"Hurry up, where are the people in the control room? Where are they?"
A burst of noisy footsteps echoed in the empty building, and several uniformed people anxiously walked along the corridor and rushed into the control room.
Cheng Lin, on the other hand, walked quickly out of the building against the flow of people.
Then he looked back at the deep space antenna behind him that was blocking the sky and the sun.
The eyes are inexplicable and complicated.
Immediately, he stopped thinking about it and quickly ran out of the area and returned to the highway. The ghost taxi without a driver was still parked there quietly.
As if waiting for him.
Cheng Lin opened the car door and sat in the back seat. Then he heard the sound of the engine starting. Soon, the car started and quickly moved away along the road, making a circle and driving back towards the city.
As for the antenna, it quickly disappeared from Cheng Lin's sight.
"call……"
Relaxing and leaning on the seat, Cheng Lin closed his eyes and exhaled deeply.
The tasks of part 4 have been completed.
For the fifth part of the mission, he was still not given any hints.
He became invisible in the morning, took a ride to Taoyuan Airport, arrived at this prefecture-level city in the east of the entire Xia Kingdom, and then took a ghost taxi to the deep space antenna to transmit the signal.
This whole process is very different from the previous two times.
So far, the direction of civilization seems to have not changed. He has completed four missions in one go, which is nothing more than sending a radio wave into the universe.
Obviously, the real content of the deduction has yet to come.
"What I'm doing now is more like... paving the way, well, paving the way."
Cheng Lin thought in his mind.
Then, he remembered the content of that radio wave again, and frowned deeply.
"Hello... Cheng Lin... So this sentence I broadcast to the universe is to say hello to myself? Say hello? It's inexplicable! It makes no sense at all!"
Cheng Lin opened his eyes, deeply confused.
"No, it's not meaningless. This radio wave I sent was sent out by that antenna. There is a high probability that there will be information retained.
Moreover, although it is said that the emission should be long wave, not short wave,
But I'm not completely sure it won't be picked up by other telescopes on Earth.
I still know too little about this area...
Moreover, it is not clear how this radio wave is compiled. What will happen if it is deciphered?
Let’s not consider foreign countries first, let’s talk about the domestic government.
Once they learned that someone sent the words "Hello, Cheng Lin!" into the universe through an antenna,
What will happen?
They will definitely think of the first two projections and then trace them!"
Cheng Lin held his hands together unconsciously and rubbed them together, his eyes full of thoughts:
"People's names appeared in the projection before, and they may have tried to analyze them.
But because the logical chain is not established, it is difficult for them to connect it with me.
Unless those big shots open up God’s perspective,
But this time it's different,
If I suddenly disappear from the Ninth House, I will definitely be noticed.
Then Teacher Luo also found out that an invisible man took her car,
And got off the bus near Taoyuan Airport,
Although the flight from Taoyuan Airport to Jiamusi left no trace,
But the ghost car…
A taxi with no driver or passengers in sight ran from the airport to a deep space antenna,
This journey was filmed all over by cameras on the highway.
Once these clues are connected, it is easy to deduce that I have a problem,
He even guessed that it was me who sent this signal...
Well, will it be misunderstood that I am provoking the world?"
Cheng Lin's thoughts were mixed for a while, and he began to think wildly, but fortunately, all of this was a deduction, and they would disappear when the deduction was over.
So even if the whole world knows that he did it,
so what?
When the deduction is over, my buddy will run away!
Love so and so!
Thinking of this, the corners of Cheng Lin's mouth turned up slightly, feeling a little irritated inexplicably.
At this moment, he noticed that the taxi's glass began to become blurry.
"Is time speeding up again..."
He murmured, leaning on the seat in a comfortable position and looking out the window quietly.
A few seconds later, he found that the blur disappeared, and snow seemed to be falling outside the car window.
Yes, snow.
Looking out of the car window, the world has turned white and the sky has turned completely dark. According to the time in Northeast winter, it is about six or seven o'clock in the evening.
Although it was dark night, Cheng Lin could still clearly see the white snow on both sides of the road through the car lights.
The mountain peaks in the distance appear dark blue in the night, and the snow makes the world look like silver, which is very enchanting.
Snowflakes like goose feathers danced in the air and turned into a golden color when illuminated by the car lights.
A strong sense of tranquility arises spontaneously.
Soon, the snow seemed to stop.
Then, the car window flashed again, it was still dark, but the snow on the road seemed thinner than before.
Vehicles are no longer in deserted suburbs.
Instead, he was driving slowly on a certain main road in the city.
"Didi~didi~"
"Didi~didididi~"
The road was a bit crowded with vehicles, flanked by tall buildings with lights on and colorful billboards. The snow on the road had been cleared away, making it slippery and black, as if it had just been washed by water.
Cheng Lin saw a couple driving in a car opposite, wearing couple-style down jackets, smiling and talking.
Perhaps noticing his gaze, the man turned his head and looked at Cheng Lin.
Then……
She glared at him and said something to him through the two layers of car glass.
Judging from the mouth shape, it seems to be a sentence of "What are you looking at?"
Well, this person seems to have misunderstood something.
"Well? He can see me?"
Cheng Lin's first thought was this.
Aren't you invisible?
Has the effect been lifted?
Where is this place? Is it still in Jiamusi? Or somewhere else?
[Time always flies, like water between fingers, you can’t hold it. It’s been a year and a half since you invaded the central control computer and broadcast it to the universe]
Sure enough, time has accelerated.
"To correct you, it was you who invaded the computer, not me." Cheng Lin said seriously.
[…In the past year and a half, the world has remained peaceful. Your disappearance has caused some turmoil in some areas, but that’s all]
[Even the most powerful man in the world cannot trace a missing person]
[Haha, people are always so forgetful. In just a year and a half, people have almost forgotten all the projections that have appeared. In this era of information floods, everyone's memory is only seven seconds]
"Bah bang bang."
Cheng Lin applauded a few times symbolically, and then motioned for it to continue.
"Crunch!"
There was a braking sound, and the taxi without a driver suddenly turned into an alley and stopped.
Cheng Lin didn't wait for it to urge him and opened the car door consciously.
Hmm...a little cold...
It is obviously winter at this moment, especially in the northernmost province of Xia Kingdom, the temperature is particularly low.
Fortunately, the wind was not strong, but even so, Cheng Lin, who was still wearing the summer college uniform, still shivered all over, and his exposed skin was pimpled.
There is no one in the alley.
Cheng Lin took a look at his clothes and thought that going out like this might attract a lot of attention.
After thinking for a while, he turned around, opened the door of the safe house, and returned to the dormitory.
A few minutes later, Cheng Lin's figure appeared out of thin air in the quiet alley.
He changed into winter clothes, with a black down coat covering his whole body.
"This is much more normal."
Cheng Lin smiled softly and walked out of the alley.
Came to the street.
I don’t know what day it is today, but it’s very lively. Cars are coming and going, and the shops along the street are brightly lit. After walking a few steps, you can still see some remaining red firecracker skins on the roadside.
"Is the New Year over?"
Cheng Lin was thinking about this when he saw a guiding cursor appear on the ground again.
He said nothing and walked according to the instructions of the cursor. Everyone who bumped into him along the way would look at him. Obviously, the invisibility effect had indeed disappeared.
While walking along the way, Cheng Lin also confirmed that he was still in Jiamusi City based on some signboards.
As for the time... I looked at my phone.
"Ah, today happens to be the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival.
A day for family reunion.
In previous years, school had not started yet during the Lantern Festival, so Cheng Lin would cook a meal by himself, then turn on the TV, play some programs such as cross talk sketches, and then celebrate the festival by himself.
The sketches were only good if they were from the past. He didn't like to watch them in the past few years. The main reason was that those programs were all trying to be bad and wanted the audience to be moved and cry.
Just don't make people laugh.
The crosstalk is better.
Thinking about all this, Cheng Lin put his hands in his pockets and walked slowly along the street.
Soon, he reached the finish line.
It turned out to be the banks of the Songhua River!
Perhaps because of the festival, there are many people on the riverside at the moment. Most of them are families together, couples, friends, and some small vendors. The small carts are covered with colorful lanterns.
There is an unknown archway in the distance, with bright lights, red, yellow and other bright colors floating in the dark night.
At this moment, there was a group of people squatting by the river, not knowing what they were doing. While they were wondering, a series of melodious sounds suddenly sounded in their ears.
"Boohoo!"
Rays of brilliance suddenly rose from the ground, like shooting stars, rushing into the night sky.
Then when it reaches a certain high point, it suddenly stops and explodes with a bang, bursting into large groups of fireworks like beautiful flowers!
"boom!"
"Snapped!"
"Crack!"
Yellow, green, red, white... colorful fire beams exploded in the night sky, turning into brilliant, warm, flamboyant and gorgeous flowers.
The entire cold and monotonous night sky became gorgeous and gentle!
"Wow! Fireworks are set off!"
"Mom, look! Look!"
"Where's the phone? Husband, where's the phone? Take a picture for me!"
"Huo, this is beautiful!"
People on the riverside suddenly raised their heads collectively. The excited cheers of young children, the shouts of women, the conversations of men, and the cries of vendors were mixed together. The cold night sky seemed to be instantly warm as spring.
Cheng Lin stood quietly and alone in the crowd, looking up at the huge fireworks.
His face was illuminated, and his eyes reflected the various colors as well as the brocade-like night curtain and the stars in the sky on the background of fireworks.
The night is really nice today.
The stars are twinkling, the sky is clear, and the stars are quietly and faintly dotted on the dark background.
Every flash can be seen clearly.
And the bright moon is even more beautiful.
The moon on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the roundest. Her radiance is so beautiful and cold. The shallow shadows on the moon, which has always been facing the earth's surface since ancient times, are so clear.
Her reflection sank in the Songhua River, trembling from time to time with the water waves.
Occasionally it will break into countless light spots.
[You stand by the river, admiring the fireworks and the bright moon, feeling peaceful inside. However, compared to the short-lived fireworks, the stars are more permanent and contain many mysteries]
[It is said that people on the ground can only see 59% of the moon at most, but they can never see the back of the moon]
[Just like humans observing the universe, what is observed through the lens is always only part of the reality, and more secrets cannot be discovered]
[There are often powerful beings in the universe that humans cannot guess, and they are also a kind of mystery]
[Since humans invented radio, they have begun to transmit information into the universe, but they have never received a response]
[However, who can guarantee that this situation will continue forever? 】
The information in my mind stopped.
Cheng Lin's eyes became cold and confused.
The smile on his face disappeared without knowing when, and he just stood there, raising his head, staring at the night sky.
I don't know when, some of those twinkling stars suddenly became brighter.
The color also changed from white to crimson.
Those crimson stars, against the background of the entire night sky, outline a grand outline spanning the Milky Way.
At first, I couldn't tell what the outline was.
But as the bright full moon also became scarlet, and became a blood moon, its outline became much clearer.
After a few more seconds, the crimson moon suddenly split into another self.
Distributed symmetrically with the Milky Way as the mid-vertical line.
Two moons appeared in the sky.
They are like a pair of eyes, scarlet eyes, overlooking the earth.
And when the eyes became completely clear, the outline of a circle of stars around them suddenly became vivid.
"Face!"
Cheng Lin's eyes suddenly widened and his breathing became rapid!
He could see that the pattern composed of two moons and many stars was a human face!
Or more like a red mask!
An extremely huge starry sky, many times larger than the earth!
The blood moon is his eyes.
A circle of stars around him is his face.
The semi-arc pattern composed of dozens of stars is his smiling mouth.
A weird face looking down at the Earth with a smile!
Cheng Lin stood blankly on the spot, watching this scene in astonishment.
Is the real deduction... finally coming?
At this time, people gathered by the Songhua River finally discovered the strange changes in the night sky.
"Ah! Look!"
A sharp and harsh woman's exclamation suddenly arose.
"Heaven...what is that?!"
