Chapter 184 True and False VV
A ticket to travel to the moon?

What a ridiculous thing...

However, when Lin Xian saw the name Jask, he no longer thought it was so ridiculous.

Elon Jask.

This is a genius recognized by the whole world.

Of course, he has many other identities.

The founder of the space company Space-T, the owner of Tesla, the launcher of Starlink on Earth, and the visionary of immigration to Mars.

His remarks would have been extremely crazy and incomprehensible a dozen years ago.

But what is surprising is that now, more than a decade later, he has fulfilled most of the boasts he made back then.

Not only did he design a reusable rocket, but as a private company he also gave the world a new understanding of the space industry.

People are truly realizing that the rocket failure caused by a screw that was not tightened was pure toxic chicken soup.

In fact, in industrial structures, designers will add a lot of "design redundancy" for safety reasons. In fact, the fault tolerance rate is very high. Even if several engines accidentally go out... it will not affect the rocket's takeoff.

In 2021, Jaske sold four tickets for space travel, and in September of the same year, he sent the four tourists to an altitude of 4 kilometers, orbiting the earth dozens of times for a three-day space trip.

This trip truly made the world realize Jask's hard power. After all, before this, there were only three countries in the world that had the ability of manned aviation, and at this moment... this problem was actually solved by a private company.

Since then, Jask has also started booking tickets for immigration to Mars. Although the hype is far greater than the actual progress, now that Jask has achieved such success... who dares to easily deny his dream?
This man, known as the Iron Man of Silicon Valley, seems to be omnipotent.

And looking at this news report that Zheng Xiangyue screenshotted...

The tickets for Jask's second space trip have also been sold out, and he will take off next year. So on this basis, he has opened up the reservation of tickets for the moon trip.

Although it is currently very difficult to land humans on the moon and return successfully, it is at least much easier than traveling to and from Mars. According to Jask's estimate, this trip may be able to begin within the next few years.

The total price of the moon travel ticket is 1200 million US dollars, which is more than twice the price of space travel ticket, which is equivalent to more than 8400 million Dragon Yuan.

If you are pre-saleing now, you only need to pay a deposit of 200 million US dollars, and the remaining balance needs to be paid one year before departure.

200 million US dollars, or 1400 million yuan.

Lin Xian looked up at Zheng Xiangyue with stars in her eyes… With so much money, you can’t make that much even if you let your brother drive a taxi for 48 hours a day!

What's more, this is just an advance payment, and there is still a final payment of 7000 million.

All I can say is... Zheng Xiangyue's view on money and the world are not complete. After all, she has never been out of the hospital, and perhaps she has no concept of money at all.

"This news is actually more like a hype concept."

Lin Xian returned the phone to Zheng Xiangyue:

"You may not be familiar with Jask. The biggest pie he painted for the world was to migrate to Mars. But now it seems... the hope is still very slim."

"As for the moon trip plan, he didn't dare to specify when he would set off, which shows that he himself has no confidence in it. It is very likely that the plan will be shelved in the end."

"So, instead of trusting this unreliable person, Xiangyue, you should actively cooperate with the treatment and wait for the success of heart transplant or hibernation chamber research. In the future, we can become astronauts and go to the moon ourselves!"

Zheng Xiangyue took the phone and looked at the news screenshot on the screen with expectation. In the screenshot, Jask proudly announced the moon travel plan:
"I hope my brother can earn a boat ticket."

Looking at her eyes, Lin Xian fell silent.

Children’s thoughts are sometimes easy to understand and sometimes difficult to understand.

At least for now...

Zheng Xiangyue never gave up the idea of ​​"bury me on the moon".

She had no confidence at all that she would survive and grow up.

She, who fights the disease every day, perhaps knows this better than anyone else; so her greatest wish is for her brother Zheng Chenghe to agree to her request, earn a ticket to the moon, and then bury her ashes on the moon...

That should be it, right?
Perhaps the simple-minded Zheng Xiangyue didn't even know what ashes were, let alone how unrealistic it was to carry a corpse to the moon.

Lin Xian couldn't help but sigh.

Sometimes, it's nice not to grow up.

But people are always unable to resist the fact that they have to grow up, have to understand the impossibilities in fairy tales, and have to accept the disappointments in life.

Lin Xian finally touched Zheng Xiangyue's soft head:
"You should go back and have some rest. I will bring you gifts to celebrate your birthday."

……

back home.

It's still early.

It’s a good chance for me to fall asleep again after a long absence.

The prelude after entering the dream was really too long... Lin Xian followed the previous process and first went to the grove behind Li Cheng's house to persuade CC, then took her to join the Face Gang, and finally successfully climbed over the garbage plant wall with the help of the Face Gang's ladder, sneaked into Xindonghai City, and came to Taim Bank.

Click, click, click...

CC is still there trying the safe password.

Lin Xian didn't run around today. He had experienced too many things and obtained too much information during this period of time, and he needed to sort them out.

The daytime world was too noisy and full of dangers, making him feel insecure.

On the contrary, his dreams have now become the place where he feels most secure and can calm down and think.

"What's wrong with you?" CC suddenly raised his head and asked. "What?" Lin Xian didn't know what CC wanted to say.

"You seem to have become very silent." CC said:

"Did you encounter any difficulties?"

Along the way, Lin Xian had been chattering like a machine gun, but here he kept silent and didn't say a word, which made CC feel very confused.

In the memory fragment related to Lin Xian, this man was also talkative and not as deep as he is today.

even……

He clearly told himself that his target was also this safe.

But after going through numerous hardships and passing numerous checkpoints to arrive at the Tam Bank, Lin Xian never even looked at the safe, nor did he try any password... This really puzzled CC.

This man always gives people a mysterious feeling and is full of mysteries. He is like a gust of wind that does not belong to this world, floating around unpredictably.

"Indeed, I encountered some trouble."

If it were in reality, Lin Xian would definitely not tell anyone about his inner concerns. There is no wall that is impenetrable, and there is always a risk of exposure if things are spoken out.

But it’s different in dreams.

This place will completely restart in a few hours, everything will disappear, and no trace will be left.

"If there's anything I can do to help, you can tell me." CC said in a low voice while turning the code wheel.
"If you hadn't brought me here, I might never have touched this safe in my life. As a reward...if I can help you in any way, I will definitely not refuse."

……

Lin Xian was a little surprised to hear CC's words.

Today's CC has inexplicably become much easier to talk to, and even has a cute personality.

The reason...

Lin Xian felt that it might have something to do with the scenes he had been having with her since he entered the dream.

In the past, due to various unfamiliarities, bickering or quarreling was always unavoidable; but now Lin Xian is familiar with the plot, and he knows everything that CC is willing to tell him, and he is too lazy to ask about things that CC is unwilling to tell.

As a result, by chance, CC's favorability towards him increased significantly.

After all, from CC's perspective, Lin Xian this time was well-educated, answered every question, and had extraordinary powers. What was even more valuable was that he helped her completely selflessly, told her so much useful information free of charge, and finally sent her safely to the safe.

Don't ask for anything in return, and don't compete with yourself to try the safe combination.

Therefore, CC's attitude towards Lin Xian naturally improved a lot, and it could even be said that his trust in her was overflowing.

"I don't think you can help much." Lin Xian said, "After all, it's a matter of another world and another time and space."

"Tell me about it."

Lin Xian paused, as if talking to himself, and said casually:

"There is a group of people who killed my friends and my teacher. I don't know why they killed them, but now they seem to be targeting me and want to find an opportunity to kill me."

"So are you going to run away?" CC asked.

"I can't escape... Where can I escape to?" Lin Xian found a hafnium alloy safe and sat down, and continued:

"Besides, it's not that easy for them to kill me. It seems that they must find some evidence. And... I don't want to run away. Both the teacher and the friend are people I am close to. They both died in front of me. I can't just leave like this. I want to avenge them."

"But so far, I can't find any evidence that they killed anyone, so I can't catch them. On the contrary, they took the initiative to sneak into the police, gained control of the discourse and investigation power, and even invited me to join the case investigation team."

"Have you been there?" CC stopped turning the code wheel and looked up at Lin Xian.

"not yet."

Lin Xian shook his head:
"I'm still hesitant."

"To be honest, if I can get close to the murderers under the guise of joining the investigation team, this will be a good opportunity to obtain evidence and catch them."

"But at the same time, they also had the opportunity to get close to me. The police station has become their home ground... This is very disadvantageous and dangerous for me. Maybe I will be caught by them before I catch them, and then I will be killed."

"Are you scared?" CC stood up.

"How could I be afraid?" Lin Xian smiled.

"I'm not afraid at all. I'm just worried that because I didn't make the best choice, not only did I fail to avenge my friends, but I also got myself involved and lost everything."

……

Subsequently.

Neither CC nor Lin Xian spoke.

After dozens of seconds, CC continued to squat, turning the combination wheel, clicking, trying to open the combination lock, but he still failed...

"I'm afraid it's hard for me to give you any advice or answer to your difficult question."

CC said slowly amid the clicking sounds:
"After all, only you know how dangerous your situation is. As an outsider, no matter how much I say, it will mostly be irrelevant. However... I can tell you a story about a person."

"Who?" Lin Xian raised his head.

CC pursed his lower lips as if he had made up his mind, and raised his head to look into Lin Xian's eyes:
"VV."
