Reborn mosquito, wreaking havoc on your life!

The crisis swept across the United States like a tornado.

Every corner of the United States is tainted by insecurity and anger.

From the zombie wave in California, to the mosquito infestation in New York, to the reappearance of zombies in Texas, the series of disasters that occurred in just a few weeks completely shattered people's confidence.

Johnson, a resident of Pennsylvania, has been retweeted millions of times for his angry remarks on Twitter. His words directly hit the pain points of countless people:

"What is wrong with America?! Every day a new disaster happens, and what is our country doing?!

"We have gone from being a superpower to being a laughing stock of the whole world! You know what? My child asked me, 'Dad, is the United States going to decline?' I can't answer!"

Such sounds can be heard everywhere.

The US social network seemed to have become a venting pool, with hundreds of millions of voices of condemnation and despair interweaving into an unstoppable tide of anger.

Some called for unity to face the challenge.

But more people fell into disappointment.

There was also a gloomy atmosphere inside the Pentagon.

Inside the operations room, the staff stayed up all night for days on end, developing response plans for the ever-changing crisis situation.

However, faced with the disasters that followed one after another, they felt powerless and frustrated.

“We used all the resources we could.”

A senior officer spread his hands:

"We've tried hundreds of scenarios, but we don't even know who the enemy is!"

In such despair, more people began to turn to the American think tank, Dr. Stein, for help.

On the rooftop of the Capitol in Washington, Stein looked up at the sky. The gray sky made him look even more haggard.

This American think tank, a Jewish scientist, now seems to be carrying the entire weight of a collapsing empire.

“Is supernatural power really invincible?”

Stein whispered to himself, his voice full of fatigue and helplessness.

"The United States has the most powerful military force in the world, but it is useless against its enemies.

"We don't even know where the enemy is or who is manipulating all this. This feeling of powerlessness is more despairing than anything else."

Stein closed his eyes, and the familiar figure appeared in his mind again——

Terence Tao, the peerless genius, his most outstanding student.

"If Tao is still alive, he must have a way."

Stein's voice was choked with sobs:
"He is the smartest person I have ever met, without a doubt. It's a pity that God is jealous of his talent..."

Just as Stein was falling into deep despair, the ringing of his cell phone broke the silence.

He glanced down at the screen, and was slightly startled by the name on the caller ID.

Tao Xiangguo, Terence Tao's father.

"Dr. Stein, when I was tidying up my son's room, I accidentally discovered a hidden compartment in the ceiling."

Tao Xiangguo's voice was filled with excitement:
"There's a locked notebook inside. I've tried many passwords but can't open it. Maybe you'll be interested."

Stein's expression suddenly became serious.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked in a deep voice:

"Where are you now? I'll send someone to get you right away."

Any relics and unfinished drafts left by Terence Tao during his lifetime are regarded as national treasures by the United States.

The inspirations that a genius writes down casually may be the peak that others will never be able to reach in their lifetime.

After Terence Tao's death, the United States searched and sorted his belongings many times, but they had already been cleared out.

No one expected that such a hidden encrypted notebook would be missed.

Stein quickly made a phone call and arranged for his subordinates to rush to Tao Xiangguo's residence to retrieve the notebook.

The whole process is completed within one hour.

...Soon, the notebook was delivered to Stein.

Stein sat in his study at home, the light illuminating his wrinkled face, with Terence Tao's belongings placed in front of him.

A black notebook.

The cover of the notebook looks a little old, obviously having gone through a long time, but it is still well preserved.

In the center of the notebook is a small metal combination lock, and its shiny luster makes it stand out.

"Tao, what on earth did you leave behind?"

Stein chose not to pry the lock open violently.

He didn't want to destroy his students' precious relics.

This is not just a notebook, it carries Stein's emotions.

"The password is four digits..."

Stein muttered to himself.

He recalled all the possibilities in his mind, trying to find clues from Tao's habits and research during his lifetime.

Stein tried various passwords.

0042——The ultimate answer to the universe, wrong.

6626——The first four digits of Planck's constant are wrong.

2997——The first four digits of the speed of light, wrong.

0618——Golden ratio, error.

Stein's fingers trembled slightly.

Neither the variants of higher mathematics nor the numbers of Fermat's Last Theorem were successful.

Hours later, Stein's coffee had gone cold.

He leaned his head back on the chair, closed his eyes, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and frowned:

"Strange, algebra, geometry, calculus, what fields are these numbers from? What exactly is the password? Is the only way to brute force this lock?"

Just as Stein was deeply confused, brisk footsteps were heard outside the door.

His lovely granddaughter Elvira ran in, wearing two ponytails and a pink dress, with her hands behind her back and her big, childlike eyes blinking.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, what are you doing?"

Stein raised his head, and the fatigue on his face eased a little.

He reached out and rubbed Avella's head, smiling lovingly:
"Avella, be good. Grandpa is busy. I will play with you later. Grandpa is cracking a code now."

Stein pointed to the notebook on the table:

"This is a difficult problem left by the most powerful mathematician of our time. The code is very profound, and Grandpa is trying to figure it out."

Avella tilted her head and glanced at the notebook on the table:
"Cracking the code? That's fun! Grandpa, I want to play too!"

Stein couldn't help laughing and said:

"Okay, then you help grandpa crack it. I'll go heat up the coffee first."

Stein stood up and left the study, thinking that it would be harmless to let the little girl play for a while, as she would lose interest in a few minutes anyway.

A few minutes later, when Stein walked back to the study with a cup of steaming coffee, the scene before him stunned him.

I saw that the notebook on the table had been opened, and Elvira was reading the contents with pride on her face.

She raised her head and said with a smile:
"Grandpa, come and see if I'm smart or not. I opened it! Come and praise me!"

Stein was stunned, and after a few seconds he slowly walked to the table.

His eyes moved down to the lock of the notebook, and the combination lock had been opened.

He held his breath and asked in a low voice:

"Avella...how did you do it?" (End of this chapter)
