"Remaining life: 366 days, usable life: 365 days."
He looked at the screen in front of him, which was almost transparent but he could see the content clearly, and when he thought about turning it off, the screen disappeared, and he began to think about it, and it appeared again.
After repeated trials and tried, he twisted himself several times, because he couldn't believe all this, he used more force, and each time he throbbed in pain, and finally, after his thighs were estimated to be blue, he determined what this should represent.
Do you have 366 days to live?
But what does usable life mean? Can life still be used for "use"?
But 366 days, he felt the pain in his thigh, not only was he annoyed, but he was extremely excited, and when he pinched himself for the first time, he knew that there must have been a change that he could not imagine.
It was already "two years ago" that the hands could move so freely, when they could still move freely, they donated their bodies, and when they died, they could still make some contributions to society and use them to study this incurable terminal disease; I can feel the pain, which is also "more than half a year ago"!
Although excited, he decided to put this aside for the time being, and then delve into it later, and now he had to figure out where he was.
Certainly not in the hospital, now on the main road.
But this is definitely not the city where I have worked for several years, nor my hometown, nor even in China, so I have to analyze whether this is abroad or in another world...... As soon as he opened his eyes a few minutes ago, he was no longer in the hospital bed, but leaned directly on the seat of a bus stop on the side of the road, got up and looked to the right, and it was the door of an apartment.
Looking at the old apartment, memories of the building popped up in his mind.
"This is an apartment that is more than 20 years old, and the owner of the apartment is a black aunt with a strong personality, and the drug dealer or thug dares to enter this apartment to bully students, and she dares to take a gun and directly pop the other party.
Such a living environment is too good for international students...... Students? ”
As soon as he asked this question, a passing brown-skinned girl greeted him: "Aix, what are you doing standing here stupidly?" Isn't there still practice in the afternoon for your men's basketball team? ”
The other party spoke English, but he actually understood, and the picture that he remembered having contact with the other party quickly popped up in his mind.
This is Aprile Clark of the school's girls' tennis team, a very enthusiastic Hispanic girl, the first girl she met in the United States, and she is relatively familiar - "It's been three years since I've known each other, and I'm a little familiar? What the hell did I do? Aix, are you calling me? Should be...... My English name seems to be Aix......"
The memory in his mind flashed in an instant, it was an acquaintance, and he responded: "I'm a little unwell, ...... take a day off."
Hearing this, Aprile Clark did not doubt it, and responded: "You should take more rest, you have been training too hard lately, Paul has already told me about you, you don't have to worry, you can't stand it if you practice like this every day, and your grades are so good, you can't get a basketball scholarship, and you can go to a good university." ”
When he said this, there were more memories flashing through his mind, which was a recent thing, but he focused on the recent things about the other party in his memory, and with his work experience, it was right to focus on the other party when chatting.
The school newspaper said that the school's top female amateur tennis player was about to compete in the city, and he paused before saying, "Hey, that's all I have to do, how are you, April?" Can Los Angeles number one win? ”
This withdrawn guy actually took the initiative to say one more word! April-Clark was so surprised, after a closer look, this guy didn't have his usual shy and cowardly expression, he looked extraordinarily cheerful, he was already tall and handsome, and his manhood was shown at once.
"City race? I hope to win the Los Angeles championship before I graduate from high school, this is my last time competing in a major competition, I am not as talented as you and Paul, I have never thought about becoming a professional athlete, if I can't get into college, I will learn to fix cars! "When I said this, April-Clark was still a little excited, high school was finally over!
She is telling the truth, although she is one of the best tennis players in school, not to mention the world, she is not the strongest among high school students in Los Angeles alone, she can only be said to be one of them, and professional tennis players, usually already competing in the professional arena at her age, may have been playing for several years.
Of course, that doesn't stop her from pursuing her tennis dreams and pursuing the California title.
And if you can't get into college to go to a technical school to learn to repair cars, Americans don't resist this, their education will not divide "scholars" and "workers" into high and low, for ordinary people, there is no difference between the two paths, if they are all salarymen, the former may be more decent, but the latter has a higher salary, of course, literate people will always be respected.
He said with a regretful expression: "It's a pity if April doesn't continue to play tennis, I thought I would have a world-class beautiful tennis player classmate, you can try more, and you can also try it when you get to college, anyway, there is a lot of time in college, and you can take the university entrance examination...... You've got two more chances to take the exam this year, right? Come on, if you need my help, you can find me, I'm pretty good at learning. ”
April-Clark was stunned for a moment, why is this guy so good at talking today?
After chatting for a while, April-Clark was very cheerful and enthusiastic today because of this classmate who was considered a good friend...... Compared with the way of communication that was too cheerful and enthusiastic before, I was a little uncomfortable, and I left first, not disgusted, pure discomfort, because she has known him for almost three years, and he has always been the kind of person who doesn't take the initiative to find a topic to chat with, and can sit there for a long time without saying a word.
At first, it seemed that because of the language barrier, he knew some English when he came to the United States, but the communication was very difficult, and then he became withdrawn over time, and several people on the basketball team had a good relationship with him, and her friend took the initiative to get together to maintain a good relationship.
Usually she takes the initiative to talk to him, but he suddenly "opened up", which really made her friend, who is very familiar with him, uncomfortable.
Here, he sent away this old friend who had just met but had known him "in memory" for almost three years, and he began to recall the memories that kept popping up when he communicated with April-Clark just now, and the memories that came out because the other party said the name "Paul" was "stimulated".
"Paul Pearce? Is that Pierce? Or does it happen to have the same name? ”
About Aprile Clarke's memory, what the original owner of this body can remember has come out, it was the sophomore student representative who was responsible for receiving foreign students when he first arrived in the United States, and he was very enthusiastic, so he was arranged to take this job, so he was one of the first people he knew in the United States, and then he went to his junior year of high school directly after his freshman year of high school, and the other teachers he knew that day, airport security, and the proprietress of this apartment, a black aunt......
It's after lunch now, and people keep coming out of the apartment, he looks at the high school students of all colors who go out, there are "acquaintances", and say hello, and the picture of knowing it suddenly appeared in his mind, and he responded unconsciously, almost everyone was surprised, the enthusiasm instinct of the Americans made them greet acquaintances when they saw them, but the original body of this body was a withdrawn international student, and he generally didn't respond, but he actually responded today, but he didn't particularly care, and felt that he might be in a good mood today.
It's just that he feels strange, as if "he" is quite withdrawn, why do so many people take the initiative to greet him...... Most of them are still girls.
However, the memories that originally existed in this body now seem to be so familiar, and everything seems to be so natural.
However, he knew very well that this was not the world he was originally in!
In the past three years, he has been lying on the hospital bed, after graduating from college, he worked for two years, his working career has just entered the right track, one day, he suddenly fainted, and was diagnosed with a serious late illness, the previous year was fine, and in the second year, his hands and feet began to stiffen, and then even the feeling gradually disappeared, and he couldn't do anything except lie down and watch TV and read books every day, and later, he gradually couldn't do it by watching TV and reading books...... One day I woke up and stood here.
Every time he sees a "knowing face", a memory appears in his mind in a stressful manner, which constantly stimulates his brain, which should be the memory of this body, so that he knows some things he should know, but when it comes to communication, it is according to the tone and habits of the real owner of this memory......
Gradually, he began to feel less confident - this was really not his original world?
There is a big difference between the original memories and the memories that keep pouring in, and the brain gradually has a feeling of being torn apart.
Maybe it's because of the more and more "stimulus", and suddenly some memories that don't belong to him suddenly pop up in his mind, and the memories poured in like a tsunami, and the strong impact made him faint directly, before he passed out, he just saw a black fat guy coming out of the door of the apartment and seeing the picture of him falling down stunned for a moment and rushed up quickly......
……
Zhang Hao seems to have had two incomparably long dreams, the two memories are intertwined and overlapped, I can't say the main and secondary, but I can clearly distinguish the difference between the two memories, and the memories are fused to the end - now it should be traveled to Inglewood City, Los Angeles, a small town in Los Angeles, USA in the 90s, his name is Zhang Hao, as for who he was originally, it doesn't matter anymore, because he has come to this world and this era.
Gradually, the feeling of tearing was gone, and Zhang Hao had already understood the current situation.
When the memories fused, he quickly woke up, and sure enough, it wasn't the hospital, it seemed to be his bedroom...... Wrong! How is it not in the hospital? He remembered that he wasn't the Ancient Seven?
"Didn't I faint? Why is it not in the hospital? Paul, this guy is unreliable...... Wait, no...... It's great that I didn't go to the hospital! ”
Judging from the current situation, it is a family doctor, although the price is not cheap, a doctor can spend a week of his living expenses for a small cold, and generally speaking, he goes to the pharmacy to buy medicine for cold and fever.
But in any case, it is cheaper than going to the hospital for diagnosis, and there is no need to pay thousands of dollars for ambulance fees, thousands of dollars or even tens of thousands of dollars for various tests and drugs.
As for public hospitals, don't think about it, wait in line, either you don't need to be treated, or you don't need to be treated.
Family doctors are very common in the United States, and most of them are part-time doctors in public hospitals.
Zhang Hao thinks that this is actually very normal, in the hospital, a fixed number of patients have to be treated a day, and the money is always the same, diagnosing a patient every 10 minutes to 15 minutes, there is really no way to be patient, and the prescription is over according to the results of various medical device tests, and they are numb.
The job of a family doctor, although not as high as that of private hospitals, is much higher than that of public hospitals, and as a doctor, you must be able to make a preliminary judgment on the condition, and then conduct targeted testing, unlike entering the hospital and first various examinations that seem useless afterwards, the key is to have enough time for one-on-one diagnosis, which is the most important.
Zhang Hao thought that he didn't go to the hospital, and he was extremely glad that a spirit sat up suddenly, and the black fat man who was reading comics on the chair next to the bed leaned back and almost overturned the chair.
"Aix, you finally woke up, scared me to death, I just came out and saw you fall, the doctor said you are fine, it's just too stressed, I said what do you want to do so much? UCLA doesn't want you, you just change schools and try again, oh my God, I don't want to go to UCLA anymore...... Ahem, Aix, don't be too anxious, you can't stand training like this every day, there will always be a chance, even if your body is very strong, but the pressure is too much and you can't bear it, fortunately, this time you are fine, the doctor said that you are too nervous to cause a coma, let you pay attention......"
Looking at the fat dun in front of him, Zhang Hao felt a little uncomfortable in his eardrums, and he could vaguely see that it was Paul Pearce, the soul of the Celtics team in his future memory, but why was he so fat?
Moreover, the leather team is actually a chatterbox? What about the immortal bird who said yes because he was arrogant and ruthless, and he couldn't be stabbed 11 times? This guy is too broken in his mouth, and others have been stabbed...... By the way, this guy has always been a chatterbox!
The difference between the two memories of Pierce's impression immediately appeared, but it soon became clear that this situation would definitely exist at first, but over time, it would be very skillful to distinguish between "now" and "future", Zhang Hao knew that the people and things in this world should be judged by the memory of international students, and the memory of the future ...... It's something he can rely on! It's a pity that a lot of things he remembers require capital, and he doesn't remember anything like buying a lottery ticket with a million profits.
Serious people, who will remember those things?
But if you have some capital, then many things can be done.
Pierce didn't know what Zhang Hao was slandering, otherwise he would definitely find this guy to duel! He hates people saying he's fat the most!
What's wrong with being fat? Fat he is also the number one basketball player among high school students in California!
Pierce is still in a state of chatterbox, Zhang Hao knows the landlady's son too well, after he lived in this apartment, within two months, he was entangled by Pierce of the same age, at first the landlady saw that the children of this backward country on the other side of the ocean were too withdrawn, afraid that Zhang Hao would be bullied, and his son generally bullied others, so let Pierce take care of Zhang Hao.
However, the two complement each other's personalities, Pierce is enthusiastic and affectionate, Zhang Hao is withdrawn but longs for friendship in his heart, one likes to speak, the other is willing to listen, and naturally became friends.
Let's not care about Pierce, who can't stop as soon as the chatterbox is opened, Zhang Hao's heart moved, and a subtitle popped up in front of him...... glanced at Pierce next to him, but the other party didn't see it at all, and Zhang Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
When encountering this kind of thing, he would never think of telling others to share the secret, the secret, it has to be revealed to others, and it is agreed that this is a secret, this is called a secret, and once the secret appears, it will eventually be known.
You can't tell anyone about this kind of thing!
Thinking that Pierce should have stayed all night last night and didn't go back, Zhang Hao was a little moved...... However, Zhang Hao looked at the changes in the content on the subtitles, and his heart sank.
"Remaining life: 365 days, usable life 364 days."
After dealing with Pierce, Zhang Hao excused himself to rest and sent Pierce away, and began to sort out the current situation.
