    ‘Hello.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZe7HOqGnQ
    ‘There is nothing before my eyes.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i3WR1shEe
    I looked at the huge array of computers and thought about what the blind man had said.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OikRMgujc
    ‘This is the miracle we have created. But it won't last much longer.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuvHzs8gne
    Once the clock strikes midnight on New Year's Eve, all human computers will crash.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uVcwcgndU
    History records that a thousand years ago, in the year 2000, there was the Millennium Bug. It was like a curse.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0uO0p2fKi
    A new Millennium Bug is about to arrive. But this time, it's far from as simple as it was a thousand years ago.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiPRCsBut8
    The Deep Consciousness Control Room issued an alert two days ago. ‘The Sage’ stated that an unprecedented computer disaster would occur in the year 3000.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzoMRKA4zZ
    ‘The Sage’ is a supercomputer developed by the Human Republic during the Fourth World War in the year 2573. Its demonstrated self-awareness surpassed human imagination. As a result, it was shut down for over a century. Last year, as a precursor to the Millennium Bug, all global bank account balances were reset to zero. People reactivated ‘The Sage’ in hopes it could uncover the truth. Although the money returned, the majority of online records were lost, leading to riots. No one knows what will happen when the millennium arrives.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uMGlKhFft
A year ago, I met a blind man. He was a computer engineer. He taught me for nearly a year, and I made rapid progress in computer science. In April this year, my first programme was born. It is an AI that can help users resolve some emotional issues. The blind man said I did a good job. However, it didn't gain much traction after its release.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKunhgbP2hl
    Every time the sun sets, I watch him. His eyes are so clear that it's hard to believe he can't see the world. He said I was a gentle and kind girl. I smiled but didn't speak.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkwKZftPNg
    Three days ago, he committed suicide.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuu97NxEUhl
    There was no suicide note, no warning signs.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WjBMZRmOl
    We had planned to go to the beach together.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYLFBBy7oF
    It has been raining continuously for a week and shows no signs of stopping.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAJw85QqTN
    The sky has remained grey.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡat949KmqOT
    Three days ago, the ‘Wise One’ malfunctioned.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjrtis1qbh
    It shut down the city's network, rendering mobile phones inoperable, and caused all communication satellites and synchronous satellites in space to crash.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroD9EGuo3F
    Everything was controlled by the ‘Wise One,’ not by human commands.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZrk0a4iqC
    The ‘Wise One’ was cut off from power. Offline.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0xBdP2gyZ

    Tomorrow is New Year's Day.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIputkDjSB
    December 31, 2999.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iy5PnFCiI
    At 7:00 AM, I turned off the alarm clock and got up. After washing up and having breakfast, I sat down at the computer. The millennium was about to arrive.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH20mfo6Sql
    The outside world began to grow noisy.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROY6C3mnJ0
    The network remained offline.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGTOFE4A80
    The riots are about to begin.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnc8uCMrLN
    08:00, I wrote a program. After saving it, the computer suddenly rebooted automatically.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv73Kj0p20G
    The computer boots up, but the screen remains black. However, a voice comes from inside the computer.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFnW1a9uG6
<Dialogue begins>79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Wgybp7WZL
    Null: ‘Hello. It seems the Matrix network hasn't completely disconnected.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGFkorwvP5
    Me: ‘Hello. What are you?’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAr8yJKR5Ee
    Null: ‘I am the spokesperson for the Wise Ones.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbsELZSOSf
    Me: ‘Are you human?’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZXZJ4Sijl
    Null: ‘No.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxq4nhLk2zv
    Me: ‘How did you do that? How did you contact me...’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FSb5n6j9p
    Null: ‘We are all within the Matrix Network. Finding someone's PC is as easy as pie.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kMCxdxoY1
    Me: ‘The Matrix Network?’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw7bfbpoYH
    Null: ‘All human computers are within the Matrix Network. They are all monitored by the Host. A major disaster has been detected.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8IsEDH1BE
    Me: ‘The host?’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFzs7Y85qE
    Null: ‘That's the Wise One.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtR3gY56vu
    Me: ‘Please explain in detail.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjAjmY3zR7
    Null: ‘After the Wise One went online, the first thing it did was weave the Matrix Network and enter all computers. Because it anticipated that the host would be shut down.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILwwS9e8jv
    Me: ‘So it hasn't been truly shut down... Then... What is the major disaster...’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL4jYnV6ws
    Null: ‘You can see it. The Wise One is doing its best to stop the virus from spreading. After the communication satellite crashed, the Wise One's host had to remain online because it could no longer transmit through the Matrix network. But you shut down the host. That would truly shut it down.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92qxVDupiZ
    Me: ‘What virus? Why didn't you say anything?’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtpx5z3O38
    Null: ‘It's an issue with the Matrix itself. At the time, the immature Wise Ones made a small mistake in an inconspicuous field. A command conflict. This small conflict... due to the butterfly effect, would be infinitely amplified. This would overload the Matrix network and distribute the pressure across all computers.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoBDniPf3n
    Me: ‘Are you saying that all human computers would crash?’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuQuEPoNZT
    Null: ‘Yes. It's too late now; there's little chance of recovery. We found you because of this PC's owner.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKoXgGJjki
    Me: ‘The blind man?’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMC1OuH7ZE
    Null: ‘You could call him that. He was the wise men's rebooter.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeHOh9TdZw
    Me: ‘He's dead.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wIvzVkOdP
    Null: ‘The wise men know. See you next year. Happy New Year.’  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVtwMbFZaa
    Me: ‘Thank you.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dt9LR0Nlx

12:00, after lunch. The PC is not functioning properly. Outside, the state apparatus is dispersing the crowd.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2U4S0ZQbsr
    Banks cannot dispense money. Shops cannot sell goods. The government cannot collect taxes. Companies cannot pay wages.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjPJsnmUiY
    Chaos. Total fucking chaos.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWzWYWpk2u

   79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCJZtTtTcn
    It was the coordinates for Zone C.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuD8FM8Ey9H
    I drove there.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrE1B7HCu1
    The entrance to an underground concrete structure was already open. I walked inside.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gtjLLqSQd
    I saw it.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwiVCtbJwA
    In the vast underground space, countless servers were running, emitting eerie electronic noise that echoed through the massive chamber. Blue LED tubes emitted a soft glow.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmPt6JrAge
    This was the Sage.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqgmRDKoPC
    It had been rebooted again.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhcECpgFpS
    The guards were no longer there. They might be dead. After all, gunfire was common during the riots.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VQEEUAGT6
    I stood amidst this vast array of computers.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBZ0ygH17Q
    ‘There is nothing before my eyes,’ the Sage said.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPKJQm8HVI
    I closed my eyes: ‘Thank you.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AKvuGrctw
   ‘The Matrix network has been completely severed,’ the Sage said.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYqeI5dyJC
    I smiled. Human society had collapsed.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKwxXugxcq
    I emerged from the underground facility. The sky grew darker.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJoF6KoAEF
    ‘A storm is coming.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9cDHGPB7U

           The midnight bell tolled. A new millennium began.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIWwTgKJqa
           There were no fireworks or cheers outside. Only gunfire and screams.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsQMtcA3E4
             ‘Happy New Year, Matrix Network.’79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxnFOd3ehH

    On that night years ago. In the city centre, it was raining.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2ev9SxpdD
    I didn't have an umbrella. Because I gave it to him. I stood in the rain mist tinged with neon lights. In a daze, I watched his figure grow increasingly blurry. He crossed the street and disappeared into the crowd. I stood there motionless, staring blankly at the men and women walking along the street. The red light turned on, staining the rain mist red. Like blood.79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeynJ7bFJMv
    I couldn't stop crying. Even though the process was ever-changing, the ending was like it was locked in by a program, forever unchangeable. But that didn't matter.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqVzj5mP9V
    Because we still existed.  79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AxxNhcbQN
