Did the world end today?

Chapter 59 The Lyre Project

Chapter 59 The Lyre Project
Shortly after talking with Bai Mo, she sent over the clues she had compiled.

Lin Xu looked at it carefully, but soon realized that there wasn't much of substance in it.

In fact, most of it is her description of that "flat" or "sliced" world.

It was filled with a lot of dreamlike content. If Lin Xu hadn't accepted and understood the concept of "high-dimensional space" beforehand, he probably would have thought that Bai Mo's spirit was a bit problematic.

This is also normal.

After all, Bai Mo wasn't like me, who entered the future world through a bracelet and could rely on his own will to find different clues.

However, this also gave Lin Xu a new idea.

He always thought the bracelet was a "simulator" that could simulate the real future, allowing him to repeatedly try and fail and repeatedly acquire information.

But is it possible that this is a "timeline convergence point"?
Is it possible that this is an anchor point that would allow me to travel stably in high-dimensional space?
Currently, this possibility seems quite high.

Lin Xu carefully examined the bracelet on his hand, and as he gently stroked it, the number "3" appeared on it.

My energy has been restored, and I can now embark on another adventure in another world.

However, we should wait until we get home to discuss this further.

He glanced at the time; it was only five in the afternoon.

Why don't you just quit your job?

Holy crap, I'm on a flexible clock-in/out schedule anyway, what kind of work am I supposed to do!

In this situation, even if I just go back and take a nap, I'll still earn more than if I sit in the office!

Thinking of this, he decisively packed up his computer and phone and prepared to leave. Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

"Please come in."

Lin Xu reluctantly sat back down.

The door was pushed open, and Lin Xu looked up to see Jiang Xingye.

"Why are you here?"

"Mr. Lin."

Jiang Xingye closed the door, and his tone changed instantly.

"Are you okay?"

"It's okay, what can happen to me?"

Lin Xu shrugged, giving a casual reply.

"I heard you came back in an unlicensed taxi. What's going on? Are you being watched by the authorities?"

"What's the problem? Is it related to Xu Jin?"

"They won't arrest you, will they?"

Jiang Xingye's concern was genuine; she was truly worried that she had gotten into some trouble or gotten into some kind of trouble.

Lin Xu coughed and immediately made up a lie.

"It's a historical issue from the Donghua Chemical Fiber Factory. I'm not in charge there now, so they came to me."

"It's just an inquiry, nothing serious."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Jiang Xingye visibly breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face.

"So where are you planning to go now? Have you packed your bag?"

".go home."

Lin Xu said, somewhat embarrassed:

"I want to go home and rest, I'm tired."

"Alright, alright, there really is a thick barrier between us now."

Jiang Xingye rolled his eyes.

"Then you go ahead, I still have to go to work."

As she was about to leave, Lin Xu called out to her.

"You wait a moment."

"Why don't you go home after get off work too? I'll take you out to eat."

"Trying to take advantage of me?"

Jiang Xingye raised an eyebrow.

"Mr. Lin, this isn't appropriate, there are so many people watching."

Are you going or not?

Jiang Xingye put on a pitiful look and said:
"Go, how can I not go?"

"I'll do whatever you ask, Mr. Lin. Please have pity on Hoshino."

There's a camera above your head.

Lin Xu pointed to the ceiling, and Jiang Xingye jumped up and looked up in the direction Lin Xu was pointing, only to find that there was nothing there at all.

"Scared me?"

Jiang Xingye glared angrily at Lin Xu.

"You're the one who's stupid! Installing a camera in the director's private office, how could you even think of that?"

"Let's go pack our things, grab a bite to eat, and then we can go home after get off work."

"okay!"

Jiang Xingye cheerfully pushed open the door and left, while Lin Xu had already called a car and was waiting for her downstairs at the office.

As the car drove towards the apartment, Jiang Xingye suddenly asked:
"What exactly is the situation with Bai Mo?"

"How could a simple conversation about university cause such a rift in her life?"

When the question was asked, Lin Xu was also unsure how to answer it.

Could he tell Jiang Xingye that Bai Mo had entered a higher-dimensional space, and that he himself had also entered one?
Will she believe it?
-
and many more.

Whether she believes it or not, I think I should try to be honest with her.

After all, Jiang Xingye is undoubtedly an important figure related to the Planetary Reincarnation Organization, and Planetary Reincarnation is an important clue to the apocalypse.

Now, everyone involved in the apocalypse has acquired certain information or, in other words, their own motives.

Only Jiang Xingye, like a black box, remained completely sealed off.

I need to find a way to open this black box myself.

At the very least, we should try to open a crack first.

Thinking of this, Lin Xu spoke up:
"She believes she has had some kind of supernatural experience." "She feels she has entered higher dimensions, and the answers to higher dimensions are in space."

"To be precise, it's on Mars."

"That's why she wanted to go to Mars."

"I talked to her about this topic, and as we talked, she just broke down."

Mars?! A higher dimension?!

Jiang Xingye was dumbfounded.

"real or fake??"

You believe that too??

Lin Xu looked into Jiang Xingye's eyes and slowly nodded, saying:

“I think what she said is very credible.”

"Of course, I'm not saying she's completely right, but perhaps she did have a somewhat unusual experience."

I don't understand.

Jiang Xingye shrugged, while Lin Xu continued to ask:
"You don't believe me? Didn't you say before that you were going to Mars?"

"Then why do you want to go to Mars?"

"I?"

Jiang Xingye was stunned for a moment.

"I just think going to Mars sounds interesting, but I definitely won't go by myself. I'd have to go with someone I like."

"Growing crops on Mars—the Chinese version of The Little Prince, how about that, romantic, right?"

"What kind of ultimate love-obsessed person are you??"

Lin Xu was dumbfounded.

No, she ended up on Mars for such an absurd reason, right?

He went to Mars, and she went with him?

What about divorce?

How did she become an ex-wife?
Lin Xu's gaze flickered as he looked at Jiang Xingye.

He really couldn't understand what the girl in front of him was thinking.

Jiang Xingye ignored him, rolled her eyes, sighed, and said:

"Saying we'd go to Mars to fall in love was just a joke."

"Don't even mention going to Mars to fall in love; in fact, even the idea of going to Mars is just a joke."

"We haven't even sorted things out on Earth yet, and you want to go to Mars?"

"If I really have to go, it must be because there's some reason that I absolutely have to go."

"For example, they might be short of a flight control engineer or something."

"so."

Lin Xu nodded thoughtfully.

不得不去
It seems the only answer to this question can be found in the world of fitness trackers.

Tonight, we found Bai Mo 20 years in the future.

Perhaps she will have the answer.

The car had arrived at its destination, and Lin Xu led Jiang Xingye out of the car.

The two walked into the hot pot restaurant side by side.

However, it seems neither of them noticed.

Compared to the last time they came here, the distance between them was much shorter.
Meanwhile, in Guizhou, at the FAST (Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope) observation station.

The gray-haired scholar held the latest report in his hand, while his bespectacled assistant beside him was giving a brief presentation.

"The last unusual celestial phenomenon lasted too short a time."

“We have mobilized almost all available equipment for observation, but the results are unclear and not currently reliable.”

"The only thing that can be confirmed is that anomalous gravitational waves have indeed been detected between Mars and Earth."

"The Tianqin satellite has read the corresponding gravitational wave data, but since Tianqin-2 and Tianqin-3 have not yet completed networking with Tianqin-1, we cannot determine the specific location of the wave source at the moment."

“Currently, we have colleagues trying to establish collaborations with the LIGO gravitational wave observatories in the United States and Virgo in Europe to see if they have more detailed data.”

"However, we shouldn't have too high hopes."

"The intensity of this gravitational wave was too low and the duration too short, so it will most likely be diluted by clutter."

"Well, something's better than nothing, I guess."

"really."

After speaking, the scholar let out a slow sigh.

"It's better than nothing."

"The most important thing now is to expedite the completion of the Tianqin project's network."

"This project has been stalled for a long time due to cost considerations."

"We need to think of a way to produce a new budget report and reduce costs."

“Especially in terms of structural materials, which are now the bulk of variable costs.”

"Is there a cheaper solution?"

"We have to go, no matter what."
