Tonight, every house in Yu'an City is brightly lit, and a peaceful atmosphere envelopes the whole city. Pedestrians on the road, everyone is wearing new clothes, their faces are full of joy, and the whole street is filled with laughter and laughter.
Why is tonight so festive? It’s because tonight is China’s annual New Year’s Eve.
But in an ordinary community in the city, on the roof of a building, there was an ordinary-looking, neatly dressed young man, whose expression was somewhat incompatible with the festive atmosphere around him.
This young man is twenty-three years old and his name is Lin Xu.
Lin Xu stared at the mobile phone in his hand, looking at the screen without any signal, with a trace of worry, a trace of doubt, and a trace of uneasiness on his face.
Lin Xu sighed, "Well, since a month ago, the news reported that there was strong electromagnetic interference, causing communication difficulties. It was said that it could be solved as soon as possible. Please rest assured. But a month has passed, not only has there been no improvement, but... stronger."
"Yesterday when I came to the roof of this building, I could barely get a signal on my mobile phone, but tonight there is no signal at all. I don't know how long this situation will last!"
Lin Xu put away his mobile phone and faintly heard the sound of laughter coming from downstairs. He couldn't help but shook his head slightly, "No matter what happens, during this New Year's Day, it is still festive."
"In a month, I'm afraid everyone has become accustomed to it. Although there is strong electromagnetic interference, it only affects mobile phone communications. It has not changed much in normal people's lives!"
Lin Xu looked at the family reunited near the building and couldn't help but think of his sister who was far away in Yanjing, "Lin Ya, I don't know how you are doing?"
Thinking of this, Lin Xu's face became more worried.
Lin Xu was originally an orphan in an orphanage. Lin Ya was not Lin Xu's biological sister. They just had a good relationship in the orphanage. When Lin Xu was young, he would go out to work every year near the end of the year to earn some money. Money buys some gifts for Lin Ya.
In order for Lin Ya to go to a good school, Lin Xu went out to work early to earn money. With the help of some kind people, Lin Ya had the opportunity to go to school.
Lin Ya was also very ambitious. Ever since she went to school, her academic performance had always been among the best. She even got into Yanjing, a famous university in Kyoto, which became Lin Xu's pride.
Just when Lin Xu was thinking a lot, time came to zero unknowingly, and the silver moon above his head turned into blood red in an instant.
A piece of red moonlight scattered down, and the scenery in front of him was covered with a layer of red gauze. In shock, Lin Xu came back to his senses, "Huh? Why did the scenery turn red? Could it be that he was hallucinating. "
Lin Xu couldn't help but rub his eyes with his hands. When he opened them, his eyes were still the same as before. He couldn't help but look around to find the root cause. In the corner of his eye, Lin Xu noticed the red light coming from above. He looked up at the sky with confusion, and a blood moon came into view.
Lin Xu's originally sad face instantly turned into one of surprise, and he stared intently at the blood-red moon above his head, "What is this? Is it some astronomical phenomenon? I haven't heard of it before?"
Just when Lin Xu was confused, the sound of firecrackers could be heard in his ears. Although he was in the city, the relevant departments still relaxed the policy. Each community set up a specific location to set off firecrackers to celebrate. During the Spring Festival, the quantity that each household can purchase is subject to certain restrictions, and relevant personnel are also responsible for maintenance.
People were also surprised by the blood moon that appeared in the sky, and then started setting off firecrackers to celebrate. Some even said that this was an unprecedented celestial spectacle. People's ability to accept new things has obviously improved a lot.
The red moonlight added a touch of strange artistic conception, and some poets were so enthusiastic about poetry that their masterpieces appeared on the paper.
But for everyone in the east, the shining sun in the west has also turned blood red, but they have no idea.
Lin Xu turned a deaf ear to the sound of firecrackers beside his ears and stared at the blood moon without blinking, as if he had entered another world.
Lin Xu's eyes staring at the moon suddenly shrank, and a red light flew towards him. He felt restless in his heart and wanted to avoid it, but his body seemed motionless as if someone had cast a body-fixing technique, just like his soul and his soul. The body is generally separated.
When he was at a loss, the red light hit Lin Xu's forehead, causing severe pain. The unspeakable pain filled Lin Xu's whole mind, as if it was about to explode.
Lin Xu lay on the roof with his head in his arms, rolling back and forth, screaming at the top of his lungs. His voice was hoarse and he couldn't feel anything. A blood-colored eye appeared inexplicably between his eyebrows, glowing with a faint red glow.
Because of the loud sound of firecrackers downstairs, no one noticed anything strange about Lin Xu.
Five minutes, ten minutes, and twenty minutes passed, and the severe pain in Lin Xu's mind did not weaken at all. Lin Xu was covered in cold sweat, and the down jacket he was wearing was already soaked through.
At this moment, Lin Xu's right eye glowed with a faint blue light, while his left eye glowed with a faint purple light, while the red light in the bloody eyes between his eyebrows weakened a bit.
For thirty minutes, blue light bloomed in the right eye and purple light shone in the left eye, but no one noticed these phenomena.
Lin Xu's changes were not only that, his body also underwent a lot of changes. His original height of 170 centimeters increased by 10 centimeters, and the clothes he wore were obviously two sizes too small.
For forty minutes, the blue light in the right eye and the purple light in the left eye gradually weakened, and the red light between the eyebrows also became dimmer.
Fifty minutes later, the blood glow between the eyebrows completely disappeared, and the bloody eye that appeared slowly closed. Only a red mark appeared on Lin Xu's eyebrows. The purple glow in the left eye completely disappeared, and there was a trace of blue glow in the right eye.
Sixty minutes later, the blue light in his right eye gradually faded away. Lin Xu gradually calmed down, and the severe pain in his mind disappeared at this time.
Lin Xu breathed heavily, and stood up reluctantly. He stared blankly at the blood moon in the sky. If you look carefully at Lin Xu's right eye, you can see that Lin Xu's right eye has many black pupils. A touch of blue.
"Is what I just experienced true or false?"
At this time, Lin Xu felt that his body was extremely comfortable, and the thoughts in his mind felt clearer. Not only did the severe pain have no sequelae, but it actually made him feel better. Lin Xu could not describe the feeling of pleasure in words.
If Lin Xu didn't still have some sense, he would have groaned.
After moving his body a little, Lin Xu felt some restrictions on his movements. Then he realized that the clothes he was wearing were too small. He thought to himself, "Damn, what's going on? Why did your body suddenly grow so much?"
After checking his body again, Lin Xu confirmed that he had indeed grown taller. "It seems that everything that just happened is true. What happened just now?"
Lin Xu was confused by the unknown things that happened to his body, and felt uneasy in his heart.
Just when Lin Xu's thoughts were changing, a light rain gradually began to fall in the sky. It was not very accurate to say that it was rain, just because the rain was red.
The red rain fell on Lin Xu. The cold rain made Lin Xu calm down a lot. "Why is it raining in this winter? It's still red."
The red rain made Lin Xu feel extremely uneasy. Looking at the blood-red moon again, Lin Xu's heart suddenly accelerated and a lingering feeling of fear lingered in his heart.
"What the hell is going on? Something big is going to happen, right?"
Lin Xu looked away, covered his chest, and quickly returned to the building. When his eyes no longer stayed on the blood moon in the sky, Lin Xu's heart palpitations gradually disappeared.
Lin Xu rents in this building, and it's on the top floor, 801.
When Lin Xu returned home, he glanced at the fat man who was wearing a headset and playing games. He didn't say hello to him and walked towards his room with his thoughts on his mind.
The fat man who was sitting on a chair playing games faintly heard the sound of the door being opened. He looked back and didn't notice the change in Lin Xu at the first time. He turned around and asked, "Xiao Xuzi, tonight Why are you back so late?"
Lin Xu didn't seem to hear the fat man's question, but opened the door of his room alone and walked in.
Seeing that he didn't get a response, the fat man turned his head and looked over again, and couldn't help but say, "Xiao Xuzi!"
Lin Xu still didn't give any reaction, but closed the door smoothly.
The fat man frowned slightly, "What's wrong with Xiao Xuzi? I've never seen him like this! Did something happen to him?"
The fat man locked his eyes on the door and murmured, "Xiao Xuzi's clothes seem to be a lot smaller. What's going on?"
When the fat man was puzzled, two English words came from the headset, ace, defeat, and the sound of abuse from his teammates.
The fat man looked at the word failure displayed on the computer screen and said, "Damn! I lost again! I won't play anymore. I'm not in good condition today!"
The fat man took off the headset, thought for a moment, then pushed open Lin Xu's door and walked in. He saw Lin Xu wearing clothes one size smaller, barefoot, rummaging for something in the closet.
With a surprised look on his face, the fat man came to Lin Xu's side, patted Lin Xu's shoulder gently, and shouted, "Xiao Xuzi, what happened to you?"
Lin Xu felt someone taking a picture of him, so he rummaged around again, stood up with a sigh, and said, "Fat brother, you've seen it too, I've grown taller and I don't have any suitable clothes anymore!"
The fat brother Lin Xu talks about is named Zheng Fu. He is three years older than Lin Xu. He and Lin Xu are both employees of the same moving company. In order to save money, Lin Xu and Zheng Fu chose to live together. Because they lived together for a long time, Zheng Fu took care of the younger Lin Xu, and Lin Xu was also grateful to Zheng Fu.
Zheng Fu looked at Lin Xu, who was half a head taller than him, and couldn't help but said in surprise, "Xiao Xuzi, why have you suddenly grown so tall, and what's with that red mark between your eyebrows!"
If Zheng Fu hadn't been very familiar with the person in front of him, he might not have dared to confirm that the handsome young man standing in front of him was the Lin Xu he knew.
Today's Lin Xu looks a bit more handsome than before, and the red mark between his eyebrows makes people's eyes brighter.
Lin Xu didn't know how to answer for a moment. After thinking for a moment, he simply told Zheng Fu the truth.
Zheng Fu's face was full of weirdness, as if he was listening to a strange story.
However, while the two were talking, a light red mist appeared inexplicably in the whole room, which was inhaled by Fatty Lin Xu into his mouth and nose...
