One day.
Five days.
Ten days.
Two weeks passed in the blink of an eye.
Under Dong Xuebing's leadership, the work in Guangming Street Office was carried out in an orderly manner. But there was nothing much to do. After the establishment of the model unit a while ago, there was nothing to do in the office. There were no major issues, and the small matters could be handled by the Party and Government Affairs Office and a few Deputy Directors. Dong Xuebing's only task these few days was to listen to reports, attend meetings, sign documents, and then sit in the Party Secretary's office from morning to night. When Dong Xuebing returned home, he still had nothing to do. This was because the District Party Secretary was still on sick leave, and Geng Yuehua was the temporary representative of the District Government. Since that day, Mayor Yuehua had not returned to the District Government Quarters. She seemed to be staying in the District Government Quarters, and Dong Xuebing did not look for her. She also did not reply to his texts. So, Dong Xuebing was bored.
Afternoon.
Office. Party Secretary's office.
Dong Xuebing had lunch at the cafeteria and returned to his room. He lit a cigarette and fiddled with the mouse, playing Fight the Landlord online.
Ring … ring … ring … Dong Xuebing's phone rang.
Dong Xuebing looked at the number and smiled. It's Yu Meixia.
"Hello, Sister Yu."
"Xiao Bing, it's me. You … are you busy?" Yu Meixia asked cautiously.
Dong Xuebing looked at his screen and smiled. "That's right. I am too busy, and I am playing games now."
Yu Meixia heard Dong Xuebing and quickly replied. "Alright. I have nothing to do and will not disturb you."
"Huh?" Dong Xuebing rolled his eyes and laughed. "Sister Yu, can't you tell I'm joking? If I am really busy, how can I play games? "
Yu Meixia asked suspiciously. "You are not busy?"
"No. Just tell me what you want." Yu Meixia is too serious and will believe whatever he says. Dong Xuebing also doesn't dare to joke with her. She might take it seriously if he says something stupid. Yu Meixia does not have the word joke in her dictionary.
Yu Meixia lowered her voice. "I'm fine. But Qianqian misses you."
Dong Xuebing laughed. "What about you? Do you miss me?"
Yu Meixia blushed. "… Yes."
"What is it? Do you want it or not? "
"… Qianqian is here." Obviously, it was inconvenient to talk.
"How's the little guy? I haven't seen her for two months. I really miss her. " Dong Xuebing laughed. "Err … are you asking Qianqian about coming to the City to attend High School? Don't worry, if I don't care about Qianqian's matters, whose will I care about? I've asked my mom to inform the school. It's a key high school in the city. When the time comes, Qianqian can directly report to school. By the way, I haven't decided where you'll be going to the neighborhood committee. You can come over when the time comes. I'll make arrangements after that. "
Yu Meixia nodded. "I will listen to you."
"Hehe, you'll listen to me?"
"Un!" His tone was firm.
Dong Xuebing sighed. "Sister Yu is the best."
"… No."
"You're quite humble."
"No."
Look at Sister Yu. She is obedient and obedient to Dong Xuebing. Geng Yuehua, on the other hand, is indifferent. Sigh … Comparisons are odious!
Dong Xuebing laughed and suddenly remembered something. "Have you thought about what happened last time?"
"What happened?"
"Your biological parents."
Yu Meixia kept quiet for a while before stuttering. "I … I still …"
Dong Xuebing replied helplessly. "Why are you still dragging on? We had done a DNA test, and it should be correct. Uncle Liu and Auntie Qian are not young anymore, and if you continue to drag on … do you know what I mean? I know you are nervous, but this is a good thing. You can reunite with your family, and it's a good thing. What's there to think about? Well, it's up to you. I can't do anything about it. I can only give you some advice. You'd better communicate with Qianqian first. Don't let her be unprepared. She's Uncle Liu's granddaughter, so she has the right to know about this. Anyway, think about it yourself. "
"… ok. I will speak to Qianqian."
"Ok. Call me anytime if you want to reunite with your family. I will contact you."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing continued playing Dou Dizhu, round after round.
After a while, Dong Xuebing lost four rounds in a row, and his points dropped rapidly. He quit the game and leaned back in his chair.
Dong Xuebing! Can you be any more bored?!
You are already the Street Office Director! You still have the mood to play Fight the Landlord?! You are really something!
Dong Xuebing felt he must find something to do. Since he has nothing to do at work, he might as well research his trump card. BACK, STOP, REVERSE. Other than the few commands he had discovered, are there any other commands that he did not discover? Dong Xuebing remembered he had read the dictionary from the beginning to the end. But when he discovered the word REVERSE, he read it for the second time. That means he did not notice the command when he read it for the first time and only noticed it when he read it for the second time. Dong Xuebing thought it might be because he was distracted when he read it for the first time. If that's the case, he might have read the entire English-Chinese dictionary once, but there might be some commands that he missed.
But how is he going to find them?
Read the dictionary one more time with all your attention?
Dong Xuebing got goosebumps when he thought about this. Bullsh * t! He believes no one in this world can concentrate on reading a thick dictionary and not get distracted. This is too boring, unless the person reads the dictionary every day. But it will take at least two months, and Dong Xuebing does not have the time to do so. Furthermore, Dong Xuebing had read the dictionary once and a half, and he is sick of it.
Dong Xuebing thought for a while and decided to be more detailed. He might as well try some words related to time.
Dong Xuebing thought for a while and decided to be more meticulous this time. He might as well try some words related to time and try his luck.
STOP means time stops, and BACK means time goes back. Then …
Start? The antonym of stop? Nope. No response.
What about begin? Still no success. There was no movement.
GO? The antonym of go back? Nope.
Dong Xuebing's English had improved by leaps and bounds because of this. His English is much better than when he was in university. He does not need to use the dictionary for most of the words. So, Dong Xuebing locked himself in his office to test the words.
One hour passed.
Dong Xuebing tried more than a hundred words, but nothing works.
Dong Xuebing smoked almost half a pack of cigarettes. He is worried because he does not know if there are any new commands. That's why he is not motivated. What if there are no new commands? Suddenly, Dong Xuebing looked at the empty remote control. He suddenly remembered a word written on DVD remotes. FF. This means fast forward. The full English name is … fast forward.
This is also related to time, and it is the opposite of REVERSE.
Dong Xuebing decided to give it a try. He held the cigarette between his fingers and mumbled to himself, "FORWARD!"
There are no signs!
In the blink of an eye, the cigarette in Dong Xuebing's hand burnt out like a fuse!
Ouch!
Dong Xuebing's hand trembled in pain and quickly muttered FORWARD to stop!
This scene shocked Dong Xuebing. If he does not stop the cigarette, it will take at least 10 to 20 minutes to burn. How did it burn out so quickly? This is illogical, and Dong Xuebing is sure that FORWARD is working. He checked the remaining time using the MENU, and it is one second less than the recorded time! This is the opposite of REVERSE? REVERSE is the time to go back to a specified object, and FORWARD is the time to go forward to a specified object?!
I must try!
Dong Xuebing stood up and searched around the room. In the end, he found the clock with the calendar on it. He focused his attention on the clock and immediately gave the command!
FORWARD!
Suddenly, the second hand on the clock moved forward at a speed that the naked eye can't catch. The minute hand is also moving fast, but the hour hand is moving slower.
Dong Xuebing was stunned to see this scene. Why are they not walking fast?
But Dong Xuebing did not hesitate and focused his attention on the clock.
Ten seconds …
Thirty seconds …
One minute is up!
FORWARD is stopped!
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and looked at the time on the clock. FORWARD had used up one minute, and the clock had moved forward by one day. It has moved forward by 24 hours. This is equivalent to going back one day by one second. FORWARD is not as effective as REVERSE. The difference is about 60 times. But when used on a single object, it is much longer than BACK.
What does this mean?
The same amount of energy and remaining time is used, but why is the time used to move the object backwards and forwards different?
Could it be that there is a fixed trajectory in the past, and the energy used to move the object backwards is lesser? The future is unknown, and the energy used to move the object forwards is more than the object backwards?
Or is there some function involved?
Is there any other unknown reason??
Dong Xuebing does not understand, but he knew he had discovered a new command. FORWARD!
