It's a short science fiction story mixed with the afterlife. About a young man who has been able to see spirits since childhood. The story was intentionally written to look as simple as possible. least complicated and easy to read and understand ^_^
Young genius of the future world
A GENIUSYOUNG MAN OF A FUTURE WORLD
In the year 2100, the world in this era is full of many conveniences, whether it be driving a pressurized car, electric power that is used as an alternative to the use of oil, or even driverless cars. Turning on-off the light switch or various electrical equipment that uses a voice recognition system Just use spoken commands instead.
Entering the room using the iris scanning system as verification instead of using a code or key card to enter and exit. Even using a mobile phone uses the iris scanning system to turn the device on and off.
Or like projecting a virtual reality movie into a 360-degree image with oval seats surrounding the center of the movie theater, divided into 10 rows. Robots have been produced to be used as employees in a variety of ways. It has a glass sky elevator that moves horizontally from one point to another as quickly as a rocket. Baby cloning is used for infertile couples.
You will have to make a request to the government. As for the clothing, not much has changed...
I am a young man But please don't tell me your name. If you want to call me whatever you want, feel free to name me, just like in video games where you name the protagonist. Whose history is mine? They called me a child prodigy because I was accepted into a famous university.
in the Faculty of Science at only 14 years of age. Everyone says that I am one of the 1 in a billion children who will be like this. My future will go far. It's up to people to think.
My grandfather's name was Grandpa Finn. I have lived with my grandfather since I was a child. As for my parents, they passed away when I still can't remember, so now I have only my grandfather left. Grandfather loves me very much and his health is not at all like that of an old person. Just like people over 40 years old, even though
My grandfather is already 71 years old. It is probably because my grandfather exercises regularly. My grandfather is both a friend and a father and mother at the same time. And my grandfather was quite a famous writer.
As for my secret that no one has ever known before. That is, I was the first person who could see souls. Initially, I couldn't accept it. feel afraid But as the years have passed and now I've gotten used to it. But before when I still can't remember. I saw someone I didn't know was a man and a woman standing in front of me until I started to remember.
Grandfather brought out a photograph of the two of them for me to look at. I felt very familiar with it. I realized that what I saw at that time were my parents.
And in the year 2100, will people still believe in this story? How much will they believe in goodness? Belief in heaven and hell that stops people from committing sin How many people will still believe it? Whoever hasn't been like me probably doesn't know if it really exists or not?
And then 1 year before that I met the spirit of a child It is the soul of a 5 year old boy. years with the soul of that child's mother The spirit of a child told me that when people die, Will be able to remember every life that he has been born in, all of that child's past lives. He told me that he used to be a scientist.
Named Vincent, his team of researchers was able to invent a device that could easily see the light energy of the air element, which was easy to understand by ordinary people. It is a machine that can see spirits. But he died before this invention could be revealed to the public. He told me that he had been in a plane crash and later died in the hospital.
You want my help, you want me to help you invent this tool. It is also said that this invention has a name called
SOULAR TECH
He told me that I had to take a test to measure my knowledge in the Faculty of Science before it would be reliable. Then I actually got accepted into a famous university in the Faculty of Science. In conclusion, seeing me as a child prodigy in the eyes of others is It was because of the spirit of a 5 year old boy. This year was the one who told me everything.
As for the mother of that child's soul She is also a quiet person. standing behind her child at all times She told me for the first and only time that
“Can you see us too?”
After that, she introduced herself. and told me her name was Ava Then she cried out before she told her that three assailants broke into her house at night. She fought and resisted. She and her child were both stabbed to death by an assailant, and all three assailants are still at large until today.
After that, she refused to say anything again and felt lonely as well. But you are a very beautiful soul. At all. But in those eyes, she looked sad and gentle. It must have been the love a mother has for her little child.
When I was admitted to a famous university in the Faculty of Science, that child's spirit taught me many things. In the beginning, I was not a person who liked science. How many things? But as time passed, I started to like it.
And then, 3 years later, I graduated with a bachelor's degree at the age of 17, continued my studies until I received a master's degree at the age of 19, and continued my studies until I received a doctorate at the age of 21!
When I graduated, I became a doctor in the year 2107. The word "doctor" arose and was first used as a license for professors who had the right to teach in universities in that era. The middle of Europe has now arrived. I became the head of the department to develop new inventions for the scientific community. I had a better position. My grandfather is now 78 years old and he is enjoying a more comfortable life and is still enjoying the works he writes.
And now the time has come. It's time to invent a device that can see spirits, also known as
SOULAR TECH
Sure enough, the child's spirit told me that I had to successfully invent this tool and then use it in court. Catch the culprit who killed me and my mother!
"And do you know the location of the criminal?"
I asked again, and the child's spirit replied:
“Of course! My mother and I had been searching for them long before that…”
Until 1 year has passed, me and Vincent, the young spirit, and other co-workers. can invent tools
SOULAR TECH
It came up until it was successful and now it's time to test this tool.
“Alright! Everyone is ready.”
I said this to my co-workers inside the lab, and they all nodded in response. Before I pulled up the lever switch
...Crack!
and then the machine
SOULAR TECH
has begun to work by the main operation of the machine
SOULAR TECH
This is to release a stream of electromagnetic energy to spread out around the room, which is a wave that can travel without needing a medium. Therefore, it can move in places where there is no air, or to put it simply, it can pass into places that cannot be seen, for example, light waves.
Radio and television waves Or microwave waves, etc., by using frequency waves as a medium to find light energy to come together to create a shape that the machine
SOULAR TECH
This is able to automatically find the weakest energy frequencies that electromagnetic waves can reach.
while the machine
SOULAR TECH
While working inside the laboratory, most of the co-workers stood silently, and some turned left and right in a frenzy. Before someone in the room loudly exclaimed,
“I saw the ghosts of a child and a woman standing there!”
before he raised his hand and pointed towards the corner of the room for everyone to see. The person who spoke up was none other than a close colleague of mine. It was a young man, three or four years older than me, who was the one who connected me. His name was Henry before I introduced him to everyone inside the lab. Get to know the 2 mothers and children.
After some time had passed, there were intense discussions. I came to the conclusion that the child's spirit told me to take the next step, that I would have to invite powerful people within this country to come and see. Then draft laws to bring
SOULAR TECH
to be used in court for consideration of the case next
After reaching the conclusion accordingly Before we parted ways to rest, Henry whispered softly in my ear,
“There is a cat spirit next to the boss!”
I bent my head down to look. and replied,
“I saw it a long time ago, Henry. But thank you very much for telling me.”
“Yes, boss.”
...Speaking of which, I've seen this cat since before I could even remember, and the feeling was familiar to me. But this thought was discarded because I now had important work ahead of me.
Several days later, my department invited the Minister of Science and Technology and the Minister of Justice to visit after showing off the machines.
SOULAR TECH
The work has been completed. The two ministers were shocked. Both of them had a serious debate about whether this invention would have an impact and create problems for society as a whole or not? Until the two ministers were different. Consider it thoroughly and see that its benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Therefore, the draft law was presented to Parliament.
The two ministers have drafted laws to present to Parliament. When the parliament has finished considering Then let the House of Representatives vote to approve or disapprove. The results show that there is a unanimous resolution that can be used.
SOULAR TECH
Can be part of court proceedings
And now the time has come. The time has come to arrest the culprits and punish them. I have asked the court to approve the issuance of arrest warrants for the 3 culprits, all middle-aged men. which includes Mr. Leo Mr. Marcus and Mr. Nicholas
As Vincent, the child's spirit, had told me, the three villains were hiding in an old building on the 4th floor near a slum area. The authorities have used the unit.
S.W.A.T.
Or in its full name it is called a unit.
SPECIAL WEAPONS AND TACTICS
Easily raided and arrested in the middle of the night without wasting any blood on either side. Any party
Until 1 week ago, the machine
SOULARTECH
It has already been installed in the courtroom and of course the first case is the murder case of 2 mothers!
The next morning, I rode in a driverless private car to the court to listen to the trial of two mothers and children, which was considered a serious criminal case in which all three defendants had initially denied the crime because The three defendants did not see any witnesses from the prosecution's side, only the prosecution's lawyers and prosecutors. But when the judge spoke up,
"Recover the witness of the soul of the victim"
That's it! The entire room was stunned by the judge's words as I pulled the switch.
Crack!
Just a few seconds later, the machine
SOULAR TECH
As the work began, everyone in the room was stunned by the spirits of the two mothers and children in front of them!
According to the testimony of the child's soul, it was said that in the year 2099, or 10 years before that, Mr. Nicholas used a knife to stab him and his mother to death together. The couple, Mr. Leo and Mr. Marcus, were accomplices.
When the defense lawyer learned that this was the case, he surrendered the evidence. Therefore, he persuaded the three defendants to confess so that the heavy punishment would become lighter. As for the three defendants, they all turned to look at each other for a moment. Before they all nodded in unison to accept the confession.
After the prosecutors for the prosecution and the lawyers for the defense submitted information to the jury, the 12 jurors completed their analysis of the evidence from both sides. voted and unanimously resolved that all 3 defendants That person is actually guilty.
When the judge has been informed of the result Therefore, all 3 defendants were made to stand up to listen to the court's punishment. Mr. Nicholas was truly guilty of intentionally killing another person. The penalty is death. But the defendant withdrew his original denial and changed it to a confession instead. The sentence was reduced to life imprisonment.
As for Mr. Leo and Mr. Marcus being involved as accomplices, the penalty is 20 years in prison. Both defendants initially denied this. But later it was changed to a confession instead and the sentence was reduced to half. The remaining sentence is 10 years imprisonment instead.
After the judge had finished deciding the punishment for all 3 defendants. He thanked everyone who came today and raised the gavel. before pounding the small circular wooden base three times to end the trial.
Bang! Bang! Pung!...
1 month later at the press room of the Ministry of Science and Technology and at the same time the machine was installed.
SOULAR TECH
It has been completed and today will be the day to tell everyone who created the device.
SOULARTECH
Definitely the real one!
After the Minister of Science and Technology had finished giving his speech, I was the next person to speak. and told all the media who came to make news that
“I am not the person who invented this machine.
SOULAR TECH
This is it!”
Everyone in the statement room was astonished. I proceeded to explain:
“Actually, this machine
SOULAR TECH
It has been built since 2010. 1999 and it has disappeared with time.”
I let out a long breath before continuing.
“Until I met the souls of two mothers and daughters.”
When I finished my sentence I signaled to my close colleague, Henry, to turn on the machine.
SOULAR TECH
up
Henry nodded in agreement. before pulling the lever switch up
...Crack!
As I pulled out an old photograph from the pocket of my gray suit, the ghosts of the mother and daughter appeared.
I showed the media an old photograph that was more than 100 years old that I had been searching for for nearly a month. In the picture there is a group of 4 scientists. The second person from the left wearing glasses is named Vincent, who is a scientist who can invent machines.
SOULAR TECH
You can come up there.
“And the soul of the 5-year-old boy that you all saw in front of you was a scientist named Vincent in his past life!”
When everyone had heard and seen it, They all shouted loudly throughout the press conference room before a female reporter interrupted to say,
“So is there any evidence? to come and prove that it is true!”
Within the announcement room, there was silence for a moment before the child's spirit spoke up.
“...There isn't any. All I can say is that When you die, your soul will be able to remember all of its past lives.”
The truth in this matter It made everyone in the announcement room even more alarmed than the machine itself.
SOULARTECH
Together again
After the announcement has been completed, All the media members had all started to leave and I couldn't help but ask Vincent a question. Who is the young man in the picture, third from the left, who is hugging Vincent intimately? Before Vincent could answer,
“...is a close colleague of mine named Christopher. Unfortunately, he got sick and died first.”
“...So? It's not worth it."
I said, exhaling softly.
Until several months had passed. I never met the spirits of those two mothers again. I could only imagine that the souls of both mother and daughter would have been reborn...
A year later, I was in a relationship with a woman. Her name is Mary and she is as beautiful as an angel. She is 2 years younger than me. She graduated with a degree in animation. She's a good cook, but she's also quiet and modest. My family is more perfect. I love you very much.
And she loves me just as much. Including my grandfather, sometimes she even had my grandfather figure out the plot of an animated cartoon movie for her, until sometimes it became a philosophical animated cartoon movie until the child was 8- 9 years old, I'm still confused when I watch this, Grandpa!
Until finally she became pregnant. And until the day she gave birth, she gave birth to me a very cute and adorable daughter. I named my daughter Elena. Mary and I love our daughter very much. And my grandfather will finally be able to hold my granddaughter...
And many years have passed by. My grandfather passed away peacefully from this world at the age of 87, when Elena was only 7 years old. I feel sad that from now on there will be no more grandfather. While all over the world now have brought machines
SOULAR TECH
It was widely used in deciding cases. Soon, crime around the world was reduced to only 1-2%.
Until time had passed for a long time. In the year 2201, I, in my old age, breathed my last at the age of 114 years, leaving Mary to remain as a spiritual anchor for posterity.
My body lay peacefully inside the glass coffin. and did not feel anything with this body again, with the style of music
BOSSA NOVA
A soft voice rang out throughout the area, and my soul suddenly emerged from my withered body. Then all the memories that I had in every life began to work and in my previous life it caused me to feel extremely painful because it was a betrayal.
The young man shown in the photo hugging a scientist named Vincent is me!
I remember that it was I who built the machine.
SOULARTECH
I got up, and then I was killed by Vincent, a close colleague of mine. He used a poison needle to plunge me hard into the middle of my back when I wasn't paying attention. It made me go into shock. His heart stopped beating and he died in the most excruciating agony.
As for the reason that made me build this machine
SOULARTECH
I came up because I wanted to see Luka. The spirit of the cat that I love has risen once more. Luka is a male cat. As for the name Luca, it means light. And now I understand that the cat spirit next to me I have always been there since childhood. It was the cat that I loved with all my heart in my past life!
Maybe the soul of a 5-year-old boy knew who I was from the beginning because even Luca still remembered me in this life. As for the reason why I was able to see spirits in this life, it might have been because I had a side effect from the machine.
SOULAR TECH
It was possible in a past life.
It's now arrived. I don't feel sorry or angry with anyone anymore. Who will build the machine?
SOULAR TECH
Once it came up, it didn't matter to me anymore. I only wish that everyone on this planet could take advantage of it and I would be satisfied. I thought silently by myself for a long time before a voice called out to me from nearby.
"meaow..."
The voice calling to greet me was Luka. There was happiness in his eyes as I lifted Luka into my arms. I rubbed his head and scratched his chin gently. Before I embraced Luka with nostalgia and concern, now in my feelings It was like I hadn't seen Luka in a long time and tears started flowing without me realizing it and then my soul walked out of sight along with Luka. The soul of my beloved cat who lives happily within my embrace.
