The time was the evening of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and the venue was a large lecture hall in a teaching building of Xiannan University of Technology. It's a medium-sized classroom with a capacity of 500 students, so that's no problem.

It's just after six o'clock after dusk. It's meal time, and there aren't too many people in the classroom, just three or four.

The classrooms are brightly lit. The position of the teacher's podium at the front of the end has a rather obscure existence. A handsome glasses guy sat upright on a chair with armrests, facing all the students in the audience. He was holding a book in his hand and reading it intently, a state of complete self-forgetfulness and immersion.

The reason why I say "eyesore" is because the appearance of this eye brother obviously has a bit of a "killing Matt" flavor. He had a large, bright bald head, and his head looked round and shiny, like the skin of a freshly peeled hard-boiled egg white.

He also tied a strip of bright red ribbon cloth across his forehead. Well, the famous old movie series, "First Blood", whenever Stallone wants to do something serious, he likes to tie a big red cloth strip on the top of his head so seriously. It was a silent suggestion, clearly showing a sense of generosity and tragedy in rushing to the battlefield.

The left and right cheeks of the glasses brother are coated with different colors of colored ink. On the left, a small white pear blossom is smeared; On the right, it's a little scary, a little distorted and hideous with the word "kill" in big red cursive. This kind of tattoo-like practice is more common in the football World Cup, where some crazy fans smear their cheeks like their little national flags.

The camera moves back slightly to see that there are a total of four blackboards on the upper and lower layers behind Brother Glasses, two of which are empty, one side is also drawn with a large white pear blossom, and one side is drawn horizontally and painted with a few strong and upright bright red fonts: "Study for the rise of this school!" ”

The glasses brother on this podium is none other than a third-year student who has made a lot of noise in the school in the past few days, Ouyang Hedong. He called on the students of the school to gather in the school in advance to study and practice during the Chinese New Year, so that in the first week of school, in the game of "Magic University", he intended to defeat the famous and famous super-first-class 589 university in Xiannan District: Xiannan University of Technology.

Ouyang Hedong even threw out the temptation condition that he was responsible for everyone's three meals a day every day, as well as cash rewards for fast leveling in some other game worlds.

It's really strange to say, there are really some students at this school who echoed his heroic call to call, ran away from home for the New Year, and came to accompany him to go crazy in school. Among them, there are three people in Yao Yayao's dormitory.

In this day and age, in the world of online games, there's nothing that crazy gamers can't do. How crazy the virtual characters in the game world are, the humans in the real projection world are just as crazy.

At about half past six, a little girl with a ponytail who was slightly more beautiful walked in from outside the classroom. She put a translucent egg fried rice plastic lunch box, as well as a soup, and an apple in front of Ouyang Hedong. Her lips seemed to move slightly, but she didn't say anything.

Ouyang Hedong raised his eyes and smiled at her very affectionately, but he didn't speak. He quickly lowered his head and continued to work on scratch paper, figuring out some strange mathematical formulas or something. When he carelessly moved the lunch box and other objects aside, one accidentally knocked a book on the podium to the ground.

The ponytail girl leaned over and picked up the book. Well, this is a book of Differential Geometry.

The girl with a ponytail is Ouyang Hedong's girlfriend, and her name is Zhuang Xianhui. She sat down in the front row of the classroom, then pulled a mask out of her small satchel and put it on. Then, he took out a notebook, gel pen, paper towel and other items.

It's winter, and it's not the flu season, why does she have to wear a mask?! Speaking of which, this mask is in school, and there is a little story.

Xiannan University of Technology is a science and engineering university, and the ratio of male to female students has always been seriously unequal, with a ratio of about 7:3 between male and female students. Therefore, the slightly beautiful girls in the school, usually in order to avoid the active sexual harassment of too many boys with high hormones, slowly develop the habit of "rejecting people for thousands of miles" and wearing masks often in and out.

Since the online game "Magic College" produced by Noah Company has become popular in major colleges and universities, there is another layer of implicit meaning of wearing a mask now, that is, it represents the meaning of the protagonist "I am quietly reading books and leveling, please do not harass casually". If you are in a classroom or in the library and you see some students wearing masks, whether you recognize them or not, it is best not to even say hello or not to have any verbal or physical contact. Otherwise, people usually won't be too happy, and will just roll their eyes in annoyance.

Zhuang Xianhui wore a mask at this time, not to read with peace of mind in the future, but to hide his unhappy personal state. Well, if she is wearing a mask, she pouts in private and has a depressed look on her sad face, which is difficult for others to easily detect.

Zhuang Xianhui raised his eyes to look at his boyfriend on the podium, and his eyes looked extremely complicated. It was a strange emotion of crying and laughing, or half-sad and half-happy. It's like a palette, sweet and sour, spicy and salty, and a variety of personal little emotions are half mixed together.

There is a movie called "Familiar Strangers", and Zhuang Xianhui feels that the name of this movie may best represent his complex feelings at this time.

For her boyfriend, Ouyang Hedong, Zhuang Xianhui originally felt that she was familiar enough with him. However, now I feel that he is clearly very strange.

The two have been together for more than a year, and if the half-year period is used as the middle dividing line, Ouyang Hedong seems to have a somewhat obviously different personality, and he is almost like two people.

When she first met him, he was always a frivolous look. Except when playing some popular games, his expression will appear to be a little more focused, and at any other time, he will always be in a nonchalant and semi-detached social state. It's as if there is nothing in this world that can enter his eyes.

For example, when the midterm or final semester is approaching for a week or two to prepare for the exam, most students will seem to be in an extremely anxious mood, with solemn expressions written on their faces, and then they will increase the rhythm of eating and walking, and they will desperately turn the books on the spot. What about Ouyang Hedong? It's still a state of hanging children who will never fall down. And the amazing thing is that he doesn't seem to have much time to turn the book at all, and he never goes to the classroom or library to practice at night, but he can pass the exam in every subject just right, and he never has to make up the exam.

In Zhuang Xianhui's eyes, Ouyang Hedong actually doesn't have too many personal highlights. In terms of outstanding personal talents, excellent academics, and often getting scholarships, etc., there is no drop; In terms of family wealth, deep social background, wearing a famous brand, going in and out of a famous car, etc., there is no such thing; There is still a gap in terms of handsome and tall appearance, high emotional intelligence, gentlemanly demeanor, etc.

He has always had only one obvious merit, and that is the word "obedient".

Zhuang Xianhui is not a traditional girl. She likes to visit shopping malls often, likes to visit every city road or any quiet corner of the school, likes short trips to surrounding counties and towns, likes to watch movies and likes to chase all kinds of "Oba" soap dramas, and occasionally likes bubble roadside spicy stalls in the middle of the night.

All this without problems. As long as she likes it or has a whim, he can always be on call, all kinds of accompanying companions and personal bodyguards, never complaining about being tired, and most of the time he is responsible for paying for the consumption of the two.

Zhuang Xianhui is not the kind of girl who "has a heart higher than the sky" and likes to hide in a BMW and cry. With such a warm and caring boyfriend, she would have felt very satisfied.

However, just like the bloody plots in those popular movies, the so-called sunny days are always not very long.

God always says that change will change, obviously it was still a sunny day when I looked up just now, but a storm could come at any time.

No matter how God changes his face, Zhuang Xianhui will not care. The problem is, how can my boyfriend be as good as an unreliable weather forecast, and he will change immediately after saying that he has changed?!

Zhuang Xianhui shook his head slightly distressedly, and suddenly remembered a famous term on the popular Internet: "snatching away".

Yes, she now clearly has this ambiguous feeling, feeling that her boyfriend has been "taken away" by others, and only the body remains, but the inner soul has been quietly replaced and mutated into another stranger.
