The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

A core member of the Taylor faction expressed his opinion: "Those who resist micro-scale must be severely suppressed. The implementation of the mobile urban cluster plan poses a serious obstacle to Mr. Taylor's proposed Sunrise Plan."

"The implementation of the Bunker Project means that the deceptionists' plan to deceive civilizations has become meaningless. Once a sufficiently careful hunter discovers that there are still survivors in the solar system after the attack, a second attack will inevitably come again."

Davis shook his head. "Too radical. In an unstable environment, the more radical we are, the more trouble we'll cause. If problems arise, it will only waste our precious time."

The core member who made the proposal countered, "Allowing those who resist micro-management to exist is also a waste of our precious time."

Davis thought about it and ultimately did not agree with the idea of ​​that core member.

“Wait a little longer. The situation isn’t at its worst yet. The reason those people resist micro-transformation is simply because they’re worried that the immaturity of mind transfer technology will kill themselves and their families. We’ll lightly suppress these people in terms of public opinion while simultaneously completing the mind transfer technology as soon as possible, ensuring that the success rate of micro-transformation reaches 100%. Then they will naturally stop resisting so much,” Davis said.

……

Humanity throughout the solar system, from top to bottom, is in a state of busyness and anxiety, because no one knows whether the plans they support are truly effective. Humanity knows too little about the Black Forest attack, which leads to a lack of confidence among everyone.

If we're talking about the most relaxed person, it has to be Lin Feng, who took Edith and Haruhi to Earth for a vacation.

Lin Feng and his group went to the island where Luo Ji had lived for a long time for a vacation. Luo Ji's family had moved away, and there were only the three of them on the island. The blue sky and sea, the sea breeze blowing the broad branches of the coconut trees swayed in the wind, the shade of the trees swayed on the soft white sand, and the rolling waves came one after another.

These things don't exist in the universe, and Lin Feng knows this very well, so he wants to make the most of this time.

The three of them, tired from playing on the beach, sat in the shade of a coconut tree, drinking coconut water and enjoying this moment of peace without any conflict.

Edith looked up at the azure sky and suddenly said sadly, "The problem is still the same problem. It hasn't changed over the years. There's no need for humanity and the Trisolarans to fight each other. It's just a matter of mutual distrust."

"Now that destruction is imminent and even survival is a challenge, what is there that we cannot trust one another about?"

"Miss Suzumiya..."

Suzumiya smiled slightly. "Just call me Suzumiya, Edith. Family members don't need to be so distant."

“Yes, Edith, put aside the work PDC gave you back then, and just call me by my first name in private,” Lin Feng said.

Edith paused for a moment, then smiled with relief.

"……I see."

"I want to ask, what exactly was the Three-Body world thinking over all these years? I simply cannot understand this psychological change?"

Looking at Haruhi, Edith voiced her question.

Liang Gong explained, "Because they learned human thinking, the Trisolarans' thinking was transparent. They had no understanding of human schemes before they came into contact with them. It wasn't until later, through Evans, the first de facto leader of ETO, that the Trisolarans gradually learned what schemes and deception were. It was also from that time that they gradually came to understand the Dark Forest Theory."

"Later, human actions, especially the deceptive behavior of the various Wallfacers in the Wallfacer Project, deepened the Trisolaran world's distrust of the human species. The Trisolarans saw humans as snakes in the eyes of humans. Even though humans are several times larger than snakes, and know that they can kill or control snakes with a high probability by using tools, they still will not deliberately approach snakes."

Edith asked in confusion, "Then why aren't you afraid of us, Haruhi?"

If the Trisolarans see humans as dangerous snakes, then wouldn't Haruhi Suzumiya be living in a snake pit every day? How come Haruhi can still sleep?

Ryouko replied dismissively, "There's no shortage of biologists in human society who have close contact with wild snakes. Absolute barriers don't exist. There are always people who can overcome their fear. Don't we have professions like snake charmers in human society?"

Edith roughly understood the situation with Haruhi Suzumiya, but there was still one thing she couldn't understand. Remembering what happened last night, her pretty face blushed, and she asked somewhat awkwardly, "But your aesthetic sense is still that of the Trisolarans, right? Taylor... well, in your eyes, Maple should be considered 'ugly,' right?"

"Why do you think that? Don't humans also find cats, dogs, and pandas cute? Some people even think that fierce-looking dinosaurs are cool." The girl blinked and looked at Edith strangely.

Edith stared blankly. According to Haruhi Suzumiya, humans were like dinosaurs to dinosaur enthusiasts—a cool feeling.

Then wouldn't that mean...?

"...Never mind, I won't investigate further."

Edith gave up thinking.

Chapter 292 Feng Taylor's Intentions

The Trisolaran system, the Trisolaran mother planet—this was a constant era. Yet, the beauty of this constant era did not bring much joy to the Trisolaran 5799 listener on the mother planet; he left behind only sorrowful lamentations.

The eavesdropper looked at the world four light-years away, that dreamlike, beautiful world that was about to come to an end, just like the world he was in. There were no survivors; the hunters would kill everyone.

Through Zhizi, one can see the azure sky, the silvery-white sand, and the large fruit that 1314 is holding.

Why must humans and the Trisolarans kill each other?

The inspector who came to inspect interrupted 5799's thoughts, "What are you doing? Things are different now than before. Individual sophons need to interfere with more objects."

In the past, 5799 might not have done anything out of line, because the inspector was his superior.

But things are different now. With the hunters' destruction looming, 5799 no longer wants to think about competition. He just wants to appreciate the beauty of that world four light-years away.

Isn't it tragic to have to rack your brains about how to compete with others when death is imminent?

The key point is that the other side can no longer threaten them, and everyone is actively trying to escape, which makes Zhizi's blockade meaningless.

5799 looked at the prosecutor with disgust and questioned, "We abandoned people will die, so why can't we do what we want to do and see what we want to see in our final moments?"

"The blue sky, white clouds, flowers, trees, birdsong, and fragrance of flowers on Earth—that dreamlike world is so beautiful. I can't reach it, but can't I even take one more look? Besides, the solar system is about to be destroyed, and that world no longer poses a threat to the fleeing Trisolaran fleet."

5799's words did not sway the prosecutor. It was precisely because of his firm beliefs that the prosecutor was assigned to this position.

"This is not part of our job duties."

The prosecutor paused for a moment before replying, then reminded 5799, "Disobeying orders is a crime. I can pretend I didn't see what you're doing now, but I'll give you some time to calm down. Don't do anything foolish."

In the Trisolaran world, there are only two legal judgments: 'guilty' and 'not guilty'. If 'guilty', one will be burned at the stake; if 'not guilty', nothing will happen.

Accepting an assigned task but disobeying orders is dereliction of duty, and dereliction of duty can generally be considered a 'crime'.

“I can’t do this job anymore. If I continue to suppress my emotions, I will definitely have a mental breakdown. Please arrange for someone else to do it as soon as possible.”

With this response to the prosecutor, 5799 returned to his post.

However, the prosecutor's subsequent response was somewhat unexpected for 5799.

"You can look at things on Earth if you want, but only if it doesn't interfere with your work duties; otherwise, you'll be considered guilty."

5799 asked in surprise, "Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

“If you find someone else, they’ll leave soon too,” the prosecutor explained helplessly, turning and leaving.

For a while afterward, aside from glancing at what kind of trouble Maple Taylor was up to, 5799 spent the rest of his time observing the beautiful landscapes of Earth through the Sophon.

As time went on, 5799 couldn't help but wonder why Feng Taylor would choose to go to Earth at a time when the solar system was about to be destroyed.

Staying at the Taylor Group headquarters would allow them to quickly board an escape ship and flee into the depths of space before the attack, which would obviously be safer.

This question persisted until 5799 communicated with another monitor, 6008, who was responsible for interfering with accelerators near Jupiter, and the answer became clear.

"I really envy 1314, being able to live in such a heavenly world," 5799 said to 6008, sounding both complaining and sighing.

6008 replied, "Once we can miniaturize to the atomic size, riding the winds of stars, it will only take a few years to reach that world and personally experience the beauty that we can only dream of."

The Trisolarans who remained in the Trisolaran world were not sitting idly by waiting to die; they were actively trying to save themselves. As long as they could complete atomization, they could escape into the universe at near the speed of light, just like the Sophon.

Of course, whether it can be successfully developed is unknown. Scientific research has never been 100% successful. The Trisolarans have never done anything like microscopicization since the beginning of their civilization. This is a scientific exploration without any accumulated experience, just like the Sophon Project.

5799 said, "It's impossible. Even if we successfully atomize, that world will be destroyed by the hunters, and that beautiful, paradise-like world will cease to exist."

5799 was pessimistic. He didn't know why he was so pessimistic. He could only say that he was born that way. He didn't believe that the remaining Trisolarans could atomize before the Hunters' strike.

5799 believes that both the humans remaining in the solar system and the Trisolarans remaining in the Trisolaran system will face annihilation.

Suddenly, 5799 had a flash of inspiration, and the question that had been puzzling him for so long was finally answered.

"I understand!"

"What do you understand?" 6008 was startled by 5799's sudden reaction.

5799 explained, “I’ve never understood why Feng Taylor and 1314 would return to Earth at this time. Now I understand everything. They were keeping it from the decision-makers and sending messages to all the Trisolarans who remained on their home planet.”

"Information? What information? I don't understand." 6008 was stunned.

Has Feng Taylor been sending messages to those of them who remained on the Trisolaran homeworld?

Or was the information transmission completed in secret from the decision-making level and from all the Trisolarans who left their home planet and fled into the universe?

6008 feels that 5799 is talking nonsense and insulting his intelligence.

Ruofeng Taylor was indeed sending a message, and the decision-makers had already discovered it.

5799 explained, “Listen to me, the decision-makers and those who left have different psychological states than those of us who stayed.”

"Piloting a light-speed spaceship, those who leave can find countless worlds in the universe that are just like Earth, or even more beautiful and dreamlike than Earth. Therefore, they will not feel anything about everything that Feng Taylor enjoyed on Earth."

"Those who remain, looking at that beautiful world that is about to disappear, will inevitably feel regret. If they think of the fate that their home planet will also face, they will feel even more sorrow."

After 5799 finished explaining, 6008 asked in confusion, "Is this the message that Feng Taylor was conveying to us?"

Upon closer reflection, 6008 realized that this was indeed the case; the Somoid had never relaxed its surveillance of Feng Taylor, and in fact, multiple Somoids were constantly monitoring him.

If Feng Taylor runs to Earth, the Sophon's surveillance will naturally also have to move to Earth, and the Trisolaran world's perspective will naturally shift to Earth.

Seeing Earth, a beautiful world on the verge of destruction, most people in the Trisolaran world would naturally think of their home planet, which was also about to be destroyed.

What was Ke Feng Taylor's intention in doing this? 6008 doesn't understand.

Chapter 293 How many Wallfacers does humanity actually have?

5799 rejected 6008's idea, "No, this is just a thought experiment to conceal the fact that they are transmitting information. The real information lies in the behavior of Feng Taylor, 1314, and that female human named 'Edith.' They live together in one place, and that is all the information."

Living together and still exchanging information? 6008 looked at 5799 with great surprise.

"What is the content of the information?" 6008 asked.

5799 replied, "Humans and Trisolarans can coexist; there is no inherent conflict between open-minded and closed-minded thinking."

For a moment, the atmosphere between the two Trisolarans became even more somber.

After a long while, 6008 finally broke the silence.

"What do you plan to do?" 6008 asked.

5799 replied helplessly, "What can I do? I'm just an ordinary eavesdropper, but..."

He paused, looked away, and continued, "Someone will always do something about it; I'm certainly not the only one who understands this."

……

Lin Feng and Liang Gong sat by the sea. As dusk approached, watching the setting sun slowly sink below the horizon, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.

The scenery of my hometown is beautiful, but it will eventually disappear.

What will they do?

Liang Gong, who was sitting next to Lin Feng, suddenly turned his head and asked.
