VV is really going to die completely.”
Lin Xian sighed lightly, leaned his body backward, and rested his head on the car seat’s headrest.
Suddenly feeling a bit sentimental.
Wherever VV could go, the thing that killed VV could also go there;
The “killer,” having been able to kill VV, means that its technological level must certainly be above VV’s;
Wherever VV existed there must be electricity, and wherever there’s electricity, the “killer” could invade—
“Ah!!!!!!!”
Gao Yang, deep in sleep, suddenly let out a howl!
Because Lin Xian punched him in the thigh, punched his thigh.
“Ow, what are you doing!” Gao Yang complained.
However...
...
Lin Xian completely ignored him.
His eyes wide open.
He thought of something!
An object!
An object not connected to the network, impenetrable, with no power cord plugged in, and that was even in a state of no power—
[The computer with VV’s source code written on it!]
The moment he thought of this breakthrough, he couldn’t help but punch down, hitting Gao Yang’s thigh.
“Brilliant...”
Lin Xian suddenly woke up.@@@@
That laptop, after being brought back from Mi Country, ran out of battery not long after.
Because this laptop was originally bought to bring VV back from the future, it was not used regularly, so Lin Xian didn’t bother to charge it or plug it in, just throwing it on top of the bookshelf and forgetting about it.
It was with this laptop that he first wrote down VV’s initial code, and when he took VV with him abroad to Mi Country, it also hid inside it, crossing borders within his own flesh.
[That’s a place where VV’s killer could absolutely not penetrate!]
No power cord plugged in, no network cable connected, and both the wireless network card and the Bluetooth module had been removed by himself.
Most importantly...
In this small mirror, he also saw his own tired reflection.
Clearly, the mirror Huang Que was talking about might not be one in reality.
About the mirrors in the dreamscapes, he had also looked into many times over the years, especially in the First Dreamland where he saw himself growing up gradually within the dream by looking into the mirror from childhood to adulthood.
In the Second Dreamland, he had looked into the mirrors at Big Face Cat’s house several times, even in Big Face Cat father’s room, the mirror covered with the number 42; he also glanced at it several times, with the reflection shown being no different from himself, completely identical.
In the Third Dreamland, the reflections on the astronaut helmet’s visor, the rearview mirror when driving, and those smooth metal panels in the Rhein Museum that were like mirrors...
he had looked into them numerous times as well.
Because Huang Que told him the Mirror Puzzle while he was in the Third Dreamland, he naturally looked into every mirror he could find, still without noticing anything out of the ordinary.
The Fourth Dreamland shouldn’t even be mentioned; he had no chance to look into mirrors at all.
However, the electronic warrant shown by the soldier captain, under the scorching midday sun, would reflect light making the words on it hard to decipher—also turning it into something that could be used as a mirror.
He had looked into that as well...
Still the same, nothing unusual, not at all.
Therefore, regarding the Mirror Puzzle, Lin Xian genuinely felt he had done his best.
As of now, he naturally believed Huang Que’s words:
“In the mirror, there is something you want.”
He also wanted it.
He even firmly believed that whatever was in this mirror must be a key point capable of breaking the game.
But...
It’s unsolvable!
He couldn’t solve this riddle at all.
No matter if he asked VV or Zhao Yingjun herself, what they said was for him to earnestly look into mirrors...And not only had he looked, he had done so many times, but to no avail.
Lin Xian scratched his head.
He felt inexplicably trapped, with nowhere to go.
Pits everywhere,
Walls everywhere,
No clues to be found,
No threads to grasp.
As his interactions with the Genius Club deepened and his knowledge expanded, this sense of confusion and powerlessness grew stronger.
