The image of the little girl that had suddenly appeared on the lunar surface led the stumbling rover to an enormous crystalline meteorite, then vanished before everyone without warning, just as suddenly as she had appeared.
The staff in the ground command hall were somewhat at a loss before this unexpected development. In fact, they had been at a loss ever since the beginning: no one knew what the mysterious figure on the Moon, whose very existence seemed almost impossible to rationally determine, actually meant. Nor did anyone know why she had guided the lunar rover here. Acting on instinct alone, the chief commander of the Dark Side of the Moon operation had given the order to follow her—but what were they supposed to do after following her? And now that she had disappeared, what were they supposed to do next?
No one knew. Thus, after Lilina suddenly vanished, the lunar rover's ground control hall fell into a brief state of confusion and helplessness.
But that state lasted only a very short time. After all, the people present were among humanity's finest. They had come here to explore the unknown, so they should naturally have been prepared to face every unforeseen circumstance—though an image of a little girl suddenly appearing on the Moon was admittedly a little too unforeseen.
In short, someone quickly realized that there were other things they could do now.
"This is the meteorite that struck the Moon!"
Based on the data transmitted back by the lunar rover, someone quickly reached an exciting conclusion: the mountain-sized stone before the camera, into which the mysterious little girl's image had vanished, was not lunar material.
It carried exceptionally strong "zero" energy fluctuations and possessed spectral properties completely different from any known mineral. The rover's simple onboard analytical equipment conducted
