Archaeologist Elijah received a strange work commission, asking her to participate in civilization excavations in the desolate Sif Snowfield.
"Comrade, you are the only one who can see the time."
This is what the commission email says.
Can you see the time? Elijah did know how to read a watch.
Otherwise... What else could this sentence mean?
The Xif Snowfield is located in the far north of the continent and is frozen all year round. History books from various countries have never recorded the existence of civilization here.
But the invitation came through the official list, and all the people on the entrustment list were old acquaintances.
There's nothing to lose by taking a look anyway, she thought.
So Elijah took her luggage with her and took a plane to Sif. After passing through the snowfield cross-country, she was shocked and stunned by the sight in front of her.
Under the ice, all the streets and buildings maintained their last noisy posture.
The smiles of merchants, the moments of children chasing each other, palaces, houses, markets...
The entire civilization has been preserved in the most gorgeous and cruel way.

The president of the Continental Civilization Protection Association personally led the team and designated Elijah to be responsible for the excavation.
But as the work unfolded, Elijah gradually discovered that this work was different from what she expected.
She is not looking forward, but looking backward.
What they are digging is not a civilization that has passed away, but a civilization from the future.
She dug up the beginnings of civilization.
