Lu Mingfei remembered that the bubble boy he saw on the news only lived to be 12 years old. That happened in the 1970s.

The boy's name is David. He was diagnosed with a severe immune system defect when he was born. As soon as he made noise from the placenta, he was immediately sent to a special bubble room.

He once had an older brother who also suffered from this disease and died in July.

His parents knew about this risk when they were pregnant, but their Catholic faith did not allow them to have an abortion. The probability of a newborn suffering from this disease is only about one in 50,000 to one in 100,000, but in this family it is

Fifty percent, because both his parents carry the gene for this disease on their chromosomes.

This is a genetic disease with almost no reliable cure. Even in modern times, few affected fetuses survive beyond two years of age.

David broke this record and lived to be 12 years old, but he lost hope day by day in the closed bubble.

He is aware of the outside world, knows how wonderful the scenery outside is, knows that many people are paying attention to his disease, and sometimes his parents will send him newspapers. Before the age of four, he lived a very free life, but after the age of four

, I gradually became depressed and sad, not only because I couldn’t get out of the bubble, but also because of the strange looks from outsiders.

When he was 12 years old, the doctor told David's family that there might be hope for a cure, because David also had a healthy sister. If his sister's bone marrow was transplanted into David's body, it might be possible to reactivate the immune system and gain immunity.

The same rights as normal people to walk in the park full of sunshine and breeze.

The operation was successful and everything appeared to be normal, so David walked out of the bubble room. However, four months later, he developed lymphoma and died soon after.

The situation of "Master Eriyi" should be very different from this, but her condition does not seem to be as serious as David's. She can still go out to eat occasionally, and there are staff who can enter her room to help.

It is probably a rare disease that requires strict monitoring, so frequent check-ups are needed to prevent unexpected situations from happening.

How did David feel during the last four months?

He should be happy.

But after enjoying a free life, will he still be willing to return to the "bubble"?

Lu Mingfei tried to put himself into that environment. He thought he would never return to that narrow and transparent "bubble". Even if it cost his life, he still wanted to go to the park with the kite string.

Run around all day long, go to the cinema to eat popcorn and watch a movie, give your parents a hug before leaving, say goodbye to your family and friends, and then die with dignity and no regrets, instead of spending every day in an empty bubble room.

Staring outside in a daze.

If you have never seen light, you have never known that you are in darkness.

Perhaps it was with this in mind that the "brother" and "parents" of "Master Eriyi" did not tell her the common sense that normal people should have, but let her immerse herself in her own little world, always like a

The child is as carefree, giving her fewer friends and less sadness when she leaves.

"Alas..." Lu Mingfei let out a long sigh.

He was unable to judge whether the actions of his "brother" and "eldest brother" were correct. As an outsider, he had no right to comment on other people's family affairs.

Besides, the life of the "Master" is pretty good. For example, when she joined QQ last night, she just needed to say a word and there would be a dedicated person to help her solve her difficulties.

The treatment of rare diseases is very expensive because there are few people suffering from the disease, so it cannot take up too many medical resources, and there are not enough cases and experiences for doctors to review.

It's like clearing the land at the highest difficulty level of a game copy. If you don't understand the boss mechanism, the probability of successfully clearing the level for the first time is infinitely close to 0. There is a probability of clearing the level, but it only exists in theory.

But life is not a game. In the game, if you are killed by the boss, you can come back again. In reality, if the treatment fails, it is impossible to resurrect someone and give you another try, right?

Lu Mingfei could not understand the behavior of the "Master's" family.

As a netizen, all you can do is chat with the "master" and play games.

So Lu Mingfei stopped educating Hui Liyi and opened the chat history with Chen Wenwen. He found some jokes and emoticons that he had found online in the past and sent them to make her happy.

Eriyi's attention was soon diverted.

"Hahaha, Sakura is so interesting." Eriyi sent a panda smiley face.

The time came to 1:30 a.m. US time, and it was another day of staying up late.

The same emoticons and the same jokes can only be exchanged for Chen Wenwen with a polite "haha" and "I'm going to take a shower." However, Eriyi is fond of these novel jokes and emoticons from the Chinese Internet.

Duzhong, whenever Lu Mingfei says a word, the image of the cherry blossom tree will shake several times.

Lu Mingfei sent another emoticon. Hui Liyi has a strong learning ability, and she also learned to use emoticons.

She collected the emoticons sent by Lu Mingfei and sent a few from time to time.

Lu Mingfei has a lot of inventory, all in his dialogue with Chen Wenwen. Those chat records seem to never end. After chatting for almost an hour, he only finished forwarding the jokes and emoticons from May.

And it’s not just this one. There are many more chat records between “Sunset” and “Snake”, but the roles are reversed. Those jokes and emoticons were all sent by “Snake” to “Sunset”.

"Sunset" only says "haha", "so funny" and "you are so funny" at the right time.

When he was in high school, Lu Mingfei would save the never-before-seen expressions and jokes sent by "Snake" to the photo album of his mobile phone, and then forward them to Chen Wenwen for topics.

My cousin is really miserable. Not only was he cheated on his feelings, but he also became someone's tool.

Chatting with Eriyi made Lu Mingfei feel like he had gone back a few years ago, his irritable heart calmed down, and his sleepiness emerged.

Adequate sleep is a basic requirement to maintain the normal operation of human body functions. Only with adequate sleep can people be energetic.

The sequelae of staying up late continuously occur. After relaxing the body and mind, the fatigue and tiredness accumulated in the body emerge from the limbs.

He opened his mouth and yawned loudly. His eyes became hazy with tears that had accumulated from his tear ducts.

It can only be said that emotions are contagious. Although Eri's actions and words are childish, they reveal the purest happiness. This joy and joy are also transmitted through the screen.

He has indeed been under too much psychological pressure these days. Although psychological pressure is invisible, it can have a real and destructive impact on people.

People can feel the existence of stressors, and at this time they will immediately be ready to "fight" or "escape" to protect themselves.

For example, it will release the sugar and fat that are usually stored to ensure energy supply, increase heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure, so that the body can obtain more nutrients, etc.

This self-protection state is called an anti-stress state, which allows people to better face difficulties. However, the anti-stress state consumes a lot of energy. If it is maintained continuously, not only will the person suffer huge psychological pain, but the energy will also be exhausted.

Lu Mingfei couldn't sleep in the past few days because his self-protection mechanism was activated. Because of "Old Tang"'s death, he was under tremendous psychological pressure. His body was unconsciously in a state of preparation for war. His muscles and nerves were tense, and his five senses were tense.

Sensitivity increased.

But now, the source of pressure has finally been released.

Just like practicing with the shadow clone technique, the moment the clone disappears, all the accumulated fatigue will emerge on the main body. When Lu Mingfei's "anti-stress state" is lifted, fatigue will flood his body like a tide.

.

His eyelids started to fight and he was urged to rest.

If it were an ordinary person, he would probably fall asleep immediately, but this level is still within his tolerance range.

If necessary, he can do it by asking him to stand up and fight with others. After all, the enemy will not wait until you have rested enough before attacking.

But this is a university dormitory, there is no smell of smoke or blood, only warm quilts and soft pillows.

Lu Mingfei yawned again. He said goodbye to Eliyi on QQ and said good night. Eiliyi also replied goodnight obediently and did not pester Lu Mingfei to continue telling jokes.

The phone screen stopped, Lu Mingfei wrapped himself tightly in the quilt, his breathing gradually became steady, and he fell asleep like a child.

...

As night falls on Friday, a faint white light shines from the huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows of Norton Hall. This ancient Baroque building has a history of hundreds of years. The walls and nave are wider than ordinary buildings, and the pure gold

The lion head statue is decorated on the weathered marble wall, giving people a heavy sense of history.

The stained glass on the second floor is painted with artistic paintings. Unlike the Renaissance, which was serious, reserved and balanced, the Baroque emphasized emotional expression and reflected luxury and style.

Norton Hall existed when the school was founded. As the base of Cassel College's first Lions Club, President Angers personally controlled the architectural style. Although it has undergone many subsequent reconstructions and repairs, it is still the same in appearance as the original building.

The appearance is not much different, but there are a lot more decorations, donated by alumni at all levels. To prevent wear and tear, most of them are placed in the exhibition room on the second floor. Today, many exhibits have been taken out.

Brightly colored oil paintings are hung on the walls of the inner hall, fresh bouquets are inserted into antique vases, and they are harmoniously placed on both sides of the red carpet at the door. Lanterns and flowers are pulled from the roof to the flowers, and there are flowers on the branches beside the flowers.

It was hung with bright lanterns, shining like the Milky Way in the night, like a curtain of stars.

"Evening class ends at 8 o'clock. 40,500 drones are on standby. Photographers and lighting technicians are ready. We have purchased the right to use the projection screen for 10 minutes. Norma will be responsible for broadcasting. At that time, the sports ground, Yixin Garden, aquarium

The picture can be seen on the big screen in the stadium, sports hall, office building square, and parking lot. The drone will fly in the air according to the preset program. The truck of the 'Green Forest' Fireworks Company is parked in the back mountain valley. Time

As soon as it arrives, the fireworks tube will be lit." A man wearing black-rimmed glasses and a student union uniform reported to Caesar and Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei was wearing a dark blue dress, with a red bow tied around his neck, hair sprayed with hairspray, and a faint smell of sea salt perfume. He looked clean and neat, full of heroic spirit, and very male model-like, just like his usual appearance.

They look completely different from each other.

I have to say that a Buddha relies on his gold attire, and a person relies on his clothes. If he walked into his aunt's house wearing this outfit, his aunt might politely ask him if he went to the wrong door. If he said yes, his aunt might even go to the door to help him.

He opened the door and said goodbye with a smile.

Of course, there is another possibility, just like when an elder sees a junior with dyed hair and pierced ears, he picks up her small strip and wants to spank Lu Mingfei's ass, saying that he is good but does not learn from bad, and dresses up

The person looks like a dog, and his eyes are blinded by the sun.

This high-end dress was prepared by Caesar, and the styling was done two hours in advance. Special costume designers and stylists created this outfit for him.

He came with Ye Sheng, and now Ye Sheng went to accompany the heroine to the entrance. As one of the "organizers" of this dance, he was waiting for the guests in the hall.

He was now in a closed room on the second floor, sitting on both sides of the sofa with Caesar.

Caesar was wearing a pure black dress, with a calm expression, nodding and communicating with his subordinates, like a general commanding the overall situation.

Lu Mingfei, on the other hand, looked at it again and again with his mobile phone, unable to say anything. After all, the formulation of the plan had nothing to do with him. He had not been here since Ye Sheng and Caesar reached an agreement. He wanted to come in yesterday to take a look.

Look, in the end, I was intercepted halfway by a gentle and kind heroine and didn't make it.

This was the first time he heard the specific plan. It was much more luxurious than he expected. He thought it was just to hold a dance party for more than a hundred people, invite Ye Sheng and Shu De Aki's good friends to come and dance, and then invite

They were just trying to fish in troubled waters, but they didn't expect that they even had drones and fireworks ready. They even bribed Norma to help, and wrote a program specifically for Norma to do the calculations and arrangement of the drones.

It's very romantic when you think about it. The whole school can see the scene of Ye Sheng proposing to Shutoku Aki. If he were Shutoku Aki, he would definitely be moved to tears. He would kiss her on the spot and make a lifelong promise.

However, this set will probably cost a lot, and I don’t know how much it will cost.

We have to invite a band, prepare a buffet, and have fireworks and drones, etc. At least... at least 100,000 yuan or more.

Lu Mingfei scratched his head and used his poor imagination to settle the score.

"Lu Mingfei, don't forget our agreement. I'll wait for you at the gymnasium at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon." Caesar greeted his secretary and turned to look at Lu Mingfei, who was staring blankly at the Pikachu on the screen saver of his mobile phone.

"I remember, of course I remember, don't worry, Brother Caesar." Lu Mingfei quickly put the phone back into his pocket, "Thank you for your help, Brother. If Ye Sheng and I were left to handle it, we definitely wouldn't be able to do it this well."

"We are in a hurry, so we can only do this." Caesar tugged on his collar, stood up, opened the thick black curtains, and looked at the door of the Norton Hall.

Guests in formal dresses entered the venue one after another. The ladies put their hands on the men's hands and walked slowly and gracefully on the red carpet.

The piano piece played is the seventh dream piece in Robert Schumann's "Scenes from Childhood" kinderszenen op.15. The rhythm of the piece is slow and steady, the melody rises and falls evenly, and is delicate and moving. Against the backdrop of rich and gentle chords, it is filled with a dreamlike quality.

Quiet and sweet poetry.

The entire "Childhood Scenes" suite seems to be an adult recalling the beautiful childhood days. However, in fact, this is a love letter written by Robert Schumann to Clara Schumann. In Robert's diary, his creation is clearly recorded.

The background story and wishes of "Childhood Scenes".

After listening to the song, Clara wrote this in her reply to Robert: "Ah! Your "Childhood Scenes" has indescribable beauty. I wish I could kiss you! I thought yesterday and still think about it today -

—Could the poet who speaks in it really be mine?"

Among the dancing ladies who came today, how many can feel the strong love in the music?
