Chapter 399 Four Options
Lin Xian didn't move.

The girl in the hibernation chamber didn't move either.

The two of them just lay there motionless, one standing and the other lying, staring at each other through the tempered glass of the hibernation cabin.

Lin Xian is very sure...

He had never seen the girl.

This was definitely the first time the two of them met.

The name Yan Qiaoqiao is very common and not that rare, so theoretically speaking, the possibility that it is just a coincidence still exists.

of course.

The premise is...

Without these eyes emitting a terrifying crystal blue light!

If there weren't these eyes staring at me like this.

Lin Xian could just pretend that nothing happened.

He doesn't really care whether this Yan Qiaoqiao is the same Yan Qiaoqiao.

but now.

Seeing those blue eyes that made him worried and try to avoid them again forced Lin Xian to think seriously about this matter.

First of all.

It can be clearly stated that

[The 17 or 18-year-old girl in the hibernation chamber must be a time traveler.]

There is no doubt about this.

Those iconic crystal blue eyes are the best proof of her identity as a time traveler. If I fake one, I'd pay ten times as much... Of course, it's better not to pay. One of these monsters is scary enough. Who can bear ten of them?

Second.

One more thing is clear -

[After careful comparison, the girl in the hibernation cabin looks completely different from the fake Yuxi, Lin Yuxi, and Yan Qiaoqiao, and there is no similarity between them.]

This is also a very intriguing point.

It’s understandable that she doesn’t look like Yan Qiaoqiao.

The simple coincidence of names can explain it.

After all, 600 years is such a long time... We can't allow only the girl from Zhao Yingjun's relative's family to be called this name, right?
This is a bit too overbearing.

It’s understandable that she doesn’t look like the fake Yu Xi.

Because the fake Yu Xi had already died in the established history, and was killed by Lin Yu Xi with his head and body separated.

Lin Xian witnessed her death with his own eyes, seeing her turn into blue stardust and disappear.

and so.

The fake Yu Xi is already dead and is completely out of consideration. Unless there is some black magic that can resurrect the dead, there is no possibility that the girl in the hibernation cabin is the fake Yu Xi.

Finally, when Lin Xian saw the blue eyes, he retreated reflexively...

he felt at the time.

The most reasonable and logical person to identify this girl in the hibernation chamber is Lin Yuxi.

Right now, in 2024.

It is highly likely that Lin Yuxi has not disappeared, and the history of her death by beheading on July 7 should not have changed.

Therefore, there is a great possibility that Lin Yuxi will remain lurking until July 2024, 7, and then when the right time and opportunity come, she will rush out from the darkness, cut her own neck in half, and complete the assassination mission.

Thinking further...

Why did she travel to the future in a hibernation capsule?
the reason is simple.

Because the future she originally came from, that is, the fourth dream, the future with Copernicus, the Space-Time Court, and the Space-Time Police Station, no longer exists.

That was the 0.0000000 world line, and now it is the 0.0000084 world line. The directions of the two world lines are completely different, so... Strictly speaking, Lin Yuxi's "home" and "hometown" have disappeared, and she can't go back to her original world at all.

Therefore, because it is impossible to "return to the future" in the originally planned way, Lin Yuxi can only use the stupid method and return to the future by sleeping in a hibernation cabin.

Why no memory notebooks or videos were left behind can also be explained.

such as……

As a space-time agent, Lin Yuxi has rules and regulations that she must abide by. She cannot disclose the secrets of the Space-Time Police Department or the Space-Time Court, or leave any relevant records.

If these overly advanced records were seen by other people, there might really be a possibility of intercepting the future, and it would also be very unsafe for Lin Yuxi herself.

It is better to have less trouble than more. She might as well not leave anything behind and enter the hibernation chamber as Yan Qiaoqiao to spend hundreds of years of hibernation safely and peacefully.

As for the memory issue...

Perhaps Lin Yuxi has a backup plan somewhere else, or perhaps she believes that after killing Lin Xian, the future will return to the original world line. In that case, she can trust the wisdom of her future colleagues when it comes to memory recovery.

This arrangement also seems appropriate and comprehensive.

This is the end.

The logic of this story is self-consistent and is the closest to reality. At the same time, it is also the first possibility that Lin Xian thought of when he saw the blue pupils.

But the problem is...

"The girl in the hibernation cabin is not Lin Yuxi!"

This is where Lin Xian feels most speechless.

I analyzed so much rationally in a flash and wrote the script for this 600-year time span...but when I saw that face for the last time, it was completely different.

As a result, all seemingly correct reasoning is wrong.

Who wouldn’t have a headache?

"No, no, there must be some place or some key clue missing."

Lin Xian continued to look at the blue-eyed girl in the hibernation cabin, stretched out his right hand and rubbed his chin, wondering what he had overlooked...

Needless to say, the problem of appearance is definitely related to the rejection of time and space.

Lin Xian had no idea what Lin Yuxi looked like, had never seen her, and couldn't guess.

But one thing is for sure.

Lin Yuxi in the state of time-space assassin is definitely not her original appearance.

First of all, the eye color. Lin Yuxi's original appearance must have black eyes, which would not glow.

The second is the appearance and facial features. Since Huang Que has become completely different from Zhao Yingjun due to the rejection of time and space, Lin Yuxi's appearance in the state of time and space assassin has naturally changed beyond recognition, without any trace of his original appearance.

"Could it be that……"

Lin Xian came up with a rather nonsensical idea:
"[Could it be that...the change in appearance caused by time-space rejection can happen a second time?]"

Let’s take an extreme example.

If the yellow bird, which has traveled through time once, travels through time again, will its appearance change again?
Similarly, if Lin Yuxi triggers space-time rejection again because the entangled space-time particles are re-energized, will her appearance also change a second time?
"It's possible, very possible."

Lin Xian began to pace in the underground hibernation base, mumbling to himself as he sorted out his thoughts:

"This assumption is bizarre and irresponsible, but not impossible."

"Otherwise... why doesn't Lin Yuxi show up in 2024? I've been shopping with Yan Qiaoqiao and having dinner with Zhao Yingjun leisurely many times, completely defenseless... but what is Lin Yuxi doing now? Why doesn't she come to assassinate me? Why does she have to wait until July 7th?"

"So, if we go back to the cause through the result, it seems that the only possibility is the one we just imagined - Lin Yuxi triggered space-time rejection again because of the re-energization of the entangled space-time particles, and her appearance changed again, becoming the girl in the hibernation cabin now."

……

Lin Xian's brain was thinking quickly.

The pace is getting faster and faster.

The circles he was going through almost made the big-faced cat next to him dizzy, and he immediately shouted:

"What are you doing, bro? Playing the role of a spinning top?"

"Hurry, hurry, stop, stop. I know you're in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry... Waking up from hibernation is a slow process in itself. It's not like you're rushing around in circles here and the girl will wake up faster."

"Look over there. Look at that Smith the Unjust. We woke him up much earlier than this little girl... but look at that Unjust now. He's still twisting his head like a fool. His body control abilities haven't recovered yet."

"So, don't worry. It will take at least another 10 to 20 minutes. As for recovering to the point where you can talk and communicate normally... that will take at least a few hours."

Gao Wen, who was standing beside him, also nodded in approval:

"That's right, Lin Xian. There's no point in being anxious. This is the necessary process for the human body to slowly recover from a deep hibernation state."

"It was the same when I first woke up. At first I only had a very vague consciousness, my brain was blank, but my vision, feeling, and hearing were completely gone."

"It took a long time for my vision and hearing to recover. The image that left the deepest impression on me was the big-faced cat with a playful smile lying on the tempered glass, shouting something."

"It will take a long time before you can start to control the movements of your limbs and body. At this time, the screen inside the hibernation chamber will test you and ask you to perform a few basic movements according to voice commands, such as the direction of your eyeballs, legs and feet, hand movements, etc."

"It's amazing. Hibernation will only cause a complete loss of memory, but most of the listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities can be retained. It just takes some time to slowly recover. Anyway, I could understand the instructions inside the hibernation chamber at the time, so I followed the language requirements, performed a few simple coordinated movements, and passed the test."

"After the test is passed, it means you are able to leave the cabin. At this time, the sealed door of the hibernation cabin will open, the liquid inside will be sucked out, and the entire top cover will be lifted up, and you can get out."

"After that, your listening, speaking, reading and writing skills will slowly recover. It will take several hours. I didn't lie to you about this... There's no point in being anxious."

Lin Xian listened to the two people's description and waved his hand:

"I'm not in a hurry now. She's waking up slowly. I'm not in a hurry. I just... have some questions that I can't figure out."

He raised his wrist and looked at his watch.

Time display:

00:12
This timing is awkward.

According to Big Face Cat and Gawain, it would take the girl half an hour to sit up from the hibernation chamber, not to mention the time it would take to recover her ability to speak.

It seems that the exploration progress of today's first dream can only go so far.

If I fall asleep earlier tomorrow and wake up the girl earlier, maybe I can get more clues.

only……

Lin Xian still couldn't figure it out.

Who is this girl? What is her condition?
My mind is very confused.

Based on the existing intelligence clues, it is impossible to infer the correct answer.

What should we do at this time?
Lin Xian stopped pacing.

I closed my eyes and thought for a while...

Slowly open your eyes:

"【Method of elimination.】"

The big-faced cat blinked, not understanding what Lin Xian was thinking:
"Process of elimination? What nonsense are you talking about in your sleep?"

"Process of elimination..."

This was the first time Gao Wen heard this word. He frowned and thought for a while:
"It sounds like a way to solve a problem. Isn't it that... when you have no idea how to solve a problem, you should first list all the possibilities, and then eliminate them one by one. As long as you can eliminate all the wrong answers, no matter how outrageous the remaining answer is... it is likely to be correct."

"Is that so, Lin Xian?"

……

He is indeed a great man who single-handedly developed the hibernation chamber filling fluid, the theory of time-space shuttle, and seems to have some useful information in this space-time.

Gao Wen, who had completely lost his memory, clearly heard the term "process of elimination" for the first time, but in the blink of an eye, he understood the scientific thinking method represented by this term.

Very clever indeed.

can only say……

Emperor Gawain is worthy of being Emperor Gawain.

"You're right."

Lin Xian nodded, agreeing with Gao Wen's conjecture:
"The forward step of solving a problem is, of course, to reason based on the existing clues and finally come up with the only answer."

"But this method is not suitable for all puzzles. Sometimes the clues are confusing, true and false are hard to distinguish, and the puzzles are complicated. In this case, don't think about relying on forward reasoning to find the correct answer. Instead, you should use the elimination method, which is a reverse problem-solving method..."

“Write down all the possible answers first, then eliminate them one by one. The last one with a high probability is the correct answer.”

The idea is clear.

Lin Xian came to the hibernation cabins in front and opened the lockers.

soon.

I found a notebook and a metal pencil and tried them out, and they were both still usable.

So he opened the notebook, turned to a page with no writing on it, and placed it on the tempered glass of a hibernation chamber that contained only a skeleton.

Start writing...

"The Hibernation Cabin Girl's Identity, All Possible Options"

A. This girl is a time traveler from another future. She has nothing to do with Yu Xi and Yan Qiaoqiao. The name is purely coincidental.

B. The true identity of this girl is Yan Qiaoqiao in 2024. Although she is only thirteen or fourteen years old now, she time-traveled at some point when she was seventeen or eighteen years old. Therefore, her black eyes turned blue, and she became a time traveler, and her appearance also changed.

There are two possibilities for Yan Qiaoqiao's time travel.

One possibility is to travel forward from 2024 to 2022, which would explain the blue eyes and the change in appearance.

Then, Yan Qiaoqiao, who had become a time traveler, continued to grow up, from thirteen or fourteen years old to seventeen or eighteen years old, a period of four years. In 2026, she happened to fall into a hibernation cabin and has been sleeping ever since.

Another possibility is that she traveled backward from 2024 to a certain point in the future, which could be 2224 or 2324... In short, Yan Qiaoqiao's way of traveling was different from that of the real and fake Yu Xi, and she traveled backward.

Time travel will inevitably lead to time and space rejection, and Yan Qiaoqiao's appearance and eyes will also change. Then, she fell asleep in the hibernation cabin at a certain point in time and has been sleeping until now.

Lin Xian intuitively felt that traveling from the past to the future was impossible based on the logic of time and space.

After all, the future is uncertain...

Just like now, especially during this period of time, the world line is constantly jumping and the future world is constantly changing.

If we really want to travel from the past to the future, how do we anchor the destination?
This is a completely different concept from traveling back to the past from the future.

simply put.

No matter what point in time you stand at, looking back at the past history...these established histories are fixed, unique, unchangeable, and determined.

Just like Lin Xian is standing in 2024 now, looking back at the Qin, Han, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, it is a single and fixed timeline that cannot be changed.

At the same time, just like he is now standing in the year 2624 and looking back at the past 600 years of history, it is actually single, definite and unchangeable.

Because this world line is fixed, it is 0.0000084.

If Lin Xian changes history and rewrites the future in 2024, then the future world will indeed change, but what will change is not the world line 0.0000084, but a jump to a world line with other numerical values... The original world line 0.0000084 has not changed at all. It can be said that it has disappeared, or it can be said that it has jumped away.

therefore.

Lin Xian believed that traveling from the past to the future was impossible in terms of time and space logic. However...he was now solving the problem using the process of elimination.

Therefore, write down all the possibilities that can be written down; what if in the end, all other possibilities are ruled out and only this last one is left... then wouldn't you be a clown?
after that.

Lin Xian continued to write option C.

C. The true identity of this girl is Lin Yuxi. Whether it is due to the recharging of entangled space-time particles or some other reason... In short, Lin Yuxi has undergone a secondary space-time rejection, and her appearance has changed again, turning into the appearance of the girl in the hibernation cabin.

According to the information Angelica had previously revealed to her, she would be beheaded on July 7.

Considering that Lin Yuxi is still alive, there is a high probability that he is on the 0.0000084 world line and still cannot escape the fate of being beheaded.

This is a later story, and it is not difficult to determine.

I can find a chance to ask Turing from the Grizzly Tribe or the Porcupine Tribe.

As for why Lin Yuxi used Yan Qiaoqiao's name...if this option is the correct answer, it is also something worth pondering.

Let’s put this aside for now.

Lin Xian started spinning the pen.

In addition to these three options...

Are there any other options?
Anyway, we are now using the process of elimination, so no matter how outrageous the options are, you can write them down first, and it will not affect the final judgment result.

"We have to come up with four options anyway..."

The harm of Longguo's education has caused most students to develop an obsession that multiple-choice questions must have four options, and they always feel that multiple-choice questions with three options are not what they want.

The pen at Lin Xian's fingertips turned faster and faster.

Just think of another option D to make up the number.

It's just to make up the numbers anyway.

Think wildly, think randomly, and think boldly.

He raised his head.

Look over there at the hibernation cabin where the girl is.

Her crystal blue eyes were still staring at him as if locked.

Then on the locker below, the nameplate with Yan Qiaoqiao's name on it reflected the cold light of the white woven lamp.

Lin Xian's mind suddenly opened up and he started brainstorming.

I didn't even think about it and just wrote down the nonsensical option D.

D. Yan Qiaoqiao is Lin Yuxi, they are the same person. The reason why Lin Yuxi became Yan Qiaoqiao is because the entangled space-time particles were destroyed... Then, um... Then I don't know what happened, the entangled space-time particles recovered their energy, and Yan Qiaoqiao's space-time characteristics were restored again, so she became Lin Yuxi again... It's just that space-time rejection is random, so the appearance of the second rejection must be different from the first time.

squeak------

suddenly.

There was a sound of electric machinery rising from the right.

Lin Xian raised his head and looked over there.

I saw...

The lid of Smith the Unjust's hibernation cabin slowly rose...

The huge outer shell with tempered glass and the internal display screen was lifted up, allowing Smith, who had been isolated from the world for a long time, to return.

At this moment, the foreign-looking man was sitting up with a confused look on his face.

Scratching his head.

Look around.

Stunned, not knowing what was happening.

You can tell what he wants to say and express.

But it seemed that the relevant brain functions had not recovered yet, and he was at a loss for a moment.

"Let's go! Go to work!"

A slave worker nearby grabbed Smith the Unjust's arm and dragged him out.

The big villain staggered and almost fell.

But people are born with the ability to adapt and balance, and he was forced to learn to walk and run by conditioned reflex... and was dragged out barefoot.

I believe that with his blank mind, he will soon accept the identity of a slave worker and devote himself to this deep pit excavation project.

Lin Xian closed his notebook and walked towards Big Face Cat and Gao Wen.

Pointing to the hibernation cabin where the girl was:
"Since Smith's hibernation chamber has been opened, will this girl's be opened soon?"

"Will she be late a little longer?"

Big-faced cat recalled memories:

"I woke her up from hibernation a little later than Smith the Unjust, but it will probably be soon."

"It's just that Gawain the Unlucky One also said that everyone's physique is different, and the hibernation chamber will not be opened until you have answered the questions and confirmed them... What if some people are slower in answering the questions?"

next to.

Gao Wen frowned and looked at the big-faced cat:
"I'm not a foreigner, you don't need to call me with this strange combination of names, I-"

Bang! ! ! ! ! !

suddenly.

There was a loud bang.

Directly interrupted Gao Wen's speech.

The three of them turned around in shock and looked at the hibernation cabin where the girl was next to them...

See!

The hibernation capsule that was intact just now was kicked into a shocking big hole by a slender calf wearing a hibernation tights!

No.

That big hole wasn't kicked out.

The entire piece of tempered glass covering it was kicked away.

Lin Xian suddenly raised his head and looked upwards.

really!

A piece of tempered glass that was covered with cracks and wrinkled into a spider web-like state smashed straight into the ceiling, and was flattened like a piece of rag by the huge kinetic energy, and then... it fell freely down.

"run!"

Lin Xian shouted.

He dragged Gao Wen and Big Face Cat to hide aside.

Crackling, crackling, crackling...

A whole piece of tempered glass fell directly from the ceiling and hit in front of where the three people had just stood.

Fortunately, the quality of the tempered glass is very good, with three layers of laminated glass, so even under such violent demolition, it did not break into pieces and remained a complete piece.

It seems.

The safety factor and construction standards of the hibernation cabin are indeed very high, and the quality of each component is excellent.

But Lin Xian, Big Face Cat and Gao Wen had no intention of caring about tempered glass.

The three of them all focused their attention on the hibernation chamber whose top was kicked open...

Because the hibernation chamber was opened violently, the filling fluid inside could not be pumped out in time.

As a result, the evaporated white mist overflowed quickly, just like the final appearance of the BOSS in a stage play... The thick white mist created a mysterious and terrifying atmosphere.

Swish.

A soft sound.

The long-haired girl slowly sat up from the hibernation cabin, her slim yet slender figure looming in the white mist.

She supported herself with one hand on the upper shell of the hibernation chamber, which no longer had any glass, and jumped out with a flip.

Keep your feet firmly on the ground.

Stand straight.

now……

Gawain and Big Face Cat turned pale and were shocked.

Both of them have seen and experienced the process of awakening from the hibernation chamber.

Just like Smith Big Unscrupulous’s performance just now, it takes some time to recover the body’s coordination, balance, and muscle strength.

But, this girl!
He just woke up, but he is so strong and agile!
They don't look like ordinary humans at all!

"Help...help!"

Seeing the blue eyes shining and gradually walking out of the white mist, the big-faced cat was so frightened that his hair stood on end and he shouted:
"There's a ghost! Run!"

Say it.

He was in a panic and ran away, not forgetting to turn back and urge Lin Xian and Gao Wen:
"Run! Why are you still standing there? Are you looking for death? Aaah!"

The big-faced cat, which had just run a short distance, let out another scream of being whipped.

Lin Xian looked over there.

As luck would have it, a supervisor in uniform, with a gun on his waist and a steel whip in his hand, came over, cursing:
"What are you yelling about? You're the only one yelling all day long!"

"Ahh! Ahhh! Ahhh!"

After the supervisor finished scolding, he whipped Big Face Cat three times in a row, causing Big Face Cat to call for an ambulance.

Finished.

The supervisor bared his teeth, glared, and dragged his steel whip across the ground, making a hissing sound, as he walked towards Lin Xian and Gao Wen.

There was a thick white fog over there in the hibernation chamber, and everyone could see that something was wrong there.

"WTF!"

The supervisor spat, raised the whip high, and hit him hard.

result……

Bang.

There was a muffled sound.

The steel whip as thick as a thumb was actually tightly grasped by a delicate hand and could not move.

Catch the steel whip with bare hands?
The supervisor was stunned!
But there was no time to react. The girl pulled hard, and her white and tender palm and the steel whip sank into the white mist again. The supervisor staggered due to the strong traction and fell into the white mist.

But he has been in the Mountain Cat Tribe, fighting with outside tribes for so long that his body's instinctive reactions have long been trained.

So the supervisor immediately let go of the steel whip, steadied himself, and reached for the pistol at his waist with his right hand.

But at this time...

The blue-eyed girl in the white fog also rushed out of the fog with the wind, turned her head, and saw the hafnium alloy nameplate on the side of the intact hibernation cabin next to her.

Rectangular, flat, sharp and strong.

So he put his hands on the hibernation cabin and tore it apart with all his strength.

Oh!

A heart-wrenching sound of steel tearing!
The sharp hafnium alloy nameplate was torn off and held in the hands of the blue-eyed girl!
That cool nameplate.

at this time.

It looks like a sword, but also like the deadly scythe of the god of death.

The twisted cold light of the white woven lamp above her head was reflected on the blade nameplate, accompanied by the girl's crystal blue pupils, waving, drawing a chilling half moon in the air!
The overseer who had just raised his pistol widened his eyes.

He didn't realize what was happening yet.

I didn't even have time to see it all clearly.

I feel like I've grown taller.

The viewing angle has become higher,

At the same time, the world is tilted,

The five senses and limbs are out of control,

Oh.

original……

His head was cut off, and his body was separated from his head. The blood pressure from his heart gushed out from his neck, blowing his head into the air.

Spin.

Landing.

thump.

There was a muffled sound.

The supervisor's head was covered in blood. It rolled a few times and finally rolled to the feet of Lin Xian and Gao Wen.

Gawain's face turned pale.

But Lin Xian remained unmoved.

The blue-eyed girl looked left and right, holding the blade nameplate stained with bright red and dripping with blood in her hand, and walked towards Lin Xian step by step, tapping the floor with her toes:

"Where is this?"

Her crystal blue eyes stared at Lin Xian:

"Who am I?"

boom! ! ! ! !
boom! ! ! ! !
boom! ! ! ! !
At 00:42 the white light arrived as promised, burning everything in the world.

……

……

……

In a corner of the bedroom, Lin Xian opened his eyes.
