I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Chapter 381: Chapter 381: Conjecture
“Suppose there really is such an advanced civilization that radiates its power to the entire earth through the sun. Then, perhaps only the places where the sun does not shine, could humans be spared. So, the conclusion of this hypothesis is that the two poles, North and South, will become safe havens. We are in the northern hemisphere, hence the rumor that it’s safer to head north.”

With that, he shook his head gently, “But these are just hypotheses. Nobody knows if they’re true, and furthermore, not everyone can manage to flee to the Arctic and live there.”

He paused briefly, suddenly thinking of Bai Youwei’s mother, Wang Jingxian.

Wang Jingxian had gone north with the ship, and most probably, her destination was the Arctic.

It seems unbelievable to go to the Arctic, but actually, many people have visited the Arctic for tourism. As long as you’re well prepared, visiting the Arctic isn’t as difficult as imagined.

Even if you can’t get an icebreaker, you can still go there by land. Start with St. Petersburg in Russia, then follow the railway line of the Arctic tourist train, passing Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky and Kaim, to reach Murmansk in the Arctic part of Russia. Cross the national border to Norway, where there’s a small Arctic coastal town, Kirkenes….

Of course, they will encounter many difficulties along the way. Low temperatures and food shortages could be fatal.

But perhaps… perhaps the Arctic region hasn’t been affected by the doll game and is still the same as before?

Such considerations seemed distant.

Bai Youwei suddenly asked him, “When does the polar night in the Arctic start?”

Shen Mo slightly raised an eyebrow, “September, should be around the 20th of September, until March of the following year. During this half a year, the sun is not visible.”

Bai Youwei calculated the timing in her heart.

It is now August. If they leave for the Arctic from here, it will take over a month. They can just make it in time for the polar night and then safely spend six months in the place where the sun can’t shine.

Her mother had quite a dreamy plan.

Seeing her asking in such detail, Shen Mo thought she was considering it and asked: “Do you believe in the Arctic hypothesis?”

“Even if it’s not true, it doesn’t matter.” Bai Youwei laughed, “There aren’t many people there, even making up a Mahjong game would be difficult. Even if the game area covers the entire Arctic Circle, it’s unlikely to be activated. I was just thinking, could the blind spots in the Arctic be left intentionally by the game, to attract survivors to gather there? Otherwise, how could all the puzzle pieces be collected.”

Hearing this, Shen Mo frowned, and pondered, “If the survivors are always dispersed, the puzzles that can be collected would be very limited. We don’t have any means of transportation to get to the mazes in other areas, like Australia… The doll game shouldn’t set a goal that we can’t achieve at all.”

Even if blind zones are set to attract people, there will definitely be people who cannot reach the Arctic for various reasons. So, how would the puzzle pieces from those parts be collected?

Both fell silent, as if they had both realized it was a dead end, or rather, a cul-de-sac.

After a long while, Shen Mo said: “Collecting all the puzzles can clear all the games. This is a clue Zhang Tianyang got from the Brocade Bag prop, so it shouldn’t be wrong. Maybe when we have more puzzle pieces, there will be more clues.”

Bai Youwei thought for a moment, took out all the puzzle pieces, and started trying to put them together on the bed.

Shen Mo also wanted to know what these puzzles can form.

Unfortunately, with their only eight puzzle pieces, each piece’s shape didn’t match any other. After trying numerous combinations with nothing forming, they were totally clueless.

Shen Mo sighed lightly, “It seems we need more puzzle pieces…”

Suddenly, Shen Fei’s voice came from the outside:

“Professor Cheng! Is my brother here?”
