I really don't want to be a novelist

Chapter 65 The Last Dignity of Humanity
"Ok?"

In the text, the plot continues to advance and unfold.

The protagonist Xu Hua woke up again from his sleep in the official residence.

During this time, he has become familiar with the furnishings in this simple house,
In the current state of blindness, this relatively small room makes him feel more secure... He can easily touch the things next to him.

Be aware of your surroundings and your own presence.

But at the same time, he was also a little irritable.

He didn't know what he could do.

For human society under the current situation, it seems that there is not much need for an astronomy and cosmophysicist.

After waking up from bed again,

First, he lay on the bed and paused for a while, feeling a little agitated thinking about everything.

Immediately afterwards, there seemed to be a subconscious feeling that something had changed.

By the way, it seems a little quiet outside today.

It is rare that there are no clamor of experts and professors discussing some things,

"Well... not at all."

After listening carefully, I could vaguely hear some familiar voices talking to each other.

But it seems that these experts and professors did not communicate in the corridor outside the house today.
But in some professor's house?
Or did I get up a little early today?

Xu Hua groped and found the mobile phone which was placed in a fixed position,

Touch the time on the phone screen.

'fourteen past seven'

The announcement of the visually impaired mode of the mobile phone sounds,

But Xu Hua couldn't help but pause,
Frowning, he began to feel that something was wrong.

The location of the sound from the mobile phone seems to be farther than usual, so that when it reaches my ears, the sound is much weaker.

But the phone is in his hand.

Just when Xu Hua was trying to adjust the volume of the phone.

There was a knock at the door in the passage outside,

The knock on the door was a little far away and a little weak.

It seems that someone is knocking on the door of the next room?

But then,

"Professor Xu Hua...Professor Xu Hua. The head of state informed everyone to hold a meeting..."

The people outside were calling him himself.

Xu Hua, who already realized what was wrong, groped from the bed and stood up,

Immediately after, with a little panic and panic, he almost staggered to the door of the room,
He put his hand on the door of the house.

Feel the vibration of the door.

It's not that the sound is far away.

It's something wrong with my ears.

Xu Hua's heart is like a bottomless abyss,
Let his heart keep sinking, but he still can't step on it to the bottom.

……

"...experts, professors. You are the most intelligent people on the planet."

"...Through your efforts, we have restarted the work of restoring production and civilization in the dark during this period of time..."

"...Even though it can be predicted that our production capacity will greatly decline, our technological level will decline greatly, and our civilization may regress...But we are still gradually recovering certain social capabilities from the dark groping...Thank you Everyone."

The meeting still seemed to start in that large conference room.

The Führer's familiar voice came from the front of the conference table,
Xu Hua was sitting at the conference table, already wearing a pair of hearing aids.

There was a lot of exhaustion in the head of state's words, and all the experts, professors and related personnel present at the meeting listened, but they were silent.

Because most of them already know that the head of state urgently summoned all the experts and professors here,
I don't just want to thank a group of experts and professors for their recent contributions.

And after solemnly thanking all the experts and professors,
The head of state also fell into a long silence.

In the meeting room, dead silent,

The protagonist Xu Hua couldn't help putting a hand on the conference table in front of him.

at last,

After a while of silence, the head of state spoke again.

"...Everyone, we have encountered a change again. While some of our people are losing their vision, their hearing is also gradually declining, and the number of people who have lost their hearing is gradually increasing."

The head of state said aloud,

All the experts and professors in the conference room fell silent.

"...This time, everyone's hearing loss did not happen overnight, but gradually spread. We don't know how it spread, nor what caused it."

"...The first people to experience hearing loss should be around the seventh or eighth day after the loss of vision for all humans. At the beginning, only a small number of people should have hearing loss, and it is not serious."

"Because of the loss of vision, our ability to monitor and collect information from the entire human society has weakened. Until now, the population with hearing loss has spread severely, and a large number of people have gone from hearing loss to complete loss of hearing."

Having said that, the head of state paused.

There was an unmistakable exhaustion in his tone.

"... you experts and professors are the wisest of men and should know what this means."

"...loss of hearing and vision at the same time means that we even lose the ability to perceive the presence of other people. The possibility of cooperation between people is lost."

"Our human civilization, our human society is useless."

"And the individual, having lost both of these senses at the same time, has difficulty surviving."

"...When hearing loss spreads to all human beings, we may no longer be able to say that human civilization still exists."

The head of state groped for the conference table in front of him, stroked it lightly,

Heartbroken, even hopeless.

"...Guys, what are we going to do... Are we going to do something?"

Regarding the question of the head of state,
Everyone present was silent.

Xu Hua, who was wearing a hearing aid, seemed to hear crying.

But after a while, the crying stopped.

Xu Hua couldn't help helping the hearing aid next to his ear, fearing that he had completely lost his hearing.

Just following closely, he stopped moving again.

There is no need for this anymore, so what if I can still hear it now...

"...what are we going to do?"

A professor's sad and unspeakable rhetorical question sounded again in the conference room,

It seems to be asking yourself, and it seems to be asking other people,

"What else can we do?"

"...we can't do anything."

This is the desperate voice of the participating experts.

"...Maybe it's like this now, and there won't be any big confusion anymore."

"...Because we are about to lose even the ability to create chaos."

Only a few professors spoke aloud,
Other more participants just fell silent.

Maybe I have completely despaired of this cruel reality.

Finally, after another long silence,
It was the head of state who raised his spirits at the end and spoke to all the participants.

"... Ladies and gentlemen, I hope that you will continue to restore some production capacity in various fields as much as possible, and I will stick to my job."

"...Maybe our human civilization is about to be destroyed, but I hope that when it is destroyed, we can retain some final dignity for her."

"...Our human civilization has come from the wilderness, from slash-and-burn farming, step by step to today."

"...We have created a prosperous civilization, and I don't want the collection to be ruined at the last moment of civilization. Please give her the last bit of dignity."

the head of state speaks,

All the experts and professors present at the meeting were silent at first, and then someone agreed.

"...Okay...I will continue to develop the clinical medical field, the detection and treatment of some diseases that are losing vision."

"...well...we'll keep doing this job..."

A group of experts and professors, the participants agreed one after another,

It is no longer for the revival of human civilization,
Just to preserve a trace of dignity for human civilization at the end.

Maybe no one can remember these things, but the universe will.

At last,
Xu Hua also spoke out.

"...Maybe we can mobilize physical instruments that are still functioning or instruments in other fields to detect changes in some physical constants at this moment."

"...Whether we encounter natural disasters or man-made disasters. There must be a scientific rule that we cannot understand is changing at this moment, which affects us. Our hearing loss means that some changes are happening at this moment."

Xu Hua said.

"...Good. Are there any specialist professors willing to undertake this work?"

"……Let me do it."

The head of state agreed to Xu Hua's proposal, and someone responded at the same time.

In fact, this is meaningless,

Even if humans detect a certain data change, what is the significance for human civilization that may be about to perish tomorrow.

Humanity has long run out of time.

But none of the experts mentioned it.

Because it's just to leave some dignity to civilization.

"...in the evening, I'll go on the radio and explain it to everyone."

"...At the same time, all the people who participated in the maintenance of social order and maintained the basic operation of this society are also given a holiday, so that they can go home and reunite with their families."

"... You can also continue working without being busy, and get together with your family... At least, listen to what they have to say."

Thus ended the meeting.

Xu Hua, wearing a hearing aid, stood up,

Silent, groping to return to the room where I lived,

Other experts, professors, and participants also got up and left.

After Xu Hua walked a few steps, he bumped into something suddenly,
There shouldn't be anything here,
Oh.
It turned out to be a person.

A professor walking in front of Xu Hua stopped abruptly and stood where he was.

So that when Xu Hua reached out to touch him, he touched him.

Not knowing what happened, Xu Hua also slowed down,
Then, he heard the professor's shout.

"...I can't hear you anymore!"

It was after this cry that the professor stopped speaking.

Xu Hua, who happened to touch him with his hand, could feel that the professor's whole body was trembling.

Xu Hua paused, stretched out his hand,
He shook heavily on the professor's shoulder,

Let him feel that there are people around him.

The professor seemed to let out a long breath, and the trembling all over his body gradually stopped.

"……thanks, thanks……"

The professor thanked him, but Xu Hua heard that the professor was only in such a short period of time,
The words spoken have changed slightly, out of shape.

Perhaps the hearing loss was more severe than expected.

In the end, it was a soldier who helped to bring the professor back to the house where the professor lived.

Xu Hua paused on the spot,

He also fumbled, and returned to the room where he lived.

First groping for the chairs and stools in the room,

He sat on the stool, followed by lying flat on the bed again.

He didn't close the door again,

Ordinarily, under such circumstances, there is no sense of security with the door open.
But he doesn't seem to care anymore.

Just wearing hearing aids, listening to some voices in the hallway outside the house, in the next room,
The professors and experts in the next room lived here not long after, and the officials took their wives, children and relatives into this person to live with them.

And Xu Hua has been alone.

At this moment, a professor in the next room on the left seemed to be whispering something to his family after returning to the room.

And in the room on the right next to it, there was some movement again,

It seems that the staff who delivered the dinner here entered the next room.

"...Is there any medicine?"

In the room on the right next door is also a single professor who is almost 60 years old.

He appears to be talking to the staff who deliver the dinner.

"...what medicine?"

"...If I use a knife, I always feel a little afraid of pain. I want to retain some dignity. Is there any medicine?"

Another sentence from the professor silenced the delivery person.

In the end, the person who delivered the food just responded,

"Have."

"...There is still some hope. Don't worry."

"...I know. I'll wait until the last moment."

After a brief conversation, the room next door became quiet again.

Xu Huaping lay down, listening to the conversation between the two rooms next door, silent.

……

"Seven Days of Hell"

The three chapters that were first released in the early morning are written here.

It caused a lot of readers to scold Ji Zhuo for a long time.

Ye Linghan also saw this place before,
I couldn't help but unite closely with the people in the group, and scolded the dog author out of chapter dog together.

this time,
Ji Zhuo actually updated again today,
Tell Ye Linhan to take this sentence back for the time being, and let's talk about it after reading the dog's update today.

Perhaps this is the dog author's addition to so many rewards last night.

"Human dignity."

Take a look at the chapter title of this chapter.

Ye Linhan excitedly held the phone again and continued to look at it.

……

Contents of this chapter.

The plot is mainly to carry on the above,

After determining that humans are beginning to experience hearing loss again, and the hearing loss population is spreading disaster,

After the meeting,

until the evening.

The protagonist Xu Hua is in a room with the door open,
The dinner brought by the staff was put on the table, and it may have been cold.

Xu Hua was standing by the window in this room.

According to the weather forecast, today's capital should be sunny,

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun will be sprinkled under the window through the window.

Xu Hua can't see the light, but can feel it.

So he waited here.

But it seems that after the blindness of all human beings, the weather warning system has gradually experienced problems.

There is no sun today,
Feeling the cool evening wind blowing,

Probably the setting sun has long been covered by dark clouds, and even the afterglow has not been swayed.

Xu Hua couldn't help stretching out his hand to push open the window,
Go out the window and reach out,
But still can't feel the light.

At this time, for no reason, he felt a little pain in his heart, even despair.

This was something he didn't have when he found out that his hearing was declining.

"……what!"

Xu Hua couldn't help but let out a cry.

I couldn't help but get red eyes.

Light too!

Light too!

And the sun!

Humanity is coming to an end.

Humanity is coming to an end...

Then gradually let go of his hand, Xu Hua raised his head, trembling all over.

And at this time,
The Führer's final radio address,

It also rang everywhere, and reached Xu Hua who was wearing a hearing aid.

"... Dear friends, comrades."

"I'm Qin Anmin."

"I will finally give this speech to you on behalf of myself and human society."

"...Maybe someone already knows what happened to us again, maybe there are friends who don't know."

"...But please friends who can still hear this speech can finish these words."

"Our human civilization was born in ancient times, from drinking blood, to slash-and-burn farming, and then to the birth of science and technology. We live in most places in the world. We gave birth to excellent civilizations. On this planet, we left bright traces."

"...And today, maybe tomorrow, maybe in the near future, our civilization will come to an end."

"...but I wish, I wish you, as human beings, or please, please, as human beings."

"When our civilization is about to end, we can preserve the last dignity of our civilization."

"...Maybe no one will remember that our civilization once existed, but the universe will remember what a brilliant civilization we used to be."
