"Take a closer look!"

There are two typos in a total of four words, and Li Qingning is the most convinced of her man.

But—

She didn't bother Jiang Yang, he was typing fast.

And then—

“…… The doctor said that from now on I should write down the beautiful things that I think and remember and that have happened in my life. ”

Li Qingning blinked, this is a bit wrong.

She could see that Jiang Yang deliberately wrote like this, such as "should", which had already been typed as should, and he replaced it with "because it should be".

Li Qingning remembered what Jiang Yang had just said, and he could still write one with a typo.

Now it seems that this one is it.

Interesting!

Li Qingning pulled a chair, sat next to Jiang Yang, leaned back on the chair and watched Jiang Yang type, watched the keyboard knock, a line of text flowing out of the document, and watched Charlie Gordon, a mentally handicapped person who was eager to become a "hurry name", leap on the paper.

Charlie aspires to be smart.

His parents abandoned him because he was not smart, and he thought that if he became smarter, he would regain their "happiness"; There will be a lot of friends who "wash his joy", he can listen to the words of "Dong's" good friends, know what the "famous" people are thinking, and will not feel lonely......

He's going to undergo an operation now, a surgical experiment that will make him smarter.

And this "close notice" is a diary of Charlie at the doctor's suggestion in order to record his feelings and changes before and after the operation, so as to observe the effect of the surgical experiment.

Now these typos -

Li Qingning lay on the table, with his hands on his cheeks, looking at the screen, and then at Jiang Yang, and couldn't help touching Jiang Yang's head with his hand.

Her husband is really powerful, using typos to highlight the gap in Charlie's intelligence before and after, and at the same time reflecting the tension of the story in the sense of reading, Li Qingning has to say that this is a very powerful way, and it is also a way of writing that she has never heard of and never seen.

But—

Lunch should be eaten or must be eaten.

Without waiting for Li Qingning to remind Jiang Yang, Jiang Yang himself stopped.

"Bouquet for Algernon" has more than 100,000 words, and if it is written, it will become a long story, and the diary method of "close to the notice" is closer to the narrative of thought, and the narrative also lacks the inspiration of the scene, so it is quite difficult to write.

Now, Jiang Yang is stumped.

Because the protagonist had done a series of experiments before undergoing surgery, which involved some psychological knowledge, and some names, these psychological terms were originally quite awkward, and the protagonist was written wrong, and Jiang Yang didn't understand it very much.

He's getting stuck here.

Fortunately.

He has Dr. Zhuang Qi, a psychologist and patient.

"Eat first."

Li Qingning asked Jiang Yang not to call in a hurry, and they had lunch first.

"Okay."

Jiang Yang stood up.

After lunch, Jiang Yang told Huo Che not to go to the store in the afternoon, and after consulting Zhuang Qi, the writing became smooth again.

There is a successful example of the operation Charlie will have – a guinea pig.

Its name is Algernon.

Before the operation, Charlie had a maze game with the mouse Algernon.

Algernon has won all 10 times.

At this time, Charlie was not sad, he just admired the little mouse's "rush name".

But after the operation, when playing the maze game again, Charlie began to hate Algernon, hating himself for being dumber than a mouse.

Until he won against Algernon.

He's starting to get smarter.

He also fell in love with the teacher who taught him to read and write at the former imbecile adult center.

However, after being clever, Charlie found that those friends who "washed" him, those who he hoped would be able to listen to "Dong" after "hurrying" so that they would not be lonely. These friends, their so-called "happiness" is to play Charlie for fun, and they trip Charlie again and again at work; They made Charlie "dance five" on the bar with a lampshade to make everyone laugh.

The improvement of IQ did not drive away loneliness for Charlie, but made the shadow of childhood come to his face.

Charlie remembers his childhood.

He stood in front of himself when he was a child, watching his mother force little Charlie to be a normal person, ignoring little Charlie when he was nervous to go to the toilet, and then pulling his pants and slapping him. And after her mother gave birth to her sister and proved that she could give birth to a normal child, she didn't want to change Little Charlie, however, Little Charlie never stopped longing to become her smart child throughout her life.

The smart Charlie stood in memory and saw that little Charlie just wanted to comfort his crying baby sister, but his mother was afraid that he would hurt his sister, so she scolded and punished little Charlie, thinking that little Charlie was a monster who could hurt his sister.

Xiao Cha wanted to play with his sister, and his sister disliked him very much, telling her friends that he was picked up by his parents, not her brother at all.

】

He would get an uncontrollable erection from his body and be scolded by his mother.

He was eventually sent to work in a bakery, and his parents separated, leaving him never to see them again.

The clever Charlie wanted to turn this memory into a photograph and tear it to shreds.

The shadow of his childhood made Charlie frightened, scared, and breathless as he hugged his lover.

Cleverness did not bring Charlie friends, and his friends who "washed" him in the bakery, who looked down on him because of Charlie's ignorance and boredom, now hated him because of Charlie's knowledge.

And even—

The smart Charlie also unconsciously joined them, laughing at the stupid Charlie in the past.

Wisdom divided him from his friends.

Before, they laughed at Charlie and despised Charlie's ignorance and incompetence; Now, they hate Charlie's ability to know and understand, "Why? What do they want of me in God's name? ”

Charlie was kicked out of the bakery.

He and the teacher he fell in love with also drifted apart, because his IQ was improving, and the teacher couldn't keep up.

As for the scientists-

Charlie and Algernon were just their fruits, and the scientists presented them as "objects" at the congress, as if they were not two lives, Charlie opened the cage and let Algernon run out of the congress.

Charlie smiled as he watched a group of scientists catch rats all over the room.

Afterward.

Charlie found Algernon and went to New York.

At this time, Algernon's curative effect deteriorated, it became stupid, and it died.

It made the clever Charlie realize that the original operation mechanism was wrong, and the operation only temporarily raised the IQ, and then dropped sharply.

He foresaw his future and tried to change, saying, "If I can figure out the results, if I can add a little bit of understanding of the known mental disorder and help people like me, I will be extremely satisfied." Whatever happens to me, my help to those who have not yet been born is equivalent to allowing me to live a normal life a thousand times. That's enough. ”

The IQ of the clever Charlie began to decline.

He began to forget what he had learned, what he had to say, and gradually he began to lose his ability to read the books he had read.

He was afraid that he was getting worse and worse, so he went to see his mother.

All his life, he never stopped longing to become his mother's intelligent child, however, at this time, his mother was delirious and could no longer recognize him.

Charlie also met his sister, who grew up and no longer hated him.

He went to say goodbye to the scientists, "We don't belong to the same level. I passed your floor on my way up, and now I'm passing through it again on my way down, but I don't think I'll take this elevator again. So, let's say goodbye to each other at this moment. ”

The series of typos reappeared in the report.

The power of writing with typos begins to show, from the hard when I first read it, to the smooth, to the hard, and the silly Charlie is back.

He said, "Please, God, don't take everything back." ”

"Please... Please, no... Don't let me forget how to read and write. ”

He has become the old Charlie again, and he has returned to work in the bakery, and it is true that his former friends hated him and felt sorry for him, and now it is true that he helps him out, but he no longer has the intelligence to sort out the logic behind this.

The operation was a complete failure.

Charlie went to the imbecile center again, met the teacher, and told her, "Miss Guinian, I'm here for class, but I've lost my book." ”

The teacher ran out crying.

He suddenly remembered something and wrote a paragraph for the teacher so that she should not feel sorry for him, because he had learned a lot of things that he didn't even know really existed in the world before; He was happy, even if it was short-lived; He was also glad to find out all about his family.

and—

"If you have the chance, please put some flowers on the grave of Algernon in the backyard."

This mouse, it is small, it is only one of the thousands of human rebellions against the laws of nature, but it is Charlie's friend who knows it best.

He remembered it.
