"Seeing that you are tired, let me rest for a while." Chu Tianshu said, "Leiner, sit down."
After uttering these famous words of Allen, facing Lin Huai's life-doubting eyes, he shrugged his shoulders openly: "You stay here and don't move around, I will make six copies of you right now. You are sleepy If this is the case, don’t go up and fight.”
As he spoke, he rubbed Lin Huai's head, and carefully fastened the seat belt to prevent him from falling from the wheelchair. Lin Huai's hair was messed up by him, and he couldn't help but ask, "Are you caring about me?"
"No," Chu Tianshu said, "No, I was worried that when you hit someone, you climbed down to help me, but you got dizzy from sleepiness and hit me instead."
Lin Huai: ...
He covered his face.
"In that case, let's start." Chu Tianshu looked towards the opposite side, "Which one of you will go first?"
The six replicas looked at each other.
After a long while, the leader duplicating body said: "After eye contact, we think 1v6 is really unbeatable, so we decided..."
"Run away."
As soon as the words fell, the six replicas fled in different directions.
Chu Tianshu stood where he was and did not chase them. He squatted down and took out a handful of metal balls from his pocket.
The metal ball was thrown on the ground by him. After spinning a few times, they divided into six groups and rolled over in six different directions.
When he turned his head, he saw Lin Huai sitting in a wheelchair, covering his face.
"What's wrong with you?" he asked.
"... I feel ashamed."
For a long time, the other party replied feebly.
"Ah? What embarrassment?" Chu Tianshu stared at the wheelchair under the other party for a while, and suddenly realized, "What a big deal, look at Professor X, he also sits in a wheelchair..."
"No, I just think..." Lin Huai stammered a little unexpectedly, "It's embarrassing for a copy of my face to be scared by you and run away."
…Also, I would be ashamed that you saw me at my worst and not amazed at my best.
"This is not escaping, it's judging the situation." Chu Tianshu said seriously, "This shows that your clone also has a very smart mind."
Lin Huai: "...I'm not happy at all."
As he spoke, he looked at the metal ball that was rolling away quickly, and asked, "What is this?"
Chu Tianshu: "The art of movement."
"what?"
"You'll know in a while." The other party said deeply.
Ten minutes later, six explosions came from different places.
Lin Huai: ...
Chu Tianshu: "Art is an explosion."
"Just now, when you took out the wheelchair, the attention of your six clones all stayed on my right hand. At that time, I took the opportunity to release the 'Yin Ball' with my left hand, and made them secretly paste themselves into the on the ankle of the clone." While walking on the road, Chu Tianshu explained the principle of the props, "Afterwards, I released the 'Yang Ball', and they will automatically find the location of the 'Yin Ball' and combine with it .The combination of them will release a small-scale explosion, and the resulting flame will burn the contacted person into ashes."
As he was talking, Lin Huai noticed that the "1/64" on his head jumped.
"5/64"
"5/64?"
He was a little confused: "Does the seventh me have 11 fingers?"
No matter how you think about it, it is useless to think too much. Chu Tianshu rubbed his head: "Yes, starting from tomorrow, we have to work hard for a while."
Meanwhile, Riverside.
The pale boy climbed up the embankment with difficulty.
He was already drenched all over, and he stumbled on the road. When passers-by saw his strange appearance again, they couldn't help but glance at him from the corner of their eyes.
"Mom, this is..."
"Don't look at him." The woman covered the little girl's eyes.
The boy was deaf to all this. If Lin Huai was still here, he should have recognized this person.
He's the one who slashed him and sucked a lot of his blood...
front table.
A faint tear mole had already appeared in the corner of his eye. In this way, the boy walked towards his home step by step, like a zombie.
Chu Tianshu pushed Lin Huai's wheelchair into a warehouse. Lin Huai looked around curiously: "What is this?"
"It used to be someone else's warehouse." Chu Tianshu said, "There are rooms in it for people to live in."
"now what?"
"It's my warehouse now."
Lin Huai: ...
Chu Tianshu thought for a while, and then said: "I have already persuaded Zhenzi and Jiaye, but it is a bit busy there today, it is not convenient to go back, and there is no car now, and it will take more than an hour to walk back on the road... Let's go back to the Rest here for the night."
"Persuasion..." Lin Huaixu rolled his eyes, "Do you mean physical persuasion... Hmm."
"Don't move around." Chu Tianshu took out a piece of cotton and began to try to disinfect Lin Huai, "I'm disinfecting you."
The battle just now left a huge scar on Lin Huai's arm. Lin Huai looked at the top of his hairy head, and said for a long time, "You don't need to give me medicine, it will grow up on its own in a while, how can it be so delicate."
Chu Tianshu was silent for a long time. The warm yellow light in the warehouse fell on his long eyelashes.
After a long time, he said:
"Yeah, I almost forgot."
He quickly put the unused cotton and bandages back into the medicine cabinet: "Take them back first, and they can be recycled next time."
Lin Huai: ...
"You change your face too quickly! Shouldn't you insist on giving me medicine at this time, and say 'but even so, I don't want to see your wound'!" Lin Huai complained loudly, "And you Actually took them back! Take them back!"
"Save resources and protect the environment." Chu Tianshu put the medicine box back into the package.
Lin Huai: ...
Chu Tianshu took out a pocky from his pocket and gave it to him. Lin Huai stared at him coldly for a while, and then decided to abandon the past for the sake of the chocolate biscuit stick.
He ducked down and took the biscuit stick, and began to chew. Chu Tianshu got up from the squatting position, put another pocky between his fingers, and made a cigar-smoking pose.
"Speaking of which, there are still five copies of me dangling outside." Lin Huai said, "As time goes by, they will become stronger and more like me."
He thought for a while, and then said: "If I were a duplicate, I would definitely pretend to be the real body, and come to people who are familiar with me—especially you, they will definitely come to you. Tonight, because the newborns don't have Clothes, you can still easily distinguish me from them. But after tomorrow, it will be very difficult to distinguish us... You can’t be by my side twenty-four hours a day, we will definitely be separated, if The clones came in at that moment...we had to figure out a way to separate me from them."
"signal?"
"Yes, a code, and it can't be a code that I know." Lin Huai pointed to his brain, "They perfectly copied me at the moment of injury—my appearance, my ability, and my memory."
"A code that all your clones can't figure out..." Chu Tianshu thought for a while, then said, "Odd changes and even changes?"
Lin Huai showed contempt in his eyes: "... the symbols look at the quadrant."
Chu Tianshu: "Ah, hydrogen helium lithium beryllium boron?"
Lin Huai: "... CNOF neon."
Chu Tianshu: "What is gay!!"
Lin Huai: "Which way is more!! Do you think I haven't seen "Naruto"?"
Chu Tianshu: "Yang Zhi ever listened to the rain?"
Lin Huai: "Where is Jiangnan today?"
After several wonderful rounds of attack and defense, Chu Tianshu scratched his head in distress: "Why have you seen everything?"
Lin Huai, who had no business during school, read novels, watched TV and watched anime every day, lowered her head in shame: "Why don't we make a special password?"
"What code?"
"Only you and I know the special code." Lin Huai said, "For example, the day of hoeing at noon, the picture of going up the river during the Qingming Festival...forget it."
He quickly rejected his proposal: "With my ingenuity, I will be able to deduce it quickly."
Chu Tianshu: ...
Lin Huai boasted to himself without any psychological pressure, and then, he felt a little headache again.
'A code...' he thought, 'a code that was unexpected, unexpected, impossible for me to deduce...'
After thinking about it for a long time, he still felt that his IQ was unparalleled in the world, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost.
"So how did you get hurt today?" Chu Tianshu helped him press his sore wrist, and asked, "I just left for two hours and spent two hours looking for you... You were stabbed to death?"
Lin Huai: ...
Being backstabbed by an npc is really a bit embarrassing... But he finally entrusted the matter completely: "Oh, it hurts..."
Chu Tianshu slowed down a bit, and said expressionlessly, "Is that npc dead?"
"I threw it into the river..." Lin Huai rubbed his nose.
He sighed: "Oh, in this world, it's so difficult to be beautiful."
Chu Tianshu: ...
"Everyone wants to possess me, everyone wants to kill me." He complained, "Only you, a real straight man."
"Honestly." He looked up at him, "You really don't have any feelings for me?"
Chu Tianshu: ...
His hands stopped.
"...you are really my loyal friend." Lin Huai patted him on the shoulder and glanced at him with a smile, "My safety depends on you."
Chu Tianshu: "Oh."
The two looked at each other in silence. Chu Tianshu then said: "Oh, it's all on me."
Lin Huai: ...
I don't know why, seeing Chu Tianshu's upright appearance like a log, Lin Huai suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Chu Tianshu is always like this, changing the topic, pretending to be a fake, a straight man of steel...
He was inexplicably irritable.
In order to hide his displeasure, he casually said, "Let's think about the code...for example..."
He stopped suddenly, and lowered his eyes a little irritably.
Chu Tianshu looked at him quietly, but suddenly coughed. He seemed to be casually saying: "...as long as it's a code that you can't reason out, it's enough, right?"
"Yeah." Lin Huai said, "But my IQ is always peerless, alas, I'm too good, it's also a kind of trouble..."
"How about it," Chu Tianshu said, "How about answering a question?"
"what is the problem?"
"The content of the question is—what did I do to you at 1:15 on the third day after entering the copy of Fu Jiang?"
Lin Huai: "... what if a clone figured it out?"
"what?"
"After all, there are only a few things that we can do between us." Lin Huai glanced at the clock and counted his fingers, "Eating, chatting, playing disco, joking... These are all things that are easy to get. If there is There are countless duplicates, one of them can be guessed by mistake, and it is fourteen minutes past one, you... "
He counted his fingers carefully and lowered his eyes. Under the light, his black hair was smooth, his eyelashes curled up, and there seemed to be sparkling light in his eyes.
At that moment, Chu Tianshu was in a trance suddenly seeing his serious appearance.
— It was as if at that moment, he traveled through many years and returned to a long time ago.
Back to the day they first met in "Chen Xing".
The picture in the memory is so clear.
'Have you ever had a relationship before? ' Chen Liexue asked.
The two looked at each other and shook their heads.
'Let's work together from today on. Chen Liexue looked at her watch, "I have a book to bring, so I'll leave first." '
After he left the room, Chu Tianshu, who had buried himself in the pile of documents, spoke.
'Get this thing in order for me. ' He casually threw a stack of documents at the other party.
His expression was extremely indifferent, as if he didn't want to take a second look at the other party. The other party took the file, shrugged, found a small chair and sat down to count.
It took a long time for Chu Tianshu to walk towards him.
The person who didn't listen to his advice and gave him a headache sat on a chair and carefully organized it according to the page number. He lowered his head, drooping eyelashes, slender fingers, and smooth hair.
He looks very well-behaved, but Chu Tianshu knows that the young boy who didn't listen to advice back then has grown into a young man who doesn't listen to advice now.
'All right. ' said the young man.
Only then did Chu Tianshu realize that he was distracted. He took the document, said "um", turned and left.
In the following many long days, this picture appeared again and again in Chu Tianshu's dreams.
This dream has come too many times, like a turning point that should have been promoted by him, but also like an incomprehensible trap. He stood on the edge of the dream, looking at himself in the dream, and Lin Huai in the dream. He remembered the smell of printing paper, the time when Chen Liexue left, and even how many eyelashes Lin Huai had that day, he could almost count them.
The details of this dream are clear and logical. The only thing comparable to it was the afternoon when 12-year-old Lin Huai ran towards him.
'If I didn't take the file that day... but...'
but what
