The Vanishing Fish Mystery
The incident didn't happen too long ago, it's very recent. The brother who sent us the story wishes to remain anonymous, so I won't mention his name. He's currently in the Xinjiang province. What they usually do is, after coming back from the office, they go fishing in the Grand Canal, which is huge and has many different sections. Near his house, at that part of the canal, he goes fishing. His apartment is a two-room flat, and he lives alone. Sometimes his university juniors come to his place to chat. He really enjoys it when Bangladeshi brothers are in a foreign land and visit his apartment. Living alone, after a while, a person starts to feel lonely, and that can turn into frustration. Because of this, he always tries to keep in touch with brothers from his university, whether they are his classmates or juniors. His office ends at six, and he gets home around six-thirty. After resting for a bit, he goes out for a chat. Most of the time, they fish in different parts of the Grand Canal using fishing rods with reels. The government releases a lot of fish there, and many people fish there. On weekends or public holidays, many people try to fish there. They often try to catch fish, cast their lines, and chat. So, I'm going to tell you about one such incident. They went fishing; there were two of them that day. Usually, there are three of them together, but that day, for some reason, the third person didn't come. So, when the two of them went fishing, they found that they had been trying for three consecutive days but couldn't catch a single fish. On the fourth day, when they went fishing, unlike the other days when there were three of them, there were only two of them. They tried fishing for a long time, trying as they did on other days, but it wasn't working.

Doubt is the Only Truth
The year was 2073, and the world had long since crumbled under the weight of its own paranoia. Cities were skeletal remains, their towers leaning like gravestones over a wasteland of ash and rust. The sky, perpetually choked with gray haze, let no sunlight through—just a dim, oppressive glow that made every shadow suspect. Humanity clung to survival in fortified enclaves, governed by the Council of Certitude, a regime that promised order in exchange for absolute obedience. Their mantra was simple: "Certainty is salvation. Doubt is death." But for Mira, doubt was the only thing keeping her alive.

April 25, 1986, was a crisp spring day in Pripyat, Ukraine. The Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant loomed on the horizon, its four reactors a testament to Soviet ambition. Reactor Number 4 was slated for a safety test that night—a simulation of a power outage to ensure the turbine could keep coolant pumps running long enough for backup generators to kick in. In our reality, this test would unleash a catastrophe. But in this tale, a single voice altered the course of history.
