Xiao Meng struggled to catch her breath, unsure of how long she had been running. Her legs felt as heavy as lead, making every step a challenge.
Looking back to confirm that the terrifying Black-hearted Grandpa was not in pursuit, she finally dared to sit down on the ground, gasping for air.
"This old man must be the reincarnation of Rong Mama, attacking so ruthlessly!" She rubbed her sore arm, tears of grievance welling up in her eyes.
Surveying her surroundings, she realized she was in an abandoned library, the air thick with a musty smell. The bookshelves leaned precariously, covered in dust.
Scattered across the floor were some tattered books, their covers barely legible.
"What terrible luck! Of all places to run to, I end up here," Xiao Meng mumbled as she plopped down and picked up a thick notebook at random.
The cover of the notebook had yellowed over time, with crooked handwriting that read "My Diary."
Not paying much attention, Xiao Meng flipped it open and began to skim through the pages.
Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her palm. Looking down, she saw a small, glimmering Sandglass Fragment embedded in the notebook without her noticing.
"What on earth is this?" Xiao Meng exclaimed as she quickly tossed the notebook aside.
At that moment, the notebook lit up unexpectedly, and a blinding beam of light shot out from its screen, unfolding an incredible Holographic Projection before her eyes.
It was a high-tech laboratory filled with various instruments and devices flashing with lights, the faint scent of disinfectant lingering in the air.
A Red-eyed Mechanical Butler stood meticulously at a workstation, monitoring various data points.
"Beep—Time-space anchor point overlap detected, calibrating data..." The emotionless voice of the Mechanical Butler echoed in the empty lab.
Xiao Meng stared in astonishment; this scene was far too realistic! It was even more shocking than an IMAX movie!
This Black-hearted Grandpa's training camp actually hid such high-tech gadgets?
Just then, a distorted shadow appeared in the laboratory's air, and Black-hearted Grandpa's sinister face emerged in the Holographic Projection.
"Future Xiao Meng, hand over the complete Time Sandglass, or I will destroy the thirteen parallel worlds you have created!" His voice sounded like that of a demon from hell, laced with chilling threats.
"Wow, this old man can even communicate across time and space? Truly impressive!" Xiao Meng couldn't help but scoff; this plot development was utterly absurd!
Alarms blared throughout the laboratory as red warning lights flashed wildly.
The Mechanical Butler immediately activated the defense system, countless laser beams crisscrossing through the lab.
"Warning! External threat detected! Activating defense mode!" The Mechanical Butler's voice turned sharp and urgent.
A figure suddenly lunged forward, shielding Future Xiao Meng behind him.
It was Future Sunshine; his once cheerful face now bore an expression of grave concern.
"Xiao Meng, run!" he urged in a low voice, a barely perceptible tremor lacing his tone.
"Sunshine, be careful!" Future Xiao Meng cried out in alarm.
In an instant, several cold Mechanical Tentacles shot forth from thin air and mercilessly pierced through Future Sunshine's left eye.
Blood instantly soaked his clothing, yet he held onto Future Xiao Meng tightly without letting go.
"Ugh!"
Future Sunshine coughed up blood; his face turned pale as paper while life slipped away rapidly from him.
“Xiao Meng… go find the current Xiao Meng… tell her… be careful…” he struggled to finish his last words, pressing a USB drive into Future Xiao Meng's hand before collapsing helplessly to the ground.
“Sunshine! No!” Future Xiao Meng let out a heart-wrenching scream, overwhelmed with grief.
The screen suddenly went black, and the holographic projection vanished without a trace, leaving Xiao Meng sitting alone in the abandoned library, her heart racing and her mind blank.
She gasped for breath, still shaken; everything that had just happened felt like a nightmare.
But when she looked down at her palm, she was shocked to find that she was indeed holding a USB drive, identical to the one Future Sunshine had given to Future Xiao Meng!
“What… what is happening?” Xiao Meng's voice trembled as she felt herself caught in a vast conspiracy.
Tightly gripping the USB drive, she stood up and staggered toward the library exit.
The current Xiao Meng had no idea that this small USB drive would completely change her fate and unveil the long-hidden secrets of Black-hearted Grandpa.
Instinctively, she felt she had to do something—not just for herself but also for Sunshine, who sacrificed so much to protect her in the future.
She plugged in the USB drive, and the laptop screen lit up, countless files rapidly appearing like snowflakes.
Xiao Meng's gaze fixed on a folder labeled “Global Genius Children Cultivation Program.”
Opening the folder revealed detailed records of “genius children” from twenty countries, listing their names, ages, physical abilities, and… transaction prices.
Xiao Meng's fingers trembled as she realized she had uncovered a shocking secret—a black market trade that could stun the entire world.
“Black-hearted Grandpa, what are you doing?” Xiao Meng murmured, filled with anger and fear.
She had to make this information public; she needed to stop Black-hearted Grandpa's evil deeds.
But she also knew that Black-hearted Grandpa would not let her off easily.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Meng gripped the USB drive tightly in her hand.
“It seems this game has only just begun.”
She turned and vanished into the night, leaving behind the dilapidated library that quietly told a story of magic, technology, and conspiracy.
Xiao Meng opened her phone; the screen displayed her chat interface with Gu Beichen. After hesitating for a moment, she dialed the familiar number.
The phone rang for a long time before it was answered; Gu Beichen's slightly weary voice came through the receiver.
“Hello, Xiao Meng? It’s late—what’s going on?”
Xiao Meng bit her lip and spoke with an unprecedented seriousness: “Sunshine, I need your help; I might have… gotten into big trouble.” She opened the USB drive again, overwhelmed by the dense files that made her scalp tingle.
Goodness, Black-hearted Grandpa's operations were extensive; he had a reserve of “genius children” from twenty countries!
Even more chilling was the latest transaction record indicating that tomorrow a batch of “Waste Group” children would be sent out from the training camp to an unknown destination.
Waste Group?
Xiao Meng's heart sank; that meant…
She suddenly recalled seeing Sister Qingmei this afternoon—the gentle psychological counselor now lay pale and lifeless on a hospital bed in the infirmary.
A terrifying thought exploded in her mind.
“No way! No way! This old man can't be so insane!” Xiao Meng felt her heartbeat racing dangerously fast.
She had to do something—if only for Sister Qingmei’s sake; she had to fight back!
She tiptoed to the door of the infirmary and peeked through the crack. Inside, she saw a figure in a white coat and mask sneaking up on Sister Qingmei.
In the dim light, Xiao Meng recognized him—Teacher Lin, the lackey of Black-hearted Grandpa. He usually looked respectable, but she never expected him to be involved in such shady dealings!
Teacher Lin held a syringe in his hand, the liquid inside glimmering ominously. Xiao Meng's heart sank; it was clear that this was no good! She held her breath, watching as Teacher Lin injected the needle into Sister Qingmei's arm.
"What the hell is going on?!" Xiao Meng could no longer contain herself; she kicked the door open and rushed inside.
"Who?!" Teacher Lin was startled by the sudden noise and spun around, nearly dropping the syringe.
"It's me! You bad guy! What are you doing?!" Xiao Meng shouted, pointing a trembling finger at Teacher Lin.
Teacher Lin's expression changed, a cruel glint flashing in his eyes. "Xiao Meng, how did you get here? What did you see?"
"I saw you injecting Sister Qingmei with some unknown liquid! What do you want to do?!" Xiao Meng glared defiantly at Teacher Lin.
Teacher Lin sneered, "Little girl, you know too much! It seems I need to make sure you can never speak again!" With that, he lunged at Xiao Meng.
"Help! Murder!" Xiao Meng screamed as she turned to run.
Just then, a piercing alarm echoed throughout the training camp.
"Temporal anomaly detected! Temporal anomaly detected!" The mechanical voice repeated incessantly, creating a sense of panic.
"Oh no, we've been discovered!" Xiao Meng thought frantically as she clutched her USB Drive tightly and sprinted toward the rooftop.
She knew that only by finding Sunshine could she escape this dreadful place!
Upon reaching the rooftop, Xiao Meng spotted Sunshine immediately. He stood in the center, holding a strange compass and chanting something while drawing in the clouds.
The moonlight illuminated him, casting a mysterious glow around him.
"Sunshine! Hurry up! Black-hearted Grandpa has found us!" Xiao Meng shouted breathlessly.
Sunshine looked up and smiled reassuringly at her. "Xiao Meng, don't worry; I'll get you out of here."
Just then, Teacher Lin's eerie voice came from behind them: "Want to leave? It's not that easy! Welcome to the eternal alternate world—"
Xiao Meng felt a chill run down her spine; she whipped around and saw…
