While young, he found a brown-covered diary near a flower bed and kept it in a drawer. Its entries described future events and stock-market movements; many came true, though its predictions became less dependable as history diverged through a butterfly effect. Ji Yehao eventually concluded that its author may have crossed worldlines. 262 263
