crashed car, and apologized again and again. "Sorry, I didn't notice the car ahead. I'm sorry to crash your car. I'm Ralph. This is our business card. All the damage will be with you."

Oppenheimer smelled a strong smell of alcohol from the opponent's mouth, and he seemed to be someone who had drunk. But for this man named Ralph's request to compensate himself, Oppenheimer, who was from a wealthy family, waved his hand and said. "No, I just drive it back and fix it myself."

Oppenheimer planned to return to the car after speaking.

"How can this be? This is the loss I caused. I must be responsible for it."

The man named Ralph hurriedly reached out to hand him his business card. Oppenheimer felt uncomfortable not to pick it up, so he reached out to pick it up. Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly grabbed him. At this time, the man named Ralph was still half drunk. He just wanted to call for help when a handkerchief with a pungent smell suddenly covered him. Snout.

"This is ether..."

This is Oppenheimer's last thought.

After he was fascinated by Oppenheimer, the man put him back in the passenger seat of his own car, while he drove away on the main driver. As for the car behind, it also drove along. It turned out that there were two people in the car. To prevent Oppenheimer from being defensive, only one person came out to negotiate.

After waiting for the vehicle to reach a cliff, the two put it on the main driver, and at the same time took out a bottle of spirits to pour it. After all this was done, the car was started.

I saw the car carrying Oppenheimer slowly driving forward following the eyes of the two of them, and then it fell over the cliff.

The two who were busy with all this, drove away silently.

The next day, all major American media published news about the death of the famous physicist Oppenheimer in a car accident.

……

Edel in Romania knew it earlier than the American media.

"I really thought that Mr. Oppenheimer passed away like this at a young age."

At the Institute of Nuclear Physics, Edel expressed his views on this matter to Einstein, Edward Taylor, Schrodinger, Fermi and others present.

As for the arrival of Fermi, that is another story. It's nothing more than Fermi can't stand Italy's anti-Semitism (his wife is Jewish) and wants to leave. And Romania’s kind invitation, coupled with the promotion of Jewish organizations behind it, finally made Fermi choose to come to Romania.

And Edel is of course happy for the gathering of many physicists, and under their impetus, Romania’s first atomic reactor is about to be built. So besides seeing the reactor, Edel came to cheer up these scientists.

But Edel's tour will also be the same. He can't do anything except express his gratitude to the people in the laboratory.

And listening to the various data of the nuclear reactor introduced by Polksbar is like listening to the heavenly book, and it is still a heavenly book that is completely incomprehensible. This also fully exposed the fact that Edel's previous life was not well-educated (a joke).

After the tour was over, Edel called Polksbar to his side alone. "How long does it take to complete the entire result."

The only Polksbar who knew the whole plan said after repeated consideration. "It will take 7-9 years. This is still the case with sufficient funds and everything goes well."

Edel felt agitated when he heard Polksbar's words, but he didn't show it, but instead smiled and encouraged. "I am very satisfied that the research and development can be completed at this time, so let's do it boldly."

After leaving the Institute of Nuclear Physics, Edel's face sank. In order to make Romania's nuclear research go smoothly, it is still the result of doing so many things.

Yes, the bituminous uranium mine in the Congo was indeed bought by Edel, but this is not the uranium mine that Romania wants to use here. At present, sandstone-type uranium mines have been found in Transylvania, and there are also sandstone-type uranium mines in Sliven in the original Bulgarian territory, so Romanian uranium ore demand does not need to be imported from outside at all and this It is the current countries in the world that are not paying enough attention to uranium and have no insights into uranium development. Therefore, when countries want to conduct nuclear research, then Congo's Hingaluobowei pitch uranium becomes the preferred choice. At present, Edel is most worried about the United States, whose national strength makes Edel feel alarmed. In order to delay the pace of the United States, it is an inevitable choice to take the uranium mine first.

Although the U.S. can mine domestically, it will take time and at least half a year of preparation before the uranium ore can be mined. Moreover, as long as there is a small accident at that time, it is normal for the production of uranium ore to be intermittent. It really can't be delayed, and it can delay time if it blows up. Not to mention how many Jewish physicists have been cut in Romania.

It’s just that Edel’s efforts still require 7-9 years for Romania.

It seems that it is impossible to complete the research on nuclear bombs before 1946. Since Romania can't speed up, so other countries can't speed up.

Thinking of this, Edel ordered the guard. "Let Holmonkman come to the palace immediately, I have something to look for him."

Looking at your majesty with a gloomy expression, the guard answered quickly. "Yes, Your Majesty."

In the following months, many well-known physicists suffered accidents in the United States, including John von Neumann. And this caused a huge sensation in the United States, and all the data investigations about this matter have no clue.

And Edel, who was far away in Romania, only said something to Holmonkman. "Therefore, there must be no errors in the destruction of the information."
