Chapter 22
Andre spoke with heartfelt sincerity, hoping to convince Murphy to abandon the idea of freezing himself. Yet no matter what Andre said, Murphy had only one
response.
“Whether or not the thawing process succeeds in the future, my decision won’t change,” Murphy declared. His voice was resolute, and his gaze was unwavering. “I missed her once. I won’t miss her again.”
If the thaw succeeded, he would reunite with her in the future. If it did not, then he would stay by her side for eternity.
The deep sea was so dark and cold. How could his little girl, who was so afraid of the dark and the cold, endure it without him?

Murphy moved swiftly through every step of the process—signing papers, undergoing a medical evaluation, and selecting a cryo–casket. By the end of the day, everything was completed with precision and efficiency.
Still, he didn’t enter the cryo–casket immediately. Before freezing himself, he took care of a few final arrangements.
