AI Sci-Fi Novel - "The Gazer"

Chapter 13: The Gazer's Destiny

Time: Eight Years After the Pandora Incident

An autumn rain was softly tapping against the massive glass dome of Lin Yao's research center. Beneath the dome lay a climate-controlled indoor ecological garden, designed to mimic a tropical rainforest.

Lin Yao paused her wheelchair, quietly watching the rainwater merge into streams on the glass, winding its way down. This natural, complex, and unpredictable pattern always seemed to calm her turbulent thoughts.

The "Echoes of the Abyss" incident had passed a year ago. The "Star Capsule" wave receded, and the world seemed to return to normal. Lin Yao's proposed education reform suggestions were like a pebble dropped into a deep pond; while they stirred up ripples, shaking the deep-rooted inertia of the entire education system still remained a long and arduous task.

Life, it seemed, had settled into a quiet groove. Her daily routine revolved around research, advocacy, and safeguarding those "Gazers."

Then, the letter arrived.

The letter was handwritten, coming from a mental asylum nestled in a remote mountain area. The handwriting, at times neat and delicate, at others wild and scrawled, seemed to belong to two entirely different people.

The signature on the letter was a name both familiar and strange to Lin Yao: Lin Mo.

Lin Mo was her father's name.

Lin Yao's father had been one of the nation's top theoretical physicists. In her childhood memories, he was always a silent, distant figure. He wasn't like other dads who took her to parks or told her bedtime stories. He'd just sit at his desk, using symbols she couldn't understand to construct models of the universe on countless drafts. Occasionally, he'd point to the starry sky and, in a near-dreamlike whisper, tell young her about black holes, gravitational waves, and the very beginning of time.

He taught her about the entire universe but never showed her how to tie her shoelaces.

When she was fifteen, her father "lost it."

He began claiming he could "hear" whispers in the cosmic background radiation, believing them to be messages from higher-dimensional civilizations. He shut himself in his room, covering the walls, floor, and ceiling with dense, incomprehensible formulas and symbols. Eventually, he was diagnosed with "paranoid schizophrenia" and sent to an asylum.

This event was the deepest pain in Lin Yao's heart, and it was also one of her fundamental motivations for initially dedicating herself to gene and brain science research: she wanted to know where her father's genius brain, which once contained the entire universe, had gone wrong.

Now, this letter from her father, almost twenty years later, reappeared before her.

The letter's content was chaotic and disjointed. Most of it was a wild theorizing about "non-harmonic oscillations of cosmic strings," but towards the end, the handwriting suddenly became clear and tender:

"Xiao Yao, I saw your story. Pandora, the 'Gazer Gene'... So that's how it is. It turns out we... are the same kind of people. I always thought it was my fault, that I had gone mad. Now I understand, this isn't an illness, this is our... destiny."

"...I'm running out of time. While I'm still lucid, I want to see you one last time. I want to give you my 'model.' It's incomplete, but I know only you can understand it."

Lin Yao's hand, holding the letter, trembled slightly.

The next day, she drove alone to the asylum tucked deep in the mountains. Ava Jensen was super worried, but Lin Yao insisted on going by herself. She knew this was a buried past she had to face alone.

The asylum was as quiet as a secluded monastery. Led by the director, Lin Yao walked through long, sunlit corridors until they reached a patient's room.

Inside the room, an old man with white hair and a gaunt frame sat by the window, intently watching a ginkgo tree sway in the breeze outside. He wasn't looking at the tree itself, but at the trajectories of its falling leaves, as if searching for some chaotic mathematical pattern within them.

"Lin... Yao?" he rasped.

When he turned and saw Lin Yao, a glimmer of clarity flashed in his murky yet profound eyes.

"Dad," Lin Yao whispered. The word felt so foreign on her tongue.

There were no excessive pleasantries in the room, nor any embraces for a father and daughter reunited after so long. Lin Mo simply pointed to a dusty box under the bed, signaling Lin Yao to open it.

The box was packed with thousands of yellowed manuscript pages. Each one was covered in dense formulas, diagrams, and symbols. This was his life's work, the "cosmic model" that the world had dismissed as "ravings."

"They all said I was crazy," Lin Mo's voice was hoarse and weak, "but I wasn't. I just... saw things they couldn't. Like that... ancient man, Keli. We can hear the whispers in our blood, echoes left from the birth of the universe. But this 'hearing' comes at a cost."

He pointed to his temple. "Here, it's like an overclocked computer that will burn out one day. This is the Gazer's destiny. We're given eyes to see the stars, but we also have to bear the pain of our brains burning out for it."

Lin Yao silently looked at the manuscript pages. With her current knowledge, she could tell that these so-called "ravings" weren't illogical. It was a... a theoretical framework built on intuition and inspiration, highly personal, and transcending existing mathematical language. It was chaotic, incomplete, yet in certain parts, it shimmered with the light of genius.

"You..." Lin Yao wanted to ask something but didn't know where to start. She wanted to ask, "Do you regret it? Have you ever resented this destiny?"

Lin Mo seemed to see right through her thoughts. He smiled, and in that smile, there was both sadness and release.

"When I was young, I tried to be 'normal.' I learned to love, learned to be a good husband, a good father." His gaze drifted far away, as if recalling something. "I loved your mother, and... I loved you. But I found I couldn't. When I looked at you, I didn't see my daughter; I saw the atoms that made you up, the beautiful double helix in your genes... it was my damned analysis and calculations that I couldn't stop."

"My love was also a form of 'pattern recognition.' That's just too unfair to a wife, to a daughter. So, I chose to leave, chose to... immerse myself in my own world. It was better for both of you."

Lin Yao's heart felt tightly squeezed by an invisible hand. She finally understood her father's "coldness" and "detachment" from all those years ago. It wasn't a lack of love, but a... a way of thinking unique to "Gazers" that he couldn't control. His brain had "dehumanized" and "data-fied" the entire world. He loved them, but he couldn't express or feel that love in a human way.

Perhaps, this was the "Gazer's" most profound tragedy. Not being shunned by the outside world, but intrinsically losing the ability to forge warm connections with it.

"This model, it's missing one last piece," Lin Mo's voice grew fainter and fainter, his gaze starting to unfocus. "A parameter for the 'initial singularity,' I could never find it. I hid it... in the only thing I could remember that was 'human' related."

He reached out a trembling hand and pointed to Lin Yao.

"You... your birthday. Year, month, day, eight numbers. Substitute them into the 'Lin Equation' on page 37... that's... the key..."

After saying that, the light in his eyes completely faded. He reverted to the old man staring blankly out the window, immersed in his own world. He no longer recognized Lin Yao, nor the world around him.

The thread of reason in his brain, having completed its final handover, snapped completely.

Lin Yao sat quietly by her father's bedside, tears silently streaming down her face. She wasn't weeping for his "madness," but because she finally understood this heavy, clumsy father's love, spanning two decades and wrapped within cosmic models and chaotic symbols.

He hadn't forgotten her. He had transformed his sole, most profound memory of his daughter into the key that unlocked his entire intellectual universe.

This was a unique romance, belonging only to the "Gazers."

That evening, Lin Yao input her father's model, along with the string of numbers representing her birthday, into the research center's supercomputer.

The massive data began to churn. On the screen, the chaotic, incomplete cosmic model, after incorporating that crucial "initial parameter," started to self-correct, evolve, and complete itself, like a creation infused with a soul.

Finally, it stabilized, forming a perfect, self-consistent theoretical model describing the universe from its birth to its end.

In the center of the screen, a line of information automatically generated and sent by "Adam" appeared:

"He saw it. He just used a different language to describe it. Our respects to him."

Lin Yao leaned back in her wheelchair, gazing at the perfect cosmic model, shimmering with the light of intelligence, and remembered her father's final, relieved smile.

She suddenly understood.

The Gazer's destiny might be loneliness, madness, and burning out completely. But even within this destiny, there was still room for love. Perhaps it wasn't as warm or direct as ordinary human love; instead, it was hidden in formulas, encoded in the paths of stars, given by a father, with his life's madness, as a final gift to his daughter.

Lin Yao stood up and walked to the massive floor-to-ceiling window. The rain had stopped, the dark clouds had scattered, revealing a clear night sky dotted with stars.

She knew her father hadn't truly left. He had simply become a part of this cosmic model, a star among the countless ones scattered across the night sky.

Like Keli, and like all lonely Gazers, their ultimate destination was the sea of stars.

And she, carrying this unique "love," would continue to protect those on the ground, her kindred spirits, still lost and confused, searching for their own piece of the starlit sky. Because she knew that within the double helix of every genius and every madman, there might just be such a gentle key, capable of unlocking the entire universe.
