Chen Xingdong said, “We called you on the way here, but your mobile phone indicated that it was turned off. So, we could only directly come to your home.”
Qin Xinlian looked trance, nodded in confusion, and replied as if she was in a daze, “Yes, yes. My mobile phone was turned off in the morning.”
Changze, entered Department X of the State?
Although she didn’t know what department it was, there was the word ‘State.’
The was the countries department!
She felt that she should be excited, but her heart was empty and unsettled.
Qin Xinlian even had the thought, ‘Is this a dream?’
Otherwise, Changze hasn’t graduated yet; why had he already entered Department X of the State?
But a scammer wouldn’t be so daring as to drive a military vehicle, wear a military uniform, and carry a gun.
But, but how is that possible …?
The neighbors helped Qin Xinlian in asking.
“No way… That kid is still in school, right?”
Chen Xingdong looked serious, “Yes, Ji Changze developed a robot, so we made an exception and entered him in Department X of the State.”
Qin Xinlian’s eyes brightened, “Yes, yes, Changze seems to be talking about making robots in the past two months and taking part in a competition.”
“Tell you what, if you don’t believe me, I’ll call Ji Changze and let him tell you.”
When he finished speaking, he nimbly dialed the phone, and the other side quickly answered, “Captain, I can’t. He still won’t sleep.”
“I know; you give him your phone and tell him that we have picked up his mother.”
Chen Xingdong finished speaking and handed the phone to Qin Xinlian.
On the other end, Ji Changze was sitting on the bed reading a book.
He was turning the pages at a rate of 10 seconds a page. Outside the window, there was a crowd of several people, carefully watching him.
“What do you think? Why isn’t this kid sleepy?”
“The kids who came with him had already fallen asleep. When I went, they were snoring. As soon as you hear it, you know they were tired.”
“Strange, arguably, they did everything together. This kid should also be sleepy.”
“Who said he wasn’t sleepy? Look at his eyes; he’s forcing them open. Poor thing, he is turning the pages 2 seconds slower than before. The kid is sleepy. Why wouldn’t he sleep?”
An old man thought about it and said with certainty, “Isn’t it said that he has a particularly high IQ? His memory is good too. He is a genius; maybe geniuses are different.”
“What countries genius have you seen having their mother accompany them?”
“He is still young and a kid. Why can’t he have his mother? Besides, is there any conflict between being a genius and wanting their mother?”
“What happened? He stayed up all the while, just because his mother wasn’t here?”
An old man made a decent analysis, “I think his brain activity is much higher than ours. He doesn’t sleep because he is still absorbing knowledge.”
“Maybe it’s because of nerves.”
“I think it’s because he’s simulating various experiments in his mind. I heard that gifted children abroad often do this. It’s not impossible.”
The windows were soundproof and bulletproof, and what they said were naturally inaudible to Ji Changze in the room.
He quickly finished the book in his hand and put it aside with a straight face. A soldier standing beside him immediately took another book and handed it to him.
Then he tried to warm his voice and advised, “Classmate, it’s time for you to go to bed. How about some sleep? When you wake up, you can read as many books as you want.”
Ji Changze looked back at the bed.
Frowning slightly, he turned his head and held out his hand. With a cold voice, he said, “I want my Mother.”
He followed suit and looked at the bed.
The welfare of Department X in their country had always been very good. Ji Changze, the precious egg, was directly arranged in the best room.
A very soft big bed, with were hard pillows and soft pillows. Even if he liked a pillow made of bamboo, just say it, and they would get it for Ji Changze immediately.
The four-piece bedding set for bed was also the best.
The quilt was neatly folded, looking like a typical tofu block.
Such a good sleeping environment.
This little classmate was so sleepy, but why can’t he sleep?
He worried that Ji Changze, who had just been defined as a precious egg, was holding on so firmly to stay awake, and then something would happen. He tried hard to persuade.
“These quilts and the bedding underneath are all brand new, and the four-piece set is also new, specially brought out to bask in the sun before delivery, warm and comfortable to sleep in.”
Ji Changze: “I want my Mother.”
This precious egg was too tricky.
It so happened that the phone ringed at this time, and his eyes lit up. So, he quickly picked it up. After answering, he gave Ji Changze his mobile phone.
Ji Changze took the phone, and there came the voice of Qin Xinlian, “Changze, there is a policeman here. Police …… no-no, there’s a military comrade. He said you are now in Department X of the State and asked me also to come over. Is that true?”
“Mom, when will you come?”
Qin Xinlian looked at Chen Xingdong, who hurriedly said, “Less than half an hour.”
Qin Xinlian: “This comrade said, less than half an hour.”
Ji Changze nodded, “I’m sleepy. You guys hurry up.”
He hung up the phone, and the soldier standing next to him quickly answered, “Classmate, sleep when you are sleepy, okay? Your body can’t take no sleep like this.”
He kept his head down and continued reading.
Don’t be angry, don’t be mad…
Qin Xinlian was sure that her son was safe and sound, so she was relieved.
She also nodded and agreed to come over.
She followed the soldier and was almost completely protected. When she got on the car, Qin Xinlian felt that everyone was looking at her.
In the past, Qin Xinlian would have felt uncomfortable all over, wondering if something was wrong with her body or if her clothes were worn backward.
But now, she thought about what Chen Xingdong said just now; her heart is full of pride.
And also took her along to Department X.
Who says her Changze was a giant baby?
Her family’s Changze was very promising!!
There were so many people outside just now, and Chen Xingdong couldn’t say too much in detail. When he got on the car, he told her the whole truth about Ji Changze’s refusal to sleep.
Qin Xinlian felt distressed when she heard that her son hadn’t slept for so long.
“Did… did he say why he didn’t sleep? You can’t go on without sleeping.”
Although she often stayed up all night for work and went to work as if nothing had happened the next day, it didn’t matter if something happened to herself, but she felt distressed when it comes to her child.
Chen Xingdong shook his head, “He only wants books and wants you. He doesn’t say anything else.”
Qin Xinlian nodded, “Yes, Changze is like this. He is reticent. Sometimes he ignores me even when I talk to him.”
She even thought whether her son disliked her before and didn’t want to talk to her while ignoring her like this.
Chen Xingdong said, “His roommates said that this was normal, saying that Ji Changze has a set of his judgment standards in his mind. If he judges that it is a waste of time to communicate with people. He wouldn’t communicate with people, and wouldn’t take the initiative to communicate with people unless they say something he thinks is important, then he will initiate communication.”
Qin Xinlian suddenly realized.
She misunderstood Changze again.
Chen Xingdong also thought it was terrific, but when he felt that Ji Changze was a super-genius, he felt ordinary peoples’ standards couldn’t measure him.
All weird, tsk, all special.
He said, “In a word, I hope you can calm him down and make him asleep as soon as possible when you arrive. It isn’t good for the human body to stay awake for so long.”
(note: ‘Sleep’ what is that? Can we eat it?… I live to translate!!)
And that precious mind, don’t let it overheat.
Qin Xinlian nodded and agreed.
But at the same time, her heartfelt very strange. Changze, why didn’t he sleep?
A few of the older men who were carefully watching Ji Changze outside the glass were also wondering about this.
“Why hasn’t he slept yet?”
“Such a smart brain, don’t let it overheat.”
“I see that the young man next to him is almost crying with anxiety. This kid just won’t sleep; what the hell is going on?”
Several people thought about it and put forward several answers that they thought were likely.
“He must have been doing all kinds of deductions in his head.”
“Probably stayed up for a long time and couldn’t sleep?”
“Maybe this is his way of life, sleeping only once every two days or something like that. Isn’t there an example abroad before?”
“I think there are too many things in his mind so that he can’t rest at all. Didn’t he yawn a few times?”
Just then, Chen Xingdong came with Qin Xinlian.
They pushed the door open and went in. Qin Xinlian was worried. When she saw the scene inside, she immediately relaxed.
Ji Changze saw her coming, and with a little smile on his expressionless face, he called out.
It was as if they wouldn’t let him sleep!
Chen Xingdong quickly explained, “Ms. Qin, it’s not that we wouldn’t let him sleep. As you can see, he was already brought to the bedside. He just wouldn’t sleep. Do you have any solution?”
Qin Xinlian’s face showed a relaxed smile, “I know what’s going on, Captain Chen, don’t worry.”
She stepped forward, directly put down the box like folded bedding, and spread it.
She turned to her son and smiled, “Changze, come sleep.”
Chen Xingdong watched as Ji Changze, who had been stubborn to death and refused to sleep, actually took off his shoes and went onto the bed to lie on the pillow and close his eyes.
Qin Xinlian helped him tuck in the four corners of the quilt.
In just a few seconds, Ji Changze’s facial expression had calmed down. His breathing was gentle, and he was fast asleep.
The soldier who was responsible for protecting Ji Changze: “…”
All the many possibilities they thought of was useless. Why did Ji Changze go to sleep the moment his mother came?
Ji Changze was fast asleep, and the three people didn’t dare disturb him. So, they all went out quietly.
Just outside, the few older men greeted them, full of curiosity.
“What’s the matter? Why did the little classmate refuse to sleep?”
He went to sleep as soon as his mother arrived.
Was he too dependent on his mother?
By the way, it was possible.
He had always asked for his mother before, and he refused to stay in Department X without his mother.
Several pairs of eyes were staring at Qin Xinlian, waiting for an answer.
After all, he was too smart not to sleep; it was such a heavy burden on the brain.
Or maybe he was nervous in a strange new place and had to have his mother come and coax him.
Or too eager for knowledge and crazy for reading.
Qin Xinlian was a bit uncomfortable being looked at by them like that.
She coughed dryly, not quite ready to directly speak of her son’s shortcomings, and simply stated vaguely.
“Before, at home. He didn’t sleep until I laid out the quilt for him before going to bed. He never folded the quilt at school, so he slept well all the time. But the quilt you gave him was folded, and he was like that.”
The several people: “… ???”
If it’s folded, just spread it out.
Seeing that they all had black question marks above their heads, Qin Xinlian was even more embarrassed.
She was embarrassed, but she still spoke.
“Changze, he can’t fold quilts, so he also can’t spread quilts.”
“So, when you gave him a folded quilt, and he couldn’t sleep even if he wanted to.”
Chen Xingdong was in a trance and felt that there was a bit of justification.
In this world, there were such wonders.
The genius who shocked the whole State’s X Department could stir the entire international group of influential people if this matter were published.
He was sleepy, but he wouldn’t sleep.
It was actually because … he can’t spread a quilt???
God gave him a great IQ that could soar to the heavens but gave him poor life skills that should be fed to the dogs.
Maybe, that’s how geniuses are.
