Kid, You’d Better Stop! The Nation Can’t Keep This Secret Any Longer

Five-year-old Shen Jingzhe appears on the livestreamed show Diary of Observing Human Toddlers. While the other children play in the mud and pretend to cook, he builds a “miniature controllable nuclear fusion reactor” in the sandbox. The host teases him: “What do you want to be when you grow up, little guy?” Shen Jingzhe pulls out a stack of sketches. “First I’ll build a fleet of aerospace carriers, then, if I have to, I’ll become Earth’s planetary defense commander.” The viewers in the livestream laugh themselves silly, taking it for childish nonsense. Until a retired legend of the military-industrial sector happens to see the broadcast. He swallows three emergency heart pills on the spot and roars at the screen, “Quick! Secure the scene! Those are real star-destroyer blueprints!” The next day, the kindergarten is taken over by fully armed special forces. From all-weather stealth fighters to controllable nuclear fusion, from the Southern Heavenly Gate Project to space elevators... The heads of military regions camp outside the kindergarten every day, fighting over equipment, while senior leaders are torn between pain and joy: “Kiddo, slow down with the drawings! You’re going to use up every last screw in the country’s military factories!” Years later, the White Eagle Federation watches Xia Nation’s star fleet hovering over the Pacific and collectively breaks down: “You call that a five-year-old?!”
