How did Xiao Ming die?

Li Si put hot water for us. I said it was a bath, so I can take a bath first.

I was lying in the bathtub, my body was very heavy in the water and I didn't want to move.

Toki, five-petal flower, Li Ming, Shiliang.

The steam made my eyes narrow, and only the ceiling of the bathroom was left in my field of vision, which was as white as the snow that day.

In the snow, lay a boy wearing a light blue coat. A scarlet blood flower bloomed on the left side of his brain. His name is Li Ming, and this is the beginning of this story.

Why does Li Ming in the illusion have a face like mine?

Why is Li Ming imitating my handwriting and habits?

I do not know.

All I know is that the person who helped Li Ming transfer to another school died, and he was the No. 1 victim in a serial murder case.

The murderer is Bai Yang, a member of the Five Petal Flower.At first, I thought that the motive of the serial murders was to avenge the baby trafficking incident 25 years ago, but An Yile told me that the three deceased were probably related to an organization called Five Petal Flowers.

So, it all comes back to the five-petal flower.

Is Li Ming related to the five-petal flower?

In addition, I said that among the five petals, the only person he hates is called Toki.And I have always believed that Toki is the Shiliang I was looking for.

I made a bold association, Toki and Li Ming... are they related?

In the hot water, the accelerated blood in the body rubbed against the walls of my blood vessels.The mist on my eyelashes was so heavy that I closed my eyes.

"Thank you so much for today."

Who is speaking?

I opened my eyes, and there was darkness in my field of vision.I was standing on the boulevard leading to the north gate of the school.On both sides are bald sycamore trees, covered with snow.

"If you hadn't picked up my student card, I wouldn't be able to enter the library today," he said.

I turned my head and looked at the person who was talking to me.

The man had yellowish and soft hair, with thin bangs hanging down his forehead.Probably because of the cold weather, his eye sockets were filled with moisture, and his nose was also red from the cold.

"Your name is Li Ming, right?" said the person in front of him.

I was stunned.

Then he asked, "Which Ming are you?"

"I am...Xiao Ming's Ming." I was dumb.

"I'm also often called Xiao Ming by them. The word 'Ming' in my name is unlucky, but I like your Ming better!"

I was carrying a schoolbag and holding a physics simulation of the five-year college entrance examination in my arms, and I was side by side with that person.

He saw the book in my arms and asked, "Are you also a senior in high school? Reviewing physics?"

I don't know what kind of illusion I have fallen into, I just blindly cater to the person in front of me.

"Well. I like physics." I said.

"Ah!" He seemed very excited, "You like physics! Did you solve the big physics problem at the end of the monthly exam?"

If this illusion evolves according to my experience, then the big physics problem this person is referring to must be the one that uses the Big Bang as the background to find momentum, I remember.

He rolled the tape on his schoolbag with his fingers, "That question is too nonsense. And I think the explosion theory itself is absurd. The origin of the universe can never come from just one point."

I laughed, I put the book in my arms under my arm, and put my hands in my pockets, "Your entanglement lies in 'creating something out of nothing', right? The huge material world comes from only one point, this theory is really unacceptable .However, I think the root of the problem is how you define 'nothing'."

"Infinitely small." He breathed a sigh of relief and warmed his hands. "That point is not nothing, but everything is gathered in an infinitely small space. Afterwards, the universe went through a process from infinitely small to infinitely large. Now scientists have also demonstrated that the universe A theory of slow expansion."

As he spoke, he took out a pen from the outer layer of his schoolbag with his backhand, "Actually, I've been calculating the lifespan of the universe recently, and I've come up with a calculation formula!"

"Haha, it's too high school." I laughed dryly, and handed him the physics book in my hand, "You can just write it in the book, anyway, I've finished this question."

He held the bottom of the book with one hand, "I don't seem to be using this pen very much. I'll try Ang first..."

Then, I watched him randomly try two words on the back of the physics book with a ballpoint pen that was not very wet - Shi Ming.

"Oh! It's in the water!" He opened the book and wrote a calculation in the blank space.

It was an algebraic expression, using only nine characters.

He defined each character individually and then said to me, "In short ... there is gravity between stars, and at infinity they start to come together, and at infinity the gravity turns to repulsion and bounces back. It goes on and on, the universe is a cycle process. So, if you can find the numbers represented by these letters, you can calculate the period of the universe."

"En." I couldn't take my eyes off the man's face.

Paralyzed, I look so handsome!

So what is the situation!I dreamed of myself in an illusion, and I appeared on Li Ming's body?Is all this my fantasy, or a memory I once had?Could it be that I have had this conversation with Li Ming before, but I have forgotten it subconsciously?

In a trance, I and I have already walked out of the school gate.He went right and I had no destination.

Damn it, fuck it, I'm hungry.

I went straight to the Lanzhou ramen shop outside the school gate.Yes, I touched my pocket and found that there is no money yet.One turned around and went into the bookstore next door, then sold the five-year college entrance examination and three-year simulation in his hand, and went to eat a bowl of ramen with eight yuan.

As I was eating, I felt someone calling me again.

"Shi Ming! Wake up!"

Opening my eyes again, I went back to the bathroom.In the field of vision is no longer the white ceiling of the bathroom, but the dead eyed face of my deskmate.

Seeing me awake, he frowned, "You're going to die..."

It seems that I have come out of the illusion, but why is it so dizzy?

"Cough, cough, cough, cough." I straightened up and sat up in the bathtub, leaned on Zhenzhen and began to cough dryly.

It was I who supported my body with both hands and told me that he came in to take a look after seeing that I had been washing for too long.I fell asleep in the tub with my nose and mouth slipping under the surface, and I would have drowned if he had been a minute late.

I was so dizzy from coughing that I leaned on my body exhausted.

He patted my back lightly and pulled me out of the tub.

Dragging me all the way back to the bedroom, I lay on his back on the bed and panted vigorously.

After a long time, the dizziness was diluted by the oxygen. I took the back of my hand away from my eyes, and stared blankly at Zhen beside me.

He stood there with no expression on his face, just looking at me quietly.

"Sleep if you're tired," he said.

I shook my head.

"My brother, I remembered something and went home first."

He helped me put the clothes beside the bed, and he didn't ask me half a word from the beginning to the end.

When I left his house, it was almost midnight, and I was the only pedestrian on the street.

There was a restlessness that I couldn't bear, and I ran all the way home.There is one thing I must confirm!

My mother is still not at home.

After entering the house, I went straight to the bookcase in the bedroom.

In the illusion, I sold Li Ming's physics book to a bookstore, and I just bought this second-hand physics book from that bookstore a month ago.

My name is written on the back of the book, and because the ballpoint pen is not water-resistant, the first few strokes of the name only have ink marks and no pen ink.

Turning to page 170 of the physics book, there is an algebraic formula composed of nine characters written there, and the definition of each letter is densely written below.

It's my handwriting!

All of these coincided with the illusion just now.That is to say, the illusion just now may have really happened in the past, but I forgot that I had such an encounter with Li Ming!

I slumped on the seat, raised my hand, and held up my phone.

I made a phone call to Leng Xiaotai, and I told him that now I know about the existence of the Protoss, let's open the skylight and speak clearly, does Li Ming's matter have anything to do with you?

He didn't say 'no', he said he didn't know.

I said "oh" and asked him, "Do you still remember Li Ming's face?"

He told me truthfully, "To be honest, Shi Ming, Li Ming... I can only remember the existence of this person, and then he died. Now no one in our class remembers his appearance, he His voice, his every move in the class. Even when I mentioned the incident of falling from a building in our class party some time ago, some students didn’t even know that this student had been transferred to the class. His existence was almost just a name, He has been transferred for two weeks, and the students in other classes have no idea that he is from our class [-]."

"Oh……"

"What? Are you still checking this?"

"Thank you, I'll hang up now."

In fact, I don't care what kind of face Li Ming has. In fact, I also saw his face in the reflection of light in the illusion just now.Nothing unusual.

However, Li Ming, as a person who has a special purpose to approach me, it is possible for him to disguise or false voice.

What I care about is that Li Ming's existence has been downplayed, and I care that he has almost left no trace in the impression of people around him.

In the end, Li Ming only had one name left, which was the same as that person. Toki.

Lights went out.

I was in a daze and immediately came back to my senses.At this moment, I am still sitting at the desk, and there are only a few rays of light that come in from the window in the room.

Is there a power outage?

No!

The moonlight pulled a line on the blade, and a coldness hit my chin.

I raised my head with the back of the knife, and said to the people behind me, "There's no need to turn off the lights. You know, with my small body, I can't beat you even with the lights on."

The person behind him had a hearty laugh, but the killing intent on the blade was still full, "Hahaha, it's a good atmosphere to kill with the lights off."

His voice is very familiar, at least my first reaction is that this person is called Chen Feng.

Yes, from the second half of my third year of high school, the dumpling boy who moved downstairs to my house and opened a dumpling restaurant.

"Chen Feng..." I said, "What are you doing?"

"Haha." The sharp blade stuck to my throat, "I really want to know which part of your memory you gave up, Soul."

The knife maintains a delicate strength, and I can see blood if it is slightly off.

My response at that time was surprisingly calm and calm, "Oh? How should I answer this sentence so that you can put down the knife?"

He smiled brightly again, held the knife in one hand against me, and even put his hand on my shoulder, lying on my back unscrupulously like a good brother.

He was much taller than me, and I felt heavy on my back, but the knife in front of my neck made me dare not bend down.

"Well..." He thought about it for about 3 minutes.

"do not know."

As he spoke, he turned the blade and stabbed straight at my throat.Blood splattered everywhere.
