Chapter 541: Chapter 4 The Mystery of Chu Anqing’s Disappearance Chapter 541: Chapter 4 The Mystery of Chu Anqing’s Disappearance “That’s not right either,”
Lin Xian shook his head.
Strictly speaking, Jask, the world’s wealthiest, was not the biggest beneficiary without any loss.
He had not directly participated in the battle for the Space-Time Particles, but that timely rocket launch must also have come at a hefty price.
his years-long, multi-billion US dollar Starlink Satellite project was completely destroyed, leading to direct losses, indirect stock price damages, and associated follow-on losses which likely summed up to several times more than the billions initially invested.
This event’s chain reaction, if continued, would inevitably cost him his spot as the wealthiest man in the world.
From the current stock prices, it seems the title had already changed hands.
But the wealth of these global tycoons fluctuates greatly every day, and no one can predict the exact amount; it was clear that Jask was severely hurt this time, hit right in the artery.
Therefore, from an economic perspective, Jask was actually the one who suffered the heaviest losses in this battle for the Space-Time Particles.
Hence, one cannot say that Jask was just watching from the sidelines; in some sense, he was also a victim.
Lin Xian lowered his head, looking at the bustling and lively night scene of the Imperial Capital:
“Moreover, all my current guesses are based on the assumption that ‘Dream World is real.’ If we consider the possibility that Dream World is fake, simulated, like a movie set…
then speculating about who the Black Hand is behind the scenes is meaningless.”
“So, the priority is to find a way to quickly verify the authenticity of Dream World.
Only by clarifying this major premise can we continue to reason further.
if the premise is incorrect, it’s like building on a crooked foundation, and any subsequent reasoning and construction will inevitably be skewed and erroneous.”
Lin Xian stretched out his right hand and pressed his chest.
In the pocket of his pajamas, he kept the [small note] that Chu Anqing had written for him.
It could be said that this small note was the last item Chu Anqing left for him.
Previously, Lin Xian had been troubled for months, not knowing what to write on the note that could deceive the entire world and everyone involved, even if enemies saw and copied it in advance, to convey a message that would span 600 years and then enlighten him the moment he saw the contents about the true and false nature of the dream.
On his 25th birthday, he shared this question with Chu Anqing.
At that time, she too found no answer, thinking the problem too difficult, barely understanding the question itself.
after Chu Anqing touched the Space-Time Particles,
she seemed like a completely different person, everything about her changed.
She cried out to Huang Que, asking if all this was real…
her expression showing profound sadness and despair.
Lin Xian couldn’t understand.
What exactly was Chu Anqing asking about?
And why, after coming into contact with the Space-Time Particles, did she react so dramatically, her emotions so intense?
Could it be that she realized something upon touching the Space-Time Particles?
Or did she awaken some past, future, or even memories that didn’t belong to her?
At the time, the situation was urgent, and Chu Anqing was busy writing the note and capturing the Space-Time Particles; there was no time to ask these questions.
Lin Xian had planned to ask her carefully after everything was over but never expected that there would never be another chance.
All this became an unsolvable mystery.
And the solution to the mystery, presumably, was also written on this small piece of paper bet on time-space and fate…
Lin Xian’s fingers tightened over his chest, feeling the folded piece of paper inside through the thin fabric of his pajamas.
To this day, no one had seen this small piece of paper.
In the year 2024, no one knew what was written on it.
It was truly, absolutely a secret known to no one.
Because Chu Anqing had also vanished, the only person who knew the content was gone, and thus, by a strange twist of fate, [a secret and a cipher unknown to the whole world were born].
These days, Lin Xian carried this small piece of paper with him at all times.
He never dared let it out of his sight.
This was a note bought with Chu Anqing’s life…
If it were lost or seen by others, it would truly be a tremendous disservice to Chu Anqing’s painstaking efforts.
She had also earnestly cautioned him.
“Look at it over there…
you will definitely understand.”
At that time, Chu Anqing’s gaze was incredibly confident.
Lin Xian believed her.
Chu Anqing was always a very honest and straightforward girl; she didn’t pretend to know what she did not understand, and similarly…
If she was sure about something, then it was likely, indeed possible, truly feasible.
Moreover, the contents of this note were written by Chu Anqing after she had touched the Space-Time Particles, surely related to her emotional breakdown and possibly awakened memories at that time.
When they were on the Sky-Space Aircraft, he asked her what had happened.
She was about to speak.
But suddenly stopped, swallowed the words at her throat, and then asked to write the note instead.
Whatever she wanted to say at that moment and what was written on the note was highly related and equally significant.
Lin Xian has often been curious and speculated about what exactly was written on the note.
