Chapter 12: You and I Are a Sick Cat (1)

Either way, time goes on, and so does life.

June is fast approaching, and we are about to enter the hot July. Xiaxia's mood is the same as the weather in the middle of summer: irritable and sultry. For a long time, she was limited to small objects like small pieces of paper, which was far from what she had imagined in the first place. In order to improve as soon as possible, she would invite Feiyang to practice superpowers in an uninhabited corner of the community garden after school every day.

On the way home one day, she handed Fei Yang a lollipop and asked, "Why can you see blue dots of light, but I can't see them after practicing for so long?" Are you having any secrets that you haven't told me? ”

Fei Yang burst into laughter: "Just ask!" Need to use a lollipop first, a bribe? ”

Xia Xia slapped Fei Yang, glanced at him and said, "Be content!" It's nice to have a lollipop for you to eat! ”

Fei Yang smacked the lollipop and thought for a while: "Maybe it's because the NDE you experienced was too short." I'd been in that horrible morgue for five hours, a bloody zombie crawling out, uh-" She jumped straight and stuck out her tongue at Xiaxia.

Hearing this, Xiaxia turned around and ran to the road outside the community, and Fei Yang chased after her and shouted, "Where are you going?" Do? ”

"Die! Again, this time it will take longer. ”

"You're crazy! Suicide is not allowed, it opens a wormhole that leads to another terrifying, unknown world. Fei Yang jumped in front of her and blocked her.

Xia Xia was skeptical, and refused to give up: "How cool are the superpowers in movies and novels!" In addition to moving objects, it can also control electricity, predict the future, and call for wind and rain! What is the use of moving a small piece of paper like us, who can neither make a fortune nor make a name for himself? You used so much money from your family in a car accident, and you didn't think about using your superpowers to help them? ”

"Of course! I've tried wires to connect my computer to my head. ”

"What?"

"My dad's stock is trapped, and I want to help him."

"Wires and heads together?!" Xiaxia remembered her terrifying experience of being electrocuted.

Fei Yang laughed: "It turns out that beauty and wisdom really can't coexist!" Look at your pig's head, who said it was a live wire? I'm crazy, don't die! I used transparent glue to glue the USB cable to my head, like the jumping demon in "Ghost in the Shell", so that the human soul and modern machines have an epic meeting... ”

"And then? Did it work? Xia Xia interrupted Fei Yang excitedly.

Fei Yang shook his head, smacking the lollipop and not speaking.

"No wonder everyone says you're cheap! What to sell, don't say what you should say, say a big push if it's useless, say it quickly! Xiaxia ordered.

"It's not that people don't want to talk about it, it's just that the progress of human beings has not been tempered a lot. Teacher Liu often teaches us: if we haven't succeeded in our efforts, it means that we haven't worked hard enough! Edison, the 'King of Inventors', experienced a thousand failures in the process of inventing the durable carbon filament light bulb, but he persevered and worked hard to study it, and finally..."

"Shut up!" Xiaxia is about to annoy her to death.

"You say 'say 'say quickly' for a while, and say 'shut up' for a while, it's really hard for me to get used to-"

"Tell me what happened when you connected the wires!" Xiaxia pleaded.

"Nothing happened, I slept all night with my notebook, and I was scolded by my mother." Fei Yang pouted.

"Not really, right? Why is your mother scolding you? ”

"Yes! People have adhesive tape on their heads, lying on the computer, how can they sleep well?! It's normal to keep some saliva, who knew that the quality of that notebook was so poor, and I couldn't even stand this little saliva..."

"Hahaha..."Xiaxia laughed.

"I knew it was like this..."Fei Yang pouted and whispered: "It's not that I don't want to say it, it's embarrassingβ€”"

Xiaxia tried to hold back, she suppressed her voice, and said seriously: "Teacher Liu taught us: if we haven't succeeded in our efforts, it means that we haven't worked hard enough!" Believe in yourself, believe me, we will definitely achieve our dreams! ”

***********************

So, after school the next day, Xiaxia led Feiyang to a lottery betting station behind the community.

Under the red door of the betting shop, hanging ingots shimmer in the scorching sunlight with seductive golden light, and the couplet on both sides reads: "Millionaire is not a dream in the city." ”

Xiaxia pointed to the playing code trend chart on the wall of the betting station, gentle and passionate: "If we master the rules of the lottery and win the jackpot, do we still need to go to school?" Do you still need to fight with that damn college entrance examination? After winning the jackpot, we are free and liberated! You can travel all over the world, you can do what you like, you can do whatever you want! ”

This proposal made Fei Yang jump with excitement. They first pretended to buy a twenty yuan lottery ticket, and then Xia Xia asked Fei Yang to study the trend chart of the previous winning numbers on the wall, hoping to find a pattern from it. Fei Yang held a small stool, sat on his stomach and sat at the small table, holding his chin with both hands, and studying it with big eyes.

The old air conditioners in the betting shop squeaked, and the old men smoked, sipped tea, rubbed their feet, and boasted about their achievements. Xia Xia frowned, fanned her nose, and after walking back and forth a few times, she patted Fei Yang and said, "You go on, I'll go buy a bottle of Coke and comfort you." ”

Ten minutes later, Xiaxia, who was holding a Coke, walked into the lottery betting station, and she saw Feiyang rubbing her eyes and her face full of tears. Xia Xia excitedly rushed to Fei Yang: "It's successful, right?" So excited to cry! ”

Fei Yang rubbed her eyes while shaking her ball head: "The insect flew into the eyes, you can take a look for me..."

***********************

After many failures, they still did not give up. With the persistence of their dreams and the desire for freedom, they went to the ATM on the street to see if they could withdraw the bills inside. Although this can't be like the lottery to get rich overnight, it also means: how much money you need!

With money, you can achieve freedom: freedom of vegetable farms, freedom of restaurants, freedom of travel, freedom of cars, freedom of school, freedom of work, freedom of medical treatment, freedom of house, freedom of mind! The two looked at the silver teller machine...

β€œOU! Good hi, good hi, good hi yo~ I feel that my life has reached a climax~~ I feel that my life has reached its peak~"

The two of them, who were hiding behind the big tree, twisted their butts and swayed their arms to the out-of-tune singing. The scorching June sun and the steaming heat on the asphalt pavement set the mood for them, and the song of cicadas accompanied them with wave after wave. β€œOU! A sprinkler truck with the same music, surrounded by many vehicles, from far to near. "Wow-" The sprinkler truck scooped up the mud and sand on the side of the road, splashing them all over.

"Dio!" The two of them held out their middle fingers to the departing sprinkler trucks and the crowded cars.

"It's time to witness the miracle!" Xiaxia gave the order for a general attack.

The chirping of cicadas at noon left the wide sidewalk empty, and Fei Yang sat cross-legged on the stone steps of the circular flower bed under the big tree, looking solemn, like an old monk who had settled down. She held the orchid finger in her hand and pointed at the ATM behind the glass door on the street, "chirping wow". Through layers of railings and iron clips, a brand-new hundred-dollar bill slipped out of the bottom of the glass door unexpectedly and quietly, and just halfway through the sidewalk, it was captured by Xiaxia, who had already been lying in ambush on the side. Xiaxia looked around alertly, bent down, and picked up the hundred-dollar bill at her feet.

Easy as pie! The two high-fived and laughed. Suddenly, Fei Yang's smile froze, and Xia Xia followed her frightened gaze and turned back: two policemen in black uniforms and wide-brimmed hats were walking around the corner of the street. Xia Xia was excited and stuffed the money into Fei Yang's hand. Two handsome policemen came to the tree, they took off their hats, wiped the sweat beads on their foreheads, and turned their eyes to the two girls who were playing with their mobile phones with their heads down by the flower bed.

"Little sister, don't go home on such a hot day, be careful of heat stroke!" The wide-faced policeman reminded.

"Uh-huh, thank you!" The two of them were relieved and turned to leave.

"Take this." Another policeman handed out leaflets to them. "This is a fugitive who is being wanted, if you see a similar person, don't act rashly, just call the number below." He pointed to the phone number on the flyer.

The two looked at the flyer, and the handsome, bookish face on the flyer caught their eye. "What crime did he commit?" Fei Yang asked in a whisper.

"Originally, it was just illegally embezzling state assets, but later because of escaping from prison, he killed someone, and now it should be a capital crime." The wide-faced policeman shook his head and said regretfully: "The top Tsinghua students in the bank had a bright future, but it's a pity that the guards stole themselves, embezzled * money, and now killed people, it's really a wrong step!" It's a pity that such an excellent talent! ”

"Little sister, you have to take this as a warning!" Another policeman looked the two men up and down.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh..." the two nodded their heads like pounding garlic, and lowered their hands to watch the two policemen on duty go away.

"What should I do?" Fei Yang stretched out his hand and handed the hundred-yuan bill that had been thrown out of the water to Xia Xia.

Xia Xia stretched out her hand to pick it up, and suddenly shook her hand again and said angrily: "Forget it! Never mind! Sick of it! Put it back! ”

"Okay, hey..."The sprinkler truck rushed from far to near, and the crowded vehicles rushed left and right, just to rub the little bit of car washing water, and suddenly there was a loud "bang", and several cars collided together...
