Lillian walked out of the airport. The lights in Las Vegas were already on. The neon lights were flashing and the crowds were surging. She tore a piece of paper from the notepad and handed it to the taxi driver. It had her destination written on it - 51 Moonlight Lake Avenue. The young black taxi driver whistled and exclaimed: "Is that there? The most luxurious rich area in the city!" Lillian remained silent, staring at the night scene of the casino flowing outside the car window, and her mood became more and more uneasy. She went there to meet someone, someone who had helped and accompanied her countless times in her life. However, she had never known the other person's appearance and voice. All their interactions relied on the Internet, and were maintained by two QQ numbers composed of a series of Arabic numerals. The man was called "Kankasim William", which was similar to the name of the great astronaut who landed on the moon. The astronaut William was the idol that Lillian had admired since childhood. Her ultimate dream was to leave her own footprints on the moon like William. The origin of this friendship can be traced back to a winter night two years ago. Lillian came from Beijing. The day before she arrived in Las Vegas, she had just celebrated her 20th birthday on an Air France flight. Before that, she and Mr. William agreed that they would meet when she turned 20 and officially entered the ranks of adults. At this moment, she was full of expectations, and the hazy feelings in her heart were quietly sprouting. They met on the Internet on Christmas Eve in 2007. That night, the school held a grand Christmas party, but Lillian, who was quiet by nature, hid alone in the dormitory, watching the computer, listening to music, and watching the moon through the astronomical telescope in the window.
Since she was fifteen years old, influenced by her family, she has been obsessed with stargazing, especially the moon covered with craters and craters. At that time, she received a message from a stranger on QQ: "Hello, today is the third day of the full moon, which is also the best time to observe the moon. The time period you chose is quite accurate. From the perspective of your city, you can see that the shadows inside some craters are getting brighter..." Lillian was surprised to find that the camera indicator light above the computer was flashing, indicating that the other party was trying to contact her via video. She typed the question mark "Who?" on the keyboard, and the other party immediately replied: "Kankasim William, please connect the video, I have no bad intentions." Lillian immediately realized that this might be a prank by a classmate. After all, her admiration for Kankasim William has long been a secret known to the whole school. At this moment, on the wall opposite the computer, there is a large photo of astronaut William wearing a heavy space suit, standing on the moon and waving to the audience on Earth. William has a pair of bright eyes, and his eyes reveal deep wisdom. She thought for a moment, turned the camera, and pointed it at William's photo. In this way, what the other party saw on his computer was not Lillian, but the pair of wise and expressive eyes. Unexpectedly, when the other party's video was transmitted, it was the same photo, the only difference was that the other party's photo was in color. For the first time in her life, Lillian knew that Kankasim William's eyes were pure dark blue, like the vast ocean. "I am Kankasim William." The other party sent the same message again. Lillian typed out a sentence with a hint of mischief, "You are William, then I am the Apollo 13 spacecraft."
Thus, they became acquainted.
