Chapter 1072 -9: The Jade Breaks, the Tile Remains Whole_2
I survived, the Space-Time Butterfly Effect occurred, and the world line continued to rise, stabilizing at 0.0000168.
There is one thing I’m not quite sure about.
What exactly caused the world line to climb back to this level, was it the impact of [a certain event], or the butterfly effect of my own survival… it’s no longer possible to distinguish and verify them now.
Perhaps, it was the result of both events together.
Dwelling on this matter now is meaningless.
0.0000168, this is a brand-new world line that I have never experienced before.
0.0000000, is the Fourth Dreamland;
0.0000042, is the Fifth Dreamland;
0.0000084, is the Sixth Dreamland;
0.0000336, is the Seventh Dreamland;
So the current 0.0000168 world line naturally corresponds to the unknown and unexplored Eighth Dreamland.
By now, the reasons for the two world line transitions have been completely clarified.
Then.
Assassin No. 17, who appeared in the Sixth and Seventh Dreamlands, I now have a general understanding of what happened.
It’s clear that No. 17 is extremely Jealous of Lin Yuxi for having a name; she herself is also deeply Obsessed with the concept of names.
In the Seventh Dreamland, when Lin Xian and the blue-eyed village chief went hunting, I also confirmed her Obsession through her own words.
According to the original history.
Assassin No. 17 not only beheaded herself, she most likely killed Lin Yuxi as well, then took possession of Lin Yuxi’s most precious Family Portrait, using Yan Qiaoqiao’s name to sleep in the Hibernation Pod.
As for why…
She didn’t use the properties of the Entangled State Space-Time Particle to return directly to the Future World, back to the Space-Time Police Bureau?
Lin Xian speculates, there are two possibilities:
1. After Assassin No. 17 came through time and killed both herself and Lin Yuxi, due to some unforeseen events, the world line underwent a transition. Hence, the -0.0000042 world line she was on and the future of the Space-Time Police Bureau both vanished, leaving her with no way to return. She could only return to the future by taking a Hibernation Pod.
This possibility is a bit illogical.

2. In Assassin No. 17’s view, the Obsession with having a name outweighed all other honors and medals. She would even prefer to abandon her original identity and memory, including completely forgetting the code name No. 17… so she could start a completely new life with the name Yan Qiaoqiao.
Lin Xian feels that this possibility is more likely.
After all…
This No. 17 blue-eyed girl truly has an incredibly stubborn Obsession with names, one that even centuries of hibernation couldn’t erase.
Moreover, if she didn’t completely forget she was No. 17, she would likely not be able to deceive herself into accepting the name Yan Qiaoqiao.
But if she were to undergo complete Amnesia through the Hibernation Pod, then everything would fall into place naturally.
Upon her awakening.
Everyone would think her name is Yan Qiaoqiao, and they would naturally address her as Yan Qiaoqiao, so she would naturally believe she is Yan Qiaoqiao, and that this is her name.
In the Seventh Dreamland, when Lin Xian and No. 17 blue-eyed village chief went hunting, he once asked her:
“Are you happy with your life now?”
The blue-eyed village chief replied without hesitation:
“The ten or so years after waking up from hibernation were the happiest and most blissful years of my life… Even though I don’t have the previous memories, I still believe these were my happiest years.”
The blue-eyed village chief stated that she does not care about the past, memories, or familial love; she only cares about the name.
When others call her Yan Qiaoqiao, call her Village Chief Yan, she can feel her existence and fulfill the duties of the village chief with devotion.
Sigh.
Thinking of this, Lin Xian couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
In fact.
Whether it was Lin Yuxi who had once wanted to carry out filicide to prove her point, or No. 17 who later obediently carried out her orders with ruthlessness…
Essentially, they were not bad kids.
Lin Xian truly felt this way.
Even though both of them had once wanted to kill him, Lin Xian was clear that it was all because Copernicus had brainwashed them and instilled incorrect ideologies in them.
People are inherently good at birth.
What more for these orphaned children?
After losing her memory, Lin Yuxi became Yan Qiaoqiao, well-behaved, obedient, and sensible.
After amnesia, No. 17 became the blue-eyed village chief, kind-hearted, dedicated, and respected by all.
They were both inherently good children.
They were both deserving of a happy life.
But they were influenced by evildoers.
Yes.
The mastermind behind all this, the prime culprit, is—
[Copernicus]!
Thinking of this, Lin Xian took a deep breath and clenched his fists.
Copernicus is the truly unforgivable criminal.
Just as Lin Xian promised Zhao Yingjun before he came…
If he does not personally kill Copernicus, to avenge his deceased friends and family… he would be unworthy of being a father, unworthy of being human!
For the so-called worthy causes, for the so-called beautiful future, Copernicus killed the innocent and led others into sin. No matter how many reasons there are, Lin Xian believes he is wrong, deserving of death.
Up until today.
The primary purpose for Lin Xian joining the Genius Club was to understand the secrets of the Millennium Stakes, to break this rule, and to save Chu Anqing.
But now.
He has an equally important and clearer goal—
[To kill Copernicus! Uncover all the mysteries, and create a truly beautiful future for all the children, all the adults, all the humans on Earth!]
“What the other members of the Genius Club are planning remains unclear,” Lin Xian thought to himself:
“But Copernicus… must die!”
Perhaps because Copernicus was one of the earliest to join the Genius Club, he could directly ask Einstein questions and learned the most about intelligence and the truth, which is why he has very strong power to control the world and history.
