Chapter 2: Strange Letters

In the early summer in the mountains, the pine shade is like a cover, the flowers are all over the ground, and the butterflies are flying.

A man with a straight military uniform stood for a long time with a military hat in his hand, looking at a mottled stone tablet with a dazzle.

The grass behind the monument was slightly raised, and it seemed that countless past events were buried.

"You say, if this time is glorious, you don't need to burn paper money in the future, the money is useless, just burn a few books for you to read, and you don't need more, one a year, it's a waste of more......." He spat out heavily, and suddenly couldn't speak, clenching his lips.

After a while, he took out a small black object from his pocket and looked at it in front of his eyes: "I'll ask the child to help me find some books,...... He gave me this, what is the story of living again after death...... There are many ...... Say you're probably going to like it...... Let's try ...... this year."

The man squatted down, put the little black thing into a big bowl on the ground, and smiled: "You don't know, this thing is called a USB drive, we didn't have a ...... back then"

He took out a flat vial from his pocket: "This, just like it was back then!"

He unscrewed the cap of the bottle, poured it into his mouth very proudly, poured it into the bowl with a sigh of relief, threw the bottle aside, and looked at the stele in a daze, his face changed, as if he remembered a lot of things.

After a while, the man got up again, struck a match, slowly lit a cigarette for himself, and as soon as his hand was released, the match fell into the bowl and the flame rose.

He stood in front of the grave, motionless for a long time, watching in a daze as the USB drive slowly melted in the flames, and the sky seemed to sound the loud military song again, and the roars and laughter of his comrades were mixed with the roaring artillery fire......

When I looked up, the sky had gathered dark clouds and thunder at some point.

...................................

Monday, September 2, 1985, fine.

In the sound of reading aloud, Li Yiming was almost dragged and staggered down the stairs, the sun shone on his face, all sweaty, and his trance thoughts made him almost trip over the steps.

"Hurry up!" Mr. Chen, the head teacher, mentioned it vigorously, and his tone was very unhappy.

Li Yiming raised his head, not far in front of him, there was the president's office, and on the side was the academic affairs office, he shook it slightly, his body tried to lean against the railing, and a feeling of extreme resistance rose in his heart.

I... What did you do wrong?

Li Yiming was at a loss, he knew that maybe it was possible... The so-called future, but the unknown of what is going to happen in front of us.

Standing by the door, the sun shone behind the head teacher, and in the dimly lit room, the principal, the dean, and a police uncle, inexplicably frightened made him tense more and more.

Confused thoughts, regretful emotions, restless speculations, heads or... It hurts!

......

The second day of the new semester was his birthday.

It's eight o'clock in the morning, and it's a third of the way today, and no one says happy birthday to him.

His father, Comrade Li Jianguo, carefully prepared a birthday gift and a special breakfast for him.

The so-called elaborate is to carry forward the traditional egg noodle soup, two eggs with a large fried straight and hard fritters.

This structure represents the parents' expectations of the child's academic performance, the egg is zero, and two eggs are two zeros, so a certain food is needed to represent one, and now the full score is 100.

There are not many things to eat, Li Jianguo chose the fritters fried by Old Man Lin.

I don't remember the time I saw it, but Li Yiming began to pay attention to its particularly beautiful right-handed double helix structure,......

It wasn't until much later, until not so long ago, that he was sure of one thing, not all fritters were double helix structures, only the fritter shop on West Street was.

Old man Lin's ancestral home is Tianjin, and the history of frying fritters is as long as 35 years, and he always likes to twist the fritters to the right to the right before getting into the oil pan, so that they tumble and expand in the dark gold hot oil.

His personal hobbies gave him a certain mystical connection to the great structure of life.

In the first year of his fritters, all the biologists in the world were puzzled by the structure of DNA.

The next year, he was still frying fritters, squeezing and pressing the two noodles every day, twisting and stretching them into the oil pan, and there were a bunch of scientists in the world who were much smarter than him fiddling with expensive instruments, and one day, Franklin took an X-ray diffraction photograph of a DNA crystal.

Another day when Old Man Lin fried the fritters of the third year, James Watson and Francis Crick saw the photo, and the blurry and distorted black and white picture made them burst with inspiration.

They began to look at pictures and make up stories, and take a pen to write essays......

It only took a short time for them to confirm that the DNA must be a helical structure, and they analyzed the helix parameters, and determined that the phosphate group formed the skeleton of two polynucleotide chains on the outside of the helix, in opposite directions, and the bases were on the inside of the helix, corresponding to each other.

Such a structure is in line with mechanical and theological principles, because only in this way is the stress inside the DNA minimized, and only then does the spiral escalator of the minaret of the church make sense.

So, should God and science, technology and life be unified in the first place?

That year, Watson was a 23-year-old biology newcomer, and Crick was a physical salted fish who didn't understand genetics, but it was these two people who deciphered the basic structure of DNA and won the Nobel Prize in 1962, while Franklin, who took the picture, got almost nothing.

Old man Lin has fried fritters all his life, and he doesn't know that he is only one paper away from the peak of his academics.

There are many people on this street who have eaten fritters with a right-handed double helix structure for 30 years, and none of them have ever thought of writing a paper on the structure of DNA, and they may not have heard of Nature, Science, or Cell in their lifetime...... I didn't have the opportunity to tell everyone the story of my great discovery!

Therefore, only knowledge can change fate, and imagination is important......

Seeing that Li Yiming was in a daze for too long in the fritters, Comrade Jianguo decisively spoke: Son, the new semester is coming, do you have to study hard?

Li Yiming didn't know whether he should make a wish on the hot noodles, or whether he would blow on the fritters or the bowl after making a wish.

The result of the tangle was just a hum and finished the noodles as usual.

In fact, he wanted to know what the birthday cake in those books looked like, and what it tasted like when eaten with creamy chocolate and fruit.

He also wondered if it was really a happy birthday song accompanied by blowing out candles, closing his eyes and making wishes, and his wishes could really come true.

And why are some people so wasteful, making a mess with cakes and pasting other people's faces......

Today is his birthday, no cake, no candles, no one sings Happy Birthday to him, and he doesn't make a wish!

So, everything is different...... Is it so?

Before the morning reading class was over, he was taken to the principal's office by the head teacher, Mr. Chen, where the director of teaching and the principal were there, and there was also a police uncle.

They talk to each other, their faces are heavy, and they make people feel uneasy......

Are those stories written incorrectly?!

Or did I misunderstand?

......

"Hurry up and come in!"

Teacher Chen dragged Li Yiming into the room with force, and then shook his hand to express his disgust.

"Principal, director, he is Li Yiming!" Teacher Chen said sadly.

The three old men in the room began to squint their eyes like beasts, and looked carefully at the boy who had just entered puberty.

Thin and white, delicate, with not long hair, sweaty in the chaos.

Because of the development, the coarse cloth shirt on the body became short and ill-fitting, the army-green belt hung softly from the waist, and the half-worn pants with light patches exposed the entire ankle, which was obviously short.

But this is also the dress of most children in the school, and it is not surprising, most people only have two new clothes a year, cold days, hot days, in southern areas like Shen County, sometimes half a set is omitted.

On his feet was a pair of arrowroot-colored plastic sandals, with at least four traces of saw blade welding, and this dress was like a refractor to peek out of his home, ordinary.

"Are you Li Yiming?" the principal asked.

Li Yiming moved his mouth without making a sound, and nodded reluctantly.

It would be nice to have a chair to sit on at this time......

No one asked Li Yiming to sit down, and Teacher Chen nodded to the principal and walked to the table to stand.

The principal took out the key to open the phone box, picked up the microphone and began to dial, and the room was filled with a solemn atmosphere.

There is only one black telephone in the whole school, and there is a large turntable on the front, and if you want to dial, you have to insert your finger into the hole of a certain number, and then pull it clockwise all the way down.

Wow~

Hiss~

Every time he tossed the dial, there was a strange and mysterious sound, and Li Yiming's eyes were staring at his toes at first, and then slowly turned to the phone.

Have you reached the point where you can open the phone box and use the phone?!

The thoughts bubbled up in his head again:

Now it is very expensive to install a telephone, it costs more than three or four thousand yuan, and in a few years it will cost 10,000 yuan, but in another ten years, there will be a mobile phone on the street that you can hold in your hand, and that thing is called a mobile phone.

In another 30 years, everyone will be using smartphones, and there is a very famous mobile phone brand called Apple... And the domestic millet ... Huawei......

That's what those stories say, can it be true?

Wow~

Hiss~

Apple is not just a fruit, it is also an American technology company, it has a very awesome founder named Joe Budie, which seems to mean very powerful, but Joe is still dead, because he thinks he can cure pancreatic cancer by meditating, and his idea is also very powerful, so powerful that it killed him...... I don't know if that meditation is considered to be qigong......

Wow~

Hiss~

At this time, the bell rings outside the window, followed by the upbeat march of the athletes, which is to call the children downstairs to the playground for morning exercises.

The oppressive atmosphere in the room seemed so eerie under the impact of the music outside.

How much Li Yiming wants to do the sixth set of radio gymnastics with his classmates outside, but it's a pity that many times things that you usually feel annoying will become so longing, because you may never have it anymore, health, freedom, and family affection......

Will I be locked up?

After a long wait, the principal spoke: "Li Jianguo is not here?"

Li Yiming's fear has reached the extreme, he didn't add comrades!

The policeman squinted, observing this strange child from the beginning, and only at this moment did he frown and put down the notebook in his hand, stood up and raised his chin to signal: "You, come with me!"

......

Chapter 2: Strange Letters

He Xiye sat behind the table with his head wrinkled like a chrysanthemum, and Li Yiming sat on a chair in front of the table.

He Xiye took off the cigarette behind his ear and took a closer look, then took out half a pack of good friends from his pocket, carefully put the Chinese cigarette in, and replaced a friendship cigarette out.

"Got one?"

Li Yiming raised his head slightly, glanced at him and quickly lowered his head: "No." ”

"Won't?" He Xiye took out a match from his pocket and skillfully lit the cigarette, the corner of his eye did not leave the young man's face for half an inch.

"Hmm......" Li Yiming lowered his head and looked at his toes, his big toes moving uneasily.

He Xiye spit a long cigarette stick in front of him, Li Yiming secretly swallowed saliva, and then choked and coughed out.

"It doesn't look like so!"

He Xiye slowly flipped through a notebook and an envelope, his fingers lightly tapped the tabletop like a chisel, and a woodpecker's bubble appeared in Li Yiming's mind.

The woodpecker's beak is very hard, its skull has a wonderful structure, and its brain also has a very strange shock-proof tissue, otherwise why should it not have a concussion?

But this police uncle knocks like this, very much like the one-fingered hand-wrecked writer in those stories...... A lot of a lot, a lot of a lot... No melody, no chords, monotonous and boring!

Why isn't it Hand in Hand Duxi, Hand in Hand Ruidu, Hand in Hand Ruidu, Hand in Hand Ruidu, Flower and Flower Eyes are all Hi?....

Li Yiming's ears jumped slightly.

One two three four

Two-two-three-four

Three, two, three, four

Upper limb movement...

The sound in the playground outside was loud, hundreds of students danced to the music, inside and outside the house, it was completely two worlds!

Lot!

It's a lot again!

The door was pushed open, and Principal Chen, Dean Chen, and Class Teacher Chen came in one after another, and stood in their positions tacitly.

"Do you know why I'm looking for you?" He Xiye asked slowly and sternly with a cigarette in his hand.

Principal Chen, Director Chen, and Teacher Chen, the head teacher, all tensed up with these words, their faces sank together, and they cooperated with the public security comrades to release coercion.

Looking at Li Yiming, who was still bowing his head and silent, He Xiye suddenly slapped the table.

Bang, the huge sound not only frightened Li Yiming, but the three old fish who were working almost went crazy and broke out in a cold sweat.

"I... I don't know ......" Li Yiming lowered his head and raised his head, and said softly with a little dazedness.

He Xiye picked up an envelope: "Do you recognize this?"

Li Yiming's eyes lit up and he nodded.

"What is in the letter?"

Li Yiming's mouth was half open, and he looked dazed.

"Li Yiming, it's too late for you to explain now!" the head teacher added, looking like he hated iron but not steel.

"Teacher... I just wrote... Something that is likely to happen in the future......"

Li Yiming settled down and began to say the contents of the letter in a hurry:

"What kind of war did that American engage in, maybe it was a fool... It's a lie, in order to make that... That old man wasted money, and there are still a few years...... Then you have to solve... Disintegrated ......"

It's scary!!

Rao has already read the content of this letter, and several people here were also frightened by Li Yiming's words, this kind of thing is also nonsense that you can talk nonsense?

Not only did we not dare to say it, but we didn't even dare to look at it more, and we didn't dare to remember it!

What to fight the moon fight!

Where do you know that? It's!

Forget about nonsense, you still dare to write it down, dare to send it, and dare to send it to...... That place!

Just now, the four of them paid attention to see if there was a word "Ten people must be forwarded within ten days, otherwise it would be something" below, if there is, it would be terrible.

Fortunately, there was no such thing, it was not a serial letter, but the kid wrote his address clearly, and said that people should contact him quickly.

Let the central government contact you, please come to the capital to provide for it?

And then give you candy and meat every day, because you know what might happen later?!

Yes?!

It's unimaginable to be so lazy to do this!

......

A thirteen-year-old little hairy child, who has only read a few books, has learned to swagger and deceive, this courage is simply boundless!

He Xiye smiled angrily: "Then send it to... You know what that place is, and you dare to write to it?"

There was another muffled crack, and he slammed the letter on the table, and sparks flew everywhere, extinguishing the cigarette butts.

Principal Chen's eyes were also cold, if it weren't for the person at the post office who was responsible for seeing that the address written on this envelope was wrong, maybe it would have been sent out!

What are the consequences if you really send it?

The point is that this content is really....indescribable!

This is a very serious incident, and the consequences are unimaginable!

Li Yiming opened his mouth a few times and argued in a dry voice: "But I'm a Young Pioneer... If you know that the country is in trouble, how can you do nothing?!"

"How do you know that the country is in trouble?" the head teacher interjected angrily, "Where did you know?!"

Li Yiming hurriedly nodded: "It's just that during the summer vacation, I have been dreaming, and I have seen a lot of stories, there are hundreds of them, all of which are about what will happen to our country in the future, we were slapped in the face and bullied, more than once, ,......"

"Story, what story?" said the head teacher, Mr. Chen, frowned.

"It's just... Fiction Book ......"

"You read the novel?!?!??

Li Yiming raised his pale face, Mu Mu looked at him, and his lips moved a few times: "...... in my head"

Hundreds of books in the head? It's psychosis, isn't it?

The three strange faces looked at each other for a moment.

Principal Chen waved his hand to signal him to come, turned his head and turned to Li Yiming: "What is a slap in the face?"

"Probably a slap in the face... Maybe you mean to be bullied......" Li Yiming muttered.

Director Chen sighed speechlessly, and then asked, "How will it be in the future?!"

"It's the ...... written in the letter" Li Yiming's eyes were slightly red, and he didn't know what he remembered.

"Then you also knew about the typhoon last month in advance?" He Xiye suddenly interjected and asked.

"Huh?" Li Yiming stammered.

"Typhoon No. 8509 is very serious in our country, Jiaodong Peninsula, Northeast, torrential rain, floods, houses fall and people die, have you dreamed of it?

"Ah......" Li Yiming half-opened his mouth and shook his head in a daze, he really didn't see this.

For a moment, his mind was also confused, why... Why didn't anyone write about such a big thing?

The four adults exhaled slightly, and the truth was already clear - this kid was learning about those things in society!

There are a lot of liars these days, and all kinds of rumors often spread in the land of China.

But I've never seen such a small magic stick before, dare to send this kind of letter, is it really a joke to think of the law?

Chiefs have so many important things to do, what should I do if the nonsense I give you a little fart kid affects my body! What if it affects the handling of national affairs?!!

The nature is too bad!

Principal Chen turned his head and said to the head teacher, "You go to the doorman to watch, and see that his parents brought it directly." ”
