24 hours to save the world

"With all due respect, your son does not have any mental illness."

Outpatient Department of Pingan Hospital in Xicheng District.

After some tests and examinations, doctors came to a conclusion.

Zhu's father, Zhu's mother and Zhu Shiya breathed a sigh of relief, but they also began to wonder if there was something wrong with the test results.

"Doctor, our son has been feeling very wrong since yesterday. After he came back from school, he tricked our whole family into going to the airport. He also said that there would be a big disaster in Jiangcheng and Wucheng at ten o'clock this morning... Are you sure about our son's mental health? Is it really okay?”

The doctor shook his head, glanced at the very quiet young man sitting on a chair not far away, frowned and looked at the report in his hand: "This is the result of the mental evaluation report we got. At most, your son is in a good mood. It’s not good, there may be a slight tendency to depression, but I can’t say it’s persecutory delusion or anything like that.”

Although the young man in front of him said nothing, the atmosphere around him was indeed a bit gloomy. Although it cannot be said that there is no problem at all, it is still a bit exaggerated to say that it is serious enough to require medication, not to mention that his family suspects that he has persecution delusion - pure It's nonsense.

"It can be seen that your son is indeed a little pessimistic about things, but it is not very serious. As a doctor, my suggestion is to go out more often to relax, so that he will feel more relaxed."

"That's it."

The doctor's explanation was somewhat effective, at least Zhu Shijiu was not really locked up as a mentally ill person.

When several people came out of Ping An Hospital, Zhu Shijiu looked up at the sky and saw that the sky was clear and clear.

"Brother..." Zhu Shiya shouted helplessly from the side.

From this sister's point of view, something is really wrong with her brother. She is probably still thinking about the inexplicable "end of the world" in her head.

Zhu Shijiu looked at the time.

"9:52."

It was too late to do anything.

But Zhu Shijiu really didn't want to do anything now. He dialed Li Hua's number in front of his parents and sister.

"I wish you all the best here, brother. How are you doing there?"

"It's not that good. I was sent to the hospital as a mental illness by my family." Zhu Shijiu glanced at his parents and saw embarrassment on their faces.

Zhu Shijiu said calmly: "But it's okay. Fortunately, the test results are normal."

Although they didn't know who Zhu Shijiu was talking to, when the family heard what Zhu Shijiu said, they felt that they were making a fuss out of a molehill.

Zhu Shijiu asked: "Look at the map now, where are you?"

"Ji Province."

"good."

The last moment was approaching, and Zhu Shijiu and Li Hua had nothing to talk about. After asking for their location, Zhu Shijiu did not hang up the phone, but let the time pass slowly.

He has no fear because he has died twice, but he has a lot of sorrow in his heart.

He was sad that he still had a lot of things to do, sad that his family didn't even believe in him as much as his roommates, and even more sad that he was helpless in the face of death.

In the last minute, Zhu Shijiu and his family sat on the bench next to the Ping An Hospital Park, chatting while looking at the scenery.

Zhu Shijiu no longer talks about the apocalypse, and his parents no longer question that he "lied" to them.

—until 10 a.m. sharp.

Familiar blue light, familiar pain.

"Fuck!" Li Hua's shocked voice came from the phone.

Then, the phone call that Li Hua had agreed not to hang up was also blocked, and a "communication ended" screen was displayed on the screen.

Zhu Shijiu smiled bitterly at the phone: "Sorry."

The parents and sister beside him were already shouting and screaming, looking panicked.

"What, what's going on?! My eyes..."

They all seemed to think there was something wrong with their eyes, so that everything they saw was different shades of blue.

"Ahhhhhh, it hurts so much——"

The younger sister reacted faster than her parents. She immediately thought of the disaster her brother said!

He saw his sister looking at him in shock, as if she wanted to ask something, but Zhu Shijiu took the lead and said as if he was joking: "It's not bad to die with my family this time."

This week, he used the lives of Li Hua and his family to get more accurate results.

Just before the phone was forcibly hung up, Li Hua told Zhu Shijiu with a horrified "grass" that it was useless no matter how far he ran away. The blue light still reached the north in an instant, which meant that Li Hua and his family were not spared.

Three consecutive deaths made Zhu Shijiu despair.

When he woke up from the "nightmare" for the fourth time, cold sweat once again soaked the sheets. Zhu Shijiu, whose face was as pale as paper, could not even move a finger.

Originally, under the protection mechanism of the human body, severe pain would cause the brain to forcibly shut down the mind, causing the body to enter a coma first. However, Zhu Shijiu could not even do such a simple instinct, because his body was intact after experiencing the reversal. No damage, the brain's protective mechanism failed to work.

The memory of the whole body being dissolved and collapsed by mysterious energy radiation is deeply engraved in the soul, and every millisecond is clearly memorable. Just recovering from that kind of collapse is not easy.

"Fuck, Brother Zhu, what's wrong with you?"

A familiar voice came from under the bed.

Li Hua's head poked out from the side of the bed's railing. He came here following the sound of Zhu Shijiu's painful whimpering. He was playing the game well, but he didn't expect Zhu Shijiu to scream as if he was on the verge of death, which startled him.

When he saw Zhu Shijiu's frighteningly pale face, Li Hua suddenly changed his expression.

"wish……"

"...don't...don't talk...I'm fine." Zhu Shijiu weakly squeezed out a sentence from his throat.

He really didn't have the energy to speak now. He just wanted to clear his mind and try not to recall the pain.

However, he couldn't do it, and a series of thoughts were still rushing through his head, basically everything that happened before last week's death, which to him was only five minutes ago. The family members' miserable screams, distorted faces, and blank and painful eyes are all still fresh in my memory.

"I'm going to find the medical teacher!"

Li Hua left the dormitory regardless of Zhu Shijiu's stop, leaving Zhu Shijiu lying quietly on the bed alone.

Zhu Shijiu stared at the slightly mottled old ceiling with dull eyes. The air conditioner in the bedroom made a shuddering sound, and the laptop on Li Hua's desk made game sounds from time to time. Everything seemed to tell Zhu Shijiu that this was a peaceful and uneventful daily life.

I don't know how long it took, but there were rapid footsteps in the corridor outside the door, accompanied by Li Hua's shouting and urging.

Zhu Shijiu's head was all groggy. It wasn't until the medical teacher in a white coat crawled to the bedside that he regained some energy.

"... Mild dehydration, heartbeat is a bit rapid... Classmate, have you just done some exercise?"

After the initial observation, the medical teacher asked.

This sign is very similar to the symptoms after strenuous exercise.

"Teacher, he has been staying in the dormitory. He seemed to have had a nightmare just now, and it was like this when he woke up."

"Really? It's really strange." The medical teacher was confused and wanted to do further examination.

But Zhu Shijiu raised his hand to stop the medical teacher: "Teacher, no need to trouble you, I'm fine, my roommate is making too much fuss."

Perhaps because he absorbed vitality in the living environment, Zhu Shijiu's body gradually regained his strength. Although his hands and feet were still a little weak, he was almost fine.

The teacher breathed a sigh of relief: "Young people should still pay attention to their health. I just had a nightmare and that's it. I suggest you go to the hospital for a serious examination. To put it bluntly, I suspect you have heart disease. …”

"Okay, I'll definitely go when I have time."

Zhu Shi Jiuqiang brushed off the medical teacher with a smile.

After the medical teacher left, Zhu Shijiu's forced smile finally collapsed, and his face was filled with a look of defeat and despair.

At this time, Li Hua, who was worried on the sidelines, dared to speak: "Brother Zhu, you scared me. Are you really okay?"

"call……"

Zhu Shi Jiuyang took a long breath and forced himself to cheer up.

After he regained his composure, he looked at Li Hua.

"...Li Hua, listen to me..."
