Chapter 1 The Extra 24 Hours

Zhang Heng discovered a month ago that he had an extra 24 hours in his day.

The first thing that changed was his watch, a Seastar Automatic III mechanical watch produced by Tissot, which was given to him by his parents in Iceland on his eighteenth birthday.

Very perfunctory Taobao placed the order, the seller shipped it, and the address bar also filled in the wrong class.

Zhang Heng is too lazy to complain about these two. Before he graduated from primary school, these two immortals could not wait to pack up and fly to Europe to start a new life.

The two met at an academic exchange meeting. They are both theologians by profession. As the name suggests, they are experts in the study of religious mythology. Naturally, it is not easy to get along in the great motherland where materialism is in power.

However, unlike those swashbuckling gods, Zhang Heng's parents are indeed real. One of the two graduated from Oxford University, focusing on Norse and Greek mythology, and the other is a postgraduate student at Durham University, focusing on Christian mythology. He has published several papers and is said to be quite influential in the industry.

As a result, after returning home, I couldn't get along.

…………

It happened that Zhang's father's mentor took over a big project and was short of manpower. The two discussed it and left Zhang Heng to his grandfather. After that, he patted his butt and started his research life all over the world.

After that, he would only go home for a year basically, so Zhang Heng spent his childhood with his grandfather.

Maybe it was because I felt ashamed in my heart, but the two immortals didn't owe the old and the young in the expenses.

Not counting tuition and accommodation fees, Zhang Heng's living expenses for a year in college are 30,000 yuan, which is not as good as those of the rich second generation who drive sports cars, but it is quite good among ordinary students.

Back to the point.

The thing about the watch is quite strange. When Zhang Heng woke up and subconsciously planned to read the time, he found that the scale on it had changed from twelve to twenty-four.

Zhang Heng was stunned for a moment, then calmly put the watch back in its place, covered the quilt and continued to sleep.

As a result, one and a half hours later, I sent a text message to my buddy in bed, and regrettably informed him that Gao Shu was named.

Not a dream?

Zhang Heng took ten minutes to wash up, sat at the desk under the bed, and turned on the computer.

He first went to Taobao, searched for double-scale watches, tricked, and the search results showed that - sorry, no related treasures were found.

So Zhang Heng deleted the following ", tricky".

Still no matches.

Isn't it a prank?

Zhang Heng touched his chin. If he didn't take into account the inexplicably extra 12 scales, the time on the watch would match that of the computer. After careful observation, Zhang Heng finally confirmed that the 24-scale watch was the same as the one on the computer. The piece of starfish he had been carrying before was the same thing.

Including the scratches on the case back and the folds on the strap, details that no one but his original owner will know.

Of course, some hardcore players are not ruled out. They can restore the details according to the real objects, but who would have nothing to do when they are full, and do this for a prank, and have the skills and spirit to go to the Forbidden City to repair Are the artifacts bad?

To sum up, Zhang Heng knew that something had happened to him.

Ordinary people will be scared to pee when they encounter this kind of supernatural phenomenon, but Zhang Heng is not an ordinary person, and he has to thank his fairy parents.

Parents always tell the fairy tale of the little rabbit and the squirrel to lull their children to sleep. These two are good, and they don't waste their professional knowledge. Zhang Heng fell asleep listening to Norse mythology and the stories of the Bible when he was a child.

Although he himself did not live up to the nine-year compulsory education in the end and became a glorious materialist, the foundation of his childhood is still there.

Zhang Heng's ability to accept this kind of thing is much stronger than ordinary people.

To explain it with the concept in the popular board game "Call of Cthulhu", that is, his character's SAN value drops very slowly.

Rather than fear, he was more interested in what was happening to him.

There are twelve scales on a normal watch, and the hour hand turns two circles on it to represent the elapsed time of a day, but now his global limited and exclusive version of the twenty-four scale Xinghai can complete a day in just one circle.

From this point of view, it doesn't seem to be a big deal, and after getting used to it, it even feels a little bit.

But Zhang Heng believes that no matter who does all this, he will never be satisfied with just giving him a new dial.

Intuition tells Zhang Heng that really interesting things probably won't happen until the hour hand completes one lap.

There are still about 15 hours before the end of today, of course Zhang Heng does not intend to be idle during this time.

There is no need to go to the advanced math class in the morning. Anyway, it has been called by name. According to the rules of the professor, the score of the final exam will be automatically deducted by 5 points.

This wave can't be saved.

Zhang Heng simply went to the playground to make up for the morning run that fell.

When talking about Zhang Henglai, all the classmates in the class think that this person is very god. No one is willing to get up early after college. Only this guy can insist on running in the morning. , especially don't like parties, but if you get in touch with him, you will find that he is not as cold as he seems, on the contrary, this person is quite interesting.

There has always been a saying among girls that Zhang Heng is versatile. Some people went back to school early on vacation and said that they saw him playing Paganini's Etude "The Bell" alone in the piano room. The piano solo piece adapted from the theme of Nicholas' "Violin Concerto No. 2 in B minor" is famous for its difficulty in performance. It is written in rondo style. musical skills.

Some people said that they had met him at the archery hall for training outside of school, and according to the boy who slept with Zhang Heng privately, this guy seemed to be a member of a rock climbing club.

These are all facts, but none of them are facts.

Zhang Heng is actually not as evil as everyone said. His morning run was forced by his grandfather. After getting used to it, he didn't put it down again. However, his speed and endurance are a bit stronger than ordinary people, which is completely different from those specially recruited sports students Can't compare.

Archery was something he only started trying on a whim recently. He had only taken three classes and was barely a beginner. Rock climbing belonged to the kind of people who lost their enthusiasm after registering for a card and broke up peacefully.

He has been playing the only piano since he was a child, but his level is around the 8th and 9th grades of amateurs. Out of this kind of nonsense.

Therefore, Zhang Heng, who is not an ordinary person, is actually not that ordinary.

He is very interested in many things around him, but unfortunately time is fair to everyone.

Whether you want to value it or not, plan to use every minute productively, or just want to slump in bed, everyone has only 24 hours a day to allocate.

Not a minute, not a second.
