IJWTRQ Chapter 052

Continuing Reality (7)

After the meeting, several people went back to school together. It was already eight o’clock in the morning, and everyone still had classes. For the past two days, Qiao Zhixue asked for leave for them, which counted as attendance, but they still had to make up for the classes they missed.

Cui Heyu Liang Xian don’t need to make up at all, they had long learned it by themselves. Yan Yongfeng and Qiu Qizheng are the hard-working types with a solid foundation. It is not difficult to miss two days of class. Ke Hao helped them take notes, and recorded the more important classes, and they could make up for it in a day or two.

Tan Yan doesn’t understand at all, he hasn’t learned this far. He’s still learning about high school knowledge. It doesn’t matter whether he listens or not, it’s useless to worry.

The most miserable is Qin Li, who was originally in the supernatural team by luck (‘the void is directly behind him’), theoretical grades are at the bottom of the class, and then missing two days of class, it’s very difficult to make up.

Fortunately, Cui Heyu was relatively free, he no longer has to go into the ‘void’ again, and Minister Yu has temporarily banned his computer, so he couldn’t practice his abilities at all, so he agreed to give Qin Li a make-up lesson.

“You have to fight well for me in the other world,” Cui Heyu said unhappily, “I can only stay in the real world from now on.”

“You help us watch the house.” Qiu Qizheng comforted.

“Um, when you’re triumphant, I will say ‘Welcome home’.” Cui Heyu thought about that scene and felt a little better.

Several people just came back from the other world, and they were woken up by the little deer’s brutal bite before they fully recovered, then they spent half a night meeting too, and their scientific outlook also went through baptism, they couldn’t rest when they returned to school, picked up their books and went to class, each of their eye circles are all black, and keep dozing off in the classroom.

Only Tan Yan is still full of energy, taking notes seriously. He couldn’t understand a single word in today’s calculus class, but it doesn’t matter, clumsy birds have to start flying early1笨鳥先飛 bèn niǎo xiān fēi: clumsy birds have to start flying early–the slow need to start early (usually said in self-depreciation)., he wrote down everything the teacher said, so he can read it when he learns this.

Liang Xian sat next to Tan Yan. After falling asleep on the table, he rested his head on his arms, opened his hazy eyes, and looked sideways at Tan Yan who was seriously taking notes.

A young face, focused eyes, slender fingers…

Even though he knows that this man is 58 years old, 8 years older than his father, but Liang Xian still can’t help but be fascinated by Tan Yan.

Nevertheless, his skin is too good, right?

If one day, Tan Yan becomes old immediately, can he still like him?

Things haven’t happened yet, Liang Xian doesn’t know. It is said that there is a three-year generation gap, and forty years is no longer a generation gap, but a chasm. His first love seemed to have no future at all. Tan Yan is a straight man who sleeps together at night without even noticing it. And now, the originally only hazy heartbeat is now blocked by the natural moat of age and experience. Does his pitiful feelings really just end in vain like this?

Liang Xian wants to work harder, but what can he work on? Is it working harder to grow old?

While thinking, he concentrated on looking at Tan Yan. In the end, he was obsessed with his serious expression.

Liang Xian learned calculus by himself when he was in junior high school. To him, what the teacher is talking about now is just child play. Tan Yan can listen to such a simple and boring thing so seriously. It’s really… a little cute.

Liang Xian thought for a moment, what kind of personality would Tan Yan have if he was the same age as him?

His grades will definitely not be too bad. He is dedicated to learning and will work hard to overcome even the most difficult subjects. The reason why he can’t catch up now is because they have studied for twelve years, and Tan Yan is forty years behind them. It will take time to make up for the gap of so many years.

And if they study together from the beginning, Tan Yan’s grades should be similar to Qiu Qizheng’s. Although they are not top-notch, but will definitely not be one-sided.

Physical fitness must be the best in the class, whether it is endurance or overall strength, no one can match him.

In terms of moral character, Tan Yan will definitely respect teachers, unite with classmates, and enthusiastically help every student who encounters difficulties. When Tan Yan was in elementary school, the red scarf2紅領巾 hónglǐngjīn: red scarves, worn by Young Pioneers, consist of children between the ages of six and fourteen. The Young Pioneers Constitution explains that the scarf corresponds to the missing triangle on the Pioneer Company flag. The Constitution also explains that the red of the scarf comes from the blood sacrificed by martyrs of the Revolution, and that all members should therefore wear the scarf with reverence. around his neck must be bright red, like a national flag.

He must be a three-good student with a well-rounded development of morality, intelligence, physical education, social and aesthetic development, an outstanding member of CYLC3優秀團員 yōuxiù tuányuán: actually didn’t specify which organization, but the most likely is CYLC, because upon reaching the age of fourteen, Young Pioneers (those wearing red scarves) automatically exit the Young Pioneers and may go on to join the Communist Youth League of China., a team leader, and even the student council president, and every student trusts him.

As for himself, he probably would not like Tan Yan at the beginning. Liang Xian understands his own character. He has a deep-seated aversion to the kind of leadership of the minister. Minister Yu loves the country, the people, and the society, but he doesn’t love his family. Minister Yu has always given up his family to take care of everyone, and Liang Xian will always be the one who was abandoned.

So he would agree with Tan Yan’s point of view, while hating him, and would always be mocking4冷嘲熱諷 lěng cháo rè fěng: frigid irony and scorching satire; to mock and ridicule. Tan Yan, that Tan Yan would definitely not be as knowledgeable as him, no matter how provocative Liang Xian was, Tan Yan would just laugh it off.

This man’s heart will never hold such a trivial matter.

They have to study and train together for more than ten years. More than ten years ago, they must have had the opportunity to get along day and night. Tan Yan will carefully notice every need of Liang Xian, will help him, take care of him, and will not abandon him even in danger.

Tan Yan would stretch out his hands to him who was exhausted, would carry him who has a sprained foot on his back, and would stay up all night to take care of him who was sick.

These kinds of things, Minister Yu has never done it, Liang Xian is also a person who is strong to survive by himself.

But Tan Yan will not let go of him, even if he knows that Tan Yan treats everyone in the class like this, but Liang Xian knows that he will still be attracted to him, from dislike to dependence, to falling in love.

Even in different circumstances, he will still be attracted to this person.

Thinking of this, Liang Xian grabbed Tan Yan’s arm as if it were the doings of ghosts and gods, and Tan Yan who was startled looked up at him, Liang Xian said: “I…”

He didn’t even know what to say, he just instinctively wanted to catch his first love that was flying away.

At this time, the class bell rang, and the university teacher would not delay the class. He immediately ended the class, and the rest of the content continued in the next class.

Tan Yan breathed a sigh of relief, he wrote down all the notes.

The bell interrupted Liang Xian’s train of thought, he froze and said: “I’d better help you with tutoring, your progress is slower this way.”

“Don’t you still have to study?” Tan Yan whispered, “Your that is different from ours, you need to add more knowledge, right?”

‘That’ refers to abilities, walls have ears, and Tan Yan is still very cautious.

“It’s okay,” Liang Xian shook his head and said, “I know the structure of some emergency items, and I also know the structure of many hazardous materials. But the strength is not enough, no matter how much knowledge, it is useless. At this stage, I still focus on improving my strength. This can only be practiced under the guidance of Professor Qiao at night. I usually have plenty of time. And you don’t listen to my lectures all the time, when you do the questions, I can read the book.”

In short, we must study together.

“So it’s like this,” Tan Yan said embarrassedly, “Really trouble you.”

“Between you and me, don’t talk about trouble.” Liang Xian grabbed Tan Yan’s hand, stared at him, and said, “We live and die together, you use the word ‘trouble’, I will be sad.”

“It’s me thinking too much,” Tan Yan understood what he meant, “You’re such a good child.”

Liang Xian: “…”

“If you call me a child again, I’ll get angry!” Liang Xian pretended to be angry.

“Okay, okay, okay, Liang Laoshi, hahahahaha…” Tan Yan laughed heartily.

He is gradually become different from the silent and introverted man at the beginning. In essence, Tan Yan is a very charismatic person. When he came to university, he got in touch with young people deeply, and Tan Yan also showed his own personality.

Hearing the words ‘Liang Laoshi’, Liang Xian felt numb from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head, followed by a heart full of sourness. He wanted to laugh, but tried hard to control it, only pulling the corners of his mouth, pretending to be majestic, and said: “Um, in the future, when studying, call me Liang Laoshi.”

As they were talking, Ke Hao came over and said to Qiu Qizheng and others: “Squad leader, how do I feel like I haven’t seen you for a long time? Since you joined that interest group, we are not together in the dormitory anymore, every day you were absent-minded, and the day before yesterday, you also took leave and say that… it’s to participate in the outdoor activities of the interest group. Why do you go outdoors with a quantum mechanics interest group? Shouldn’t you do interesting experiments in the lab?”

But they did practice outdoors, and not only ‘outdoors’, but even ‘outside the earth’, ‘outside the universe’, and ‘outside the world’.

They are all good brothers who grew up wearing the same pair of trousers. Everyone is unwilling to deceive Ke Hao, so they can only keep silent with dark circles under their eyes.

“Your mental state…” Ke Hao looked puzzled, “Squad leader, you never sleep in class, just now I saw you doze off several times, even if you haven’t sleep for three days and nights, it won’t be like this, right?”

Although had slept, but still more tired than not sleeping for seven days, even now still have tinnitus…

Ke Hao is also very pitiful. He asked a few questions in succession, but everyone was silent. The friends who came to play with Qiu Qizheng couldn’t stand it any longer.

“Take two days off at the end of this month, or organize the whole class to visit the Great Wall. After the military training, our class hasn’t had group activities yet.” Ke Hao continued to suggest that Qiu Qizheng, the squad leader, should take the lead in this matter.

Since the special class was promoted to university, as long as there is no special event, the last weekend of each month will have rest for two days, the usual weekend is a training day. Compared to ordinary universities, it is very hard work, but for students in special classes, two days off is really a lot. They didn’t even have two days in high school, and had to train during winter and summer vacations.

End of the month, the Great Wall…

Qiu Qizheng could only answer: “Let’s talk about it when the time comes.”

Who knows if they will encounter a void in the two days off, and whether they can come back, Qiu Qizheng dare not directly agree.

Ke Hao was disappointed: “Squad leader, I feel like I’m not in the same world as you anymore.”
Indeed, not anymore.

At this moment, Qiu Qizheng was thinking more about Tan Yan rather than Ke Hao.

They have just entered the other world once, and they feel far away from their former friends, and he feels very uncomfortable and lonely about this feeling. But fortunately, he still has companions to talk to, and Professor Qiao and Minister Yu have prepared a psychiatrist for them to talk to at any time.

But how did Tan Yan manage to stay away from the ordinary world for forty years by himself?

If he was asked, he will probably just say ‘Get used to it’, right?

How much bitterness and loneliness are revealed in these light words.

“Rats,” Qiu Qizheng said, “I’m not sure if I can go now, can we make an appointment again on the weekend morning? I also really want to visit the Great Wall, even if I have been there before, I still want to go again.”

Thank them for their life-saving grace.

“Okay!” Hearing what Qiu Qizheng said, Ke Hao was very happy, and he asked cautiously, “Squad leader, may I know where you were two days ago?”

“Interest group outdoor experiment, that’s all,” Qiu Qizheng said simply, “You… maybe one day, you’ll join in too.”

He didn’t persuade Ke Hao to study hard and join the interest group, the different world is not a joke.

Qiu Qizheng himself is willing to risk his life for the fantasy world, but he cannot persuade others to sacrifice theirs.

If one day the situation is really serious enough to require a large number of supernatural beings, Qiu Qizheng will do his best to help Ke Hao become a first-class supernatural being, but not now, let him enjoy an ordinary but safe life.

I’m here to protect you. Looking at the classmates in the class, Qiu Qizheng suddenly had this thought in his mind.

He felt a warmth in his chest, power flowing from his heart into his blood, and all the loneliness he felt earlier was dispelled.

“You’re like this too, right?” After returning to the dormitory, Qiu Qizheng suddenly asked.

“Um?” Tan Yan, who raised his head from the sea of questions, was at a loss.

Qiu Qizheng touches his heart: “Actually very scared, lonely, and want to live a normal life. No matter how strong the ability is, it is not as important as life, wanting to give up. But when seeing the classmates, teachers… to you are colleagues and the people of Ping County, it will be warm here, and will not be afraid at all.”

Tan Yan smiled: “Yes.”

He knows, Qiu Qizheng understands.

It’s not someone telling him you have to sacrifice for the safety of the race; It’s not that the country pushed him and forced him to die. No one likes pain, everyone wants to hide in a safe place. But there is always someone who has to stand up and block the wind and rain for the people behind.

Don’t think that you are the only one who is enduring the wind and rain. Your strength and courage to stand on the cusp of the storm will always be given to you by the people behind you.

On this day, everyone seems to be a little different. Everyone has their own views on guarding.
Tan Yan’s past has touched them, and gradually merged into everyone’s hearts little by little. A few short lines of a brief resume are not boring information for them, but sentence after sentence of life lessons.

By the end of the night, everyone realized that they really couldn’t seem to see Tan Yan as a person of the same age.

Only Liang Xian climbed onto Tan Yan’s bed tenaciously, with a fearless expression on his face.

Cui Heyu, who guessed Liang Xian’s mind: “…”

“Didn’t you share the same bed with Tan Yan because you were afraid of being discovered by us by accidentally using your powers after falling asleep?” Cui Heyu asked, “Everyone knows this, why are you still climbing?”

“I’m afraid that my power is too strong and hurt you.” Liang Xian glared at him.

“Then I ask for a hug too,” Yan Yongfeng laughed and said, “What if I accidentally pulled out that forty-meter-long broadsword at night?”

In fact, they are well aware that their powers have been stabilized, and their subconscious minds don’t want to be exposed, so they will not accidentally use their abilities while sleeping.

“It’s not that,” Tan Yan explained, “Classmate Liang Xian is flustered after going to another world. I understand this feeling, why not sleep with him?”

Everyone: “…”

Only you believe him!

Cui Heyu couldn’t get used to Liang Xian’s is probably from the genes. He thought about it and showed a malicious smile: “Eh? You said, when the new team members come, they will also awaken their abilities. Do you want to tell the newcomers Tan Yan’s real age?”

Liang Xian: “…”

Cui Heyu will definitely feel uncomfortable if he doesn’t stimulate him.

Unexpectedly, everyone said in unison: “Of course not!”

Tan Yan: “…Why? Didn’t Minister Yu say that if they are trustworthy, it can be disclosed in order to educate them and set an example?”

Qin Li: “Talk about that later.”

Yan Yongfeng: “The bitterness we have suffered, we must let them suffer too.”

Qiu Qizheng: “You’d better act younger in front of the newcomers, don’t say such things like children, but it’s still okay to call the little deer son.”

Cui Heyu: “We will report to the organization tomorrow to keep Comrade Tan Yan’s age secret to the end. This is the baptism that every newcomer should receive!”

Yan Yongfeng: “This is a good idea, I like it.”

Tan Yan: “…”

What happened to these children, one by one, became very strange.

Originally thought it was just a joke, but never thought that when the interest group was studying the next night, they really handed in the application report, and even Assistant Teacher Chai wrote it! Don’t even know when they communicated it.

Qiao Zhixue read through all the applications and sighed: “This kind of matter has always been handled by Xu Mingyu, even these trivial matters are entrusted to me, are you trying to exhaust me to death?”

“But Officer Xu…” Assistant Teacher Chai looks embarrassed.

Xu Mingyu doesn’t have the excellent healing ability of supernatural beings. He is still lying in the hospital, unable to eat, and relying on injections of nutrient solution to maintain his body functions. It’s also very pitiful, how dare Ah San hand over the request to him?

The little deer, who was brought along by Qiao Zhixue for training twitched his ears and lowered his head in shame.

That night, everyone was training together in the training hall based on their respective abilities. Cui Heyu had nothing to do, could only help everyone record the data, and occasionally came up with strange suggestions to provide ideas for the training.

The next night, Qiao Zhixue brought back Minister Yu’s response to several people’s requests and two students from the interest group.

Minister Yu’s reply is ‘I have read it, yes, and Comrade Tan Yan will handle it according to the circumstances’, which is simple and clear. In front of the two new classmates, everyone stared at Tan Yan, with a look of ‘If you dare to say, we will bite’.

Tan Yan: “…”

Really didn’t expect his age would cause so much damage to everyone, but he couldn’t help it…

The two new students are named Feng Wu and Hong Liren, they are in their second and third year respectively, and they seem to have a good relationship.

They didn’t know what kind of organization they were going to join yet, but they are still very happy to be selected to perform a mysterious mission because of their excellence, and they introduced themselves enthusiastically.

But the first-year students were very rude, and none of them responded to them, including Assistant Teacher Chai, everyone stared at the student named Tan Yan.

Feng Wu and Hong Liren, two senior students, inexplicably find themselves isolated by their juniors!

Liang Xian is really tenacious, but only Tan Yan didn’t see his intention. 😅

Tan Yan’s age really give the supernatural member a hard blow…
