[Hello Dear Ancestors]

3

[Episode 23: A Brief Separation]

4

Let go with your hands.

5

I'm not leaving. I'm living here.

6

- Get up. Come with us.

- I'm not leaving. I'm not leaving. I live here.

7

- Stop dragging me. I'm not leaving.

- Let's go.

8

Zhen Jun.

9

Where are you?

10

Police Officer Qiu.

11

Zhen Jun.

12

Keyi.

13

Where did you disappear to? You gave me such a big fright.

14

- Where did you disappear to?

- Sorry, Keyi. Sorry.

15

I... I can remember now.

16

Keyi, I went out to collect my express mail today.

17

Look.

18

I sent the jade thumb ring to be repaired and now it's done. I went to collect it today.

19

I'm so sorry.

20

Sorry.

21

Zhen Jun! Zhen--

22

- Where did you go, you brat! You didn't even bring your phone with you.

- Teacher.

- Enough.

23

Police Officer Qiu.

24

Zhen Jun must have forgotten where he lived after he collected his express mail,

25

so he has been wandering the streets ever since.

26

A passerby recognized him later and helped him to make a police report.

27

So...

28

It's all right. It's all right. Thank you. It's good he's been found. It's good he's been found.

29

Teacher, can you please remember to bring your cell phone along when you go out in the future?

30

I will. I really gave everyone a lot of trouble today.

31

Police Officer Qiu, thank you, this time around.

32

- This is what I should do.

- Mr. Si,

33

thank you so much for the information which you've provided today.

34

Chairman?

35

We'll still contact you if there's anything else.

36

Mr. Yin? Is that his nickname?

37

Why is Uncle Luo here?

38

Mr. Si Luo is here to assist in the investigation.

39

There's something else. The identity of the dead female body has been confirmed.

40

She's someone from your Infinite Network.

41

Who is she?

42

- Bai Jie.

- Bai Jie!

43

Luckily, all of you are here. Concerning the deceased,

44

can I trouble you to stay and give us some information?

45

Mr. Si, please take care.

46

Thank you for cooperating with us.

47

Si Luo.

48

Mr. Yin.

49

What are you thinking about, Boss?

50

I think that I've already found the suspect.

51

How can it be destroyed so utterly?

52

Ever since I got it back from the secret room,

53

I'd already made repairs to it.

54

But...

55

Can't it be repaired at all?

56

- Then Zhen Jun...

- Based on the science and technology of Earth now, it's impossible.

57

Then Zhen Jun...

58

It doesn't matter, Keyi.

59

Actually, I have another way.

60

What is it?

61

This is a more complicated way and it's risky, too.

62

But I can't tell you now.

63

But...

64

Mr. Yin must have his reasons for not telling us.

65

It's okay.

66

Trust me. Give me some time.

67

Okay. As long as we can save Zhen Jun, anything is fine.

68

What we really need to do now

69

is to resolve the matter concerning the arson.

70

If we can't resolve this matter, we can't proceed with the other things.

71

Why did Bai Jie appear in the secret room?

72

Jun, was she the one who woke you?

73

Bai Jie?

74

I can't remember it.

75

I rememberd that Police Officer Qiu said that on the day of the fire,

76

all the surveillance cameras in the Infinite Building were shut down.

77

So this person must have a very good understanding of Infinite Network. Isn't that right?

78

Not only does this person have an understanding of the Infinite Building,

79

she even knows how to destroy the sleep capsule.

80

When the sleep capsule was first designed,

81

it was tested many times. It is invulnerable to all kinds of attacks.

82

It is not afraid of fire.

83

I've already told you before,

84

that we came to this planet this time

85

to investigate a certain matter.

86

We are not the first batch to arrive on this planet from our mother star.

87

There have been several trips made here previously.

88

But there was an accident during one of the trips.

89

Accident?

90

All the people lost contact with headquarters.

91

After several rounds of investigations,

92

we found that they didn't land at the projected destination,

93

but were forced to land on the ocean.

94

The seawater is a kind of aqueous solution with many components in it.

95

The components and elements are all very complicated.

96

Furthermore, an ecology such as that of the ocean doesn't exist on our mother star.

97

We never imagined that existing in seawater

98

there was a kind of dissolved organic carbon

99

that creates a chemical reaction with the primary metal

100

in the protective layer of our sleep capsule. It can corrode in an instant

101

and produces a large amount of energy.

102

This will cause an explosion if the energy particles reach a certain ratio.

103

Do you mean to say that...

104

It is likely that after the primary metal of the sleep capsule was corroded,

105

a large amount of energy was released causing a rise in the temperature.

106

This caused natural combustion with the materials surrounding it and that started the fire.

107

So this person's objective was not arson, but rather to destroy the sleep capsule.

108

That's right.

109

Who could it be?

110

Who else knows about the existence of the sleep capsule?

111

And the way to destroy it?

112

Just this one piece of paper? That's it?

113

That's it.

114

Isn't this Si Luo the chairman of the Infinite Corporation?

115

How come his resume is this short?

116

That's right. It's only this much. I'm puzzled, too.

117

Do you find that this set of information closely resembles that of someone else?

118

Who?

119

Zhen Jun.

120

Zhen Jun?

121

That's right. It does resemble his.

122

This Si Luo also doesn't have any medical record, no credit card, and no bank account either.

123

He has no assets in his name, either.

124

No assets at all? Doesn't the Infinite Corporation belong to him?

125

He just holds the position of Chairman. He doesn't even have a single share in it.

126

This Infinite Corporation is actually the asset of Du Enterprises.

127

Du Enterprises?

128

That big consortium which has a hand in all kinds of industries, Du Enterprises?

129

Yes.

130

Pianran!

131

You... You finally appeared.

132

Do you know how happy I was just now to receive your call?

133

No, where did you go these last two days? You didn't reply to messages or answer any calls.

134

You caused all of us to worry about you.

135

What is the situation regarding the website now?

136

Actually, it's quite terrible.

137

I just came back from the police station.

138

They found out that the identity of the dead female body was...

139

was Bai Jie.

140

Pianran.

141

- Older Brother.

- Huh?

142

Thank you for visiting me.

143

There's no need to thank me.

144

I'm going out. I'm going out.

145

On the night of the crime, all the surveillance cameras in Infinite Building were shut down.

146

But the camera outside the building is not one which the murderer can shut down easily just because he wanted to.

147

Look at this person.

148

He entered Infinite Building after the fire.

149

But he left very quickly. It's unlikely that he is the murderer.

150

From the shape of the body, it looks like a female.

151

Could this be the same person in Zhen Jun's confession who he claims to have woken him up?

152

Who could this be?

153

No matter who this is, it can't be just any coincidental passer-by.

154

You're here.

155

I've not seen you for a few days and you look like you've lost weight.

156

Did you have anything that you wanted to talk to me about

157

and that's why you asked me to come here today?

158

I have something important to tell you.

159

I'm the one who destroyed your sleep capsule.

160

I'm the one who destroyed your secret room.

161

Pianran, you have a resentment toward me,

162

so I understand why you destroyed my secret room.

163

But Bai Jie?

164

I'm the one who lured Bai Jie into the secret room.

165

Why did you do that?

166

But I really never wanted to hurt her.

167

I want to show you something.

168

[I seemed to have discovered something. If it's true, it's really shocking but exciting, too]

169

[Soon. If I find out the truth, the whole media world will be turned upside down.]

170

When you used your superpower to save Zhen Jun from the roof the last time,

171

Bai Jie witnessed it all.

172

But she didn't manage to take any photos of you.

173

From that time onward, she's been investigating you secretly.

174

As far as she's concerned, this is explosive news that

175

can change our lives and be recorded in the historic news annals.

176

I managed to check her IP address and found her subsidiary Weibo account.

177

I knew that she didn't have any conclusive evidence yet,

178

so she could only continue to speculate

179

and investigate, to the point where she became obsessed with it.

180

I know that in order to achieve her goal, a person driven to madness with unflagging perseverance

181

will do anything

182

to keep pestering you forever.

183

The best way is to let her destroy the evidence that she's found herself.

184

This is also to let her know how frightening

185

the truth really is.

186

Then how did you do it?

187

Fortunately, I had read everything in your diaries

188

concerning the sleep capsule.

189

I created an opportunity for her to discover some clues at the crucial moment.

190

Bai Jie is a very smart person with many ideas.

191

She would only believe those things that she'd seen and discovered herself.

192

The deeper the secrets are hidden,

193

the more she's likely to believe them,

194

the more it becomes real for her.

195

I sprinkled dissolved organic carbon powder

196

on documents, on the computer keyboard,

197

on the door card,

198

and on everything that she might come into contact with.

199

Furthermore, this powder is five times more than its regular value

200

after refinement.

201

She wouldn't notice it.

202

She wouldn't suspect why the door card would be in my office, either.

203

When a person is on the brink of discovering the truth,

204

she will feel an even greater urgency in her quest for truth.

205

She will not stop.

206

Only the last step was missing.

207

At last, she stepped into the trap.

208

Your diary only wrote about corroding the sleep capsule.

209

I didn't imagine that the energy released would cause a fire

210

and Bai Jie would be killed.

211

I really didn't--

212

How could you be so stupid?

213

Don't you know that you'll destroy yourself like this, too?

214

So...

215

Si Luo, you really do care about me. Isn't that right?

216

For what reason did you really do this?

217

For what reason?

218

For the reason that you won't be able to leave me.

219

For you to stay.

220

For you not to go back to your home that is beyond my reach.

221

Pianran, do you know that

222

by destroying the sleep capsule, you've indirectly harmed Zhen Jun?

223

Zhen Jun initially has just eight more months more to live.

224

As long as he returns to the sleep capsule after eight months to convalesce for a thousand years,

225

he will be able to wake up again.

226

What does this mean? This means that I can stay on this planet for at least another thousand years.

227

I will definitely not leave for the rest of your life.

228

How can this be?

229

Life is really an extraordinary thing.

230

The more I want something, the farther it will get away from me.

231

I calculated everything properly.

232

But in the end, I still did not factor in fate.

233

- Pianran--

- I am a sinner.

234

Please don't worry. I already turned myself in.

235

If I still hadn't turned myself in,

236

you'd become the next Real Heroic Man. I can't let that happen.

237

Pianran, I...

238

I've been thinking a lot about us these last two days.

239

All the things that happened

240

between the two of us these last ten years.

241

I thought that I'd hate you.

242

But I don't.

243

I want to thank you.

244

Thank you for...

245

letting me know what happiness is.

246

For letting me know...

247

that loving someone

248

can give me this much happiness.

249

This wine is a toast to you.

250

I hope that one day you can emerge from the past.

251

Perhaps, I won't appear in your life again,

252

but I hope you remember this.

253

Once, there was a girl,

254

who loved you this much before.

255

Pianran, listen to me.

256

You must go to the police and tell them I did all of this.

257

It had nothing to do with you, okay?

258

Be obedient. Listen to me. Listen to me.

259

You're still young. You have a good future before you. You can start all over.

260

Without you, I don't want to start over.

261

Why not!

262

You should hate me. I pushed you to this point. You should hate me.

263

I hate the woman in that painting.

264

I hate that Zhen Fu.

265

I hate myself for looking like her.

266

Thinking about this makes me sick, do you know that?

267

I want to hate you,

268

but I can't do it.

269

I really can't do it.

270

In this lifetime, I have no way of repaying you everything that I owe you.

271

In my next life, I'm willing to be the dust on your shoulders

272

and weather the storm with you. I'll never let you down.

273

I'm sorry, Pianran. I've hurt you.

274

I want to thank you for everything you have done for me.

275

Thank you for appearing in my life.

276

I feel very content.

277

Miss Meng, we received your phone call confession.

278

Officer, I'm the arsonist and the murderer.

279

Arrest me.

280

Can you give me one minute?

281

Sure.

282

Keyi, Zhen Jun, sorry.

283

I thought the sleeping chamber was just a means of transportation.

284

I only wanted to make him stay.

285

I'm very sorry.

286

Was it really you?

287

It was me.

288

I don't expect you to forgive me. I can't do anything about Zhen Jun's body.

289

A life for a life. Take my life for yours.

290

What do you mean by this?

291

Just now...

292

Mister Yin.

293

Si Luo, did you switch out my wine?

294

Actually, I've watched you grow up from young to adulthood.

295

You are my only kin on this planet.

296

You promised me...

297

that you would continue to live well.

298

Actually... Actually... I really wanted to...

299

protect you forever.

300

Pianran.

301

Pianran, in this life,

302

I've let you down.

303

If... If there is another life,

304

I'll definitely give you...

305

all of my love.

306

♫ The snow on the eaves has all melted and formed how many autumn water ♫

307

♫ Traveled the entire clouds and moon just to outflank love ♫

308

♫ My initial heart never changed, waiting for your return ♫

309

♫ For the red bean that I yearn, who can pry through it ♫

310

♫ After loving until now, it's still so clear, just like yesterday ♫

311

♫ Layers of years peel off from the wall ♫

313

♫ Who will take me to charge through the gateway of destiny ♫

♫ The dreams that I've dreamed are still so clear, just like yesterday ♫

315

♫ The candle that you once lit for me ♫

316

♫ is flickering forever ♫

317

♫ That yearning, who can pry through it ♫

318

♫ After loving until now, it's still so clear, just like yesterday ♫

319

This rose is from Pianran.

320

♫ Layers of years peel off from the wall ♫

327

- Zhen Jun!

- Teacher!

328

[Grave of Si Luo]

329

Keyi, what is wrong with Zhen Jun's body?

330

He only has three months to live.

331

Three months?

332

Money is no problem. If this hospital is unable to save him,

333

I'll send you overseas and find the best doctor.

334

That's right. Why didn't you tell us earlier? We all can help.

335

No one can help.

336

Why?

337

Because Si Luo is no longer here.

338

Yeran, Shajia, you both are our best friends.

339

There is something I have never told you.

340

Right now, there's no need to keep it from you any longer.

341

Zhen Jun has lived for 1,800 years?

342

And Uncle Luo is a...

343

Mister Si Luo

344

is actually our Du family's secret.

345

I had originally decided to

346

wait until you inherited the family business

347

before telling you.

348

But I never would have thought...

349

Zhen Fu, you're awake.

350

Aren't I dead?

351

You didn't die.

352

I had changed the poisonous wine that Cao Pi gave you.

353

What you had was Devil's Snare.

354

Devil's Snare?

355

When you drink this,

356

you'll appear dead.

357

I've already made arrangements.

358

There's a palace maid who'll be your substitute.

359

My substitute? Who is that palace maid?

360

It's Mingxue.

361

Mingxue?

362

Mingxue grew up with me.

363

She is like a sister to me.

364

Fu'er, don't blame yourself too much.

365

I promise you that I will let

366

Mingxue's tribe enjoy generations of glory and splendor,

367

to repay her grace and kindness toward you.

368

Mingxue's family surname is Du.

369

She has a few older brothers.

370

Then I'll leave all this

371

to you as well.

372

Good.

373

But is Teacher just going to sit and wait for his death?

374

- What are you talking about?

- That's exactly what it means.

375

Anyway, Zhen Jun is facing very serious organ failure now.

376

There is no other way for him except to return to the sleep capsule.

377

Keyi, Pianran

378

is really very sorry about this.

379

It's because she was in love, too.

380

Then... what are your plans for these next few months?

381

Given Zhen Jun's current situation, I think that

382

whether he's being treated with medication

383

or just being kept under observation, it's not going to be of much help anymore.

384

So I've decided to let him be discharged.

385

I want to bring him home.

386

- You're awake.

- Keyi.

387

You must be hungry after sleeping for so long.

388

What would you like to eat? I'll prepare it for you.

389

Are you feeling okay?

390

It's all right. I'm feeling well.

391

Don't worry about me.

392

I brought you home from the hospital without telling you.

393

It's good to come home. I wanted to go home, too.

394

I'm telling you something. I've already completed the procedure for my leave from work.

395

I don't have to go to work for the time being.

396

Leave?

397

Because I want to be with you

398

every moment, every hour, every minute, and every second.

399

- Keyi.

- Yes?

400

Let's go to the balcony for some air.

401

The starry sky is so beautiful tonight.

402

We will definitely have fine weather tomorrow.

403

♫ I understand a thousand-year-old romance ♫

Wait a moment.

414

I have another request.

415

I just made up for the regret of not proposing to you here.

416

I still want to make up for the regret of not being able to have our wedding ceremony last time.

417

Let's have another wedding ceremony again.

Older Brother. Sister-in-law.

437

Pianran, how are you?

438

I'm good. How about you?

439

Good.

440

Wait a moment. What is it? Oh.

441

Okay.

442

Si Luo asks about the situation at Infinite Network now.

443

Is everything going smoothly?

444

Don't worry, Pianran. Everything is going well at Infinite Network.

445

Thank you, all of you.

446

Didn't I say so? It's not as if Infinite Network can't survive without us.

447

Then can you now honor the promise you made about holding our wedding ceremony

448

during the Si Fu Charity Night?

449

You can't lie to me anymore.

450

Older Brother, Sister-in-law and you

451

must be like the two of us; be blissful.
