Three-Body: I ​​have a small universe

Dream world.

Wade woke up from the bed, walked out barefoot, washed as usual, put on his clothes and shoes, and walked out of the room.

The perspective moves as he moves.

People were coming and going in the spacious and bright corridor. People of all skin colors and hair colors were walking back and forth in pairs, chatting and laughing.

Various messages were whispered in the air.

Wade turned his head and looked out the huge aviation window, which showed a gorgeous space scene. However, he was already numb to it!

Because he has seen it countless times.

That's right! This place is high in space. Humanity's greatest masterpiece, the crystallization of technology, Star Ring City! This is his scientific research city.

He has gone through this cycle thousands of times.

But in the end, I couldn't find the answer.

He was tired of this world and didn't want to waste any more time here, because everything here was meaningless.

It was meaningless for him to find the answer.

After standing in front of the glass for a while, Vader walked away and took his own space car to the highest scientific research base.

This is the place with the highest security level in Star Ring City, where hundreds of thousands of humanity's top scientists live.

It is also one of his important efforts.

Wade walked into the research base and soon arrived at the core project area. A researcher in a white coat noticed his arrival and came up to him, "Boss, you're here."

"Well, how's the engine project going? Any breakthroughs?"

Vader asked as a matter of routine.

God knows how many times he has asked this question.

Hearing this question from his boss, the researcher was extremely embarrassed. He became paralyzed and couldn't utter a word for a long time.

Fortunately, Chief Engineer Dr. Ding Yi showed up and saved him: "Boss, why make things difficult for him? You know the progress of the experiment, we're missing something..."

"What?" Wade looked at Dr. Ding Yi impatiently, as if he was fed up with him always using such words to brush him off.

"It's... in short, it's a very crucial thing!"

Dr. Ding Yi felt incredibly uncomfortable, as if his brain stem was missing. This was truly unbecoming of his fame.

"I knew it! I shouldn't have expected that from you!"

Vader lowered his head and said in disappointment.

"How can we possibly achieve that here?" Wade shook his head, muttered, and left without looking back.

'Perhaps, it's time to end this fake thing!'

Vader thought to himself.

He ignored Ding Yi who was chasing him and his surprise at his behavior and left. Ding Yi caught up with him and tried to hold him back, but he didn't expect his hand to penetrate Wade!

Wade, this is actually... a holographic projection?

Otherwise, how can we explain the current phenomenon? Could it be that he has become a ghost? This is too weird!

Ignoring the noisy and chaotic situation behind him.

Wade walked straight ahead, even passing through walls and humans as if they were nothing. Then, the environment changed.

He came to a place!

...

It was a small clearing in the middle of a huge wheat field.

A refined, thin young man was waiting for his arrival with a smile. Wade took steady steps and approached him step by step.

"Yun Tianming, long time no see, I'm here to see you again!"

Wade said to Yun Tianming with a smile.

Yun Tianming also smiled back, nodded and said to him: "Long time no see, I have been waiting for you, Thomas Wade."

After exchanging pleasantries, the two sat down on the futon, facing each other across a low table with two steaming cups of tea on it.

Wade said, "I think it's time for me to leave this world! Yun Tianming, thank you so much for letting me go through this! To be honest, this is an extremely valuable experience for me..."

Yun Tianming listened to Wade's speech with a confused look on his face.

He tilted his head and looked at Wade, as if to say, "Brother Wade, are you drunk? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Yun Tianming: "Brother Wade..."

"Don't talk yet!" Wade raised his hand to stop Yun Tianming, "Let me finish what I'm saying! After all, I'm leaving here soon! Just consider this as my final farewell?"

Yun Tianming calmed down.

Wade continued, "Actually, the negotiations didn't fail, did they? I guess your negotiations with the Trisolarans were successful!"

"Instead of the world's trajectory, where I destroyed a sophon, and then humans fought a decisive battle with the ETO and the omnic army, ultimately successfully destroying the last sophon on Earth..."

"Afterwards, humanity actively prepared for war, and technology entered a period of rapid development. They successfully left Earth and built space cities, and civilization flourished unprecedentedly..."

"This is all too idealistic! It's like living in a false dream where everything can come true as long as you want it!"

"But, none of it is true!"

After saying this, Wade fell into silence for several minutes. A sarcastic smile appeared on his face, as if he was mocking the crudeness of the world, or mocking his own fantasy.

"Actually, I knew it during my first reincarnation! This world is fake! It's all fake!"

"However, I still keep reincarnating and repeating in this false world, because I want to study something and find the answer."

"But the truth is cruel, I didn't find it!"

"You have no idea how happy I was when the researchers first told me that the warp engine research was successful."

"But when I took their report, I knew I was wrong! You know..." Wade's face showed a complicated expression like constipation, "That report is like a kindergarten kid's graffiti!"

"What's ridiculous is that the researcher didn't think there was anything wrong with this! Using their method to build a warp drive... is like listening to the dog next door talk about how to govern the country. It's absurd and ridiculous."

"So?" Yun Tianming looked at Wade without any change on his face, as if he was listening to Wade telling a very ordinary story.

"where are you going?"

"I want to return to reality!" Wade answered firmly, "Perhaps I should have left when I first realized something was wrong!"

"It's futile to stay here."

"Nothing is real. No matter how happy or perfect it is, it is just a sweet prison..."

After Wade finished speaking, he picked up the teacup in front of him and drank it in one gulp.

Then he stood up, turned around and walked away, his figure gradually becoming transparent until it finally disappeared. His farewell words remained: "Goodbye, Yun Tianming!"

"Goodbye, Vader."

Yun Tianming replied.
