Doomsday Wonderland

23rd sea area

Lin Sanjiu had been in the apocalyptic world for a long time and had seen too much absurdity and cruelty, so for a short while, her heart tightened and she was ready to close her eyes at any time.

But in a normally functioning human society, a pair of decent, sane, middle-class parents are prepared to educate their biological child who skips school... According to common sense, of course there will be no cruel punishment beyond imagination.

When she realized this, she and Young Man Silla both breathed a sigh of relief.

At noon on weekdays, a small cinema near a residential area seemed to be in a state of half-dream and half-awake; between its heavy eyelids that slowly opened and closed, the light of a tired movie leaked out.

The audience that bought tickets to enter was sparse and scattered, entering the dark cinema aisle, each melting into different screening rooms, becoming a little ripple in the cinema's sleep.

Fusiro is very familiar with the lonely smell of this theater during the day.

The carpet was always damp and probably as old as he was; the ventilation system hummed with dusty air, and the ghosts of stale popcorn and hot dogs lingered thickly in the screening room.

If "old" had a description, it would be the smell in his nose now.

In the past, Fusiro would relax in anticipation every time he walked into the stale atmosphere of the theater; today, he didn't know what to wait for - today was Tuesday, after being caught playing truant, why wasn't he arrested? Send him back to school, but back to the theater?

"Is this what you were looking at just now," my father said in a deep voice. "..."Legend of the Fantasy Sea"?"

It's not a movie that children can't watch; Fusiro knew that the mistake he made was just not going to school but coming to watch a movie instead.

However, his father's reaction was like a huge and unreasonable mystery. He tried desperately to decipher it, but he always felt that his feet could not touch the ground. Usually, his father had very little time at home; today, since he was called home from the company by his mother, , my father hadn’t even looked at Fu Xiro once, and even the taunts and scoldings fell on his head in the air.

"You think these places outside of school are interesting, don't you?" The father sneered and said, "Okay, work pressure is nothing, perfect attendance bonus is nothing, no matter how hard your mother and I work, it doesn't matter in your eyes. Then I will go out of my way to take a day off, so your mother doesn’t have to do anything else, and we will take you to visit all these places."

When his father handed the money to the window and bought three tickets, Fu Xiro's heart skipped a beat, but even he didn't understand why.

He had been looking forward to "Legend of the Fantasy Sea" for a long time, but sitting between his parents, with his face illuminated by the light during the play, Fusiro was at a loss and didn't know whether he was happy or nervous.

"How ridiculous,"

Only a few minutes into the movie, my father spoke.

"A young man who has just graduated from college and has not yet found a job, do you think he can live in a clean and well-equipped house like the one in the movie? The way to show the protagonist's lack of money is to let him choose a cheap lunch Sandwich set? Let me tell you, if it were my tenant who was one week behind on rent, I would bring someone to the door to change the locks and throw all his things out. Do you think that in this society, everyone is incompetent no matter how incompetent they are? The protagonist who is favored by God? If you have no ability, who are you? You are nothing."

There were only the three of them in the entire theater, and a couple in the distant front row; even if my father spoke at a normal volume, no one would stop him.

"Only by studying and getting admitted to a good university can a person become a useful person. So you ignore your business and watch this kind of third-rate movie? Do you think it's good? Of course you think it's good. The more you don't use it, the slower your brain becomes. , even if you are a little clever, you will be turned into an idiot, and idiots think everything is good."

His mother glanced at him disapprovingly, and his father seemed to feel that he had made a mistake. He snorted and said, "Of course, you are my son. You are not that stupid."

The protagonist, who works part-time at the dock, accidentally boarded a mysterious ship and entered a sea area that was not on the map. His father laughed.

"Let me see who the screenwriter is... Ha, this person's major is screenwriting. No wonder he doesn't understand society at all. He only learns how to make things up. Is there any area in the world that has not been discovered by humans? Magic? Do you know that there is magic in the world after you have been eleven years old? I have never seen magic in my forty-three years, why don’t you show me one?"

Although he was only wearing a thin shirt, Fusiro's whole body was feeling hot; he couldn't even pay attention to the progress of the movie's plot, because no matter what plot he acted, his first reaction was to worry about his father's comments - he Turning his head, he glanced at his mother for help.

"This movie is so boring," my mother said with a cold face. "Only people who have accomplished nothing in real life would choose to get pleasure from such daydreams."

Fu Xiluo clasped his hands tightly together and lowered his eyelashes.

"Look, the movie wasn't even shot at sea." The father took out his mobile phone and held the search results in front of Fusiro's eyes, blocking part of the screen. "The storm created by computer special effects... you know it's fake? Since you know it's fake, why are you still willing to be deceived? Don't you think you're ridiculous?"

He took back his phone and said, "You don't even understand how to create computer special effects of a storm, and you still think you're good for not studying."

Fusiro doesn't even remember much of the movie's ending, although he keeps trying to keep his eyes on the screen, hoping that the movie's storyline will drown out his parents' voices.

When the movie finally ended, he couldn't stand up for a while - it seemed like it took a lot of effort to stand up, and he had to save up his strength to do such a difficult and difficult task.

"Tell me about it," his mother didn't urge him. She stood in the aisle and asked, "Why do you want to spend your time on such meaningless things?"

The only two other spectators in the theater looked back at Fusiro several times as they walked out of the aisle.

Fu Xiluo said nothing, hoping they would go faster.

"Your mother is asking you something," his father pushed his shoulder.

"Because I want to go to a world like that!" Fu Xiluo raised his head suddenly, his voice trembling slightly from the impact of emotions that he couldn't even distinguish. "I don't want to continue living in this home. Why can't I do what I like and go to the place I like!"

"Ha, I don't want to go to work or support you yet," the father smiled. "You can go if you can. I'll wait to see when you can find a sea that's not on the map. You're not a child anymore. I told you You, you can’t do whatever you want in life, you just have to follow the rules and do what you should do... Everyone is like this, just let me endure it. And you like it, your brain is not fully developed, what do you like or dislike? "

Originally, Fu Xiro thought that it was over after the movie was over, and he could finally leave the theater. But he didn't expect that he would be dragged straight into the hall by his father.

"Get your manager," my father said to the popcorn vendor.

"You used to sell tickets to unaccompanied children without authorization. What are you talking about?" When the manager appeared, his voice rose several degrees, causing people at the other end of the hall to turn their heads and look at them. The father pulled Fushiro and asked the manager to take a good look at his son's face, and said: "From now on, if you let him watch a movie again, I will definitely hold you accountable!"

The mother seemed to have noticed what he was going to do next, as if she wanted to stop him. Just after she called softly, the father suddenly took out his mobile phone, and with a "click", he took a picture of Fu Xiro's face that he had not been able to avoid.

"Show it for your employees," he passed the photo to the manager and said, "Let them all get to know each other!"

Next, the family of three went to the bookstores, video game arcades, and parks that Luoping usually visited in Fuxi. The same thing happened again. Afterwards, the shop owners, managers or staff of each place also saw clearly. Fu Silla's face.

"Forget about the photos," my mother said softly.

"Why, you weren't afraid of being embarrassed when you skipped school, but now you are afraid of being embarrassed?" The father snorted, looked at Fu Xiro's expression, and hesitated for a moment. His mother saw the opportunity and tried to persuade him a few more times, but he never took out his cell phone again.

When they finally returned home, it was already dark. Even though all three of them were exhausted, her mother still strictly followed the nutritional requirements for children during their development and prepared dinner for Fusiro; she and her father just had a casual takeout meal.

After brushing his teeth hastily, Fusiro returned to the room and rolled himself into the quilt silently, unable to wait for the day to end.

Mother opened the door and asked, "Are you awake? Can I turn on the light?"

Before Fusilla could answer, the lights were already on.

He closed his eyes tightly and thought of his good friends in school who would sometimes complain to him about being beaten by their parents. At that time, it sounded like being thrown across the back by an adult with a mop pole. It was a terrible thing, but fortunately his mother was ashamed of violence, set rules at home, and never laid a finger on him.

Now Fushiro thought, it would be better to give him a beating. After all, it would be over.

"You are a smart child. You can do well in the exams without studying elementary school courses."

His mother sat by the bed, took out the book from the cabinet beside his bed, and flipped through it. "But you will be going to middle school soon... Do you think you can continue to get along with your cleverness in the future? Things other than studying are of course important, but it also depends on what they are. We will send you to summer camps, workshops, cello How much did we spend on classes, ski competitions, overseas study tours? Did we complain? Because these are all useful things."

She twisted the corner of the book with her fingertips, shook it up and down, and asked: "But what's the use of this? A child found the way to the devil in the closet... What did you gain after reading it? Nothing. UU Reading www.uukaｎshu.netｔ Look for nothing. Is it stupid not to go to school for these things? A smart child like you, of course, knows that these are all fake, and there is no other world at all. "

Fu Xilao had originally made up her mind not to say a word, but at this moment she said out of nowhere: "Yes."

"No," the mother said coldly, "If there is, where is it?"

"I don't know." Fushiro whispered, "But there is."

"You don't even know, how can you be sure there is one?"

He couldn't answer for a moment, and his mother sneered from her nose, a smile that showed victory and compassion.

"Think carefully about what is meaningful," she patted Fushiro on the shoulder, got up and left, taking the book away as well.

Fu Xiluo lay in the darkness, looking out the window at the starry sky for a long time.

He has already completed some junior high school courses in advance and knows that there is no alien society outside the stars in the sky. Even on the other side of the bright starlight, perhaps even the original celestial body does not exist.

He didn't even remember the content of "Legend of the Fantasy Sea". Now that he thought about it, there seemed to be no point in reading it. If you don't look at it, there seems to be no point in taking some lessons that you have already learned, but will never be able to finish, and will never be used.

...My parents were probably right about one thing. There is no mysterious sea in the world that has not been discovered by humans.

There is always a vague smell like a pet shop in my study... This is the main activity place for my two cats. The cat food and water bowls are all in the study. I wonder if someone vomited in a certain corner. But no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find the source of the stench... I just wanted to tear down the house.

ps: Looking at it this way, Fu Xiro turns out to be from Yazhou (bushi
