Chapter 2: Festival

Views:

Ibei, everything seems to have more meaning.

In fact, Chen Zhuo had seen the real Beibei. One day last month, when they had a video call with a friend, Beibei accidentally switched the camera, so Chen Zhuo looked up and saw his face.

He looks very small, he should be in his early twenties, the hair on his forehead is a little long, covering his eyebrows, the bridge of his nose is high and straight, and his chin is thin and pointed. Two rabbit teeth like grains of rice were exposed.

The most important thing is that he has a pair of very attractive eyes, the eyelashes are not long but very dense, the eyes are round, the ends of the eyes are slightly raised, and the pupil color is that kind of light brown.

Unfortunately, it is dim.

Chen Zhuo's first reaction was pity, not sympathy or pity, just pure pity. A particularly beautiful vase shattered at your feet, and you clearly know the pity that it can't be put back together again and can't be repaired.

So much so that he shook his head for a while, and after a few seconds he cleared his throat deliberately: "Babe, your camera is on the wrong way."

Beibei is cute even when he is stupid. He frowned in confusion, and leaned forward to the camera with a bulging face: "Ah? What do you mean?"

Clearly across the screen, Chen Zhuo felt that the distance was suddenly getting closer, so close that he could count the other's lower eyelashes, and he cleared his throat crampedly: "Maybe I accidentally pressed the camera switch button, um , that is... what I see now is your face."

Beibei let out a short exclamation like a small animal, and the camera fell sharply, and soon it became black.

Chen Zhuo guessed that he had put the phone on the table. After more than ten seconds, Beibei's voice was a little anxious and a little helpless: "I don't know how to change it back..."

Chen Zhuo softened his voice as much as possible. He didn't want Beibei to feel too embarrassed: "With a voice command, you can just say to the phone to switch to the rear camera."

Beibei paused for a while and suddenly said solemnly: "Is it like shouting out the eighteen palms for subduing the dragon before using the eighteen palms for subduing the dragon?"

This seemed to be the first time Beibei had joked with him, but Chen Zhuo didn't react.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Beibei immediately and cautiously whispered to test: "That, isn't it funny? I'm sorry, I won't say such boring words in the future... "

Chen Zhuo really wanted Beibei to turn his phone over and see his current expression, how could someone just say a word and make people feel that his cuteness is overflowing.

At this moment, Ji Xiaobei was sitting cross-legged on the bed, holding his mobile phone in both hands, and aggressively ordered the mobile phone to connect to cz2046 as if shouting out the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon, and then he heard the voice of cz2046, he called him, Bei cowry.

Ji Xiaobei's heart trembled as if he had come back to life: "Good noon!"

Yesterday, he asked his aunt to buy him two identical cashmere scarves, one in khaki and one in hemp gray. This is the theme of his help today: "Can you take a look at these two scarves, which one is gray?"

"The one on the left is gray, and the one on the right is light coffee." Chen Zhuo thought about it, and asked one more question, "Why, do you want to go out?"

Ji Xiaobei paused for a moment, and was a little unsure when he answered: "Well, that's right."

In fact, he hadn't walked out of the house for a long, long time. When he remembered that the last time he went out was the Mid-Autumn Festival, he groped himself to the gate of the community with a guide stick that had not been used for a long time, and waited for his sister-in-law to come and pick him up for the festival.

cz2046's voice is too gentle, like coaxing a child: "Where are you going? Is there anyone to accompany you?"

Ji Xiaobei had no choice but to continue lying: "I'm going to the central square, it's very close, I'll be there in a while, I'll go by myself."

After so long, Chen Zhuo can probably guess that there is no one around Beibei to take care of him, but now he is just an ordinary netizen on Be Your Eyes. Be safe and call me anytime you need it?"

"Okay, thank you! Then I'll go out!" Ji Xiaobei tried to make his voice sound more relaxed and pleasant, he thought that cz2046 might not like people who are too boring and boring.

The connection was hung up, and Ji Xiaobei found that he didn't pay attention to which one cz2046 said was gray and which one was brown. But it doesn't matter, he doesn't really want to go out. Ji Xiaobei casually took one and wrapped it around him, burying his head in the quilt like an ostrich.

So boring, I want to take a long, long nap until noon tomorrow, so I can connect with cz2046 again when I wake up... In fact, he wants to talk to cz2046 in the morning and at night, but he doesn't want cz2046 to dislike him bother.

At six o'clock in the evening, the volunteers brought dinner on time. Ji Xiaobei had no appetite, so he left it after eating half of it. A vague electronic sound suddenly sounded in the room, he walked into the bedroom, and it took him a while to touch the cell phone tucked under the pillow, it said: "friend cz2046 requests to connect..."

Ji Xiaobei thought he heard it wrong. He didn't know that Be Your Eyes could connect the other way. He touched the edge of the bed and sat down, not sure, "Agree?"

The video call is connected, and it is indeed the voice of cz2046: "Babe, can you hear it?"

Ji Xiaobei was a little flustered: "Why... why can you call me?"

Because this is a new function developed for you, of course, Chen Zhuo can't tell him about it, this is his selfishness and secret: "It seems to be a new function, I just opened the software and saw an additional icon, I just Click to try."

Ji Xiaobei wondered if this meant that cz2046 sometimes wanted to talk to him, so he gathered up the courage to ask a side-by-side question: "What is this function used for?"

"Use it to chat when you have nothing to do?" Chen Zhuo couldn't help but want to tease him, "Or you don't want to chat with me when you don't need me?" "I don't!" Ji Xiaobei shook his head unconsciously. .

Chen Zhuo did not tell Beibei that this function is to enable the front camera by default. It's dark over Beibei's side, after all, he doesn't need lights in his world.

The street light came in through the window, and Beibei was backed by the light, reflecting a furry outline. Chen Zhuo felt that he was holding the mobile phone in both hands and was concentrating, like a hamster with Guaziren in his arms...

It was the first time they chatted like this. Ji Xiaobei wanted to be more lively. If it was too boring, cz2046 would not play with him tomorrow. He took the initiative to tell cz2046 about his experience of going to the central square today. In fact, it was all imaginary and made up. The last time he went there was more than five years ago.

Ji Xiaobei didn't know that the central plaza had been demolished the year before, but Chen Zhuo just listened and didn't expose his lies.

From that day on, they can talk twice a day, one call from Beibei at noon, and one call from cz2046 at night. One day, when they were chatting about their respective usernames, Ji Xiaobei said helplessly: "I'm really not called Beibei..."

When he puffed up his face, he looked more like a hamster. Chen Zhuo wanted to set a button to feed him melon seeds with one click: "No way, I can't change my mouth. Do you know what my name means?"

Ji Xiaobei has been struggling with this issue for a long time. He still doesn't know how to call cz2046: "The first two letters should be the initials, 2046... Is 2046 that movie?"

Chen Zhuo hummed: "It's that Wong Kar Wai movie."

To be honest, Ji Xiaobei is very curious about everything about cz2046. Now he is more daring, he is no longer afraid to say anything: "What did you say?"

It's a bit difficult to explain this movie clearly. Chen Zhuo explained it to him from memory, and Ji Xiaobei was dizzy when he said it: "Are the two Su Lizhen really two people? Lulu really Did Zhou Muyun like Wang Jiewen? Did Zhou Muyun love Bai Ling? He liked Wang Jingwen later? Did they get together in the end? What about Su Lizhen? Did he not like Su Lizhen? What is 2046? Why did Wang Jingwen become a robot?"

In the end, Chen Zhuo was also stunned by him: "Wait, let me think about it..."

Ji Xiaobei was a little sad. He thought that if he had seen this movie five years ago, he would have something to say now, instead of staring at cz2046 and asking this and that, he seemed stupid.

Ji Xiaobei lowered his head a little dejectedly, and accidentally said what was in his heart. cz2046 was quiet, and suddenly asked him: "Babe, do you want to watch a movie?"

Ji Xiaobei's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his eyes seemed to suddenly darken. This seemed to be the first time in a long time that he felt offended by cz2046: "...you know I can't."

Chen Zhuo couldn't stand seeing Beibei frowning. He liked to see him smile: "I'm sorry, that's not what I meant! I mean, have you heard of the blind cinema?"

03

Ji Xiaobei did his homework very seriously for a week, and finally made up his mind to go to the cinema mentioned by cz2046. Technology has changed lives, and now you can easily find the information you need with voice search.

It turns out that there is really a blind cinema in city A, and it is in this district, far from their community.
