"My brother's magic is so popular that he was received to a very mysterious place to perform. If I want to see him once, I need to fly for half a day to a place called China and walk a long way to a big amusement city called Tsinghua." that day, Elizabeth wrote in her diary.

A few years later, China

A bright old Skoda red coach was driving on a winding mountain road.

The mountains in early spring are constantly retreating outside the window. At first, there were some furry hills. Shrubs had begun to sprout and produce yellow flowers the size of rice grains. Slowly, the mountains get higher and higher, the vegetation becomes thin and dry, and winter snow remains on some peaks. There are more and more stones on the roadside. The black rocks hang high above the road and seem to fall at any time.

The mountains darkened the light in the long-distance bus, making the already crowded carriage even more crowded. The car was full of villagers returning home. The old watches put their baggage at their feet, their shoulder poles across their knees, holding chickens and geese, and the little pigs stuffed under their seats, talking loudly in their hometown dialect. After a while, someone would push open the glass window and spit out a mouthful of phlegm. The cold mountain wind swept in at once, slightly diluting the strong smell in the car.

In the last row of the coach sat a thin foreign woman with a girl in her arms. Both of them are dressed very differently. They are obviously not locals. The woman sat with empty eyes and a heavy heart. The girl looked around excitedly and twisted around in her mother's arms. She felt fresh about everything.

"Elizabeth, don't move! It's here!"

They got off the coach. On the hillside not far away, there is a palace like building. The colorful walls are extremely high, as if they had been repaired to the top of the mountain, and the walls are covered with layers of coiled slogans.

Mother took a deep breath, firmly grasped Elizabeth's hand and walked into the gate of the University.

Opposite the registration office of the reception room, several strong migrant workers are trimming trees with ladders. Seeing someone come in, the migrant workers glared ferociously. Elizabeth was not frightened at all. Instead, she stared back and raised her small hand like a gun: "Pa Pa Pa!"

The mother who had just finished the registration had a dark face and pulled Elizabeth away.

Mother asked Elizabeth to wait outside the meeting room for a while. She and her brother had something important to talk about. Elizabeth had to play with her cell phone in the hallway outside the door and keep pricking up her ears to listen to the movement in the room.

The room has been quiet. The mother and son sat silently across the table. Mother's eyes were red, and Norrington had obviously cried. Across the table, the image of sunshine is different from that of the relay a few months ago. He is much more handsome and thin. He is much more sensible, but he also wears a pair of lifeless glasses. His hands are buttoned on his knees, making people feel like communicating with the police.

These rough hands are holding a piece of paper, which says: withdrawal agreement.

Norrington looked down. "My problem. It's my problem."

"Remember, you ruined our family!"

In his mother's trembling voice, Norrington struggled to pick up his pen and write down his name.

When the door opened, Elizabeth jumped in and said, "brother, let's go home. I don't want to stay here. The globe is broken. You have to repair it for me."

The mother said angrily, "your brother can't repair the globe for you. He has to stay and repair him in China for the rest of his life."

"My brother won't go home today. I believe my sister can repair the globe alone." Norrington forced out a smile.

Norrington said bluntly, "I won't. director Thatcher said there was something wrong with my brain."

"That bitch is talking nonsense!" Norrington suddenly raised his voice, and his pent up emotion burst out.

"Remember: don't believe what others say. You are the smartest child in the world." he raised his right hand and nodded his head with his index finger. "As long as your brain keeps thinking, you will never be wrong. You can not only fix the globe, but also do anything on the ball."

The mother was impatient and said angrily, "here we go again. What's all this mess?" then she dragged Elizabeth: "go, go..."

Elizabeth turned away from her mother's hand and said stubbornly, "I don't! I'm going to sleep with my father and brother at night."

Mother pulled down her face and leftGet angry. Norrington hurriedly squatted down, took his sister's hand and said softly, "how about playing a game? You go with your mother and your brother takes another way to see who gets home first? My brother has a secret weapon - the fastest spaceship in the universe, which is faster than the speed of light."

He nodded his head with his index finger and blinked: "think about what to do. I'm going to get the spaceship. I'm sure to win you..."

Elizabeth grinned, raised her right hand, nodded her head with her index finger, and called out in a long, childish voice, "I - win - you." as she shouted, the man had run out first.

Looking at his sister's rapidly disappearing figure, Norrington's bright eyes darkened in an instant. His strong fighting spirit could no longer support him. He collapsed on the chair and his voice was full of bitterness: "I'm most sorry for my sister. I can only thank you for your trouble."

The mother slowly got up, pursed her lips, smiled and said, "don't worry, I won't let her become like you."

The door of the meeting room is facing the playground. A fat PE teacher is dozing against the door. When he sees the people inside coming out, he slowly stands up, takes off a whistle from his waist, blows the whistle lazily, and turns around to let the students run thousands of meters.

At this time, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly sounded on the playground. Norrington's drooping head jerked up - a short figure rushed over in the flying dust.

"Mom, come on, don't let your brother surpass..."

Elizabeth's excited cry suddenly stopped when she saw her brother running step by step and endlessly around the unknown 100 meter track. She stopped, got it.

Time has solidified.

Elizabeth suddenly started running again. She ran all the way to her brother and raised more dust. She ran through the gate, through the school bulletin board, through the working workers, through the students in Physical Education... Nothing can hinder the child!

She ran all the way to her brother, hugged his leg and never gave up.

The two held each other tightly.

Mom looked, the teacher looked, the students looked, the famous workers in the distance looked, the surrounding mountains looked... Everyone looked at it silently.
