"We can't go back?" Sam gasped in shock.
He glanced at Chen Ke, sensing that the other wasn't panicking but instead seemed deep in thought, as if weighing something.
Seeing that Chen Ke didn't want to speak at the moment, he looked towards Dr. Jiu Lin.
"Doctor, how long have you been here? You must have also looked for a way to leave, right?" Sam asked.
"Of course, but theoretically, there is only one way to travel to other timelines. Time entanglements happen occasionally, causing many people worldwide to disappear without a trace each year and just as many to suddenly appear. It's all because they were right at the nexus of a time entanglement. But that nexus isn't a door you can just open whenever you wish," Dr. Jiu Lin replied.
"So, you're saying that finding the subway won't give us hope to return?" Sam asked anxiously. He had held on until now only because holding a gun had distracted him, coupled with a 100% hope of returning.
