Sun Tan looks very good, although his hair is all white, and his skin has wrinkles and age spots, but the whole person is very energetic, his waist is very straight, and he looks even more upright than when he was young, and he is wearing a white burqa with a special material, which is the same as the Sun Tan that Mark saw in virtual reality, but that one is still what he looked like when he was young.

"Too excited to speak? No, we just met and separated...... Well, five minutes, that's too short compared to fifty years. The elderly Sun Tan walked up to Mark with a smile, his voice changed a lot, and he did not become weak because of old age, but was very neutral.

"That's right, it's been fifty years." Mark moved slightly and rolled out of bed.

He has learned the basic activities and run-in with the body in virtual reality, and he can move normally with just a simple adaptation, when Mark just woke up, he saw Sun Tan when he was young, because he had just woken up, his brain was not very clear, so Mark didn't realize that the endless silver mirror world and the fire moon in the sky were also like a sci-fi blockbuster, even if he knew that it was true, he would still feel a little illusory, and when he really returned to the real world, he saw the familiar people around him, Mark really felt the passage of time.

Dale also stepped forward and began to do some simple examinations on Mark, the hibernation awakening technology is very mature, but the necessary procedures are still indispensable, her texture is no different from the skin of a real person, and it is similar to what she touches in virtual reality, and even feels a little faint warmth, Mark doesn't know whether to sigh at the mastery of android technology, or whether to sigh at the supernatural virtual reality technology.

"So......" Mark touched his arm, the feeling of being able to touch his body was too long to see, but Mark didn't have time to feel nostalgic now, and fell into another problem.

"What's wrong?" Sun Tan asked.

"Is my body bionic like hers?" Mark voiced his doubts, Dale's texture and appearance are seamless, if his body is like this, if he doesn't cut him open to see, I'm afraid no one can know if this is a physical body or a bionic body.

"It's the flesh." Sun Tan's answer made Mark breathe a sigh of relief: "What, do you want a bionic body?" ”

"No, no, no, just ask, that's fine."

"This is much cheaper than the bionic body, the product of bio-grade 3D printing, but it is estimated that it will not take long, and you will soon change the bionic parts, those things are indeed very convenient, and they are much more durable than the body, cough cough cough...... Actually, I originally wanted to ask your opinion, but as soon as I added it to you, I forgot about it while chatting, and I got older, and my brain is getting worse and worse. Sun Tan smiled like a kind old man, Mark could still see his familiar outline between his eyebrows, he was still his best friend, and this would not change no matter how time passed.

"When can I be discharged from the hospital? I haven't eaten in fifty years, let's go, let's go have a big meal. Mark got up from the bed and patted him on the shoulder.

"Okay, this time I'll take you to the real vampire mansion, which has a great restaurant on it."

The following afternoon, Mark went through a lot of complicated formalities that made people collapse, the return of hibernators to society is a troublesome matter, all their former documents are invalid, and all the certificates needed to live in the new society need to be reissued from scratch, Mark walked from one department of the hibernation center to another, several procedures were reversed, the staff here are not androids, but they are more mechanical than androids, as if they can't understand human speech at all, as if they want to make you so angry that you turn around and go back to sleep for another fifty years.

But these tedious is not so bad in Mark's eyes, he is now like a newborn baby, full of interest in everything, every breath of air he breathes in makes him feel sweet, he was once trapped in the boundless darkness of the spiritual world, compared to that, the people around him are so lovely.

After running around the hibernation center for an afternoon, Mark found that it was several times larger than before, and it seems that with the development of the times, the number of hibernators has begun to increase, and the corresponding laws and regulations have become stricter and more detailed.

Fortunately, with the help of Sun Tan and several of his assistants, Mark completed the procedures in the fastest time, his iris and body information were included in the identity database, and a chip the size of a grain of rice was implanted in the palm of his hand, which was an identity credential and a signal receiver, Mark didn't have to bring anything, as long as he had this chip, he could live a normal life in society, it could be used for payment, rental, contact and call various services, almost compressing the function of the smartphone.

However, the smartphone has not been replaced, it still exists, after all, people need all kinds of bells and whistles to distract themselves at any time, the smartphone is also a chip the size of a grain of rice, but it is not injected into the palm of the hand, but directly into the lens of the human eye, it can directly hit the light signal on your retina, you will see a screen suspended in front of you, with gestures, sound, sight or brain waves can be controlled by it, The specific details need to be changed according to the user's habits. Compared to traditional smartphones, this small chip is more powerful and small, and as long as you don't lose your eyes, it won't be lost.

Of course, traditional smartphones still exist, according to Sun Tan, about two percent of the world's people still use it, most of them are old people who hijacked the era, some of them are not adapted to modern life than hibernators, if it were not for the appearance of the fire moon that made most of the land uncultivable, they would prefer to live the life of slash-and-burn thousands of years ago.

After leaving the hibernation center, Mark returned to the city in Sun Tan's car, and the scene there from a distance was the same as what Mark had seen in the virtual world, a huge silver mirror that stretched as far as the eye could see, and the moon floating on it, which I am afraid would not have been able to create such a bizarre scene by imaginative painters decades ago.

"Let's go, we haven't had two glasses in a long time, I have saved a few bottles of wine, and I have left it from when you hibernate until now, just waiting for you to drink it the day you wake up, Zizi, fifty years old." Sun Tan sat in the driver's seat, his tone was casual, as if he was dozens of years younger.

"You don't want to see me at all, you just want to drink." Mark cried and laughed: "Anyway, I always thought it was ...... When you wake up, you'll see a hovercar. ”

"How could there be such a thing, it's not scientific at all."
