[Hei silently ponders what is meant by that. If it's anything to do with being in any part of government system, that sort of thing... Might as well find out.]
The Grid...? [A pause as he's just going fishing under the surface of Li's cluelessness to test and see what the helmet wearing person knows, or assumes.] Does this have to do with the world you come from?
[He won't hesitate to explain, his tone light and friendly.]
The worlds that are replicas of the same world I'm from, called Earth. I'm mostly wondering about that.
Not that I mind hearing about other worlds too but, you see, I met someone who came from an Earth that does not have a false sky, and the incident that caused the South American continent to vanish didn't happen.
It's both strange and interesting to know a world almost exactly like mine exists...
[The short response from this kid has Hei assess that he perhaps isn't from any world like his.]
Most of what I said just flew over you, didn't it? [A nervous chuckle] Not that I expected you to understand. It's...all incredibly complicated. Any reasons behind that are a mystery.
A-Anyway, it's nice to meet you Hope. Where do you come from? How long have you been here?

May I ask who is speaking? I'm Li Shengshun.

[And what Li just told him didn't make a lick of sense...]
