Chapter 105: A Fool Should Act Like a Fool



Sunday afternoon.

More and more people came back from home, and the school gate and dormitory building gradually became lively.

Wang Zi, who finally got a chance to sleep in, immediately became energetic in the afternoon, as if he had been given an injection of chicken blood.

Unfortunately, he was too energetic and seemed a little nervous. He couldn't sit still in the library. He left the homework he brought with him and ran around among the bookshelves.

The librarian had glanced at him several times, and if he hadn't disturbed other people's reading or homework, her expression would have shown that she wanted to kick him out.

The library's opening hours were limited, so Wei Lai didn't bother to care about him. He and Qingting found a corner and studied the books they found on the bookshelf.

There are many books about the future that can be retrieved from the library computers, but most of them are about predictions about the future world and some books about one's own future planning and management. There are not many books that mention the ability to predict the future, and most of them are science fiction novels.

But it's better than nothing, and it's a good choice just to use it as a reference.

The afternoon sun was charming, and the smell of books made people calm down. Wei Lai held his chin with his hand and flipped through a collection of short science fiction stories, looking for science fiction stories about predicting the future.

Occasionally when he turned around, he could see Qingting standing next to him, with her hands under the book, flipping through the novel page by page, reading it carefully.

The sunlight coming in from the window was reflected by the orange-yellow table and shone on her face, with a faint soft glow.

Books make people progress, and beauty makes people wish time would stop.

[She is indeed the most beautiful when she is quiet.]

Looking at Qingting, Wei Lai stopped turning the pages of the book, but there are always people who are ungrateful and intrude on other people's peaceful lives.

"Xiaoting, look, I found a book that can improve your IQ." Tong Duoduo's cheeks flushed with excitement. She walked over and couldn't wait to squeeze next to Qingting and sit down.

"Look, it says above that massaging these acupoints every day can improve memory... And here, if you don't eat rice or meat and just drink water every day, it can eliminate waste accumulated in the body and make your thinking more agile."

After hearing what Tong Duoduo said, Wei Lai rolled his eyes to the back of his head. If this worked, there would be no stupid people in the world.

After Qingting finished listening, she also leaned over to take a look, then flipped through the cover and back of the book. A slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she turned her head to Tong Duoduo and said, "Do you really want to be smart?"

"Of course, who doesn't want to become smart?" Tong Duoduo said as if it was a matter of course.

"Then finish the book and forget about it."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because this book doesn't even have a publisher. It's just like folk remedies. Some of these methods may work a little, but they're definitely not as exaggerated as they're claimed to be. If you believe them, you'd be a real weirdo."

Qingting took another look at the contents of the book, and the mention of daily toe massage, which further confirmed her statement.

"Is everything in this book fake?" Tong Duoduo looked at the book in her hand, her eyes full of reluctance.

"It's definitely not true that it can improve IQ, but if you want to relax your body and mind, and then calm down to think about something, the flower essential oils, yoga, and meditation methods in it can do that." Qingting saw something in the book's catalog and said.

"If it's just about calming down, forget it." Tong Duoduo flipped through the book and read the methods Qingting mentioned. She immediately shook her head, feeling that the most likely thing for her to do after calming down would be to fall asleep rather than think about things.

"If you want to become smarter, you might as well read biographies. Learning from the experiences of predecessors is also a way to become smarter. It also provides material for your future writing." Wei Lai suggested.

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that." Tong Duoduo's eyes lit up, and she left the book behind and went back into the bookshelf area.

The outsiders finally left, and Wei Lai could continue to read with peace of mind.

This interruption led him to a short story about a person with the superpower of predicting the future. Before he even started reading, he felt something was wrong next to him.

He turned around and found Qingting looking at him.

"Why are you looking at me?"

"You were looking at me just now. Can't I look back at you?" Qingting said neither lightly nor harshly, her eyes so gentle that Wei Lai's ears felt hot.

"You can look at it if you want, but what did you find out about my abilities?"

Wei Lai's eyes followed the novel line by line, but he couldn't concentrate on anything. Being watched by Xiao Ting made him very concerned.

Although he didn't look at Qingting, he could notice her slowly pinching her neck, and he even wondered if he had awakened another extraordinary ability.

After reading for a long time, Qingting felt a little tired. She pinched her neck and said, "If I had to say anything, I would say that predicting the future is a powerless ability. The more you want to change something, the more you can't change it, and the more despair you feel than not knowing anything at all."

"Really? Every time I used it on you, I was pretty desperate because it never worked."

Wei Lai was muttering to himself when Qingting poked his face with her finger. When she turned around, she looked as if nothing had happened.

"This time it's really hair. If you don't believe me, look." Qingting took a piece of hair and showed it to Wei Lai.

His hair was thin and long, and it was shaking as he exhaled from his nose, trying to show off his hair.

"It's obviously your own hair, how did it get on my face?"

"Maybe it floated over on its own when Duoduo came over just now." Qingting put her hair away and continued the previous topic. "Actually, the authors of these novels don't know that someone really has this ability. They can't imagine what would happen if someone who can predict the future did something to change it."
