"Your hand punch is good." Chen Yekai said.
"I learned from you." Yu Hao smiled.
Chen Yekai used to work in a coffee shop in New York and was a Samsung barista. The tricks Yu Hao learned in Huafang Coffee were smashed in front of Chen Yekai. Ye Kai disliked it.
"The teacher who taught me how to make hand brew said," said Chen Yekai, "brewing coffee is like falling in love. Every cup of coffee has its own unique taste. No two cups of coffee are the same."
Yu Hao had a hunch that Chen Yekai might have changed his mind. They raised their eyes almost at the same time and looked at each other.
Yu Hao removed the filter paper, shook the glass dish gently, and said, "I don't think you're here to teach me how to make coffee today, or give me some final exam focus."
"Of course not." Chen Yekai said, "I have nothing to teach you. Instead, I want you to teach me."
Chen Yekai took the coffee, and Yu Hao said, "Just tell me if you like it."
Chen Yekai was startled, stared at Yu Hao, then realized something and laughed.
"No." Chen Yekai said, "You misunderstood, Yu Hao. But I came here today and really wanted to explain a few words to you about that child... um..."
Yu Hao looked inexplicable, Chen Yekai touched his nose, took a sip of coffee, and pondered, "I don't have any interest in Ou Qihang, I tried my best to convince Zhou Sheng that the reason why I entered the doomsday dream has no purpose. I think You don't have to hide it from you... Yu Hao, Ou Qihang's father is dead."
"Yes." Yu Hao wondered, "What's wrong?"
"Occasionally, the dead will reappear in the dreams of the living." Chen Yekai said, "There is no doubt about that."
Yu Hao hesitated. He probably understood what Chen Yekai meant. The next topic might be related to Long Sheng. He wanted to persuade Chen Yekai to stop thinking about it, but he forcibly restrained himself. After all, Chen Yekai is a very smart person, and he is not paranoid or mentally ill. As a member of psychology, what he needs to do at this time is to listen and listen tirelessly, instead of interrupting Chen Yekai and arbitrarily giving him Any suggestions.
"Yes." Yu Hao replied.
Chen Yekai made a move, while still thinking: "I think, maybe in Ou Qihang's dream, we will also find such a situation, his late father appeared in his impression, and had a relationship with him. dialogue."
"Sure enough, it appeared." Yu Hao replied, "So what?"
Yu Hao was very patient, and he gradually felt that Chen Yekai would talk to him about this topic, which was indeed giving him a lot of trust.
Chen Yekai tapped lightly on the table with his fingers, and Yu Hao added, "I once saw my grandma in a dream."
"Well..." Chen Yekai said, "Then can we understand that the Golden Crow Wheel has the ability to allow the deceased to live in another person's spiritual world in some altered form?"
Yu Hao didn't speak for a long time.
Chen Yekai said: "Just like the phrase 'he lives in my heart', what we have are many memories of our past together. Based on these memories, we reproduce a person's image and incomplete soul. …”
Yu Hao said: "Mr. Chen, what I'm going to say next is just a discussion, I don't want to persuade you to get out of the past or anything. In fact, if this kind of thing falls on me, it's very unlikely for me to do it, everyone says it lightly. …”
Chen Yekai laughed, made a gesture, and replied, "I understand what you mean."
Yu Hao said, "But this kind of person who is 'simulated' by our spirit is never the real him. Of course, for us, it's okay to talk about hypnosis for comfort, but it's better not to indulge."
Chen Yekai suddenly said again: "What if the person who exists in our memory is the real him?"
Yu Hao: "..."
"It's just an idea." Chen Yekai replied.
Yu Hao said, "Do you believe there are souls in the world?"
Chen Yekai said: "Since knowing this secret, I have often imagined that if we pass through the Golden Crow Wheel while we are alive, and keep all our memories, impressions, and autonomous thoughts in this device, will we be completely free from now on? Entered the dream world, and obtained the qualification to live immortally and to continue life in another way?"
At eight o'clock in the morning, the sun shone into the room, but Yu Hao suddenly felt a little chill on his back.
Chen Yekai said: "Last night, apart from the two guesses of the consciousness communication device and the entertainment system, I have a third guess. Would you like to hear it?"
Yu Hao said, "You...why didn't you tell Zhou Sheng this?"
Chen Yekai straddled the chair, with both hands on the back of the chair, with an inexplicable look in his eyes, he glanced at Yu Hao.
"Zhou Sheng will only tell me to stop thinking about things, let me put it down and come out." Chen Yekai took a sip of coffee and frowned, "But what I think is, Yu Hao, you can understand my feelings. ."
After speaking, Chen Yekai pondered again: "Once I think too much, Zhou Sheng may try to help me, like erasing Ou Qihang's memory, and make me forget these things."
Yu Hao thought that it was indeed the case. Your concerns are not totally unreasonable, but even if you told me, I couldn't do much for you.
"What is the third guess?" Yu Hao finally asked.
"A device that separates the body from brain waves." Chen Yekai said, "During interstellar voyage, the body needs to sleep, that is, 'dreaming', while the spirit still needs to be active. So, you can think of it as ' Conscious memory', or 'soul box', or some kind of 'horcrux'."
Yu Hao immediately said, "Don't say it anymore, it's a little scary."
Chen Yekai raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "You are the only person who really knew Long Sheng in my dream. I think you may be able to judge..."
Yu Hao was greatly shocked, he couldn't help standing up, and took a few steps beside the dining table to calm down: "That's just your nostalgia for Long Sheng, which creates a more realistic impression..."
"Yes." Chen Yekai said, "That's why I've been looking for it all the time. Will something happen? I don't know what Long Sheng did, but he showed it to you. This is the only way to prove that he is a soul. Not evidence of memory. Like your 'swimming' in my dream…”
"Don't talk about it!" Yu Hao's hair stood up and said, "Mr. Chen!"
Chen Yekai had a smile on his face, but a little sadness in his eyes, and said, "Don't be afraid, he is my lover."
Yu Hao thought about it too. If this happened, Long Sheng would be a ghost to him, but a lover to Chen Yekai.
"How could you think of such a strange thing?" Yu Hao asked.
"I discussed it with my junior and senior brothers for a long time." Chen Yekai said, "After all, a civilization has to navigate the vast universe for hundreds or even thousands of years before it can find another planet with intelligent life. Existence proves that these people's spaceships must be made of matter, matter cannot exceed the speed of light, or even reach the speed of light, this is the limit of technology..."
"...Isn't it reasonable to make a bold speculation that the body and consciousness are separated during the voyage?"
Yu Hao made a meaningless gesture, and Chen Yekai said again, "I don't want to mention this speculation to Zhou Sheng, you should be able to understand."
Yu Hao said, "There are no secrets between us."
Chen Yekai nodded and said, "So, it's up to you?"
Yu Hao thought to himself that now you are throwing this problem on me, it's really hateful.
"Then what do you want me to do for you?" Yu Hao said, "Prove that the Longsheng in your memory is the real Longsheng?"
Chen Yekai spread his hands and replied, "I don't know what I want either." Then he laughed again: "Just treat the archangel as a lonely person and confess to the archangel in some sense. There's the truth, then I think it'll come out one day. Go, go to class?"
Yu Hao had eaten the breakfast that Chen Yekai brought him, and he had been thinking about it all the time. Chen Yekai meant it was just "talking about it", and he didn't want to suffer Zhou Sheng's amnestics because of it. Yu Hao knew that Zhou Sheng had always had an inexplicable fear of the Golden Crow Wheel. It was the fear of the power that he could not control. Now he finally got rid of this idea for the time being, and repeating the old things would only cause trouble for a while. I'm not sure if I should have a good talk with Zhou Sheng.
But in the final analysis, this is still a guess of Chen Yekai. The matter of Ou Qihang finally came to an end, and he completely forgot about Chen Yekai. In the meantime, Huang Ting also called them to confirm what happened, but Ou Qihang couldn't remember all the past events anyway.
"Are you going to erase Kaikai's memory?" Yu Hao asked Zhou Sheng privately.
Zhou Sheng said, "Not for now, what's wrong?"
Yu Hao shook his head, tying his shoelaces next to the court of the three-person basketball game.
Zhou Sheng said, "You have something on your mind recently, wife."
Yu Hao said, "If I do something stupid on the court, you must wipe my memory clean..."
Zhou Sheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I have never wanted to use it in front of you, I just don't want you to think that I will erase your memory at any time. It's not like we haven't quarreled, I have done such a thing?"
Fu Liqun came over and said, "Baby, are you ready? Come on! Come on!"
The three put their hands together, the whistle blew outside, entered the field, and January came, and the three-person basketball game began.
The lights flickered and Yu Hao felt a little dizzy. He felt particularly unfamiliar when he played, but Zhou Sheng said, "Don't be nervous! There are us!"
Yu Hao dribbled the ball and passed it to Fu Liqun, "Bang! Bang!" The sound of the basketball hitting the ground was like a heavy drum hitting his heart, and there was an uproar in the surrounding audience. Fu Liqun dribbled the ball quickly and dunked!
Yu Hao was dumbfounded. Fu Liqun's first score aroused frantic cheers from the audience. Previously, they formulated tactics, practiced, and competed with classmates. The strength seems to be very strong!
Zhou Sheng turned around, grabbed the ball smartly, and said to Yu Hao, "Are you still nervous?"
Yu Hao was wearing a headband and his forehead was covered in sweat. The other party knew that he was the weakest link in their team. Fu Liqun made a few gestures with both hands, Zhou Sheng and Yu Hao each held their own positions, Yu Hao was ready, Zhou Sheng suddenly passed the ball, Yu Hao shot from beyond the three-point line and hit!
The disparity in strength was too great. The opposing team was also an amateur, and it was simply not enough for the three of them to play. Zhou Sheng came over and gave Yu Hao a high five.
Yu Hao was led by Zhou Sheng and Fu Liqun in cheers. In the end, they overwhelmed their opponents with a big score. The opponents came up to shake hands one by one, and it was over.
Yu Hao: "..."
"Sister-in-law?" Zhou Sheng asked as he changed into trousers in the lounge.
"She will wait until the top sixteen to come." Fu Liqun changed his socks, Yu Hao was still breathing, his biggest problem was that his physical strength was not as good as Zhou Sheng and Fu Liqun, Zhou Sheng touched his head, kissed his forehead, and said, " My wife took a few steps less and told you not to get too excited."
Yu Hao waved his hand and poured water violently. After the basketball game, Fu Liqun and Zhou Sheng were like nothing else. Everyone went home to review and prepare for the final exam.
The three-person basketball game was supposed to start during the winter vacation, but the organizers had moved it forward for some reason. There were six games in total until the semi-finals, one every three days. Yu Hao had to review for the final exam. At night, Zhou Sheng used Yu Hao's computer to browse the web, Fu Liqun recited public lessons, and Yu Hao sorted out the statistics notes Zhou Sheng had drawn for him.
The warm yellow light was on at the dining table, and everyone was quiet, only the sound of Zhou Sheng's Apple mouse and Fu Liqun's whispered endorsement.
Yu Hao raised his head from the notes and glanced at them.
Fu Liqun: "?"
Zhou Sheng glanced at Yu Hao and asked, "Hungry? Make you a late-night snack?"
Yu Hao shook his head and laughed.
"What are you looking at?" Yu Hao lost his mind and glanced at Zhou Sheng.
"Prepare to go to Australia during the Spring Festival." Zhou Sheng said, "I'll take you to get a passport after the basketball game. Has your sister-in-law agreed?"
Fu Liqun spread his hands, noncommittal.
Yu Hao looked at Zhou Sheng and then at Fu Liqun.
Zhou Sheng and Fu Liqun looked at Yu Hao suspiciously, Zhou Sheng said, "What the hell are you trying to say?"
Yu Hao said, "I'm thinking about how great it would be if we could always be together like this in the future."
Zhou Sheng: "Damn! Do you want to do three batches?"
Fu Liqun immediately called out, "Don't be numb, young lady! Are you giving me hatred?"
Yu Hao laughed. Sometimes he always felt that he and Zhou Sheng were both a good buddy-like lover and a lover-like good buddy. Many of the habits they used to be together were retained. When Zhou Sheng came down during a basketball game, he would always Kissing him in the locker room, the other teammates not only did not doubt their relationship at all, but said "you have a really good relationship". Although they lost, they actually learned from Zhou Sheng and kissed each other a few times in their own team.
And Fu Liqun has earned enough halo, he can score nearly 70% each time, Yu Hao was afraid that Zhou Sheng would be jealous because he admired Fu Liqun too much. Looking at Fu Liqun's eyes was also very admirable. The three often smiled knowingly, and Yu Hao didn't mind anymore.
"Today's team seems to be a bit strong." Fu Liqun raised his hand and said, "Did you watch their game last week, young master?"
Zhou Sheng: "I didn't watch it, I went to make up my tutor, just play it, and I'll enter the semifinals soon."
A team in the middle withdrew from the competition. In mid-January, Fu Liqun's "Young Master Team" will compete for the top sixteen.
Yu Hao was immediately dumbfounded when it was notified from the outside that the two sides had entered the arena.
The opponent team is Huang Ting, Chen Yekai and Ou, Qi and Hang!
Chen Yekai, however, was very calm, waved to them, and said, "Come on? Fight hard!"
Yu Hao: "!!!"
Every time Yu Hao finished playing, he urged them to go back to review. He didn't care about his opponents at all. When Fu Liqun looked at his opponents, the registration form was full of team names, called "Qingxing Group". He never thought it was these three guys!
However, Zhou Sheng quickly calmed down and said, "Let's start psychological tactics!"
Yu Hao: "What... what psychological tactics?"
The two sides stepped forward and clapped, Fu Liqun and Huang Ting clapped.
Fu Liqun said to Huang Ting, "Officer Huang, your shoes are fake."
Huang Ting: "..."
Zhou Sheng took a photo with Chen Yekai, Zhou Sheng said, "Mr. Chen, your hairstyle today looks like a lovable little girl."
Chen Yekai cursed and said, "Zhou Sheng, wait for me, I'll let you know who the fuck is today."
Yu Hao and Ou Qihang clapped their hands and said, "Why don't you spend time studying?"
"Guide." Ou Qihang smiled brightly.
Yu Hao: "Is the recommendation better than taking the test yourself?"
Ou Qihang: "Guide Tsinghua University."
Yu Hao: "..."
The whistle sounded and the match started. Yu Hao immediately felt that he had run into a formidable opponent. Chen Yekai was staring at Zhou Sheng, Huang Ting was defending Fu Liqun, and Ou Qihang was in charge of staring at Yu Hao. Yu Hao had played a few games, and he was no longer nervous in the preliminary match. As soon as the two sides parted, cheers broke out from the stands!
The applause and roar reminded Yu Hao of Zhou Sheng's ancient Roman Colosseum. One after another, the basketball slammed into the ground with a "bang, bang" sound. Ou Qihang stood tall and looked at Yu Hao with a smile.
"Do you remember what happened later?" Yu Hao said to Ou Qihang.
"No." Ou Qihang intercepted the ball, Yu Hao dexterously dodged, screamed again from the audience, Yu Hao dribbled the ball to Zhou Sheng, Zhou Sheng got the ball and passed Chen Yekai, Ou Qihang said again, "It's like doing a It's a big dream, and when you wake up, you can't remember anything."
Yu Hao: "In this world, you can't be too persistent."
"Who am I? Where am I?" Ou Qihang smiled cutely. Yu Hao took the opportunity to turn around and let Ou Qihang be in front of him. Ou Qihang pressed his chest against his back and said, "Hold one?"
"Get out!" Yu Hao said, "Be careful of being beaten to death by Zhou Sheng!"
Zhou Sheng and Fu Liqun cooperated and almost scored a goal, but Chen Yekai grabbed the rebound. Chen Yekai quickly passed the ball to Ou Qihang, but was intercepted by Yu Hao, who made a fake when he jumped up. , avoiding Ou Qihang to grab the ball, three points, and goals.
Chen Yekai made a gesture and switched positions with Ou Qihang. Chen Yekai stabbed Ou Qihang in the head with one hand, and with a reproachful expression, Ou Qihang went to defend Zhou Sheng, Chen Yekai defended Yu Hao, and the two switched positions.
"I thought you wouldn't touch him again." Yu Hao started to move, Chen Yekai followed Yu Hao like a shadow, Yu Hao was in front for a while, Chen Yekai was in front for a while.
"It's okay to forget about the rainy night." Chen Yekai said, "There are too few friends, it's always good to make friends, why are you jealous?"
Yu Hao laughed, seeing Fu Liqun pass the ball, but Chen Yekai took it away. Chen Yekai passed Huang Ting, Huang Ting passed Yu Hao, passed Ou Qihang, and Ou Qihang made a three-step layup.
"You are busy dating." Chen Yekai said, "No one is playing with me."
"Be careful with peach blossoms." Yu Hao said.
Chen Yekai: "The little boy confided his love for you to me, would you like to hear it?"
Yu Hao: "..."
Yu Hao immediately exploded when he heard this, and the ball was snatched away by Chen Yekai again. Zhou Sheng said, "Don't be mentally attacked by him!"
Fortunately, Fu Liqun was quick to intercept Chen Yekai. Yu Hao glanced at Chen Yekai angrily and decided not to talk to him anymore. The six of them went all out. Yu Hao felt that the game was too difficult. Huang Ting, Chen Yekai and Ou Qihang cooperated even better than the three of them. They often used fake moves to deceive them. monkey play.
