Chapter 43 A Gift Across Time

Xu Ying lay on her back on the bed and said lazily, "It's very important, and only you and I can listen to it."

Mu Zhengguang collected his scattered thoughts, looked at her and nodded.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and were very cautious, making sure everything was safe before starting the conversation.

"Yeah. Everything is put away. What power did you get from the yearbook?"

"The yearbook contains wishes and messages. As time goes by, some of them come true, while others do not. Time itself is an excellent 'running force'. It can make the marks on paper fade, and can take people to the past and the future. I retrieve the time clues and use them to strengthen myself."

"What form of reinforcement?"

"The formula for calculating universal gravitation is F=GMm/r, where G represents the gravitational constant, which remains constant throughout the universe. But it is the 'constant' that I want to change."

Changing the "constant" involves too wide a range, and it can even be said to break through human common sense. It is not credible and the success rate is not high. Thinking of this, Mu Zhengguang suddenly felt thrilling and asked with concern: "Is there a basis? To what extent can it be strengthened?"

"I have no basis for this. I am just guessing. There is more than one constant associated with the asymptotic domain. Or maybe I am wrong. It is a variable, so I can change it. I can't say to what extent, but it is probably about 1%."

The research institute had advanced experimental equipment and the secret guidance of the Star Lord. They spent several months measuring many variables and constants.

But Xu Ying, by just guessing and thinking, found the principle of the domain. Although it was still very superficial and rough, she was able to connect the formula of universal gravitation with the formula of the asymptotic domain principle, set variables and constants, and put it into practice, which was ahead of most people.

Mu Zhengguang certainly admired his classmates' thinking ability, but after going through so much trouble, a 1% improvement was not very obvious. Although the yearbook was a pleasant surprise, this "pleasure" was too small and could not be replicated. He asked, "Only 1%?"

"Well, 1% is good enough. I'll add more when I have the chance later. You can also look for similar things to see if you can gain strength. Oh, I have something to give you." Xu Ying rolled half a circle on the bed, then lay there for half a second, got up, opened the closet, and took out her school uniform.

Mu Zhengguang recognized it at a glance as a primary school uniform, which he bought when he was in grade 4. In the six years of primary school, he bought four sets of school uniforms, two sets each in grade 1 and grade 4, divided into summer and autumn clothes.

As the windmill turned, the color and shape of the school uniform changed beyond recognition.

He was deeply surprised, his eyes wide open: You use the yearbook to strengthen yourself, this behavior is counterintuitive, but you have your own rules and reasons, so it barely makes sense. Is the change of school uniforms also your rule? What a magical power!

"Elementary school uniforms are the same for both boys and girls, you can wear whatever you want. Are you satisfied with the color and style?" Xu Ying pinched the shoulders of the T-shirt with both hands, shook it gently, spread it out, and placed it on the bed.

Black and white gradient short-sleeved T-shirt.

Mu Zhengguang was very puzzled. People always say that people wear new clothes during the New Year, but this dress is not only not new, but also...

"Isn't this the same one I usually wear?"

Xu Ying simply pointed out the difference between the two: "The materials are different. I see you wear this dress often, so you must like it very much."

"Yes. Thank you very much."

"You're welcome. I can't even tear your trousers apart. You must be very uncomfortable wearing them. Try this one, it's made of pure cotton. If it doesn't fit, I'll alter it. I'm going to go out now, you change your clothes."

Xu Ying left after saying this, leaving him alone in the room. Mu Zhengguang quickly changed into his "new clothes". The school uniform was made of pure cotton, and the new clothes made from the school uniform were also made of pure cotton. Compared to the clothes he wore before, this set of clothes was softer.

On a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, Xu Yingze saw that his black and white gradient pants seemed to be stuck to his body, so she pulled them and felt like rough adhesive tape. She didn't like the pants very much, but the pants were not hers, and her classmates often wore them, so she didn't dare to say anything.

Mu Zhengguang suddenly felt horrified: I have four gradient suits, and the black and white gradient pants are the most uncomfortable to wear. Have you noticed this? Your insight is rare in the world! You are very considerate to me, but I only give you the silver key and the golden hairpin? This is terrible. Fortunately, everything is still in time. I am not as good as you in academic performance, daily life, and way of thinking, but my existence is no less than your operation. As long as I am careful enough, I can also make exquisite gifts.

He changed his clothes, walked out of the room, and shook his arms excitedly: "The clothes fit very well."

Xu Ying saw that he liked the new suit, and her eyes were filled with joy, but at this moment, business should be the priority. She said, "It's good as long as it fits. Let's go inside, there are some things that have not been resolved."

The secret talks began again.

Mu Zhengguang asked her: "What is the principle of your making clothes?"

She said: "It's very complicated. I turn my clothes into what I want them to be. It involves running force, time, and the silver key. You can think of the clothes as a tree. The tree grew for seven years, was pruned and decorated, and became what it is now."

Mu Zhengguang sighed, "I guessed that it would take a lot of effort for you to tailor the clothes, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult." He sighed, "It's not easy to grow with time, trim with running power, and decorate with silver keys!"

"This suit has some other benefits besides being made of pure cotton. You can use the power of existence to remove dust, and it can be restored at any time if it gets torn or faded, but generally don't use it this way."

"Amazing!"

"Of course. To help you, I have to be very capable. By the way, thank you for the silver key. I also made a set of clothes for myself. Please go out for a while."

Xu Ying cut the junior high school uniform into a loose and thick white T-shirt and gray trousers. This is how she dresses every day, and the style does not change when she cuts clothes by hand. After changing clothes, she folded her classmate's clothes, found a plastic bag to put them in, and handed it to him: "Little classmate, do I look good?"

Mu Zhengguang was in a trance for a moment. This name was hard to describe: it was more intimate than before, but at the same time, it was more taken advantage of. But, so what? As long as I can still take advantage of you, it doesn't matter.

He said, "It looks good. It looks very good."

"Yeah, I think so. I'm not in a hurry to go back to the county. If you have something to do, you can leave first."

"I have something to do. Bye."

"OK, bye."

The "something" that Mu Zhengguang mentioned was not the New Year's test fee. It was a rare opportunity to return to Harada Town. It would be too ruthless to leave without staying at home for a while and talking to grandpa and grandma. I would definitely feel regretful and guilty when I think about it later.

This wait lasted until after dinner.

Xu Ying happened to think the same thing. The two of them took the last bus into the city at the same time. It was the first day of the new year, fulfilling and happy.
