### Volume 1 Final Chapter: Cicada Sleep Universe
The moment Xia Cicada pressed the old-fashioned recorder, the 17-year-old cicadas broke through the window of the auditorium. Jiang Ye's cochlea raised an ice-blue soft light in the sound waves, and the cicadas recorded before Jiang Zhixi's death were waking up the same people who were sleeping on the ground.
"This is the sound of rain in 1999." She said to the microphone that the fragments of the bail notice torn apart by Su Yuwei were swirling in the dome, "And the seventeen summers you missed."
Jiang Ye stepped on the glass and walked to the flag-raising platform, and the cochlea shell reflected the shadow of the cicada flapping its wings. When he took Xia Cicada's trembling hand, Su Yuwei suddenly tore off the Jiang family emblem from her neck and smashed it at the stereo - the sound of metal impact made the cicadas violent, but accidentally activated the dusty graduation ceremony video.
Jiang Zhixi's high school image appeared on the projection screen: he played the unfinished "Cicada Sleep Song" in the same position. In the corner of the camera, a little girl in a strawberry skirt was picking up waste paper - it was a twelve-year-old Xia Cicada.
"It turns out that you have been there for a long time..." Eno's cochlea oozes out a pale blue liquid, steaming into a nebula-like mist in the sun. Between the palms of their hands, pen water mixed with blood stains seeped into each other's fingerprints, and the same number 1007 was blurred out in the volunteer code bar.
The cicadas suddenly stopped restless and began to land on Jiang Ye's shoulder in an orderly manner. Su Yuwei looked at the cracked family emblem on her palm in a daze - Jiang Zhixi's handwriting appeared there: "Sister, it's time to walk out of the culture dish."
The rainstorm poured over with cheers. Xia Cicada touched the burn scar on the back of Jiang Ye's neck and put it together with the scar on his waist to form a complete cicada wing. When the first cicada chirping penetrated the rain curtain, they finally heard the confession that had been buried for 17 years - on the back of the tape, Jiang Zhixi knocked out the Morse code with piano keys: "Please let my eyes see the future for you."
