Cheng Cheng and the Cicada
Chapter 65 Brooklyn
Thanks to Gao Wen, the last part of the time machine was quickly completed. Liu Feng admired Emperor Gao Wen immensely, his eyes full of stars. "Professor Gao, you are a true savior!"
"No, no, no." Gao Wen shook his head like a rattle-drum, bowing hastily.
"Professor Liu, you laid the groundwork so well in the early stages; I am merely standing on the shoulders of giants."
"Professor Gao, you are too modest! This is all thanks to you!" Bow x2
"Professor Liu, you flatter me. It is my honor as a junior to be of assistance." Bow x3
"Professor Gao!" Bow x4
"Professor Liu!" Bow x5
Lin Xian pulled the two apart.
"Alright, you two, enough with the mutual admiration." He stood in front of the time machine.
This complete version was not much different in appearance from the time machine he had seen in the Eighth Dream.
Emperor Gao Wen had clearly said that if it could be directly connected to the power grid, it wouldn't need to be so bulky.
But Liu Feng worshipped Emperor Gao Wen to the extreme, insisting on building it according to Emperor Gao Wen's engineering drawings, calling it a tribute to and respect for the original. Lin Xian placed his palm on the cold shell. This scene
was just like his actions in the Eighth Dream. Finally, it had come true.
So much sacrifice, so much effort, so much hard work.
In the end, in a desperate situation, he had carved out a sliver of last hope—
[Travel back to 1952 to find a way out of the predicament.] "This is our last hope," Lin Xian said with his eyes closed. Today is December 9, 2234.
After waking up from hibernation, he rode his motorcycle every night to explore the remaining directions, but after exploring them all, he couldn't find a second living person.
This meant that obtaining information from the dream world had been completely blocked off. He had even considered
finding the location of Mai Mai's hibernation pod in the present 2234, and then building a space-time communication point connecting 2234 and 2624.
This way, he could buy the entire underground hibernation base, put his safe inside, and then enter the cave in the underground crevice again in the Ninth Dream to open the safe. But things didn't go as planned, and now he faced two difficulties. First,
Mai Mai in 2234 was only 12 years old, and it would be another 5 years before she entered the hibernation pod. He certainly couldn't disturb her during these five years; otherwise, if he interfered with her future trajectory, whether she would hibernate in the future, and where she would hibernate, would all change. If that were the case, the only clue would be lost, and all previous efforts would be in vain. Second,
the location of the hibernation pod would constantly change over hundreds of years, which was also an unknown.
For example, his and Gao Yang's hibernation pods.
When they went in, they were still at the Imperial Capital Dragon Science Academy, but when they woke up, they had been transferred to the East Sea. Who could guarantee that the underground hibernation base in 2234 could last until 2624? Rather,
according to normal building structures, it certainly wouldn't last. So for safety's sake, Mai Mai's hibernation pod would definitely be moved several times during these 400 years.
In all likelihood, the underground hibernation base where Mai Mai's hibernation pod was located in 2624 hadn't even started construction yet.
Therefore, this plan was shelved. Lin Xian also went to Time Bank.
He learned that Gauss's anti-hibernation virus had caused Time Bank's business a huge
blow, and even resulted in a payout that nearly bankrupted it.
But it didn't matter, Zhao Yingqun's family was large and powerful, holding three giant companies in her hands. Could she really let Time Bank go bankrupt?
A little blood transfusion to keep it alive would do.
Now, with Rhine University backing it, Time Bank was even more financially powerful, bankruptcy was impossible; coupled with the complete disappearance of the anti-hibernation virus, the hibernation craze had reignited, and Time Bank's business had also begun to skyrocket.
Lin Xian entered the Time Bank warehouse and stood in front of his safe No. 66 for a while.
He knew that
the space-time particle capture device, also known as the rice cooker, was still lying quietly inside. The rice cooker contained an ordinary space-time particle, and the small note that Chu Anqing had written to him at the last moment of her life.
But now, with the safe impossible to find in the Ninth Dream, this path to breaking the deadlock had also been blocked.
Therefore,
the time machine, traveling back to 1952, was the only and last hope. Find out the truth about the Millennium Pile,
find out the secret of the Genius Club and Einstein,
find out the connection between Zhang Yuqian's dream and the white light of destruction.
This
was the purpose of his time travel. "Everything depends on tomorrow."
He turned his head to look at Gao Wen and Liu Feng, who had started bowing to each other again.
"Tomorrow, the comet carrying astatine-339 will enter the outer atmosphere. Various countries have been deploying their forces for many years, preparing to use orbital nuclear weapons to shatter it." "Otherwise, if this super-large comet, which is more than ten kilometers in diameter, hits the Earth, the destruction it causes would be no less than the one that wiped out the dinosaurs."
"At that time, tens of thousands of fragments will turn into meteorites rotating around the Earth's orbit, and when they fall down will depend on fate. But even if they fall down, it doesn't matter, at most they will create a few meteorite craters, not enough to trigger an extinction disaster."
"At this time, if you want to obtain astatine-339 element as soon as possible, you need to rely on Jask's power; I will set off for the United States, and you will continue to debug the machine here."
"Jask will use his power to capture astatine-339 for us as soon as possible, and then I will bring astatine-339 back... the time travel plan can be officially launched."
The next day.
United States, Space-T Third Launch Base.
It was noon in Dragon Country time, but in the United States, it was pitch-black dawn. But this dawn should be the most lively dawn in American history.
The city was packed with people, everyone looked up at the sky, hoping that this distant comet, which had been waited for 157 years, would finally arrive! "Einstein was right."
On a towering viewing tower hundreds of meters high, Jask leaned against the railing, looked at the sky, and said to Lin Xian beside him:
"March 27, 2077, is indeed this date, not a day off, the space telescope captured the trace of this comet; by analyzing the spectrum, scientists found that there are some unknown substances on it, and since then, humans have started a century-long wait."
"The comet's trajectory was also quickly calculated. Its flying speed is really fast, and no celestial body it passes can capture it, and according to the path calculation, it will indeed arrive on Earth in 2234."
"It may not be accurate to say it arrives, it should be said that it hits the Earth. However, humans have long had the ability to deploy nuclear weapons in space. For such super-large meteorites and comets, it is best to directly shatter them in outer space."
"Look, at this time, you can already see the comet with the naked eye."
Following the direction Jask was pointing, Lin Xian raised his head. Indeed, it was very conspicuous.
In the southern sky, a huge and shining comet glided at high speed. Its size was indeed too huge, like a demon descending from the sky, and no one would mistake it for a shooting star.
At the tail of the comet, colorful streamers flickered, streaking across the night. "If it is not blown up, it will inevitably be a global disaster." Lin Xian said:
"It can only be said that the development of science and technology saved human civilization. But how
to say it, even without the blessing of aviation technology, this small challenge can be easily resolved for humans who have mastered rocket and missile technology."
"It's nothing more than the difference between shattering it outside the atmosphere or shattering it inside the atmosphere. Human potential is unlimited, and it will not be like the dinosaurs, who were wiped out by a meteorite."
Jask looked at his
watch:
"It's about to start, watch carefully, this can be regarded as a magnificent stroke in human history." "The forces of various countries have already discussed and rehearsed many times, and will launch a saturated attack on this comet from multiple directions and multiple angles. A total of 216 orbital nuclear weapons will be launched using satellites, space stations, rockets, and manned spacecraft." 216 pieces. Lin Xian exclaimed:
"This is definitely the largest military operation in human history, but considering that it must be foolproof, this kind of saturated strike is very necessary."
"It doesn't need to hit all of them at all. Out of these 216 orbital nuclear weapons, only a dozen or a few need to hit to be enough to blast the comet into pieces and resolve this crisis."
"Look! Lin Xian!"
Jask handed Lin Xian a telescope:
"You can vaguely see hundreds of flashes approaching that comet. Those are the projected orbital nuclear weapons. It's so spectacular... I think the only thing that can compare to this scene is the meteor shower when Kevin Walker hijacked my Starlink satellite and smashed you!"
"Hehe."
Lin Xian took the telescope and chuckled:
"It's been 200 years, Kevin Walker and Turing have been dead for 200 years, and you're still holding a grudge."
He put the telescope in front of his eyes and aimed it at the super comet in the sky that had taken away the power of heaven and earth.
Watch carefully.
Indeed, you could see hundreds of small spots of light and dozens of thin white lines, in a 360-degree, no-dead-angle, all-encompassing shape, crashing towards the comet. Finally—
All the orbital nuclear weapons converged at the center and touched the huge comet!
A violent explosion!!
In an instant, it was as if there was an extra sun in the night sky.
However, because the 216 orbital nuclear weapons exploded in space, the sound would not be transmitted to Earth; everything seemed so silent, as if playing a silent movie.
The scene seen through the telescope was very spectacular.
There was originally only one comet, but after a saturated bombing, the comet was blasted into tens of millions of pieces, and in an instant turned into a meteor shower that filled the sky, falling from the sky. "It's really shattered."
Lin Xian marveled at the tens of thousands of meteors streaking across the night sky. At this time, the original super comet had long since disappeared.
In the rain of meteorites falling like a torrential rain, the largest piece looked to be only a few tens of meters in diameter.
If this piece were to fall, it would still cause a lot of damage. It would depend on whether the interception forces arranged on the ground by various countries could further shatter it with the second step of "saturated missile interception."
"Now, it's time for my people to get busy." Jask put down the telescope and smiled slightly:
"I'm really grateful to Angelica and her descendants for running my company so well. When I was the richest man in the world 200 years ago, I wasn't this rich. The money is really endless now, and no matter how much I spend, I can't spend it all."
"I have hired all the forces I can hire like throwing money away, all over the world, and any meteorite that lands anywhere will be sent to me immediately."
""But this comet has been blasted so shattered, it is estimated that many will fall in the United States, and we are in a high-latitude area, maybe we will be very lucky to have it hit us! Hahahaha!"
Looking at Jask's hearty smile, Lin Xian took off the telescope:
"You should say less, I already have PTSD about jinxes."
Facts proved that
Jask was indeed a jinx.
Several small meteorites did fall near the Space-T Third Launch Base
in the wilderness, and Jask's subordinates immediately began to collect them and conduct radiation testing. After confirming that they were safe, they were sent to Jask's laboratory.
"Sure enough, there is astatine-339."
Jask looked at the analysis on the big screen and exclaimed: "It's so amazing. Galileo's question back then was indeed correct. This is an isotope that does not belong to Earth or this universe at all. It's hard to imagine how wonderful the outer universe is." "It's the same, Jask." Lin Xian shook his head:
"We think the outer universe is wonderful, but how does the outer universe feel when it looks at us? In the end, perhaps it is because of the difference in physical constants that there is such a big difference between each universe."
"Can you separate the elemental form of astatine-339? I'll take it back to the East Sea and start the time machine."
Jask nodded:
"There is no difficulty at all. This element is so stable that it will not react with any substance, so it can be separated by physical methods, even with tweezers."
An hour later.
Lin Xian took off on Jask's private plane and flew to the East Sea of Dragon Country, landing directly at Rhine University's internal airport, bringing the hard-won astatine-339 element back to the laboratory.
Liu Feng looked at the extraterrestrial object in the test tube and sighed:
"Is this it... We have waited for it for more than 200 years, and finally got it." Gao Wen had already begun to study various instruments:
"Well, this element is too stable. This astatine-339 isotope is impossible to realize in the atomic structure of our universe, it will definitely collapse instantly and decay into other stable elements."
"However, it is precisely this characteristic that makes it an excellent calibration point for the time machine's calibration module!"
He turned his head and looked at Liu Feng with starry eyes:
"Professor Liu, you are so amazing, you actually had the foresight to design a module that uses this element for calibration hundreds of years ago. You are truly the greatest genius in human history!"
"To tell you the truth, Professor Liu, before I met you, my favorite scientist was Professor Xu Yun, and I have been chasing his footsteps all my life, taking him as my life goal." "But now, I am really impressed by you! You are an even greater genius than Professor Xu Yun! The history and future of the world, time and space, and mankind will be changed because of you! I will work hard with price as my life goal! Learn from you!"
"No no no no no no."
Liu Feng turned around in a panic and bowed to Gao Wen: "Professor Gao, you are the idol I have been chasing all my life!" "Enough!" Lin Xian hurriedly stopped him:
"Aren't you tired of playing? You are both middle-aged people in your 40s, can you be more stable? Go and prepare the time machine, where is my [Otter Skin Jumpsuit]?" "It's here."
Gao Yang walked over carrying a handbag:
"Didn't you say that in order to integrate into the environment, you want to make the jumpsuit more casual and everyday?"
Lin Xian nodded:
"The jumpsuits I saw before were all black tights. This kind of clothing is okay for women to wear, but it's too strange for a big man like me to wear. I will definitely be caught as a pervert when I get to 1952." "So, how is my suit? Did you make it into a loose style according to my requirements?"
"No problem, don't worry."
Gao Yang took out the otter skin clothes from the handbag and praised:
"And you see, the color matching is also very casual. The upper body is a white otter skin short sleeve, and the lower body is black otter skin long pants. With this outfit, you can wear it from 1950 to 2950 and it won't be outdated... In the end, isn't the man's wardrobe just these two things?" Huh?
Liu Feng turned his head curiously:
"White otter skin? Are there white species of otters? I've never heard of that." Gao Yang smiled:
"Albino otter, there are only a few in the world. I went abroad to buy it some time ago. The old foreigners from the Otter Protection Association said they were going to break my legs."
"Joke! I am the dignified captain of the Rhine University Security Brigade, can I be scared by him? Do you really think that the 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals under my command are just freeloaders?" Gao Yang was indeed not bragging.
Don't underestimate the position of captain of the Rhine University Security Brigade. The key is not the security captain, but the Rhine University.
The security captain of an ordinary community can manage a dozen people at most
, but Gao Yang has more than 100,000 people under his command. The Rhine University, which covers an area as large as half of Donghai City, has a security force that is clearly at the level of an army. Lin Xian unfolded the jumpsuit.
The quality was very good, the sewing thread was made of otter tendons, which was very tough, and it was very comfortable to wear.
Lin Xian took a shower, put on the white short-sleeved + black long-trousered otter suit, and returned to the laboratory.
He glanced at the three people present: "Are you ready?" Liu Feng and Gao Yang nodded: "Everything is ready, we are waiting for you."
Gao Wen held a space-time clip and clamped the entangled space-time particles out of the small refrigerator and put them into the time machine. Then he started the positioning module and started operating on the screen. Liu Feng pulled Lin Xian to a chair to sit down and said earnestly: "Lin Xian, before time travel, there are three things that must be clarified and explained to you again."
"You say."
Liu Feng stretched out a index finger and said solemnly: "[First, even if the space-time elasticity allowed by the entangled space-time particles is very large, you must not do anything that affects the direction of space-time or changes the trajectory of the world line. After all, you have to travel back after completing the task. If the world line changes, you will not be able to return.]"
Lin Xian nodded: "I understand this."
This was indeed the most important thing to pay attention to.
According to his observation, entangled space-time particles could indeed do whatever they wanted. But the price of this was that if you accidentally broke the space-time elasticity with your own behavior, and the world line jumped to another world line.
Then he would never be able to return to this space-time, this era, or this timeline.
He would be like a kite with a broken string, lost in a brand new world line, helpless and without a destination. This was a very serious consequence.
Not only would the plan to consume space-time particles be in vain; it would also be a waste of all previous efforts and make all sacrifices come to naught.
If he could not bring information and intelligence back to the present, and continue to work hard with Liu Feng, Gao Yang, Gao Wen and others to save the world... then it would be a complete loss, with no hope. "Don't worry, I know the consequences of changing the world line better than anyone." Lin Xian said:
"So, when I get to 1952, I will definitely be a law-abiding citizen, and I will definitely not kill anyone, nor will I reveal any information to key historical figures."
"I will honestly play the role of an observer, an NPC, a camera.
My main purpose is to obtain information and intelligence, and then use this intelligence... to complete the breakout plan in our current era."
"I will definitely come back, you just wait for me here." Subsequently.
Liu Feng raised his second finger: "[Second, although we know that entangled space-time particles can allow travelers to return, we have no idea how to execute it or what the mechanism is... including whether there is a time limit, there is no experimental data at all. Therefore, you must hurry up to complete the task, and once the task is completed, do not stay in 1952 for too long, and return to the present immediately.]"
Lin Xian nodded again:
"I also have a sense of proportion about this. I am more afraid of not being able to come back than any of you... I cannot let so many people's sacrifices be in vain, and I have many promises that have not been fulfilled." "Even if the mission is fruitless, after I return to 2234, we can think of other ways; but if I am trapped in the space-time of 1952... then there will be no hope at all."
Finally.
Liu Feng raised his third finger:
"[Third, because of the existence of reverse forced avoidance, we are not worried about your safety. In theory, you will never die in 1952. But... who can guarantee it? There are so many evil things in 1952, no one knows what the space-time rules were like at that time. So, if there is any danger, return immediately. Only by living can you continue to fight and move towards victory.]"
"I will."
After listening to Liu Feng's instructions, Gao Wen also finished debugging, and Lin Xian stood up and stood behind Gao Wen.
"Lin Xian, look."
Gao Wen pointed to the display screen, a complex ball of yarn:
"Liu Feng has already told me that these large, dense, and intertwined space-time cracks are caused by the Millennium Pile driving, which is indeed shockingly violent."
"But the problem is that the range of these space-time cracks is too large, and they are all connected to each other, so we cannot control your specific travel date, nor can we know exactly on what day the millennium pile was driven."
Lin Xian looked at the messy, hundreds of space-time cracks, covering a third of the length of the 1952 time period:
"From the time segment, the space-time cracks are distributed in a large area from October 1952 to December 1952." "Does it mean that if I travel through this group of space-time cracks, I will arrive at a certain day or moment during these three months. But it is impossible to determine exactly which day or moment."
"Not only is it impossible to determine the time, but is it also impossible to determine where I will be thrown by the space-time crack?" "That's right."
Liu Feng came over from behind:
"Because these space-time cracks are chaotic and overlap and connect to each other, like a maze
, no one knows where you will come out of it. Well, to be precise, space-time cracks know, but we don't."
"If we consider the principle of normal distribution, perhaps the millennium pile driving time should be in mid-November 1952. This requires luck." Liu Feng sighed:
"If you are lucky enough to travel to before November 1952, you will have enough time to find the millennium pile and witness the truth of this history; but if you travel to December 1952, perhaps all the events have ended, and by the time you arrive, the millennium pile has been driven and disappeared, then this trip will be in vain."
"No no no."
Lin Xian shook his head:
"It's not entirely in vain. There are three purposes for my trip to 1952—
"Millennium Pile, Genius Club, Einstein."
"The best plan is to figure out all three mysteries; the worst plan is to figure out one of them, right? As long as I figure out at least one of them, after I come back, our breakout plan will have a way to go." "Okay, that's about it." He clapped his hands:
"If there are no other questions, let's prepare to set off." Gao Yang sweated and came over to hold Lin Xian: "Brother, you must come back!"
The hafnium alloy trash can v also turned its tracks and moved over, gently bumping into Lin Xian twice:
"Trash trash found trash" Lin Xian smiled slightly and looked back at everyone: "Don't worry, I will come back."
"We have this opportunity to save the world and save the future today because of the efforts and sacrifices of countless people who have come forward one after another. Now, this baton has reached our hands."
"I will not disappoint everyone, I will not disappoint everyone." After saying that,
he turned his head.
He climbed into the bucket chamber of the time machine. "Lin Xian, bon voyage."
Liu Feng said goodbye at the bucket mouth after bending over, and with a bang, closed the bucket lid.
Everything was quiet. It seemed that the air was no longer flowing.
He could only hear his own breathing and heartbeat. He knew that
this preparation time would last for half an hour. A silent half hour. A lonely half hour. A dark half hour.
But Lin Xian was not afraid, not timid, and not flustered. Behind him,
countless people gave him strength.
Xu Yun, Chu Shanhe, Tang Xin, Du Yao, Huang Que, Anqing, Yingqun, Yu Xi, Gao
Yang, Liu Feng, Gao Wen, Angelica, Jask, Xu Yiyi, Zheng Xiangyue, Li
Cheng, Li Ningning, Big Face Cat, Azhuang, Erzhu Zi, Sanpang... He will succeed. He wants to save Chu Anqing,
he wants to find out the truth hidden by Einstein, he wants to save the future of mankind, stop the white light of destruction,
he wants to come back and take a good look at
his precious daughter, whom he has only met once and hugged once, and what words she will leave him.
Knock knock knock.
There were three knocks outside the cabin.
This was a prompt that everything was ready and the time machine was about to be started. Lin Xian closed his eyes. A few deep breaths.
Clenching his teeth.
Feeling the entire shuttle cabin vibrating non-stop and faster. He suddenly opened his eyes!
All that came into view were streams of blue and red light: "Come on!!!"
Boom—
A violent explosion rushed straight into his head, and Lin Xian felt a singularity explode in his mind.
The scattered matter solidified into a fireball, rotating rapidly at an unobservable speed.
The sun rose from the other side of the earth, and a black ape stood wobbly on two feet on the ground.
A corroded and dilapidated bone was picked up from the ground and thrown at another group of howling apes. Before the rotating bone landed, it stretched and turned into a sharp spear, stabbing into the chest of a soldier in armor.
The sprayed blood mist turned into thick steam in the blink of an eye and rushed to the sky, and the roar of the steam engine led a freight train to the distance.
The endless rails turned into a trail of smoke, and a jet plane at the front
split the sky in half.
The shattered sky turned into a vast ocean, burying Lin Xian thousands of meters deep in the seabed. He felt a burst of suffocation, but his thinking was clear and enlightening.
His subconscious and perspective desperately floated upwards, trying to break out of the water and breathe the air on the ground.
In the rapidly rising blue seawater, every microorganism was as clear as a specimen, and a huge white whale and a deep-sea giant squid wrestled into a ball, with flesh and blood flying.
His thoughts soared out of the sea with a whoosh, and he came to a piece of yellow land, which was crowded with giant animals from various eras, mammoths, dinosaurs, giraffes...
They were densely packed together, covering the earth, stretching from the sun all the way to the other side of the horizon.
In the gaps and under the bellies of the giant animals, saber-toothed tigers, apes, lizards, crocodilians, turtles, cattle and sheep were driven to run.
Looking down, black water flowed on the ground.
It was not real running water, but countless trilobites and ants, and other various types of insects gathered into a land ocean. Suddenly, a darkness struck.
In the sky, countless, hundreds of billions of flying creatures, large and small wings covered the sun, pitch black, turned into the black background of the universe, swept over!
Everything suddenly compressed, just like the reverse rewind of the Big Bang, everything returned to the infinitely small white singularity again! Boom
The last dazzling white light.
Everything was quiet.
The field of vision returned to darkness, and Lin Xian felt his body regain control, his bare feet standing on the cold paved road. Around him was the hustle and bustle of the city.
The sound of people, English conversations, car horns, and vendors shouting. Lin Xian breathed the almost suffocating air and slowly opened his eyes... He took a deep breath, looking at the street scene around him, which was like a movie from the last century. Old and chaotic telephone poles, mottled buildings showing brick walls,
iron stairs hanging outside the buildings, fruit stands full of goods, a little girl with curly hair wearing a white dress, a clumsy old car swaying,
beautifully dressed and shiny-haired gentlemen sitting in chairs, ragged black people squatting at their feet to shine their shoes,
young people with tired faces, hoping to find work, sitting on the side of the road with dull eyes, looking at themselves vigilantly and curiously, and then continuing to be in a daze. "This is" Lin Xian blinked: "Abroad?"
Obviously, this was abroad. Judging from the clothes of the people and the architectural decorations on the street, it should be 1952, full of a heavy and simple sense of the last century. The time was right. But where was this? Which country?
Which city?
"Newspaper! Newspaper! Buy today's newspaper!"
Behind him, a little black boy was carrying a huge backpack full of neat newspapers, shouting loudly in English to attract
attention.
The little boy ran very fast, turning and jumping to get people to buy a paper. At this time, a gentleman in glasses and a black top hat stopped the little black boy and handed him
a coin.
"Thank you, sir!"
The little black boy grinned, showing his white teeth, pulled out a newspaper from behind and handed it to the gentleman, and then bent over and began to rummage for change in his wallet. Lin Xian squinted his eyes, seized the opportunity, and slipped behind the little black boy. He quietly pulled out a newspaper. Then he turned around and looked at the headline of the layout—
《The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, October 28, 1952 Issue》
Although it was all in English, Lin Xian was very good at English, and he could easily understand it.
"Brooklyn?"
He opened his eyes wide and took a deep breath: "This is Brooklyn, New York in the United States? 1" No.
Brooklyn was far from being that simple.
The painting "Sad Einstein" was painted here; Ji Xinshui's most missed friend in her youth was buried here; more importantly...
.
's birthplace, her hometown, was in Brooklyn!
"Hey!"
Suddenly, a very familiar girl's voice came from behind. Lin Xian turned around abruptly. "Hehe, stealing is not right~"
Behind him, sitting on a roadside railing, was a smiling young girl.
The girl had long dark brown hair, slightly curly, tied in a fluffy ponytail behind her head with a rubber band; her beautiful eyes smiled into two curved crescents, and a tear mole at the corner of her left eye was the finishing touch, and her pure and lovely face was white and flawless. She pointed at the stolen newspaper in Lin Xian's hand. He smiled slightly.
Two small dimples appeared faintly on the corners of her mouth: "I saw it all~"
