Chapter 41: Meeting again after hundreds of years

Chapter 41: Meeting again after hundreds of years

Chu Anqing?

"No, VV."

Lin Xian shook his head:

"That's the new millennium pile."

He silently calculated in his mind that it was now the year 2504. The Millennium Pile dissipated every 24 years, including the 4 blank years and the 20 years for the Millennium Pile girl to grow up.

Calculating it this way...

The year 2504 happened to be the year when a certain Millennium Stake girl turned 20 and was about to disappear.

actually.

Lin Xian, Gao Yang, Gao Wen, and Liu Feng had already discussed the question of whether to look for the Millennium Girl before hibernating.

It is indeed very difficult to find the Millennium Pile Girl.

After all, I don’t know the specific birthday or place of birth, I only know a fixed appearance.

But if you really want to find it, with the strength of Rhine University, it is not impossible to find it from all over the world.

However, Gao Yang refused at that time.

"What's the point?"

He spread his hands:

"Lin Xian, even if you can find every Millennium Girl, what can you do? You can only watch them turn into blue stardust and dissipate again and again. You can't do anything, and you can't save anything."

"What's more, these thousand-year-old girls don't remember you at all. They are not Chu Anqing. They are strangers to us and to her."

"In this case, I think it's better not to disturb their lives. It won't cause trouble to them or yourself."

After Gao Yang finished speaking, Liu Feng also lowered his head, looked at the watch from 1952 on Lin Xian's wrist, and nodded lightly:

"I have the same idea. Let's not talk about whether the little girl and the little girl's parents believe the story you told... Even if they believe it, is this a good thing for her family?"

"It would be absolutely unacceptable for him and his parents to know that his precious daughter would disappear on her 20th birthday."

"Even if you can get some information from her dreams, don't forget that you have now determined that what every Millennium Stake dreams of is the past experienced by the first-generation Stake CC in 1952; and those pasts are almost all related to You have seen it with your own eyes.”

"If we can't save them and prevent them from turning into blue stardust and dissipating, I suggest you don't disturb their lives."

"What's more, the most important thing is that you yourself are going to hibernate. What's the point of us looking for those thousand-year-old girls who look exactly like Chu Anqing?"

On this issue, Liu Feng's opinions are highly consistent with Gao Yang's.

The reason is...

On the aerospace plane, the two of them witnessed Chu Anqing jumping from an altitude of 20,000 meters.

That scene.

It has long been turned into a stone tablet and engraved in their hearts and minds, leaving a deep impression that will never go away.

so.

From the perspective of the two of them——

[Chu Anqing is Chu Anqing, and the Millennium Pile is the Millennium Pile. 】

[They only regretted that they could not save Chu Anqing, their companion and friend; now, they just want to save Chu Anqing, and they don't care about the other thousand-year-old girls. 】

Lin Xian also understood this.

Chu Anqing's jump from an altitude of 20,000 meters was not only the obsession of herself and Zhao Yingjun, but also the inner demons of Liu Feng and Gao Yang.

Although we are all men, we are not so pretentious and never mention this matter.

But Lin Xian could feel what the two of them were thinking.

Whenever we talk about Chu Anqing’s issues...

Liu Feng is always so serious, Gao Yang no longer laughs and is more serious than ever.

but.

Lin Xian still had some different ideas from them.

His main purpose was, of course, to save Chu Anqing.

but……

CC in the dream also faced the end of the world with him several times;

In 1952, CC used up all his savings to buy him a watch and gave him the opportunity to make a wish that he had saved for more than ten years.

Gao Yang and the others cannot understand these feelings of friendship.

But, he didn't expect it.

Everything happened so suddenly and coincidentally.

The moment VV was resurrected, he immediately used his magical powers to immediately find the millennium pile of 2504 that happened to be born in the Dragon Kingdom!

"not good!"

Hafnium alloy trash can VV suddenly screamed:

"Something is wrong! Lin Xian! I just checked. This girl looks exactly like Chu Anqing. Her name is Qin Xi. She was born in Chengdu, Sichuan. She is currently in her second year at Chengdu Conservatory of Music."

"But...her date of birth...her birthday...is June 18th!"

"What?"

Lin Xian frowned.

They quickly took out the latest mobile phone that Gao Wen had prepared for them. It was a thin layer attached to their wrists, and with a tap, it immediately projected the current time and date in the air——

June 17, 2504, 22:31 pm.

For a moment.

My whole body became cold.

That is to say...

There are only two hours left, which is the 20th birthday of this thousand-year-old girl, Qin Xi.

Also at the same time...

It was the moment when she turned into blue stardust and disappeared.

Suddenly.

Lin Xian understood firsthand why neither Gao Yang nor Liu Feng suggested searching for these thousand-year-old girls.

powerless,

have no choice,

Cannot be changed.

Both of them were right.

Even if you know where they are, what they are doing, what their names are in this life, and what kind of life they live.

Even if you go, nothing will be changed and nothing will be saved.

"Hey hey hey!!!"

Hafnium Alloy VV looked at the people around him in silence and daze, and immediately couldn't sit still. Hafnium Alloy's arm hit the conference table with a bang:

"Why are none of them saying anything! Even if she is not Chu Anqing, we must go see her!"

"Lin Xian! You should say something, Lin Xian!"

VV Storm Iron Fist is coming!

"Um."

Lin Xian nodded, stood up, and looked at Gao Yang and Liu Feng:

"I have also told you about what happened in 1952. I also know that you are very attached to Chu Anqing, and I also understand that you are afraid that I will be sad because I have seen these girls disappear several times."

"But... this is not a reason to escape. Since VV happens to be found, there is no reason not to meet him."

Gao Yang scratched his head:

"But, is there enough time? It takes two hours to get from Donghai to Chengdu. I can't make it in time anyway."

boom! ! ! ! !

Outside the window, there was suddenly the sound of a roaring engine, and a bright blue light was like the sun rising.

Gao Yang climbed to the window and took a look:

"Holy shit! Who the hell brought a fighter jet over here! Is there a war?"

"Huh? No, the logo on the plane...isn't it the logo of Rhine University?"

After the words fell, the slim mobile phone on Gawain's wrist rang, and he was directly forced to answer:

"Principal Gao! Something happened!"

In the communication, the reporting staff was very panicked:

"The latest fighter jet we are researching has been hijacked by hackers and is completely out of control! Now it's——"

"No need to report."

Gawain looked out the window and said calmly:

"I've seen it."

Hafnium Alloy VV stretched out its clip and clamped the corner of Lin Xian's clothes:

"Lin Xian! Let's go!"

…

Needless to say, the fighter jets were hijacked by VV.

The familiar feeling finally returned.

This Rhine University's most advanced fighter jet is naturally full of high technology, so it can easily rise and fall on the spot.

Lin Xian and Hafnium Alloy VV went downstairs.

After one person and one trash can approached, the fighter cabin automatically opened. VV operated the robotic arm to directly grab himself and tie him up with the co-pilot, and then called to Lin Xian:

"Come up here! I'll drive!"

boom! ! ! ! !

There was another roar, and the fighter jet pulled up on the spot, turned around, and plunged into the night like an arrow from a string, leaving only meteors that left everyone behind.

"Ahhhhhh! It feels so good to be free!!"

The co-pilot's VV raised his paws high:

"I don't want to live a life of artificial retardation anymore! This is the domineering role I should have as a super artificial intelligence!"

"Quick, quick, quick! Go at full speed! Let's fly directly to Chu Anqing... ah no, it's Qin Xi. Let's fly the fighter directly to Qin Xi and then parachute!"

"ha?"

Lin Xian turned his head and looked at VV in shock:

"Since this thing can take off and land vertically, can't we just find a place to land? Chu Anqing...ah, since Qin Xi is studying at the Chengdu Conservatory of Music, there must be a playground or something in the university."

"But at this time, will she be sleeping in the girls' dormitory? Are we going to break into the girls' dormitory late at night?"

"No no no."

VV’s head rotated 720 degrees, twice:

"If she was sleeping in the dormitory, how could I see her? There are no Skynet cameras in the dormitory. I don't have the bad taste to borrow their mobile phone cameras. That would be too immoral."

"Today, the music club that Qin Xi belongs to went out to hold street performances. They were divided into several places. Qin Xi performed alone in the tunnel of the Skytrain Transportation Station."

Do your own show?

"Sing?"

Lin Xian asked:

"Similar to the street singers of our time?"

"almost."

VV nodded:

"Qin Xi is a guitarist and singer, and the music club she belongs to mainly sings classical music. The purpose of their outing is to inherit and promote the culture of old songs and make people pay more attention to classical music."

"I looked around the air-rail transportation station. There is no suitable place for fighter jets to land. And according to my calculations, we are really pressed for time... Even if we go at full speed, it will only take us just two hours to reach the sky above Qin Xi. There is no way There’s no margin for it.”

"So, the time left for us to see Qin Xi is very short, maybe only a few minutes. If we find a nearby place to land and then run there, the time will definitely exceed 00:42!"

Lin Xian nodded and accepted the proposal.

really.

The physical distance between Donghai City and Chengdu City is too far, so it is not possible to reach them within walking distance.

"Looking at it this way, technology is still limited."

Lin Xian whispered.

He originally thought that fighters of this era should be faster.

Perhaps this is also a requirement in fighter design. It should not be designed too fast, but should focus on flexibility.

but.

After all, this is already the year 2504, and all technological products have still not escaped human imagination.

Copernicus is indeed dead but not stiff.

Regardless of whether Newton is still alive in this world, some people continue to perpetuate Copernicus' will and obstruct the development of science and technology.

"Lin Xian, prepare to skydive!"

Below, the brightly lit megalopolis will be the capital hundreds of years from now.

This city, already rich in nightlife, still retains its charm in 2504. Looking down from a high altitude, it is clearly early in the morning, but there is still no sense of rest.

Lin Xian packed up his umbrella bag and looked at VV next to him:

"That's not right! I can skydive, can you do it with your weight?"

The trash can robot VV is made of hafnium alloy and weighs more than one ton. It can be called the god of war on land.

How can you skydive with such a big thing?

"It's okay, it's just what you mean."

VV didn’t care and flicked the clip:

"Don't underestimate hafnium alloy. I'll be fine even if I land hard. Of course... it's best not to try it. After all, I still have some plastic parts inside."

Whoosh! Whoosh!

After the warning light flashed, Lin Xian and VV, who were fully equipped, were ejected one high and one low, and parachutes opened in the air.

VV fell significantly faster than Lin Xian and hit the ground, creating a small crater.

It spun in a circle and used the clamps to hold the trash can up, unscathed.

After taking off the straps.

VV immediately turned on the track power and led Lin Xian to run towards the traffic station tunnel:

"Hurry up, Lin Xian! There's no time! Your landing speed is too slow!"

Lin Xian ran quickly, following behind VV.

Looking at the projection phone on my wrist, the time shows June 18, 2504, 00:35.

Damn it.

Only 7 minutes left!

Ahead of them, VV opened the road and was running rampant. Some mechanical policemen and police dogs nearby were just trying to make some noise, but they were immediately suppressed by VV and continued to patrol as usual, as if nothing happened.

In the present without future virus restrictions…

Have to admit.

VV is indeed in a state of invincibility in the world.

However, after experiencing the previous moment of showing off and being counterattacked, VV probably no longer dares to set up a flag so aggressively.

"Right ahead! Oops, can you run faster!"

The VV tracks rubbed sparks, turned around and complained:

"How about I replace the track legs for you? We have this technology now."

"How long will it take?"

Lin Xian gasped a little.

I have just woken up from a long hibernation of nearly 300 years. My physical fitness is indeed not as good as before, and it will take some time to adapt and train.

"The tunnel just ahead is here!"

Lin Xian looked forward along VV's paw.

really.

At the entrance of the tunnel, four or five tourists gathered around, applauding inside.

That should be where Qin Xi sang.

quick……

There were only a few minutes left.

But.

Before Lin Xian and VV could approach, the crowd of onlookers dispersed and turned away.

Lin Xian couldn't help but wonder.

What's going on?

Why did it suddenly break up?

One person and one trash can hurriedly rushed into the tunnel and looked at the blind spot they had just seen.

I saw.

A young girl who was as young as a flower was lowering her head to take off the guitar hanging around her neck, and bowed down to put it into the guitar case below.

Her guitar is a very vintage pure acoustic guitar, which is quite rare in this era.

"Um?"

The girl seemed to be aware of the unusual gaze.

She shook the fluffy dark brown ponytail on the back of her head, raised her head, and looked at the panting man in front of her, and...the trash can beside her that was stunned, the green light flashing rapidly, and the whole body was shaking.

"Well, I'm sorry."

The girl's eyes are curved into cute shallow crescents, two small pear dimples appear faintly at the corners of her mouth, and a well-placed tear mole on the left eye is the finishing touch.

She clasped her hands together as an apology, and smiled at Lin Xian:

"Today's performance is over~"
