“With less than 5% of humanity surviving on the surface…
who would have the time or ability to care for those hibernating underground?”
“In such cases, the people quietly sleeping in their hibernation pods could only leave it up to fate…
If they’re lucky, the hibernation pod keeps running smoothly, and they can continue to hibernate; if not, they end up like these skeletons, dying in their sleep for various reasons.”
At that moment,
Big Face Cat found the light switch for the hibernation base and turned on all the lights, illuminating the entire space like daylight.
Lin Xian took a look around the base.
He discovered that the space was much larger than he had imagined, resembling a large cinema with a circular structure.
...
In the middle, there was a control panel and air circulation device lit up with various indicator lights, while the outermost ring comprised neatly arranged, compact rows of ash-white hibernation pods.
Big Face Cat walked towards them at a leisurely pace, having naturally heard the conversation they had just had; he scoffed in disdain:
“I think you’ve got it backward, unlucky guy…
Dying in your sleep is the lucky break!
Being like you, not dead and forcibly awakened to toil as a slave worker, now that’s bad luck!”
“Let me see…
let me see…
if there’s another unlucky guy here.”
After the lights were turned on,
searching became much easier.
Scanning quickly,
soon, Big Face Cat stopped in front of a hibernation pod, peered inside, and shouted:
“Come over here, come on, little brother!
Unlucky guy!
I found Unlucky Guy Number Two!”
Lin Xian, naturally curious about the state of the person inside the pod, quickly ran over.
Behind him,
Gao Wen frowned deeply, extremely displeased as he looked at Big Face Cat:
“Can’t you be a bit more polite, show some respect?”
“Ah, you’re complaining now!”
Big Face Cat, unfazed, banged on the hibernation pod’s shell:
“Here, I found you a companion!
Fine, fine…
let’s see what this guy’s name is.”

Saying this, Big Face Cat bent down and glanced at the storage compartment below.
However,
the English name there stumped him.
He grimaced, attempting to decipher:
“Shit…
Shit Muncher…”
“It’s Smith.”
Lin Xian walked over, glanced at it, and immediately recognized the foreign name.
Then standing upright, he looked through the hibernation pod’s tempered glass top into…
A scene reminiscent of a mermaid sleeping in the deep sea, a tranquility that language failed to capture.
Inside the pod lay a white man in his thirties, submerged in minus degrees hibernation pod filling liquid, life functions slowed down by hundreds of times, appearing peacefully deceased.
But that wasn’t the case…
On closer inspection, one could see his chest rising and falling, extremely faintly and slowly; without pressing one’s eye against the glass to observe meticulously, it was nearly impossible to spot this subtle change.
This hibernation pod, about the size of a small car, was equipped with a full set of circulation, purification, and life support devices, if there was no malfunction, could indeed hibernate for hundreds of years with the continuous power supply from the miniature nuclear battery.
But…
Such precise equipment had a very small chance of running without hitches for hundreds of years.
“Move aside, let me wake Smith up.”
Big Face Cat seemed to enjoy the process of awakening hibernated humans…
as well as the process of nicknaming others.
This young foreigner, now named Smith, had ironically matched up with Gao Wen’s ‘Unlucky Guy.’
Big Face Cat, clearly not his first time engaging in such heartless acts, quickly pressed several keys on the keyboard; the hibernation pod beeped, then began to slowly warm up, fog gradually forming on the glass.
“From thawing to waking up, and then to being able to walk normally, it’ll take about two hours of recovery.”
Big Face Cat explained to the two as he waved his hand and continued walking forward:
“We’re definitely not going to wait here for an hour, let’s go inside and look around, see if there are any other survivors.”
Behind them,
other slave workers set up started to clear out the storage compartments from the floor, transporting them out to warehouse number four.
Everyone naturally delegated the job of “opening coffins for inspection” to Big Face Cat, making Lin Xian and Gao Wen his assistants by default.
One had to say…
Most of the hibernation pods couldn’t withstand the ravages of centuries, always failing here and there; the majority of those sleeping inside died in their sleep, their peaceful remains lying within the pods…
Lin Xian felt uncertain.
Which ending would really be considered a good one for them?
In this era where they could only survive as slave workers, subsisting in secrecy?
Or…
Sleeping in a beautiful dream, leaving this regrettable world unknowingly?
“Yo!
Hey yo!”
Ahead,
Big Face Cat let out another strange yell:
“Found another one!
Lin Xian, come quickly and see!
It’s a little girl!”
Lin Xian walked over,
following Big Face Cat’s pointing finger, he looked inside the hibernation pod.
Indeed,
inside lay a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, not short in height, likely a high school student.
At that moment, she was dressed in a tight hibernation suit, peacefully and stably sleeping in the hibernation pod filling liquid, like a sleeping beauty, a painting, a finely crafted piece of art.
