Chapter 282: Xie Jingyun’s Diary
The moment the secret box was opened, a strong light was emitted.
Yu Lingye reacted extremely quickly and pulled Xie Yingmian away.
Fortunately, there was only strong light and no hidden weapons in the secret box. After the strong light dimmed, everything quickly returned to normal.
Xie Yingmian wanted to get closer.
Yu Lingye stopped her: "I'll do it."
There wasn't much in the secret box.
The first thing Yu Lingye saw was a photo.
The photo was sealed in a strange transparent material.
When they saw the photo, Yu Lingye and Xie Yingmian's expressions changed.
“This photo…”
"This portrait..."
They spoke together.
Xie Yingmian's heart was pounding.
She carefully took the photo.
There are two people in the photo.
A man and a woman, very young, they snuggled up to each other with bright smiles.
The young man looked about 70% similar to Xie Yingmian.
The young woman's appearance did not resemble Xie Yingmian particularly, but Xie Yingmian's eyes and mouth were almost identical to hers.
Xie Yingmian's appearance was like a combination of the two of them.
When Xie Yingmian saw the photo, her heart felt like it was stabbed by something.
Tears welled up in my eyes unconsciously.
The tears were flowing more and more, uncontrollably.
Tears fell on the photo.
The photo was protected by special means and would not get wet. When tears fell on it, they would roll down from it.
After a short while, Xie Yingmian's sleeves were wet.
Yu Lingye didn't want to disturb her.
But she was crying so hard that he couldn't bear it anymore, so he took a handkerchief and gave it to her.
"Wipe it off."
Only then did Xie Yingmian come back to his senses.
When she came to her senses, she realized that she had been crying for no reason.
"Why am I crying?" Xie Yingmian wiped her tears. "It's really strange. Why am I crying?"
It was so embarrassing that she suddenly cried like this in front of Yu Lingye, with tears streaming down her face like they were free.
She wiped it with a handkerchief.
As soon as I finished wiping my tears, they started flowing uncontrollably again.
She forced herself not to cry, but tears had their own temper and she couldn't control it.
"Yu Lingye, I feel so weird."
"I can't seem to control my tears."
Yu Lingye looked at Xie Yingmian, who was confused and tearful, and took the photo from her hand.
Without the photo, Xie Yingmian's tears slowly stopped.
"Do you know the two people in the photo?"
Xie Yingmian: "I probably... don't know him."
"should?"
"I don't remember." Xie Yingmian's voice was hoarse from crying. "I lost very important memories. I don't remember them, but the moment I see them, I can't control my tears."
She looked at Yu Lingye, her voice trembling slightly.
"They, perhaps, are my parents."
"But it's strange. Before, whenever I heard Xie Jingyun's name and thought about things related to him, I would get a splitting headache and my sealed memories would start to loosen."
"But when I saw this photo, I just wanted to cry. I didn't get a headache, and it didn't trigger any sealed memories."
Yu Lingye frowned slightly.
The young man and woman in the photo are obviously not Lord Xie.
As for whether she is Xie Yingmian's mother, Yu Lingye thinks not.
Because the woman in the photo looks beautiful and unrestrained, completely different from the person others describe as Xie Yingmian's mother.
"Aren't you Marquis Xie's biological child?" Yu Lingye asked.
Xie Yingmian didn't know how to respond.
She is definitely not Marquis Xie's biological daughter. She traveled through time and space, and her soul was transferred to the original owner's body.
As for whether the original owner was Lord Xie’s biological daughter, she didn’t know.
But, from a genetic point of view, the original owner should not be.
The original owner's mother died early, and not even a portrait was left. The people around the original owner's mother also died or dispersed, so she had no way to investigate.
"I don't know." Xie Yingmian said, "I have to find a chance to ask the Xie family."
Yu Lingye said, "Let's take a look at something else first."
There wasn't much in the secret box.
In addition to the photos, there is also a small notebook.
The notebook is very small, no bigger than the palm of your hand, and has a certain thickness.
Xie Yingmian said, "It looks like a diary."
She opened the notebook and saw a diary filled with entries written in the common language of the 29th century.
"It really is a diary." Xie Yingmian flipped through the contents of the diary.
The three words "Xie Jingyun" were written on the first page of the diary.
The young man in the photo must be Xie Jingyun.
That young woman might be the wife of Xie Jingyun that Qingxiao had once let slip.
She looks so similar to them. Does it mean that she is really related to Xie Jingyun and that woman?
Xie Yingmian always thought that she had no father or mother.
For the 29th century, being without a father or a mother was quite normal.
The population on Blue Planet experienced a brief boom in the early twentieth century.
By the 21st century, the number of newborns has been declining year by year and the population is aging seriously.
Then came several centuries of nuclear pollution, climate change, natural disasters, soil pollution, and so on.
By the 29th century, with food supplies plummeting, human natural reproduction had become a major national problem.
Fortunately, with the development of technology in the 29th century, natural reproduction became a minority and machine hatching became the mainstream.
To put it simply,
Specialized personnel select the appropriate egg princess and sperm prince. The so-called suitability means comparing genes to avoid inbreeding, defective diseases, defective personality, etc.
The egg princess and the sperm prince meet in vitro, combine to form a fertilized egg, and develop into an embryo. The embryo grows in simulated amniotic fluid, and when it matures, the baby is born.
These babies have no specific parents and are all raised by nanny-type bionic mothers.
Everyone is the same, so there will be no discrimination against anyone.
What's more, the genetic screening process is very strict, and inferior genes cannot be selected at all.
Therefore, although the population in the 29th century was small, there was very little waste.
Xie Yingmian lost part of her memory and did not remember that she had parents. She also always thought that she was raised by the country like ordinary people.
Xie Yingmian suppressed the doubts in her heart and went to read the diary left by Xie Jingyun first.
"The first day I woke up, the sky fell."
"The spaceship was attacked and repeatedly torn apart by the wormhole's immense gravity and repulsion. It was only then that the Blue Phoenix managed to separate from the main body and only managed to save some of the wreckage. The wreckage survived, but the Blue Phoenix ran out of energy and was forced into hibernation. I don't know where the others went. I was trapped in this wreckage, seriously injured, and awaiting death."
At the end of this page, there is a picture of a little man lying on the ground, spitting blood and feeling hopeless.
"The next day after waking up, I was waiting to die."
The accompanying picture is still a little man who has lost all hope in life, and his blood volume is decreasing.
"On the third day after I regained consciousness, I was about to die, but I didn't. I even drank an extra tube of nutrient solution."
"Four days after waking up, waiting to die loading..."
"On the fifth day after I wake up, if I have committed a crime, please punish me according to the law instead of letting me lie here and wait to die."
The ending shows a crying villain with no hope in life.
