Chapter 2 The past is dusty, looking at the present
When he walked to the school gate, he showed the school administrator the leave request form issued by the teacher. Chen Mo walked out of the school smoothly. He turned around and looked at the whole school. He still had a dreamy feeling. He stared at everything in front of him and said, "I'm not dreaming."
After a while, Chen Mo turned around, pulled on the strap of his schoolbag, and walked towards the home in his memory. At this time, he didn't have a specific idea in his mind. He was confused and needed to go back home and sort it out.
Walking on a street with few pedestrians, the few pedestrians on the street also noticed Chen Mo, a student who seemed to be absent from school. Some pedestrians even asked Chen Mo if school was over this morning.
The home in my memory was only three blocks away from the school. When passing the first intersection, the stage being built by the roadside attracted Chen Mo's attention.
Just at this time, the staff pulled up a huge banner:
"Registration for fresh graduates' concert begins".
"Upgrade Concert?" Related memories appeared in Chen Mo's mind. Officially it was called the Fresh Students Concert, but the popular name was the Upgrade Concert.
The promotion concert is an annual event and is specially prepared for college entrance examination students. Generally, registration starts two months before the college entrance examination and ends at the beginning of the college entrance examination. After the college entrance examination, the event starts and officially begins. This is a global event, organized by the World Entertainment Association
Organized by its affiliated music guilds and hosted by local branches.
Registration has begun. Chen Mo took a deep look and turned to leave.
This is an entertainment-oriented world. This makes Chen Mo's understanding of the world more real.
The world of entertainment! The world of entertainment! Live under the sky of entertainment.
Unknowingly, he walked into the community and walked to the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar building. As if in a dream, a sudden feeling flowed in Chen Mo's heart.
Chen Mo stood there and looked up at the balcony of the home. After a while, Chen Mo grabbed the keys in his pocket and walked up the corridor.
The corridor was quiet, and Chen Mo walked slowly, feeling the familiar yet unfamiliar feeling. He also felt that the closer he walked, the closer he got to home, and the more peaceful he felt in his heart.
Opening the door and entering the house, the surroundings were still quiet and there was no one at home. His parents didn't come back at noon on weekdays, and Chen Mo's lunch was also served in the school cafeteria.
Today was a special case. Chen Mo returned home alone, savoring the contradictory memories and confusion in his mind.
Fortunately, he can still have something to do. The books he brought back from school can help him understand the world better, fully integrate into it, get rid of confusion, and establish a new direction for progress.
Walking into the bedroom, the room was slightly dark because the curtains covered the window, blocking the sunlight from outside to the room.
Chen Mo came to the window sill, grabbed the curtain and pulled it. The bright sunlight shone on his face. Chen Mo narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his hand to block it.
A little bit of the blazing sunshine in summer shines indoors, refreshing the mind.
Putting down his hands, he saw in front of him a desk that had been tidied up by his mother Riri. It was clean and tidy. Next to it was a small bookcase filled with books.
Bed, desk, computer desk, bookcase, and a black guitar lying quietly in the corner of the room.
Chen Mo took the book out of his bag, sat down at the desk, and started reading. Although he had memories of the world, he still urgently needed to understand the world more deeply.
In addition to the books brought back from school, Chen Mo also picked through the books on the bookshelves and read them.
Time passed quickly while Chen Mo was reading with nothing else in mind, and too much time passed without him realizing it.
Suddenly there was the sound of the door opening and the sound of someone entering the house.
Chen Mo got up and looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table. It turned out to be 12 o'clock.
Immediately, I walked out of the bedroom and saw my mother, Wang Shuxia, who had just entered the door.
"Mom." She screamed out instinctively from her body and deep consciousness.
Mother Wang Shuxia, who turned around when she heard Chen Mo's cry, was also slightly surprised, "Xiao Mo? Why are you back today? Have you eaten?"
Studying in high school is stressful, not to mention that the college entrance examination is approaching in the third year of high school, so Chen Mo doesn't go home much at noon and always eats in the school cafeteria.
His parents rarely came back at noon in the past, and usually stayed at the newspaper office. Therefore, Chen Mo was similarly surprised when he saw his mother, Wang Shuxia.
"I haven't eaten yet. I don't feel well today, so I asked the teacher for a day off and came back to take a rest."
"Not feeling well? Are you sick?" Mom Wang Shuxia walked to Chen Mo eagerly, concern evident in her words, "Is there anything serious? Do you want mom to take you to the hospital?"
"It's nothing. I was a little dizzy this morning. I came back and took a rest. I'm almost fine now." Chen Mo said softly, "Mom, why are you back?"
Wang Shuxia touched Chen Mo's forehead and felt relieved when Chen Mo said it was okay. "The newspaper office is not busy. I'll come back to get something." Wang Shuxia said, turned around and walked into the kitchen. A voice came, "It's already noon.
You haven’t eaten yet, mommy will cook you something to eat.”
Quietly watching his mother who was busy walking into the kitchen, a feeling she had never felt before suddenly emerged, warmth and intoxication. This was something Chen Mo, who was an orphan in his previous life, had never felt.
Soon, the food was ready. Wang Shuxia greeted her son to eat, and after finishing the meal with Chen Mo, Wang Shuxia went to the newspaper office, cleared the dishes, and at the same time told Chen Mo,
"Xiao Mo, just take a good rest at home in the afternoon. It's okay to go to school tomorrow."
"But I have to go to the library this afternoon."
"Go to the library?" Wang Shuxia walked out of the kitchen after clearing the dishes and asked in surprise, "What are you doing in the library? Mom will buy you any books you need."
Chen Mo said: "I'll go there and check the information. I can just go there myself."
"Okay, you can do it yourself. Mom will give you some money. If you like some good books, buy them and read them. Don't come back too late."
"Yeah, I understand." Chen Mo did not refuse and took the money handed over by his mother.
…
After his mother Wang Shuxia passed by, Chen Mo took the money given by his mother and some of his own money and went out.
After leaving the door, Chen Mo walked in one direction. There was a library nearby that was not far from home. Moreover, this library was one of the largest libraries in the city, and it was also Chen Mo's destination this time.
Walking slowly on the street, his heart was very calm. Chen Mo discovered one thing. From the time he traveled to the present, there seemed to be no big disturbance in his heart. His heart could always remain calm, and nothing seemed to affect him.
After walking a few streets and passing a few intersections, the library appeared in front of us. At this time, there was not much traffic in the library, and it stood quietly in the center of the city.
