Guan Ke had some messy things in his mind, and he staggered to find his home.

Jiahe Century City was built in the 80s of the 21st century, and it is the closest to the edge of the city among the communities established earlier in Pingle City. Heavy trucks roar by and dust flies all over the place. In 89, the government introduced a large number of vacuum cleaning robots, and at that time, the inside and outside of the community were the kind of robots that were half-floating in the air, they moved slowly, and the volume was half the size of an adult. People watched with curiosity as the robots opened their metal mouths and sucked dust into their stomachs.

When the vacuum robot was first put into operation, it did achieve obvious results, but within two days, 80% of the robots were scrapped. The repairman arrived, and when he dug his mouth with a tool, he saw dust pouring out of the sky, making the repairman's already dark face even darker. After a day or two of tinkering, none of the robots were repaired, so I had to ask my superiors for help. After the superior personnel came, they also tinkered for a day or two, and finally came to a conclusion that the robot still had some defects and needed to be brought back for research and research, so they brought several large trucks and transported all the robots away. Do you ask them if they've done their research? The answer, of course, is no, and the robots are still being worked on at the moment.

The sprinkler truck is back in operation, "Jingle Bell, Jingle Bells", Santa's song reverberates in the silent early morning night sky, waking up the passers who are immersed in the past.

Since the robot vacuum cleaner disappeared, the sprinkler truck is back to normal operation, and you can always hear Santa's cheerful electronic music in the early hours of Monday morning. However, the work of a sprinkler truck is only a drop in the bucket, and after Monday, dust still fills the air.

Guan Ke's mood was a little better, and he looked up at the number on the building, forty-four, what a damn number. The stairs of Building 44 were lined with white garbage, and on the handrails was a thin layer of dust.

He staggered to his home, room 404, another damn number. This number seems to have foreshadowed his future.

Closing the door, he found the couch in the darkness, and the guest immediately lay down.

He had a dream in which he was standing on an asphalt road with an old 7.62mm sniper rifle. There was a faint shouting from behind. Not far away, a woman who couldn't see her face scanned nervously around, unaware that she was standing in the middle of the road.

A blinding light came from a distance, and the gate closed his eyes, and soon opened them again. Before closing his eyes, the bright red car was still at the end of the road, and when he opened his eyes, it was less than 100 meters away from the woman who was scanning around.

He knew that the end of death had been waiting for him, and if he could save someone's life, even if it had brought this final moment earlier, it would be worth it.

A group of men dressed in light gray clothes rushed around the corner and raised their guns one after another.

The customs guest didn't even look at them, and ran towards the strange woman.

The light source in his eyes grew brighter and brighter, eventually taking over his entire field of vision. The passer pushed the strange woman away, and he was knocked out by the speeding red car.

He spun around in the air for an unknown number of times, and finally smashed against the wall of a commercial building and fell into the dust......

Guan Ke sat up from the sofa at once, gasped for air, took a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator, and drank most of the bottle before feeling a little at ease.

For the last few years, he has been having this strange dream. Although I always wake up from my sleep, this way of dying is really good, and it is much more comfortable than lying in a hospital bed and waiting for death to approach.

During last year's graduation physical examination, Guan Ke was diagnosed with a brain tumor, and he remembered that the doctor pointed to the CT scan, pointed to a black area in the upper part of the skull, and said, "Do you see this shadow, according to our observation, it is slowly expanding." Do you usually have any symptoms of dizziness or memory loss?"

"Sometimes my head hurts a little bit, but after a while it gets better. My memory has not deteriorated, but I remember it more and more clearly. ”

The doctor glanced at Guan Ke and said, "We were diagnosed, it should be a brain tumor, and it is not an ordinary brain tumor." Judging by the indicators in your body, your strength is decreasing, but your brain is becoming more active. According to common sense, if a person has a brain tumor, his health indicators in all aspects of his body will decline, including memory, and you are the opposite, as if ......" The doctor suddenly stopped and did not speak.

"Like there's another monster hiding in my body?"

"Yes, this monster seems to be trying to lower your defenses in order to wrest control of your body. ”

Guan Ke thought that his face must have been ugly at that time, and he expressed doubts about the doctor's diagnosis, and for the first time in his life, he expressed his doubts in a higher octave tone: "Doctor, are you joking with me! We are now living in the 30th century, which is an objective reality, and you told me that there is a little monster living in my body? You have watched too much Japanese anime, right?"

The doctor looked at him again, and there was pity in his eyes. "Actually, it's the first time we've seen the disease," he said. In the past millennium, there have been countless diseases, but none of them are as special or strange as yours. Do you know what's the most surprising thing?" the doctor pointed to the shadowed part of the CT image, "It looks like it's alive." ”

Guan Ke sneered with a pale face: "It seems that you have indeed watched too many anime." I don't think you should treat others, but you should see yourself first. When a doctor is sick, it is difficult for him to find out, so you should carefully find a psychiatric hospital to take a good look. ”

"Closer, you have to trust our judgment. We've had forty or fifty years of experience with brain tumors, and we've been going back and forth in the conference room several times before we finally tell you what we've got. ”

"Liars, doctors are scammers who want to make money. There was a loud bang as the gate closed.

Although Guan Ke said that he didn't believe it, he believed it in his heart. I can see the future myself, what else can't happen?

The doctor instructed him to come to the hospital for check-ups frequently, and the customer only listened to the wind, and even walked around when he came to the hospital.

Thinking about these things, the sky outside was already bright before I knew it. Still feeling thirsty, the customer opened the refrigerator and took out the last bottle of mineral water.

His head began to ache again, and his temples spasmed. Every time he had such an attack, he would do nothing but quietly look out the window at the blue sky, quietly waiting for the pain to pass. When I drank half a bottle of water in one go, the pin-like tingling sensation in my temples seemed to be slightly lessened, or the numbness caused by the long-term tingling pain. Bean-sized beads of sweat spread all over his face, and he didn't wipe them, letting them roll down his cheeks.

Whenever this symptom occurs, Guan Ke will consciously think about the time he and Runke spent together. He liked her long soft hair and gentle smile, and she loved her bright eyes. He likes to take her to the movie park to see funny movies. At that time, Runke looked at the big screen intently, and he looked at Runke from time to time.

After the pain passed, the customs customer took his ID and went to the nearest Internet café, and after paying the money, he found a chair and sat down.

Morning is the least crowded time in the Internet café, the all-night players have already left, and the next day's players have not yet arrived. The staff at the internet café usually cleans up during this time, cleaning the floor and the tabletop.

Guan Ke turned on the computer, lay down in a chair, and closed his eyes. His head began to ache again. Smelling the smell of disinfectant water in the air, I waited quietly for a while. When the headache was over, he found the mouse on the still damp desktop and opened the "Last Man" game.

The customs guest is reluctant to meet any acquaintances, even those who have a one-sided origin. He wanted to wander away from the world, quietly waiting for the final arrival. In fact, he also thought about suicide, but those processes were too painful, and he didn't want to suffer those pains. Like the ancients, hanging themselves from a beam, the rope tightened their necks, and they couldn't breathe, which must have been very uncomfortable. If you choose to jump off the building, the moment you hit the ground must be extremely painful. Cutting your wrists and wiping your neck is so bloody that it scares you. He once saw a report on foreigners choosing euthanasia in an article, and he was moved, so he made a long-distance call for consultation, and the staff there said: "Hello, sir, what do you want to consult?"

"Euthanasia. ”

"Okay, wait a minute. We have three products here, the first one is the S296 model, which will definitely meet your requirements, and after the injection, you will definitely see God within three minutes. The second product is the S375 type product, and after the injection, you will fall into a sweet dream and gradually lose consciousness. ”

"What's the difference between this and taking too much sleeping pills?"

"Of course, there is a difference, one is a medicine, which needs to be taken orally, and the other can be achieved by just injecting. ”

When the customer listens to this nonsense reason, he hangs up the phone.

"Sir, don't hang up the phone, we have a third product here. The third product is the S484 type product, after the injection, we guarantee that there are absolutely no side effects, and the effect is immediate, and there will be no pain at all. ”

Guan Ke listened to these absurd reasons, and thought to himself that you are a fool when you are a person, and you have to cheat money with a little sincerity. The gateway shouted into the microphone, "Madam, I don't need your product, but you can try it yourself." ”
