Chapter 35
byChapter 35
The location of this beach is actually not far from Luo Ran's home.
Just go through the straight main road, then make two right-angled turns that are not complicated at all, and turn in at the third traffic light.
Less than fifteen minutes away.
In the original plot, Luo Ran was bewitched by Wen Er's words and took the mobile phone handed over by Wen Er.
The "parents" on the phone sentenced him.
Luo Ran had a high fever and a severe headache, and was carried into the car by Wen Er.He refused to sleep and repeatedly asked Wen You whether he had not distracted his parents yet or whether his parents were not so disappointed in him.
Wen Er didn't answer, just looked at Luo Ran and sighed softly.
Luo Ran felt groggy as he looked at him, feeling as if a part of him had been thrown under the bus, or as if he had fallen into the dazzling aurora earlier.
Luo Ran couldn't find them, and he didn't want to look for them anymore.
Wen'er's villa is far away from the beach, and it takes more than an hour to drive.Luo Ran huddled in the back seat, feeling extremely cold, and hid in the quiet darkness covered by his clothes.
He was soaked in cold tears until he gradually fainted, and he never thought that he could return to the home he could go back to in just fifteen minutes.
…
"I don't blame you." Yu Tang said.
"He hid a lot of things from you, and he hid a lot of things from your parents. He used tricks to separate you from your family."
Yu Tang: "He also told your parents that detecting electronic storms is dangerous, and you will be distracted by their greetings and visits."
The system has become accustomed to the host's prenatal education on the red particle mist, and it floats to the side in an orderly manner, holding the stereo speaker and trying hard to match the BGM.
"..." Yu Tang turned off the system's small speaker: "Luo Ran."
The particle mist remained motionless, leaning against the pendant quietly without any reaction to his words.
"If you have no objection, I will borrow your particles first."
Yu Tang gave up communicating, held up his knees, and stood up from the ditch: "This big old motorcycle is too difficult to ride."
Less than fifteen minutes away.
On a straight main road with two uncomplicated right-angled turns, Yu Tang had already driven this cool all-terrain motorcycle over three times, and successfully fell into the drainage ditch together with the person and the vehicle.
Yu Tang completely lost his enthusiasm and patience in learning new driving tools, returned to the sea of consciousness, and turned on the light screen.
The system was startled by him: "Host, can I also borrow particles?"
"Yes." Yu Tang said, "Otherwise, how did the original cards come from?"
The system had never thought about this problem, and looked at his actions with the little red light flashing in astonishment.
This time, Yu Tang did not rely on countless intersecting rays of light to create skill cards as before.
Those rays of light were completely extracted from the light red particle mist, and formed automatically in an instant. Without Yu Tang's adjustment, they had converged into a translucent card.
The system watched Yu Tang's operation intently, and the screen suddenly lit up: "Host! A very weak fluctuation was just detected, it's——"
Yu Tang: "Shh."
The system was stunned.
Yu Tang blinked at it, imported the improvised card, and raised the motorcycle again.
Five minutes later, the cool all-terrain motorcycle stopped steadily at the door of Luo's house.
Father Luo and Mother Luo were just about to go out.
They were about to rest when they suddenly received a text message from their son. After the excitement passed, they began to feel uneasy.
Luo Ran almost never sends text messages to them.
When Luo Ran was a child, he loved calling them the most.The only way to call the laboratory was through a dedicated phone line. Xiao Luo Ran looked at the shift schedule and counted it with his fingers eagerly.
After finally waiting for them to finish the experiment, the closed-circuit phone immediately jumped up with excitement every second.
Father Luo likes to answer the phone in front of his colleagues. He has been elegant and calm for most of his life. When he answers the phone, he speaks more clearly than usual. After hanging up the phone, he smiles and sighs, complaining half-truthfully that his son talks too much.many.
Their colleagues in the scientific research institute all know that the children of the Luo family are smart and obedient. Although they did not know how to calculate calculus until they graduated from elementary school, they learned to ride a motorcycle in five minutes, and after only half a month of practice, they were able to participate in the youth group.Cross Country Championship.
When Luo Ran was admitted to college and became a "storm chaser" that they had never heard of, the photos taken by Luo Ran were replaced under the glass plate of Luo's father's desk.
... Later, Luo Ran entered the General Research Institute, and the phone calls became less and less.
Father Luo and Mother Luo also understand.
They met the young person in charge of the General Scientific Research Institute named Wen. The person in charge told them that Luo Ran's work was very important and dangerous, and they must ensure complete concentration.
Father Luo and Mother Luo were afraid of disturbing their son, so they asked the person in charge for their son's email address. They missed their son so much that they sent an email.
Luo Ran has been shy since he was a child. He has never been embarrassed to say that he misses his parents and wants to go home. He would get angry if others tease him. He doesn't often reply to emails, let alone send text messages to them.
Not to mention...it is still such a beautifully worded, sincere, and well-narrated text message.
Father Luo and Mother Luo became more and more worried about their son's Chinese language test, which he had failed since he was a child. They got up overnight, got dressed, and planned to go to the General Scientific Research Institute.
"Talk less and don't cause trouble for your son."
Father Luo stood at the door and whispered to Mother Luo: "See your son once and leave when you see that he is fine."
Mother Luo handed over the umbrella, stretched out her hand, and carefully arranged her husband's collar: "I want to ask a few more questions this time. When I came back last time, I always felt that the person in charge was a bit awkward."
Father Luo thought for a while: "Director Wen?"
"I have talked with him. Director Wen has a very solid scientific research foundation. He is at a first-rate level in his main research field. He also takes good care of Xiaoran at work."
Father Luo was puzzled: "What's so strange?"
Mother Luo couldn't tell what was strange. She shook her head and didn't think about it any more. She was about to urge Father Luo to call a taxi when she suddenly heard the familiar deafening roar of a motorcycle.
The arrogant red motorcycle rushed out of the rain curtain, drew a circle in front of their house, and stopped steadily.
Mother Luo's eyes lit up uncontrollably: "...Xiao Ran!"
Father Luo looked up in surprise.
Mother Luo ignored the rain, grabbed the umbrella from Father Luo's hand, and hurried down: "Why did you run back by yourself? It's raining so hard, just let it rain, and I don't know how to find an umbrella with a rain cover..."
Mother Luo held Luo Ran's arm, and her brisk chatter suddenly disappeared.
Mother Luo frowned in disbelief.
She threw down the umbrella and pulled Luo Ran over with all her strength. Through Luo Ran's soaked cold clothes, her free hand moved inch by inch over her son's shoulder, which was so thin that it clearly hurt her hand.
Luo Ran stood firm and forced a smile: "...Mom."
Mother Luo's face could not be darker.
Father Luo had already opened the door and came down happily. However, before he could speak, he was hit hard by his wife and staggered.
Mother Luo said nothing, holding her son's thin and thin wrist, and almost dragged Luo Ran home from the rain.
Luo Ran was thrown into the bathroom.
The bathtub was filled with hot water, and it was instantly filled with hazy and warm steam.
Mother Luo originally wanted to take action directly and take off this brat's clothes to see how far he had tormented her, but Father Luo stopped her in time.
Luo's father also noticed that Luo Ran was abnormally thin, and he was anxious, but he still protected his son and tried his best to persuade his wife: "Don't scare the child..."
Luo's mother was extremely angry. Looking at Luo Ran who was hiding behind Luo's father, obviously frightened, she still didn't have the strength to do anything.
Mother Luo had a cold face and was coaxed away patiently by Father Luo's gentle words.
Luo Ran was covered with a thick and soft bath towel and stuffed back into the bathroom. A small alarm clock was placed next to the bathtub.
Luo's mother left a message and confiscated Luo Ran's big motorcycle if she didn't dare to come out without soaking for half an hour.
…
Yu Tang sat in the bathtub, looking at the mugwort, dried date slices, ginger, orange peels, and the little yellow duck toys that were soaked in the hot water with him, and he was shocked for the first time.
"System." Yu Tang picked up the little yellow duck and pinched it twice. "Is the plot summary wrong?"
The system quickly opened the plot: "What went wrong?"
"Luo Ran's mother." Yu Tang said, "I have seen the character design. She is gentle, intellectual, and good-tempered. She has never blushed with her colleagues."
Obviously not a single word is correct.
Yu Tang was a little worried: "When I get soaked in the smell and go out, will I be spanked?"
The system was stunned: "How could that happen?"
"She was angry."
Yu Tang: "I don't need a data panel to know that her anger level is at least ninety."
"Host, parents will be angry when they see their children being tortured like this."
The system opened the "Human Behavior" tutorial: "This is a kind of parental nature. Parents will naturally protect their children. This kind of anger comes from love and will not turn into a real spanking..."
Yu Tang said: "Really?"
system:"……"
The system flashed a small red light, put away "Research on Human Behavior", and did not continue to speak immediately.
"Shouldn't I ask this?" Yu Tang coughed, smiled, and pressed his forehead, "I understand."
The system whispered: "Host..."
"Our mission must continue." Yu Tang said, "The reason why Luo Ran's parents didn't stop him was because they didn't know Luo Ran's situation, and Luo Ran never let them find out."
Yu Tang reflected: "I was careless this time and did not consider the relevant content of human behavior."
The system carefully interrupted him: "Host."
"According to Luo Ran's mother's current anger level, although it is unlikely... we should first block the signal of Luo Ran's home phone."
Yu Tang said: "We can't let his parents contact Wen Er for the time being."
Yu Tang: "I have to find a reasonable explanation. You can say that I drove a sailboat to explore the sea in the past three months. The boat capsized and I sank... No, this sounds too worrying."
Yu Tang thought carefully: "Try out Luo Ran's hobbies and create a less dangerous but unexpected travel experience. I will use it later."
System: "Okay."
"Give me a copy of Human Behavior, too."
Yu Tang said: "I have time to look through it."
System: "Okay."
Yu Tang stopped talking.
He was quiet for a while, and then asked again in the sea of consciousness: "System."
The system gently rubbed his shoulder: "Host, what's the matter?"
"Is your book "Research on Human Behavior" a pirated copy?" Yu Tang thought for a long time, but he was still worried. "We should be more cautious. If we are going to be beaten when we go out, we should block the pain first..."
"...Host." The system said, "We are Chuan Bookstore."
Yu Tang was confused: "So?"
The system raised a small red flag: "So we do not sell pirated books, read pirated books, or spread pirated books. It is everyone's responsibility to support genuine books and combat piracy."
Yu Tang: "..."
The system assigned a flag to him, unfurled the bold slogan, took out the loudspeaker, and floated uprightly in Yu Tang's sea of consciousness.
Yu Tang was forced to recite it together, waved the little red flag, and couldn't help laughing.
He no longer struggled with things about humans, and completely let his mind go. He picked up a little yellow duck and placed it on top of his head. He closed his eyes and let himself relax and sink into the hot water.
…
Luo Ran stayed in the bathroom for an hour.
Yu Tang accidentally fell asleep. It was rare for him to sleep so deeply that he didn't even hear the alarm clock ring.
Father Luo and Mother Luo didn't wait for anyone, so they came over to take a look worriedly.
Mother Luo opened the door and saw her son, who had fallen asleep and had a tired look on his face, and was frighteningly pale and thin. She couldn't hold back her tears any longer, and she leaned on her husband and cried until she couldn't stand still.
Father Luo moved gently, closed the bathroom door, and helped his wife back to the study.
They were reluctant to wake up Luo Ran, but they were also afraid that Luo Ran was weak and soaking for too long would be bad for his health.Father Luo stared at the stopwatch and waited until the last second of an hour before going to the bathroom and gently waking up Luo Ran.
Luo Ran woke up suddenly, his face couldn't stop turning pale, the plastic little yellow duck on his head also fell off, and he stared at Luo's father in a daze.
Father Luo felt so sour that he picked up the little duck and placed it beside the bathtub.
Luo Ran blinked several times, woke up, and called softly: "Dad."
"How old are you? You still scream like that." Father Luo smiled, but did not correct him. "Wipe it off, come out to eat, and eat well before going to bed."
Luo Ran nodded gently.
Father Luo was speechless and could not say more caring words. He paused for a while before asking again: "Xiaoran, daddy is asking you."
Luo Ran's thin shoulders and back trembled slightly, he subconsciously sat upright and raised his eyes.
Father Luo asked: "Is anyone bullying you?"
Luo Ran was stunned.
He didn't expect Father Luo to ask this. He opened his mouth, but couldn't answer immediately.
"If someone bullies you, you must tell your parents. You must tell them."
Father Luo lowered his gaze. He was not used to such straightforward communication with his son. He was silent for a while before saying again: "Don't look down on Dad."
"I didn't." Luo Ran was so anxious that his voice became hoarse, "I didn't, I -"
"Dad... can only do research." Father Luo said, "I don't know how to ride a motorcycle or quarrel. It was only after having you that I learned how to hit people with a broom, but I couldn't hit them accurately."
Luo Ran's face turned pale because of those words. He gripped the bathtub hard, his arms almost trembling, and looked at Father Luo motionlessly.
Father Luo touched Luo Ran's hair.
He didn't know what difficulties Luo Ran encountered, and he didn't know how Luo Ran became like this - it wasn't until now, until Luo Ran appeared in front of them, until Luo Ran was so tired and weak that he fell asleep in the bathroom, that he suddenlyRealize this.
Luo Ran encountered difficulties and Luo Ran became like this, but they had no idea at all.
They believed in Luo Ran too much. Luo Ran was their pride and the little sunshine of the family. Nothing in this world seemed to be hard for their son.
Father Luo suddenly realized that there was something he had forgotten to tell Luo Ran.
"Don't look down on dad."
Father Luo squatted down, met Luo Ran's gaze, and said to him seriously and slowly: "If you are wronged, Dad will fight to the death."
Luo Ran couldn't move anymore.
He looked at Father Luo, frowning in confusion, and moved his pale lips, trying hard to speak.
But he couldn't say anything. He had been forcibly interfered with too much and could no longer express himself smoothly on such matters.
"No rush, no rush."
Father Luo got closer to his son and squatted beside the bathtub to coax him: "I'll go out in a while. Dad will help you deal with mom. I won't let mom scold you again."
Father Luo explained to Luo Ran: "Mom is too worried about you."
Luo Ran closed his eyes. He had no strength left and leaned softly on the edge of the bathtub, nodding gently.
Father Luo also fell silent.
Both he and Luo's mother grew up in the family courtyard of the Ministry of Science, and lived an ordinary life. They skipped grades step by step, published papers in universities, and were admitted to scientific research institutes. They have been researchers for a lifetime, dealing with formulas and numbers all their lives.
This is the closest thing he can say to his son.
Even these words were just learned by the couple in the study after calling their colleagues to ask questions.Father Luo was afraid of forgetting, so Mother Luo carried her on her back several times.
But what they were thinking was indeed exactly the same as these words.
Luo's father didn't know what else to say. He wanted to help his son get a bath towel, but he happened to hear his cell phone vibrating in the clothes Luo Ran had changed out of.
Father Luo took it over and looked at it.
The note is "Wen Nei".
"It's your Director Wen's phone number." Father Luo helped him get it. "There are three missed calls, also from him. Do you want to answer them?"
