任谁也想不到吧，一个普通初中出来的孩子竟会突然跨级，升入首都中央大学——甚至直接作为研究人员！赛莉娜一直看起来很聪明，但从未表现得“非常有天赋”，记忆中的她几乎永远都在努力学习。或许她是不想伤害任何人的感情，毕竟，聪明得不像人类肯定不会让她的朋友们感觉好受吧？安娜现在意识到：赛莉娜从小就懂得照顾他人情绪。

自那时，她们开始用通讯软件交流。岁月流逝，随赛莉娜的成就越高，安娜的自我怀疑也越多，她最终认为不能再打扰她，在一次小争吵后单方面断了联系。

如今八年过去，安娜也终于获得了首都的工作机会，她想再次见见老朋友。而且，听闻赛莉娜不久前就某种病症发表了新论文，好像在医学界引起轰动呢？安娜不懂。可她们毕竟是最好的朋友——噢，她希望不是自以为是——她在书店里来回踱步呀，终于选了一本看起来名气响亮的书当作礼物。

“嗨，安娜。”

赛莉娜温声说道，脸上挂着一抹笑意，将老友领了进去。多年不见，她依旧戴着那副有点滑稽的粉色眼镜，用着轻松愉快的语气，仿佛她们分别还在昨天。

安娜舒了口气，递出礼物：“赛、赛莉娜，这本书……是神经学相关的，店员说是‘百周年特别再版’。”说到这，她这才忽然反应，“啊……一百年前的医学书，当今还、还有用吗？”

赛莉娜熟练地翻开这本书，正好翻到中间讲重点的一篇，“谢谢你的礼物，安娜。一百年前的人和现在的人并没有差异，理论是能沿用的。”她安慰道。 以上内容来自hlib.cc。更多中文H小说尽在hlib.cc。

Anna stood nervously in front of the door, holding the gift wrapped present in her clenched hands and breathing slightly faster than normal. Her mind raced from one possibility to the next of what this conversation could become, but, she knew she wanted to be here waiting to see her old friend once more. When they were kids, they were so close, they talked about everything. But... How many years has it been since the last time Anna had seen Selina in person?

She remembered it like it was yesterday. No one would have thought that a seemingly ordinary junior high school kid could suddenly jump to the Capital Medical University. Not even as a student, but as a researcher! Selina had always seemed smart, yes, but never "highly gifted". Selina never wanted to hurt anyone’s' feelings, and being smarter than everyone else surely wouldn't have made her friends feel very good? Anna realized now that her best friend at the time had just done what she thought was right to be a good friend and not make anyone feel less than her.

When she first moved to the central city, the two friends had used messaging software to communicate. As the years passed, though, and as Serina became more and more successful, Anna's self-doubts mounted, and she eventually decided that she should not keep disturbing this genius and unilaterally cut off contact suddenly one evening after a small argument.

But now, about eight years since that happened, Anna had finally been offered a job in the capital as well, and she wanted to see her old best friend again. She had heard that Selina had just published a new paper on a rare disease that had caused a stir in the medical world, and Anna thought it would be a good time to come by to see hello for the first time in a while. Anna knew little regarding academic matters, but, they had been best friends for a time, and she wanted to finally rekindle the friendship she had cherished so long ago.

"Hi, Anna." Selina said warmly, a smile creeping across her face as she opened the door wider and ushered her old friend inside. The first thing Anna noticed was that, after all these years, the "smartest woman in the capital" was still wearing her funny pink glasses. She chuckled to herself quietly as Selina stepped outside and she listened as Selina spoke in a lighthearted way as if it were only yesterday that they had parted.

Anna breathed a sigh of relief because her friend didn't seem angry, and she took out her carefully chosen gift to present to her. "Selina……well this book... Er... It's neurological... It's supposed to be...? I think? At least the clerk said it is. And he says this is a ... sort of 'centennial edition'?"

"Ah... Are medical books from... the 2000s? I think? Still useful today?"

Selina laughed and gladly took the tome from her friend's nervous grasp, flipping through its pages and skimming the chapters with a trained eye. After what felt like ages to Anna, the researcher's eyes light up as she found an important chapter in the middle of the publication regarding genetic diseases. "Well!" Selina said excitedly. "This is fascinating! This directly pertains to my research! You got me a foundational book within my field! I've never seen one in person- only read excerpts and references from other texts!"

Selina hesitated, laughed, and closed the book to warmly look into her friends' eyes. "Thanks for the present, Anna. It is good to see you again, after all these years. You didn't have to bring me a gift, though! Seeing you is gift enough..." She smiled, then, and stepped back to open the door to her home, inviting her friend inside. "And don't worry! Humans today are mostly built the same way they were back then I would like to think. Certainly, the theory can still be used! And, at the very least, I really appreciate your thoughtfulness in finding this."
