CC and Wei Shengjin were puzzled when Lin Xian mentioned outsmarting Er Zhuzi.
CC squinted his eyes,
“Are you very good at scheming?
But from the memory fragments I have of you, you seem to be more adept with firearms and direct combat.”
Lin Xian waved his hand dismissively,
“Please, fighting those mindless folks from Lian Gang, who needs intelligence?
I admit my IQ isn’t that high, but crushing Big Face Cat and Er Zhuzi is definitely no problem.”
“Sometimes...
I even feel a bit guilty about how easily I deceive them.”
Lin Xian was telling the truth.
With so many dream experiences, except for a pleasant collaboration in the Third Dreamland, the rest of their encounters were all about cunning and deception.
If they were lucky, leaving the Lian Gang members alive and taking Big Face Cat’s motorcycle was considered the end.
...
If they were unlucky, Big Face Cat and his three little brothers would likely end up with their heads blown off.
That’s also why Lin Xian didn’t use his pistol to kill the four during the last dream entry.
They had been together for so long.
There were some feelings, after all.
If they could outsmart them, it was better not to resort to violence.
“Let’s go and see the situation first,”
Afterward,
the trio set out again.
CC had scouted the area several times before and knew the route well; after several minutes of hiking, they reached a dirt hillock, which allowed them to hide in the bushes and overlook the entire Lian Village.
Lin Xian opened Wei Shengjin’s backpack and from the innermost compartment, took out a telescope.
This scene dumbfounded both Wei Shengjin and CC.
“Boy, you’re too much.”
Wei Shengjin said helplessly,
“I forgot I was even carrying this thing, you’re more familiar with this backpack than I am.”
Lin Xian narrated the information he saw.
Wei Shengjin sighed inevitably,
“Ah, it’s not ours.
We’ve been so concerned about finding a Hafnium Alloy Safe, and now that we’ve found two, the names and numbers aren’t ours...
I can’t help but feel a bit disappointed.”
CC smiled, consoling Wei Shengjin,
“Teacher Wei, patience is indeed needed for this kind of search.
You’re still lucky to at least know your safe’s combination.
The one I’m looking for...
I don’t know where it is, don’t know the combination, and don’t even know what’s inside.”
“But since I’ve decided to find it, I’ll definitely find it and open it; I absolutely won’t go back otherwise.
So don’t be discouraged, Teacher Wei, let’s keep up our efforts.
Your metal detector has already multiplied our efficiency many folds.”
Wei Shengjin wiped the sweat from his forehead and chuckled,
“Thank you, young lady, you and Lin Xian are good people, I can see that.
I’m just venting briefly, I certainly won’t give up easily.
Although I don’t know why you two are so fixated on the safe, for me...
this is about finding my past self, the meaning of life, and the last regret of recalling past memories.”
“So, I definitely won’t give up.
As for you, young lady, seeing how young you are and unfamiliar with many Mars Technology products...
you must definitely be a native Earth human, right?
Logically, Tem Bank disappeared after the great disaster of 2400; at your age...
you shouldn’t have a safe.
Even now, on Earth, there’s no hibernation pod technology, and no one you know, not even elders, should know anything about Tem Bank Safes.
So, what brings you here?
Are you also seeking the meaning of life?”
“Pretty much,”
