A deafening silence reverberated in the narrow room.
The muffled voice on the other end of the phone became a thread that allowed Lin Sanjiu to hang up. Lin Sanjiu was suddenly afraid to hang up the phone. Regardless of what Han Jun had done and whether he had the ability or not, he was the only person in this world who could understand her situation. If she hung up the phone, she was afraid that she would be swallowed by this silent world.
"Do you want to go back?" Han Jun let out a bitter laugh. "Do you still want to go back to that precarious, bumpy world?"
"I have to go back," Lin Sanjiu said slowly.
"Then I don't have to persuade you. Everyone has their own fate." He tried to make a joke. "Looks like you've been doing pretty well in the past."
Lin Sanjiu didn't laugh.
"Yes, if I could choose …" Han Jun's voice trailed off. He didn't finish his sentence. "When I was drifting in this apocalyptic world, all I wanted was to settle down and settle down. Now that I've settled down, I left my wife at home and sat alone in a car. I might not be able to show my face in this place anymore. Tell me, what's going on? "
Lin Sanjiu's mind was buzzing, so she didn't hear a single word of his exclamation.
"You're not stupid. Since you want to go back, you must have thought of the only way."
Following Han Jun's words, she felt Wu Lun, who was beside her, suddenly lift his head.
"You mean …" Lin Sanjiu felt as if there was a steel wire around her throat that was tightening. "You want this world to …"
Han Jun remained silent. He didn't answer her. Even though he had abandoned his newly married wife and wanted to escape to a faraway place, he still didn't want his wife to face such a future.
Wu Lun poked her elbow. Lin Sanjiu looked up and saw that he was mouthing a question. The girl was very sensitive. Even though she didn't understand most of their conversation, she immediately realized that the "only way" was something serious.
"Since … since someone came to this world through random transmission, it means that this world is also part of the apocalyptic world system. It is also one of the human worlds that will face … face destruction sooner or later. There's something here that can destroy the world. "
Lin Sanjiu lowered her head. She didn't know if she was talking to Wu Lun, Han Jun, or herself. "There might be some kind of force that is suppressing it, suppressing this change. That's why the world that should have been destroyed continued to exist for so long. If the apocalypse comes to this place … "
There was no need to finish this sentence.
Wu Lun's hand slid down her arm.
"You can't do it," said Hancock, abruptly. "I advise you not to do it. You are definitely not the first evolver to think like that. Even I have had the same thought. But now, the world was still operating steadily … What did this mean? This meant that just one or two evolvers would not be able to topple such a huge and stable world. Humans are creatures with strong adaptability. Since we can even adapt to the bizarre and dazzling apocalyptic world, it is even easier to adapt to this kind of modern society which is the norm. I advise you to accept reality as soon as possible, get some money, and live a safe and stable life. Besides … there are six to seven billion people in this world. Think about it. "
After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Lin Sanjiu was drowned by the surging, true silence. She only realized that she wasn't really suffocating when she heard her own breathing. She grabbed Wu Lun's arm and held it tightly. Only then did she feel her chest gradually calm down.
"Ouch!" Wu Lun couldn't pull his arm away. "You —"
Lin Sanjiu immediately let go of his arm and apologized, "I'm sorry."
Wu Lun didn't say anything. He lowered his eyes and rubbed his wrist.
"It's impossible," Lin Sanjiu thought to herself as she looked at Wu Lun silently. It meant that the hot noodle soup, the cosmetics counter, and her mother that the girl in front of her was familiar with would be destroyed along with the human society. There were countless girls like her in the world. It was impossible for her to do it.
However, if she didn't return to the apocalyptic world, she knew that she wouldn't be able to survive.
She had long noticed that there was something wrong with her. No one would risk their life and put their lives on the line. She thought that she had walked out of the shadow of losing her parents, but the shadow had long become a part of her. It filled up her empty body, waiting for the moment to swallow her whole.
"It won't happen. Don't worry," Lin Sanjiu consoled her softly, "Your world will be fine. It won't usher in the apocalypse."
Wu Lun clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He only loosened his grip when he heard Lin Sanjiu's words.
"Besides, didn't you say that you don't believe in the apocalypse?" Lin Sanjiu smiled bitterly.
"I … I still have my doubts," Wu Lun smoothed his wrinkled pajama pants, "I just … look at the problem with a doubtful but not a negative gaze."
After a while, probably because Lin Sanjiu didn't say anything, Wu Lun asked softly, "Then … what do you plan to do now? Do you want to go home only when the world ends? "
"Even if someone is looking for me, I doubt that person will be able to find me here," Lin Sanjiu said as she took out the thick stack of visas that her grand prize gave her. None of them worked, and they were all wasted after the teleportation. Her grand prize hoped that she could go to the Twelve Worlds Centrum. It was written clearly on each of the visas, but she still ended up here. It was a modern society in an apocalyptic world that no one knew about.
No, her grand prize would do everything he could to find her. Anyone would give up after searching for a while, but not her grand prize. Lin Sanjiu straightened her back when she thought of this. She had to be sure that her grand prize was on his way to find her. She had to think of a way to send him a message, even if it was just a message.
This world without the internet was like a giant hand that blocked all her ideas. However, there were all kinds of evolved abilities and special items. Even if she did not have a solution, it did not mean that others would not have a solution. Even if others did not have a solution, they might be able to find a solution when they worked together.
Just as Silvan said, the posthumans who were tossed here were like grains of loose sand. If they struggled on their own, they would sink into the silent river, just like Han Jun. In that case, her priority now was to find other posthumans.
"At the end of the day," Lin Sanjiu laughed bitterly again. "I still have to think of a way to earn money and advertise."
