Galileo's beautiful magazine Rainy Day, Bathing and Mourning Youth.

Qi shui yi yi

In the tenth year when I met Galileo, my thinking was close to this scientific freak.

Don't be afraid, it looks like a rainstorm that will sweep the world. In fact, the rainfall is only nine millimeters. Or, be careful, it will rain heavily in forty-five minutes, and it looks like a blue wash.

If you love, you can also measure it by scale and predict it by formula.

But the reality is that he can accurately predict the time of rain, but he can't answer whether he loves me or not.

In the spring of the tenth year when Galileo and I met, Beijing continued to be sunny and dry, and there was no rain for nearly a hundred days. The weather forecast said that in the afternoon, a warm and humid airflow finally entered the country and met with cold air to form rainfall.

A little earlier than the appointed time, I sat on a bench in the park, patiently waiting for the warm and humid airflow, waiting for my Galileo.

I looked up slightly, and the heroic sunshine stung my eyes and made me want to cry. I gently closed my eyes in the wind, remembering. Are you willing to wait for someone for ten years just to wait for an uncertain answer? I know.

Galileo and I met on a lovelorn rainy day.

Fourteen-year-old, short hair like a hedgehog, school uniform pants are too long, pants were trampled to pieces. That is a boy of 14 years old, and he will be moved just because he looks good. He got up the courage to confess to the basketball team's "Rukawa Kaede" and was issued a good friend card: "We are good buddies, you are very strong, do you want to play basketball?"

Actually, I understand why. I'm not smart enough, I'm not beautiful enough, and I'm a little "Machamp". For example, I can carry bottled water on one shoulder. For example, I am invincible in the canteen. Anyway, I'm not likable.

It rained heavily that day, and the whole world seemed to collapse.

Depressed, I changed a pair of lemon yellow rain boots, looked for large and small puddles in the rain with an umbrella, and kicked wildly until I splashed all over. Because I stepped on the water with my head down, I didn't pay attention to the figure next to me and accidentally splashed the water on the other side. I quickly restrained my movements and looked up to apologize.

But the other person ignored me like he didn't hear me and walked on.

He didn't open an umbrella, and his tall figure looked lonely in the rain. I thought: will he be lovelorn, too?

"Classmate, let's open an umbrella together." I went up and gave him half my umbrella. He is very tall, and I hold my umbrella high.

He finally noticed me, took a step back and kept his distance from me. The rain flowed down his high eyebrows, high nose and pointed chin, made a beautiful mediation on his Adam's apple, and then dripped into his thin collarbone.

He looked at me and said, "The PH of this rain is only 6.8."

I was still stunned by his handsome appearance and asked stupidly, "What?"

"It's not acid rain. It doesn't matter if you get wet." He showed me the PH test paper in his hand, and the light pink one was particularly delicate.

I petrified for three seconds and handed the umbrella without hesitation: "But you will catch a cold in the rain."

He solemnly explained: "A cold is a virus infection, which is related to immune cells and has nothing to do with getting wet."

This is the first time I have met my Galileo. He stood in the rain, which made me stunned by the powerful scientific theory. To me, he is a shining encyclopedia. From prehistoric civilization to interstellar black holes, he spent two hours demonstrating the benefits of getting wet in the rain, but I actually … just want to hold an umbrella with him.

The rain finally stopped. He looked up at the sky and asked me, "Do you want to know what the rainfall was just now?"

I went to the playground with him, and there were many bottles, rain cones, measuring cups and funnels on the ground. He held up the transparent measuring cup and displayed it with a clear scale. He said, "What is below10mm is called light rain, and it just rained 9mm."

I stared at the scale in the measuring cup in shock and was stung by his words. It seems to rain all over the world, but in fact it is only nine millimeters; Like a lovelorn love that hurts into the bone marrow, it may be as light as a feather.

I smiled instantly with relief.

Galileo's real name is Ruan and his IQ is as high as 187. He comes from a scientific family, his father is a top astrophysicist and his mother is a well-known marine biologist. He himself won several gold medals in mathematics and physics at the International Olympic Games. It is said that he once implanted the DNA of luminous jellyfish into goldfish to make a "fish lamp", and from time to time tied a bunch of electrodes to his head for experiments.

Weird teenagers with high IQ and low EQ are naturally loners at school. They seldom talk to people. Most of the time, they sleep on their desks, and when they wake up, they are busy calculating the torsion theory on paper, which smells like "don't get close to strangers".

So even after entering high school, I sat at the same table with him for half a year and never spoke once. Until one day, when the class representative was collecting Chinese homework, he suddenly waved his long arm and snatched my exercise book: "lend me one."

I looked at this schoolmaster, who will always be the first in the whole grade, and bowed his head and copied my Chinese homework quickly. I fell asleep on my desk after copying, leaving me alone in the wind for a long time.

He copied my Chinese homework for three years. He has a good memory and never forgets anything. The problem is that he hasn't even read those ancient poems, and he is sleeping in Chinese class. In exchange, I copied his math and physics for three years. His strange words are very beautiful, and those boring formulas and equations are so vivid and lovely under his brush strokes.

After we met, he called me "root number 2.5" because I was only 1.58 meters tall. Facts have proved that Xueba never misses a chance to kill scum.

"The root number is 2.5, and your reflex arc can circle the earth three times."

"Mendeleev will cry to the ground when he sees your answer."

Every time he handed out the test paper, he looked at my score first and then at me. His eyes seemed to say, "It's not easy for a stupid person like you to live to this day." In front of all his tall words, I feel low.

Fortunately, he sleeps most of the time. His sleeping face is like a beautiful boy sleeping in the moonlight in ancient Greek mythology. He fell asleep quietly like this, but it was a temptation for me.

The teenager put his face on the textbook and slept soundly. Outside the window are large tracts of blooming gardenias, white and fragrant, which make him picturesque. The breeze blew and stirred my heart like a feather. I couldn't help reaching out and painting his eyebrows from a distance.

When I was walking in the park during my sophomore summer vacation, Ruan changed her mind about me.

"The root number is two point five!" He has a white insect net in his hand, a helmet similar to a coal miner's with a searchlight, a ventilated plastic box on his shoulder and a cross-country mountaineering bag on his shoulder. The sun shone through the cracks in the tree and kissed his face stained with mud and grass.

I coughed twice and said, "Are you going to rob a tomb?"

His smile was always high, and he explained with a straight face, "I'm catching a two-pronged rhinoceros beetle." Seeing my puzzled face, he put it another way: "It's a unicorn." Seeing that I was still puzzled, he pursed his lips: "Beetle, you always know, right?"

I nodded: "Why do you catch beetles?"

"Didn't you watch the news?" He raised his eyebrows in doubt. "Under the interference of light, the unicorn's shell will turn green, but when water penetrates into the porous layer of the shell, it will turn black again. This feature can be used to develop humidity detectors ... "

I waited patiently for him to finish, and my mouth twitched and smiled: "Normal high school students don't watch this kind of news, do they?"

He shrugged his shoulders. "I'm finished. I'm going home. By the way, do you want to go to my house to play? "

Ruan's home is simply a huge laboratory. As soon as I entered the door, I was scared by two ferocious African woodcarvings. I barely recognized a DNA double helix structure in a row of strange models.

Ruan Chen Dong shouted, "Turn on the light." The overhead light came on.

I tried to shout, "Turn off the lights." The light went out at once. My excited eyes lit up: "Did you do this?"

"You say voice recognition lamp? Yes. " He said airily.

When I finished, I stopped talking to me, and I looked at the beetle with a microscope. I was completely trapped and completely forgot that I was a guest. I found a chair to sit down and looked at him with my chin in my hands. The boy in front of the microscope is very attractive when he does the experiment carefully.

The experimental incandescent lamp hit his side face like a thin frost on a cage.

An hour later, Ruan stood on the wooden ladder and tried to remove the huge metal air cushion guide rail. I saw him struggling, so I climbed the ladder and helped him take down the air cushion guide.

He looked at me in surprise: "You are so strong!" Regard me as a treasure: "come, be my assistant!" " "

I didn't expect my Machamp to help him. I was inexplicably happy and spent the whole afternoon as his experimental assistant. When the last white phosphorus experiment suddenly caught fire in front of me, Ruan Chendong shouted, "Cover it with a wet cloth!" " "

I'm not afraid of danger, so I grabbed a towel and covered it with water.

Ruan Chendong glared at me: "Root number 2.5, you are so special!"

He seldom praised me, even praised me twice. I looked down and didn't know what to say. The disadvantage of being rejected by other boys has become an advantage here. My heart seems to have been touched by a dragonfly, and gentle waves are slowly rippling in the lake.

My stomach suddenly growled, and he threw out a bunch of takeout orders: "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? "

Finally, I made two bowls of egg noodles with noodles and eggs in the kitchen. The two of them sat on the ground in a pile of steaming noodles. It's hot and his eyebrows are getting longer and longer.

From then on, I went to Ruan's house every weekend to be his assistant. I can do manual labor, I am not afraid of fire or explosion, I am calm when sulfuric acid spills, and I can cook some meals. Ruan Chendong couldn't wait to give me 32 praises.

His parents have been conducting scientific investigations in the wild all the year round. They come back to see me occasionally and greet me with a smile. They are a lovestruck couple, deeply influenced by western culture. When they are apart, they always hug and kiss goodbye in front of Ruan and me.

I always look away in confusion, as if I saw Ruan and I kissing.

The whole world is my heartbeat.

With the connection outside school, we are naturally closer at school. The most important thing on campus is gossip, and soon gossip will be everywhere. Ruan is the man of the hour in the school, so I was pushed to the forefront.

The class teacher called Ruan He to the office. I was in a hurry and suddenly popped up: "Yes! I like Ruan! "

Originally it was just rebellious angry words, but after shouting, my brain exploded. The chest is stormy, but the mind is clear. I like him, of course I like him, like the way he sleeps, like the way his slender fingers shake the test tube, like the way he drinks all my noodle soup, like the way he rubs my hair and calls me "root number 2.5".

He is like a lamp, illuminating my gray youth.

Time seems to have frozen. I don't know how long it took. I slowly opened my eyes. Ruan Chendong turned to look at me. His face is half bright and half dark, so he can't see clearly.

For a long time, the class teacher coughed a few times: "Ruan, what about you?" Do you like Pastor Blue, too? "

His eyes are lost, like a ship without beacon lights in the sea at night, and his eyebrows are slowly wrinkled, like a towering hill. He was very upset and at a loss. His thin pale lips opened and he simply said, "I don't know."

He doesn't know.

I tried not to cry that day until I came home at night. I threw away my schoolbag and fell face down on the bed, motionless. The sheets were wet from face to neck. I swore ten thousand times that I would never talk to Ruan again, but I couldn't help writing in my diary wet with tears: "Maybe he likes me, but he doesn't know."

Just finished writing, I heard Ruan calling me downstairs.

The night is blurred, covering my swollen tears. Ruan took a huge astronomical telescope and we took the elevator to the top floor. He taught me to observe nebulae.

"Recently, the light pollution is too serious, otherwise the Pleiades and honeycomb clusters would be visible to the naked eye." He adjusted the telescope and pulled me over. "This is the wheel galaxy, 500 million light years away from the Earth."

The color of the wheel galaxy is very beautiful and colorful. I bent down to look at the telescope for a long time until Ruan Chendong patted me on the shoulder and said, "There is also the Horsehead Nebula." I looked at the beautiful nebula, and the residual water in my eyes was gradually blown dry by the wind.

Late at night, I sent him downstairs. There is a osmanthus tree downstairs. On a dark night, the flowers are falling and the white petals are hazy.

He looked at me, his voice hoarse and gentle. "I don't know if I like you, but I don't hate you." I don't know what it looks like ... will you wait for me to find out? "

A night breeze blows gently, and the osmanthus trees are full of fine snow. There is a sweet-scented osmanthus falling on my nose, itchy and with a touch of melancholy sweetness. I looked at him quietly, and his eyes reflected the burning osmanthus.

Dear Galileo, no one will show me the nebula 500 million light-years away except you.

I nodded, my eyebrows bent and I smiled. The wind lifted my skirt, with sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance. I had shoulder-length hair at the beginning.

I didn't know at the time. It's been ten years.

Being Frankenstein's assistant is like a wonderful adventure, which is thrilling every day.

I learned to bring my own fire-fighting equipment, because Ruan's house was lit several times, and the flowers and plants on the balcony were generously dedicated. For a while, he developed smart flash bombs, which almost turned me into "snow blindness".

In the summer vacation when I was sixteen, I accompanied Ruan to collect red corals at the bottom of the sea. He put on an oxygen mask and dragged me into the sea. The sea is clear and the sun shines into the coral reef. Ruan's short hair bloomed in the sea, showing his teeth.

He took my hand and walked among the colorful corals. The fish were scared by us and fled one by one, flowing around us like sparkling silk. They scatter and gather, and the light and shadow of the underwater world flow like affectionate eyes.

I suddenly felt a dull pain in my calf. When I turned around, two jellyfish attacked my calf.

Jellyfish is neurotoxic, directly paralyzing the respiratory system and heart, and I am very dizzy in an instant.

The limp and numb body sank until Ruan's arm hugged me. In a daze, he held me and swam out of the sea. Stimulated by the sunshine, I opened my eyes and saw him holding my calf, leaning over and sucking the toxic cells and blood in the wound with his mouth.

"Don't sleep! Don't sleep! " He slapped me while smoking.

I looked at his nervous and anxious eyebrows and suddenly felt that even if I was paralyzed, I would like to.

He took me to the hospital as quickly as possible. The doctor said he would have an amputation. He turned pale with fear, but I smiled.

Dear Galileo, I am not afraid of all the dangers of being with you. But I want to be with you more than fear. No matter how dangerous the situation is, I am willing to accompany you in case of fire, explosion, poisoning and acid corrosion.

Until Jin Curie invaded.

When Ruan introduced Jin Curie to me, her eyes lit up: "She converted her oven into an intelligent robot at the age of ten, and built a nuclear reactor with me at the age of thirteen!"

Jin Curie went to California to study at the age of fourteen. As soon as she came back, she communicated with Ruan in fluent English. Even if they switch to Chinese, I can't understand it, because the scientific terms they exchanged haven't even been translated into Chinese.

I just watched them draw pictures on the blackboard and had a heated discussion. I couldn't understand it, so I made a pot of coffee. Jinke Curie said: "I don't drink genetically modified coffee."

This is the first thing she said to me.

The second thing she said was, "Hey! Your name is root 2.5? Have you done the Mensa test? Is your IQ half that of Ruan? I forgot to tell you that he and I were childhood friends. People with high IQ can get married and ensure the excellent genes of the next generation. "

Jin Curie was a hurricane. When she came, she ruined my life.

Ruan called me, "I'm hungry. Come and cook for me. Curie loves mustard, help me buy some! "

I'm not used to mustard. The suffocating smell makes me want to cry.

Jin Curie has been living in Ruan's house since she returned to China. They have endless topics and experiments every day. I cooked the dishes and served them. They were still arguing excitedly at dinner. I ate a hamburger with mustard and burst into tears.

Ruan Chendong thought I was very strange: "Can't you get used to mustard?"

So I nodded and cried frankly.

It was no surprise that I failed in the college entrance examination that year.

Ruan and Jin Curie went to Stanford together, while I went to repeat school. It's a world of difference. We are separated by 5 1 longitude and 18 latitude. There is only one Pacific Ocean, but I feel that we are 500 million light years apart.

I took the Mensa test and got less than 80. My IQ is really not even half that of Ruan.

Isn't that ridiculous? Genes determine that we will not walk together. I foolishly believe that I can cross all this, I can walk 99 steps, just wait for him to take a step towards me, and we will embrace each other.

But I'm not even qualified to walk those 99 steps.

Before Ruan went to the airport, he took a taxi to my house and called me, "Blue Bridge!" He called my name for the first time, "I'm leaving!" " "

I hid behind the curtain and wiped my tears rudely, pretending to be strong and shouting, "I want to study, and I don't have time to see you off!" " "

In order not to run out in vain, I locked the door and threw the key out of the window. In September of that year, the window was full of phoenix flowers, like burning clouds, and my heart was like pieces of golden gray snow. The autumn wind is bleak and the waves are rough. He is leaving, and my life is no longer as bright as the sun and the moon.

Ruan waited for me downstairs for a long time, almost missed the plane, and finally got into a taxi alone.

Is he really leaving? My heart is pounding. I clung to the curtain, my fingertips turned white, and finally I couldn't help it. I turned out of the third floor window and slipped down the wet and rusty water pipe. The wind messed up my hair tips and skirts, and I jumped off the fence in despair. I didn't realize that I didn't wear shoes until my feet touched the cold and rough asphalt.

It's raining cats and dogs, and the world is boundless.

The taxi started and I ran barefoot in the rain. The heavy rain hit my face like tears. I chased and shouted desperately, but he couldn't hear me. It rained so hard that he couldn't hear. Just as I gave him all the courage and strength of my life, he never gave me any love in return.

His car didn't stop, but sped away to a place I could never reach.

The rain washed my body, and my legs were weak, and I sat on the ground, dripping with blood, unable to stop the tears flowing. The rain brought him and took him away. At that time, I desperately thought that I would never see him again in my life.

Mo Bosang said: Life is never as good as you think, nor as bad as you think.

Ruan Chendong occasionally calls me. I stood in the deserted open space and bleak wind of the re-reading school, clutching my hot mobile phone and listening to him talk about his life, his subject, his ... Jin Curie.

"Root number 2.5, I miss your cooking very much." He sighed.

I giggled. What he misses is my food. I probably only deserve to cook for him. Only Jin Curie can understand his profound theorems and formulas, discuss scientific topics with him and stand side by side on the glorious stage of the scientific world.

"Sorry, I'm going to study by myself." I took a deep breath, and the air was filled with the smell of plant corruption.

Have you ever chased a star? Do you have this despair that you can never touch?

The only thing I can do is to get into a good university. I told myself again and again in countless days of gritting my teeth and studying hard: Pastor Lan, even if you never catch up with him, you can't let yourself rot in the mud.

Because you still like him, you can't let yourself fall with this love.

seven

But even with 100% efforts, there is still a talent gap between people. After all, I only got into an ordinary university. There is no spare money at home to send me abroad. I thought Ruan and I would go further and further. Unexpectedly, when I was a sophomore, Ruan, who finished the credits ahead of time and got a degree, followed in his father's footsteps and returned to China to enter the top scientific research institutions.

He drove to my school. After two years, the first sentence was: "Don't you have an umbrella? It will rain in thirty-six minutes. "

I suddenly stood there: "Thirty-six minutes?"

He said, "I like the China Meteorological Bureau, which publishes a cloud thickness map every five minutes. Do you know mechanical learning? Is a feedback neural network, a kind of technology to simulate the human brain, can accurately calculate the time of rain ... "

I waited and watched him for a while, and listened to his explanation with great interest, but my eyes gradually became moist.

This is my dear Galileo, who can erase the time when we were apart as quickly as dust. At his invitation, I became the most effective assistant in his research room.

We still have a tacit understanding. I knew what he wanted when he looked at him.

On my birthday, he asked me, "Do you want to take a hot air balloon? Why don't I make you a hot air balloon and we'll watch the clouds in the sky together. "

For him, making a hot air balloon is as simple as the following note. Ultra-thin special polyester fabric with high temperature and high pressure resistance is ready-made in the research room, and burners, manual switches and high temperature gas pipes are within reach. I helped to buy tough Shan Ye rattan online. It took him two nights to assemble a blue hot air balloon with my family name "Blue" printed on it.

"No problem? Will there be an accident in midair? " I asked with a smile.

Ruan Chendong explained professionally: "There are more than 2,000 cubic meters of hot air in the balloon, which is enough to ensure the smooth landing of the hot air balloon."

In the early autumn of twenty-one years old, on my birthday, Ruan took my hand and the hot air balloon slowly rose to the sky. The blue sky is getting closer and closer, white clouds seem to be within reach, and the breeze blows across our cheeks.

We looked at each other with a smile for a long time, and my tears just flowed down.

He quickly wiped my tears, and I hugged him with open arms.

I put my chin on his broad shoulders and choked and said, "I've been trying and never gave up." Ruan, I like you, and I will always chase you and wait for you. "

The sky is no longer far away, white clouds are around us, and the temperature of his palm is ironing my heart. The breeze made me cry like a crybaby at a height of two kilometers. For a long time, he said softly, "Sing me a song."

We sat in a hot air balloon, and he leaned on my shoulder and listened to me sing one song after another.

"I don't care what will happen in the future, at least we are very happy now. I don't care how it ends, at least I miss you. "

He listened to my song, gently closed his eyes and fell asleep. I looked at his sleeping face quietly, and everything seemed to be back to the age of 15 years old deskmate. Behind him are clouds of white clouds, like gardenias in those days.

I couldn't help reaching out and painting his eyebrows from a distance.

Life is in a hurry, there have been so many beautiful moments, what can you expect?

I was calm enough when Jin Curie appeared in front of me again. The first thing I said to her was, "This is non-GMO coffee." The second sentence is: "Have you ever asked Ruan how you feel? Have you ever thought that maybe you are just wishful thinking? I admit that you have the same topic as him, but you must know that love is the most incomprehensible thing in the world. "

After all, Jin Curie is Jin Curie. He quickly smiled indifferently: "Do you think he likes you?" She handed me the phone. On the screen is an email sent to her by Ruan: "Can you understand it?"

This is a strange string: r=a( 1-sinθ).

I decoded this string of characters, which is the last letter from mathematician Descartes to the Swedish princess. The king wanted to separate them and confiscated all their letters. Descartes sent the last string of characters to the princess when the Black Death was dying.

The king and ministers couldn't understand it, so they had to give it to the princess. The princess established a polar coordinate system on paper, and traced the points of the equation on it with a pen, and found that it was a beautiful peach heart shape.

It's another year of sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance. It's rich and fragrant, which makes my nose slightly red.

From fourteen to twenty-four, I chased Galileo for ten years. I spent ten years waiting for his answer.

In the dry spring when it didn't rain for 100 days in Beijing, I sat on a park bench and heard what Jin Curie asked me last night: "What would you do if you waited for him for ten years and he told you that he didn't like you?"

At that moment, the images in my mind fell like snowflakes. He shook the rain gauge. He showed me nebulae hundreds of millions of light years away. He sucked the blood from my calf with his mouth. He took me to an altitude of two thousand meters.

The smile slowly rippled on my lips.

It turns out that he has given me so much warmth and light in the past ten years. It turns out that in the past ten years, he has never let me be lonely.

It turns out that in the past ten years, he has illuminated my direction and taught me to love someone bravely and strongly.

"I will continue to wait for him, wait for the next decade, and then the next decade, I will wait forever." I looked up, bathed in bright sunshine, and firmly answered Jin Curie.

Above the park, the sky is low, the clouds are getting thicker and thicker, and the sun is breathing weakly. I saw Ruan Chendong striding towards me in a black trench coat. Ten years later, his face is still full of youth. He is still my dearest Galileo, full of passion for science and the world. I love his childlike heart and his simple, straightforward and earnest heart.

I stood up and smiled: "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

He smiled slowly. "Yes, it has been ten years." He looked at me with burning eyes: "I'm here to tell you the answer."

I saw the instrument in his hand: "What is this?"

"I forgot to bring my umbrella. It will rain in three minutes. " He looked at the instrument. "We still have three minutes."

He stretched out his hand and grabbed my waist, which was powerful and could not be refused. "Three minutes may not be enough." With that, he leaned over and kissed me hard, tearing the brocade for ten years.

Jin Curie's words last night still echoed in my ears: "In fact, the formula of polar coordinate system is the love letter he wants to give you." He asked me if I would like to make such a confession. "

She also said: "He does heat up slowly, but once he is tempted, he will never change. You are lucky that he has actually fallen in love with you for a long time. He said there was a girl because he almost had an amputation, but she smiled and told him to take the intelligent wheelchair he invented. He has never seen such a bright smile in his life. "

So he will come back to China early for me and invent an instrument that can accurately predict rain because I always forget to bring my umbrella.

Over the park, warm and humid air and cold air are converging. I gently close my eyes and bear a kiss that smells like rain.

Dear Galileo, I love you too.
