But at this time, Qin Jingyu encountered another problem. If exceeding the speed of light can really make time go backwards, it will also cause another problem, that is, the collapse of the law of causality brought about by time travel.

The most typical example is the grandfather paradox, that is, a person travels back in time and kills his grandfather, then this person loses the causal relationship, because without a grandfather there would be no father, let alone him.

Therefore, if there is only one timeline, the time traveler will also disappear the moment the grandfather disappears, and even the entire timeline will disappear.

So at this time, another parallel universe theory emerged. The past that this time traveler traveled back to was just another branch of the timeline. The grandfather paradox did not apply to him at all because he came to a completely new timeline, a completely new universe, not the previous universe.

Time paradoxes are one of the biggest puzzles in modern physics, and although scientists have proposed many theories to explain these paradoxes, there is still no clear answer.

-

And the opportunity to unlock the answer came when Qin Jingyu was 886 years old. It was the day when she discovered a new form of energy that could transcend the boundaries of time and space, and suddenly appeared.

After the main storyline mission ended, 886 rarely appeared again.

And this time she appeared because she touched the edge of the huge secret of the universe.

886: [Ding! Congratulations to the host for finding the real answer. All tasks have been completed. The host can choose to continue to stay in this world, or choose to return to the original world one hour ago to prevent the plane crash and rescue Qin Jingyu in that world.]

Qin Jingyu got the point: [That world, how many worlds like this are there? Where are you from? And who am I? Am I the actor Qin Jingyu, or am I the Qin Jingyu who grew up in the countryside? ]

The question of who she is is the one she wanted to ask when she confirmed the existence of the Boltzmann brain.

However, at that time, her authority was limited and the system would not give her the answer. But now, she thought that she was qualified and had the authority to do so.

886 smiled with relief and said: [Host, as to who you are, you already have the answer in your heart, right? ]

Qin Jingyu was shocked. Could it be that all her previous assumptions were...

886: [Yes, host. It's all true.]

Qin Jingyu asked another question, [If I go back and prevent the plane crash, will I still be myself, will I return to this world? ]

886: [You are you, but you are not you. You belong to this world, but you do not belong to this world.]

Qin Jingyu's expression gradually became serious. [So, who am I? ]

886: [Host, you are Qin Jingyu, and you have always been the Qin Jingyu of this world. I have already answered your question a long time ago. It is you, the host, who are not careful enough.]

Qin Jingyu froze.

She suddenly remembered that a long time ago, when she first came to this world, she could always sense some of the original owner's emotions, but as time went on, these emotions disappeared little by little, so that she almost forgot about it later.

At that time, she asked 886 this question, asking her why she could feel the original owner's emotions?

886 once said that she was Qin Jingyu, and she was actually the original owner.

She thought at the time that it was because this was a fictional world based on the prototype of the black fan novel, so 886 gave this answer.

Thinking about it now, it is indeed terrifying and creepy.

But there was one thing she still couldn't figure out.

The time in this world is extremely different from that in her world, so this doesn't conform to her logic?

886 then said: [Host, the reason why you feel it is illogical is because this is originally a huge experiment. If the experiment is not over, your logic will never be closed.]

Qin Jingyu: [So, this is really a parallel world? ]

886: [It is a parallel world in the experiment. When a parallel world appears, it will split into more parallel worlds. The reason why you feel that it is so different and strange is because this is not a parallel world created with you as the protagonist.]

[This time, because the path you choose is different, the people and things you meet will gradually change with every step you make. ]

Qin Jingyu began to ponder over what 886 said.

886: [In this world, the only person who has not changed from your original world is Gu Yan. You chose scientific research in this life, so she has lost a powerful opponent like you on her star journey.]

886: [For example, Bo Hanting, you felt familiar with him at first because you had seen him in your world before.]

Her hair stood on end again, [Have I seen him? ]

886: [In your world, Gu Yan is your mortal enemy, and the company she supports is an entertainment subsidiary of the Bo Group.]

Qin Jingyu was stunned again. This was a few years ago, after the old man died, when Gu Yan got the female lead in "The Legend of Qinghe". She knew that it was actually the Bo Group behind Gu Yan that was supporting her, so those good resources would be given to her.

But after thinking about it, he frowned again: [No, I can understand Bo Hanting's reason. What about Jiang Jibai? He is also in the entertainment industry and was once a top star in the entertainment industry. I should have met him, right? ]

886: [Host, in the original world, Jiang Jibai should have died when you met him, that is, when you were seventeen years old. He refused to receive treatment and his death was not announced to the public. Before he retired, you had not yet made your debut.]

Qin Jingyu's body was stiff. If she hadn't met Jiang Jibai in the library that year...

But I still feel that there is something illogical. But 886 said that she was originally in an experiment. Are there loopholes in the parallel time and space in the experiment? But what kind of experiment is this that is so huge and so terrifying?

886 Mechanical Answer: [Sorry host, you don’t have this permission. As a final parting gift, I can remind you that although this is a huge experiment, the master said that after she entered the game, this world is not virtual, but real.

As for why I brought you here, it was because a scattered consciousness began to grow and appeared in my own consciousness uncontrollably. Our task is to fix it back on track, but there are too many such wrong consciousnesses. Regarding the last task set by the master for us, we may fail. These uncontrollable factors may have been anticipated by the master, and you are the best one I have corrected, and the one that is most like the master. 】

886 began to become more and more mechanical: [Start to cancel the countdown, 10...9...]

Qin Jingyu realized that its mission was accomplished, so was it going to leave?

She couldn't help but feel flustered, and she rarely lost control of her emotions: [You can't leave yet, who is your master, and what is that experiment? ]

886: [The host does not have permission to query. ]

886: [Mission completed, I am system code H-886. ]

-

The world in Qin Jingyu's mind returned to peace.

The floating panel was still there, but some task progress bars were missing. When the mission was over, 886 disabled the task system and disappeared, but those black technology drawings were still there. She thought it was a gift left for him by 886.

And it said its code name was H-886.

So is it related to H? And are there many such systems?

Who are their owners, why do they want to get involved, and what kind of experiment is this?

And what does it mean when it says that the consciousness begins to grow and appears uncontrollably in one's own consciousness? She is also an important part of this experiment. What role does she play?

Maybe it has something to do with the Boltzmann brain, or the low entropy of the universe?

No one would tell her the answer.

But the only thing that is certain is that they come from a more advanced and civilized world. If she wants to know the answer, she still has a long way to go. Perhaps she will never find the answer in her entire life, but she will not give up.

This secret, this experiment, will eventually end, and the truth will be revealed one day!

——End of text——

-

This is the end of the main text. I have laid the groundwork for this ending and this experiment step by step, so it shouldn’t be too abrupt.

From last summer vacation to the end of this summer vacation, thank you all for your company this year. I am really grateful.

The beginning of this novel was created by me in 21 years based on the beginning of another novel of mine.

So the first few chapters were probably really shocking due to the time difference, and the settings were outdated, which discouraged many readers. It also received a lot of negative reviews and the data was also very bad. There were several times in the middle that I almost couldn't hold on and wanted to finish it hastily.

But because I really liked the character of Qin Jingyu, I didn't want to let down the protagonist, nor did I want to disappoint my readers, so for several months I stopped reading reviews, worked hard on my writing, and finally managed to make it through.

I like Qin Jingyu. I like her perseverance, her courage to explore and pursue, and I also like the soul with a dry sense of humor beneath her cold appearance.

I would like to borrow a phrase from Qin Jingyu, and I hope that all readers will be able to “let the sky be high and the sea be vast for birds to fly, and let the mountains be high and the waters be long for you to travel.”

About the extra

There are about three extra chapters, alumni reunion (class reunion) + parallel time and space to prevent the plane crash + the two daughters of the whale

There were many suggestions for the names of Whale's two daughters, and I finally chose "Qin Xinghe" from reader "Whale Dance" and "Qin Sui'an" from reader "Yan Ying".
