July 14, 2045 at 19:31, "Ah, it's so boring, I should still be active." Wu Chen rolled over and stood up from the hospital bed.

Although he had just woken up from his coma, he did not feel any obvious discomfort in his body.

"Why don't you go talk to the guy next door who came over at noon today to steal my fruit to eat." Wu Chen thought as he walked towards the ward next to him, he remembered very well that there was a man named Li Xing living here.

"I don't think there will be a break at this time." Wu Chen went to the door of the ward and looked inside, but found that it was a person lying on the hospital bed, with a vital detection system connected to his body, and he seemed to be still unconscious.

It doesn't seem to be the one named Li Xing, it seems to be a girl. Wu Chen blinked a few times and then took a closer look. only to find that the person lying on that hospital bed had a very familiar face.

"She, what's she? What kind of injury did she have? Wu Chen felt his heart pounding, hurriedly walked out of the ward, and hurried to the nurse's station at the end of the corridor.

"What kind of injury did the girl in that ward of 520 have? Is it serious? Wu Chen asked in a hurried tone.

"Ah, she, she's—" A nurse on duty opened her mouth and was about to reply, then looked at the young man in front of her in a hospital gown, "Who are you?" Are you her family? ”

"Eh, I, I'm the one, I'm the patient in that ward 521." Wu Chen replied vaguely.

"Oh, she's been pierced in the chest by a sharp object. Fortunately, he received timely first aid immediately after the injury, and is now out of danger. The nurse said as she looked at Wu Chen.

"That's fine." Wu Chen muttered and turned around to return to his hospital room. Just as he passed by Ward 520, he stopped again. Gently turned his head sideways to look at Gongsun Hong on the hospital bed.

She was still lying there, her eyes closed. It's like a sleeping beauty lying among the flowers waiting to be awakened.

Wu Chen had a lot of pictures that had happened before in his mind, and he couldn't help but walk in.

The face that had been gazing at it countless times before became clearer and clearer. What was different from the past was that at this moment, this face did not have that familiar lively and mischievous expression under the huge oxygen mask.

"Zhang Yang, you must go with me to see the mecha expo on the weekend." Wu Chen, wearing a school uniform from Majiazhen High School, ran out of the classroom excitedly with two tickets, caught up with his friend, and said to him in an octave raised voice.

"Huh? I'm actually not very interested, or we-" Zhang Yang was interrupted by Wu Chen before he could finish speaking: "This time, there are people from the alien crisis response team specially invited to participate, you must go and take a look, I guarantee that your eyes will shine." ”

"Oops, but I still have to tutor on weekends, mainly because my mother is very disgusted with this, and she will definitely not let me go-" Before Zhang Yang's words were finished, Wu Chen forced a ticket into his hand.

"It's good not to let your dad know, just say you went to tutoring. It was such a happy decision, and don't forget, at half past eight on Saturday morning. Wu Chen said as he ran in the direction of home, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Zhang Yang had to shake his head and accept it.

"Great, this mecha expo also has a simulated test drive link, although it is only the kind of retired model of mecha, but it is still a rare opportunity. Hopefully we can win this opportunity tomorrow. Wu Chen thought excitedly as he put his hand into his pocket: "Tomorrow's number must be—"

"Huh? What about my ticket? Wu Chen's hand swirled in his pocket for a long time, but he didn't touch anything. He turned around and looked back at the ground. Searching around, there is apparently nothing nearby.

"Jingle bell, jingle bell." He called Zhang Yang. "Hey, Wu Chen, I'll go on Saturday, no-"

"Zhang Yang, how many tickets did I give you?" Wu Chen didn't wait for Zhang Yang to finish speaking, and asked hurriedly: "Take a look, do you have two tickets in your hand?" I might give you a more one. ”

"No, I'll see." There was a squirming search sound on the other end of the phone, and after a while, Zhang Yang picked up the phone again: "No, I only have one ticket here." ”

"Then it seems that I don't know when I dropped that ticket on the way home, what should I do, the ticket must be sold out now." Wu Chen held his phone in one hand and grabbed his hair with the other. Several hairs had been grabbed by him and thrown to the ground.

Zhang Yang knew that Wu Chen must be very anxious now, he said in a gentle tone: "Wu Chen, it's okay, I don't have to go to see it, you can take my ticket to see it, anyway, I'm not very interested-"

"What are you interested in, what do you have in your hand? Let me see? Before Zhang Yang's words were finished, a woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Ah, Mom, that's—"

"Mecha Expo? Didn't I tell you to study hard and not look at this kind of nonsense? ”

"No, ah, that's someone else's—"

For some reason, the sound of paper shredding in the mobile phone is exceptionally clear, "Once I see these things in the future, I will tear them for you." Hurry up and review the math ......"

Zhang Yang's mother said that Wu Chen didn't want to hear anything else, what he could be sure of was that he would not get a ticket from Zhang Yang.

"No, I've got to find my ticket." Wu Chen clenched his fists and began to look back along the way he came back, hoping to find the lost ticket.

"Well, so do they. It's 2040, why is there no electronic information storage, and it all relies on this ticket as a proof of entry? Wu Chen was carefully rummaging through a garbage bin on the street.

"Wow, I found it, and sure enough, I was thrown into the trash can by someone else as garbage." Wu Chen excitedly took out the precious ticket from it, held it in his hand and shook it.

But every few times, he noticed that something was wrong, "Tickets for the theater department? Wu Chen saw that the repertoire was written on this ticket: A Tale of Two Cities; the Quanmei case; Sleeping Beauty.

"Damn, no." Wu Chen threw it back into the trash can and continued to walk back. "Wait a minute, Majiazhen University, yes, when I was passing by there just now, I went into the cold drink shop inside and bought a glass of juice, maybe I fell out of my pocket at that time."

Wu Chen ran to Majiazhen University again, walked in, and prepared to go to the cold drink shop to check it out. This is also the time between afternoon and evening classes at the university, and there are many students coming and going on campus. Wu Chen made his way through the crowd and squeezed into the cold drink shop.

There were also a lot of people in the store at the moment, and in front of Wu Chen was a girl with dyed red hair, who was looking at the drink board with relish, muttering in her mouth, as if she was considering which one to drink.

Wu Chen saw at a glance that the girl was holding a ticket for the Mecha Expo in her right hand. "It must be the ticket I threw here. was discovered by her, she must have wanted to take such a rare ticket for herself. ”

Thinking of this, Wu Chen rushed over and patted the girl. The girl also came back to her senses from the thought of choosing a drink, and she slowly turned back.
