It always seems to be like this.
Whenever she has doubts and feels that she is still far away, Lao Lin or Pei Zhi always appear in front of her and tell her that "there is still a long way to go" is actually something that should be happy.
It's nice to see the mountains and the sea.
After Lin Zhaoxi drank the chicken soup that Lao Lin practiced, she turned on her prediction program again.
If you don't meet your goals, then you have to look at what else can be improved.
If everything is perfect and what she lacks is confidence, then just need more confidence.
—
12.12, nine days before Lao Lin's car accident.
Lin Zhaoxi was finally overwhelmed by the turbulent cold that had been coming for several days, and started to catch a cold and cough.
The case of Peizhi asking for leave has basically come to an end, and the gossip of the students focuses on the relationship between the captain of the school basketball team and the junior high school senior Hua.
At noon, Lin Zhaoxi was having lunch in the cafeteria when she received a call from an unfamiliar number.
Before answering the call, the area code of Yongchuan on the caller ID made her heart beat faster for no reason.
"How are you?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was very gentle and magnetic, it was a boy.
Lin Zhaoxi was stunned: "Hanjuan?"
"She still remembers my voice, student Lin Zhaoxi has not forgotten her roots."
"It's because you placed too many advertisements, you can't remember it." Lin Zhaoxi found an empty bench and sat down, gathered her down jacket, coughed twice, and replied.
"It's an honor to see my ad."
"yes."
"Tsk, I'm working so hard to liven up the atmosphere, you can't even be happy, it looks like you're not having a good time."
"I just got stuffed." Lin Zhaoxi paused, held the phone in another hand, and looked up at the sky slightly. In so many days of stressful life, it seemed that she hadn't been exposed to warm sunshine for a long, long time.
After a while, Hanamaki couldn't bear it anymore: "Why didn't you ask me why I called you?"
"You usually talk about small things directly. Only big things that are difficult to talk about, you will lay the groundwork for a minute... Well, it will be a minute soon."
As soon as she finished speaking, Hanajuan said, "I just came out of Aunt Qin's ward." Hanajuan added, "It's Pei's mother."
Lin Zhaoxi fell silent, she didn't expect to hear this from Hanajuan, and it was so sudden, she didn't know what to reply for a while.
"How is Auntie?" She held the phone, leaned forward slightly, and the wind suddenly became cold. Her throat was itchy and she couldn't help coughing.
"not good."
"What about Pei Zhi?"
"Not good."
"Is there anything I can do to help?"
"I'm afraid not."
Lin Zhaoxi thought for a while, then continued to ask: "Is there anything Pei Zhi wants you to bring?"
"still none."
"Then why did you call me?"
"Because I think I need to call you." Hanamaki emphasized "I", and the background sound on the other end of the phone was very clean. Lin Zhaoxi could almost imagine the boy leaning against the wall, very resolute, "The address of the hospital is Yongchuan Ci'en Hospital, Ward 3, Ward V9-101."
—
The hospitals in Yongchuan that begin with the word "慈" are all affiliated to a certain group, and they are high-end medical departments. Mercy Hospital, one of the hospice hospitals, aims to reduce the suffering of patients.
Lin Zhaoxi checked a lot of relevant information, even the train ticket to Yongchuan.
She really wanted to tell Lao Lin Peizhi's mother that time was running out, but recently Lao Lin's thesis had reached the most critical stage, and she couldn't even speak a few words to him every day.
Lao Lin stopped the cram school on weekends, which was the only suspension of classes in several years. The only time they communicated other than math was Lao Lin who supervised her to take her temperature and take her medicine.
The classrooms in the school are not ventilated in winter. After a few days, her cold did not show signs of relief, but intensified.
The winter night was cold, and there was no heating in the study. She coughed badly every day, and was afraid of disturbing Lao Lin, so she went to the kitchen alone.
Chuanbei pears were stewed on the stove, manuscript paper and reference books were spread out on the small dining table, and she began to recite the part of Lao Lin's completed thesis.
When she couldn't figure it out, she tried to read the book to understand it, and when she couldn't understand it, she forced to recite it.
The time of departure has been completely determined. Even if Lao Lin can't finish the whole thesis in the end, she must take back the existing things intact.
And in such a day, she couldn't find a chance to ask Lao Lin to go to Yongchuan to see Pei Zhi.
The whole room was very warm, but it seemed like it was too hot. She rubbed her forehead and coughed twice, hoping everything would be okay.
—
The calendar turns day by day, and 24 hours is fair to everyone.
On Sunday, Chen Zhu's small garage.
The room was filled with the smell of instant coffee and the sound of typing on the keyboard. Lin Zhaoxi saw a blinking cursor in front of her eyes, and the morning light outside the window was faint.
Today is the last chance for Lao Lin to test the program before his car accident.
As in the tense test, there were calls of the battery car being stolen in the community. Chen Zhu retrieved the video, and she began to quickly calculate the location. After Lao Chen rushed out of the garage, Lin Zhaoxi began to wait for a long time.
The mechanical sound hummed, they sat nervously in front of the computer, and the time in the lower right corner was beating every minute.
Seven minutes after the call was connected, Lin Zhaoxi's heart was beating very fast.
"Caught it!" Chen Zhu's father shouted on the other end of the phone.
The sound from the microphone was extremely loud, and even the rumbling noise of the road and streets in the background could be clearly heard.
Beside her, Chen Zhu jumped up and punched the sky.
Lin Zhaoxi was stunned on the spot.
She actually did it
—
After the arrest of the battery car thief is completed, relevant procedures are still required.
Chen Zhu's father is responsible for doing these things. For Lin Zhaoxi, a successful experience is as important as a failed experience.
She began to summarize various data.
Perhaps it was because of the outstanding results in arresting the thieves this time. In the evening, Lao Chen came home and said that she had brought a "little gift."
He showed her the usb drive with a smile, and when Lin Zhaoxi wanted to pick it up, he withdrew his hand slightly, leaving her alone.
Lin Zhaoxi: "???"
"This is the escape route of the car thief today. The surveillance uncle cut a video for you, but there are conditions."
Lin Zhaoxi: "Huh?"
"It's a big mess today. Our leader is very interested in the program you wrote. Can you show the code?"
Before Lin Zhaoxi could speak, Chen Zhu was speechless: "Dad, the software has patents, so I will give it to you if I can say it."
"How could a group of us adults snatch the little girl's things." Chen Zhu's father stared at his son in disbelief, then turned his head and said gently, "Don't worry, the things must be yours, this uncle will give you a guarantee."
Lin Zhaoxi looked at Lao Chen's excited face, sat back in her seat, and exported the backup program.
The moment Lao Chen reached out to her, she also retracted her hand.
"I have a request too."
"What?"
"I also want to improve this software, so I want to use the surveillance video of the urban area." Lin Zhaoxi said seriously.
Old Chen's eyes widened, he didn't expect that she would make a request: "This, I have to go back and get in touch." He thought for a while, and finally said.
Although there was an exchange condition, Chen Zhu's father still gave her that "little gift".
Lin Zhaoxi compared it with the data she had simulated, and was busy for another night.
—
No. 284 Zhuanzhu Lane, the night is dark.
Lin Zhaoxi remained in a good mood all night until the courtyard door was opened.
Although Lao Chen has not responded so far, she still sees the hope of obtaining the right to monitor and observe urban roads on 12.21.
If the probability value can be updated based on Lao Lin's real-time action path and vehicle conditions, then she can almost predict the exact location of Lao Lin's car accident, if it is bound to happen.
The yard was still as she had left it in the morning.
The chandelier was slightly yellow, and the newly planted plants in the corner had sprouted, but the smell of cigarettes in the air made Lin Zhaoxi at a loss.
Lao Lin was sitting on a stone bench in the yard. It was a cold winter night. He was wearing only a thin coat and held a cigarette in one hand. The sparks were flickering, making the night even colder.
Lin Zhaoxi couldn't remember how long it had been since Lao Lin smoked. It seemed that since Lao Lin met her in Cheese World, he had never touched cigarettes.
Instead, in her childhood memory of Strawberry World, there was such a cold night.
Lao Lin sat alone in the yard smoking a cigarette, as if he was not interested in everything around him.
Lin Zhaoxi walked over and called softly, "Dad."
Lao Lin looked up at her with slow and peaceful movements.
Although he was still smoking a cigarette, he looked at her with gentle eyes as usual, and Lin Zhaoxi felt a little relieved when he raised his throat.
"Why are you smoking secretly all of a sudden?" Lin Zhaoxi asked.
"It's not all of a sudden, I smoke even when you're not around."
"..." Lin Zhaoxi was incredulous, "Where do you usually hide your cigarettes?"
"The canteen at the door, buy a pack and put it in old Anna, and smoke one every time, this is called withdrawal."
Lao Lin was gossiping as usual, Lin Zhaoxi was not at ease: "Then why did you withdraw the deposit all at once today?"
"Oh, an old friend of mine is gone."
Lao Lin put out the cigarette butt and said calmly.
