Chapter 746: Chapter 5 The Abandoned Earth Chapter 746: Chapter 5 The Abandoned Earth Wei Shengjin?
Upon hearing this thunderous na, mories flooded Lin Xian’s mind.
He dared to say…
He was sure he could never forget such a stunning na in his lifeti.
The first ti he saw this na was in The First Dreamland, the first ti he t Big Face Cat, the first ti he was forcibly dragged to rob a bank, the beginning of everything…
When he used Big Face Cat’s C4 to blow up an ancient password door and arrived at the warehouse lined with safes embedded in the wall.
Lin Xian rembered clearly, right next to the safe engraved with his na was the safe engraved with “Wei Shengjin.”
That na was truly unforgettable at first sight.
...
Now, nearly two years had passed.
Lin Xian had long forgotten what na was engraved on the safe to the left of his.
But the one on the right, “Wei Shengjin,” still remained fresh in his mory.
At the end of The First Dreamland.
Lin Xian, Big Face Cat, and CC decided to forcibly cut open the safes using an Industrial Acetylene Cutting Torch.
At the ti, CC was afraid that the high-temperature fla would destroy the contents inside the safes…
So he suggested not to cut directly into Lin Xian’s safe, but to start from the safe next to it and then slowly move over.
Although this plan eventually failed due to the Space-Ti Butterfly Effect of the Hafnium alloy.
At that mont, Big Face Cat, holding the loudly hissing Acetylene Cutting Gun, indeed heated Wei Shengjin’s safe until it was scalding hot.
In The Second Dreamland, Tem Bank went bankrupt, and those safes were transported to the Waste Treatnt Plant as garbage…
Wei Shengjin’s Hafnium Alloy Safe was in the first batch of garbage trucks that arrived at the garbage station, and Lin Xian noticed it at first glance.
It was unexpected…
Such a legendary figure, whom Lin Xian had long admired, was actually t today, in The Fifth Dreamland, in this primitive forest 600 years later!
Lin Xian couldn’t help but step forward and grasp the old man’s right hand:
“I have long admired your great na!”
?
The white-haired old man tilted his head to look at Lin Xian, scrutinizing him carefully:
“Young…
young man, do we know each other?
Have we t before?”
Lin Xian nodded:
“Not to conceal from you, Uncle Wei.
I also have a Hafnium Alloy Safe at Tem Bank, and our safes were next to each other, being neighbors for several hundred years.”
Wei Shengjin furrowed his brows:
“That shouldn’t be right?
Young man, what’s your na?”
“Lin Xian.”
Lin Xian explained to Wei Shengjin:
“Forest’s Lin, guitar string’s Xian.
Do you rember, Uncle?
My safe was engraved with my na much earlier than yours, even before Tem Bank was officially established.”
“Lin…
Xian…”
Uncle Wei Shengjin shook his head:
“Impossible, impossible.
Although I’ve already lost my mory and can’t recall the details of when I stored the Hafnium Alloy Safe.
But when I set the password at Tem Bank, I had already considered the possibility of amnesia due to hibernation.”
“So I took a photo of the password wheel early on and tucked it in my mory journal to remind to open the safe at Tem Bank after waking up from hibernation…
The photo clearly shows, the safes on both sides of mine were engraved with foreigners’ nas, English on the left and it looked like Russian on the right…
I’m quite sure, neither of the safes next to mine could be yours.”
…
Now it was Lin Xian’s turn to be stunned.
He was certain.
In The First Dreamland, their safes were definitely right next to each other.
In The Second Dreamland, that was uncertain because by the ti Lin Xian entered the Tem Bank warehouse, the safes had all been removed from the concrete walls, with their original arrangent unknown.
As for The Third and Fourth Dreamland, he never even entered Tem Bank, so he didn’t know the situation inside.
Could it be a subtle Space-Ti Butterfly Effect that separated his safe from Wei Shengjin’s?
Thinking it over, it was indeed possible.
Lin Xian recalled a detail…
In both The First and The Second Dreamland, the safes had no numbers.
Each safe’s naplate only had a na, without a nurical code.
But when Brother Wang obtained his own investnt and reopened Tem Bank’s warehouse safes in 2024, for so reason, they were engraved with nurical codes.
On the first day when the Hafnium Alloy Safes were delivered, Brother Wang very graciously gave himself safe number 66, with the intention of blessings for everything to go smoothly and prosperously.
Lin Xian propped his chin, thinking.
Could it be…
That the safes in both The First and The Second Dreamland hadn’t been engraved with numbers due to the low quantity?
Brother Wang had said, his original motive for founding Tem Bank wasn’t for business; it was purely an interest, a childhood dream, without the intention to make it big and powerful.
His initial plan was just to set up a few dozen, maybe a hundred safes at most, so there was no need for numbering.
But with his own strong investnt and support, and the expansion of a series of financial services, Brother Wang ordered over 200 Hafnium Alloy Safes in the first batch alone.
Maybe…
as Tem Bank’s business expanded and the clientele increased, they would order a second and third batch of Hafnium Alloy Safes?
“Young man, what number is your Hafnium Alloy Safe?”
Uncle Wei Shengjin asked directly:
“My number is 724, what’s yours?”
No wonder…
Lin Xian thought to himself, he had guessed right and answered:
“Mine is number 66.”
“Oh~~~”
Uncle Wei Shengjin suddenly realized:
“Then our safes couldn’t possibly be next to each other…
Such an early number as yours, you must have lived around the ti Tem Bank was just established.
Looking at your youthful appearance…
You must have gone into hibernation not long after buying the safe, right?”
