As they approached Xie Zhen‑Tu, the door’s lock recognized the combination of their biometric signatures and the whispered chant: The metal groaned, and the ancient door swung inward, revealing a dimly lit corridor lined with frozen holographic panels. Each panel flickered with fragments of a story long erased from the world’s memory. Chapter 3 – The Hall of Forgotten Echoes Inside, the station was a labyrinth of cold steel and humming reactors. In the central chamber stood a massive crystal sphere— the Mirror of Hei Si . Its surface rippled like liquid mercury, reflecting not the room but a thousand possible futures.
Within it, thoughts floated like luminous orbs. Xiu Ren reached out and plucked one: “Peace for the world” . The orb pulsed, and the void obeyed, sending ripples that traveled back through the crystal to the surface world.
He stepped forward, placed his hand on the crystal, and whispered a phrase he had never spoken aloud: (I am willing to forget, in exchange for rebirth.) The crystal flared white. A torrent of data cascaded through Xiu Ren’s neural pathways, overwriting the memory of the breach, the bounty, the fear. In its place, a calm certainty blossomed: the world can be healed . As they approached Xie Zhen‑Tu, the door’s lock
Date: 10 February 2023 Location: The abandoned research station “Xie Zhen‑Tu” In the waning light of a February dusk, the snow‑kissed peaks of the Kunlun Range hid a secret that the world had long forgotten. Deep beneath the granite, a rust‑colored door bore a single, faded inscription: “Xiu Ren – Gao Qing – 2023‑02‑10 – No. 6251” No one knew what lay beyond it—until a lone figure, cloaked in a tattered navy coat, pressed his hand against the cold metal and whispered a name that had haunted his dreams for years: Booty . Chapter 1 – The Call of the Black Mirror Xiu Ren was a former cryptographer for the Global Data Authority, now a drifter chasing ghosts on the net. His last assignment—code‑named “Hei Si” (the Black Mirror)—had ended in a catastrophic data breach. The breach revealed a hidden algorithm that could rewrite reality itself. The authorities erased his identity, labeling him a rogue. With a bounty on his head, he vanished into the shadows.
Xiu Ren felt a surge of déjà vu. Years ago, in a suppressed file labeled “Project Mei Tui” , he had read about a subject who could using the xu li zhi algorithm. The subject had been a test subject— a rabbit in a lab —hence the nickname. The experiment was aborted after the subject vanished into a self‑created void, taking the data with her. In the central chamber stood a massive crystal
*And somewhere, deep in the quiet of the xu li zhi , a faint echo of a name still lingers— Booty . — .
Booty, now fully integrated with the codex, projected the ripple across the globe. In an instant, every digital ledger, every weaponized AI, every corrupted file began to rewrite itself into benign code. The Hei Si algorithm dissolved, its black mirror shattered. When the storm cleared, the snow around Xie Zhen‑Tu glistened like a field of diamonds. The door sealed itself, but the world outside had already changed. Governments that once chased Xiu Ren now turned their attention to rebuilding. The bounty on his head was lifted; his name reappeared in the archives, this time as a hero of restoration . Xiu Ren reached out and plucked one: “Peace
Now the sphere pulsed, as if waiting for a command. Booty’s voice softened: Xiu Ren hesitated. The breach had cost him his life, his loved ones, his name. Yet the promise of the xu li zhi —the ability to rewrite the world—called to him like a siren.
