It was a black sedan. My roommate said that the car was not cheap, costing more than 300,000 yuan. But he also said that he would definitely have a luxury car, a villa and an annual salary of one million yuan in the future.

It wasn't actually the car that attracted Lin Mo's attention.

But the people in the car.

To be precise, it was a woman sitting in the back seat.

Lin Mo felt that the other person looked a little familiar, but until the car drove into the traffic in the distance, Lin Mo couldn't remember where he had seen the other person.

At this time, the guys in the same dormitory saw Lin Mo's look and started asking, and then began to talk about cars, women, and their future prospects.

Everyone has a good attitude and thinks they are God's chosen one, and they will definitely make something of themselves in the future.

They still have one year left before graduation, and they have already started thinking about their future.

When talking about this, everyone expressed their opinions.

After finishing his meal and returning to the dormitory, Lin Mo thought of the woman sitting in the back of the car again.

To be precise, it was a very young girl, probably about the same age as myself. Even though I only saw her profile, I still felt very familiar.

"Where on earth have you seen her?"

Lin Mo continued to think hard.

But most things in the world cannot be achieved by hard work.

Most of the efforts are in vain.

In the end, my head hurt so much that it hurt, but I still couldn’t remember it.

Don't want to think about it anymore.

Because Lin Mo suddenly remembered a theory he had seen on the Internet before. Psychologists pointed out that this "déjà vu" experience, also known as "déjà vu", is a normal physiological phenomenon. It refers to things that have never been experienced before, and at some point in time, they will produce a feeling of having experienced them before. Psychologists call this phenomenon the "hippocampus effect."

According to a survey conducted by psychologists, at least two-thirds of adults have experienced this wonderful feeling of "déjà vu". Moreover, the more imaginative and imaginative people are, the greater the chance of experiencing this feeling.

Lin Mo is one of those people who has a very wild and rich imagination.

Simply put, this is a phenomenon of self-fictitious thinking. When you get older and start living the same old life day after day and year after year, this phenomenon will disappear.

Lin Mo slept well that night.

Slowly, he got over the blow of broken heart. What those guys in the dormitory said was right: there is nothing that people cannot overcome.

During breaks, Lin Mo would go shopping and stroll around with a few good classmates.

Qiandu Commercial Plaza in Houniao City is a good place to go.

Lin Mo had been here several times before and felt that this place was pretty good, mainly because it was lively. Another important point was that there were young and beautiful girls everywhere.

There seems to be some activity here today, so there are a lot of people here.

As expected, an accident happened and Lin Mo got separated from his roommates.

Of course, this is not a big deal. Everyone goes their own way and it is common to meet each other when they return.

At this time, Lin Mo passed by a beauty salon, which is very common in commercial plazas.

Through the large floor-to-ceiling glass window, Lin Mo habitually glanced inside.

I saw a number of ladies sitting on the sofa, and one of them stood up, and suddenly, the skin on her face fell off.

Lin Mo was stunned when he saw this scene.

Look again.

That's not a face, it's a mask.

That's right, how can a person's face fall off so easily?

Lin Mo frowned at this time. He stood motionless in front of the glass window, thinking and recalling. Mainly because just a moment ago, he felt that this scene was familiar.

Still can’t remember.

"The Hippocampus Effect again!"

Lin Mo continued to walk forward. The music playing in the mall, mixed with the various sounds made by many customers, should have been very noisy.

But what’s interesting is that in this environment, if you sit on a chair next to it and look at everything around you as a bystander, you will find that even in this environment, you can still immerse yourself in your own world, concentrate on reading, or even write and create.

Recently, Lin Mo has always been irritated and restless due to inexplicable annoyance, but he doesn't know why.

Even in a truly quiet place, it is sometimes impossible to calm a restless heart.

In such a noisy place, we can actually find a rare peace.

Lin Mo found an empty seat and sat down, looking at the various people walking back and forth in front of him, thinking about the troubles that he himself didn't know why.

It has to be said that what the commercial center lacks the least is all kinds of couples.

Lin Mo felt that perhaps it was these couples that created troubles for him subconsciously, making him unconsciously think of Liu Jia, the good times in the past and their expectations for the future.

"Shopping is not as good as staying in an Internet cafe playing games. At least, I am successful in the game."

Lin Mo wanted to go back.

I stood up and walked towards the exit. When I got outside, I breathed in the fresh air into my lungs, and the depression I had originally felt was alleviated a lot.

When he looked up, Lin Mo saw the woman again.

It was just that I was eating skewers on the street a while ago and saw the woman in the car.

It's a very strange thing. Even though I don't know the other person, as soon as I see him, I can almost recognize him immediately. This is that very familiar face.

"I must know her!"

Lin Mo thought to himself.

The girl was tall and slender, wearing a nice black dress, and was shopping with two other female companions. Her skin was very white, much whiter than the other two female companions.

This makes her look special, very noble, with a kind of beauty that makes people feel ashamed of themselves.

When Lin Mo saw her, the other party happened to look over at him, and the two of them looked at each other.

Lin Mo moved away immediately.

The main reason was that he thought he might be paying special attention to her because she was pretty.

And he was sure that he had never seen this girl before, and that special sense of familiarity might just be a self-deceptive illusion.

"Let's go to the Internet cafe. Once you're in the Internet cafe, you can get rid of all your worries!"

Lin Mo muttered as he prepared to call his roommates to tell them that he was going back.

As a result, before Lin Mo took out his phone and dialed, he felt someone standing in front of him. He looked up and was stunned.

It's the pretty girl in the long black dress.

The other person stared at him, as if he had some questions to ask.

The two female companions following the girl also looked curious. One of them asked in a low voice: "Xiaoyu, what's going on? Do you know him?"

The girl shook her head, then mustered up the courage to ask, "I think I've seen you somewhere before."

Lin Mo said, "To be honest, I wanted to ask you the same question."

"Have we met somewhere before?"

"I can't remember, I just think you look familiar. I saw you sitting in a car on the road before, and I thought..."

"What's your name?" the girl asked.

"My name is Lin Mo, and your name is Xiao Yu, right?"

The girl was stunned, then she remembered that her friend had just called her name.

"My name is Chu Yu!"

She corrected herself.

Chu Yu’s two friends kept saying that it must be an illusion. How could two people who had nothing in common know each other?

Urging Chu Yu to leave.

Maybe it was just an illusion, Lin Mo was ready to leave.

He is going to the Internet cafe to relax.

Chu Yu was pulled away by her two friends, but after a while, she ran over to catch up with Lin Mo and said, "Let's add each other's contact information, maybe we'll remember it someday."

Lin Mo said yes.

After exchanging numbers, Lin Mo's phone rang. It was his roommate calling, asking him where he was and if he wanted to stay overnight.

"Of course I will, it's still the same place, bring some drinks..."

So life still needs some adjustment, and there is some beauty in it.

Some people say that this is a short-lived joy, something like spiritual opium, which will only make people happy for a short period of time. In this extremely short period of time, they can forget all their worries.

But after this short-lived happiness, there are still troubles all around. What is coming will come, and what cannot be gotten rid of will not be gotten rid of.

Everyone understands the principle, but how many people can focus on solving troubles, especially those that cannot be solved at all?

Young people have another advantage: even if they stay up all night, they can still continue their classes the next day.

That's pretty awesome.

Although I am very sleepy, my body is indeed very resilient.

As summer vacation approaches, there are fewer classes and naturally more happy times.

On the way back to Luoyan City, Lin Mo slept all the way and he dreamed of Liu Jia again.

Of course he wouldn't tell anyone about this.

A man should be able to take on things and also be able to let go.

Mom and Dad prepared a delicious meal, all of which were Lin Mo's favorites. The family was having a great time at the table. Mom and Dad didn't mention anything about Liu Jia.

Obviously he knew about their breakup.

It is even possible that Liu Jia called directly and said it.

Lin Mo knew Liu Jia very well, and that girl was capable of doing such a thing.

Back in his room, Lin Mo lay on the bed to catch up on his sleep.

The furnishings in the room have not changed much in the past few years. They are still the same things as before, but many of them are no longer used.

For example, books on a bookshelf.

Another example is that old computer.

Since entering university, Lin Mo seldom touched them. Perhaps in a few years, they would be treated as garbage worth a few dollars per pound and taken away by the scrap collector.

Lin Mo woke up after sleeping for a while and drank some water. Out of boredom, he turned on the old computer and planned to check out the latest games to see if the computer could still run them.

As expected, it was very laggy.

Lin Mo quit the game, and then accidentally saw the novel document he had written.

This thing wasn't finished at the time.

I have long forgotten why I didn't finish writing this, but I just didn't finish it.

Although he wrote it himself, he had long forgotten the specific content.

Looking at it again now, there are too many childish and inexplicable modifiers in the text, and the overall framework is also problematic. Lin Mo himself even frowned while reading it.

I can't bear to watch it anymore.

At this time, Lin Mo remembered that Liu Jia had said that he wanted to be the first to read this novel, but this did not happen in the end.

"So, life is like this. Not everything can live up to the original idea. At the beginning, I thought I could finish this novel. At that time, we also thought we could stay together forever. Nothing could separate us. After all, we were childhood sweethearts..."

"Nonsense, you are still young and naive. Nothing in this world is constant. This is true for things and human hearts."

Lin Mo felt that he had grown up.

So-called growth means accepting one unpleasant reality after another.

"Fuck you!"

Lin Mo cursed.

He himself didn't know who he was scolding, he just wanted to scold.

I opened the bookcase and flipped through the old comic books and novels, and of course, many paintings.

Lin Mo thought of another hobby he had given up.

draw.

So when looking through these paintings, Lin Mo felt like he was reading his own epitaph, because some things were buried and decayed, and the worst thing was that he buried them with his own hands.

When he turned to a page of paintings, Lin Mo was stunned.

This is a painting of a woman.

She was tall and wore a black dress that was as long as the night. It seemed as if there was a ghost roaming in the dress. Her skin was frighteningly white and very beautiful. One could sense a terrifying resentment and malice from her. However, Lin Mo felt inexplicably familiar with her.

None of this is the most important thing.

Most importantly, it’s the look of this woman.

Lin Mo narrowed his eyes at this time.

"I know why she looks so familiar."

Lin Mo was talking about Chu Yu.

He still had the other party's contact information, and they contacted each other several times after that day, of course, they were just simple greetings, understanding and discussions.

The discussion was fruitless.

Because neither of them could remember where they had seen each other.

We didn’t contact each other after that.

Now Lin Mo remembered where he had seen Chu Yu.

It's this painting.

There is a date on the painting.

It was painted about five years ago. Five years ago, I was still a high school student and it was impossible for me to have met Chu Yu, so why did I paint such a picture at that time?

Staring at this painting, some dusty memories were turned out from the deepest corners and slowly appeared in front of Lin Mo.

“I remember now!”

Lin Mo narrowed his eyes.

He remembered a dream he had five years ago.

A very real dream.

I sat there for more than half an hour and remembered everything I needed to remember.

"What is true and what is false? Zhou Zhuang dreamed of being a butterfly. He is both Zhou Zhuang and a butterfly. Chun Feng, oh Chun Feng, your move is indeed brilliant, but you overlooked one thing."

Lin Mo smiled strangely. He took out his cell phone, found the name "Chu Yu" in the address book, and dialed it.
