14 years time difference

The neighborhood was extremely noisy early in the morning.

On the last day of August, when primary and secondary schools start school, children downstairs in the community are full of children who just got their books from school, screaming loudly and running around. A loudspeaker is placed at the entrance of the security booth. Loudspeaker, repeating a recording: Dear residents and friends in this community, the end of the month is here, please pay the property fee to the management office, please pay the property fee...

Du Zhian carried a big cake and walked ahead proudly. Lin Zhique walked behind Du Zhian impatiently with his pockets in his pockets. The last residual heat of summer gradually climbed up as the sun rose. The skin on her bare arms, legs and neck, the sweaty elementary school boys chasing after her, God knows how much she wanted to trip them up.There was no parking space in the community, so Du Shen left the two of them behind and drove the car somewhere.

If Du Zhi'an hadn't made a big fuss and asked to stay in Jincheng for one more day to celebrate Du Si's birthday, she should have gone to school to pick up the books on this day.

Du Zhian has been in a bad mood for the past few days. As for why she is not good, it is all because of her legendary aunt, Du Siren. .She was in a bad mood, so she became more arrogant and unreasonable, and fought with Lin Zhique from morning to night every day. If this continued, Lin Zhique felt that she was about to become a fighting cock. Fortunately, Du Shen finally negotiated with Du Zhian, Decided to have lunch and birthday cake at Du's house, and then took the afternoon plane back to East China.

Du Zhian suddenly stopped in front of him.

Lin Zhique almost bumped his head on it.

"Hey, today is my aunt's birthday. Remember to be quiet and don't spoil the fun." Du Zhian turned around. "I heard you call her by her first name last time, that's very impolite!"

Lin Zhique retorted: "Didn't you say that it was your aunt, not my aunt? You can't be called aunt, and you can't be called Du Siren, so what is it called? Hello?"

Du Zhian should know that he was wrong, and his tone was a bit weak: "...Anyway, don't spoil today's good day, with a stinky face all day long, and I don't know who owes you!"

A child stood at the gate of the community and shouted to his friends: "Hey! Do you know? The Dusi people live in our community! The Dusi people on TV! You come to my house to play!"

The two aunts came in with vegetable baskets on their shoulders, and chatted as they walked: "Oh, it seems to be true. I have seen that girl before, and she is indeed a bit obedient." My daughter! Teacher Du in Eighteenth Middle School, his wife used to be my grandson’s homeroom teacher! Oh, the competition ended a few days ago, shouldn’t she be back?” “She’s become a big star on TV, so why not come back? If it’s me, I’ll move to live in a big villa right away…”

Du Zhian was quite proud of hearing this: "Did you hear that? You can eat aunt's birthday cake, and no one else would be envious."

"What are you envious of? It's amazing to have a birthday?" Lin Zhique disagreed.

"Go online and see how many fans wish her a happy birthday? Just the blessing posts on Tieba are as tall as [-] buildings."

"So what? The whole country needs to celebrate? Otherwise, you go to the National People's Congress to make a proposal, and the National Day will be changed to August 8 in the future."

"I can't explain it to you!" Du Zhian glared at her, and then a half-smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he had thought of how to fight back. Sure enough, the next sentence was: "After all, you probably don't know what family is. What is family affection, you have never lived in a normal family like ours."

The back of Lin Zhique's neck was sweating, and the back of her head was numb, as if a thorn on the top of her head stood up.

Du Zhian managed to offend her.

"Okay." She raised her chin, "It's so amazing, it should be announced to the world and have fun with the common people!" She strode towards the security booth, and grabbed the loudspeaker that was repeating "Please pay the property fee..." After confirming that this thing can make her voice spread throughout the community, she raised it to her lips, and said with a heavy voice, "I would like to inform you that today is the birthday of Du Siren, the big star in unit 3, 502. Everyone, remember to prepare Congratulations with a good gift..."

This sound was amplified dozens of times, with the harsh mixing and hoarse reverberation of inferior loudspeakers, shaking the world and crying ghosts and gods, waking up the Dusi people upstairs from their sleep.

She opened her eyes, frowned and looked at the ceiling, suspecting that she had just misheard while half asleep and half awake.

She rolled over from the bed, stood up in a daze, went to the window, opened the curtains, and looked down to see Zhi'an and Zhi Que fighting for a loudspeaker next to the security booth. She opened the window and heard Ann screamed, "You're crazy! Crazy woman!"

The security uncle came out to persuade: "Hey, little girl, don't fight!"

Du Siren brushed his messy hair back, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the two little nieces downstairs dumbfounded.

The 13-year-old Lin Zhique raised his chin and said nothing. He just raised the loudspeaker high above his head and quickly avoided Zhian's snatching action. : "What can you do to me".

Sure enough, this person has not been a fuel-efficient lamp since he was a child.

Dusiren pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, feeling that her mouth was a bit dry. She walked to the desk and sat down, picked up the water glass on the table, and took a sip of overnight cold water.

Spread out on the table is Lin Zhique's notebook, which is now hers. From the day before yesterday to last night, she filled most of this notebook, and also developed a thick stack of photos, all of which were clipped into the notebook inside.

She read what she had written page by page.

Since the day Lin Zhique disappeared, some changes are quietly taking place in this world, and she knows it.

The first person to forget was Zhu He.

That day, Li Miaomiao also called, saying that Zhu He was furious, and asked her if she knew where Lin Zhique had gone.She had no choice but to find an excuse to prevaricate, saying that she seemed to have something urgent to go back to her hometown.

Another day later, Li Miaomiao called her again to talk to her about work. She was quite confused in her words, saying that Zhu He had changed her sex, but she didn't pursue it all at once, and hired two new managers.

She called to test Zhu He, but Zhu He actually asked her: Miss Bird?Who are you talking about?

Then, there is Lu Xiaohua.

The day after she told Xiao Hua the whole thing in detail, Xiao Hua suddenly couldn't remember who Lin Zhique was. That sister", after another day, I forgot everything again.

why?

She noticed that some parts of her memory related to Lin Zhique began to become blurred, especially when she saw the 13-year-old Xiao Zhique. She had to leave early and return late for several days in a row to avoid meeting her.

Before the program crew returned all the rooms, she went back to the hotel again and took away all of Lin Zhique's personal belongings.Two staff members were checking in at the front desk, and she heard them say: Huh? Who lives in Room 7012?It has been open for so long.Forgot, so many people.It may be a musician teacher from other places.

Li Miaomiao still remembers it, and so does Lu Shan, but she suspects that they only remember it "temporarily". During the phone call the day before, Lu Shan suddenly asked her, "Hey, what's Miss Bird's name? Suddenly I can't remember it." .”

She ran to call the police, and when she arrived at the police station, the police asked her, how long has your friend been missing?She replied, it has been a long time.So the police politely asked her out of the house.She also asked middle school classmates who graduated from the household registration department to help with the investigation, but they replied that they could not even find half of the roughly matching objects.

She once wondered whether Lin Zhique turned into a child overnight, like "Detective Conan", but according to Zhi'an, Zhi'an also had a fight with 13-year-old Zhique in East China before. Other big and small disputes and quarrels are constant. It is impossible for Lin Zhique to be in Jincheng and East China at the same time. He is 27 years old and 13 years old at the same time.

After all these bizarre things happened, after stepping into a dead end in his mind time and time again, Du Siren wrote four words in Lin Zhique's notebook: time and space travel.

is it possible?

She looked at these four words in a daze all night.

Then, she began to desperately recall every bit of the relationship between them, every day and every thing they were together. The heart is empty.

It's not that she can't bear to lose, she would rather be rejected by Lin Zhique a hundred times than allow the world to lie to her that nothing happened.

Du Siren stood up and walked out of the room to wash up. Today is her 21st birthday.

While spitting the foam from her mouth into the sink, she heard the door opening downstairs, and then Zhi An, who entered the door, complained loudly, in a very aggrieved tone: "Grandpa! Did you hear that? I told her not to do that son!"

Du Siren splashed water on his face, rubbed his face vigorously, then took a deep breath, and went downstairs.

It seemed that Zhi'an was the only one who came in, and her father was asking Zhi'an: "What about her? Where is Zhi Que? Where did she go?"

Zhi'an replied angrily: "I don't know her! If she doesn't come up, I don't care about her!" She turned her head and saw her, and immediately came forward to complain: "Auntie! What are you busy with these days? Do you have a job? ? Didn’t you say you’re resting these days?”

Du Siren had no choice but to lie and claim that it was a temporary job. Zhian expressed his understanding after hearing this, and said like a young adult: "Being an artist is very busy! You have to adapt as soon as possible."

Then, Zhi'an took her to look at the birthday cake on the dining table.

She asked, "What were you doing downstairs just now?"

Zhi'an muttered: "... Lin Zhique went crazy, and he couldn't stop it."

"It's fine, why are you crazy?"

Zhi'an took out a box of birthday candles with different designs and colors from the handbag of the cake shop, "Look, don't they look good? Which one do you like? 21 candles are a bit too much, otherwise, let's just light one and light this star." shaped."

She smiled: "kid, you are changing the subject."

Zhi'an had no choice but to confess reluctantly: "Then how do I know that she reacted so badly? It's just a few words of bickering. Usually she doesn't have a few nice words to me."

"How many times have you bickered? What did you say about her?" Du Siren spoke softly.

"It's nothing, she said you were bad first, and I'm helping you!"

"What did she say was wrong with me?"

"That is to say... I said that my birthday is nothing special, and that I should go to the National People's Congress to make a proposal if I have the ability to change the National Day to today."

Dusi laughed out loud.

He has been sharp-tongued since he was a child.

"and then?"

"Then..." Zhi'an finally confessed, "I'll just say that she doesn't understand kinship and family, because she hasn't lived in a normal family..." The more she said, the lower her voice, and she glanced at the dining table , on the side cabinet, just not looking into Du Siren's eyes, "However, I'm not wrong."

Du Siren looked at the little niece in front of him and was silent for a few seconds.

In those few seconds, she was thinking, the last time, the last time Lin Zhique has experienced, before she grew up to be 27 years old, what did I do?

Perhaps, from the beginning, it was only regarded as an awkwardness between children, and they would not ask about it at all.

She said softly: "You are not wrong, so why didn't you dare to say it just now?"

Zhi'an hesitated for a few seconds, and then came to hold Du Siren back, rubbing his head against her arm like a kitten, showing weakness in a low voice: "I know. Wait a minute, I can cut the biggest piece of cake for her to eat." gone."

Her little niece, Zhian, was well educated since she was a child. Although she is a bit of a spoiled girl from a rich family, she is more sensible and understands right and wrong than her peers. She doesn't understand. It is she who relies on her preference, and is afraid of being taken away by others. It is she who finds that her life has changed, and she must find an enemy for this change that she can rival.

Her father called Zhi'an in the kitchen and asked if she wanted some popsicles, but Zhi'an hurriedly slipped away from her.

"By the way, darling," Du Jingguang stood by the refrigerator, "What did you say you were going to work these few days? Was it arranged by your Director Zhu? Your Director Zhu also looks like a star. I saw you on the day of the finals. Only after we found out it was her, we met in East China before, she accompanied that dialect to the filming, and we went to watch the excitement."

Zhi'an doubted: "Grandma will go to see this kind of excitement with you?"

"Of course it's not your grandma. Zhi Que and I went to see it together." Du Jingguang chuckled.

"Oh!" Zhian pouted.

The grandpa and grandson began to quarrel with each other, and then they both squatted down to pick out popsicles in the freezer of the refrigerator. Du Siren quietly opened the door and left the house while they were not paying attention.

Zhu He was the first to forget Lin Zhique, faster than Lu Xiaohua who hadn't seen Lin Zhique for a long time. Is it because she met 13-year-old Xiao Zhique in East China?

While thinking, she walked down the stairs with a pair of slippers on her feet.

As a result, as soon as she walked out of the unit building, she was surrounded by groups.

First, the little boy who spotted her yelled, "Oh, I'm going!"Dusi people!That Dusi man is here!She is really here!

Then another yelled: You are blind!This is not it!Nothing like it!

(She thought to herself: It’s not so much different before and after makeup, right?)

Then there was the scream of the little girl, and two more courageous ones approached her and asked her timidly: "Sister, can I sign it?"

Then there are aunts who are holding vegetable baskets, carrying plastic bags and dancing Tai Chi fans: Xiao Du, are you back?I'm Ms. Sun from Unit 2, do you recognize me?Come take a photo with the lady, the lady just changed this camera phone!Today is your birthday?Shall we sing you a birthday song?

She had completely forgotten that she was a public figure, and she was still wearing bear-print pajamas.

Just when she was tired of dealing with this group of people, when she raised her eyes, she found Lin Zhique standing not far behind the crowd, watching her with great interest.

For a moment, she had the illusion that it was her.

But no, the face of the person in front of him is much more childish than hers.

The neighbors formed a circle around the Dusi people, and actually started singing happy birthday while clapping their hands, so the Dusi people had to laugh and sing along.

The 13-year-old Zhi Que was standing behind the crowd and sniggering. When she noticed that the Dusi people were looking at her, she restrained herself for half a second, and then immediately put on a nonchalant expression.

Du Siren nodded, bowed, signed and took a group photo, and finally sent all the gods away. She suspected that they didn't really leave, but went back and called their families to visit. She winked at Lin Zhique not far away, Whisper her, "Hey!"

The magpie walked over slowly.

Du Siren tilted his head and smiled at her.

Why did he start cultivating this hateful look of composure since he was a child?

She came up to her, just over her chin.She will grow taller again, maybe a little longer, Du Siren judged with her eyes.

The man from Dusi asked, "It was you who caused me to be visited like a monkey in a zoo just now?"

She didn't deny it either: "That's right."

"I'm ashamed to say it. Let's go? Let's dry it here. Your grandpa is waiting for you upstairs to eat popsicles."

Lin Zhique seemed a little surprised when he heard this, and didn't answer, but obediently followed Du Siren into the unit building.

"...Are you coming down to find me?" she finally asked.

"Of course."

"What are you looking for me for?"

"What are you doing? Whoever's child is lost, they have to look for it." Du Siren replied naturally.

They walked up the stairs, and Du Siren asked Lin Zhique to walk a little ahead of her.

"... who is the child?"

"Then you say, 21 years old or 13 years old, which one is a child?"

"whispering sound!"

Du Siren smiled and said to Lin Zhique, "I'm 21 years old today!"

"Oh! You're only 21 years old, so you're not very old!" Lin Zhique's tone was a little more relaxed than before.

"Is it okay? That's good. Today is my birthday. As an adult, I can grant you one wish."

Lin Zhique replied without thinking, "Then I want the world to be destroyed."

"... so ruthless? I'm only 21 years old, and I want to live a few more years."

"...Then," Lin Zhique stopped and turned around, "is it really possible to make a wish?" There was a hint of caution in her stubborn eyes.

"En." Du Siren nodded solemnly.

So, 13-year-old Zhi Que said, "Can you get Chen Jia's autograph for me?"

"..."

It was Chen Jia again.

The next time we meet, she will definitely cut Chen Jia's guitar strings.

I had no choice but to agree.

After entering the house, Lin Zhique wrote a small note and handed it to her: "Send it to me at this address."

Du Shen didn't know when they went upstairs first. At this moment, he was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.Du Zhian sat beside him, he read a few lines absent-mindedly, and when he saw a certain word, he would suddenly ask her: How do you say this word in English?

When Du Siren saw Lin Zhique roll his eyes, he walked past the father and daughter to the balcony full of flowers and plants.

The phone rang loudly, and Du Shen picked up a call.

He said to the other end: "Huh? What investigation team? Uh. Uh. Oh. The news from the top? When are they going to act? Okay, okay, I see, thank you buddy. It's okay, clear conscience Things. Wait for me to go back and treat you to dinner."

Du Siren listened intently and held his breath.

The phone hung up, the reading of the newspaper continued, and the English question-and-answer session between the father and daughter continued.

Du Siren went upstairs lightly and returned to his room.

She took out Lin Zhique's laptop from the drawer.She originally wanted to find a chance to return it to the company.

Lin Zhique wrote a report letter, and put it in the most prominent place on the computer desktop together with the electronic files of those documents and photos.

It was a report letter about her brother's company Shenxing Group.

Du Siren opened the document and rubbed his temples.She had read it before, but she didn't quite understand it. Compared with the documents in those photos, it seemed that there was no real evidence.She didn't know if Lin Zhique had sent this letter. Could the call Du Shen just received have something to do with this letter?

After thinking for a long time, she dug out a USB flash drive from the drawer, made a copy of these materials, and then threw all the originals in the computer into the recycle bin and shredded them.

It's okay to come here through time and space inexplicably, and leave her with such and such incidents before leaving.

Du Siren dug out a photo of her and Lin Zhique from her notebook.

It's my birthday today.She told her in her heart.What about the wish owed to me?

There are birds chirping outside the window.She took a long breath and stretched.

She thought, I have a lot of adults, so let you owe it first.

After this day passed, the company's notice came quickly. Du Siren's management affairs were assigned to Li Miaomiao, and Chen Jia was personally in charge of Zhu He. The top ten players were collectively called to Beijing to start a one-month training camp.

After the training camp, until the end of the year, they will hold concert tours all over the country.

Changes are still happening quietly, and one day, Lu Shan no longer remembers Lin Zhique.

Du Siren didn't show any abnormality. She put the notebook that recorded everything in the interlayer of her bag and carried it with her, secretly resisting.

In September, the air in Beijing was crisp and clear, and the air was dry. She was not acclimatized to the environment. In the first few days of her arrival, she started to get nosebleeds several times while dancing in the dance studio.

The company rented a few apartments for them to spend temporarily, and they seized all their spare time to go out to play, to the Forbidden City, to Chang'an Avenue, to Houhai, once, Zhou Zipei, who had been floating in Beijing, said he would take them to Guijie Street for supper, As a result, it caused a sensation in the whole street, and the photo taken by a passer-by the next day even hit the headlines of the entertainment page.Zhu He was furious, and only Chen Jia, who was too lazy to move and stayed at home to sleep, and Dialect, who never ate supper, escaped.

Tao Lexin's parents sent her textbooks and workbooks from Guangzhou, and they called her every day to tell her to write. To be their little follower, the older sister and the older sister called shortly.

For a whole month, in addition to the training and classes, there were frequent interviews, shooting magazines, meeting various producers, and shooting an advertisement.

Every day in Beijing, life is completely different from the past 21 years.

In short, for Dusi people, this is a new and wider world.

In October, the plane took off from the Capital Airport, headed south, the first stop of the tour.

Dusi sat by the window.

She thought, the ginkgo trees by the Jinnan River should turn yellow, right?

The plane entered level flight and was higher than the clouds. Looking down from the window, the clouds were soft and clean.What are these clouds?Above this cloud is the dome, and above that is the Milky Way, flying out of the Milky Way, there is an infinite universe.What is beyond the universe?

Is Lin Zhique, like her, in a corner of all this?

For her, regardless of whether Lin Zhique is present or not, a new life track has been laid out in front of her infinitely far away, and she must start.

She was determined to run fast and fast, and she was determined to fight to the end.

If there is space between her and her, she will cross thousands of mountains and rivers.

If there is time between her and her, she will wait until the day when she reunites with her in the future.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

good evening~

In the last update, I saw some readers say that Zhi Que actually has such a side,

All I can say about this is that it’s just showing my true nature...

Regarding the nature of this woman, the 13-year-old Little Bird chapter will express it more intuitively.

If she grew up in a more secure environment, I believe she will grow into a more flying look.

I think Si Niao would become a good friend if she was a classmate, because both of them like to cause trouble, one is purely hyperactive, and the other is unwilling to be lonely.

But Zhi Que was the only one who was scolded after the incident, because Si Ren was good at admitting mistakes.

In addition, of all the 13-year-old chapters so far, only 4-1 (12 chapters, the 13-year-old war between the wild magpie and the swan) and 17-4 Tanabata Night are the memory perspectives of Zhi magpie, and the others are about brocade Events that happened in East China at the same time in the city story line. (so I usually don't write any introductions but just transitions)

In other words, the little bird that appeared in this part is not Zhi Que's memory, nor does it completely coincide with Zhi Que's memory.

There are some very subtle changes. For example, Zhi Que has never seen Xi Nan being beaten in public, because in her timeline, this incident did not happen.

There is also Siren's blog about Zhi Que. For Zhi Que, she only saw it on Director Li's computer.

In addition, regarding whether there will be a development plot in the future:

Won't.Because someone is too upright... No, it's because I think that experience is an important part of a person, and falling in love is a very low probability event that happens between two specific people.

Every review takes a long time, because I have to queue up for the online review first, but I often fail to pass the online review (no solution), and can only wait for the staff to conduct a high-level review.

The last time it was supposed to be because it was too late and the staff fell asleep.

So if there is no update at 10 o'clock in the future, it should not be updated.

I will try my best to see you on the weekend~
