32 days

Yi Alan asked in surprise, "Why?"

"I went to the hospital on the second day when the world returned to normal," Zhou Yan'an said slowly, with a little shame on his face, "It was June 6, which may have missed the best time, and she has already been discharged from the hospital. "

Yi Alan noticed Zhou Yanan's subtle expression.Of course he no longer agrees with the many explanations of the psychiatrist Tian Lu, but he agrees that Zhou Yan'an is actually in line with the unified aesthetics of men, but that was on the 32nd.But now, Zhou Yan'an is more like a living person than a symbol. He will doubt himself, will not be decisive, and will be in a dilemma.It was out of distrust of himself that Zhou Yan'an introspected for a whole day on the existence of the 32nd before deciding to seek answers from the outside world.

Of course, he is still much braver than Yi Alan. He is also a human being, but the gap is still huge.

"It may be due to other reasons that I did not find Liang Fei." Zhou Yan'an added, "I searched for each of the obstetric buildings on those floors. I cannot guarantee that there are no omissions. The nurses in the hospital also have special professional ethics. Willing to disclose Liang Fei's information to me."

Yi Alan said: "Why don't I ask my mother? I remember that she seems to have a good relationship with a female director of the obstetrics department."

Zhou Yanan looked at him, his eyes seemed to say, why don't you act sooner because of this relationship?

Yi Alan laughed twice, and quickly took out her mobile phone to call her mother.

Yue Ximing was not undergoing an operation, so he quickly connected the phone: "Alan? Why did you call me during work? Something happened at home?"

"No." Yi Alan said, "Mom, I want to ask you about a hospital. There should be a woman named Liang Fei in the obstetrics and gynecology department. She probably gave birth in early June. I want to know something about her. There is also contact information..."

"Liang Fei? Do you know him? Who?"

"Ask for a friend, um... It involves some privacy, so I can't tell you in detail."

Over there Yue Ximing smiled: "Then the person you are looking for is also her privacy."

"This..." Yi Alan was speechless for a while.

"Okay, let me ask for you. But let me tell you in advance, if it violates the hospital rules, I won't say a word to you. "

"That's great, Mom, thank you! Remember it's Liang Fei, Fei with the prefix rain."

Yi Alan hung up the phone and smiled at Zhou Yan'an; "wait for the news."

Zhou Yan'an smiled: "After 32 days, you should be very happy to find that your mother is fine." He was deeply impressed by Yi Alan's distraught appearance.

"It's very happy." Yi Alan said, but recently he and his mother didn't get along well.

Yi Alan felt that the crux of the matter lay in the police's questioning of the reason why he called his uncle on the day his uncle died.Yue Ximing is not a policeman who doesn't understand their family's internal situation. He knows that Yi Alan's work does not need Yi Xiaoshan's introduction anyway, and Yi Alan's casual remarks will only make Yue Ximing suspicious.

But Yue Ximing didn't take the initiative to ask, but focused on him carefully, trying to secretly find out the reason why Yi Alan contacted his father's relatives abnormally.This kind of soft but pervasive observation almost accompanied Yi Alan from childhood to adulthood.He is now feeling more and more unbearable.

However, Yi Alan thought about it carefully, even if his mother took the initiative to ask, what answer could he give?After all, he himself didn't understand what was going on.

After a while, Yue Ximing called back.

"Alan, I asked." Yue Ximing's tone was serious, "Liang Fei's matter is very special and sensitive. I told you not to make it public. Liang Fei's prenatal examination has been normal, and all indicators of the fetus are normal. It was stable, but the baby was stillborn. The hospital suspected that it was an accident during the delivery process that caused suffocation. The problem was that the doctors and nurses who delivered the baby believed that there was no problem with their operation, and Liang Fei's delivery should have been smooth. An autopsy of the fetus later confirmed that there were no omissions in the prenatal examination, and the fetus had no congenital problems. Liang Fei was hit hard by this and made a big fuss in the newborn care center. The obstetrics and gynecology department is still in contact with Liang Fei and her family members, hoping to negotiate privately , resolve this matter peacefully.”

Yi Alan was stunned for a long time.

Zhou Yan'an was drinking coffee, waiting for Yi Alan to finish listening before he could relay the news to him. He noticed something unusual and looked up at Yi Alan.

Yi Alan asked after a long while, "Mom, do you have Liang Fei's contact information?"

"Sorry son, I don't have one. The obstetrics and gynecology department can't casually disclose Liang Fei's contact information to me. It involves the reputation of the hospital."

After Yi Alan hung up the phone, she said to Zhou Yan'an, "The baby Liang Fei gave birth to is stillborn."

Zhou Yanan was also silent.

"I've clearly heard that baby's cry, it was very loud." Yi Alan said softly, shaking her head, a little hard to accept, "You said that the child's death...has something to do with the 32nd?"

"I don't know." Zhou Yan'an's voice was no longer crisp, it seemed to be floating and weak.

Yi Alan hesitated for a moment, then said: "There is one more thing I didn't have time to tell you, I met my uncle on the morning of the 32nd, but after going back to June 6st, I received the news that my uncle died suddenly. "

Zhou Yan'an raised her head abruptly, staring closely at Yi Alan.

They couldn't believe it was a coincidence. The 32nd not only existed, it may even have done real harm.

Yi Alan felt a boundless cold spread between them.

It was approaching dusk at this moment, and the setting sun at the beginning of summer illuminated the roof extraordinarily warmly, coating the wooden floor with a golden halo.But the shadows of the 32nd are like monsters with tentacles, even if they escape to reality, they are still closely followed.

Perhaps it is wrong to seek the truth.

Yi Alan sadly wanted to deceive herself.

On the other side of this big city with a population of tens of millions, there are dozens of residential buildings with the same appearance and no personality. In one of the ordinary houses, a man who just got off work pushed open the door with a tired expression.

He saw that there were more baby boy clothes in the house.

He helplessly and heartbrokenly shouted: "Beifei."

Liang Fei raised her head from the sofa to look at her husband Yu Xiaotian: "Honey, have you found Xiaohan?"

His parents were also on the side, they could only take care of Liang Fei's body, and they had no way to stop her nagging behavior.

Yu Xiaotian almost lost his patience: "Feifei! We never had Xiaohan! That fetus died before it was born!"

Liang Fei didn't look at him, and stubbornly arranged the fancy clothes: "The hospital lied to us. I heard that Xiaohan cried so loudly. He fed Xiaohan with colostrum. He is small, weighs seven catties, and has skin. Wrinkled, not white, very little hair..."

Yu Xiaotian's mother couldn't help but said: "Newly born children all look like this."

Yu Xiaotian sat down heavily: "Feifei, we are not uneducated people, don't make trouble for no reason, we have also asked our respective doctor friends about the various certificates given by the hospital, and they said that the hospital has no obvious responsibility, The child did die before it was born. Besides, the hospital decided to compensate us out of humanitarianism. Why don’t you accept the fact?”

Liang Fei was still talking to herself: "I was delivered by two big boys. They said that the world is ending. You, the doctor, many people in the world have disappeared. Now that I think about it, those are all their lies. They may cooperate with black people in the hospital, deliberately deceive me, and then abduct my child..."

Yu Xiaotian wiped his face and said with determination: "Beifei, I contacted a psychologist for you."

Liang Fei looked at him straight, with a withered expression on his face, but firm as a rock: "Do you think I'm crazy?"

"I……"

Holding the ironed baby clothes, Liang Fei got up and went back to the room: "I will find Xiaohan."

Yi Alan and Zhou Yan'an exchanged contact information, and then separated with heavy hearts.

The existence of the 32nd is like a storm that doesn't know the law. It came in a hurry and caused a mess, and now I don't know where it went.

What it is, whether it will come back, what it took away, and what it left behind are all mysteries that feel powerless when you think about it.

Yi Alan thought of the phenomenon of blocking information on the 32nd on the Internet. He did a little test and found that the blocking keyword was "32nd" in various languages ​​and expressions.He may be able to bypass these keywords and post relevant posts.

But in this way, if people who have the same experience as him don't search for keywords, how can they see his posts in the vast ocean of the Internet?

Besides, he has already found Zhou Yan'an, and he and Zhou Yan'an can discuss many things.

Yi Alan also gave up searching for more parties on the 32nd on the Internet.

Regarding shielding, Yi Alan thought a lot about it later. This is a shielding network covering the global Internet, which is definitely not something simple hackers can do.After his preliminary tests, the major search engines could not find relevant information at all, and the major forums were also blocked for 32 days. Perhaps some niche and fringe servers carried software that would not be affected, but that would not affect the overall situation at all.

It’s not enough to achieve large-scale blocking, and the search engine and social software companies have to be unaware of it.Even if you hijack a supercomputer, you can't do anything, maybe you have to use a quantum computer.

Joker is a very powerful hacker. It is true that the quantum computer was not guarded during the 32 days, but Yi Alan still did not think that Joker could break the physical isolation of the quantum computer and obtain the access key within a day.

Yi Alan sent all his thoughts to Zhou Yanan.

Zhou Yanan replied: Have you ever thought that this is actually a cooperation at the national level?

If the countries of the world unite to shield the 32nd, it will not be difficult to do.But the question is, why would they do it?

Still no solution.

Yi Alan and Zhou Yan'an often exchanged some fragmented ideas and guessed at various levels. Although there was no way to find the answer, it was a kind of comfort to discuss it with another person who shared the same experience. Killed by that gigantic confusion.

When Yi Alan sent messages to Zhou Yan'an, she deliberately chose when she was alone in the room, but Zhou Yan'an's timing of replying was not so winking.

Often Yi Alan was eating in the living room, and her phone would ding-dong several times in a row.At this time, grandma and mother will look at him.

Grandma is also a poor person. Although Yue Ximing is a kind daughter-in-law and Yi Alan is a filial grandson, she knows that she is dependent on others. Even though she often feels so sad for the two lost sons at night that she can't sleep, she still tries hard not to give others a hand during the day. Tim Du, making jokes that are a bit out of place with this family she is not familiar with.

Grandma smiled and asked: "Is your girlfriend looking for you? I see you are always holding your phone at home these days."

At first, Yi Alan evaded and said that it was his ex-colleague who asked him questions left over from work, but then he was afraid that his mother would think too much, and he seemed guilty of leaving his mobile phone in the bedroom, which was inconsistent with his previous habits (at this time, he had tasted all kinds of problems in the past). It’s a bitter fruit, he always carries his mobile phone with him all the time (not because he is obsessed with mobile phones, but because he can pretend to swipe his mobile phone to vaguely pass at some embarrassing moments), so he simply turned on the mute.

As a result, once Yue Ximing was at the dinner table and said to send him a funny picture.

Yi Alan went to check the phone.

Yue Ximing asked, "Why is the phone on silent?"

Yi Alan's heart skipped a beat: "I think it's quite noisy, and I'm not working anyway, and there's no news that I can't miss, so I just shut it down."

Yi Alan finished his meal indifferently, and returned to the room. As soon as the door was closed, his face collapsed.It was hard for him to breathe.

He sometimes wonders if he is being too sensitive.

Normal mother-child relationship cannot avoid talking about privacy issues such as feelings. Many mothers are very concerned about the important or unimportant details of their children. Aren’t there many parents on the Internet who control their children’s social profiles?Perhaps he shouldn't regard his mother's concern as supervision, and communication as offense and defense.
