In the night sky, far away from Planet Aquamarine, a few wormholes were opening and closing while leaking rays of rainbow and lighting up the dark universe into a colorful playground. These lights focused together and scattered away, as if it was a thin layer of silk drifting through space and mesmerized anyone who saw the view.
Around the center of the shattered wormhole was a large space station floating in space, and the shape was like three buildings stacked on each other horizontally. On the side and on the top of the space stations were different towers, some of which were the signal tower, some were space stabilizer, and others were weaponry and garages for convoys.
The bottom of the space station was a large metallic sphere, and a dark blue light surrounded the circle as if it was the path of orbit. This was the space station's reactor, engine, and gravitation stabilizer.
The space station had a very complex and detailed structure, and it advanced and futuristic. The 'windows' of the buildings were space decks for spacecraft to dock. One would have no perception of the space station without looking at the map. Each one of the decks could accommodate a spaceship that was a few hundred meters long. The space station had tens of thousands of decks, and it looked at an artificial mountain range.
It was Zuric Hub, the transit station of the Garton Galaxy.
The wormholes floating around the station were the different pathways to different civilizations in the Kerbal Stellar. Using an immense amount of resources in exchange for help from the advanced civilization, a stable stellar gate had been built, which allowed people to travel across different areas and solar systems in the Kerbal Stellar quickly and efficiently.
The space station took in thousands of spaceships every second, as if it was a beehive. A small spaceship covered in yellow and white flew into a space deck. The spaceship shook as it entered to the gravitational area, and it headed into the garage after a few minutes.
The garage was filled with blue and white. The original materials for the garage were a combination of special metallic bonds and macromolecule materials. After a few seconds, the garage sounded with a women's digital voice.
"Identity authorized. Permit granted to dock. Welcome, Captain Kerlodd, space investigator 741 of Godora.
Whoosh.
The door to the aircraft opened, and a man walked down as a platform extended onto the ground.
He was a male Godoran with light-golden skin. His hair was white and had seven braids on the back of his head. There were bolden spheres that were tied on the end of the braids. He had similar facial features to a human, but there was more space between the parts of the face. The body structure was also identical to that of human—one brain, two hands, two lands, and a schlong. There was nothing extra such as a tail or an additional limb. He was two meters tall, which was the average height of Godoran.
Kerlodd, who worked for the Godoran Space Investigation Department, was the captain of an investigation team. Even though his title was captain, he did not have any men under his command. He only had a Godora standardized suitcase, equipment, and the Observer, which was a small-sized spaceship. The spaceship was thirty meters long, and it could only hold one passenger.
Kerlodd was the one who had been sent to investigate the 'Inhumans' on Planet Aquamarine.
"Oh wow, a pure-blood Godoran. It's rare to see such an elite species."
As the gate of the garage opened, a man wearing the work suit for the space station laughed. He had the same appearance as Kerlodd, but he was much shorter, and his skin was not as gold. This was half-breed Godoran, where one of his parents was another species.
"Huh, an inferior breed." Kerlodd glanced at the worker and looked down at him. Godorans had extreme pride in remaining pure-blooded and denounces mixed breeds. It was part of their culture that they should discriminate against those who are not pure-blooded Godorans. That was why he called the worker 'inferior breed'.
The man did not bother and said, "Just register. How long will you park here, and where will you be heading to?"
"Stopping for two days to refuel, then will head to Star Zone 9 to investigate an unusual phenomenon in an undeveloped civilization," Kerlodd replied.
"Star Zone 9? Isn't that a very dangerous place? Seems that you got the difficult work from your boss."
"But since it was an uncivilized place, the reason that they thought that it was an unexplained phenomenon was because of their lack of technology. I can just take a look and come back in no time." Kerlodd raised his chin, walked out of the garage, and headed to the resting station in the middle of the space station.
After the two left, the gate of the garage closed.
After some time, a black gluey object crawled out from the platform of the space dock. It looked like it was a life form, and this unknown object was only a meter squared large.
The gluey liquid slowly crawled up to the 'Observer' and disappeared into the cracks of the spaceship.
…
In the icy mountain range of Planet Aquamarine's Northern Continent, a black helicopter with the Dark Net logo rested on one of the mountains.
Han Xiao crossed his arms in front of him and viewed the clouds drifting in the mountain range. The cold air kept on slipping into his sleeves, but Han Xiao did not feel slightly cold.
On the other hand, the pilot who wore three layers of clothes was freezing to death. He asked with a shaky voice, "Cough… Your Excellency, what are we doing here?"
Han Xiao looked at him with surprise. "Are you new? Did you not learn the principle to never ask questions?"
"Of… of course I did…" the pilot said with teeth chattering from cold. "But we have already waited for four days. Rather than not asking, I need to make sure if I need to prepare myself to die from hypothermia."
Han Xiao laughed. "What's your name?"
"Huang Jian, just finish pilot training last month."
Han Xiao was surprised. "Huang Jian, both of the characters sound like he's a creep. He must have a bright future ahead of him!"
With the boss joking around, what could Huang Jian do? He could only act like he did not hear it and ask, "Your Excellency, how long do we have to wait?"
"One day at minimum, but it might take up to half a month."
Huang Jian's face froze. The difference was too much!
After some thought, Huang Jian raised his courage and asked another question that violated the principle. "What are you waiting for?"
Han Xiao looked at him and replied, "You'll know once it arrives."
There were only two people in the chopper. They chattered to alleviate the boredom. However, most of the time, Han Xiao was watching the matches on the forum. The international all-stars had started. All the top teams from each region competed fiercely, and the players brought endless entertainment onto the stage. Han Xiao used this to pass the time while waiting in the chopper.
All stars had players from other regions, and all of them were strong teams from their respective countries, such as Magic Field from the United States, Rose Knights from the United Kingdom, Kimchi from Korea, and Tulip from France. All of them were in the same position in their countries as Temple of God in China.
Seeing the familiar teams from the previous world, Han Xiao finally remembered that the champion of the first international competition was Tulip from France.
All-Stars was the very first international competition, and all the players from different regions would pay close attention to this event. The popularity was at least ten times greater than the competitions in local regions. All the winners from different countries would show their power and strength. Press conferences before and after the competitions were also filled with compliments and enthusiasm. This event was a chance for the top teams to advertise themselves, and it was also to promote the upcoming international stage.
Temple of God from Planet Aquamarine also grabbed some fans from other countries as they performed well in the matches. Li Ge was happy with the result.
Three days after the end of the All Stars, every region started their quarterfinals. The competition format was a best of five team battle. Long Sky was lucky that they met a weaker team from a foreign country, so the powerhouses did not meet.
As for the individual bracket, Hao Tian was not so lucky. In the first round, he had to fight Li Ge.
Before the match, Li Ge was out of character as he issued an aggressive statement.
"The first opponent I will face is Hao Tian, and I think that it is good news. I can't say that I will beat him for sure. If I'm being humble, I think my chances of beating him are around ninety percent."

What will happen when our protagonist's two realities coincide? 
Han Xiao was a professional power leveler before his transmigration. Using his past life's knowledge, Han Xiao sweeps through the universe as he prepares for the arrival of the players. This is definitely not your typical transmigration novel.

The entire summit lasted two days, while Jiang Chen spent a full week in Canberra. Half of a day was spent in the summit, four days were spent in business meetings, and two days were spent with Ayesha, touring Canberra and experiencing the Australian culture.
However, there was nothing to visit during this time. Many shops in Canberra were tempoarliy closed due to this high-level summit.
The result of the summit was surprising. In some sense, even Jiang Chen didn't expect this level of success. Originally, he thought that when such a demanding cooperation framework without even any profitability discussion was proposed, not many people would work with him, but it was not the case.
The first country to express their willingness to cooperate was Moro. After all, the state was Xin's number one supporter. However, Jiang Chen was very skeptical if Santos even knew what the space elevator was. In addition, Malaysia, Thailand, New Zealand, Madagascar and some small African countries accepted the cooperation framework proposed by Celestial Trade.
After a period of discussion, Hua and Russia also expressed their willingness to join the cooperation framework.
The representative of Hua proposed to establish a microgravity laboratory for the Institute of Mechanics of the Hua Academy of Sciences for 51 national research projects including two-phase flow, microgravity combustion, vapor phase epitaxy, metal alloy nucleation, and supercooling. The offer was a research fund of 1.57 billion Xin New Dollars.
The conditions for building a microgravity laboratory on the ground were quite difficult, and the UA had been trying to obstruct Hua's participation in the International Space Station project, making the microgravity experiment only possible on the ground. After all, the cost of maintaining a large space station alone was too expensive.
To simulate the gravity-free environment in the experiment, Hua's solution was to design a tall tower that simulated the microgravity environment through free fall. In the National Microgravity Laboratory established in 1995, the design of the 100-meter drop tower, in which the microgravity time of the landing system was 3.5 seconds, and the microgravity time of the drop tube system was 3.26 seconds. Both parameters were already considered topnotch in the world.
This achievement was worth being proud of, but it was also very helpless, because they were forced to adapt and innovate.
After the summit, the first thing that the Hua representative told Jiang Chen was to set up a microgravity laboratory in Celestial City and offered a quote of 1.07 billion. Converted into Hua's local currency, it was a huge sum of more than 7 billion. But compared to the tens of billions of huge costs of building a space station alone, and the unimaginable maintenance costs, the figure was nothing.
Since Hua was the first country to work with Celestial Trade, the microgravity laboratory cooperation document signed with Hua became the blueprint for negotiations with other parties.
Subsequently, Russia also reached an agreement with Celestial Trade to invest 950 million to build a relatively small microgravity laboratory in the gravity-free section of Celestial City, which replaced the original Russian area expansion on the International Space Station.
However, the majority of the income didn't come from this, it was the private companies that made Jiang Chen his fortune.
Formerly, space was still an unattainable dream for ordinary people. If it was not a rich man, only people who signed SpaceX's Mars Program to board the one-way spacecraft could achieve their space dream.
But now was the turning point.
Celestial Trade announced the fare of the space elevator on its official website. The base price of the adult fare before tax was only 1,500 Xin New Dollars! It was even cheaper than most of the international flights during busy season!
It was absurd!
As if overnight, the space travel only the rich could afford suddenly became an international tour that even ordinary people could participate in.
After SpaceX, the second company that came to see Jiang Chen was not a space exploration company. The business it operated was not related to aerospace, but related to the services industry.
It was the famous Hilton Group. As early as the development of Xin's tourism project, the two sides already established a good relationship. Now, Hilton was aiming at the tourism prospects brought on by the space elevator.
The moment the summit ended, Hilton Group President Christopher Nasseta requested a meeting with Jiang Chen and proposed an invitation for cooperation.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, we are quite optimistic about the prospects of the space elevator. We have studied all related information on the space elevator published by you. We hope to be able to purchase a total area of 24,000-30,000 square meters in the gravity-free section, low gravity section and surface gravity section of the city to establish space-themed hotels."
The cost of a space station was expensive largely because of the high cost of shipping. After the completion of the space elevator, the price of orbit construction would fall substantially. Take the 50 billion US Dollars International Space Station as an example. If Celestial Trade wanted to build an identical one, the cost may be less than one percent of the budget. If the same living area were to be to be expanded on Celestial City, the cost could even be compressed to 100 million US Dollars.
Celestial City was located on the synchronous orbit, and the proposed area was much larger than Penglai City. If it were a year ago and the Hilton Hotel wanted to build a space-themed hotel with a living area of ​​more than 10,000 square meters on the synchronous orbit, they wouldn't be able to afford this even if they sold the group itself.
But now, with a mere cost of only 1.3 billion Xin New Dollars, they could complete the project.
However, before signing the contract, there was still a problem that required clarification.
It was the opinion of the UA government.
The Hilton Group was a UA company, but the UA had yet to make any statement on whether to accept the cooperation framework of Celestial Trade. Jiang Chen was not against the idea of the Hilton Hotel settling in Celestial City, but if the UA Department of Commerce decided to intervene, he was worried that the Hilton Group wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure.
After listening to Jiang Chen's concerns, Mr. Nasetta laughed and said nonchalantly, "Mr. Jiang is worrying too much, we are also a multinational corporation, even the Capitol can't stop us from making money. We have a registered company on Coro Island that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Hilton Group. The UA law can only go as far as Hawaii, and it will have no impact on our cooperation."
After hearing this, Jiang Chen also laugh and extended his right hand.
"My pleasure."
Mr. Nasetta grabbed Jiang Chen's hand and shook with force.
"My honor!"
The date of the contract signing was set on the day before Jiang Chen returned to Xin.
Early in the morning, Nasetta brought his secretary to the door and sent the contract to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen already received an electronic version of the contract, passed it back to Celestial Trade Headquarters, and conducted a three-round review by a team of professional lawyers. After getting the paper contract, Jiang Chen just scanned through it. After confirming that the contract was the same, he took a pen and signed his name.
After the contract was signed, Christopher Nasetta invited Jiang Chen to have a meal with great enthusiasm. Jiang Chen also accepted his invitation.
Having just signed a multi-billion-dollar investment project, Nasetta was naturally enthusiastic. Favors were liked by everyone, especially for the decison-maker of a large group like him. What utlimately decided whether or not he could continue in his position, to a large extent, was no longer just his ability, but his connections.
A "super-premium customer" like Jiang Chen was naturally an individual he wished to connect with.
After the meal, Christopher Nasetta gave Jiang Chen a black diamond card.
According to Nasseta, the perks of this black diamond card were more than a regular diamond card, and the card itself had never been released to the general public. Only the important customers of the Hilton Hotel received one. Customers with this black diamond card could enjoy the treatment of the presidential suite directly at the counter at any Hilton hotel in the world. Even if there was no room available, they would find a way to arrange it for you. As for everything else, all services were complimentary.
Jiang Chen accepted the black diamond card and then bid farewell before returning to the hotel he stayed at.
After taking a shower, Jiang Chen laid on the bed and began to browse through the holographic screen of his watch.
He was returning to Xin tomorrow.
Just when he began yawning and was prepared to go to bed early, a video that broke the number of views in a week caught his attention. The video was uploaded a week ago, and the time matched the first train ceremony of the space elevator passenger track...


After the nuclear war, ruins stretch across the landscape in the apocalypse.
If you accidentally survived on the wasteland, then you must be ready to face the endless hunger, ceaseless dangers, the mad zombies at night, and the peculiar mutant creatures that are the aftermath of constant radiation.
But for Jiang Chen, this place is heaven.
Mansions standing tall, luxurious cars parked on the street, high tech products and gold abandoned everywhere.
What? You were the president of a game development company before the war? You were responsible for the development of the 3D virtual reality online multiplayer game? Well, that’s great, why don’t you come work for me. Your salary is two pieces of bread a day.
iPhone? Ultra thin design? Don’t you see that the phone I invented is thinner than a condom?
Aircraft carrier? Fighter jets? Oh, I have those things as well, but they are designed for space combat.
Watch the story of Jiang Chen, who possesses the ability to travel through space and time, as he witnesses the creation of an empire stretched across space and time... 


"Eagle lander dock completed. Power and air supply connected. Control acquired."
Tomcat raised its paws, having succeeded in moving the Eagle.
"It's done, Miss Mai Dong. Tang Yue, take note. The lander is now docked outside the Hope experiment module. The hatch can now be opened."
"Roger that, Mr. Cat."
Mai Dong gently nudged the wall as her body floated away from the Crystal. She held the hatch as she changed directions to move upwards. Being in zero gravity for so long, the girl had learned how to move in a most energy-conserving manner. She was like a soft mackerel that swam through the passageway, agilely dodging the complicated control panel and electric cables.
"Let's hope the lander is reliable. I hope Cryptic Yang's girlfriend's brother's mentor's eldest nephew's seventh maternal granduncle didn't lie to him." Tang Yue pressed his arms on the table as he monitored the closed-circuit cameras in the space station. "Logically speaking, a relative this close shouldn't bullshit another relative."
"You call such relatives close?" Tomcat asked.
"Of course." Tang Yue replied. "The similarity of their DNA exceeds 99%."
"The similarity between your DNA and a Ugandan gorilla's exceeds 99% as well," Tomcat said. "So are they your maternal granduncle? Or are you their material granduncle? Tang Yue, your relatives really cover all of Africa."
Mai Dong was wearing an IVA suit as she opened the hatch and entered the Eagle lander's command module.
The command module was cramped and dark. All the seats were folded and the control panel's indicators and screens were switched off. The windows were also closed.
After the resupply mission, Mai Dong and company ignored the lander, having imagined that its historic mission was done and that it was time to retire with accolades. No one expected this veteran to be called to the front lines again to turn the tide of battle.
Mai Dong looked up to survey the area and think for a few seconds. She then found the various system controls and reached out to turn on the power supply one by one.
As a soft hum sounded, the long-silent Eagle reawakened. Red, green, and orange-yellow lights lit up as the screen showed the familiar greeting: 
"Welcome to the Eagle Lander."
Mai Dong gently swiped her hand across the console deck which was covered with a dazzling array of buttons and complicated English acronyms. In fact, the manual controls had never been used to date, but every Eagle spacecraft had such a complicated console deck. Mai Dong lifted the Commander's seat, buckled the seatbelt, and strapped herself to the seat.
The anti-glare filters slowly activated as the sunlight shone in diagonally. Gradually, the scene before Mai Dong's eyes brightened.
Estimating the temperature to have risen significantly, Mai Dong raised her IVA suit's visor and called out to Kunlun Station.
"Mr. Cat, Tang Yue, I'm currently in the Eagle lander's command module. The craft is powered and everything is in working order."
While docked to the United Space Station, power to the Eagle's batteries and computers was provided by the space station. 
"OK. We see it."
Tang Yue and Tomcat were inside Kunlun Station observing the situation. The Eagle lander's power and control system had already successfully interfaced with the space station, making it another module of the United Space Station.
The man and cat in Kunlun Station took everything seriously. The crappy computer aboard the Eagle lander had criminal records. It had bugged out twice and had nearly messed up their resupply mission.
"The Eagle's computer has an automatic landing control program. All the requirements needed for a safe entry have been written into code by the engineers on Earth. Back when you guys sat in it, there was no need for you to touch the control stick, right?" Tomcat asked.
"No." Tang Yue and Mai Dong answered in unison.
The scientific team's Commander was Old Wang. He was in absolute command and was equivalent to a plane's pilot. Once the plane took off, the pilot had the power to make any decision. Old Wang disallowed anyone from fiddling with the Eagle lander's control panel; hence, the landing was done by the computer. Everyone else just watched from the sidelines. Clearly, the designers of the lander believed that computers were more reliable than the human brain in highly-dangerous maneuvers, akin to the style of the Airbus.
Therefore, the Eagle's controls only needed a Commander and a dog.
The Commander's mission was to feed the dog while in flight.
And the dog's mission was to bite him whenever the Commander attempted to touch the control panel.
"There was a problem with the docking last time because the lander's computer made an error in determining its speed. I need to see what caused the malfunction."
"Is it a very serious problem?" Mai Dong asked.
"It might or might not be." Tomcat typed noisily on the keyboard. "If it's just damage to the rendezvous sensor, we can ignore it. If it's a bug with the computer itself… it will take some time to squash it."
"How long will it take?" Tang Yue asked.
"It's been squashed."
Tomcat shrugged its shoulders.
"Very clearly, it was a result of the rendezvous sensor. We encountered a sandstorm during the launch, and the sand piled up on the laser mirror, causing the sensor to make an error in the speed judgment," Tomcat explained. "It's a very minor malfunction, completely trivial. However, with it lacking propellant, it becomes a very lethal problem."
"It won't affect the landing, right?"
"Not at all," Tomcat replied. "The Eagle lander's computer and landing control system is fully operational. Miss Mai Dong, begin your preparations. Plan your time and we will be heading out in the next nearest window to check on the spacecraft's heat-resistant tiles."
…
Mai Dong found some time to take a shower and change her clothes.
The space station had a folding shower unit. It was made from opaque and waterproof polymers. It was inconspicuous when folded, but would appear like a two-meter-tall cylinder when unfolded. It allowed an adult to stand inside, but to ensure one's footing, one had to wear foot restraints on the floor of the shower.
In zero gravity, normal showers were impossible. The shower in the space station could only emulate the effects. It blasted water from above before sucking it up from below. It used pressure to steer the motion of the floating water blobs while also recycling all the waste-water.
Mai Dong had not showered in a very long time. It was rather troublesome showering in the space station. To prevent herself from suffocating due to the water droplets, she needed to wear goggles and a breathing mask, making her appear like a seriously ill person in an ICU.
But how could these stop a lady from her wish to shower?
"Have you showered?"
Tang Yue sat on the chair as he watched Mai Dong dry her wet hair with a towel.
"Yeah. That's right… It feels so good after a shower." Mai Dong nodded as she pulled up her work attire's collar. "I've changed. Can't you tell?"
"Is today some festive day?" Tang Yue turned his head to ask Tomcat.
"International Cat Appreciation Day, Cat Food Shopping Festival, and Cat Owners International Forum," Tomcat replied. "Do those count?"
"No."
To Tang Yue, showering was an extravagance. The water recycling efficiency in Kunlun Station was incomparable to the United Space Station. Showering expended plenty of water, so unless it was some festive occasion, Tang Yue wouldn't take a shower. The last time Tang Yue showered was on Labor Day on 1st May.
The next time he showered was likely during the Mid-Autumn Festival in October.
He wasn't going to shower for Children's Day on 1st June, since he no longer celebrated it.


Payload specialist, Tang Yue, who is a mechanical and electrical engineer by training, is left stranded on Mars when he receives news from his AI robot assistant, Tomcat, that Earth has exploded. He believes himself to be the last human in the Universe.
Turns out, he is only the last man in the Universe. Botanist, Mai Dong, had been left on the United Space Station (USS) orbiting Mars, to await Tang Yue's ascent to the USS before they make their journey back to Earth. But now, it's impossible.
Join the trio's quest for survival as they attempt to unravel the mystery of Earth's disappearance.

December 19th, 2015 15:20. Incheon International Airport. Yeongjong-do, Incheon City.

A rugged looking man with an intimidating look wore a black suit passed the customs inspection desk. Quickly walking out of the airport terminal, his intense piercing eyes scanned each person around him from behind dark sunglasses as he took out his smartphone to check something. 

- Code name FH225 confirming arrival.
- Code name AX001 target information upload complete. 
- Code name FH225 confirming receipt.

Five minutes later, a black van stopped in front of the man. He had a brief conversation, then he exited Incheon International Airport and headed to Seoul. The man in the black suit took out his smartphone again and clicked on a recently received email.


Address: XX Suyu-dong, 2nd floor. Gangbuk-gu, Seoul. 
Name: Kim In-jik
Age: 24
Occupation: Junior at Daehan University Computer Science Department
Task: Assassination and destruction of hacking files

After confirming all the information, the man in the black suit spoke succinctly to the driver.

"Grand Hyatt Hotel."

*  *  *

December 19th, 2015 16:00. Busan Port International Passenger Terminal. Busan.

An Asian man in a dark jumper jacket wearing his beanie low swiftly passed immigration. He introduced himself as a Japanese tourist and headed to the parking lot. Perhaps aware that his appearance didn't match that of a Japanese tourist, he quickly paced toward the part of the parking lot where a passenger car had been readied for him. He pressed on the car keys. 

Blip! Blip!

A black sedan sounded a short alarm and flashed brake lights to his 11 o'clock. As he briskly entered the driver's seat of the black sedan, the Asian man peeked at the rear seat. After confirming the presence of a large rectangular bag, the Asian man took out a smartphone from his pocket and sent a text.

- Code name SD887 confirming arrival.
- Code name AX001 target information upload complete.
- Code name SD887 confirming receipt.

Like his black suited counterpart at the Incheon airport, the Asian man opened his smartphone and clicked on an email he just received. 


Address: Shinara Apartments, Building 105, Unit 701. Geoje1-dong, Yeonje-gu, Busan.
Name: Kim Guk-jin, Lee Na-gyung, Kim Young-jik
Age: 55, 51, 18
Occupation: Director at Bukyung Construction Corp., Housewife, Senior at Geoje High School
Task: Assassination

After checking his email, the Asian man threw his phone down on the passenger seat, started the car, and made his way out of the parking lot.

District 51 security agents, who finally succeeded in tracking down the hackers, reported their information to Awold Harley. Harley had relayed the target information to the two Scorpion agents.

*  *  *

December 19th, 2015 18:00. Kim In-jik's apartment. Suyu-dong, Gangbuk-gu, Seoul.

Kim In-Jik asked Kang Kyoung-ho, "Hey! Aren't you going home?"

Kang Kyoung-ho looked like he had no intention of going home, as he had been hanging out and freeloading in Kim In-Jik's apartment ever since the semester had ended. 

Inexplicably giddy, Kyoung-ho mockingly replied to In-jik with a huge grin. "Nope! I'm going to live here until something fun happens. Haha."

"Weren't you set up with Eun-hye? Aren't you meeting your girlfriend?"

"Didn't I tell you? We broke up."

"Already? Well, go find something to do today. I have to meet a parent to discuss a tutoring assignment."

He had recently made an appointment with the parent of a student he tutored before his compulsory military service. She had asked for tutoring service during the winter. 

"Okay. Bring back some chicken and beer."

Although Kyung-ho seemed odious and bothersome, Kim In-Jik set out from the door with a cool reply, "Sure!"

As In-jik was getting on Subway 4 to go to Hyehwa-dong, he had an uncomfortable and ominous feeling. He dismissed it, thinking it was because he hadn't been on a subway for a long time. 

*  *  *

December 19th, 2015 22:00. Rooftop of a building. Suyu-dong, Gangbuk-gu, Seoul.

A man in black attire and a face mask was on the rooftop of a 10-story building, carefully observing a multi-family residential building 100 meters away. He had been watching for about 20 minutes. 

Shortly thereafter, the man checked his watch. He took out what looked like a telescope and slowly started scanning the building from the first floor to the rooftop on the third floor. The telescope showed transparent imagery, showing the inside of the units with 3D objects and persons in different colors. 

"Four people on the first floor. One dog. Two people on the second floor. One person on the third floor. The target is the person on the second floor."

To be exact, the target was Kim In-jik. He took out his smartphone, called In-jik, and confirmed through a heat map that it was him on the phone. He swiftly took out a number of objects from his bag and started to put them together. 

What was assembled looked like an anti-tank gun launcher, but half the size.

*  *  *

December 19th, 2015 22:00. Subway 4 platform. Hyehwa Station, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul.

In-jik, who was waiting for the train to arrive after his meeting with the parent for the tutoring job, received a phone call. "Hello?"

"When are you coming? I'm so hungry."

"You glutton. I'm at Hyehwa station. I'll be there in 30 minutes."

"Okay, cool. Oh right. Everything go well?"

"Yeah. Decided to do three days a week starting next week. More pay this time around."

"That's my boy. Working hard to feed his bro. Haha. Anyways, don't forget what I asked..."

Click! "Hello? What? You hung up on me?"

Bang!!

The entire subway station slightly shook with the sound of an explosion.

As In-jik was thinking that there must have been a gas explosion accident, a train arrived on the platform. 

*  *  *

December 19th, 2015 22:27. Exit 5, Suyu Station. Gangbuk-gu, Seoul.

In-jik was met with a big surprise coming out of exit five. The road was full of fire engines passing by with sirens blaring. There was black smoke in the direction they were headed soaring among the lights.  

That…that's the direction of my apartment.

As the thought crossed his mind, he took out his smartphone and called Kyoung-ho. All he got was a message that the phone was turned off. As the foreboding feeling grew, he started to run towards his apartment. 

*  *  *

December 19th, 2015 22:30. Near In-jik's apartment. Suyu-dong, Gangbuk-gu, Seoul.

Approaching his apartment past a line of fire engines, In-jik's eyes expanded in horror. Where there was supposed to be a three-story residence was a pile of building materials with the building destroyed and burnt without a trace. The surrounding buildings were also half-destroyed and falling apart. Firefighters were busy trying to contain the fire, telling blank-faced and lethargic In-jik to get out of the way. 

"Young man! It's dangerous here! Move away!"

In-jik couldn't hear a thing. All he heard was a hallucination of Kyoung-ho's voice crying out for help...the voice in his head grew louder. Soon enough, big tears rolled down his face and he eventually started to wail. "Kyoung-ho! No! Kyoung-ho!"

A policeman taken aback by In-jik's sudden wailing tried to sit him down and calm him down, probably thinking In-jik was a family member of one of the victims. 

In this madness a phone call came. 

"Hel…Hello."

"In-jik, it's your uncle."

"What's going on?"

"In-jik, listen carefully. Be calm."

"Yes? What is it?"

"A short while ago, there was a gas explosion accident at your home. Your father, your mother, and your younger brother Young-jik were kill..."

Thud! Plonk!

In-jik dropped his smartphone and fainted. 

"Huh? Hey young man, wake up! Officer Kim! Call an ambulance!"

A novel about the Government and its people becoming one to raising their country back up.
A militaristic style novel that implements slight futuristic technology as the plot's basis.

The airplane flew past the final seaside town and soon disappeared beyond the endless sea.
The caster switched to God's perspective. Along the flight route was a tightly packed line of parachutes.
"Once again 4AM have decided to jump at Sosnovka Military Base. Are they trying to make a repeat of the last match, going around the military base and into the wilderness?"
"Hmm… I can't be sure of that. Judging on where they're flying, I think they're heading straight toward the military base."
"In this round, there are a total of four teams that jumped on Sosnovka Island. But Team Vega from the Commonwealth of Independent States have opened their parachutes high up in the air. I think they're planning to glide over to Novorepnoye."
"Indeed. Other than 4AM, the other two teams heading toward Sosnovka Military Base are TSM from North America and Gates from Europe. Tsk, these Western teams are strong opponents! Looks like 4AM needs to be careful when they land!"
Upon seeing this scene, Chinese viewers started leaving a flurry of comments in the stream.
"Announcing the return of the Lords of Sosnovka 4 Ah Mei?"[1]
"Don't get ahead of yourselves! That was a hard-fought third place. You must secure your ranking!"
"Victory is certain when Aluka offers himself as a blood sacrifice!"[2]
"Hm? Why did Vic land outside the military base? Is 4AM planning to engage in guerilla warfare?"
On the big screen, the caster's camera was on Liu Zilang, who had landed on the road leading to the military base.
Upon landing, he immediately sprinted toward a motorcycle parked next to the road.
It was a two-wheeled motorcycle!
Sosnovka Military Base was not directly on the airplane's flight route, and by performing a straight descent on the periphery of the military base, Liu Zilang was undoubtedly faster than others.
In the meantime, TSM and Gates were still hovering in the air, diving toward the C building and the big warehouse respectively.
No players were heading towards the K building and A building. This was because the buildings were close to each other, and would have resulted in an early struggle for resources.
Even though these teams selected to jump at Sosnovka Military Base, there were not many players that would eagerly hunt for other opponents at this early stage; the same applied in random matchmaking games.
In professional games, the reason for them to jump at the military base was to acquire better resources and not to immediately pick fights. As the in-game saying went, "Leave life and death to fate, but prosperity to one's weapons."
…
"One team is freefalling toward Novorepnoye. Besides us there are two other teams at the military base," Aluka said rapidly as he gathered information while in the air, "No one's at the K Building and the five warehouses. Loot as you please. Oh, right, no one's at the police station either."
The police station was located between the C building and the Boiler Room, that is to say, between TSM and Gates.
The structure of the buildings here was similar to the K building: easy to loot with an abundance of resources.
"Then you guys go loot at the K building. I'll go sneak a bite at the police station. There are only three teams at such a big place, I can't let them have it too easy," Liu Zilang replied without a second thought after receiving Aluka's intel.
The other three members of 4AM were used to Liu Zilang's playing method of diving headfirst into danger.
In the previous match, Liu Zilang single-handedly stalled the three "monsters" of SKK and even carried the team into the top three. This alone was proof of his skills in international tournaments.
This was why upon hearing Liu Zilang's suggestion, GodV merely scrunched his forehead and replied, "Alright then. Cpt will go to the five warehouses and A Building. I'll go to the K Building and the three small warehouses. Aluka, go loot at Duga and keep watch from there. After looting we'll rendezvous, and if there's no fight here we'll leave."
GodV's plan was undeniably "loot and scoot".
The major resource points like the boiler room and C Building were best left for the other teams, while 4AM went for the lesser resource points. In that way, even if they did not manage to score some kills, they would have profited the most from the resources.
Upon receiving GodV's instructions, they immediately set out toward their destinations.
Ura! Ura! Ura![3]
Liu Zilang happily rode his motorcycle and zipped along the road past the perimeter fence. He arrived at the back door of the police station, which was situated between the C Building and the big warehouse.
It was quiet all around, with no one in sight.
Liu Zilang might be reckless, but he knew that there was no time to waste.
He parked his motorcycle and snuck in through the back door. Once inside, he spotted the 8x Scope placed between the barbed wire and resource crate.
'This journey was well worth it,' he thought to himself.
What he did not know was that while he was parking his motorcycle at the police station's back door, the metal gate at the east side of the C Building No. 3 suddenly swung open.
Someone holding an S189 crept out suspiciously, and discreetly inched his way toward the police station.
Noticing the movement of his teammate's icon, SmaK, the leader of TSM, who was still at C Building No. 1, frowned slightly. "Hey partner, heading to the police station? I thought I saw a vehicle entering there."
"I know, that guy rode in with a motorcycle. I don't think he's picked up a gun yet." Viss, who was wielding a shotgun, smiled as he looked at the police station in front of him. "Stealing under my nose? I'd better teach him a lesson."
Hearing that the opponent was unarmed, SmaK relaxed slightly. Still, he warned, "OK, looks like a boor. I'll cover you just in case."
In the last match, they were eliminated by SKK not too long after the start of the match. Their ranking was near the bottom of the leaderboard.
They knew that this international tournament had a modified scoring system, with more emphasis on kill count.
This was why TSM elected to jump at Sosnovka. They could start fighting as soon as possible.
If they were able to fight, they would rather deliver the first strike.
…
Level three military vest!
Level three backpack!
Med kit!
Two first aid kits and an energy drink!
…
Examining the items on the floor, Liu Zilang felt that he would have enough recovery items to last for the rest of the match.
'But give me a f*cking gun, dammit!'
He saw the front door which he had not yet looted. He prayed to himself that there would be a gun there.
If he could loot an M16, and a KAR98K, that would be the perfect opening.
On many occasions, life would not be perfect.
Just as Liu Zilang started walking, a flurry of footsteps came from the side room of the police station.
The footsteps were speedy and careless, perhaps even be a little audacious, like a butcher wielding a cleaver on his way to slaughter a pig.
'Hold on! So I'm a pig now?'
Liu Zilang was still mentally processing the turn of events when someone appeared at the front door.
The two of them locked eyes!
Bang!
The opponent was still taking aim when Liu Zilang reacted by diving behind the barbed wire.
SmaK heard the gunshot and was alarmed. "What happened? A fight?"
"Haha, don't worry, this kid is without a gun!" Viss grinned.
He saw Liu Zilang escaping in panic among the barbed wire, and licked his lips before cracking a wicked sneer.
'I'm coming, baby!'

Denzel respected Phyllis deeply after the dinner party with Amelia's family. He realised she wasn't only a smart woman but she was graceful, generous and visionary and that's what he was looking for in his woman so he couldn't love her less. They had become one of the most popular couples in town and people admired them for her they maintained their relationship.

 Phyllis started working as the Public Relations Officer for Richards International, the business conglomerates of Amelia's father. She was in the same building with Amelia but different offices yet they became very good friends. Amelia took time to give Phyllis on the job training not only as a Public Relations Officer but in many other capacities as well because she saw that Phyllis was not only smart but she was industrious and trustworthy as well. Phyllis was a woman of integrity and therefore won the admiration of her colleagues and bosses as well as their clients and partners. Amelia became very good friends with Phyllis and they spent a lot of time together after work.

 Denzel had convinced Phyllis to move in with him so they were living together though they were neither married nor engaged. She took charge of the house by cooking, cleaning and doing laundry. She was able to manage his house as well as her official responsibilities with excellence. She mostly traveled to the other branches of their company to gather information and other things that would keep her abreast with the happenings in Richards International to enable her work effectively and efficiently.

On one Tuesday afternoon as she was returning from one of her numerous trips, their company's car collided into a tipper truck which took the life of the driver and put her into a life threatening situation as she sustained serious injuries and went into coma as well. She was rushed to the hospital by a man that was plying the road and saw that she was in a critical condition. The contact on her speed dial was Denzel so the hospital called him so that he could rush to the hospital immediately. Denzel was shaken up by the news and therefore one of his colleagues offered to drive him to the hospital to protect him from a possible accident due to his mood.

  He was asked to wait for the doctor in charge since he was in the theatre operating on Phyllis. He waited for close to two hours before the he saw her on a stretcher being pushed to the intensive care unit of the hospital. The doctor then called him to his office and gave him an update on Phyllis. The doctor told him that he was able to save the baby and the mother. That actually got Denzel confused so he told the doctor he was talking about a wrong patient since Phyllis wasn't pregnant but the doctor told him to relax and showed a scan which was in Phyllis' hospital folder to him. He was surprised as he saw the information on the folder was Phyllis' and was even more shocked when he realised the pregnancy was five months, three days old.

 He requested to see her but the doctor asked him to wear protective clothing that will be provided by the hospital before he could see her so that she will be prevented from infections. The doctor also told him that she was in coma and he almost collapsed after hearing that bit the doctor held him and put him back on his chair for sometime before he allowed him to see her. He sat on his bed, held her hands and poured his heart to her even though she couldn't hear him. He spoke about how much he missed her and how empty his life is going to be without her presence in the house. He also rubbed his hands on her belly to feel his baby and talk to him as well.

 Amelia rushed to the hospital as soon as she heard about the accident in the news. She went started to the doctor in charge of Phyllis' treatment and promised him that Richards International was going to pay for Phyllis' treatment and therefore urged the doctor to give her the best of treatments since money wasn't a problem. She later went to see Phyllis and saw Denzel in there. She also broke down when he saw her lying helpless on the bed covered in bandages. She spoke to Denzel for sometime and asked him if the accident affected her pregnancy. He was surprised and asked her how she knew about the pregnancy since he wasn't even aware of it until the accident. She told him  she had be in the known for about a period of four months and that she had been escorting her to her antenatal. Denzel was surprised and angry with her for keeping it from him but she apologised and told him that Phyllis had made her promise not to tell him because she was afraid of how he would take it. He quietly looked at Phyllis and sat on the bed. He really wanted to fight with her for keeping the pregnancy from him but he couldn't do so because she was in coma and that even made him miss her more.

 The doctor requested they leave and come back the next day but Denzel didn't want to. He struggled with the doctor for sometime before he  agreed to leave with Amelia because his colleague had already left after checking up on Phyllis. Amelia dropped him off at his house and warmed soup for him to drink before she left. After drinking the soup, he took his shower and drank whiskey to help him wallow in his sorrow before he went to bed. He couldn't sleep as he kept tossing in his bed with thoughts of Phyllis and his baby flooding his mind. He wept till he fell asleep.

 Early the next morning, as he was preparing to leave for the hospital, Amelia called him to meet him at the police station because she had been called to go to the station and she wanted to go with him since Phyllis was his girlfriend. He got to the police station in twenty-three minutes after the call. Amelia was already there when he got there so they quickly went to the Commander's office. They were told that, the police suspected that someone intentionally tried to murder Phyllis since the brakes of the car were tempered with and therefore the police was launching an investigation into her accident. Denzel and Amelia were shaken and confused that someone would want Phyllis dead.

The hospital called Denzel to the hospital as they were leaving the police station so he went with Amelia. Phyllis had woken up from the coma but was still very weak and she couldn't stop calling his name. She couldn't control her tears when she saw him but Denzel held her hands and wiped her tears while convincing her to stop crying. He told her how he missed her and how lobely he felt especially in the night when he slept alone in the bed. The doctor requested Phyllis stayed in the hospital for few more days so that they could monitor her and the baby and Denzel agreed.

 She was discharged from the hospital a week after and was asked to stay at home without doing any hard work for a month. She was to go for review in a month's time for her to be examined by the doctor before she could go back to work. She stayed home while Amelia and Denzel took turns to attend to her. Though she missed working, she enjoyed their attention and company. The police came to her in the house to ask her questions on her accident since they were investigating a murder attempt on her life. She responded to the questions they asked her but gave them no clue on who she thought wanted her dead because she wasn't sure. She also wanted to do her own investigations before she would involve the police because she suspected a very influential man who she knew was in bed with the police and other powerful people in their city.

 Amelia gave her a leave after she recovered and they both travelled to Dubai so that Phyllis would enjoy herself while she took a proper rest. The day before they left, Denzel fucked her like he's never done though he was gentle with her. He didn't allow her do any work on bed they day, he did everything to make her enjoy him. He sucked her breasts and licked her vagina. He also fingered her for sometime and then lied beside her as he held his penis and inserted it in her vagina. He held his penis as he went in and out of her vagina. He did that until they both came. Denzel prepared food for them to eat while they had a long chat concerning their baby and their relationship. Denzel couldn't be any happier when she told him she was expecting a girl because he's always wanted a girl for a first born.

 Denzel drove them to the Airport on the day they were leaving. He saw that they were being followed by an unusual car. He therefore parked at a gas station and called the police for an escort to the Airport. They said their goodbyes with lots of hugs and kisses before they left. The police decided to give Denzel police protection till they're done with the their investigations while he moves to a hotel or an apartment that's unknown to anyone so he moved to live with a friend at the outskirts of town.

She then decided to pursue love until she finds her own.

Lu Xiangdong looked back and saw a few police cars chasing after his car. Su Mianmian refused to leave and stood in front of Liao Xiaoying's body. A police officer approached her and the two of them said something Then, she followed the police officer into the police car.
He originally intended to distract the police, but when he saw Su Mianmian get into the police car, he had no choice but to turn the car around.
Soon, his car was surrounded by the police car. Surrounded.
Police station
Su Mianmian kept her head down. She placed her hands on the table and remained silent.
A young policeman who was in charge of interrogating her knocked on the table impatiently. "Miss, please cooperate and give a brief description of the situation. I need to make a record here. "
"I don't know. " She repeated this sentence countless times. She shook her head and did not mention anything about the car accident.
The young policeman was obviously a newcomer. He had a bad temper. He threw his pen aside and was about to teach someone a lesson when someone knocked on the door of the interrogation room. He got up to open the door, but it was their leader who came in.
"Xiao Zhang, come here for a moment. " The man, who was higher than the young policeman, waved at him and leaned towards the man.
"leader, what's the matter? "
The man leaned down and whispered, "the person you're interrogating has a special identity. Let her go first. "
Xiao Zhang frowned and asked, "who is this woman? "
"It's hard to say. Anyway, the higher-ups have given orders. We'll do things according to the rules. Go quickly. " The man patted Xiao Zhang's shoulder, then smiled at Su Mianmian and left.
Xiao Zhang rubbed his head and walked back. He tidied up the documents on the table and said to her, "you can go now. "
Su Mianmian looked up at him and asked, "why? "
"Do you want to stay here? " Xiao Zhang snorted and turned to leave. She hurriedly called out to him, "is Lu Xiangdong also caught? "
"Lu Xiangdong? " The young policeman chewed on these words carefully and then shook his head. "I'm not sure. "
Su Mianmian was worried about Lu Xiangdong's situation. Not long after Xiao Zhang left, she also left the interrogation room in a hurry. However, she did not leave the police station immediately. Instead, she went around to look for Lu Xiangdong's whereabouts.
In fact, after Lu Xiangdong was surrounded by police cars, when he pushed open the car door and got out, the few policemen beside him immediately became polite when they saw him.
At this moment, although Lu Xiangdong was at the police station, he was in the VIP lounge. The director was rushing over. On his way here, he heard from his subordinates that the president of NEPC International Airlines had entered the police station. He wondered if his subordinates had made a mistake How could the president of NEPC international airlines be involved in a murder case.
It had only been a few minutes, but Lu Xiangdong couldn't sit still anymore. He had already sent someone to let Su Mianmian leave. He didn't know how she was doing now.
Su Mianmian thought with her toes. It was Lu Xiangdong who used his connections to get her out. Since he could find a way to get her out, there must be a way to help him get away with it.
She begged a policeman outside to take her to see Lu Xiangdong, but the policeman kept shaking his head and told her to hurry home.
She wouldn't leave until she saw Lu Xiangdong.
"Please, please make it easy for me. Let me see my husband. " Su Mianmian swore that she had never begged anyone in her life.
"Miss Su, I advise you to go back first. Even if you see President Lu, you may not be able to go back with him. " The policeman shook his head.
"Why? He has nothing to do with this case. Please let him go. " Su Mianmian became anxious.
The policeman was in pain from her arrest. He couldn't help but frown and say, "a gentleman commits the same crime as a commoner. Moreover, this case is still under investigation. President Lu can't go home with you for the time being. "
Su Mianmian swallowed her saliva and said with difficulty, "then how long will you have to wait? How long will you have to solve the case? He can't stay here forever! "
"Miss Su, please calm down. I'll have to trouble you to go out now. If you continue to act like this, I can get someone to kick you out. " The policeman gave a look to his men and dragged her out.
At this moment, a person walked in from the police station. That person looked very pale. He saw Su Mianmian at a glance and cried out emotionally "Miss Su, how did my daughter suddenly die? When I handed her over to you, she was still fine. How did she die in the blink of an eye? ! "
Su Mianmian's entire body trembled. She looked at the person who came and said nervously, "I'm sorry. There was a car accident. I didn't protect her well. I'm very sorry. "
"I don't want to listen to this nonsense. Have you found the murderer who killed my daughter? " Liao Xing's gaze was completely as if he wanted to eat someone.
If he knew that the person who killed his daughter was Qi Chuyan, would he kill Qi Chuyan with one slap Su Mianmian was so scared that she didn't dare to reply.
"SPEAK! Who is the murderer who killed my daughter? WHO KILLED MY DAUGHTER! " Liao Xing walked in front of her and shook her shoulder emotionally. Su Mianmian was dizzy from his shaking.
"Director Liao, let Miss Su go first. Your daughter's case is still under investigation. " The policeman next to him interrupted him at the right time and took the opportunity to save Su Mianmian. Then, he smiled at him apologetically.
Liao Xing was very angry and sad. His only daughter died just like that. No matter what, he had to find the murderer and avenge his daughter.
Su Mianmian clutched her wildly beating chest. Her heart was beating abnormally fast.
"investigate, investigate immediately. I want the results. " Liao Xing waved his hand and sat down on the SOFA, lighting a cigarette for himself.
The few police officers could not afford to offend this person, so they quickly advised Su Mianmian to leave first.
Su Mianmian felt very guilty. After all, the person had been handed over to her. Now that the person was gone, she felt guilty.
"Director Liao, " she called out dryly.
Liao Xing ignored her. Instead, he lowered his head and continued to smoke.
"Director Liao, I know you hate me now and hate that I didn't take good care of your daughter, but... "
"Shut up. Don't mention my daughter in front of me anymore. From now on, my surname, Liao, has nothing to do with your surname, Su. You can leave now! " He threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it.
Su Mianmian closed her eyes, her heart aching. "I'm sorry. Whether you accept my apology or not, I should apologize to you. I'm sorry to you, I'm sorry to Yingying. "
"I said, don't mention my daughter anymore! " Liao Xing yelled at her in anger.
"What right do you have to yell at her? If you had the ability, you wouldn't have let my woman take care of your daughter. " Lu Xiangdong was coming out with the bureau chief when he happened to see Su Mianmian being bullied. He couldn't help but stand up for her.
"What did you say? ''LiaooXingg threw the cigarette butt away, looking like he was going to beat upLuuXiangdongg.
Su Mianmian quickly stood in front of Lu Xiangdong and said in a flattering manner, "director Liao, he's in a bad mood. Don't pay attention to him. "
Lu Xiangdong pulled her away and said to Liao Xing in a neutral tone, "Am I wrong? My wife has no obligation to help you look after your daughter. Now that something has happened, it's her fault? Who could have predicted that this car accident would happen? Could you have predicted that your daughter would die in a car accident? "
Su Mianmian looked nervously at Liao Xing, and Liao Xing clenched his fists, looking like he was ready to fight to the death at any moment.
"Get lost, all of you get lost! My daughter has nothing to do with the two of you! " Liao Xing's face was cold as he turned his back to them.
The policeman beside him could not help but interject, "CEO Lu is currently under investigation and can not leave for the time being. If there's nothing else, you can leave the police station now! "
Liao Xing turned around and punched the policeman in the face. Then, he grabbed his uniform and pushed him against the wall. He roared, "who do you think you are! You dare to order me around here? Do you believe that I will break your legs? ! "
The policeman covered his injured face and said through gritted teeth, "If you don't let go, I can sue you for assaulting a police officer. "
"Sue me! I'm really pissed off right now. "
The bureau chief who had been silent all this time finally spoke.
"Liao Xing, this is a police station after all. As the CEO, you should pay attention to your identity. I'm ordering you, as the bureau chief, to stop all acts of violence immediately. "
Liao Xing pulled the police officer off the wall and threw him at the bureau chief's feet. He shrugged his shoulders and laughed loudly "Bureau chief, I'm telling you, you better find the murderer of my daughter within two days. Otherwise, I will have your police station razed to the ground. "
The chief's face was dark as he glared at Liao Xing. Liao Xing swaggered out of the police station.
"Director Lu, this way please. " The chief immediately changed his expression and made an inviting gesture to Lu Xiangdong.
Before he left, he pulled Su Mianmian to the side and whispered a few words to her before letting her leave first.
Su Mianmian was worried that he would stay at the police station.
"Are you really going to be okay? "
"Yes, trust me. Go back quickly. " There were many people here. It was inconvenient for him to talk too much with her to avoid arousing suspicion.
Su Mianmian nodded. She could only go back and wait for his news. She hoped that his method would really work.
She took a taxi back alone. When she got out of the car, she saw a person standing in front of the villa. That person was Qi Chuyan. Qi Chuyan ran towards her and held her hand while crying.
"Chengwu Su, how is brother Xiang Dong? Why didn't he come back with you? "
Su Mianmian coldly shook off her hand. Her expression was slightly disgusted.
"How would I know? You were the one who sent him to the police station. Now you have the nerve to ask me. If you ask me, who will I ask? "
"I know I'm the one who let brother Xiang Dong down, but I don't dare to go out these few days! Please do me a favor and tell me. " She shamelessly grabbed Su Mianmian's hand again and pleaded.

He was the youngest captain on an international flight route. He was calm, wise, and handsome
Under the bed, his messy clothes were scattered all over the ground.
"GET LOST! " She kicked him.
"Baby, didn't you say you were hungry? I was just obeying your wishes... " he smiled evilly and grabbed the little foot that was flying towards him.
She was so angry that she was speechless, but his eyes were full of love.

He was the youngest and most handsome captain. At the same time, he was also the beloved son of the Chairman of NEPC International Airlines. With his own abilities, he was promoted from a flight attendant to a captain. He was only thirty years old.
She was a flight attendant on the Far Eastern Airlines.
They hid the fact that they were married and lived a life of collusion.
* * * * 
The flight attendants were all afraid of him. Those who did not know the truth even asked her to fly with him.
"I'm not going... " she refused desperately.
That colleague looked at her pitifully. "Why? Are you not going to help me? "
"You're married, and I'm not. WHO'S SAFER? " She said shamelessly, going against her conscience. After saying that, she regretted it.
"If you're not married, then you'll lie on the same bed with me every night. Are you a mistress? "
That night, she was chased out of the bedroom and slept on the sofa for the whole night.
If I love you, I won't be like a climbing kaleidoscope, using your tall branches to show off.

What Is Time? A Simple Explanation
Time is familiar to everyone, yet hard to define and understand. Science, philosophy, religion, and the arts have different definitions of time, but the system of measuring it is relatively consistent.

Clocks are based on seconds, minutes, and hours. While the basis for these units has changed throughout history, they trace their roots back to ancient Sumeria. The modern international unit of time, the second, is defined by the electronic transition of the cesium atom. But what, exactly, is time?

Scientific Definition



 Time is a measurement of the progression of events. 

Physicists define time as the progression of events from the past to the present into the future. Basically, if a system is unchanging, it is timeless. Time can be considered to be the fourth dimension of reality, used to describe events in three-dimensional space. It is not something we can see, touch, or taste, but we can measure its passage.


The Arrow of Time

 The arrow of time means time moves from the past into the future, not in the other direction.

Physics equations work equally well whether time is moving forward into the future (positive time) or backward into the past (negative time.) However, time in the natural world has one direction, called the arrow of time. The question of why time is irreversible is one of the biggest unresolved questions in science.

One explanation is that the natural world follows the laws of thermodynamics. The second law of thermodynamics states that within a closed system, the entropy of the system remains constant or increases. If the universe is considered to be a closed system, its entropy (degree of disorder) can never decrease. In other words, the universe cannot return to exactly the same state in which it was at an earlier point. Time cannot move backward.


Time Dilation

In classical mechanics, time is the same everywhere. Synchronized clocks remain in agreement. Yet we know from Einstein's special and general relativity that time is relative. It depends on the frame of reference of an observer. This can result in time dilation, where the time between events becomes longer (dilated) the closer one travels to the speed of light. Moving clocks run more slowly than stationary clocks, with the effect becoming more pronounced as the moving clock approaches light speed. Clocks in jets or in orbit record time more slowly than those on Earth, muon particles decay more slowly when falling, and the Michelson-Morley experimentconfirmed length contraction and time dilation.

Time Travel

Time travel means moving forward or backward to different points in time, much like you might move between different points in space. Jumping forward in time occurs in nature. Astronauts on the International Space Station jump forward in time when they return to Earth and its slower movement relative to the station.

The idea of traveling back in time, however, poses problems. One issue is causality or cause and effect. Moving back in time could cause a temporal paradox. The "grandfather paradox" is a classic example. According to the paradox, if you travel back in time and kill your grandfather before your mother or father were born, you could prevent your own birth. Many physicists believe time travel to the past is impossible, but there are solutions to a temporal paradox
The human brain is equipped to track time. The suprachiasmatic nuclei of the brain is the region responsible for daily or circadian rhythms. But neurotransmitters and drugs affect time perceptions. Chemicals that excite neurons so they fire more quickly than normal speed up time, while decreased neuron firing slows down time perception. Basically, when time seems to speed up, the brain distinguishes more events within an interval. In this respect, time truly does seem to fly when one is having fun.

Time seems to slow down during emergencies or danger. Scientists at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston say the brain doesn't actually speed up, but the amygdala becomes more active. The amygdala is the region of the brain that makes memories. As more memories form, time seems drawn out.

The same phenomenon explains why older people seem to perceive time as moving faster than when they were younger. Psychologists believe the brain forms more memories of new experiences than of familiar ones. Since fewer new memories are built later in life, time seems to pass more quickly.
