Chapter 58: Combing


The sound seemed to come from somewhere very far away, faint, intermittent, and subtly noisy, like an old radio with no frequency adjustment, struggling to spread barely received words.
Xu Wang shivered uncontrollably.
Xiao Sanhua in her arms raised her head and rubbed his chin gently with the top of her head.
The old doctor is still busy with his cleaning work, seriously, without looking up.
[Owl: Who ... are you ...]
Without waiting to answer, the voice persevered and asked a second time.
"You, who are you?" Xu Wang exhausted all his energy and finally asked such a question.
[Owl: Owl ...]
"Owl?" Xu Wang was at a loss for a moment, but soon remembered that the pattern of the arms of the four people was under the word "owl" under the owl.
[Owl: No ... no ... you should n’t be here ...]
Xu Wang was speechless. He hadn't said who he was, so he shouldn't be here? Not to mention that he did not want to come!
"Yes, I shouldn't be here, so let me go back quickly."
[Owl: Twenty-three ... Paper submission ... Regain freedom ...]
"Turn the paper? What paper? What is the exam?" Xu Wang really can't keep up with the other party's thinking, what subject is twenty-three?
[Owl: No ... you are not selected ... can't hand in the paper ...]
"Don't talk to yourself," Xu Wang wanted to go crazy, "I'm not bad at studying, you don't have to give me a range, just tell me what is twenty-three, I will learn by myself, and I will be able to hand in the papers!"
[Owl: Not selected ... not allowed ...]
"..." Xu Wang was tired, and the man couldn't make sense.
[Owl: Not selected ... why ... will be here ...]
[Owl: Who ... are you ...]
Yes, inexplicably confided in a bunch of self-talk, and then went back to the original point.
"You won," Xu Wang surrendered, and honestly handed his name, "Xu Wang, double Xu, hope Wang."
[Owl: Double Xu ... Hope of Hope ...]
"I have told you who I am, can you tell me how to go home?"
[Owl: For the first time ... someone ... can hear me ...]
Very good, and entered the "I do not listen to me do not listen to me only say what I want to say" mode.
[Owl: help me ... help ... help me ...]
The sudden pleading made Xu Wang caught off guard: "What?"
[Owl: No ... useless ... you will forget ...]
"Don't you always make conclusions casually!" Xu Wang was really fed up, "I won't forget! What the do you want me to do for you?"
Did not respond.
His arms suddenly lightened.
Xu Wang lowered his head subconsciously, holding the little three flowers, and I do n’t know when it disappeared. There was only a small milk meow keychain curled up and lying quietly in the palm.
Suddenly, the palm of the hand and the key chain flashed twice quickly, shaking out a ghost.
But Xu Wangming didn't move.
He raised his head in a panic, and found that the surrounding scene began to twist and deform, just like in the previous corridor.
I'm going home?
I'm going home!
Xu Shi felt too much like when he came, and his intuition was almost determined!
[Owl: Do n’t ... forget ... I ...]
This is what Xu Wang heard, the last sentence.
...
Seven classes in three years.
A minute ago, Xu Wang disappeared. Turning back, he found no one behind, Wu Sheng was half a minute, ignorant. In his life, there has never been a moment when his brain was blank, and tonight, he has experienced twice.
When pushing Xu Wang away, once, about five or six seconds.
It was found that Xu Wang was gone, the second time, thirty seconds.
Half a minute later, he immediately started looking for people. The first stop was the classroom they had just left, seven classes in three years.
After a bit of wrongdoing, Xu Wang stood beside his own desk.
At the moment when he saw the other person's figure, Wu Sheng leaned gently against the door frame, and the whole person was almost out of force.
Hanging his heart for half a minute and running 10,000 meters long, he thought happily that this is the ratio of loss of heart to body.
Taking a deep breath, his heartbeat gradually calmed down, Wu Sheng entered the classroom and came behind Xu Wang.
He didn't deliberately lighten his footsteps, and it didn't seem to be concealed, but he was close to Xu Wang's back, and the man was still motionless.
"Xu Wang?" Wu Sheng finally felt something wrong.
Thunder covered most of his voice, but the distance was close enough, and Xu Wang turned back slowly.
It was just that his eyes were blank, and it took him a long time to fix his face: "Huh?"
Wu Sheng was speechless, what should he "huh?" It was himself, who inexplicably slipped back into the classroom, what was the solution to the innocent look?
"Oh," as he finally understood his inexhaustible look, Xu Wang reached out and picked up the mobile phone on the desk, and showed it to him, "Forgot to take the phone."
Wu Sheng knew that he must have left something behind.
As for running away without saying a word ... it can be criticized in peacetime, but today, there is really no way to be straightforward.
"The rain has stopped." Xu Wang looked out the window.
Wu Sheng looked up. Sure enough, Lei received rain, and the night seemed to be silent.
"Hurry back." He was worried that he would come down later.
"Well." Xu Wang put his phone in his pocket.
Wu Sheng first turned around and walked towards the door.
Xu Wang kept up, but just took a step and kicked something on his toes.
He stooped to pick up things, a kitten's keychain.
This is his seat. After school, he slipped back and sat in the middle of the night, surely there was no such thing on the ground.
Wu Sheng was the only one who had been here since.
The keychain is still brand new, even if it falls to the ground, the color is still shiny.
"What's the matter?" Wu Sheng found that Xu Wang didn't keep up, and turned back vigilantly, fearing that he might lose the person.
"Nothing." Xu Wang quietly put the keychain into his pants pocket.
I have loved a person for so long and decided to give it up. Let him be willful for a while and remember it.
Broke up, commemorate.
He didn't regret having liked Wu Sheng at all.
Just starting tomorrow, I must concentrate on reviewing and preparing for the exam.
Go to a good university, find a stable job, don't ask for Huang Tengda, as long as you can be self-sufficient-listening to the pattern is not large enough, even some mediocre secular, but the only expectation of his mother.
...
Ten years later, Beijing, Xu Wang bedroom.
Facing the keychain, the memory is like a tide, swept over, and can no longer be blocked.
"Owl" was right. As soon as he came out, he forgot everything in "Owl". The memory was like being edited and then stitched together. The first second was still in the corridor with Wu Sheng, and the next second was Wu Sheng. Fold back to find yourself, and finally put a "return to get a mobile phone" at the splice.
Fair and reasonable, no traces.
While still in Dongying, the pennant in 3/23 only reminded him to follow the team to the part of the infected department. Until now, looking at the keychain, the more incredible section behind it came to mind. .
There was no way to calm down. Xu Wang got up and returned to the living room. He would sort out the complete "Ten Years Avenger" and originally told the three teammates.
As for the part related to real life, except for the "failure" in the middle, there is really no discussion value, and he is skipped, and the rest are frankly told without reservation.
Not only because he wants to be honest with his partners, but also because it involves the coordinates of the owl and reality, the time correspondence, and so on. Without contacting reality, there is no way to study it.
The three partners heard from the beginning.
Throughout the whole process, Wu Sheng's expression changed, but he remained silent; Qian Ai in the first half frequently asked questions, and when he stayed behind, he was completely ashamed, how to tell how to listen; Kuang Jinxin was just listening to the story. And, the more I listen, the more I am fascinated, and my eyes are so bright that people are embarrassed to talk boringly.
After finishing the talk in one breath, Xu Wang's throat smoked, took a cup of water and drank two big glasses, and waited for his teammates to ask questions.
Wu Sheng must be the fastest to understand, the quickest and most comprehensive to sort out the problem, but Xu Wang looked at him several times. The teammate's eyes were hanging down, neither asking questions nor showing the window of the soul, so quiet and mysterious.
"No way," Qian Ai took the case, and his stomach was about to explode, and the room was full of wandering, "'Owl' talking to you? Let you help him? Don't say anything about it? This is about killing people— —

"And the old doctor, why did you throw the vaccine? Then what do we fight for?"
"No, if the owl can tamper with the memory, how can you be sure that this memory is true now?"
"I know there is a keychain, you say it is a phantom, but I think it is a keychain ..."
With little sigh, Wu Sheng finally raised his eyes: "Old money, calm down."
"Squad leader, you can't use your concentration to ask us ordinary humans ..." Qian Ai is still entangled in "ten years ago", even calling back to youth.
"I tend to believe Xu Wang," Wu Sheng said, "otherwise there is no way to explain, and the sudden opening of the barrier last night."
Wu Sheng looked at Qian Ai.
Xu Wang stared at Wu Sheng.
Believe it, believe it, not believe it. "Tend to" this kind of accented tone is really invincible ...
At the reunion, Xu Wang felt that Wu Sheng had not changed, and now after recollecting his memories, he discovered that the green onion Wu in high school was much more lovely!
Knowing that he was stubborn, he would have to tear through him and lie in the middle of the night, and then run to the rain to find him in the teaching building ... Although the ending is cold, but the times have changed, and thinking about it is more sweet than bitter.
"Wait a minute," Qian Ai grabbed the most obvious tree branch in the "Ten Years of Foggy Forest" in the confrontation with his military division, "Did you watch Xu Wang disappear, didn't you react? Or Say your memory has also been erased? "
"I can't guarantee my memory, it hasn't been tampered with," Wu Sheng said rigorously, "But with my existing stored data, I didn't see him disappear, but turned around for the first time and saw him in ..." With a stab at the apex of his heart, Wu Sheng narrowed his eyes. "While watching the rain, he turned back for the second time, and he was gone. There was about a minute in between, enough for him to go back to the classroom without saying a word."
Xu Wang lowered his head and pretended to play with the keychain.
He is not watching the rain.
He is crying.
It turned out that Wu Sheng always knew.
"Even if it makes sense to go back and fetch the phone, should I say hello and tell me that my phone is in the classroom?" Qian Ai still doesn't understand. "Just so ran away, don't you find it strange?"
"There is no sound." Kuang Jinxin kindly reminded, "If you really do this, you will look back immediately if you are dull!"
Qian Ai black line: "I just make an analogy ..."
"Because too many things happened that day," Wu Sheng weighed his words, "He doesn't want to talk to me, it's normal."
Qian Ai and Kuang Jinxin naturally think that Wu Sheng is talking about the "mother Xu's death".
Therefore, the former complained that he was not alert enough: "Replace with me, I asked at that time, maybe I could discover the secret of the owl ten years earlier!"
The latter politely advised him: "Brother Sheng, in fact, sometimes he does not have to make up his own mind, and complement logic ..."
Qian Ai sat back on the sofa again, marking that the initial "impact stage" had basically passed.
"If there are no other urgent problems, we will start from the beginning," Xu Wang settled his mind and said in a deep voice, "There are too many strange places."
Qian Ai and Kuang Jinxin agreed.
Xu Wang nodded and looked at Wu Sheng: "Please start your analysis."
Suddenly turned over, Wu Jun was caught off guard and looked stunned.
Xu Wang raised his lips, a little smug and proud, but the trust in his eyes was also real: "You must have thought about the same, you said, we listen."
Wu Sheng finally recollected it, glanced at him in a complicated mood, then adjusted his emotions, and gladly opened, Wu Jun teacher's small classroom.
"First, the coordinates. The coordinates of 3/23 are in Dongying, which is different from our school and even the province. There are two possibilities. The coordinates of 3/23 ten years ago were in our school. Or, there was a problem with the owl. Hope to in 3/23. "
"Second, time. When Xu Wang entered the owl, at 0:00 Beijing time, according to the setting of 3/23, it should be six in the evening, but the actual situation is late at night. Of course, this may be the content of the 3/23 level. Normal changes and adjustments. However, Xu Wang stayed in it for at least forty minutes to an hour, but in reality, from when I found him missing, to when I returned to the classroom to see him, there was only one minute in between. We are now going through the barrier, owl The time is synchronous with the reality, so we can use our mobile phone to watch the time. "
Classmate Qian raised his hand to speak.
Wu Junshi waved his hand and signaled me to understand: "The owl can tamper with my memory of time. This is the first possibility, but there may also be a problem with the owl himself."
"Third, Xu Wang's own state," which is what Wu Sheng cares most about, "he is 'existent' for the barrier-breakers, he is 'existed but ignored' for the buildings, objects and NPCs in the owl ... "
Xu Wang listened anxiously and took the next step: "There are also two possibilities here, come on."
Unexpectedly, Wu Junshi changed the routine: "There are no two, just one. The owl world mistakes you as your own, so you will not receive the owl pattern that symbolizes the identity of the customs clearance. See, then you are NPC. "
Xu Wang: "But they can't see it, neither the passers nor the NPC can see me."
Wu Sheng: "So you are a bug."
Xu Wang: "..."
Wu Sheng: "Next I will focus on the analysis of the conditions for the emergence of BUG and future development prospects."
Xu Wang: "..."
Qian Ai: "..."
Kuang Jinxin: "Brother Sheng, please speak slowly, I will take notes in class."
