Object, object!

What are you doing, do you know that there is a movie that a lot of people mentioned recently... I watched it, and I think you will like it; huh (sigh)... I don't know why when the lights in the theater are dark, I think you are nearby.Keep Xi Fei, when we meet in the future, we will know whether you and I have been to the same place at the same time

Some people say that the world is so small, we have never encountered such an explanation? (laughs) I looked out the window and felt that the world was so big.If you really meet me, I hope you will meet me for a minute. I have a lot of things I want to tell you, but I don’t know what to say; but luckily, I have never met you.

I want you to know that in this world, there is a person who cares for you and waits for you; he has been to the same place with you, liked the same movie, laughed at the same place of laughter, shouted at the same place of tears, and at the same place Do you think about where you are...Actually, is there such a person, is there such a thing at all...

↑↑↑ (The above paragraph is the narration in Cantonese, the title of the song: One Plus One, the narration is read by Eason Chan)

In fact, I originally planned to write the story of Peng Yun and Gabe separately. When I listened to this song, I really wanted to write such a story, a story about searching in the dark. Weakly make up a special episode.

Peng Yun has always felt that she is a good baby, always obediently doing things at the age when she should do things, except for the small exception of sexual orientation.

As a literary young woman who is not literary, Peng Yun has always stuck to her little persistence. She always feels that she is looking for someone waiting for someone who has been to the same place as her, liked the same movie, and In the movie, I laugh at a scene, cry at the same scene, and when I do these things, I wonder if there is such a person in this world who wonders if there is such a person who is also doing these things.

Before finding this person, Peng Yun had been nympho to many people, but she was really a nympho, she had never been tempted.

Until, that day, I met Gabe in a Chinese literature exchange group.

Generally speaking, the Chinese literature exchange groups are all young women in literature and art, either majoring in literature, or those who really love Chinese literature. Peng Yun is the first type, and Gabe is the second type.It is not uncommon to say that the second type is not uncommon, but what is rare is that Gabe is a native French Chinese who has never been to China. With his own love, he translates Chinese in French in a completely non-Chinese environment. She loves her Chinese literature in a brutal way.

At that time, Peng Yun didn't know. After all, a little transparent like Gabe didn't bubble up at all. After everyone finished swiping the screen, she was still talking about what she said before translating.

What really brought Gabe into Peng Yun’s sight was Peng Yun’s senior year, working as an intern editor on a literary website. At that time, the website launched a call for essays to return to the Han and Tang Dynasties. Peng Yun poured water into the group, and everyone started discussing it. The strange woman of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

Everyone expressed their opinions, Peng Yun collected materials while pouring water, and when everyone died down, it was almost early morning, and Peng Yun was about to turn off the phone, so she liked to see a strange number poke her.

At first glance, it is the account in the literature group, the net name is Gabe, and the introduction is a bunch of excerpts of ancient poems.

Peng Yun added her easily, and the girl poked her right away.

Gabe: Hello, can you send me a copy of what everyone discussed tonight?If you have all recorded.

I don't rhyme: Yes, but my collection is rather messy and I haven't organized it systematically.

Gabe: It’s okay, maybe you can send it to me after you sort it out, that’s fine too.

I don't rhyme: OK, how about I send you the material, organize it together, and exchange ideas later.

Gabe: Ah... that's fine, but I'm slow in sorting out, and there will be some words that I can't understand.

I don't rhyme: how come, it's all very vernacular.

Gabe: My Chinese is not very good. Can I ask you if I don't understand?

I don't rhyme: Yo... a returnee who went out since childhood?

Gabe: No, no, I'm French, but I liked Chinese language and literature since childhood.

I don't rhyme: 66666, I'm still a foreign friend after a long time, please accept my knee...

Gabe: Knee?Can this be a gift in the old saying?

I don't rhyme: No...it can be a gift in modern Netspeak →→

Gabe: Then I can't accept your gift, I don't get rewarded for nothing...

I don't rhyme: Not bad, you know that.

Gabe: I don’t know much. There are Chinese students in the school, but they don’t like to speak Chinese. They all say they want to learn French from me.

I don't rhyme: Hahahaha, touch your head.

I don't rhyme: It's okay, you can ask me if you don't understand.

Gabe: Okay, you're such a nice guy.

I don't rhyme: Don't, just give me a good person card if you disagree.

Gabe: Good guy card?Is it a title?Or a card?

I don't rhyme: is a small plaque.

Gabe: I know about plaques, but ancient emperors or officials should not have the right to issue plaques. I can’t do that.

……

That night, Gabe, a novice in Chinese language and literature, and Peng Yun, a big fool, chatted all night without knowing it, but neither of them wanted to stop. Gabe didn't understand, so he would ask a lot of cute questions. These questions were actually thought of by Peng Yun when she didn't understand.

Extending from Chinese language and literature, when the two talked about traveling, Gabe said that he had been to a very remote town, and Peng Yun also said that he had also been to a very remote town. When the two talked about it, they found that they were the same A place, a small place in the most arctic circle of Russia.

And the two people did the same silly action in front of the same inconspicuous sign on the same day, the same place, and the same hour a year apart.

Speaking of their favorite literary works, both of them also like the collection of ancient Greek tragedies, and they laughed and cried for the ancient Greek tragedy writer Aeschylus who was killed by a tortoise.

Speaking of favorite songs, both of them agree that they like songs with changed ancient poems, such as Shui Tiao Ge Tou, Qing Ping Tune...

The more we talked, the two people found that they really fit each other, the collision of souls, the friction of spirit...

At the end of that chat, at almost the same time, Peng Yun was dragged out for dinner by her family, and Gabe was called by her mentor to run some errands. It was really an unparalleled coincidence.

After that day, the two of them were almost completely immersed in the Internet, enjoying this cross-border and cross-cultural spiritual communication. Although Gabe could read and understand Chinese, he was always slow to type or speak. The two talked about the excitement Sometimes, the expression is often unable to keep up with the emotions. After being excited for a long time, the acquaintance smiles helplessly.

The two talked for more than a month. On that day, when the group talked about Mian Ji, the two basically responded in the same way: Let's meet.

Gabe: Let's meet, you come to Paris or I go to China to find you.

I don't rhyme: let's meet, you come to G city or I go to France to find you.

……

After speaking, both of them laughed. In the end, Peng Yun went to France, because Gabe said that she would take her to the Louvre, and next time, let Peng Yun take her to see the Forbidden City Museum in Beijing.

Both of them were full of expectations. Peng Yun quickly applied for a visa, and Gabe booked her accommodation. The two of them counted down every day to the moment when they saw each other.

……

Unfortunately, in the end, Gabe did not wait for Peng Yun. She waited at the airport for a day according to the flight number left by Peng Yun, and went to the airline counter to confirm that the plane was not delayed or malfunctioned, but in the passenger list, there was no one named Peng Yun's traveler.

Gabe thought maybe Peng Yun missed the plane, so she left a message on Peng Yun's online communication, made phone calls, and sent emails but there was no reply. She panicked and wondered if something happened to Peng Yun.

While waiting for her at the hotel she had booked, she was thinking of a way. She sought help in the group they knew, but what Peng Yun left was only a vest, and no one knew her real situation.

Gabe never thought that Peng Yun would be a liar, so she had no choice but to go to the Chinese embassy in Paris for help, but she only knew Peng Yun's name, and she didn't have any specific information other than the date of birth. The embassy could only do nothing to help .

Gabe dialed the domestic police|police through an international long-distance call, but the reply was the same.

I can't find it... I can't find it anyway... No matter how many messages she left on the Internet, how many phone calls she made, how many emails she sent, it was as if Peng Yun had disappeared.

Gabe persisted in guarding in Paris, and finally her family came to pick her up.

After Gabe went back to school, she has been waiting for Peng Yun's reply on the Internet, and then, half a month later, Peng Yun replied, she said, all this is a joke, sorry, let her be serious.

This is not Peng Yun's tone, Gabe thought something happened to her, she told Peng Yun, don't worry, she can understand, if you miss two people this time, next time, she can come to China to find her.

However, Peng Yun just said indifferently that the game was over, and Gabe said that she didn't believe it was a game.

Then, Peng Yun opened the video, with a familiar face and a cold and heart-wrenching tone, she said, "Gabe, the game is over."

Gabe was stunned, she felt that the world was dark all of a sudden, why was it just a game in the end that they agreed to fly together with each other.

She looked at Peng Yun, confirmed with her over and over again, and said: This is not a game, is it?

In the end, what she got was Peng Yun's denials again and again, and then Peng Yun deleted her contact information. After the message she sent was returned, Gabe cried, crying heartbreakingly... Her email address to Peng Yun Sent an email: inside it was her handwritten Chinese, two full pages of A4 paper, liar liar liar liar liar...

The author has something to say:

Well, it’s better to make up a weak episode, it’s written now... probably, there will be a little bug~~~
