Friday, October 16, 2009.

At the Junior High School Affiliated to Blue University, under the osmanthus tree in front of the No. 2 teaching building, in front of the classroom door of Class 7 of Grade 2.

Lin Yue, who is still in the second year of junior high school this year, ushered in a meaningful moment on this day.

For the first time in his life, he was confessed by a girl.

"Lin, Lin Yue..."

"Ming, tomorrow will be your 14th birthday, me, I..."

The little girl is short, with a small round face, cherry lips, and her watery eyes are so nervous that she blinks from time to time, like stars flashing.

Although she was wearing the blue and white school uniform of a junior high school student and trying hard to stand straight, her tender face and her childish short ponytail made her look like a childish elementary school student secretly wearing her sister's clothes.

"This, I'll give it to you!"

Without saying anything, the girl blushed and thrust her carefully packaged gift box into Lin Yue's palm.

Lin Yue opened the box dullly and saw that there was a simple black electronic watch inside.

The dial clearly came into view at this moment.

It shows the date and time:

“October 16, 2009, 6:44.”

This scene was deeply imprinted into Lin Yue's mind and hidden in the depths of his memory.

This time, this place.

The bright sunshine that morning, the breeze was cool, and the fragrance of osmanthus flowers in front of the teaching building.

And the name of the girl in front of me:

"You, you are..."

Lin Yue frowned slightly, and memories came to his heart vaguely:

"Gu...Gu Jinger?"

"Hey?" The girl's cute ponytails trembled slightly, and she looked over at a loss.

"Yes, Gu Jing'er, she seems to be calling this name..."

Lin Yue was still muttering to himself in a hazy state:

"I haven't seen her for almost 13 years... Why did I suddenly dream of her?"

I have thought about it every day and night. What did he think about before going to bed? I dreamed of a little girl who had long been forgotten by him in the depths of my memory?

Oh, by the way...

watch!

The sleepy Lin Yue finally recalled his experience on this day:

He received a letter from the future, with blood-stained fingerprints proving to be from him.

But this future letter only reads a few sentences:

"Don't change the past!"

"The watch is the key!"

The first sentence is easy to understand, but it is just a warning with clear meaning.

The second sentence is divine and confusing.

A watch is a key, what does it mean? Does this so-called watch actually refer to a certain watch, or does it have any special meaning?

Lin Yue and his two colleagues thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. The recent continuous overtime work in the bureau has already made him exhausted.

So he had to leave the doubt for the time being, lie on the desk weakly, and fall asleep in confusion and fatigue.

And perhaps it was the word "watch" he thought hard that triggered some subconscious keywords...

Lin Yue unconsciously recalled this moment in a half-sleeping and half-awake dreaming of this scene from a distant childhood.

watch.

Nearly 13 years ago, a girl named Gu Jinger gave him a watch.

That day was October 16, 2009, and that moment was 6:44 in the morning - all of them appeared on the dial of the black electronic watch, and together with Gu Jinger's shy and timid face, it was unknowingly engraved into Lin Yue's brain.

"So I dreamed of her now..."

"It's because she gave me such a watch?"

Lin Yue looked at the watch lying quietly in his palm, his eyes still confused.

And just then...

"Lin...Class Lin Yue? Are you okay..."

The girl named Gu Jinger suddenly asked in a soft voice.

Then the sounds and pictures around them became complicated in an instant.

Around me was a classmate and boy passing by, and in front of me was the corner of the girl's worried lips. A little further away, the classroom during morning reading was full of sounds of books.

In a trance, Lin Yue seemed to have really returned to the past.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, and what penetrated his nose was the rich fragrance of osmanthus.

The fragrance is the same as it is.

There is also this sound and this scene. I looked at his short girl timidly. The coolness left by the autumn wind between the ends of my hair felt so realistic that it was a bit unremarkable.

It doesn't seem like a memory.

"Uh...wait?!"

Lin Yue suddenly looked at his much tender palm:

Hold it hard, the touch is real and clear, and the nails are painful.

It is true, not a memory, not an illusion.

"Damn, I, I really traveled through time?!"

Lin Yue felt a chill on his back, like falling into an ice cellar.

Until this second, even with the DNA and fingerprint comparison report, he did not fully believe in the so-called time travel.

But at this moment, he just slept on his desk as usual for a while, and then had a dream of recalling his youth...

He really traveled nearly 13 years ago!

"Lin, Lin Yue?" The girl named Gu Jinger was looking at him with concern: "Are you okay?"

"I..." Lin Yue tried hard to calm himself down: "It's okay."

"It's okay?" A sneer suddenly came from behind:

"Little bastard, I think you're having a big deal!"

A ghost approached silently, and then thundered on the ground without warning.

It's as terrible as the head teacher who flashes behind him.

"Hey! Lin Yue! Gu Jing'er!"

"You two don't go to the classroom for morning reading classes. What do you want to do?!"

This sound...is a bit familiar?

Lin Yue looked back and saw a middle-aged man with premature white hair, burly figure and a sinister face standing behind him.

As a nightmare for all students in Class 7, Lin Yue can’t forget this face:

"You are... Teacher Xu?"

Xu Lijun, Lin Yue's junior high school class teacher, English teacher, is known as "King of Hell in the World".

Shakespeare once said that there are 1,000 kinds of teachers in the world, and there are 1,000 kinds of teachers.

Some teachers are gentle, some are harsh, some are irritable, and some are patient.

And Teacher Xu, Xu, is the kind of "good" teacher who is very, very special, and makes students think of it by chance in the world and across the world after 20 years. They still want to fly straight to their hometown immediately and come to the door to slap him hard.

Of course Lin Yue can't forget this bastard.

After "years", Xu Lijun is still as arrogant as "in the past".

I saw him scan Lin Yue and Gu Jinger with his sinister eyes like a murderous machine, and then:

"What's this?!"

Xu Lijun's face darkened and he took away the black electronic watch from Lin Yue's hand.

"Return it, return it to..."

Gu Jinger subconsciously wanted to take back the gift she gave, but she retracted her hand in fear.
