For the first time, I saw the science fiction novel "Dream Control Tokyo", who was still undergraduate, was immediately attracted by the author's talent.

Now, I have seen Tang Jiesheng's new science fiction "Tampered First Love" after graduating from a master's degree. This is different from the suspense feelings of most of her science fiction novels, and "Tampering the First Love" shows a more tender and delicate story. The cold and magnificent human destiny order, with the first love story under the spring cherry blossoms, happened from time to time. At the moment of life and death, a beautiful, light and romantic sci -fi temperament met with readers unexpectedly.

The author uses the agile and gentle strokes to lead the eternal topic of "the situation and choice of people" in science fiction to the micro -micro, emotional, and poetic field, so she awakens the depths of each of us, those bravery Green young age. So science fiction stories are also emotional power. Humanity is another eternal common sense of sympathy for each other.

Looking forward to Tang Jiesheng's more and better science fiction masterpieces.

Under the cherry blossoms, people flow like the sea.

This is the season of spring age. The dusk is gentle and the mountains are bustling.

Girls' small words wearing white skirts and walking side by side with male classmates Wenzhuang. The cherry petals are drifting, and the black hair of young girls is like a beautiful dream.

But Xiao Xi's heart was inexplicably irritable.

Wenzhuang he was wrong today. She murmured in her heart: He has been looking around, what are you looking at? He pulled my hand, why is it so careless?

This is the spring of 2022. They are 15 years old, but they have known each other for 9 years. In the valley of their parents and teachers, they finally pulled their hands carefully and walked through the cherry blossoms of Aoyama and Meihong Twilight. The palms of the two were slightly wet, and their eyes were afraid to look at each other, but they still held their hands. No one let go.

"How can he be so disappointing?" Xiao Ci muttered in his heart, "But, hold hands with me seriously." She lowered her head and tried to hide her girl's heart, and the sour little loss.

But Wenzhuang has been turning her head to look at it, seeing the crowd uneasily, waiting nervously.

Behind them, among the bustling crowd--

Qiao Si was in a casual clothes, pulled the peaked cap, and frowned to observe the two children in front.

"Reporting an agent, the original video of the space -time video is completed, and now it is projected for you." In the hidden headset, the voice of the Agent team of the Time and Space Supervision Bureau was meticulous.

下一秒,乔司眼前的画面被分割成了两部分:左侧是当前时空的画面,小词和温庄在人群中拉着手走着;右侧是原始时空的画面,同样是小词和Wenzhuang walked in the crowd.

But the difference is that in the current picture, Wenzhuang has been looking back. In the original picture, he didn't look back at all!

"Does this constitute the evidence of the case?" Qiao Si asked whispered.

"Insufficient evidence." The sound of the headset was simply: "After 3 minutes and 11 seconds, there will be tourist buses at the foot of the mountain at the foot of the mountain. Hurry up and find sufficient evidence, arrest the Wenzhuang and return to justice. "

In 2032, "Xuyuan Zong Cave" was discovered -this means that humans have achieved time and space crossing at the technical level.

But followed by tens of thousands of time and space smuggles. They traveled through the insect cave back to the past time and space in the way of smuggling, and forcibly changed history, which caused a chaos:

The so -called time and history are the whole of chaos. They are led by the whole body. Any subtle shock may cause a chain response and disturb the fate of hundreds of millions of people.

The temptation of "back to the past" is the result of the taboos of human civilization. Once the smuggling starts, the consequences are unimaginable: those who illegally smuggle, some are speculators. Criminals, they fled and hid in various time and space; there were even some war madmen who had to return to the past to change history ...

Faced with the infinite greed and criminal ambitions of human beings, governments of various countries were forced to unite and set up mysterious institutions -the Space and Space Inspectors. In order to maintain the stability of time and history, the time and space inspection bureau must track each smugglers and return to the past time and space to prevent them from changing their history. The timing is very important. We must capture them to justice before the criminals act, so as to avoid the butterfly effect.

However, the Legislative Yuan was willing to establish the case only after the Time and Space Inspection Bureau obtained sufficient sneak evidence, and the Inspection Bureau had the right to arrest. This set of arrests must be strictly followed, and people must not be directly arrested without evidence.

This program seems to be too complicated, but in fact, there are strict considerations, because people never thought that "crossing" would happen in two ways before the wormhole occurred.

In the novel, there are generally two kinds of perceptual understanding of crossing: "I found that I have become 4 years old again" and "I returned to the past and met my 4 -year -old." In the actual situation, after crossing the wormhole, these two situations were randomly established. In other words, when you cross the past, you may have changed back to a 4 -year -old child, or you may keep your current age, and you will meet yourself at the age of 4; Just like the electronic random selection in the double seam interference experiment through a single seam or double seam.

In other words, before you discover the adult Wenzhuang, you never know whether the youth Wenzhuang is a crossing.

Therefore, before the arrest is implemented, the inspection bureau must have sufficient evidence of smuggling. If not, if you just catch people with suspicion, the people they caught are likely to be the aboriginal people in the past, and the wrong arrest will cause a new round of time and space confusion.

Qiao Si is an agent of this case. He must get evidence of "Wenzhuang is a smuggler" within 3 minutes, filed and arrested Wenzhuang.

Otherwise, Wenzhuang may change history:

Girls Lin Ci, according to history, should die 3 minutes after history -in 2022 cherry blossoms are scattered in spring, the tourist bus turns, but suddenly the brakes fail and hit the girl next to the foot of the foot of the mountain, while Wenzhuang escaped because of buying ice cream to buy ice cream. Live. The reason for the accident was: last night heavy rain, the wet cherry petals were piled on the mountain road, causing tires to slip.

This incident is called "cherry blossom murderous girl incident", which was a sensation ten years ago.

Qiao Si stared nervously at the original picture: 17: 11: 23, they bought ice cream in front of the stalls; 17: 12: 57, they walked to the roadside of the corner, preparing to cross the road and other bus home; 17:13: 15. Lin Ci wants to eat another ice cream, Wenzhuang to buy; 17:14: 34, Wenzhuang bought the ice cream to go back, and at the same time a bus whispered from the corner ...

It is 17:11:23, they just bought ice cream, everything looks exactly the same as the original.

Qiao Si reasoned the plan of Wenzhuang in his heart. The easiest way is to refuse to help Lin Ci to buy the second ice cream and pull her across the road. In this case, he must show his feet in the penultimate 1 minute. In these 1 minute, the inspection bureau was enough to capture Wenzhuang.

But unexpectedly----

17:13:15, "I want to eat another cherry ice cream," the girl looked behind him reluctantly. "It is said that the flowering period of cherry blossoms is only seven days. The next time you want to eat it, you will wait until next year."

"Okay." Wenzhuang patted her head gently, "I'll buy it, you are waiting for me here."

"Hmm!" Lin Ci was happy for an instant, and his eyes laughed into a seam.

Wenzhuang's head walked away without returning, and Li Lin stood at the intersection and licked the ice cream in his hand. Qiao Si couldn't help frowning: the two pictures in front of him were exactly the same. The location of Lin Ci Station is exactly where she will be hit by a bus. There is no difference from the original time and space.

What is Wenzhuang doing? Why does he have no abnormal move? Or ... the juvenile Wenzhuang is not a traveler at all? A series of questions flashed in Qiao Si's mind. He dare not hesitate, and instantly connected another agent:

"Hey, what about the driver's situation?"

"Without any abnormalities, the speed of the bus is exactly the same as 10 years ago, and it will hit the forest at 17:14:34." The sound in the headset was particularly affirmed.

Qiao Si was even more irritable. He stood under the cherry tree and watched Wenzhuang and Lin's words farther and farther. Time clicks, as if open the blood basin on the girl's head.

17:13:34, countdown for 1 minute.

Wenzhuang walked forward, and the white shirt was fluttering; the small words were obediently waiting for the roadside, and the tip of the tongue licked light pink cream.

17:14:04, countdown for 30 seconds.

Wenzhuang stood in front of the ice cream stall and pulled out the mobile phone from the pants pocket to pay; the small word licked the cream, and the squeakness bitten the cone; behind her, the green mountains stood silently, and the bus whistled in the sunset.

17:14:24, countdown for 10 seconds.

Wenzhuang held the ice cream carefully and walked back in the cherry blossoms; the small words peeled the last small conclusions and the small paper pads, threw the sweet cones into the mouth, bitten it with biting it. Squeaks; the bus is close, closer, and the body has a scarlet light in Jinhui.

Qiao Si took a breath. It seemed that this information was wrong. Wihuangzhuang was not a time -space crossing. This beautiful accident was still going towards its ending step by step. He stared at the sunset and mountain wind, and the girl who had a little bit of a paper -looking eyes, the cherry blossoms that were all over the wild ... an inexplicable sadness, poured into the heart of this tough guy.

This is the first time they hold hands, which should have been a beautiful spring.

But Qiao Si just stood there and did nothing. This is his responsibility and justice, he knows. He had to watch the giant monster swallowing the girl's head, and the flesh was blurred.

17:14:28, countdown for 6 seconds.

The scarlet bus is coming soon.

In the sunset, the mountain breeze blown softly, as if sighing.

The teenager still walked slowly in the rain of Sakura, and the girl stood in the shadow of the foothills and played paper. They were separated so far, as if there was no end.

17:14:30, countdown for 4 seconds.

Qiao Si can feel the faint vibration of the bus in the air.

Only the white young girl is still ignorant. Wenzhuang was still slowly walking, and Lin Ci opened his stacking boat again. Qiao Si's eyes were a bit wet.

17:14:32, countdown for 2 seconds.

Lin Ci suddenly turned his head!

Without any signs, she suddenly ran back to the mountain breeze and the sunset. The black hair and white skirts floated in the magnificent cherry rain. Wenzhuang in the distance shows a bright smile!

Both Qiao Si and Wenzhuang were shocked.

No one saw that at the corner of the foothills, an ordinary tourist bus drove over quickly, and the driver on the car even yawned.

Qiao Si stayed there, and he couldn't understand how the whole thing happened. "The task failed." The cold voice of the headworm pulled him back to reality. His ears buzzed: Yes, Wenzhuang did, but the question is, what did he do?

Why, Lin Ci suddenly turned back at that moment?

Who did it? Why is there no abnormality at all?

Heavily doubted in this senior agent's mind, but no one noticed that young people who sold ice cream deep in the cherry blossoms suddenly disappeared.

"Hi! Hi!" Lin Ci finally ran to Wenzhuang, panting.

"What's wrong?" The teenager still held the ice cream and asked her puzzled.

"Don't -don't buy ice cream anymore!" She was still breathing, "You, you see!"

She stretched out her fist tightly, lying in a small piece of wrinkle, sticky small piece of paper. It says:

"Congratulations to the award, so you can exchange cherry ice cream for free with this voucher."

"This is a piece of paper on the egg tube just now!" Her eyes were shining, "Let's go to the big brother who sells ice cream to redeem the prize!"

The teenager was so angry and funny: "You just ran over because of this?"

"Hmm!" She nodded heavily: "I just stacked the paper into a boat, almost didn't find it. Well? What about that big brother?"

Wenzhuang turned his head, but found that there was no one in the small ice cream shop.

"How can he be like this?!" Xiao Wan was so angry, "I just thought he still felt like you ..."

Qiao Si returned to the time and space inspection bureau, replaced the peaked cap and casual clothes, and sighed deeply.

Under the pale light, everyone was silent, and the failed clouds were shrouded in the head of the agent.

"Who can think of Wenzhuang's makeup into a vendor who sells ice cream. He did not do anything to the driver and did not appear in person. He just used a small piece of paper on an ice cream to completely change the fate of the girl's death 10 years ago ... "

"It's not that we are too careless, but how to be thought of such a detailed loophole? Wen Zhuang seems to have planned for many years ..."

Someone complained, but closed his mouth under Qiao Si's cold face.

Obviously, the criminals cheated the eyes of all the inspectors and perfectly completed the tampering of time and space.

"Immediately arrest Wenzhuang!" Qiao Si ordered.

The red warning is bright, and the green curve spreads on the screen. It is the future time and space of artificial intelligence simulated. The countless butterfly effects, the sudden changes in the fate of countless people are accumulating from 10 years ago ...

On the bus home, the two were sitting side by side, watching the stars rising on the Blue Sky.

"Hey, I want to ask you one thing." Xiaoying lowered his head and said.

"Um?"

"When holding hands, why do you keep looking around?" She finally couldn't help it, vomiting the grievances in her heart.

"Ah, no." The teenager was at a loss. "That's because ... a middle -aged man in a peaked cap behind me seemed to be staring at us. I'm afraid that it is my uncle."

"Ah?" Xiaoya widened his eyes: "Will he tell your father about this?"

"It is estimated." Wenzhuang nodded, "I'm ready to be beaten."

"Stupid." She said, "I know I will be found, why not let go quickly?"

Under the slightly cold luminous light, the teenager lowered his head:

"Even if I know it is found, I still don't want to loosen your hand."

Just as 10 years later, even if he was discovered, he would go against tens of millions of people and endless time, and came to save you in the spring day of cherry blossoms like a red cloud.
