Features: I thought every day of the past was actually real, just that I wasn't there. Fang Qiangqiang, however, was never absent for a second. I have a magical ability to speed up time, leaving whenever I encounter awkwardness, danger, or boredom. But he had no escape, spending every minute and second. I feel I missed many important moments and opportunities, so I can't truly say I understand life. It's like a train passing through chaotic thoughts—memories gradually connect piece by piece until the mischievous boy Fang Qiangqiang appears, like an innocent child. What's harder than retrieving childhood memories is describing them: the fleeting, unclear thoughts, as well as the unique atmosphere, sounds, and light. This time, Wang Shuo's words are filled with deep emotion. Everyone is a history and a spiritual journey of growth. Fang Qiangqiang to you and me is like humanity looking back at its prehistoric period, showing enduring charm because it is never to return. I know his despair—such a long, endless, and irreplaceable life is truly overwhelming. I think I have a destination in the future. He often guesses who I am and what I'm doing. At that time, I didn't know my mission was to record him. If I had known, I wouldn't have been so willful and would have stayed more time by his side. Chen Nanyan entered my life very early, so early that I can't remember the time. Back then, I slept in the same room as her sister Chen Beinian in a military-run orphanage in New Beijing. That dormitory stretched endlessly.
