Chapter 4 Unknown letter
After eating in the cafeteria, Li Yang returned to his dormitory. Following the direction in his memory, Li Yang returned to Yanyuan, which is the dormitory campus where undergraduate students mainly live.
Li Yang's dormitory is in Building 618, Building 16, Yanyuan, and there is no elevator in the dormitory building. The thought of climbing to the sixth floor makes Li Yang almost cry.
"Hey, let's climb up. It's only the sixth floor. Once you go up there, you won't be able to get back down today." Li Yang could only comfort his young mind in this way.
When Li Yang panted and climbed to the sixth floor and walked to the door of his dormitory, he happened to meet a person walking out of Li Yang's dormitory.
When Li Yang saw the man's face, he recognized him as the dean of his dormitory, named Yan Chong, a top student in the philosophy department.
Yan Chong saw the gossipy look on Li Yang's face and said, "Hey, Li Yang, you are back. Why is there a gift box on your table? It seems to be the kind given by girls!"
"Huh? Gift box? When was it given? Why didn't I know?" Li Yang answered Yan Chong's words with a hint of confusion.
Yan Chong said: "Ah, don't you know? After I returned to the dormitory, I saw a gift box on your desk. I thought you knew it? Then go in and take a look. Maybe it was given by the school girl you have a crush on.
Woolen cloth."
Hearing this, Li Yang felt a little confused, so he said to Yan Chong: "Okay, I'll go in and take a look. By the way, do you have classes when you go out now?"
"No class, I just played a game before, the Three-Body Game that I told you about. There is an offline party for Three-Body game players tonight. I am going to attend the party. By the way, do you want to go with me? I can wait for you.
.”
Hearing Yan Chong's words, Li Yang instantly became energetic. After thinking for a while, he said to Yan Chong, "I won't go. I just finished class and want to take a rest. If you want to go, you can go."
Yan Chong replied: "Okay, I'll go then. Don't leave the door open for me tonight, I probably won't come back." After saying that, Yan Chong went downstairs.
"okay."
Li Yang walked into the dormitory. There was currently no one else in the dormitory. Looking at the slightly old four-person dormitory and the date of May 23, 2006 on the calendar posted at the door, some memories suddenly came to mind.
Before time travel, he was also a college student. He was just a junior at the School of Humanities of Jiaotong University in 2019. Unexpectedly, he traveled to Blue Star and became a student of Northern Star University. Although the current time is equivalent to that
The year 2006 for the world.
"Huh? 2006? I remember that Yang Dong committed suicide in 2007, which means that there is less than a year left or that Yang Dong will commit suicide next year. And Yang Dong's suicide means that Eto has truly surfaced, and the three-body
Begin to be known by Earth's leaders and begin to make corresponding plans."
"Does that also mean that sophons have arrived on the earth at this time and locked down the basic scientific research on the earth? Therefore, the earth now has been completely exposed to the Trisolaran people's vision." Thinking of this, Li Yang felt a little nervous.
I don't have much time left to operate.
Hey, Li Yang sighed and saw the gift box on the table, then touched the gift box with one hand and sat on his stool.
Li Yang looked at the gift box, which was dark on all sides and covered with black and white stripes on the lid. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Li Yang thought to himself, "Who can give me something? Girls, it's impossible. Besides, the gifts given by girls can't be like this. Who could it be?"
"Forget it, don't care, open it and take a look, you are all reborn. Why are you afraid of this?"
So Li Yang put his hands on both sides of the gift box and carefully opened the lid of the gift box. Slowly, the contents of the gift box gradually revealed their true colors. It turned out that the gift box contained CDs and a letter.
Li Yang felt relieved when he saw the whole picture in the gift box. Then he put down the lid of the gift box in his hand and picked up the CD. He looked at it and saw that there were no words or logos on the CD.
Li Yang thought to himself, "Then we can only get some clues from this letter."
So, Li Yang picked up the letter placed at the bottom of the gift box and looked at it from all directions. There was no difference, except that the envelope said "Hello Li Yang!" in large characters.
At this time, Li Yang didn't have any doubts. He picked up the knife lying next to the table, opened the envelope, took out the letter, and read it word by word.
But the content of the letter is this...
"Dear son:
Hello!
When you receive this gift box, you may have doubts and confusion, which is normal. Forgive me for not saying hello to you in advance, but I decided to give you this gift box privately. In fact, the CD in the gift box contains
The good times we had as a family and some information. Since your mother passed away, I have taken care of you growing up alone.
But it's a pity that I am not a qualified father. I always want to give you what I think are the best ideas, best things, and best choices, but I ignore your feelings. I'm sorry, and
After you entered high school, in order to study astrophysics, I focused more time and energy on research, and I cared less about you. This may be the reason why you rebelled and chose a major you didn't like.
Facts have proved that dad is a coward. A failed dad does not have the courage to face you and the world.
I have spent nearly ten years studying the basic rules of astrophysics, but unfortunately I have found nothing so far. I have not only wasted the time that could have accompanied your growth, but also wasted many resources given to me by the country.
I'm sorry for you, and I'm sorry for this country. When you read this letter, Dad, I have already left. I am too cowardly to face the reality of failure. I hope you can forgive me.
The information on the CD is my life’s experience in astrophysics research. There are two copies in total. The other copy was given to my colleague Yang Dong.
I am not giving this to you, Dad. I want you to study astrophysics. There is nothing left to study. I just hope you understand that Dad’s life was not wasted.
After I leave, you will be the only one left at home. I hope you can be strong, I hope you can live well, and I hope you can pursue your freedom and dreams.
Son, daddy is sorry for you...
Love you dad”
After reading the letter, Li Yang couldn't accept it, even if he was reborn, even if he had never met his father, even if...
But the remaining memories still made him a little sad. But soon, Li Yang cheered up again, and Li Yang thought of a lot.
The first is to go to the place where his father works and bury his father. Secondly, Li Yang believes that "his father is an astrophysicist and has not done any breakthrough research for a long time, so he chose to commit suicide. Sophon is now locking down the Blue Star."
Basic scientific research is done.”
"My father committed suicide, so the time of Yang Dong's tomb in the beginning of The Three-Body Problem is not far away, which means that Yang Dong is about to commit suicide, so in the process Yang Dong will discover the identity of the leader of Ye Wenjie's ETO organization."
