48 Hours a Day

Chapter 1: extra 24 hours

Views:

Zhang Heng discovered that his day had 24 extra hours a month ago.

The first thing that changed was his watch, which was a starfish automatic III mechanical watch produced by Tissot in Switzerland, which was given to him by his parents in Iceland on his eighteenth birthday.

Very perfunctory Taobao placed an order, the seller delivered the goods, and the address bar also filled in the wrong class.

Zhang Heng was too lazy to complain about these two people. Before he graduated from elementary school, these two gods couldn't wait to pack up and fly to Europe to start a new life.

The two met at an academic exchange meeting. They are both theologians by profession. As the name suggests, they are experts in the study of religious myths. Naturally, it is not easy to mix in the great motherland where materialism prevails.

However, unlike those swindlers, Zhang Heng’s parents do have real facts. One of them graduated from Oxford University and majored in Nordic and Greek mythology, and the other is a postgraduate student at Durham University, who studies Christian mythology The subject has published several papers and is said to be quite influential in the industry.

As a result, I couldn't get along after returning home.

...

It just so happened that Zhang's father's mentor took over a big project and was short of manpower. After discussing it, the two left Zhang Heng to his grandfather, and then they patted their buttocks and started their research life all over the world.

After that, he would only go back home once a year, so Zhang Heng spent his childhood with his grandfather.

Maybe it was because they felt ashamed, but the two gods did not owe the old and the young in terms of expenses.

Not counting the tuition and accommodation fees, Zhang Hengnian's living expenses in college are 30,000 yuan a year, which is not as good as those rich second generations who drive sports cars, but it is already pretty good among ordinary students.

Back to the topic.

The thing about the watch is quite weird. When Zhang Heng woke up and subconsciously planned to check the time, he found that the scale on it had changed from twelve to twenty-four.

Zhang Heng was stunned for a moment, then put the watch back to its original place calmly, covered the quilt and continued to sleep.

As a result, an hour and a half later, I sent a text message to my buddy on the bed, and regretfully informed him that the senior student had been named.

Not a dream

Zhang Heng took ten minutes to wash up, sat at the desk under the bed, and turned on the computer.

He first went to Taobao, searched for double-scale watches, tricked him, and the search results showed—sorry, no relevant treasures were found.

So Zhang Heng deleted the following ", Tricky".

Still no matches.

Isn't it a prank

Zhang Heng rubbed his chin. If the inexplicably extra twelve scales were not taken into account, the time on the watch would match the time on the computer. After careful observation, Zhang Heng finally confirmed that the 24-scale watch was the same as the time on the computer. The starfish he had been carrying was the same thing.

Including scratches on the bottom cover and wrinkles on the strap, these details will definitely not be known to anyone except him, the original owner.

Of course, it does not rule out some hard-core players, who can restore the details to the same level as the real thing, but who will be full and have nothing to do, do this for a prank, have this skill and energy to go to the Forbidden City to repair Are artifacts bad

In summary, Zhang Heng knew that something had happened to him.

Ordinary people will probably be scared to pee when they encounter this kind of supernatural phenomenon, but Zhang Heng is not an ordinary person, and this is thanks to his pair of fairy parents.

Parents used to tell their children fairy tales about little rabbits and little squirrels to lull their children to sleep. These two were lucky enough not to waste their professional knowledge. Zhang Heng fell asleep listening to stories from Norse mythology and the Bible when he was a child.

Although he himself did not live up to the nine-year compulsory education in the end and became a glorious materialist, the foundation he had built when he was a child is still there.

Zhang Heng's ability to accept such things is much stronger than ordinary people.

To explain it with the concept in the popular board game "Call of Cthulhu", that is, the SAN value of his character drops very slowly.

Instead of being afraid, he became very interested in what was happening to him.

There are twelve scales on a normal watch, and two revolutions of the hour hand on it represent the elapsed time of the day, but now his global limited exclusive version of the 24-scale Xinghai can complete a day with just one revolution.

From this point of view, it doesn't seem to be a big deal, and there is even a little bit of a feeling after getting used to it.

But Zhang Heng believes that no matter who has done all this, he will never be satisfied with just changing him to a new dial.

Intuition tells Zhang Heng that the really interesting things will probably not happen until the hour hand completes a circle.

There are still about 15 hours before the end of today. Of course, Zhang Heng does not intend to be idle during this time.

You don't need to attend the advanced math class in the morning. You have already been called anyway. According to the professor's rules, you will automatically lose 5 points from your final exam score.

This wave can no longer be saved.

Zhang Heng simply went to the playground to make up for the missed morning run.

When the classmates mentioned Zhang Henglai, they all thought that Zhang Henglai was amazing. After entering college, no one liked to get up early. Only this guy could persist in morning jogging, but he didn’t see him sign up for the sports meeting, and he rarely participated in other group activities. , especially don't like parties, but if you get in touch with him, you will find that he is not as cold as he appears on the surface, on the contrary, he is quite interesting.

There has always been a saying among the girls that Zhang Heng is versatile. Some people went back to school early after the holiday and said that they saw him playing Paganini's grand etude "Bell" alone in the piano room. It is a piano solo piece adapted from the theme of Ney's "Violin Concerto No. 2 in Minor". It is famous for its difficulty in performance. It is written in rondo form. Every time the theme appears, it changes a new performance technique, which is an extremely test for the pianist's performance. Skill.

Some people also said that they met him to practice in the archery gym when they were out of school, and according to the private disclosure of the boy who slept with Zhang Heng, this guy seemed to be a member of a rock climbing club.

All of the above are facts, but they are also not facts.

In fact, Zhang Heng is not as evil as everyone said. His morning run was forced out by his grandfather, and he didn't let it go after getting used to it. However, his speed and endurance are better than ordinary people, and he is completely different from those specially recruited sports talents. No comparison.

Archery was something he only started to try on a whim recently, and he only took three classes, which is barely a beginner. Rock climbing belongs to the kind of enthusiasm that recedes after registering and getting a card, and breaks up peacefully.

He has been playing the only piano since he was a child, but his level is only about eight or nine grade amateurs. He saved the Paganini etude "Bell" on his mobile phone and played it in the piano room to listen to himself. Out of such a moth.

Therefore, Zhang Heng, who is not an ordinary person, is actually not that unusual.

He is very interested in many things around him, but time is fair to everyone.

Whether you are willing to cherish it or not, intend to use every minute effectively, or just want to lie in bed cos salted fish, everyone only has 24 hours a day to allocate.

Not more than a minute and not less than a second.
