Gou’s back opened, and the chip indeed fit inside.
Afterwards, Gou’s back closed, and Lu Xi’an got Gou to connect to the RV, wanting to test if he could directly communicate with Gou as it read the chip’s contents, to understand the specific contents of the chip.
So after Gou accessed the RV, Lu Xi’an asked, "Gou, is there anything in the chip?"
Gou replied, "The chip contains storage units, with so text information and image information detected, which can be displayed on the screen. Would you like to view it?"
It seems possible!
Lu Xi’an imdiately said, "View."
Then the central screen showed lines of text records—
Observation Record: X-17 Strain Space Experint Revised Version (Microscopic Imaging Chip Archive)
Experint Number: X-17-β-0987
Experint Location: Near-Earth Orbit Space Station "Celestial Vault Laboratory"
Researcher: Ye Wenxin
Assistant: Yao Huo
1. Experint Background and Objectives
Earth Experint Failure:
Earth version "X-17 Strain" caused tabolic imbalance due to genetic instability.
60% of samples in the Earth laboratory showed abnormal mutations, making them unsuitable for practical use.
Space Experint Necessity:
Utilizing microgravity environnt to suppress gene expression interference factors.
Objective: Cultivate highly stable strains to provide enhanced survival solutions for extre environnts.
2. Type A Strain Space Modification
Core Improvent Directions:
Gene Lock Solidification: Inducing directed mutation through cosmic radiation, locking in reinforced genes like titanium skeletal structure, magnetohydrodynamic joints (tagged **"X-37℃ Strain"**).
tabolic Cycle Regulation: Implanting ketone conversion system, extending the no-supply survival cycle from 30 days to 180 days.
Ergency Application Record:
Earth communication signal interruption... must initiate backup plan.
Signal has been lost for over 360 days, with cabin reserves nearly depleted.
Current physical condition confirms bone density has dropped to critical levels, unable to withstand long-term stay in space and impact of forced return to Earth, ergency protocol must be triggered.
Supplent:
Given current circumstances, astronaut Yao Huo and researcher Ye Wenxin voluntarily beco Type A modified test subjects.
This was the last recorded entry, archiving completed.
The text is sparse, but spans a long tiline, specially filtered out by Gou.
Once the text finished playing, Gou spoke again: "Detected erased content, restorable to visible experint content record, would you like to view it?"
Lu Xi’an said, "Let’s take a look."
Then the screen displayed new texts—
Lu Xi’an glanced at them; it’s all so experint on cosmic radiation-induced CRISPR-Cas12k enzy directed mutation, then implanting conversion systems, decomposition functions, densely packed information that he couldn’t understand.
Lu Xi’an recalled the booklet confiscated from the Neo-Human at ngxin City, now mimicking that Neo-Human’s behavior, marking several large question marks on the screen.
Moreover, there were several failure records, which Lu Xi’an skimd over, descriptions like radiation overload, unintended fusion of symbiotic cyanobacteria genes, ketone body poisoning, and uncontrollable incidents.
These contents were sothing Lu Xi’an couldn’t comprehend, let alone Yao Wei.
The only thing he understood was the above tistamp—
to 2113.
This year... Lu Xi’an had so impression: the observer up on Ox Head Mountain in Jianshan City had a notebook with the final record ti seemingly from 2112, right?
This should be an important junction, but what exactly happened at that ti, Lu Xi’an doesn’t know yet.
And why did Yao Huo and Ye Wenxin decide to delete these contents back then?
Was the chip storage space limited and unable to store more contents?
Or were these contents unnecessary to preserve? Or was there sothing sensitive that he couldn’t understand?
He sighed and said, "Just save it first, don’t look at it anymore. What about the video? Does the video have anything?"
Gou answered, "The video has only one segnt, recorded on October 1, 2113."
Lu Xi’an said, "Play it."
Then the screen started playing.
The content seed like scenes under a microscope, sothing Lu Xi’an couldn’t decipher but watched from start to finish.
After confirming the video content had no other peculiarities, Lu Xi’an had Gou stop the playback and ejected the chip.
Seeing Yao Wei staring at the chip in his hand, he placed it in a tal box and handed it to Yao Wei, saying, "Here."
"Hmm."
Yao Wei nodded, went to the RV’s rear, and carefully stored the tal box.
Then she asked, "Lu Xi’an, was I born in that lab?"
She pointed towards the return capsule’s direction outside, with a serious and earnest expression, as if she’d take the capsule with her if it were the place she was born.
However, this was just a strange feeling that Lu Xi’an had and shouldn’t be taken seriously.
This is not the world of Dragon Ball; there’s no such thing as a transformation capsule, and the capsule is so large that it can’t shrink down. Yao Wei couldn’t be this unrealistic.
Hmm... speaking of which, it would be great if this world had transformation capsules. That way, the car could be used directly as a place to rest overnight, and they could travel purely by foot, without worrying about the car getting damaged, and speeding up would be so convenient.
Unfortunately, that’s impossible, just wishful thinking on my part...
Lu Xi’an thought it over carefully and replied, "It shouldn’t be. First of all, it’s just a return capsule, the thing they used to return to Earth.
"Outside Earth, there’s also a near-earth orbital space station, which is the Celestial Vault Laboratory. It’s ntioned in the chip record.
"Let give you an example; it’s like the relationship between our RV and a drone. The return capsule is mounted on it, specifically for use when returning to Earth."
"Hmm."
Yao Wei nodded, indicating she understood this point.
Lu Xi’an knew she still had questions, so he continued, "Moreover, in outer space, there are quite a lot of things to worry about, and the danger is considerable.
"You can see from the records the changes in bone density and such. It’s so dangerous, who can know the risk of having children?
"You know we have to wait until after revenge to have children, let alone them.
"One of them can beco an astronaut, and the other is a professional biological researcher. They definitely know more than we do and are smarter and more rational than us.
"Besides, you’re a Type A Neo-Human now, definitely born after they beca Type A Neo-Humans.
"They consud a strain cultivated at the space station to beco Type A Neo-Humans to adapt to the space environnt and to face the impact if the return capsule forcefully returns when losing contact with the Earth base.
"There are significant risks involved, and it should be quite urgent...
"Think about it, how old are you now? How many years ago were they in the universe?
"They probably gave birth to you only when they felt completely stable and safe on Earth.
"But your Type A is sowhat different from other Type As. This is what your parents brought you; work hard, and you might be even stronger."
He intended to use this final sentence to divert Yao Wei’s attention, not wanting her to get caught up in this past issue.
He wasn’t afraid of answering questions but worried that Yao Wei would get imrsed in a certain emotion from which she couldn’t extricate herself.
But Yao Wei found it difficult to snap out of it, softly saying "Hmm," then lowered her head to ponder and asked, "But why..."
She stopped abruptly when she got to this point.
Lu Xi’an sighed inwardly and asked, "What why?"
Let’s see what question Yao Wei has and whether he can help her solve it.
Otherwise, keeping this question and emotion bottled up isn’t good.
Yao Wei was silent for a while, as if contemplating how to express herself.
After a while, she finally mustered it up and asked, "Why is my na written in the notebook?"
As she spoke, she took out that yellowed, curled, and tattered notebook and opened the page with writing on it.
The page read: Rose Yao Wei.
Lu Xi’an gently exhaled and said, "Maybe this was written after they arrived on Earth.
"Perhaps they lived here for a while and then had you.
"Or, they might have spent a long ti together in space, beca enamored with each other, and agreed to have a child once the danger passed, like us."
"Your mom might have already thought of what to call you and wrote it down in the notebook, who knows."
On other pages or the damaged parts of this page, there might be the na of a boy, but unfortunately, it can no longer be seen.
"Hmm..."
Yao Wei nodded and said nothing more.
Lu Xi’an then asked, "Shall we take a look at this now?"
He picked up a tal box, which contained a hard drive, still in good condition.
The hard drive didn’t need to be connected to Gou; it had a built-in data cable to connect to the laptop and view.
So both of them left the front cockpit, jumped into the back of the RV, opened the laptop, and connected the hard drive.
The hard drive’s folder opened, containing many photos: of a woman, a man, outer space, and vast oceans.
Yao Wei stared in a daze at the photos, lost in thought.
Lu Xi’an noticed sothing, and as the laptop screen switched to a photo of a woman, he asked, "Is it her?"
"Hmm..."
Yao Wei nodded again.
This was her mom.
Not particularly beautiful, but inherently attractive, slim, and shared so resemblance with Yao Wei.
And the man in the photo should be Yao Wei’s dad. This handso astronaut resembled Yao Wei by seven-tenths.
Yao Wei inherited the advantages of both, making her quite attractive and long-lasting, both in bones and skin.
He made room for Yao Wei, allowing her to click through the photos on the mouse by herself.
He stood behind her, quietly watching, and understood that these two Neo-Humans who returned from the cosmos indeed stayed here for so ti.
This place used to be a vast ocean, which is why there was an ocean backdrop in the photos.
It’s unknown whether they left after the ocean receded or found a way to leave while it was still present.
Yao Wei looked at each photo, very seriously, fully engrossed, until finally, all the photos finished displaying, and a video started playing.
