A Weekend in 2461 (Novella) Zhang Baotong 2018.9.11

When He Jia woke up, he saw that the sky outside the window was already bright, but he didn't want to get up right away. He was still reminiscing about a dream he had just had. In the dream, he and his beloved Li Mingxiu played in the shallow water of the seashore together, holding hands and chasing and running on the beach together. He didn't know, and it didn't matter, as long as he was with Lee Myung-so. The scene in this dream was so tempting that he was a little nostalgic. He recalls the scene in the dream and interprets the meaning of the dream. The result of the interpretation was that he missed her. Yes, he missed her, she was so beautiful and moving, so talented, she was simply the goddess in his heart.

If she was just the goddess in his heart, he would probably stay away from her, but she was still the closest and dearest woman in his heart. Yes, he was in love with her, he was thinking about her, the kind of desperate longing that a husband misses his wife, and a man looks forward to a lover. He hasn't seen her for half a month, she is the sunshine and rain and dew in his good mood, and with her, he will feel that life is fresh and germinate in the spring breeze, and that life has become vivid and sweet. Because she was beautiful in appearance and cheerful in temperament, she could illuminate his heart like the sun.

He met her at a life sciences symposium at Peking University. At that time, she made a speech on "Research Directions for Using Plants to Promote the Improvement of Human Stem Cell Regeneration Ability" at the exchange meeting. This speech immediately caused a huge sensation, because the people who came to attend this "World Annual Conference on the Development of Biotechnology" were the most authoritative and well-known experts and scholars in the field of biology from various countries. He Jia is a well-known expert specializing in the use of drugs to promote the growth of human stem cells, and of course knows that the use of plants to promote the improvement of human stem cell regeneration ability is a subject with advanced scientific and technological innovation. He felt that her research projects and results were very innovative and inspiring to him, and she was a delicate and beautiful woman, with a clear voice, a bright smile, and her demeanor and bearing shining in his heart like bright sunshine, giving him a warmth and beauty that he had never felt before.

He Jia's speech on "Research and Exploration of Drugs in Enhancing the Vitality of Human Stem Cells" made at the exchange meeting also received great responses. In his speech, he paid special attention to Lee Myung-so's reaction to his speech. She sat in the front row, listening intently to his speech while recording the whole process with a voice computer. When he had finished speaking, she immediately greeted him, pulled him to her seat, and expressed her admiration while discussing with him what he had said.

It wasn't until they found out that the participants had gone out to eat that they left the venue in a hurry. He Jia invited Li Mingxiu to dinner together. They went to a nearby restaurant together, and one of them asked for a caviar burrito and a fried pepper with green shoots. They sat facing each other, allowing him to smell her intoxicating aroma clearly. She wore a light yellow tulle dress, the gauze of which was bright and transparent, so that he could see that her flesh was painted with a faint golden light by the sun, which was a healthy and bright color, very attractive. After the meal, he took her to a hotel, where they spent a mesmerizing and memorable evening together.

Li Mingxiu works at the Shanghai Biological Research Center, while He Jia works at the Xi'an Institute of Biopharmaceuticals, separated by more than 1,200 kilometers, so after spending that evocative night together, the two did not see each other again. Of course, this is not because they are too far apart and inconvenient to come and go. The vacuum-levitating magnetic train could bring her to him in an hour, but for various reasons, he didn't invite her over. But they had made a few video calls, her voice was clear and sweet, her smile was warm and bright, and he felt that every part of her body was strongly attracted to him.

The dream seemed to remind him that he should have invited her over, and that it was the weekend and they could spend some good time together. He has no relatives in this world, and almost all his relatives are his ex-wife. In his 249-year-old life, he was married nineteen times, but he did not spend much time with each of his wives. The first wife was his student, 42 years younger than him, when he was only 185 years old, and his wife was only 143 years old. It can be said that my wife was still very young at that time. Because people generally start getting married as early as the age of 150. It's not that people don't have enough age, but that people don't want to rush to get married, and marriage will tie the two closer together. And after getting married, there will be a divorce, and divorce will make people feel a little embarrassed and guilty, and even cause psychological damage to one of them. Therefore, people are more inclined to live freely and freely unmarried, which will save a lot of trouble and constraints.

His marriage to his first wife lasted almost seven years. This is the first cycle of the seven-year itch. In fact, he and his wife only lived for more than a year after marriage. Later, on a trip to Australia, his wife fell in love with a tall, stocky bull-like American, Yat. After that, he followed Art to Arizona in the United States. However, she stayed there for less than half a year, and then she felt very unaccustomed to it, and returned to China, but instead of returning to him, she ran away with a Cantonese to live on the shore of Erhai Lake in Yunnan, and then went with others to Tibet and Gannan. It wasn't until 7 years later that she called and said she was in love with a Japanese man. So, they divorced via video.

In the more than 50 years since his first divorce, he has been married 18 times, but each time he has not been married for a long time, and then he has divorced. The reason for their divorce is not because of a broken relationship, but because they are in love with someone else. In this highly affluent society, no one will worry about life without worrying about food and clothing, leisure and comfort. And the average age of people is over 500 years old, so almost all of them look very young, the men are handsome and handsome, and the women are all charming and beautiful. Because robots are used in the factory, people only work two to three days a week, spending most of their time on vacation and leisure. And men and women on vacation and leisure are easily fascinated by different emotions and novel scenery, so they fall into the style. So, it's easy to fall in love with another person on a trip and wave goodbye at the end of the trip. In fact, people's emotions are also experiencing travel again and again, meeting a beloved opposite sex on a certain journey, falling in love with each other, and waiting for the heat of love to slowly cool down, and then going through the next trip. It seems that if we don't do this, we will not be able to produce vitality in life, and we will not be able to feel the vigor and beauty of life.

No way, it's not human fault, it's the causmones in the human body that are at fault. Caulmones are derived from the Greek word hormone, which means "activation". It is produced by endocrine organs, released into the blood circulation, and transported to an organ or tissue to exert a certain effect. It is precisely because of this caustic montage that men and women keep falling in love with the opposite sex one after another, experiencing emotional changes again and again. But it is undeniable that this kind of liking the new and hating the old and seeing the strange also allows men and women to experience more beautiful life and emotional experiences, and feel that the world is so fresh and beautiful. Therefore, red apricots out of the wall, emotional cheating, easy divorce and instant marriage are really commonplace in this highly developed society in 2461 AD.

Of course, he still has parents, but he was not born from his parents' cohabitation and his mother's pregnancy in October, but from his parents' stem cells. Moreover, their parents are just as young as they are. Therefore, he did not have a close relationship with his mother, and he did not even know his father. His parents didn't care much about him either, because he had been raised in a laboratory and had grown up in a national nursery. He had almost no siblings, because the state stipulated that a man and woman could only have one boy and one girl in their lifetime. Exactly, he should also have a sister. However, it seems that this sister has not been born yet.
