Throughout Sioux City, everyone is acting according to a script confirmed by a certain will.

This idea is strange and absurd.

Perhaps, this idea itself is an oolong and a joke.

Before going to bed, Bu Fan set the wake-up time of the four alarm clocks one by one. Although he didn't use the wake-up function of the alarm clock once in the previous exam, he couldn't take it lightly.

I was not late for the first two days, and I couldn't be late for the last day, I must not.

After setting the alarm clock, Bu Fan talked to Chu Xuanyu and Dou Haoran on the phone respectively.

They all said that they had everything they needed to prepare. Finally, they confirmed the time and place of the meeting tomorrow morning:

8:25

The entrance of the three-unit building of the seventh building of the lakeview garden community

After cleaning up, Bu Fan lay on the bed and thought:

Between the opening and closing of his eyes, it was a new day, and the screenwriter arranged many boring plots for him;

He and Chu Xuanyu and Dou Haoran performed hard in a group, got Zhang Zechun, got the college entrance examination, and bid farewell to the decadent life:

……

In a trance, Bu Fan stood on the 5th Road of Sucheng outside the north gate of the Lakeview Garden Community, where more than a thousand dreams began.

Bu Fan thought to himself, this time, the thousandth and ninth dream really came. He had thought that this time the dream would not come.

However, Bu Fan soon discovered the difference.

Although it is still sunlight that passes through the branches and leaves, sprinkling fine points of light. Although he still walks with the sun on his back, stepping on his long shadow.

The difference is that Bu Fan is bare-handed and does not carry a shoulder bag.

The difference is that Bu Fan didn't feel that time was pressing at all, and he didn't run wildly.

Sunny.

The sky is blue.

The road surface is clean and there are no vehicles and pedestrians.

Bu Fan was calm and relaxed, and walked unhurriedly on the fifth road of Suzhou City as if he was taking a walk after dinner.

Suddenly, he saw a woman in a sapphire blue cheongsam, standing on the side of the street, looking at him with a smile.

Bu Fan nodded to her with a smile, like an old friend.

Yingning calmly walked to Bu Fan's right and walked side by side with him, stepping on the road with high heels, her voice was crisp and loud, cluck, cluck, cluck.

"Hee-hee." Yingning chuckled and said, "I didn't expect you to see me at all. ”

Bu Fan said: "I think you should show up, what's so surprising about this?" After all, yesterday I met Zhu Siyuan, who drove an RV, and at noon, I saw a wasteland selling lamps. ”

"Then let's get to know each other officially." Yingning suggested and stopped.

Bu Fan also stopped and turned to Yingning, the two faced each other, due to the height difference between the two, Bu Fan needed to bow his head slightly, and Yingning needed to raise his head slightly.

Yingning said: "My name is Yingning, and I am engaged in the flower retail business. They all used to call me Ms. Ying, and you can call me that. ”

Bu Fan said, "My name is ......"

"You don't need an introduction! You probably don't know as much about you as I do. Yingning interrupted Bu Fan's self-introduction.

Bu Fan said seriously and seriously: "Perhaps, as you said, you know myself better than me. However, that doesn't mean I'm not in a position to formally introduce myself as an equal before you. My name is Bu Fan, I studied in Sioux City No. 11 Middle School in high school, and I am a 3000-year-old college entrance examination student. ”

After Bu Fan made such a fuss, Yingning was a little embarrassed, she smiled and said: "I'm sorry, blame me for not being thoughtful, you need to treat it equally." But even if others give you equality, it is only superficial and formal, and you will not get real equality. ”

Bu Fan listened to Yingning's words in his heart, and said firmly and confidently: "Sooner or later, one day, I will get real equality!" ”

Yingning smiled faintly, noncommittal.

After the formal acquaintance, Bu Fan and Yingning began to stroll again.

After a while, Zhu Siyuan, dressed as a security guard, appeared, and he consciously walked to Bu Fan's left.

The three of them walked side by side to the rhythm of the clattering of Yingning's high heels.

After a while, the black-faced invigilator wasteland appeared, and he walked to the left of Zhu Siyuan.

The four of them walked side by side to the rhythm of the clattering of Yingning's high heels.

After walking about forty or fifty steps forward, Yingning opened her mouth and said, "Yuansheng, Teacher Huang, you still owe Bu Fan a formal self-introduction!" ”

"We've introduced ourselves." Zhu Siyuan said.

"Me too." Wasteland said.

"You're certainly not very formal." Yingning deliberately accentuated the tone of the word "formal".

"Okay, then we'll do it officially!" Zhu Siyuan said kindly.

The four of them stopped and stood in a semicircular arc.

Yingning consciously gave them a formal introduction: "My name is Yingning, I am engaged in the flower retail business, and I am nicknamed the Queen of Flowers." People like to call me Ms. Ying. That's it. ”

Zhu Siyuan said lazily: "My name is Zhu Siyuan, selling poems and wandering routes from afar, and I will die in literature and art." Everyone likes to call them Yuansheng, and I prefer them to be called handsome half-immortals. It's a boring sense of ritual. That's it. ”

Wasteland introduced a little dullly: "My name is Wasteland, engaged in the research and development, manufacturing, and sales of lamps and lanterns, and I am the controller of the Great Bright Empire. People like to call me Mr. Ara. That's it. ”

Bu Fan introduced himself and said: "My name is Bu Fan, a high school student, a college scumbag, and one of the 'Three Heroes of Rotten Wood'. Some people like to call me Brother Fan, some people call me Fan Bao, and some people like to call me big trash. That's it. ”

After Bu Fan's introduction, no one spoke for a while, and the scene was a little embarrassing.

After a while, I don't know who took the lead, everyone began to stroll forward again, spontaneously lined up.

"Now, do you think we've given you the equality you want?" Yingning suddenly broke the silence and asked.

"Not really. As I said, sooner or later I will get this equality. Bu Fan replied firmly.

Zhu Siyuan interjected: "Why do you want such a strange thing? Equality, there is no such thing as non-existent! Even if it exists, it's expensive, not something you can hope for! ”

"How can you say that, he's still a child!" Yingning blamed Zhu Siyuan and said.

"That's it! You can't tell a child the cruel truth too early, you still have a bad taste regardless of the occasion! The wasteland also rebuked.

Zhu Siyuan cynically said: "You guys are always so hypocritical. Bu Fan is taller than us, where can you tell that he is a child? ”

Yingning glanced at Bu Fan with some pity and said, "He doesn't look like a child on the outside, but his core is still a real child." ”

Bu Fan found the pity hidden in Yingning's eyes, and he didn't like this feeling very much.

People with self-esteem and self-respect are often reluctant to be the object of pity for others.

The wasteland also said sadly: "It is not fair for a child to know the cruelty of this world too early, and they should enjoy that simple joy that has no heart and no lungs." ”

Bu Fan did not appreciate Yingning and the wasteland's eager protection, he said: "I'm not a child, I don't think that kind of heartless simple happiness is so good, I'm not interested in cheap things, only in expensive things." Thank you, Yuansheng, for telling me a truth. Expensive equality, I will have, no matter who I face, this equality will always be there! ”

"Why do you think you'll have it? It's something I've struggled for years and still can't get, and I've seen what I can't get at all. Give up unrealistic ideas and pursue what you can get, such as college entrance exam scores, such as beautiful and innocent girls! Zhu Siyuan still insisted on his own point of view and persisted in persuasion.

The wasteland was a little furious, and shouted, "When we were young, we also had the luxury of expecting many things, but we haven't gotten them yet. But the process of extravagant hope is also beautiful, fortunately, you can still hope and dream. By doing so, you are depriving Bu Fan of his right to extravagant expectations. ”

"Don't shout! Let me tell you a story. "In a mental hospital, there is a psychopath who thinks that he is His Royal Highness the Prince, and his fiancée is His Royal Highness, who lives in a distant country. If you want to marry a princess, you must cross forests, cross rivers, cross the Gobi, and defeat countless wild men and countless beasts. So, he exercised himself frantically every day so that he could become strong, able to defeat all enemies in the road ahead, and able to sweep away all obstacles in the road ahead. Doctors are deeply divided over whether or not to tell the truth: some doctors believe that it is their duty as doctors to tell and let him know the truth. The other part of the doctors thought it was cruel to tell him the truth, and he was full of hope and vigor in his imagination. The controversy went on for many years, and there was no outcome until the patient's death. Do you think arguments are necessary? ”
