"Mister Bai."
A gentle voice called from behind. Bai Haozheng turned, looked at the woman in a kimono, and nodded. "I'm here."
He stopped her attempt at a cordial greeting and raised his hands, palms up. In his left palm lay a Blue Capsule Pill, and in his right, a Red Capsule Pill.
"This is your last chance," Bai Haozheng said with a grave expression, his voice deep. "If you take the blue pill, you will fall into a dream.
"In that dream, you will lose all memories of the past and start afresh.
"You will assume the identity of a normal person in a mundane world without anomalies.
"You'll be born, grow up, go to school, fall in love, get married, have children, and grow old.
"In the dream, you will live a happy life.
"Maybe not rich and luxurious, but definitely safe and joyful.
"Eventually, surrounded by your beloved family and friends, you will die contentedly. In this world, your consciousness will also dissipate painlessly.
