Prologue: Billiards
Prologue Billiards
A street coffee shop that can be found everywhere in North American cities, although it is a weekend, perhaps because it is a sunny day, in this rainy city, people are more willing to go to the lawn to enjoy the sun, so there are not many people in the store,
"We are also scientists, but I think our heart is even stronger in life science." The man looked into the woman's eyes, as if feeling rude, and quickly looked elsewhere, and then, as if he felt that it was even more rude, he moved back. The sight of the eyes made the man very nervous.
"Is this your professional research, or is it your delusional again." The woman said very calmly.
Women have seen a lot of tricks like men, and they have already had their own experience in dealing with them.
"Delusional." The man fell into a three-second embarrassment, then reported bluntly.
Rather than resist, it is better to surrender directly. At least you can leave a concise idea for the other party.
"Oh, try to please me." The woman holds the cup in her hand and looks into the man's eyes.
Because of the woman's slightly intimate tone, the man's obvious excitement increased, although he suppressed himself not to appear so rude, but the woman still observed the change in the man opposite without any suspense.
"You can make a comparison. Those physicists found themselves collapsing in what they believed in the same foundation that those of us in the life sciences believed in. Who do you find more difficult to accept. β
If physicists find that the same method controls variables produce completely different results, then even faith will collapse together. Of course, this perception is entirely conjectured by men, based on the classmates he knew in other majors at school.
If biologists use the same method to control the variables and get different results, it is estimated that their beliefs will not collapse. This is a man's own experience.
Or, in some professions, this is completely the norm. The same drug, the same dose, the same usage, almost the same specimen, the results are completely different, this is completely daily.
Therefore, doctors never conclude 100% that they prescribe any surgery or treatment. And what is 100% given to surgery and treatment is not the conclusion, but the method. What you understand, don't explain, what you don't understand, don't explain.
"That's it." The woman said lightly, not disappointed, nor other expressions. Continue. Or rather, the expression on the man in front of him was the same as always.
Although the woman had expected this expression, the man still hoped for a miracle until the results came out. This is the state of mind of not trusting yourself to control the outcome at all, or to say that you are not in control of the exact outcome. Not being able to control all the results is the normal state of men, and this makes men make all kinds of plans to deal with unexpected situations. Of course, the action of force is mutual. Not being able to control all the results not only brings the habit of making all kinds of plans, but also brings the mentality of hoping for miracles for men.
Hope for a miracle is the philosophy of the profession in which men practise. Sometimes the medicine you prescribe cures the disease without knowing why, or even without knowing why, the disease is cured.
It's a pity that there was no miracle this time.
Men, as always, don't understand men and don't bother to use routines. Although the true feelings can't be kept, it's a big trouble to be recognized by someone who sees through the routine. Therefore, after comparing the results of the routine being recognized and the true love being unable to keep the two, the man decided to follow his feelings. Walking with the characteristics of the routine of sincerity, or sincerity is a man's routine.
"For example, play billiards five times: the first time, the white ball knocks the black ball into the hole; The second time, the black ball flew to the ceiling; The third time, before the white ball hit the black ball, the black ball shattered; The fourth time, the black ball flew around; The fifth time, the black ball moves in a circular motion on the wall. β
"You said that, too, that science fiction novel." The chestnut-haired woman said, "If you publish these serious books, you'll be much better than your stream-of-consciousness books. β
The man's meaning is easy to understand. Universal laws of physics do not exist, and physics naturally does not exist. But biology is different, starting from the beginning of the introductory discipline, it is a relatively subjective, relatively empirical understanding, there is no universal law, if you have to say that there is, then maybe "all living things die" This can be regarded as a universal law.
"I copied it." The man said, "If I were cheeky, I wouldn't mind being a copyist." However, after all, I am a scientific researcher, and there is always a bottom line in my psychology. β
"Crossing? Interesting concept. I'm not convinced, but I'd like to know what the world was like before you crossed over. β
"Actually, that's it, but the relationship between countries is not as harmonious as it is now. I thought you would be interested in the principle of traversal. β
"The end of the world line, you also said this. This isn't my specialty, it's not a big deal that you've fooled me. You can think about writing a script and selling it to Hollywood or something, and it should win an award. β
"Actually, I know this idea from the anime adapted from the game, but this anime is far less good than selling meat."
Du Kang remembered that the stone gate was crushed to death by IS that year, but in the end it became the victory of Lao Xu, and he couldn't help sighing.
"Hi, hi. Is it something in your stream of consciousness again? "Women have become accustomed to ignoring the so-called common sense in men's brains. For those who do research, some neuroticism is also normal. Maybe that's why the men's guinea pigs in front of him are exceptionally well raised.
For a man who raises guinea mice for himself all day long, who is almost twice as old as himself, is still his younger brother, and still has a good impression of himself; The woman thinks that giving corresponding understanding that is not expensive is also considered to be doing a good deed.
"My mother is still my mother, so there is no change of father and mother like the common Gu raising novels in our country, and the names are completely different. But it's not you, you're just like an avatar on the Internet. So, one day, when the image that I am obsessed with that can only appear in a dream appears in front of me, you should understand the reason why I have a good impression of you. The man slowly organized his sentences.
"Don't say these meaty words, you really don't have the talent for this." The woman's face moved slightly, interrupting the man's almost confessional words, "Where are you going to go in the future?" Keep this, or go back to China. β
"I actually want to stay here. But if I stay here, I'll be a CIA. After saying this, the man glanced to his right and looked out the window. The scenery outside the window is a good reason to divert your gaze. And it is clear that reality does not justify evasion. The cup of the man across the aisle from him accidentally fell to the ground. The man's head was naturally attracted by the excitement, and then he couldn't help but look at the woman's eyes again.
Still, there are plenty of excuses to change the subject.
"Do you see the man next to you?" The man's head was bowed, and he looked like he was whispering. In addition, I am afraid that I have just drunk coffee in my mouth, so I have a breath and block it with my left hand, which is more like whispering.
"We were there before we came. I guess I'm waiting for someone. The woman replied, her eyes blinking.
He asked for a glass of water, which was different from ordinary people's water with ice, but water at room temperature, but he never drank it, but kept renewing the coffee. You see, he often looks at the water glass, maybe he wants to observe the two of us through the water glass. "The man is completely delusional, and his brain is running away.
"Oh, interesting." For men from time to time, I don't know whether the so-called common sense in the brain is actually a stream of consciousness thing, or something that is really checked by scientific means, women can always get a lot of inspiration. Sometimes I think about it, if men can be more down-to-earth and engage in less crooked things, maybe their achievements are not smaller than their own.
"A cold, cold feeling, at first glance, it makes people feel that they are killers in dramas, but such people are often not killers in reality. But it's not good to be anti-psychological, and it's the other way around, and it's just that he's a killer. The man blurted out as he observed the man next door.
"It's kind of interesting, it's more interesting than your billiards."
"yes, yes. I wrote novels when I was in college. Although no one has signed up. When the man spoke of the novel, he couldn't help but become decadent, and then he thought of something, and added. Well, the junior college is with us, how to say it, it's a bit like a short college. "Because of cultural differences, men explain words in their own words that women may not understand.
"I've read your X. Very interesting. If you vote for a publisher, it should be good. Maybe you can get a good prize. β
"The dedication of Suspect X. I didn't write it. It's for you. β
"I checked, but there is no writer named Keigo Higashino."
"There is no manga artist named Gomasa Aoyama. You should think that the book was written by the hand. So it doesn't count mine. The books I write myself are all streetwear. Novels too, essays too. β
"Okay, don't talk about that, and move on to the man." The woman said.
If it is an ordinary man or woman, such a tone is undoubtedly rude. But the man ate the tone of the woman in front of him.
Maybe it's the masochistic tendency, women are usually very polite to themselves, but the unkindness just now made the man flattered.
"My hair is so long, I can't wear headphones. Maybe they're listening to us. As for the bugging, I don't know what it looks like. If I were a bugger company, I would make it look like an old-fashioned big TV, with an antenna, a retro one. Turn on the TV, tune in to any channel, don't have any gibberish, turn off the sound, and put it on the exhibition table to pretend to be a postmodern artwork. Get the bugging inside, so that the radio waves can detect that the TV has a model and it doesn't feel abrupt. β
βBig Brother Is Watching Youγβ The woman reflects the man's meme.
"yes. And it's really Watching You. β
"What kind of killer do you think he is, with a knife? With a gun? Or is it used for blessings? β
"Well, I don't know much about the killer industry. Didn't the movie say that it was used first for a gun, then a pistol, and then finally a knife. But his hair is so long, he shouldn't be a close-range type, he should be engaged in sniping. But I think it's possible that they are also engaged in explosives, or eat by their brains. For example, put a bomb in a car, or put a bomb in a building. You look at what he's wearing, and it's not cheap at first glance. The Porsche classic car at the door is his. Maybe it's not a killer, it's a member of a terrorist organization. After all, if you use a bomb just to kill someone or something, it's too low. β
"Oh, why?"
"I'm not in this line of work, though. But I think the bomb is the best tool to stir people's hearts. If someone in the opposite building kills people with a sniper rifle, the people in the United States will react very quickly to the guns, and they will be able to dodge immediately after surviving the first time. Isn't this kind of plot very popular in superhero comics here?
But if it is a bomb, even if it does not kill people, the series of consequences and the impact caused by it are very considerable. If the realm of killers kills people is from far to near, then I think the realm of terrorists should start from the bomb killing a bunch of people to the highest level of bombing people who can't kill people. β
"Interesting theory. You're still not very good at being professional, and you're doing something else one by one. β
"Ha, I'm pretty desperate too." The man was accustomed to the slightly sarcastic remarks of others, and felt that the woman was quite close to what he said.
"By the way, how are you going to go to the CIA. Applied when the FBI helped? β
"How is that possible? such an organ of power. As far as my Chinese-accented English that can't be changed, people don't think I'm sent by the General Staff, and my hometown is in Luoyang, don't mention it. I can't get into the PD if I want to. β
"I've heard of that city, and it says it's a very good orthopedic department." Women still have a lot of knowledge about related fields.
"It's a twenty-minute walk from my house, well, the apartment." The man said this, hoping that this information, combined with the professional field, can leave a certain impression on the woman like the coordinates in her memory. Whenever I mention orthopedics, I can faintly think of this city, and then I suddenly remember that there is such a person as myself who comes from that city and has worked and studied with me.
"So how do you get into the CIA. Well, if it's inconvenient, don't talk about it. β
"Hi. What's inconvenient. It's just a meme. CIAοΌChinese In Americanγ β
"That's it. Then I'm the NSA. The woman said.
"NSA?" The man thought for a moment, but didn't react for a moment, "Oh, is it Nipponese Stay American?" β
The man thought that Japan has not only the name of the foot basin chicken, but also the name of the mud bomb, and then thought of other Japanese spellings in the words he had memorized.
"I'm going to work as a supervisor at a company in Japan, do you want to come with me?"
"What do you do?"
"It's just raising guinea pigs."
"Speaking of which, the mentor said that I would be more creative to raise guinea pigs."
"If you want to go home and get married or something, forget it." The woman said indifferently.
"And you?"
"How is that possible?"
"Also, you're young. I'm almost twice as fast as you. β
"Then don't spend your time with me. I'm not necessarily a good woman. β
"I'll love you when you're at your dirtiest." The man blurted out, and immediately regretted it.
"That's that, Shostakovich? When it's glamorous and beautiful, everyone loves it; Please love me when I'm at my dirtiest. You've started playing tricks, too. I said this to a few women. β
"You're the second."
"Oh, it's pretty hidden. Who, tell me about it. β
"It's about the same as you. One of my classmates in China. β
"It's not bad, ex-girlfriend, it's very romantic."
"Don't mention it. I thought she knew about it, but it turned out to be a no-brainer. I was taken for sarcastic her. The man said dejectedly.
It is for this reason that the man realizes that he is not the kind of person who is suitable for playing routines. It's all a bloody lesson.
"Look for her. Returning sea turtles. β
"How's your treatment?"
"Take care of food and housing, the basic treatment is similar to that of the laboratory here, and I am on the same shift. In terms of commissions, let's put it this way, I'll be your boss. "The so-called boss is not the boss of the enterprise, but the title of the tutor given to the average graduate student.
"I want to ask, does the two of us work together to get off work, or do you go to work and I get off work, and then you get off work and I go to work."
"The one in the back."
"I sold it to you."
"Okay? I wouldn't consider finding a dad to be my husband. The woman spoke to the front.
"Well, Japanese women are more gentle. And if it can be done at that time, save a bride price. The bride price is a lot of money on our side. The man looked out the window again, "Maybe I'll find someone smaller than you." β
"JK, junior brother, you have a lot of ideas. I'm optimistic about you. β
"Thank you sister for caring about my life's events, Xiaosheng is so polite." After speaking, he arched his hand, a Chinese drama character.
"Then get ready. Flights on weekends. Give me your passport at night, and I will book the ticket, and save you money. β
"Speaking of which, my Japanese is pretty good. Let's go there and be able to live in daily life. β
"Don't worry, I taught you personally, and you don't feel at ease."
"Do I need to take the N1 test or something?"
"You're enough for now. If you want to get a part-time job or something, maybe you need to, I don't know about that. How, regret it. Also, I finally have a medical license, so I don't have to go to Japan. β
"Speaking of which, there are legal detectives in Japan, and I'm going to go and take one exam. Detectives are not very popular with us. "Because of policies and regulations, detectives in my own country have heard that there are, but it doesn't seem to be a popular profession.
"Detectives in Japan are actually doing some affair investigations and stuff like that. Those are the only ones who are famous. On the American side, it is your people who are more famous. β
"Seriously, I always thought that Li Changyu was a fictional character. If I hadn't seen a real person, I would have thought he was just like Sherlock Holmes. β
"It's famous, how can you think it's fiction." The woman was surprised that a man who had always had a wide range of knowledge of common sense could have such a common sense misunderstanding.
"It's too godly, and it's close to a demon." The man was not embarrassed, explained.
"Yes." The Japanese also read the Three Kingdoms, and the woman naturally knows Zhuge Liang's evaluation.
