Chapter 263, Wake Up
Li He can accept his two crossings, he can accept that he is about to become rich and handsome but still have nothing in the end, he can accept that he has an unforgettable love affair with a beautiful and sad girl like Ji Xiao and ends up alone, when he has experienced two soul transfers that others can't understand and can't understand, he can also face everything very calmly.
But he couldn't accept the loss of his loved ones because of the wings of his butterfly.
If it was just him, he could really be at peace with what happened, but when the result of this butterfly effect spread to so many important people around him, a storm surged in his heart in an instant.
Li Chun didn't answer the phone, but just replied with a message saying that he was in a meeting and would call him later.
During this time, Li He has been trying to calm himself down, but this time, he really can't calm down.
The key now is that even if all this is the same as he thinks, it is caused by him, how should he solve it? Is it solved? This is not an exam, not a competition, not even a war, and it is not a matter of hope that as long as he works hard, no matter how meager it is, there will be a glimmer of hope.
He is faced with the transformation of time and space, the reincarnation of fate.
If all this can be explained by science, there must be no science and technology that can solve his problem, even if he takes the initiative to confess his experience, and takes the initiative to lie on the operating table and let the scientists slice him. If you do this, the ultimate consequence is to be put in a mental hospital.
If all this can't be explained scientifically, then there has to be a God who has come out and told him who is manipulating all this, and if it is God's will, then how can he go back in time and stop what happened after he was born again.
No matter which god it is, whether it is the Lord, Anla, Taishang Laojun, or the Buddha, or even the gods that those unknown small ethnic groups and tribes believe in, as long as he can give him a chance, no matter how much it costs, he will be willing to give it a try.
Or just die again, even if it's going to hell this time, as long as he restores the butterfly's wings to their rightful place before going to hell, and revises the record, he's willing.
At this time, Li He, on the one hand, was turbulent in his heart, and on the other hand, his face was calm, and he even turned off the computer very calmly, sorted out and classified a bunch of scattered materials, locked the window, and then prepared to get up and leave.
He didn't think about where to go, in fact, he immediately thought of learning everything from his sister, but suddenly he felt that it was not important to know anything, all that mattered was to change.
Closing the door, Li He realized that he was too late in the office again, and the entire corridor was empty, and he didn't feel the presence of anyone else except himself. In fact, since Li Chun is still in a meeting, how late can it be? But this is different from other places, this is a forensic building that will feel cold when you wear a vest in the summer.
But now Li He really has nothing to be afraid of, on the contrary, he hopes that there are ghosts, and if there are ghosts, then the problems he encounters may be easier to solve.
With a calm that seemed to explode his brain, Li He slowly walked downstairs from the reference room where he worked. It's quiet, the forensic building at night really has a kind of silence completely different from the whole city with lights, except for his own footsteps, he can't hear anything, just like on another planet, another world.
It was only when he passed the guard's room at the staircase on the first floor that Li He heard the sound of a TV program, but like last time, the TV in the guard's room was on, but Lao Zhangtou was not inside. Li He really wanted to talk to Lao Zhangtou, but Lao Zhangtou's words seemed to be full of deep meaning that day, but he ignored it himself.
"What are you looking for?"
"I'm fine, but I see you're okay. ”
"Don't lose anything, especially yourself. ”
"In this life, who can tell where you are coming and where you are returning? I think I am there, but I am not there, and I think I am not there, but I am actually there. ”
This Nima, Li He had a feeling of lightning slashing in the dark night sky, and he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now that he thinks about it, it seems that every sentence is specifically addressed to him.
I don't know how old this old man is, and I don't know how many stories have been behind that bland face, but being able to stay in a place like the forensic building for decades is a legend in itself.
"Uncle!" Li He opened his mouth and shouted, but no one responded, leaving only a little echo in the empty corridor. It seemed that his voice was noisy, and Li He felt that the lights in the corridor were also dimmed. But Li He was not only not afraid, but shouted again with some excitement: "Uncle, Uncle Zhang, where are you? I have something to do with you, come out and talk about Uncle!"
Still didn't answer, but the lights in the hallway were dimmer. Just when Li He thought something would come out, the lights in the corridor simply went out. Only the faint light from the TV in the guard room shone on a small area in front of Li He, and everything was more shadowy than complete darkness.
Is this a prelude to those buddies coming out?
Li He adjusted his breathing, ready for the most bizarre moment in his life, which he could no longer tell if it was one or two. However, what he was waiting for was an old but calm voice behind him: "What to shout, loud voice, does not mean loud voice." The elephant is invisible, nor does it mean that what is in front of you is big. Say, what do you want to talk about?"
Li He turned around violently, like last time, the old Zhang Tou appeared behind him silently, except for the big sound of the elephant invisible, he couldn't see anything special, and even took a pair of pliers, fiddled with the corridor switch, and then the light turned on.
Ordinary couldn't be more ordinary.
But Li He was still full of awe for this old man with a passerby's face, and said: "Uncle, I'm afraid no one will believe my business." I wanted to talk to someone, but I couldn't find anyone. The more I think it's true, the more people will think I'm crazy. ”
Old Zhang Tou walked back to his duty room, sat down on a rattan chair that was probably about his age, and said, "Didn't I say that day, if you want to know the result, you have to see it yourself, and if you want others to believe it, you have to say it." ”
Li He stood at the door and said, "Uncle, do you know what I said? If I say that I once went back to the golden age of 16, would you believe it? I mean, instead of dreaming, I went back to the age of 16 with the memory of living to be 35 years old, and then I changed a lot of things. I thought it was a dream, it was a good dream, but now I realize that a lot of things have really changed. But I don't know how I can come back, the dream is not over, I still want to do it, I don't want anything else, but I don't want those who are important to me to leave this world because of me. ”
Li He's speech was fast, his voice was low, and his emotions were ...... was a little excited, and when it came to the back, he choked uncontrollably. He didn't feel ashamed, but he couldn't cry if he wanted to.
After a while, Li He tried to calm down and said, "Uncle, can you help me?" I don't know where is in the dream and where is outside the dream, I don't care about this, I just want to go back, go back to my family and friends, I haven't done anything bad, and even saved a few people, if this is a punishment, then it is enough to punish me alone. ”
Lao Zhangtou's ordinary passer-by face was still expressionless, and he just said lightly: "I said, if you want to know the result, you have to see it yourself." ”
"Where to look?"
Lao Zhangtou stopped talking, turned his head to watch TV, Li He didn't know what program he was watching, when he turned his head to watch, he found that Lao Zhangtou's TV had no program at all, but it was like a surveillance video. But there was no one inside, only a foggy cabinet, those cabinets were numbered, the size was the same, although the screen was black and white, but you could still see that the cabinets were old and new, some were rusty, some were like tigers, and they were shining with new stainless steel.
He had just heard the sound of the TV show, although he didn't hear what it was...... At another time, Li He on the cliff, but now, he really didn't take it seriously.
Li He knew that it was the corpse vault of the forensic building.
Lao Zhangtou asked, "What do you see?"
Li He said: "Hide the corpse cabinet...... No, I saw death. ”
Lao Zhangtou said: "There is no mutual life, life and death depend on each other." What you see is death, and what others see is new life. ”
This sound a little familiar, Li He thought about it and remembered a movie called "The Grim Reaper".
Then he asked, "Do I need to die?"
Yes, seriously, he's really not afraid of death now.
Lao Zhangtou's mouth cracked, which can be regarded as a laugh, he said: "If it were that simple, everyone could die and change their fate." Everything that happens to you is just an accident that will not happen to thousands of people, and when you die, it is nothing more than filling in those cupboards. ”
Li He said: "Even if it is accidental, there is a probability, even if it is one in 100 million, there is a probability." I can bet. ”
"What about your sister? If you lose the bet, she's really alone in this world. ”
Having said that, Li He didn't believe that Lao Zhangtou was an ordinary old janitor. I have to say that the current Li Chun is a weakness of Li He, and I don't know how she has come over in the past ten years. If her embarrassment is entirely self-inflicted, then her sister not only has to face the grief of the death of her loved ones, but also has to take care of herself from time to time. Maybe she can survive because she can't worry about her brother. If something happens to Li He again, it is really difficult to say whether Li Chun will still follow the original path.
Thinking of this, Li He's turbulent heart finally calmed down.
Back at home, Li Chun called, panting on the other side of the phone, saying that he was rushing to the parking lot, and asked Li He if there was anything wrong, and she came over immediately. Li He hurriedly told his sister that he had nothing to do, and asked her not to rush, and she was not in a hurry to come over too late.
After Li Chun repeatedly confirmed that Li He had nothing to do, he breathed a sigh of relief and said that she was very tired, so she couldn't come, and asked Li He to eat hot things by himself, not instant noodles.
After hanging up the phone, Li He felt that his resignation letter could not be handed over for the time being, and such a day would have to pass for a while, and Li Chunzhen had to be reassured of him. As for death, it's too uncertain, the deceased is gone, if he loses the bet, what will his sister do? I have already lost the time, I looked at my phone, it turned out that today is Saturday, he worked overtime by himself, didn't sleep all night, and lay in bed and watched the ceiling all night.
The next day, Li He got up and went to his sister's school, knowing that she lived in a single dormitory, and it didn't make sense that her sister would always take care of her brother, and it would be good to go and cook her a meal by herself. Then, let's have a good chat, if you still want to go on in this life, you have to untie the knot.
However, when Li He came downstairs to Li Chun's single dormitory, he was met by a lot of people surrounded downstairs, ambulances and police cars were parked on the side of the road, and the police cordon was also raised.
Li He learned from the crowd of onlookers that more than an hour ago, there was a gas explosion in this building for unknown reasons, and several floors up and down a unit were affected, and someone died in the explosion, it is said that it was a young female teacher, who was very beautiful, always talking with a smile, and everyone who knew her liked her very much......
Li He wondered why he was so calm, he just squeezed to the accident site without saying a word, and saw that there was no forensic doctor at the scene, so he took the initiative to take out his ID and determined that the young female teacher who made people sigh was Li Chun, and he also turned around and left without saying a word.
After running a few red lights in one go, I came directly to the outside of the forensic building, and on Sundays, the door to the archives department was always locked. But as if anticipating his arrival, the door opened a crack.
Li He walked in very calmly, even in the daytime, the corridor on the first floor without lights was still so dark and cold.
The old man in the janitor's room was gone as usual, and his weird TV was still on, but it was a snowflake.
Further on, the small door under the stairwell was also hidden, and Li He did not hesitate for a moment, opened the door and walked in. Maybe there's nothing in it, in that case, he's a forensic doctor who has a way to kill himself. Even if you die and go to hell, it's better than continuing to suffer.
Walking through the small door, it was still dim, and the difference between dim and dark was that it was not impossible to see anything, but it was impossible to see anything clearly. One of the passages in the Asami was very deep, and I walked for a while without reaching the end. This is unreasonable, whether it is the autopsy room or the corpse storage warehouse, and the archives department is just a wall, there is no reason to go for so long. Moreover, the further inside, the passage gradually went down, and stairs also appeared under Li He's feet.
Is there such a hidden underground passage in the forensic building? Where does it lead, the underworld, or the stinking sewer?
At this time, Li He was a little numb, not afraid, not hopeful, and didn't know what he was looking for.
The stairs are going down further and further, the feet are getting more and more slippery, the air is getting thinner and thinner, and the temperature is getting lower and lower.
At this time, Lao Zhangtou's voice suddenly sounded in Li He's ears: "Think clearly, if you go further, you will die, either slip to death or suffocate to death, this is not the underworld, but the oxygen is thin for sure." And death may just be death, and what you have encountered, you only have a 1 in 100 million chance to encounter it again. ”
Li He stopped and smiled, and asked, "Then what will I become? People say that when a person with obsession dies, his soul will not be destroyed, will he become a ghost?"
But the old man did not answer his words, nor did he speak again.
Li He only remembered that he said that there is no mutual life, life and death depend on each other, which seems to be the words of Taoism.
Further on, he still couldn't see or touch anything, but as Lao Zhangtou said, the air was getting thinner and thinner, and it was becoming more and more difficult for him to breathe.
People who commit suicide are going to hell, so is it considered suicide or not?
No, I don't want to die, I just, I have obsessions......

“…… Drip...... Drip...... Drip ......"
"Blood pressure. ”
"Blood pressure is stable. ”
"Heartbeat. ”
"The heartbeat is steady. ”
"Brain waves. ”
"Brain waves...... There are fluctuations!"
"If the brain waves fluctuate violently and the patient's condition changes, take emergency measures immediately!"
……
"Li He. ”
"Lee Hyuk ......"
"Li Xiaohe!"
"Xiao He......"
"Doctor, Doctor, Patient Awake!"
Wake up?
Li He opened his eyes, but he had a question in his heart, where did he wake up?
