In Li Xiaohei's memory, besides his parents, Bai Xiaobai seems to be the first accident.
Even for his parents, he has no way of determining whether it was an accident or not, because he had just been reborn, and many things were not very obvious.
"what are you saying?"
Bai Xiaobai sat opposite Li Xiaohei, looking at Li Xiaohei who was obviously drunk, but did not remind him anything.
"My previous life was actually very good, um, ten years ago."
Li Xiaohei said in a daze: "At that time, I had a well-off family. My parents had a good relationship and cared about me..."
The concept of a well-off family is very broad, and different people have different standards. However, Bai Xiaobai can hear the meaning of a well-off family from Li Xiaohei's tone. It probably means breaking away from the food and clothing line and being able to make a fortune close to nine figures.
a well-off family.
"Everything should have started from my college entrance examination, when I was seventeen years old... To be precise, it should have started the day before my college entrance examination, but at that time, I couldn't notice anything."
Li Xiaohei looked at Bai Xiaobai: "Do you know what my college entrance examination score was?"
Bai Xiaobai shook his head, said nothing, and just looked at him intently.
"56 points."
Li Xiaohei laughed, with countless emotions suppressed in his smile: "All subjects, total score, fifty-six points."
"Well..."
Bai Xiaobai has a flat mouth. She has been a top student since she was a child, and can even be said to be a god. This score has exceeded her imagination.
"But before that, in every mock exam I took, my scores were hovering around 730 points. But in that college entrance examination, I only got 56 points."
Bai Xiaobai opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Xiaohei in disbelief.
730 points and 56 points.
If Li Xiaohei didn't lie, what does it mean?
"Did you hand in the paper in vain?"
Bai Xiaobai asked hesitantly.
"My family has high expectations for me, how could I make a joke about my future?"
Li Xiaohei shook his head: "I wrote down all the answers carefully, checked them countless times, and didn't miss any detail.
My memory is very good, so much so that once I have seen something, it is basically difficult to forget it.
So after the college entrance examination, I wrote down all the college entrance examination questions completely, and then wrote down my answers. Even the punctuation marks were correct. I can even now write down the contents and answers of the college entrance examination papers that year.
.
I performed very well that time, so the first estimated score was around 739 points. The score difference was within ten points, so it couldn't be wrong, but the final result was... 56 points.
I originally wanted to go to this university, but 56 points and a zero after it are not enough..."
"Why is this happening?"
Bai Xiaobai didn't question anything, but instinctively believed Li Xiaohei's words: "You didn't apply for review?"
"I applied, but my score remains unchanged."
Li Xiaohei shook his head: "I didn't know why at the time, so I repeated my studies for a year and planned to take the second college entrance examination.
On the day I re-enrolled in school, my parents died in a car accident. I became an orphan, my family's company was taken away, and my relatives... Oh, there is no need to mention most of my relatives, but I have an aunt,
She has been very kind to me since I was a child, not superficially, but really very kind to me. She is not married, has a successful business, and has no children. She completely raises me as her son.
She appeared once at my parents' funeral, and she hugged me and cried for a long time. She told me not to be afraid, and that she would take care of me in the future, and then...she never appeared again."
Bai Xiaobai's expression looked like he was listening to a story.
"I sold my house and car, paid off my debts, and then took the college entrance examination for the second time. My estimated score was 735, but the result was a total score of 59. Haha..."
"How can this be?"
Bai Xiaobai didn't believe it.
"Yeah, how is that possible?"
Li Xiaohei murmured to himself: "Compared to this kind of problem, there are even more impossible ones. In the year when I was repeating my studies, I discovered a very strange thing..."
He didn't wait for Bai Xiaobai to ask, and took the initiative: "During that year, I didn't communicate more than a hundred sentences with my deskmates, and even less with my classmates. Most of them didn't even speak to the teacher.
With no more than twenty sentences, I got first place in the grade again and again in the mock exams, even first place in the city, but I didn't get any attention, not even a basic word of praise.
When the teacher asks questions during class, I will raise my hand to speak, but no matter how I raise my hand, the teacher will not call my name. Even some questions are difficult. When I am the only one raising my hand, the teacher will naturally ignore me.
, do you understand this feeling? It’s not just one teacher, it’s all teachers, or even all classmates..."
Bai Xiaobai opened his eyes wide and wanted to say how could this be possible, but he couldn't say it for a while.
"It's incredible, right? I thought it was incredible at first. I even communicated with the teachers specifically about this problem, but the feedback they gave was no problem. It seemed that everything was just that they didn't pay attention."
"Is someone targeting you?"
Bai Xiaobai reluctantly said that in school, for a student, it is theoretically possible to have all the teachers ignore him and ignore his grades, and have the entire class ignore him and not want to communicate with him.
.
Even with Bai Xiaobai's family, if she wanted to treat someone like this in this university, she could do it.
"I thought so too at first."
Li Xiaohei nodded: "But then I entered the society, I delivered takeaways, and this problem was not so obvious. Then, I worked as an intermediary, and I distributed leaflets with my colleagues, but most of the time my leaflets were
I couldn't send it out because no one answered it. I posted it on the wall and almost no one called me. Occasionally there was a customer and I wanted to communicate with them, but they didn't bother to pay attention to me.
I used the money in my hands to speculate in stocks, and every investment proved that my vision was correct. But every time I wanted to withdraw the money I earned, I would encounter a system failure, and then I would miss the opportunity and watch helplessly.
All the money goes away.
I taught myself university knowledge and published papers online, but no matter how many times I published them, the number of views was always 0.
I bought a small cart to buy breakfast and sell late-night snacks. The business was always the worst. There were almost no customers at the end of the day. But when patrolling the museum, they would always catch me as soon as possible..."
Li Xiaohei poured himself a glass of wine again. He seemed to have drunk too much, and his desire to talk became stronger and stronger: "When I was in school, I thought my teachers and classmates ignored me because they were deliberately targeting me, but it was the same when I stepped out of society.
, is the entire society targeting me? Who has such energy?"
"after that..."
There was a strange smile in Li Xiaohei's voice: "Do you know what I did?
An accidental thought reminded me again of the so-called college entrance examination scores, once 56 and once 59. The more I thought about it, the less I understood it, so...
Relying on my memory, I re-wrote the test papers for all the subjects of the two college entrance examinations intact, and then printed them out. Then, according to my memory of the year, I wrote down the answers one by one, carefully.
After checking and confirming that there were no problems, I took my little savings and hired a high school teacher to help me grade the papers.
Before asking him to mark the paper, I did some calculations based on the standard answers. If the essay was calculated as a full score, my two college entrance examination scores should be 741 and 743. This is the result based on the answers. Then I
Found that teacher...do you know what the final score was?"
Li Xiaohei laughed. He seemed to have thought of something funny, and his smile was extremely exaggerated: "56, 59, these are the same two numbers, fifty-six, fifty-nine... I compared the answers and got the result,
As a result, the teacher’s marking was still the same two scores.
Do you know what that teacher did?
He read two multiple-choice questions from the Chinese language test paper and marked them.
I found ten multiple-choice questions from the mathematics test paper and also marked them.
As for the second college entrance examination paper, he read one more multiple-choice question.
Then, he put the pile of test papers in front of me, pointed at the test paper that was filled with answers, asked me why the remaining questions were empty, and asked me what this meant..."
"I filled in all the answers on the test paper, and he asked me why I left them blank... Hehe, hahaha...
It wasn't until that time that I truly understood why I failed the college entrance examination. The college entrance examination was graded by a machine. It turned out that in the eyes of the machine, my college entrance examination paper only consisted of ten math questions and one Chinese question. The rest were judged.
I ignored it inexplicably, but what does this mean?
In the year I repeated my studies, the teachers and classmates in the school did not ignore me.
In the years since I entered society, I have distributed leaflets, bought breakfast, written papers, and speculated in stocks...
Not everyone is targeting me.
It’s not that I don’t work hard.
But all my efforts and struggles have no effect.
It turns out...no one can see me..."
Bai Xiaobai listened to Li Xiaohei's story as if it were a book from heaven. After hesitating for a moment, she couldn't help but say: "But... if everyone really can't see you, then... then you.
..”
"It should be said that most people can't see me most of the time."
Li Xiaohei said calmly: "But when I'm about to starve to death, or when I can't survive, the situation will get better. When I can barely survive, this situation of being ignored will appear.
In other words, the sense of existence is reduced, reduced to almost non-existence."
"But if...if this is true, then why can I see you?"
Bai Xiaobai was a little confused.
"Not sure."
Li Xiaohei shook his head: "I just asked you to go downstairs. Under normal circumstances, you would naturally forget about me, forget about the people in your family, and forget about everything about me today. But you came back unexpectedly. It's really magical."
Bai Xiaobai was silent for a long time and then said softly: "I... don't really believe it."
"Then do you need me to prove it?"
Li Xiaohei's eyes were blurry when he was drunk, and he smiled a little wantonly.
"how to prove?"
Bai Xiaobai asked.
"As I said, my memory is very good. Give me paper and pen, and I can rewrite the old papers. When the time comes, you will mark the papers."
Li Xiaohei was drunk.
"All of them?"
"It's not necessary. A math test paper is enough."
Perhaps out of curiosity or other reasons, Bai Xiaobai actually brought a pen and paper.
Then Li Xiaohei actually wrote down the math test paper from that year.
Including the time he spent on last night's test paper, the whole process took less than an hour.
Bai Xiaobai was also a master of learning back then. He took the test paper and read it again, his eyes widened.
"I can see it."
She looked at Li Xiaohei: "I can see all the answers, there are no mistakes."
No errors means full marks.
She seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly took the test paper and said, "Wait for me," and then hurriedly ran out of the house.
Upstairs, Bai Xiaobai hurriedly opened the door to his parents' house.
Mother was cleaning up in the bedroom, and father was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper.
Bai Xiaobai couldn't care less and said hurriedly: "Dad, look at this."
The old man who was reading the newspaper took the test paper and glanced at it in a daze. The old man who had been engaged in applied mathematics all his life quickly came to the conclusion: "High school mathematics question? Li Xiaohei, hehe, this name is well chosen. It is similar to
I'm almost."
Bai Xiaobai rolled his eyes: "Look, how many points can you get on this test paper?"
"What happened to you today?"
Principal Bai glanced at Bai Xiaobai suspiciously and subconsciously said: "Pen."
Bai Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, then turned around to find a pen, but when she came over with the pen, she found that the old man had already put the test paper on the coffee table.
"Dad, let's grade the papers."
Bai Xiaobai frowned.
"What catches your eyes?"
Principal Bai said angrily: "Are you looking for a high school test paper to tease me? I have already read it and wrote ten fill-in-the-blank questions. All of them are correct, fifty points, and the other answers are not written at all."
Bai Xiaobai was all excited. He picked up the test paper and looked at it carefully.
A whole handwritten test paper, from beginning to end, with all the answers written on it.
But my father said...
He took the test paper and almost slapped the answers to the last big questions in his father's face: "Dad, are you saying that this question was not written?"
"I'm not blind. Isn't this obvious? Can you tell me what's written on it? The Wordless Book of Heaven?"
"But...but..."
Bai Xiaobai only felt that this scene revealed an indescribable absurdity. The answers were clearly written, and the handwriting was neat and clear, and they were all correct.
Why can I see it myself and why can’t my father see it?
Unwilling to give up, she found her mother again with the test paper. As a result, in her mother's eyes, this test paper also only had ten multiple-choice questions.
What Li Xiaohei said is true.
He didn't lie.
He filled up the test paper, but all others could see were these few multiple-choice questions.
But why can I see all the answers?
If everyone could see Li Xiaohei’s answers, what would be his college entrance examination score that year?
At least, there won't be any suspense about entering this university.
And Li Xiaohei, who has personally experienced all this, went from confusion to pain to discovering the truth. How desperate was he in the end? How numb is he now?
Bai Xiaobai ran back downstairs like crazy.
Li Xiaohei hasn't left yet. He is sitting in the restaurant, eating pig ears bit by bit.
"The test paper...I showed it to my parents."
Bai Xiaobai looked at Li Xiaohei. There was no pity in her eyes, only a sense of absurdity and distress: "They can only see multiple-choice questions..."
"So, after discovering the truth, I knew that this would probably be the case in my life. I would accomplish nothing. No matter how hard I tried, I would always be like this. This is my destiny."
Li Xiaohei said calmly, his tone was not open-minded, but numb and powerless after seeing everything.
"not like this."
Bai Xiaobai slowly shook his head: "I don't believe in fate. There must be a reason. I can see it. I can see your perfect score paper. This shows that even if there is really a so-called destiny, it is not all
There is no flaw, don’t you want to resist?”
"I think so."
Li Xiaohei sighed and laughed: "But, how can I resist?"
Bai Xiaobai suddenly reached out and grabbed Li Xiaohei's palm.
"I'll help you!"
The woman's voice was calm and firm, and her eyes were as bright as stars.
outside the city.
Mountain top.
Li Tianlan, whose whole body was completely surrounded by pure light, suddenly withdrew his gaze and looked at Qin Weibai standing in front of him.
Qin Weibai squinted her eyes. Her eyes were still cold, but there was a hint of doubt.
"Do you want to die?"
Li Tianlan looked at Qin Weibai coldly, his eyes full of resentment and hatred. He just stared at her and said word by word: "You really deserve to die!"
