It was as if the dark clouds in the sky had cleared and the sun was shining, and her inner world was also infected by this warm sunshine.
"This is... Jinghang?"
Cheng Xin looked around and soon found that the surrounding environment was so familiar.
This is the school where she studied for seven years for her undergraduate and graduate degrees, and it is also the place where she and Yun Tianming met.
"It's so beautiful!"
Cheng Xin couldn't help but let out an exclamation of admiration. She looked around carefully. Everything here seemed so real, as if she had really returned to her beautiful school days.
She recognized it. This was the Jinghang from ten years ago. The old building in the distance was renovated after they graduated from their senior year of undergraduate studies. At that time, Cheng Xin was a first-year graduate student, so she would occasionally return to the undergraduate department to take a look.
Soon, Cheng Xin found a figure sitting with his back to her by the lake in the distance.
It was a young girl in a white long dress. Even though she had her back to her, Cheng Xin still felt that this shadow was extremely familiar.
Only then did she realize that all the sunshine in this world was focused on that girl, as if she was the angel of this world.
That soft light made Cheng Xin yearn for it, and at this moment, she finally knew who that girl was.
That was Cheng Xin ten years ago.
Sure enough, the girl in white slowly stood up and turned her head. She had the same face as Cheng Xin.
But Cheng Xin at that time looked quite young and immature.
The surrounding calm lake surface blends with her into a beautiful landscape painting.
[Cheng Xin] is like a person walking out of a painting, like a fine work of art.
"It's so beautiful!"
This is Cheng Xin’s evaluation of this [Cheng Xin].
She was not narcissistic, but she really felt a gentle warmth from the other person. Such a perfect person even made Cheng Xin feel inferior to him.
Lin Xuan had told her before that the Super Dream World was the underlying structure constructed by Yun Tianming’s consciousness, so what you saw was the real thoughts in Yun Tianming’s mind.
"It turns out that I am so perfect in his heart."
Cheng Xin felt more and more guilty, and she seemed to understand why Yun Tianming was so angry.
Cheng Xin couldn't imagine the pain of being asked to die by such a perfect person in her heart.
She greatly underestimated her importance in Yun Tianming's heart.
Soon, [Cheng Xin] walked over slowly and looked at Cheng Xin.
"Let's go. Tianming asked me to wait for you here. She said you would definitely come."
Afterwards, Cheng Xin took Cheng Xin and walked into the teaching building.
Although he hadn't been here for almost ten years, Cheng Xin still remembered the way. This place was almost exactly the same as the real Jinghang place ten years ago.
It can be seen that Yun Tianming put a lot of effort into the construction of this place.
Soon, the two entered a multimedia classroom.
Cheng Xin remembered this place; it was the classroom where she and Yun Tianming took an elective course called "Building Space Engine Models" during her freshman year.
Generally speaking, university classrooms are mobile, but some experimental courses require special laboratories to be taught.
At that time, computers were not yet popular, so this kind of elective experimental course was generally completed in groups of two, working together.
First, it can speed up the teaching progress, and second, it can save more instrument resources.
She was assigned to a group with Yun Tianming. As far as she could remember, that seemed to be the only time she stayed with Yun Tianming for such a long time. She didn't expect that the classroom here was perfectly replicated by Yun Tianming.
Cheng Xin pulled her and sat down in the same seat where she and Yun Tianming had sat that year, and turned on the computer in front of them.
Soon, the picture appeared on the computer screen.
It’s Yun Tianming!
"Hi, Cheng Xin, I'm Tianming!"
The video has been edited, and it can be seen that Yun Tianming rehearsed repeatedly several times in order to record this video.
"If you can see this video, it means I should be dead. What a pity. I don't know if we saw each other in the end. Lin Xuan told me that you would definitely come to find me. I think he is a liar. Haha, you are a busy person, how could you come to find me?"
Although Yun Tianming said this, it can be seen that there is some expectation in his eyes, as if he really wants to meet Cheng Xin.
Cheng Xin couldn't help but cover her mouth. She couldn't imagine what kind of mentality Yun Tianming had when he recorded this video.
"Oh, by the way, you should have seen that [Fake Cheng Xin], right? How is it? Doesn't the one I portrayed look very similar to you? Hahaha, even though I haven't seen you for so many years, I still remember what you look like."
"If you're not satisfied, you can ask Lin Xuan for permission from the Mewtwo world to modify her image, but I don't think anyone in this world can portray her better than me. I'm telling you, it took me a whole day to make this character model, and it almost burned my brain cells to death."
Cheng Xin turned her head to look at Cheng Xin beside her. It was indeed as Yun Tianming said, quite perfect, even more perfect than her original body.
"Oh yes, the most important point is that I prepared two gifts for you. I wonder if you like them."
As Yun Tianming spoke, he took out a piece of paper from behind him. It was the purchase receipt for the DX3906 star.
Cheng Xin's pupils shrank when she saw the purchase receipt!
She felt like her whole brain was shaking.
She had once wondered who would be able to buy a star for herself, but she never expected that it would be Yun Tianming!
"Haha, you didn't expect that, did you? I gave you that star. Hu Wen, that guy, still has a conscience. He made a lot of money with my formula and gave me some of it. My disease can no longer be cured, so I participated in the Star Project and gave you a star."
"How about this gift? Are you satisfied with it?"
A smug smile appeared on Yun Tianming's face, as if he had already seen Cheng Xin's happy expression after receiving his gift.
Cheng Xin's mind went blank at this moment, and she could no longer stop crying.
"Cheng Xin, look at what you did. He gave you a star, but you killed him with your own hands and gave his brain to the Trisolarans."
Cheng Xin's emotions had completely collapsed. She felt as if countless knives were stabbing into her heart, and the pain almost suffocated her.
The video was still playing, and Yun Tianming had a silly smile on his face.
"Here is the second gift I prepared for you. It's all thanks to this guy Lin Xuan. He came up with this Super Dream Project. It's so real. My illness is very serious. I feel like I won't live much longer."
"If you miss me in the future, um... although this is unlikely, but if you really miss me, then come here and take a look. Everything here was created by my own hands... no, my own brain."
"I originally wanted to create an image of myself to accompany you, but then I thought, you probably won't like a lonely person like me. It doesn't matter, I created you. She has all my thoughts and memories. Because of my low self-esteem, I haven't dared to tell you many things over the years. You can slowly learn about my past from her. Of course, if you don't like it, just ignore what I said."
"This is my second gift to you. Thank you. You have always been the one who warmed my heart. Now, let me turn into the sun to warm you."
……
Cheng Xin didn't know how she exited the Mewtwo world, but when she came out, her whole spirit had completely collapsed.
She didn't dare to imagine what Yun Tianming would think when he found out that she wanted him dead.
She suddenly understood why Yun Tianming hated her so much. She understood everything!
I am indeed the murderer who killed Yun Tianming. He obviously loved me so much. I want him to die. How could he not agree?
Lin Xuan had been waiting by the side for a long time. When she saw Cheng Xin wake up, she immediately smiled.
Cheng Xin looked at that smile and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. She had also seen this kind of smile on Wade. It was a smile that appreciated the despair of others.
"Oh, let me tell you something funny."
Lin Xuan suddenly said.
Cheng Xin had completely collapsed at this point. She looked at Lin Xuan, waiting for his next words.
"The fruit knife on Yun Tianming's bedside was a toy knife that he replaced himself."
"Do you know why?"
Cheng Xin shook her head slowly.
"In fact, before returning to the hospital, I showed him your Ladder Program and told him that you would find him as a candidate for the Ladder Program."
"Yun Tianming's reaction at that time was very interesting. He said that he believed you would never let him die. You were so kind, even if you didn't know what he had done for you, you would not let him be the executor of this plan."
Cheng Xin's heart suffered a third critical blow. She could no longer cry and could not describe her inner collapse in words.
She really wanted to die immediately, and wished that Yun Tianming stabbed her with a real fruit knife.
"Later, I said let's make a bet. If you really let him be the executor of the Ladder Plan, then I will use a fake fruit knife to kill you as well."
"why?"
Cheng Xin was asking why not use a real knife.
Lin Xuan smiled, and then spoke word by word.
"Killing you with a real knife would be too easy for you. Killing you with a fake knife would be the best punishment for you!"
……
Cheng Xin later suffered from severe depression.
After the PDC's assessment, she had completely collapsed mentally and had strong suicidal tendencies, and could no longer continue to work at PIA.
In desperation, she was forced to hibernate. The PDC hopes to find a way to treat Cheng Xin's mental illness in the future.
Chapter 36 Taylor's Two Plans
Lin Xuan couldn't remember how many times she had come to the Garden of Eden.
This time, he did not find Taylor fishing by the lake. After walking around the entire Garden of Eden, he discovered that Taylor was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and turning the soil with a hoe in a field.
"Oh, you look quite relaxed. Are you playing Minecraft here?"
Hearing Lin Xuan's teasing, Taylor stopped what he was doing and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a smile.
"I plan to grow some potatoes and radishes here. Prices have risen a lot recently. Even Coke, which has never changed in price, has seen a slight price increase. Who knows, one day, I might need the vegetables I grow."
The signs of the coming of the great depression have begun quietly. Although the situation has not yet reached that level of tension, everyone can clearly feel the recent rise in prices.
Especially energy prices.
Because the Second Wallfacer Rey Diaz is still continuing to manufacture large-yield nuclear bombs, the price of uranium 235 has skyrocketed, and some small countries can no longer afford the use of nuclear energy.
The entire world's economic system has a chain reaction.
Uranium, as a metal material that provides radioactive nuclear energy, is not only a national strategic material in life, but also one of the main consumables of nuclear power generation.
Take China for example. Although wind power and thermal power account for the majority, it has still been affected by this energy crisis.
In a short period of time, electricity prices in countries around the world have skyrocketed.
PDC even held three energy-saving activities calling for "Global Blackout Day" in just half a year.
In China, the intensity of the west-to-east electricity transmission project has been gradually increased, with the Three Gorges Dam as the center.
Shuzhou, a province, is directly responsible for the power supply to the provinces in East China, such as Shanghai, Zhejiang, and Jiangzhou, to ensure the normal operation of the country's economy.
But this directly emptied the energy storage of the entire Shuzhou. For a period of time, Shuzhou even had a clear regulation that "lights are not allowed to be turned on at night."
Without electricity, the winter is not that bad, but in the summer, the temperature in Shuzhou can reach as high as 42 degrees.
What does 42 degrees mean? If you throw an egg on the ground, it will probably be cooked after a while.
It was so hot and there was no electricity. In just half a month, the number of deaths from heat stroke rose like a rocket along with the price of electricity.
Although people did not dare to say anything openly about Rey Diaz's actions, they still felt a little disgusted with this wall-facer in their hearts.
For a while, on the Internet, one could occasionally see some negative information about the second Wallfacer, Rey Diaz.
Of course, these were all secretly instigated by the Eagle Sauce.
Otherwise, with the current Internet monitoring technology, how could the negative news about a wall-facing person be made public by ordinary people?
Diaz didn't care about this.
He once said this in an interview with a reporter.
"There are so many people who hate me now. The ETO hates me, the Trisolarans hate me, and even the PDC hates me. People who don't know the truth will also be prejudiced against me because of the so-called negative news. But it doesn't matter. I am a wall-facer. I just need to know what I am doing."
Taylor brought two chairs and sat opposite Lin Xuan in the farmland of the Garden of Eden. He made Lin Xuan a cup of coffee that Luo Ji had sent back from Paris.
"Luo Ji said he got it from the Les Deux Magots, a café that Picasso had visited. It was named after two Chinese ceramic figures."
Lin Xuan took a sip of coffee, and after the mellow coffee flavor spread on his tongue, he spoke.
"Haven't he and Zhuang Yan come back yet?"
