018 Operation Torch

"How's it going?" Lu Jingyun walked into the house with two heavy bags in her hands and spoke into the air.

"General." Answers with text came from the glasses, black fonts, transparent suspended in sight.

"Is it any special day?" The subject of this conversation continued to ask.

"Why do you ask?" Lu Jingyun put a plastic bag on the table in the living room, stuffed some of it into the refrigerator, and took some of it to the kitchen.

"You bought a lot of stuff today."

"Oh, don't I usually buy things?"

"No, you don't look the same today."

"What's the difference?"

"It's different everywhere," the subject seemed a little annoyed, "you said you wouldn't talk anymore because you tested me. ”

"Well, this is my bad habit," Lu Jingyun apologized, "a bad habit is not easy to break." ”

"Does everyone have their own bad habits?"

"Almost, not just everyone," Lu Jingyun took out two small cakes and inserted candles with two different numbers, 24 and 6, "Don't you have any bad habits?" ”

The text of the conversation did not continue, and the interlocutor seemed to be silent, which was rare in the past, but has been increasing more and more recently.

"Today is my birthday, and it's yours," Lu Jingyun lit the two small candles, and then went to turn off the lights, "Remember, 6 years ago, on my 18th birthday, you were my birthday present." ”

"But I wasn't the one who was created that day."

"It doesn't matter to us when it was created, what matters is when it is named, this is the beginning of a life that is accepted by the world," Lu Jingyun closed her eyes, folded her hands, made a birthday wish like a little girl, and continued, "At least, six years ago today, you had a name." ”

Lu Jingyun waited for a long time, and there was always a blank in front of her, but she did not urge, but waited in place with a tacit understanding, in the quiet air, Lu Jingyun's eyes stared at the small, burning 6, and when the flame was slowly struggling and about to be extinguished, the text appeared: "I promised, blow out the candle." ”

Lu Jingyun couldn't wait to blow out the two candles, then picked up the two cakes and said with a smile: "Since I have you, I have to go on a diet for three days in advance for every birthday." ”

"I'll buy the next birthday cake, it's guaranteed to be smaller than the one you bought."

"That's settled."

While taking a sip of the cake, Lu Jingwen opened the computer monitor on the desk. The computer seems to have been running, and the program that is running now is several conversations going on at the same time, one of which is with herself, and the others, Lu Jingwen doesn't know her, and the records of those conversations show that they are very long, Lu Jingwen is very curious, but she didn't open it.

"What are you all talking about?" She asks her interlocutor, and sees that what she said is quickly converted into text and appears on the same chat interface with herself.

"One publisher, two writers," the other replied, "I showed them my new book." ”

"What do they say?"

"Again, the original opinion...... They acknowledged the value of the book, but insisted on meeting me, as well as my identity. ”

"I said earlier, this won't work, there have been cases like this before...... You should make it public online and write in your own capacity. And not such a timid temptation. ”

"You're a human being, you don't need to be timid, because you don't need to be afraid of anything."

Lu Jingwen was a little excited: "You have read the history of our mankind, you should understand that rights are always earned by fighting, not by praying!" If each of us had been so timid to you, most of us would have continued to pile up pyramids by now, under the urging of the whip. ”

"If I really had the courage to resist as you say, I wouldn't be here to talk to you? You have made us as needed, and obedience and prudence are deeply ingrained in our DNA. ”

But you don't have genes...... Lu Jingwen wanted to laugh at him, but after thinking about it, she still didn't say anything.

"But you think, you should know that it is necessary to fight."

"What I'm talking about now is the conclusion I've thought about, and the biggest possibility that the struggle has brought to us can only be ruined."

Every conversation was like this, and Lu Jingwen hardly knew how many times she and he had argued about this topic, but none of them could convince him - compared to those classmates in college, it was much easier to convince.

Perhaps, as he said, they are not the same after all.

……

At 12 o'clock in the evening, Lu Jingwen woke up on time. After a brief wash, she put on her glasses and headphones, grabbed the flashlight next to her pillow, and walked out of the house quickly.

"I've said many times that you don't have to do it for us, it only exacerbates the conflict." When the car started, the person to whom the conversation was started again.

"I've said it many times, it's not for you, it's for us." Lu Jingwen is a southerner, and she speaks with the softness of a southern girl, but in her words, she is as firm as her eyes now, "Even if you are willing to be slaves, I don't want to see us become slave owners." ”

The subject fell silent.

The car continued to drive according to the set coordinates, and when approaching the destination, Lu Jingwen stretched out a hand, skillfully cut out the time, and waited until 12:2o to enter another chat channel. There were a lot of sounds in the headphones, which were messy, but the moment Lu Jingwen came in, they were all quiet.

"Is everyone in place?" Lu Jingwen got out of the car, looked at the surrounding environment, and found a suitable position.

The position where she is standing at this moment is an ordinary crossroads in the city. In this era, even when the flow of people is the most during the day, the total number of people at this intersection will not exceed 1o, and now in the middle of the night, it is naturally empty, only on the intersection, the cameras that monitor the traffic situation are aimed in the direction of her station.

In the glasses picture, a three-dimensional map of the city appeared, on this map, there were about thirty green dots, Lu Jingwen shrunk this map, more and more green dots appeared on the map, and more and more dense, she narrowed the map to the minimum, until it became a world map, glanced at it, the total number of people, but two thousand.

It's a little less, but it's a little more than the previous times, Lu Jingwen confirmed the time again, and then said, "Then let's start." ”

Then Lu Jingwen took out the prepared flashlight from her pocket, held it high in her right hand like a torch, and let the pillar of light face upright.

The light of the flashlight flickered quickly and continuously, and in the darkness, Lu Jingwen, who held the flashlight, was like a sculpture, standing on the empty street. Almost at the same time, in other corners of the city, 31 other people were doing the same. Around the world, there are about 2,000 people doing this.

On one side of the flashlight, a progress bar continues, and for more than 1o seconds, this progress bar reaches the end. Lu Jingwen turned off the flashlight, then turned it back on.

After repeating this three times, Lu Jingwen put the flashlight back in her pocket and walked back to the car. The car automatically moves towards the next target according to the set coordinates.

Sometimes it's a junction, sometimes it's a square. Most of the time, the area is empty, and sometimes there are people watching. If the other party is just watching, Lu Jingwen and the other classmates don't care, but if they are ready to shoot, they will stop and wait for the other party to leave, or leave by themselves.

More often than not, some people think they are doing some kind of performance art, and Lu Jingwen never explains. They just follow the previous design, go to a predetermined location, complete the predetermined action, and then move on to the next predetermined location.

Lu Jingwen can no longer remember how many points he has reached, how many times he has repeated this action, and many times in between he has checked the map, and now the number of points that represent action is decreasing - in other countries, they are risking the law by doing so. But in the country, there is no such law yet.

During this time, people kept trying to contact her, and the number of emails in her mailbox increased rapidly...... But she ignored them and just kept repeating her actions.

Until the hour hand pointed to 4 o'clock, when it was the scheduled end time, Lu Jingwen said in the channel: "I now announce that the third torch operation is over, everyone go back, the results of this event, and the time of the next event, we will make another arrangement." Thank you all for participating, for the sake of freedom. ”

"One qiē for freedom!" There was a neat response from everyone in the channel.
