Earth, at 20:20:20 on February 8, 2020 Beijing time, a beam of white light flew out from the depths of the universe.

And at the same time that this white light flew out of the universe, at a chaotic junction outside the universe, the four big bosses in four directions sensed it one after another.

There is one in each direction, and look at these four big guys.

The long-bearded old man in the Taoist robe opened his eyes and gently read out the word: "Good." "As soon as the word came out, there was a vision of heaven and earth, and the place where it was chaotic and surging to form ripples.

The Buddhist people sitting on the ground in sand clothes under the Bodhi tree also paused at this time, and then chanted "Amitabha", and the Bodhi tree behind him followed by a burst of sound, and the windless leaves rose spontaneously.

Under the grass hut, an old man was frowning and writing, a tall old man, but at this moment he kept lifting the pen and writing like a god.

In the last place, a figure sat high on top of a majestic hall, but his face that had not changed for eternity showed a complicated expression.......

--------------

Li Caoben, age, 22 years old, male, fond of beautiful women. An otaku who has just graduated from a second major, looks ordinary, belongs to the kind that will not make a woman's eyes shine, and will not be boring, and has been single for more than 22 years. At this moment, Li Caoben is wearing a set of cotton blue and white striped pajamas, nesting in a computer chair while eating a large bucket of instant noodles while watching "Life in a Different World from Zero", which is his favorite anime, there is no one.

At this time, Li Caoben has been in a small rental house in Los Angeles for more than ten days without going out, and the Spring Festival of 2020 is destined to be an extraordinary year when the epidemic is affected. This is even worse for him who has just graduated, he just found a job and is ready to do a big job during this Spring Festival, but he didn't expect a bat to disrupt Li Caoben's plan, and only a few duck feathers were left in hand.

Li Caoben's boss needs a young man to stay in the company during the Spring Festival, plus subsidies and the boss's personal red envelope, the Spring Festival is a thousand oceans a week, and the usual salary is a month. Unexpectedly, a total of 14 days, a total of 6,000 oceans, were delayed by this epidemic. Fortunately, the boss is a good person, although he did not pay his salary, but the personal red envelope promised by the boss is a lot of a thousand Mao Grandpa, otherwise he can't go home and has a shy Li herb, so he can only borrow money from his good brother to get by.

Even so, plum herb as a flower growing under the red flag, the pillar of the motherland (the pillar of the immortal also has a useful place). I still sincerely hope that the motherland can get through this epidemic, and I also hope that the people of Wucheng can be safe and sound.

Colleagues and friends have asked Li Caoben why he didn't go home for the New Year? Li Caoben said with a sneer: "Suffer hardships and marry a girlfriend who is still in elementary school as soon as possible."

Colleagues and friends laughed and said, "You haven't woken up yet."

Li Caoben was not annoyed and replied: "There are still daydreams, otherwise it will not be enough to make salted fish." ”

As for the truth, Li Herb is just a dead duck with a hard mouth and a bitter heart. If you are a rich second generation, a genius, a handsome guy, and have the power in your family, even if you have one of them, who wants to wander outside during the Spring Festival. You must know that those of the same generation in the family are either still young and in elementary and high school, or they are married and have children.

Li Caoben is 22 years old, if he wants a career or not, if he wants to be talented or not, he can't eat with his face, and it's already good to ask for money from his family, let alone support his parents. Don't talk about children, you don't even have an object, are you embarrassed to go home for the New Year to pick up the red envelopes handed to you by your uncles and grandparents, anyway, Li Herb has no face to go back, just two words: young people, good noodles!

"Buzz, who's a single dog, you're a single dog."

As the mobile phone rang, Li Caoben put down the instant noodle bucket in his hand and picked up a certain V mobile phone that he had bought with a huge amount of money two years ago, only to see that the remarks on the screen were marked "Mother and Lord".

Li Caoben hurriedly swallowed a mouthful of instant noodles in his mouth, and only answered the phone after the video was muted.

At this time, a familiar voice came from the microphone, and Li Caoben listened to the familiar nagging voice of his mother for more than 20 years, and responded with a mumm-huh. Although the family is not rich, Li Herb has not suffered much since he was a child, and at this moment, listening to the impatient nagging voice in the past is so kind.

Mother Li also knows her baby son well, and after nagging for a while, she asked: "Today is the Lantern Festival, have you eaten rice balls?"

Li Caoben also replied with a smile: "Mom, I don't worry, when did you treat yourself badly, eat fragrant and drink spicy here, and the rice balls are also big." I'm fine here, there are no infections around the community, the community also delivers food to the door, and I also learned a few new dishes to cook at home for you to eat.

And the boss is also very good to me, and the salary is paid to me in advance, so you and your father don't have to worry about me. However, I heard that there are infections at home, so you should be careful when you are older, if you can not go out, you must wear a mask when you go out. ”

Mother Li was a lot relieved when she heard her son's words, and replied softly: "If your son has something to do, call your mother and take care of yourself, your father is too, I don't think my son will call by himself......"

At this time, there was a coughing sound on the phone, Li Caoben smiled knowingly, and chatted with Li's father for a while, and when he hung up the phone, it had been more than an hour.

Li Caoben put down the phone and took a look at the instant noodles, only half of the instant noodles were already cold, Li Caoben frowned, or took the instant noodles out to clean up, and when he came back, he picked up the phone and saw that the mobile phone screen was on, and it turned out that Li's mother had transferred 1,000 yuan, and the remarks were: Son, take care of yourself.

Li Caoben blinked his slightly moist eyes, sighed and snuggled up in the computer chair to watch "Life in a Different World from Zero", silently thinking that it would be good if he had a golden finger and a system like what was written in the novel.

-----------

At this moment, that beam of white light pierced through the void, crossed the long river of time and crossed the ten thousand worlds, and pierced into the eyebrows of Li Caoben from outside the sky.

Li Caoben, who was muttering to himself in his heart, became more and more relaxed in his body nested in the gaming chair, and his eyelids began to nap. Li Caoben tried hard to open his eyes, but he couldn't do anything, as if he hadn't slept for three days and three nights, his eyes were black, and he finally fell into boundless darkness, and he was no longer conscious.

It was as if the sleeping Li herb was lying on the gaming chair, and the sound of his heart beating began to weaken. If you put an ECG monitor on him, you can find that the amplitude of the heart's beating is decreasing little by little, until it no longer fluctuates, and finally becomes a straight line without any twists and turns.

Li Caoben, male, died at the age of 22, suddenly.

It was already a day after Li Caoben's body was found, and the staff who delivered the vegetables in the community found that Li Caoben could not be contacted, and finally contacted the landlord Aunt Zhao to open the door only to find Li Caoben, who was cold and had no breathing for a long time.

Los Angeles Long District Police Station.

"Police boy, you have to make the decision for me, Li Caoben's death really has nothing to do with me, I don't believe you asked Xiaolin, when we went in, we found that he was dead, and he was evil." Aunt Zhao, the landlord wearing a mask, stood next to the chair and said, although the mask covered her face, her eyes still showed uneasiness.

"Yes, Uncle Policeman, I also think it's time to deliver food to the herbs, I didn't expect this to happen, if there is anything we need help with, just say it, we will actively cooperate. Xiao Lin, the community side dish with a mask, is calmer, after all, the house is not his own, and the person is not killed by himself, I believe that as long as the police investigate clearly, there will be no problem.

Xiao Li, a police officer who was also affected by the epidemic and wore a mask, comforted and said: "Don't worry, I invite you to come here this time, mainly because you two are the first witnesses at the death scene, so please come to the police station to make a record." As for the follow-up, we need to wait for other colleagues to complete the investigation and make the autopsy report, and we will notify you two again, and then ask you to cooperate with me to complete the work of the transcript. ”

Aunt Zhao and Xiao Lin hurriedly responded and said that they would actively cooperate with the police.

--------------

Autopsy report.

Li Caoben, male, 22 years old, Yuzhou Yuanqiren.

Cause of death: myocardial strain, resulting in insufficient oxygen supply.

Exclude homicide and food poisoning.

--------------

Xiao Li walked out of the archive room with the autopsy report and Captain Wang Fuqiang. "Captain Wang, didn't he really kill Li Caoben when he died?" asked Officer Xiao Li.

"Xiao Li, it's good for you to think more as a policeman, but Li Herb did die of natural causes, don't think about it. ”

Xiao Li was still unwilling to say: "But he is also too young, 22 years old, he is still the only child in the family at the beginning of his life, and he is about the same age as me." ”

Captain Wang stopped, looked at the young Xiao Li and said, "You are young, and you haven't been a policeman for long, and when you have seen more cases like me in the past 20 years, you will feel too normal." When I first became a police officer, I encountered a death case for the first time, and I couldn't accept it. But after a long time, you will find that it is too normal, especially for young people nowadays, who don't care about their bodies and stay up late every day, and their bodies are more or less problematic, and there are sudden deaths every year, which is the case with Li Caoben. After saying that, Captain Wang continued to move forward and walked out.

Xiao Li paused for a moment and immediately followed briskly and said, "Captain Wang, then I will continue to keep in touch with the parents of the deceased." ”

Captain Wang let out a "hmm" and continued to walk forward.

Sunlight shone through the windows and poured over the two of them, from one glass to the next, to the bright doorway of the building.

------------

To the world, the death of Li Herb did not make any waves. The sun is still shining, and the earth is not stopped. The death of Li Caoben in 2020 was just a case of data recorded in a computer.

For history, Li Caoben's death was like a grain of rubble in countless rubble, crushed into dust, and did not cause any impact.

For the landlord Aunt Zhao, Li Caoben's death made her feel a little sorry, how uncomfortable it was for her parents to be so young and a baby was gone. It won't be long before Aunt Zhao has to worry about how to rent out this house. Although Xiao Lin sympathized with Li Caoben's death, life and young capital made him quickly abandon this idea, but Xiao Lin still changed himself into a better mask for his own safety.

For Li Caoben's good friends, sadness and sighing are inevitable, and the best brothers are discussing sending some money to Li Caoben's parents every year.

For Li Herb's parents,

God, it's falling!

Yuanqi City, the hometown of Li Caoben.

There is one more tombstone in the Yuanqi cemetery, and the cemetery is clear every year, and there is a pair of white-haired people on Li Caoben's birthday and death day.

---------------

Li Caoben's consciousness fell into boundless darkness, unconscious, wrapped in a beam of white light, and traveled through the universe, through large planes, and flew to the unknowable.
