Chapter 578: Chapter 16: Reuniting with Chu Shanhe (Extra Chapter for Monthly Tickets!) Chapter 578: Chapter 16: Reuniting with Chu Shanhe (Extra Chapter for Monthly Tickets!) Lin Xian stepped back.
Gazing at the eight gleaming password wheels underneath his naplate on the locked safe:
20240328
This sequence of eight numbers ford a date, marking the 20th birthday of Chu Anqing, as well as the day she vanished into blue stardust.
In fact, until today, when Lin Xian decided to set the password, he had never considered what kind of password he would choose.
He simply thought that any complex password would suffice.
Even a simple one would do.
After all, safes are ant to deter honest people, not thieves.
If his dreams were illusory and crafted by the enemy in a fake studio, the enemy could certainly have cracked the hafnium alloy safe within 600 years using brute force, peeked at the note inside, and reproduced a copy for him to see.
...
The password wasn’t important.
What mattered was the content of the note and needing a fixed reference point like the safe to ensure that he would see the note 600 years later.
For this reason, he never pondered over which password he should set.
But then…
Just as he was about to close the safe, in that instant.
Many thoughts flooded his mind.
He thought of Chu Anqing.
He recalled the fearless girl who dared to jump from an airplane for him, and the day she disappeared as blue stardust.
20 years old.
It was her birthday, and also the day she died.
He never had the chance to wish her a happy birthday, nor did he give her a birthday present; she vanished mysteriously, awaiting the first rays of the dawn on her 20th birthday.
After investigating the Millennium Stakes, Lin Xian firmly believed that Chu Anqing was not dead!
She had only disappeared, not died!
In this miraculous world, there are all sorts of wonderful things and powers.
If ti and causality could be reversed, why couldn’t Chu Anqing, who had vanished, co back?
Lin Xian would not easily give up.
He was determined to find those who set up the Millennium Stakes:
“Return Chu Anqing to !”
Exactly as she was,
Safe and sound,
To the day of March 28, 2024, to the mont I caught her hand in the sky, to the mont I landed and opened my spacesuit to see her joyful smile.
This was an impulse from deep within his bones.
It made him set the date as the password without hesitation, feeling as though it was the right thing to do.
He had thought about it before.
If this was a historical loop, what if he didn’t set this particular password?
Would that not break the loop?
But the problem is…
Brother Wang had said that once the password is set, it cannot be changed.
Would he use the precious space-ti particle and the note, exchanged for Chu Anqing’s sacrifice, to test sothing so aningless?
He was unwilling to do so.
Whether history was a closed loop or not was irrelevant to him.
But at this mont,
Lin Xian believed that only by using this date as the password could he do justice to Chu Anqing’s sacrifice and be worthy of the hardships endured over 600 years.
No wonder he could never guess the password before…
Even if he knew it was Chu Anqing’s birthday,
It was neither the year of her birth nor her 18th birthday, but a seemingly mundane 20th year.
Who would attach so much significance to a 20th birthday?
Moreover…
Before the MX celebration, he did not even know Chu Anqing; he had never paid much attention to this lively and cheerful junior.
“See you there.”
He whispered, extending his right hand to thoroughly scramble the eight password dials, then took one last glance at the hafnium alloy safe filled with secrets and ti:
“[I will find you.]”
Lin Xian turned around and strode toward the tallic wall’s coded door.
Click.
Outside, Brother Wang imdiately opened the door to welco Lin Xian:
“Hey, that was quick.
Many clients spend a lot of ti just thinking of a password.
After all, once set, it can’t be changed, so everyone is very cautious and wants to choose a very aningful password that befits the ti capsule.”
“Then there are others who take into account the possibility of sleeping in a hibernation pod in the future.
Isn’t there a risk of amnesia as a side effect of hibernation pods?
When they wake up without any mories, not even knowing who they are, how can they convince themselves of their identity and believe in the significance of the items in the safe?”
“This has also beco a prevalent social issue as hibernation pod technology advances toward maturity.
The problem of mory loss has beco a major concern for many people.”
“So, many clients consider setting a password that is extrely important to them, whether it’s a number, a date or a code…
to help those who lose their mories understand how important and precious the contents of the safe are to them after they open it.”
…
Lin Xian was sowhat aware of the situation described by Brother Wang.
Nowadays, Xu Yiyi had already entered a hibernation pod, and the first group of volunteers recruited by Dragon Science Academy had also begun their long slumber, with everything appearing to be in good order so far.
It was natural to assu that after a few successful trials, the first mass-produced hibernation pods would hit the market.
Entering a hibernation pod to indirectly travel to the future world is indeed appealing.
But amidst this excitent, the issues of amnesia and mory restoration have beco people’s primary concerns.
Many naively think:
“Write a diary!
Then, after waking up, just read the diary to rember everything!”
“Prepare several hard drives for storing videos, take lots of footage, and rewatch them after waking up.”
