June 16th at 11:36pm, Saturday, Shanghai. The weather is not good tonight. It coincides with the rainy season. Since the evening, there has been intermittent light rain over the city. After nightfall, the rain gradually intensified. The raindrops formed a line and enveloped Shanghai. In a layer of water curtain.There is a thick humidity in the air, and when the wind blows, it makes people feel extraordinarily cold.The Meteorological Observatory said that the temperature at night may drop to about 18 to 20 degrees, which is the so-called "cold water yellow plum". Tang Jing sat alone in front of the computer desk in the bedroom, staring at the screen intently, with a concentrated expression, typing on the keyboard with both hands quickly, and moving the mouse from time to time, so busy that she even paid attention to the hot cocoa placed next to the case. Not a sip.Half-peeled apples and fruit knives were placed on the plate, and the skins of the apples had turned yellow.

Today is the weekend, and her parents go out to have a party with friends, and she is the only one left at home to surf the Internet. Tang Jing came into contact with the Internet two years ago. At that time, she had just finished the high school entrance examination, and it was a time when she was free.Her friend taught her how to surf the Internet, and she was almost immediately smitten with the novelty, giving herself the online name "Little Blues Nimbus."The illusory world of countless avatars is so beautiful, Tang Jing feels unrestrained and extremely free there, and there are endless topics to talk about with netizens who have never met before, and the fun is endless.

Since then, surfing the Internet has become an indispensable part of Tang Jing's life, especially after buying a computer at home, her desire to surf the Internet is out of control, almost to the point where she forgets to eat and sleep without going out. Today, she sat in front of the computer as soon as she opened her eyes in the morning, and spent the whole day on the Internet. In the evening, after making a bowl of instant noodles and eating carelessly, she went back to her bedroom, and sat until half past eleven. At this time, the rain outside the house was getting heavier, knocking on the window glass continuously, making a dull "dong dong" sound.Tang Jing felt very annoying, and it was dark outside, which was also a little scary.So she took advantage of the gap between chatting with friends on QQ, flexed her sore fingers, turned up the sound of the stereo, and selected a few fast-paced songs in WINAMP.The sound of the music quickly overwhelmed the sound of raindrops, and the atmosphere in the bedroom suddenly became lighter.

Tang Jing let out a sigh of satisfaction, rubbed her red eyes, took a sip of hot cocoa from her cup, and immediately turned her attention back to the Internet.Her fingers tapped the keyboard lightly, dazzling.After two years of surfing the Internet, Tang Jing has perfected her fingering skills, and now she can easily chat with more than 20 people at the same time without confusion. At some point, Tang Jing felt something was wrong.Her friends on QQ began to complain that her reply speed was too slow or they could not receive her words at all, but she obviously responded to the other party's soon after receiving the message.

"QQ is hungry again." Tang Jing frowned slightly. QQ is currently the most popular chat software in China. When the QQ server responsible for processing information transfer is too busy, the information sent by individual users will occasionally be lost.Today is the weekend, and there are astronomical numbers of people online, such small accidents happen from time to time.Tang Jing used to call this kind of accident "QQ is hungry" and "QQ is eating". But this is the first time she has seen such a continuous eating situation like today.This kind of conversation couldn't go on at all, and soon all the friends on the list stopped chatting, their avatars stopped jumping, and the whole QQ became silent, only a row of offline avatars remained motionless, and each avatar looked pale. Gray.

Tang Jing curled her lips, thinking that this server is really annoying, it's a rare weekend, and they are chatting happily.But she had no choice but to hang on to QQ and browse the forums she frequented boredly while listening to music. After about five minutes, the music suddenly stopped, and there was a sharp electronic whistle from the speaker, and then the whole room fell into silence for an instant. Her first reaction was that the computer had crashed, but before she could warm it up, there was a "beep" sound from the speaker that had just been silent.This is the unique sound of QQ, which means "someone sends you a message".Tang Jing was very familiar with this, so without thinking about it, she pressed the hotkey CTRL+Z to extract the information, and then she was taken aback, because she had never seen this avatar that appeared in her friend list.The avatar was blurry, faintly reddish in the lead ash, and it was blank where the name and QQ number should have been displayed.

(2001-06-17 00:00:00) hit the road Looking at the information box on the screen, Tang Jing felt an unexplained chill on her back. At the same time, a chill rose from her tailbone and climbed up her back to the top of her head. A layer of cold sweat began to break out on her forehead. "It's just an illusion, it's an illusion." Tang Jing tried to convince herself while reaching out to the keyboard. (2001-06-17 00:00:07) Blues Rain Cloud who are you? no answer. The cup next to the case suddenly trembled, and the cocoa in the cup made ripples, and it was still rainy outside.Suddenly, the CD-ROM automatically popped out with a "swish", and a deep "beep" sound came out from the speaker, and the other party finally replied, Tang Jing hurriedly turned her head to look, and her pupils narrowed rapidly in the next moment ...
