Starting as a Wallfacer, his defection to the Three-Body Problem shocked the world.

Cheng Xin did not choose to seek out Wade's theory.

She knew that doing so would be pointless.

She knew Wade all too well; he was a demon, a madman who would stop at nothing.

To achieve his plan, Wade revealed his ruthlessness without hesitation, choosing to do anything that would hinder him from completing his mission or help him achieve his goal.

As an intelligence agent, Wade was competent, even excellent, but as a human being, Cheng Xin felt that he lacked any of the good qualities that belong to a human being.

Vadim's funeral was held hastily. PIA only acknowledged his work ethic, but apart from Cheng Xin, no other PIA member participated in the funeral.

Seeing Vadim's wife and daughters crying their eyes out, Cheng Xin felt as if something had stabbed her heart. She suddenly felt suffocated and her breathing became increasingly difficult.

Finally, everything went black, and she collapsed to the ground.

When Cheng Xin woke up again, she was already lying in a hospital bed. According to the doctor's diagnosis, Cheng Xin's body had been overworked for many days due to long-term work fatigue.

Her body's protective mechanisms caused her to briefly go into shock.

It's not a big problem. He just needs some glucose infusion and a short rest.

But only Cheng Xin herself knew what she was thinking at that moment.

The Staircase Project was designed by himself. In order to complete the Staircase Project, Vad killed Vadim, so he was actually one of the murderers!

It was his own plan that indirectly led to the death of his colleague!

After a brief shock, she looked terrified!

"We must find a suitable candidate for the Ladder Project as soon as possible, otherwise, Wade will continue to kill."

The Ladder Project only sacrificed one person, but if Wade continues like this, many more will die.

Wade is a crazy guy; Cheng Xin hadn't considered that before, which was an oversight on her part.

How could that man allow his plans to be put on hold for something so trivial?

He is Thomas Wade, a being so ruthless as to launch a human brain at the Trisolaran fleet!

If there isn't a suitable person, then create one; this is Wade's consistent approach.

If he cannot find a successor soon, Vad's killing spree will not stop. Who knows who this madman will kill next? As long as he deems someone suitable, his fate will be the same as Vadim's.

She even felt that Wade was doing this on purpose to show her, to threaten her and force her to make a choice as soon as possible.

Cheng Xin felt a splitting headache, and in the end, the decision on who would be selected for the Ladder Project fell into her hands.

After resting in the hospital for a few days, Cheng Xin flew back to New York.

She submitted a sick leave application to Yu Weimin, saying that she needed to rest for a few days and would not be returning to PIA for the time being.

In reality, she was just avoiding seeing Wade; she simply couldn't accept the fact that Wade had killed Vadim.

During her vacation, one of Cheng Xin's former classmates happened to be in New York and invited her to dinner.

To alleviate the grief caused by Vadim's death, Cheng Xin agreed to the other party's suggestion and kept her appointment with her old classmate on time.

She hadn't seen her classmates for a long time, and the meeting went very well. More importantly, Cheng Xin learned a crucial piece of information!

Yun Tianming has lung cancer and is about to die!

When Cheng Xin heard the news, her heart was filled with a mixture of joy and sorrow.

Fortunately, she finally found the most suitable person for the Ladder Project, so that Wade would no longer harm others.

Tragically, this reclusive boy will eventually leave this beautiful world.

Although Vadim's death was brought forward in the original storyline to before Cheng Xin met her old classmate due to Lin Xuan's actions, the general direction of the plot remained unchanged. Cheng Xin still submitted Yun Tianming as a candidate to the PDC for participation in Project Ladder.

At the same time, she will personally travel to China as a representative of PIA to talk to her old classmate.

……

Inside the Third Base of the Red Coast.

Yun Tianming's symptoms have become increasingly pronounced over the past two months.

Several times, after building the model, Yun Tianming coughed so hard that he almost coughed his lungs out.

PDC doctors conducted a detailed assessment of Yun Tianming's condition and concluded that current medical methods were ineffective in treating him, and he could only be kept alive for a maximum of less than three months.

Even in his serious illness, Yun Tianming still insisted on completing his model building work every day.

For no other reason than that, after fully understanding the mission this machine would undertake in the future, Yun Tianming devoted the last part of his life to the Super Dream Project.

"Cheng Xin, you were once like a sun that warmed my heart. Now, it's time for me to do something for you. I hope your future will always be peaceful, and that you will no longer suffer from the Trisolaran crisis!"

In the end, Yun Tianming still managed to build Cheng Xin's model in the Super Dream World. This was the first human model he had successfully built besides Wang Miao.

He built it very slowly, taking more than a day!

Unlike when he created Wang Miao, the Cheng Xin he created was almost identical to the girl in real life.

She possesses her own independent consciousness and emotions, while also inheriting Cheng Xin's compassionate heart.

Looking at his masterpiece, Yun Tianming let out a long breath.

"I hope you are well. If one day, Project Mewtwo really achieves coverage of all mankind, then this will be my second most sincere gift to you."

Yun Tianming has been secretly in love with Cheng Xin for many years, but even in the world of Super Dream, he still doesn't dare to be with Cheng Xin.

She is so wonderful. Just being bathed in her light is enough to make me feel warm. To ask for anything more would be a bit greedy.

But Yun Tianming was unaware that the sun he admired, which illuminated his entire world, was currently traveling thousands of miles by plane to China to take his life!

After working continuously for three months, the basic database for the Super Dream World has been completed.

All the models previously proposed by Wang Miao have been completed.

Yun Tianming even used his imagination to give the database some things that do not exist in the real world.

It was only then that Wang Miao had to admire Yun Tianming's imagination, but he admired Lin Xuan's ability to pick people even more; this guy was simply a genius!

There aren't many people at the Red Coast Base, but Lin Xuan can make the most of each one. Among the five Wallfacers, Lin Xuan's leadership is definitely the strongest.

But Yun Tianming was also reaching his limit; he knew that his life was about to come to an end.

Crisis Era 4, April.

After saying goodbye to all the staff at the Red Coast Third Base, Yun Tianming was finally sent back to the ward where he had come from.

Dr. Zhang, Yun Tianming's attending physician, couldn't help but smile when he saw Yun Tianming again after he had disappeared for several months.

Where's Old Li?

Old Li was the old man who had been in the bed next to Yun Tianming's. He was still there before heading to the Red Coast Base, but when Yun Tianming returned, there was only an empty white bed next to him.

"He chose euthanasia and ended his life."

Dr. Zhang uttered the coldest sentence in the calmest tone.

Euthanasia was only passed this year, allowing people to choose to end their own lives voluntarily.

The process involves administering a large dose of barbiturates intravenously to induce a state of drowsiness, followed by a muscle relaxant that will temporarily stop your breathing, and finally potassium chloride to cause your heart to stop tachycardia.

The entire euthanasia process will not exceed twenty seconds, and the person undergoing euthanasia will not experience any pain!

Dr. Zhang picked up an euthanasia agreement from the table next to him and handed it to Yun Tianming.

Is it my sister?

Looking at Dr. Zhang's face, Yun Tianming suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of familiarity...

He remembered that this was his sister's friend, and he had met her a long time ago.

"She hopes you can leave this world peacefully."

There wasn't a trace of emotion in Dr. Zhang's tone; it was as if he were simply stating a fact.

"Ah……"

Yun Tianming let out a cold laugh. He already knew that his sister didn't want him to live. Every day he lived, his father would have to send him more money for his treatment.

That money was meant for her sister's wedding and house purchase. In her sister's opinion, it was not worth leaving this money to Yun Tianming, who was about to die. So, it might be a good thing for everyone if Yun Tianming could die sooner.

"Row."

There was no struggle, no anger, no resistance.

Yun Tianming signed an agreement to consent to euthanasia.

He gave up on this messed-up world.

Having accomplished nothing but failure in his more than twenty years of life, it's time for it to end, carrying with him the memory of Cheng Xin.

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of Lin Xuan. When he met her at the Shanghai Aerospace Research Institute, Lin Xuan said that she would let him meet Cheng Xin in the real world.

Moreover, it was Cheng Xin who took the initiative to come to him.

In the end, he never saw Cheng Xin even once before he died.

It was just something to comfort me, as expected.

Yun Tianming thought to himself...

Yun Tianming's euthanasia was scheduled to take place three hours after he signed the consent form.

His own sister couldn't wait for him to die.

Even if Yun Tianming lives for just one more day, the exorbitant hospital fees will consume his sister's wedding expenses, affecting their future life.

He had already guessed that after he died, he might not even have a grave.

A cemetery? The living don't even have a place to live, why would they spend money to buy graves for the dead?

His sister would definitely say the same thing.

Soon, euthanasia began to be performed.

"Are you sure you want to end your life? If yes, please press 3."

"3."

This is a necessary procedure in the euthanasia process. The machine will ask questions several times, and the answer will be different each time. This is to prevent the patient from accidentally touching the machine unconsciously.

"Are you sure you want to end your life? If yes, please press 1."

"1."

Yun Tianming closed his eyes, feeling the tingling sensation in his arm—the feeling of a syringe piercing his skin.

Now, all I need to do is press that last button, and my life will end.

"Are you sure you want to end your life? If yes, please press 5."

Just as Yun Tianming's finger was about to press the last button, a sudden commotion broke out outside.

Yun Tianming opened his eyes and saw a group of people rushing in from outside. A doctor ran over like lightning and instantly disconnected the power to the syringe.

"Thank goodness, the injection hasn't started yet!"

At this moment, Yun Tianming's gaze was drawn to a person standing at the door.

Cheng Xin!

Lin Xuan wasn't lying to herself; Cheng Xin really did come looking for her!

She came to save me!

"Shock level from Yun Tianming +85!"

Yun Tianming had forgotten how long it had been since he last saw Cheng Xin.

One year? Ten years? Or a century?

His consciousness gradually blurred, and before he completely lost consciousness, he saw Cheng Xin walk to his side.

"Tianming, do you know? Euthanasia was passed for you!"
