Chapter 1232: Chapter 56 The Mystery of Eternal Youth_2
“But the problem lies in… Einstein’s vision of the future being false, which ans—”
“[If we don’t do sothing, humanity is destined to face extinction in 600 years; and furthermore, we have no way to fulfill our promise to Chu Shanhe and rescue Chu Anqing.]”
Zhao Yingjun pondered for a mont.
She stood up.
With a composed deanor, she walked slowly to the desk, switched on the desk lamp, picked up a pen, and seed deep in thought:
“Through Liu Feng’s experints, the current situation has indeed beco a bit clearer. As of now, we have two key issues that need to be resolved.”
She picked up the pen.
On a blank sheet of paper, she wrote down sequentially:
1. Investigate the secrets surrounding Einstein, uncover the true intent of the Black Hand, and save humanity from the tragic future of extinction 600 years later.
2. Discover the truth of the Millennium Stakes and find a way to bring Chu Anqing back into this world.
Click.
Zhao Yingjun capped the pen:
“Thankfully, compared to the chaotic thoughts you had earlier, we now only have two issues to face.”
“Actually, there’s one more thing, though I’m not sure if it’s important — that is… the identity of the Genius Club’s president, the elderly man wearing the Einstein mask — do you think this is a critical matter?”
Lin Xian rubbed his chin and shook his head:
“I feel that unless I can find him, knowing his true identity doesn’t seem to matter much; after all, regardless of who he is, his actions are predetermined.”
“But if I could find him, then this matter becos significant. I could confront him in reality, sit down and talk face-to-face. Who knows, many difficulties might be resolved, or at least misunderstandings could be cleared.”
“The problem is, let alone finding him, we can’t even locate Newton, Gauss, Galileo—how could Jask and I possibly track down Einstein?”
“If the super AI VV were resurrected, it might be possible, but… that would require hibernating until 2482 and finding the genius programr Cheng Qian first. So you see, this is yet another blocked path.”
Zhao Yingjun turned to look at Lin Xian:
“You and Jask previously suspected that the elderly man wearing the Einstein mask might actually be the undying, ageless Einstein.”
“Haha.”
Lin Xian chuckled lightly:
“To be precise, I’m the only one who suspected that; Jask completely disagreed with my theory. He said the idea of soone being immortal was absurd. If Einstein were still alive, he’d be over 140 years old by now, and Jask doesn’t believe anyone at that age could still have clear thoughts and eloquent speech.”
“I also don’t know how to explain this. I can’t exactly say, ‘Since so many peculiar phenona have appeared in this world, what’s so strange about soone not aging?’ That would sound like nonsensical reasoning.”
“No, no.”
Zhao Yingjun waved her finger and looked at Lin Xian with serious eyes:
“Lin Xian, think back carefully—”
“[So people indeed do not age.]”
One statent.
Lin Xian suddenly had a mont of epiphany:
“You’re saying… Huang Que?”
Zhao Yingjun pursed her lips and nodded:
“Didn’t we just discuss last month? If Huang Que wanted to alert you to the Genius Club ahead of ti, she would have to find you before the first world-line leap. Therefore, the only ti she could choose to travel back would be 2000, when Zhang Yuqian from the Millennium Stakes dissolved into Blue Stardust.”
“Then, when she officially t you for the first ti, it was already 2023—23 years had passed. So you see… doesn’t the question and key point beco obvious now?”
“You, Liu Feng, Gao Yang, and Chu Anqing have all t Huang Que, and you all believe she doesn’t appear to be very old—just in her early thirties.”
“Now let’s deduce Huang Que’s age when she traveled using the Ti Shuttle Machine. First and foremost, she’d have to marry you, have children, and hibernate until 2234, right? It wouldn’t make sense to say Huang Que completed those life milestones when she was eleven or twelve years old, right?”
“That’s clearly impossible. So we can confidently deduce that when Huang Que decided to traverse back to the past tiline to find you… she had to be in her early thirties!”
Lin Xian agreed:
“This inference is very reasonable. Thus, when Huang Que arrived in our tiline in 2000, she was already in her thirties. But when I t her in 2023, she still looked like she was in her thirties.”
“This is solid evidence… Huang Que indeed does not age!”
Then.
What is the reason?
It must be connected to Blue Stardust and the phenona of ti travel.
Lin Xian closed his eyes.
He began brainstorming.
It should… not be that simple.
After all, the No. 17 Ti Assassin also had blue eyes and had experienced ti travel, yet she aged.
In The Sixth Dreamland, the No. 17 Ti Assassin was only seventeen or eighteen, still youthful; but in The Seventh Dreamland, because she had been unearthed ten years earlier, when Lin Xian t her as the village chief, she was already in her thirties, her maturity evident.
Why, then, does the No. 17 Assassin age while Huang Que remains ageless?
The reason…
Can only be…
[Related to the Space-Ti Particles.]
The fundantal difference between Huang Que and the No. 17 Assassin lies in the type of Space-Ti Particles used during their respective journeys.
Huang Que used ordinary Space-Ti Particles—a one-way ticket.
The No. 17 Assassin used Entangled State Space-Ti Particles—a round-trip ticket.
Therefore…
“I’ve figured it out.”
Lin Xian opened his eyes:
“By comparing the phenonon of Huang Que’s agelessness and the obvious aging of the No. 17 Assassin, the only explanation that makes sense is—”
