Winter 2035
The weather in Guangdong, China, is not as distinct as the four seasons in the north, and there is no snow in Guangdong Province, which is still in the cold winter, and only a thin coat is worn when going out.
Dashu and Li Mowang walked out of the school gate side by side, they talked and laughed on the way with the same Ultraman schoolbag, and the two have always been good friends who talk about everything in school.
"I'm going to be a pro in the future! I'm going to win the World Championship too! "I just finished watching a world championship about "League of Legends", and Li Moshu can be said to be full of enthusiasm.
Dashu also nodded on a whim, "I will also play e-sports in the future!" I'm going to be the captain! โ
"Then let's form a team of our own for the time being!!"
"What's the name of the team?" Big Tree was happy to hear that he had formed a team of his own, but as soon as they took the first step, they hesitated for a long time on the point of taking the name of the team.
The two stopped together, and even Li Mowang touched his chin and thought for a long time, "Or... Let's call it the Don't Forget Tree Clan! The abbreviated is Team MWS! โ
When Da Shu heard this, the team name had two names, and the English abbreviation was also very good, and he clapped his hands again and again.
As the sun set, the two separated at a crossroads, Dashu's home was in the east, and Li Moluo's home was in the west, and it was in this place that the two began to separate when they came home from school.
Li Mowu thought that there would be delicious food waiting for him when he got home, after all, he won the first place in the whole grade in the exam yesterday, but the scene after opening the door made him feel extremely disappointed.
His father, Li Zhize, lit a cigarette clipped to his mouth by the window, while his mother Zhang Mengbai was packing her luggage, not to mention the food on the table, and she couldn't even see the plate containing the dishes.
The home they rented in Guangdong was very simple, and the space was very small, a single room was only 9 square meters in size, and the toilet alone took up 2 square meters, and the room and kitchen were completely connected.
"How fat is the good boy? Hurry up and get used to your stuff and leave. Li Zhize greeted in Mandarin with a local accent.
"Where are you going?" Li Mowang began to scratch his head.
"Of course I'm angry with the United States! Didn't Li Jiqian keep saying that he wanted to be angry with the United States? Li Zhize replied with a smile.
Going to the United States? Li Mowei was stunned for a while, he felt incredible, it was the place he had dreamed of going, but this sudden surprise made him a little difficult to accept.
The team that had just been established with the big tree turned into sand and dust and was blown away by the wind in the blink of an eye.
"Can you go again in a few years, I don't want to go yet." Li Mohan lowered his head, his head was already in a mess at this time, on the one hand, he had the dream of going to the United States, and on the other hand, his e-sports dream, he didn't know how to choose.
Hearing this, Li Zhize was silent for a while, and the cigarette butts sandwiched between his index finger and ring finger began to form a long string of silver-white soot.
After packing the luggage, Zhang Mengbai stood up after zipping the suitcase, she smiled at Li Moyu and said, "Don't make trouble, child, let's go, if it's too late, you'll miss the plane." โ
"But..."Li Mohan hesitated for a moment.
Seeing his son's hesitation, Li Zhize threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground and stepped on it, "Don't tie it, lose it immediately!" โ
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for his son to change into clean clothes, Li Zhize directly picked him up and walked towards the door, and the three of them got into their own dilapidated tricycle and drove to the airport, their home was about ten kilometers away from the airport.
"If you're angry, you can't do anything bad, and you can't accumulate it." Li Zhize stopped the car in front of the red light, and took advantage of the red light to light another cigarette.
Li Mohan sat in the back seat of the car and was silent, he didn't hear what his father said, he kept thinking about how the United States could keep in touch with the tree.
The road was full of old father's chatter, but the mother who usually talked the most sat next to her without saying a word, and the corners of her mouth twitched from time to time.
They arrived at the airport in about half an hour, and it was already 6:40 p.m., and the plane was about to take off twenty minutes before the three of them walked slowly into the airport with a suitcase.
The airport was full of pedestrians coming and going, mothers holding their sons' hands and fathers pulling the handles of suitcases through the crowd, and they finally stopped in front of the ticket counters.
"A plane ticket to New York." Li Zhize took his son's ID card and handed it to the front desk staff, although his Mandarin is not very standard, but Cantonese gives people a clear feeling of pronouncing words.
"One?" Li Moyu heard it clearly, it was indeed a picture, he had lived in Guangdong for nine years, although he didn't speak Cantonese very well, but at least he could understand the general meaning.
The son's question silenced Zhang Mengbai, and the son was also staring at his father, and the three of them were silent for a long time, until the radio in the airport broke the silence.
"Ladies and gentlemen, flight E2G1 to the United States is about to depart, passengers who have not yet boarded the plane should hurry up and board the plane." The broadcast round went through Chinese and then to English.
"Mom and Dad have some things, I can go over to accompany you in two days, why don't you stay at Mom's friend's house for a few days temporarily, and he will come to pick you up then." Zhang Mengbai looked at her son with a smile, and the tears in the corners of her eyes were forcibly held back by her.
Li Mo forgot to know that his parents were trustworthy people, and he often taught him to be honest and trustworthy since he was a child, and he nodded with satisfaction after hearing the reply he wanted to get.
The two watched their nine-year-old son get on the plane alone, and there was an inexplicable tingling pain in their hearts, and Zhang Mengbai even lay on Li Zhize's shoulder and cried bitterly.
"Don't cry, he's going to be much better off over there than he is now." Li Zhize re-lit a cigarette and said goodbye to him in a special way.
The plane was about to take off, Li Mohan successfully boarded the plane with his schoolbag and suitcase in his hand, and closed the cabin door after the flight attendant counted the number of people.
Don't forget to sit in his seat on the ticket, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and as soon as the phone screen lit up, he received a text message from his father.

Father:
After you arrive in the United States, you will no longer be called Li Mowang, you have to give yourself a new name, if you don't know what it is, you will be called Lowa, I hope you don't let others know that your former name was Li Mowang, and Dad doesn't want to make a fool of you.
