Chapter 14: The Holidays Are Approaching (Part I)

It's almost the end of the semester, and the children are preparing for exams, so there is naturally less time to come to the park to play.

When Natsuba stumbles into the park, Akang the crow startles. Natsuba shouted as he ran:

"Akang!

Akon was napping in a tree and almost fell off the tree. I can tell that something big must have happened here.

"Akang, it's not good, the neighbor's brother climbed to the top of the building and wants to commit suicide by jumping off the building, think of a way!"

Akon jumped up all at once:

"I'm going to take a look, which building?"

"The one in my house. ”

Akon flew up and suddenly stopped, hovering in mid-air with his wings flagged.

"Tell me what he's for. ”

"I heard that his father broke his mobile phone. ”

"Understood. ”

On the platform on the top of the building, a teenager stood at the edge, and an inch further was the "abyss" of dozens of meters. There are already many people gathered under the "abyss". No matter how many people shouted and jumped, the boy seemed to be unable to hear or see. He was just talking to himself:

"The world is so boring, everything is disgusting. Whoever wants to stay in this place can stay there, I can't stay any longer, I'm leaving. ”

The raven Akon landed cautiously not far from his side, staring at him motionlessly. The teenager noticed it.

"Raven, you're also here to see my excitement, right?"

Akon continued to stare at him silently.

"Are you the legendary talking crow?"

Akon spoke:

"yes, your world is so boring, it's not your fault. It's their fault, they're the ones who pushed you into a boring world, they're the ones who made your world so boring. You are an innocent victim. ”

"They say that studying is hard and boring. For the sake of the future, I have to put up with these. ”

"Don't take their word for it, they have never really learned in their lives, not even for a quarter of an hour. ”

The boy lowered his head.

"Can you name something interesting, even if it's only one, that is worth keeping me on, at least something worth keeping in my head for a while. ”

Ah Kang thought for a moment and said:

"You're talking to a bird, what do you think about it?"

The boy thought for a moment and said:

"It seems to be interesting. ”

Ah Kang jumped two steps back, and the boy followed two steps forward, two steps away from the "abyss".

"You don't seem to be like any other crow. ”

Ah Kang jumped back two more steps, and the boy followed two more steps forward.

"You have a gray-white feather on your head. ”

The scorching sun had scorched the roof of the building, and the excited teenager had been tossing and turning on it for a long time. When he tried to get closer to the crow Akon again, the leg he stepped on suddenly couldn't support it. The boy fell on the roof of the building and went into shock.

At that moment, the door to the roof of the building was opened, and a firefighter rushed in. The firefighters smashed the door with a sharp axe, and the teenager locked it before. The teenager was lifted into an ambulance. The poor mother only knew to hold him and cry, and the panicked father nagged vigorously:

"I'll send you a new phone, the best and most expensive. Buy whichever you want. ”

There are always accidents in life, and the turmoil will always pass.

When the children said goodbye to Ms. Tian Ding, she could hear the voices louder than usual. It's the last day of the semester and the much-anticipated holiday season has arrived. Watching the last child walk out of the school, Teacher Tian Ding's heart also relaxed all of a sudden. She wanted to go home early today and start a life of her own.

The students left, the teachers also left one after another, and Principal Zhao Sihua was the last to walk out of the school gate. He needs to get all the troubles out of his way. After that, he sat alone in the office for a while. Thinking back to the events that happened this semester, some made him happy, and some made him sad. Fortunately, it's all over.

The setting sun shines on the quiet campus. The light sprinkled on the windows of the classrooms, on the playground, on the colorful swirls and petunias in the flower beds. Akang the crow and Xiaozha the sparrow stood at the top of the branch. The children ran away without saying hello to them, and tomorrow there will be no more noise in the playground. They're a bit lost, but the kids still run out to the park once in a while to play.

Sparrow Xiaozha suddenly remembered a question:

"Akang, do you think there really are 'supernormal children' in the world?"

Akon hesitated for a moment before replying:

"That's not a good thing to say. But I do know that at least one once existed. ”

"Who? Is it a famous big man?"

"Not a big deal. It's the one sitting down there. ”

Xiao Zha looked down. Li Ideal, the owner of the grocery store, sat on his small bamboo chair, drinking tea and reading the "villain book".

"Isn't that Li Ideal? He's a clumsy guy. ”

"He's not a stupid man, he has a long story. ”

As you may recall, I said that there is a college campus on the west side of the city, where Akon used to live. Crow Akang and Li Li Li are old acquaintances, and Li Li Li also used to live in that university.

Li Ideal doesn't speak Mandarin well because he is from Guangdong and his hometown is Xiangshan County, Guangdong.

One afternoon more than 30 years ago, a little boy walked out of his primary school with his schoolbag on his back after school and walked on the sidewalk on the side of the road in Xiangshan County. There are a few small vendors on the side of the road, and there is a used book stall with many comic books called "villain books" on them. Among them is a set of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which depicts those ancient figures, riding on horses, wielding swords and guns.

The little boy was fascinated by those "little people" and stood there not wanting to leave.

And the man who set up the stall said,

"It's okay if you don't buy it, you can watch it for five cents. ”

The little boy had exactly five cents in his pocket, and he took it out and handed it to the stall owner. Then put the bag on the ground, sit on it by yourself, pick up a book and start looking at it carefully.

Before he knew it, the sky was getting dark, and the little boy was still watching intently. There was a hand on the child's head, and when he looked up, it was the father. The little boy looked a little ashamed and followed his father home.

There is a middle school in Xiangshan County, and there is a classroom in the middle school that serves as a "showroom". There are a lot of award flags, trophies, and certificates inside, and there are many photos and pictures on the wall. There is an old newspaper framed in glass. There was a photo in an old newspaper of several teenagers with medals around their necks. Caption text under the photo:

"The Chinese team participating in the XX International Mathematical Olympiad has returned with honors. Li Lili, a player from Xiangshan County Middle School in our province, won the gold medal. ”

This old newspaper still stands in a prominent place to this day. Looking carefully at the date of the newspaper, more than thirty years have passed. That was the first highlight of Li Li's life.

More than 30 years ago in Xiangshan County, the name Li Li was a household name, even more famous than their county magistrate. He was known as the "Genius Boy".

Li Ideal's parents were teachers at that middle school. His father was a math teacher and his mother was a Chinese teacher. When Li Li was a primary school student, his teacher found that this child, who seemed a little dull and listened to adults, was very talented in mathematics. "Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division" he can do in the first grade of elementary school, and he can understand the geometry problems of junior high school in the second grade. At first, the teachers said that it was because he had a father who taught mathematics, and later found out that he was not only good at doing math problems, but also at various board and card games, as long as there was calculation-related, he was a master. Just tell him the rules of the game, and within two days he will be able to compete with adults. The math teachers who taught him agreed that they couldn't be his teacher, because he knew how to do it before the teacher could explain it. When Li Li was in junior high school, he had already begun to participate in various math competitions. From the county to the city, from the city to the province, and then to the whole country, he has won numerous awards. Finally, on behalf of the country, he participated in the International Mathematics Olympiad for Middle School Students and won the gold medal. When his classmates were still preparing for the high school entrance examination, Li Li was already a college student. He was unusually accepted into the university and came to this city far from his hometown.
