Chapter 3 The Death of Schrödinger
One came from the nurse who just came in to change his dressing, and the other came from the policeman who just opened the door.
The nurse looked at him with pity, while the policeman looked at him with gentleness yet severity.
It was as if he was afraid of scaring him, but he couldn't suppress the dignity that came with his profession.
The patient in the next bed went out for a check-up, and after the nurse left, Qiu Tingxu was left alone to face the police officer.
"You——" The voice was full of energy and sounded very powerful.
[Isn’t this too harsh? What if the child is timid and gets scared? No, I have to be gentle. 】
The policeman cleared his throat and tried to be gentler. "There are only your fingerprints on the fruit knife, and there are no traces of other people at the scene... Can you tell me why you committed suicide?"
Little did he know that Qiu Tingxu could clearly hear his inner thoughts among dozens of voices, some near and some far away.
Listening to the tough policeman's deliberately softened voice, the contrast is quite big.
He managed to hold back his laughter with great difficulty, causing his pale face to become slightly distorted due to blood loss.
police:? [This child seems to be trying to hold back his laughter?] 】
Qiu Tingxu sat up straight, lowered his eyes and admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, I was wrong for a moment and did something stupid. I will never be so reckless in the future!"
The policeman smiled with relief: "Don't be nervous. Don't treat me as a policeman. Just treat me as an ordinary uncle."
"When you have the strength to walk again, I will take you to eat the best tonic soup in the city to replenish your precious blood.
If you want, you can tell me what your difficulties are.
Life is short, only a few decades long. If you lose it the first time, there will be no second time. ”
"I mean, don't do stupid things next time. There will always be someone you can miss in this world."
Qiu Tingxu listened quietly. He had accepted all the memories of this cannon fodder.
He searched through all his memories, but apart from the money, he really couldn't find anything worth reminiscing about.
So he whispered, "What if there really isn't one?"
The policeman's heavy palm gently fell on the top of his drooped head and rubbed it a few times in an unskilled manner.
His hair was chestnut brown, thick and soft, and should have been full of youthful vigor.
But now, because the boy had been lying down for too long, his legs had become limp and he couldn't stand up straight.
“Then create it yourself.”
Coincidentally, Qiu Tingxu actually thought so too, but it seemed like there was always a group of people performing a drama in his mind.
Is it possible for him to retire to the mountains and create a life in this troubled world?
To be honest, the fact that he was able to stay alive and maintain his mental state was probably because he was in hard mode.
But there is no way he would give up the university that his original body had gotten into with great difficulty!
What an inspiring original owner!
I asked tutors to come to my home in shifts to tutor me all day long, and I had to endure every teacher's voice, whether it was poor or rich.
After doing piles of five-three exams, I finally took the college entrance exam alone in a special isolation classroom...
Ah~ It’s so difficult for such a damn rich person to take the college entrance examination!
Everyone thought that the original owner had some problem and was seeking privileges and had to occupy a classroom alone to take exams in order to show off his power.
Even the original owner's stupid parents thought so.
In fact, it’s simply because the school is too noisy and I can’t concentrate on studying for the exam.
It is also very easy to cheat passively, and the original owner doesn't want this to happen.
But no one believed that the original owner could hear the voice of his heart, and he had no intention of letting everyone know that he was different from ordinary people.
Even though his identity and actions are already different from those of ordinary people, they are still different after all.
The road to study is so tortuous. If Qiu Tingxu, who came back to life by borrowing the original owner's body, doesn't go to this university, wouldn't it be a bit impolite?
He was always a respectable man and very polite.
So, go ahead! This university is a must!
Not only did he have to go, he also had to study how to block out the irrelevant dramas being performed by countless people in his mind.
Doesn't it say that when God closes a door for someone, he will open a window for someone else?
He just didn't believe there was no way to shut down mind reading.
Qiu Tingxu never knew how to write the word "accept fate".
****
Fortunately, Qiu Tingxu may be dead, but not completely dead. He also doesn’t know whether he is dead or not in the real world. This is called Schrödinger’s death.
Unfortunately, Qiu Tingxu entered the book the day before college started.
That day is August 31, 2028, and the original owner was born on August 31, 2010.
The date of suicide happened to be his 18th birthday.
The reason why he chose this day to commit suicide was so painful that Qiu Tingxu didn't want to think about it anymore.
Children who lack love are really pitiful and terrible.
In the end, he was unable to follow the police officer out to drink the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup because the nurse said he was too weak and not suitable for a big tonic and needed to take it slowly.
The policeman looked guilty and blushed for a second because of his overly concerned behavior, then politely left.
Only Qiu Tingxu cared about his studies. He asked the nurse eagerly, "Can I go to school tomorrow?"
The nurse looked at him lovingly and said, "I don't recommend you go."
"By the way, when you were unconscious just now, the police found your parents' contact information, but they seemed to be very busy..."
"Will there be someone to accompany you when you are discharged from the hospital?"
Qiu Tingxu shrugged, looked out the window, and curled his lips: "I can be discharged from the hospital alone when the time comes. I have no choice. Who made me so independent?"
This fragile yet strong look made the nurse feel heartbroken.
"Why are your parents like this! You almost...how could they have the heart not to even look at you?"
The original owner was indeed independent, but was forced to be independent. He desperately desired love from his parents, but could not get it again.
He also had no way of making friends. He used to have some, but gradually he took the initiative to cut off all the friendships.
They were too noisy, and he didn't want to listen to anyone's inner voice. All the hypocritical flattery and fawning were exposed in front of him.
At that time, he had not yet learned to stay away from others without making a sound, so he could only lose his temper. Originally, he was also a young master who was brought up in a pampered manner.
It can be said that it was the mind-reading ability he acquired at the age of ten that destroyed his once harmonious family and his entire life.
But Qiu Tingxu is not the original owner. He is not only independent, but also loves himself enough and never gets stuck in a rut.
Lack of love? Does not exist.
But the memories and emotions left by the original owner still seemed to affect him.
So he stopped laughing and said sadly: "Maybe it's because they have a new child."
Nurse:"……"
[Oh my god, what kind of rich and powerful drama is this? Can I listen to it without paying? God knows how shocked I was when I heard whose child this was! 】
The original owner's father is the current head of the Qiu family, and his mother is the apple of the Lin family's eye.
The Qiu family and the Lin family are both ranked among the top five families in Nan'an City.
The Lin family is even slightly stronger than the Qiu family.
When Qiu Changming and Lin Muyue got married, they advocated free love and a strong alliance.
It is undeniable that they were once sweet and happy for a while.
But in the eyes of these men in high positions, love seems to be just a novelty.
It is very common to find someone younger and prettier after the seven-year itch or when a relationship has cooled down.
Lin Muyue was left immersed in the illusion of harmony for a short while.
On the day the original owner turned ten, his parents were there, and his grandparents and grandparents all came to celebrate his birthday.
The birthday party was held in advance. It was a party specifically used for getting to know people and building relationships, but he didn't like it. He still preferred the birthday celebrated by his own family.
The moon is bright outside the window, and there are laughter and joy inside.
In the few seconds when the candle was blown out, the original owner heard his father say something different from what others had said to coax him into making a wish.
[I’ll quickly celebrate Ting’er’s birthday and go on a date with my little Jiaojiao…]
In the thick darkness, he didn't even know that his father didn't open his mouth to speak, but was quietly waiting for him to make a wish.
The light came on the next second after the voice fell, and someone shouted to turn on the light.
But the little owner began to be curious about who the little Jiaojiao his father was talking about.
He has no sister by that name.
"Dad, who is Xiao Jiaojiao? Why do you want to date her?"
