Chapter 18 The Unknowing Genius

“Teacher Liu, do you remember Ji Xinghe? You once brought One of the students of the class of 2042 is from the Mechanical Repair Department. He has a very obvious feature, that is, he is very tall, 1.9 meters tall…”

“Ji Xinghe, I remember.”

“Then what do you think of Ji Xinghe?”

In the picture on the screen, Teacher Liu, who is 90 years old, is lying on a reclining chair in the yard of the nursing home, enjoying the sunlight with his eyes closed. warm, like falling asleep. The reporter who asked the question did not ask, but waited quietly. For about a minute, Teacher Liu’s eyes widened as if he suddenly woke up.

“Ji Xinghe, I remember, he is very tall, 1.93 meters.”

“Yes, that’s him. Teacher Liu, what do you have for him? What about the evaluation?”

Teacher Liu closed his eyes again, lying on the reclining chair and even shaking slightly.

The reporter’s expression twitched, and he explained in a low voice, “Old Mister was 1.93 meters tall when he was young, but when he got older, his body became a little rickety, so he was only 1.9 meters tall in the previous physical test. Mi Jiu. Age and time are the biggest enemies of our human beings, not only Ji Old Mister but also Teacher Liu. This year, Teacher Liu, who is 92 years old, has amnesia…”

The waiting time of this time In the same minute, Teacher Liu’s body seemed to have an alarm clock inside, his eyes widened again and he shouted loudly.

“He, he is a genius who doesn’t know it.”

“Genius?” The reporter asked excitedly: “Teacher Liu, you mean Ji Old Mister is a genius? A genius? Then why did he return to work in an auto repair shop in New Phoenix City after graduating from school?”

Teacher Liu fell asleep again, and the reporter continued to wait helplessly for a minute. After that, Teacher Liu really woke up again and widened his eyes and said, “Ji Xinghe, I know, he is very tall, 1.93 meters.”

“…” Reporter: ” Yes, Teacher Liu, that’s him, what do you think of him?”

A minute later.

“He, he’s a genius without knowing it.”

“Why do you say that? Did Ji Old Mister show him when he was in school? Innate talent. Can you be more specific, Teacher Liu, Teacher Liu?”

The interview can’t go on, even if the reporter is very patient, but for an elderly person suffering from amnesia , it is difficult to communicate like a normal person. But this interview video was edited and released by the federal military. They need to keep Ji Xinghe’s popularity and the motivation that the story of revenge for his son brings to everyone in the federation. Only in this way can we better gather all the people in the federation. The power of the Federation wins the war with the Empire.

As the distance between the alien star and the blue star gets closer and closer, the distance between the empire and the federation is also getting closer and closer. Once the defense line above the alien star falls, it will be a real Human catastrophe.

In this case, Ji Xinghe needs heat, but Ji Xinghe, who is in the cosmic spaceship and has not been able to reach the alien star, has not created a new story. At the age of sixty-five, he ran ten kilometers in thirty-five minutes, and he did not lie on a stretcher and was admitted to the hospital because of it. The motivation this story can bring to people is not too much lasting.

So they began to dig out the story of Ji Xinghe, but Ji Xinghe’s life experience is too simple. .

Ji Xinghe, a lonely family, can only call his wife’s accident a story. However, for the parents of a fighting hero who died for the federation, the federation military needs to maintain it even if it wants to build momentum. due respect.

They can mention Ji Chenxing because Ji Chenxing is a federal soldier. They can mention Ji Xinghe, because Ji Xinghe is also a federal soldier now, but they can’t mention Ji Chenxing’s mother, Ji Xinghe’s wife, because that is an ordinary woman, and all the ordinary persons that the federal soldiers need to protect with their lives Same.

Ji Chenxing died and Ji Xinghe is still alive, so the focus of the story is on Ji Xinghe. Anyone who knows Ji Xinghe may appear in documentaries related to Ji Xinghe .

“Teacher Liu said that Ji Xinghe Old Mister is a genius without knowing it. Then, as a classmate of Ji Old Mister, how do you evaluate him?”

Using Teacher Liu’s words, the reporter began to interview Ji Xinghe’s college classmates, high school classmates, and even junior high school classmates, all of whom are in their 60s and 70s, so the reporter always needs to use the prefix of your name.

“Yes, Old Ji is a genius.” A college classmate said: “He can get full marks in every exam, whether it’s a theory exam or a practical exam, we were all in the same year. Call him Xueba.”

“Yes, Old Ji is a genius.” A high school classmate said: “Although I know that Old Ji has passed the grade, he is indeed a genius. Because I I know the reason for his repeating grades. He likes the machine repair major so much, so he often fails the cultural class exam. I also know that he had a fight with his parents in order to apply for the machine repair major.”

“Yes, Old Ji is a genius.” A junior high school classmate said: “Secretly tell you, Old Ji knows the martial arts. He was kept in junior high school because he secretly learned martial arts, and he went to the repair shop to repair various machines for free every day. What kind of mouse, keyboard, mobile phone, computer, TV, bicycle, motorcycle, battery car… He can repair anything that breaks. If it weren’t for these, he wouldn’t have been relegated.”

Three The words of a classmate made Ji Xinghe’s image gradually clear in the eyes of the audience: a genius who loves martial arts and machine repair, thus delaying his normal cultural studies. When he was in college, he insisted on his dream and was admitted to a university majoring in mechanical engineering. Then he showed an incredible innate talent in the eyes of the teacher. Even after a forty-fifty year, his teacher was still amazed and didn’t know it. genius.

Then here comes the problem.

The reporter handed the microphone to Ji Xinghe’s friends and colleagues.

“Excuse me, why did a genius like Ji Old Mister not continue his studies after graduation, or go to work in a more professional place, but instead returned to New Phoenix City to work in a repair shop? “

“Why, you look down on our repair shop? I can tell you that there is no more professional auto repair shop in the entire New Phoenix City, no, the entire Longzhou.”

“No no no, I didn’t mean that, I was just curious why Ji Old Mister made such a choice.”

The answer is simple, Ji Xinghe’s friend looked at the camera and said: ” Because his parents’ health was not very good at that time, he wanted to go home to take care of his parents. Moreover, there was no mecha at that time, mechanic was a repairman. Except for going into the factory to repair some big machines, it was repairing cars, New Phoenix City is a tourist city, there is no such factory, so there is only car repair.”

After listening to this, the reporter was in awe, facing the camera and said sincerely: “Ji Old Mister is a person who does not know it. He is a genius, but in order to take care of his parents, he chose to give up his great future. What kind of spirit is this? It’s like Ji Old Mister has already retired and can retire, but for the sake of the Federation, he still chose to use Joining the conscription at an advanced age and successfully enlisting in the army after passing the rigorous assessment, what kind of spirit is this? I’m sorry, I don’t know how to describe it, but I would like to call it the spirit of Old Ji! Old Ji Fuzheng, Ambition is a thousand miles away, martyrs are in their old age, and their hearts are full of strength…”

When the audience saw these pictures and heard the sensational voice of the reporter, their emotions were very complicated. The number of applicants for this round of conscription activities in the Federation has skyrocketed.

But what no one knows is that the reporter actually interviewed Ji Xinghe’s elementary school classmates, but the two paragraphs of the elementary school classmates were not edited into the final film.

“Old Ji is a genius? hahaha…he just wants to make a shape-shifting Vajra, used to tell us every day that he would make shape-shifting Vajra when he grew up, and bet me that if he made shape-shifting Vajra Now, let me marry my elder sister to him. But where is the deformed Vajra now? He can’t even make mecha, my elder sister… grandsons are all in college.”

” Ah? He secretly practiced martial arts? I know that too. He said he couldn’t create a shape-shifting Vajra, so he grabbed a shape-shifting Vajra and went back to ride. It wasn’t driving, it was riding, because it was a shape-shifting Vajra that he captured, so he wanted to practice martial arts secretly. , because he can’t beat the shape-shifting Vajra without practicing martial arts, hahaha…Old Ji, ah, Old Ji, you are so fucking stupid, you are going to join the army when you are old, and if you die, I will never go to your grave to pour you a drink , I’ll drink it at home by myself, you idiot.”
