Chapter 1011: Chapter 61 Crazy Old Lady
“In this world, have you found the safe?”
At this mont.
The huge bonfire in the middle of the square had already collapsed, and the flas no longer rose high, becoming much weaker, swaying with the wind.
The dance party had ended, but the lively crowd had not dispersed, nor had they gone ho to rest.
So returned to the banquet to battle alongside Big Face Cat; others sat or road in groups around the square, continuing to share the joy of the celebration.
After dancing, Lin Xian and CC sat on the flowerbeds nearby, watching the gradually dying bonfire and chatting under the moonlight.
Faced with Lin Xian’s question, CC shook her head:
“No…”
“I’ve been here for a long ti. I ca here by boat two years ago to the old site of East Sea, and I’ve been searching for the Hafnium Alloy Safe ever since. But, I haven’t found even one, not even a slight clue.”
Lin Xian felt sowhat surprised.
In the previous Fifth Dreamland, so safes could still be dug up in these villages. Why is it that in the current Seventh Dreamland, there’s not even a piece of news about safes?
Logically speaking.
So many villages are digging up Hibernation Pods and Miniature Nuclear Batteries underground.
Statistically speaking, a few safes ought to be unearthed… Even if not their own or soone familiar’s, but not even a single safe being found is just too strange, isn’t it?
Thinking it over.
It seems not just the Seventh Dreamland that completely lacks any trace of safes.
The Sixth Dreamland was the sa!
In the Sixth Dreamland, nearly all tribes around the world were digging for Turing Computers. According to what Big Face Cat and Gao Wen said, just the Bobcat Tribe alone had changed several digging sites, and each site was as big as dozens of football fields.
But even with such mine-sweeping style excavations, not a single Hafnium Alloy Safe was found…
Has Tem Bank disappeared again?
Or is there…
So other issue?
“It seriously doesn’t make sense.”
Lin Xian voiced his confusion:
“If Tem Bank truly exists, it should have left so historical traces. After all, we’re talking about Hafnium Alloy Safes here; those things are very tough, once ford they’re hard to destroy.”
“In your mory fragnts, we’ve also dug so up ourselves, and 600 years have passed, yet the safes are still shining bright, not showing a bit of wear. How could it be that not even one is left behind?”
“I’m not sure either.”
CC shook her head:
“I’ve been searching here for two years, to no avail. If I wasn’t waiting for you here, I might have already gone back to Brooklyn or elsewhere… But in one of the mory fragnts about you, we agreed to et today, so I’ve stayed around East Sea.”
“You told that on August 28, 2624, you could infinitely cycle and venture; so my thought was, if I stay on that day in the most prominent, bustling, and iconic place in the entire East Sea area… you would definitely find .”
“East Sea City is the largest city in this area, and today they are hosting such a grand celebration, you’d inevitably co here for a visit, right?”
Saying so, CC glanced at Lin Xian with a smile:
“See, I guessed right?”
…
It must be said.
CC is indeed very clever.
Through the three mory fragnts he left her, CC had figured out the chanisms of the dream and her own situation of infinite looping.
So she knew.
As long as she stayed in the East Sea Region on August 28, 2624, she would always encounter herself.
Even if she couldn’t find her on the first night, or the second night…
But she was there waiting.
Not wandering around.
She would certainly find her one day.
For a mont, Lin Xian felt… he always seed to make others wait.
In the Third Dreamland, Zhao Yingjun turned into a White Jade Statue and waited for him for 600 years;
Huang Que traveled from the future, left behind a riddle, then silently waited for him to arrive at the answer;
Now CC was doing the sa, waiting for him at the most bustling, most prominent places of each dreamland;
So…
What about Chu Anqing?
Chu Anqing, now transford into the Millennium Stakes, could she also be sowhere waiting for him to find her?
Just like the casual words at the milk tea shop in Xidan Shopping Center where Lin Xian humorously told Chu Anqing:
“[I won’t get lost, I will always find you.]”
Unexpectedly, that beca prophetic.
Soon after, Chu Anqing disappeared from this world, though he had gone against his word, he would definitely not give up!
He believed Chu Anqing was definitely still alive.
And just like current CC…
Standing sowhere,
Not moving,
Not running about,
Tiptoeing and looking forward in anticipation,
Waiting for him to find her amid the tangled tilines and worlds,
Then…
To safely bring her back ho! To bring her back to Chu Shanhe!
This was also the main reason Lin Xian had decided to join Genius Club as quickly as possible.
Certainly.
He was also concerned about the mysteries of his dreams, the goals of the Genius Club, and the truth behind the 00:42 white light.
But as a man.
His first duty was to fulfill the promise to Chu Anqing and the commitnt he made to Chu Shanhe.
That was his foremost driving force.
The Millennium Stakes, so mysterious and unpredictable, could probably only be truly understood after joining the Genius Club.
Lin Xian ca back to reality.
The bonfire on the square had completely extinguished, and the burning charcoal began to emit gray smoke.
