01310 Diary (3)(2/2)
She suddenly woke up.
All of this is true…
It’s true that the sun disappeared, it’s true that the whole world was turned upside down... It’s true that when the warriors of the country blew up the Pacific Rim nuclear power system, she was still talking and laughing with her colleagues in the shelter in Xiongan District... Crossing the Sea of Japan
It’s true to arrive in Neo-Tokyo City…it’s true to witness hundreds of thousands of people freezing to death in Vault 03…
Maybe... only one thing is false.
That's her calmness...it's fake...
Even in the arms of the person closest to her, Hanako could feel that her calmness was fake and fake.
She was frightened.
After an unknown amount of time, Hanako fell into a deep sleep.
Liang Qiuru didn't know how many days and nights the child had not slept before putting her back on the bed.
Her brows didn't even relax at that time, and whenever Liang Qiuru stood up, Huazi would moan uneasily like she did when she was a child.
In desperation, Liang Qiuru had no choice but to suspend her work, took off her coat and went to bed. She held her daughter in her arms and opened the diary again while staying with her.

Time: November 9, 2125
It's a sunny day. I didn't plan to write this diary because the starry sky outside is so beautiful, but my time is limited. I thought about it and finally decided not to be willful.
This day was very fulfilling. Professor Liu and I went to the ruins again in the morning. We found many exquisite murals in the ruins. This should be a very happy thing. After all, our exploration has paid off.
But slowly, we discovered that these murals did not come from the same period, or... they should not have appeared in the same place.
At that moment, Professor Liu and I both thought that this site might be the residence of a collector from a civilization that had once been glorious. That collector must have collected many older things here.
This is the first time we have reached an agreement. Of course, I am not saying that Professor Liu and I can't get along. In fact, we are very compatible. Of course, archaeological exploration cannot be the same thing. It is a game for politicians and does not belong to us.
After we came back, we shared our findings with Lao Yan and the others.
Everyone is very happy, well...
Yes... I can go home in another month. Maybe I am happiest about this all the time. Haha, I feel a bit irresponsible.

I……
I was wrong.
Professor Liu and I were both wrong.
Xiaozha's guess was right. Those murals were too "young" and even overlapped with our civilization.
But those ruins are too old?
I don't know what I'm writing or recording.
It just feels...like...there are more advanced equipment and more intuitive ways to preserve my thoughts and emotions, but I still choose to keep a diary.
A guy who lived in an era very close to us, he got there first and then desecrated this ancient ruins in his own way.
Okay, maybe blasphemy is a bit strong.
Yes... blasphemy...
Who would leave traces of different eras in a site that is 30 million years old?
…
The time is 2125...probably November.
It is raining again.
This is already the third heavy rain this month.
The entire ruins were submerged, especially the pit.
There must be something valuable down there...but it's flooded now.
Professor Liu had a quarrel with Lao Yan over this matter. I guess if they weren't academics, they might have started fighting.
I'm sick and have a slight fever.
Maybe it's because of the weather, or maybe...heh...I didn't tell them that I went down quietly.
There was a space down there for me to rest, but I didn't have the courage to go deeper.
Because I saw that thing again.
I don't know what it is... It looks like a mummy, or some strange statues... I didn't dare to tell them that they are atheists, but what is God?
I have always felt that whether it is God or science, it is just a kind of human thinking that belongs to that era.
Just like a while ago, I heard that a team in Africa destroyed a local temple that was said to suppress demons, and they also had conflicts with the locals.
But Lawns, who was leading the team, had a gun in his hand. He was serving the New American League and it was impossible to reason with the aborigines.
What's more, there is a complete believer in science like Mo Xiao in the team?
They opened the temple.
Unexpectedly, there is a very ancient animal cemetery underneath the temple. The special environmental structure of that place made the bacteria in the cemetery fat and strong!
That night the entire team fell ill…
Yes...the ancient ancestors didn't understand science, and they couldn't use scientific terms to define the categories of bacteria.
But they know those things are dirty and murderous, so they call them devils!
The ancestors' priests built a temple to suppress them in a way that seems stupid to modern people.
Seal the only outlet for bacteria to ensure the safety of local people... What a scientific approach...
But what era is this... Science has become increasingly superstitious, giving birth to a large number of believers, but no one wants to believe in theology... Maybe it is science itself.
Haha...why am I writing this? I won't tell them anyway.
...My head hurts...I really want to dive down, to the deepest place, there must be the answer I most want to get.
…
The time is January 1, 2125.
At the beginning of the new year, I want to go home.
…
The time is January 3, 2125.
The new supplies arrived, and I wrote a greeting card to Hanako, hoping that she would receive it and forgive her irresponsible father.
Besides...I miss my wife very much...but it's hard to say whether she misses me or not.
Hey... I am really good at being the husband of a Chinese... especially a Northeastern girl.
Okay, let’s just write this much. My wrist is starting to hurt again.
Maybe it will be better once winter comes.
It’s really hard to imagine that this place was covered by glaciers just a few decades ago... Could our ancestors be lying to us?
Chapter completed!
