Chapter 524: Chapter 90 Millennium Stakes (Three-in-One Finale)_2 Chapter 524: Chapter 90 Millennium Stakes (Three-in-One Finale)_2 Like a featherlight slip of paper, as heavy as the turn of the century:
“[Look again on the other side…]”
Chu Anqing and Lin Xian faced each other and spoke softly:
“[You will definitely understand.]”
…
Lin Xian took the small slip of paper.
Pinched it between his fingertips.
It felt so light, as though weightless and insubstantial through the thick gloves of his spacesuit.
Yet inexplicably,
Lin Xian felt that this thumb-sized folded slip of paper…
was so heavy.
It bore the weight of a 600-year span of ti.
...
The weight of supporting a whole world’s reality and illusion.
He nodded his head.
His gaze shifted from the slip of paper back to Chu Anqing’s face:
“Okay, I promise you.
I believe you.”
He unzipped the orange spacesuit zipper at his chest.
It was one of the only two personal pockets on this suit, designed for astronauts to carry personal items.
Many people would normally put photos, notebooks, or trinkets and souvenirs inside—sothing personal to the astronaut.
After unzipping,
Lin Xian placed this light yet heavy slip of paper into the pocket.
According to the plan he had previously conceived,
he definitively could not know the content on this slip of paper, and the current tifra also prohibited anyone other than Chu Anqing from knowing.
Because there are no walls that don’t leak, once outsiders found out, soday, under so circumstances, he would too.
Trust no one who claims they can keep a secret; this was a validation plan for the virtual world that must be foolproof.
The core concern was not the fear of others, or the fear that enemies might see or understand the content on the slip paper beforehand.
The real critical issue was himself.
He had to ensure that before seeing the slip in the Dream World, he had no idea what its contents were.
And when he opened the hafnium alloy safe in the Dream World and saw the content on the slip for an instant…
It would instantaneously enlighten him.
He would understand everything in an instant.
Realizing the reality and deception of the Dream World.
This was a double-blind experint.
He didn’t know what was written on the slip, and the enemies didn’t know what the content ant for him.
This ga spanning ti and reality.
The outco.
Would only be revealed the instant he saw the content of the slip in the Dream World, 600 years later!
Squeak—
After securing the slip of paper, Lin Xian slid the zipper with his right hand, formally sealing the slip.
“Skyspace aircraft altitude!
Atmosphere 36,000 ters!!”
From the radio communication channel, the voice of Driver Wei Cheng bellowed:
“An Qing!
Please be aware of the position of the space-ti particle.
Inform if there’s any deviation, and if any adjustnts to direction or speed are needed!”
Chu Anqing imdiately looked outside the equipnt cabin window.
It appeared.
Coach Wei Cheng’s driving skills were indeed top-notch.
Without navigation, without a target, without guidance, he had persisted so long without losing track of the space-ti particle.
Currently, outside the window, one could see the sun rising from Earth’s edge.
It was due to their altitude.
Actually, down on Earth, it was still night.
Chu Anqing blinked her eyes.
Even in such bright sunlight, that small blue flickering orb, the space-ti particle, still looked eerily luminous.
No one else could see it.
But she saw it clearly.
Turning back, Chu Anqing scanned the crew:
“Let’s continue capturing the space-ti particle.”
“What!?
You still going!” Gao Yang leapt up:
“For real, you can’t go, big sister!
Just look at what happened to you just now, your face covered in blood!
And you still dare to go!
Have you lost your mind!”
“Besides…
besides, we all saw it clearly, the rice cooker, I an the space-ti particle captor, has already fallen down!
Without the captor, what will we capture the space-ti particles with!”
“You can’t seriously think about catching space-ti particles like catching dragonflies or butterflies with bare hands, can you?
That would be ludicrous!
Liu Feng has already said that space-ti particles are intangible; they pass straight through anything they touch, unless it’s only inside the rice cooker…”
As he spoke,
Gao Yang froze.
He turned his head back to the spot where he had always been sitting, the chanical arm control station.
He then realized,
The space-ti particle captor…
There were two!
True, one had already fallen.
But there was still one installed on the top of the chanical arm, and it was still functioning perfectly!
“But your body…” Gao Yang looked down at Chu Anqing.
He admitted, he was truly moved by such a petite girl’s bravery and fearlessness.
His contact with Chu Anqing wasn’t extensive.
The first ti they t was at the MX Company’s celebration.
At that ti, he was busy eating lobster and didn’t pay much attention to Chu Anqing; moreover, it was Lin Xian and Chu Anqing’s first eting, and Gao Yang quickly forgot about this brief encounter.
The second real eting was at Ji Lin’s birthday party, where Chu Anqing asked him about any high school classmates, specifically girls who might look like her.
Then they played guessing gas and board gas together.
Chu Anqing had always seed to him a simple, cute princess from a wealthy family.
Indeed, she had a nice personality and was easy to get along with.
Recently, during the training at the Astronaut Training Base, Chu Anqing also demonstrated amazing astronaut talent, which impressed him.
But after all,
That was it.
In Gao Yang’s eyes, she was just a second-year university student, carefree, kind-hearted, and essentially unchanged in nature.
