Chapter Twenty-Six: Schrödinger's Cat

"It's strange, Sister Xuexi, don't you usually go online? But even if you don't go online, it won't be blocked to this extent, right? Did you travel from another parallel dimension? Li Xinran also noticed that Lin Xuexi was a little wrong.

Hearing the word "crossing", Lin Xuexi suddenly became alert, "Oh, I don't have a mobile phone or computer, and I don't watch radio and television, so it's normal for the news to be blocked, right?" ”

"By the way, Xiaoxi, how the hell did you get caught by those people? What about your parents? Lifus asked, feigning nothingness.

"Hmm...... My parents died a long time ago, and I was with two friends, and then I ran out of food, and then I listened to the radio of the fairy country, and I wanted to try my luck, and they caught me. Lin Xuexi shamefully lied again.

But you just said that you never listen to the radio, Li Xinran felt that there was a loophole in Lin Xuexi's words, and just wanted to ask a question, but was stopped by Li Fusi shaking his head with a look in his eyes.

"And how did you get there? Don't you see any ground transportation in Sanctuary Bay? Lifus continued.

"Ah, we're walking." Lin Xuexi said in a hurry, but after saying that, she regretted it, in such a harsh climate today, no one can reach Immortal Bay on foot, it seems that she really has no talent for lying.

"Alright, you can get some rest." Li Fusi said to Lin Xuexi.

Then he glanced at Li Xinran, and the two ran to the table with their backs to Lin Xuexi and began to whisper.

"It's over, they must be suspicious, what should they do?" Lin Xuexi thought dejectedly, but she couldn't do anything now, just like before the crossing, her fate was completely up to her own discretion, and the feeling of powerlessness filled her, and she still didn't have the ability to refuse and resist the judgment of others.

"What the hell is she hiding?" Li Xinran asked quietly.

Lifus motioned to her not to be in a hurry, "The answer may be revealed soon." ”

He turned on the computer, typed the word "Lin Xuexi" into the search engine of the browser, and then pressed enter, and tens of billions of search results appeared on the page, more than 80 million pages.

Li Fusi found the top link and clicked in, which is the life profile of Lin Xuexi, the world's most popular singer in the 21st century, and all the links with the same name and surname as the singer Lin Xuexi were intelligently blocked after clicking in.

Lin Xuexi, born in 2028, Chinese nationality, was a member of the SSG group, the world's greatest singer in the 21st century, one of the founders of Fermi Technology, and the founder and honorary chairman of the Euclid Charity Foundation.

Lin Xuexi's creation and diversity of music and singing can be said to be both unprecedented and unprecedented, at least for now.

Her natural voice, coupled with her superb singing skills and skillful singing skills, allows her to easily control a variety of genres, and her works can always organically blend ornamentation and musicality.

Lin Xuexi's achievements and influence in the field of Chinese songs are not inferior to Teresa Teng and Jay Chou, and the musicality and creativity of English songs are comparable to Michael Jackson and U2, and the lyrics skills are directly after Fang Wenshan and Li Zongsheng, known as "Li Qingzhao of the Department of Philosophy".

She was a world-renowned superstar and a world-renowned philanthropist, and invested in research projects that seemed inconspicuous at the time, even if the labs were not owned by Fermi.

The following is a table of records of the dates and places of Lin Xuexi's concerts held around the world, and then a table of the time and sales of Lin Xuexi's albums, then a table of the time and place of various awards she has won, and finally a table of the specific times and places of the schools and laboratories she has invested in, all of which are recorded in detail.

Looking down further, Li Xinran couldn't help but exclaim, it was a lot of photos of Lin Xuexi participating in various activities and photos back then, but the amorous girl in the computer was exactly the same as the girl lying on her bed now, the only difference was that Lin Xuexi's right eye in front of her was pasted with bloody gauze, and she looked very haggard.

Li Xinran was speechless in shock, and she hurriedly looked at Li Fusi, hoping to find an answer from him.

Lifus smiled and motioned for her to continue, then he pulled the page to the bottom and circled his finger on the computer screen.

Li Xinran focused her eyes on that circle, where it was written in a relatively bold font: Lin Xuexi participated in Fermi's "crossing" program in 2050 AD, and on the day she officially participated in the experiment, fans all over the world held a grand send-off party for her, and her singing career came to an abrupt end, but it was not over, maybe in a thousand years later, the world can hear this beautiful girl full of legends in her life to show her singing voice.

Li Xinran's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief, such a magical event actually happened to her.

Lifus opened the link to a song in Lin Xuexi's catalog, which was the song "Light Year", and clicked to play.

The touching melody echoed in the small room, and Lin Xuexi knew that her identity could not be concealed just by hearing the prelude, and she began to rush to find the next excuse.

"I listen to this song in general, it's not so bad, the words are written well, barely passing, it's just that this rhyme is too deliberate, right? What else is 'Li Qingzhao of the Department of Philosophy', I think it's 'Hypocrisy Department He Zhu', the last work I have seen that rhymes so much is "Liuzhou Song Head", this Lin Xuexi can't be a rapper, right? Lifus wantonly teased Lin Xuexi, deliberately amplifying his voice so that Lin Xuexi could hear it.

"I think it's okay, but it's not as exaggerated as written, these entries may have been edited by her fans, and it's normal to have a little moisture, which is light, if she were my idol, I would be able to praise her as a Taishang Laojun." Li Xinran agreed.

"Actually, the song is good, but it's a pity that it's made up by the computer, I think Lin Xuexi is a bit of a snake, if even the lyrics are written by the computer, maybe it's a good song, this Lin Xuexi is still a bit of a waste, you say, right? Xiaoshio? Lifus turned to Lin Xuexi and said.

"I'm sorry!" Lin Xuexi is really embarrassed now, the lie she just told was exposed in a blink of an eye, she covered her face with her hands again, she really wanted to find a crack in the ground to drill down.

Lifus walked up to her and said softly: "Actually, you don't need to apologize, we can all understand, you came from more than five hundred years ago with longing, only to find that the world has long since become unrecognizable, and you have experienced such terrible things, there is nothing wrong with trying to protect yourself, just some innocuous white lies, it doesn't matter, besides, you have at least one thing that you have not lied, you did walk to Hidevage Bay." ”

"How can you be sure?" Li Xinran asked.

"The base of this 'crossing' plan has always been a mystery, the Chinese are very good at secrecy, but in fact, if you think about it carefully, you will find that this plan requires a lot of liquid helium and electricity, as we all know, Fermi built the world-famous 'Discovery' super particle collider in Aksai Chin, which has the world's largest liquid helium cooling cycle system to cool superconducting materials and vacuum pipes, and the world's largest particle reaction generator set. With the shrewdness and thrift of the Chinese, will there be another underground base that costs the people and money? ”

Lifus paused for a moment and continued, "So, I think the 'traversal' base should be next to the 'exploration' base, or the two bases simply coincide, and the exit of the 'traversal' base may not be far from Immortal Bay, so they can reach it on foot. ”

"How? My guess was correct, right? Lifus asked Lin Xuexi almost ostentatiously, wanting to show himself in front of her.

"Well, exactly." Lin Xuexi had to be impressed by Li Fusi, this person was too terrible, try not to be his enemy. "The exit is right there in the White Mudflat, but now there's no going back, the exit is closed, and it requires a high level of clearance to open it."

Lifus only guessed Lin Xuexi's vehicle wrong, but no one could have thought that Fermi had invented and built a gravitational shuttle underground, as well as a large number of advanced weapons.

"Those two people must have crossed over with you, right?" Livers remembered the two human heads under the snowdrift.

"Well, one is a friend I just met, and the other is my assistant." Thinking of Horod and Wen Xiu, Lin Xuexi's heart sank straight down like lead, and she might never be able to pass this hurdle.

"Let's mourn and change, in today's world, human life is like a mustard, and it is not easy to live." Li Fusi comforted Lin Xuexi, and wanted to quickly change the topic, lest she fall into this negative emotion again.

"It is said on the Internet that you are preparing a thousand-year travel plan, but why did you come out in more than 500 years?"

"The main energy supply system of the 'crossing' and 'exploration' bases was damaged by force majeure, and the three of us were unfrozen ahead of schedule." Lin Xuexi had to hide something.

"Force majeure? Will a megaproject of this caliber still be damaged by force majeure? Li Xinran thought it was ridiculous.

"It was an earthquake, the epicenter was on a ridgeline in the Karakoram Mountains, it was very violent, all the underground cables that carried energy were cut off, and in the face of the forces of nature, even the largest projects of human beings were vulnerable." It seems that the matter of repairing the underground cable is not taken care of for the time being, and I hope that the backup energy will not fail, Lin Xuexi thought to herself.

"Wait, you said in the Karakoram?" Lifus hurriedly turned around to get his laptop, found instant satellite images of the Aksai Chin area, crouched down so that Lin Xuexi could easily see the screen, pointed to a place in the picture and asked, "Is this it?" ”

The images sent back by the satellite were full of gray cloud-like material, which was a dirty cloud formed by radiation dust trapped in the high altitude, and it was difficult to see what was on the ground, and it took Lin Xuexi a long time to confirm that it was the earthquake that had occurred here.

"I can only vaguely identify the location of the earthquake based on the base computer, but this is the only area that has experienced a violent earthquake recently."

"I caused the earthquake." Lifus frowned and said, "At that time, the planes of the League remotely located the cave where I was, and then fired a large number of missiles, I think it may be that the explosion of the missile* bombs caused the underground cavity to collapse, or it was just in time for the frequent movement of the earth's crustal plates, which caused a man-made earthquake. ”

In fact, Lifus now thinks that the earthquake is likely to be caused by the absorption of the Dragon and Tiger Great Dan, but he thinks that he should not say it at this time, and no one will believe it.

"In other words, you were thrown a bunch of * missiles by the people who were chasing you, but this pile of * missiles did not kill you but caused a local earthquake, and then the earthquake destroyed the main energy supply system through the base, Sister Xuexi was thawed in advance, they were tricked by the broadcast of the fairy country to go up the mountain and send a distress signal, and then the two of us drove a tractor to rescue her by mistake, is that so?"

Li Xinran said a lot in one breath, and she felt that it was simply a miracle, almost subverting her materialistic worldview.

"In this way, the two of you are really fateful." Li Xinran said with a hint of vinegar.

"Of course, this is called a meeting of thousands of miles, right, Xiaoxi?" Li Fusi wanted to pull Lin Xuexi's hand, but he didn't expect Lin Xuexi to quickly retract his hand back into the quilt, he could only laugh dryly, and withdrew his outstretched hand stupidly.

"No matter, I just want to pursue you, anyway, you can't run away if you're injured now." Lifus plucked up a lot of courage to say this, and it was not romantic at all. Then I heard Lin Xuexi say in a cold tone: "Whatever you want, I won't agree anyway." ”

Lifus was a little depressed, he had never been in love, he had always had a beautiful fantasy about love, but his self-confidence was greatly hit by the frustration of Lin Xuexi's repeated confessions, and he even began to wonder if he was a nasty guy.

In this dusty and hazy apocalyptic world, the relationship between people seems to be only suspicious and wary, love is simply an ancient luxury that only appears in dreams, and no one dares to try it easily.

People in the last days spend a lot of time every day dealing with hunger in their stomachs, and the erosion of radiation and the killing of their own kind make them panic all day long.

Humans are like Schrödinger's cats locked in an earth box, either alive or dead.
