"So when you go out for a meal, you earn back 20 million?"

At home, He Xiao and Zhang Ya were sitting on the sofa drinking tea, and after hearing him tell the process, the queen couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

Eating 20 million in one meal is really not something that ordinary people can do.

"Huh?? , anyway, I have nothing to do now, compared to running a business and acting in a variety show, it is better to film with Liu Haibo. ”

In fact, He Xiao agreed to film, although there was an element of whim, but it was also carefully considered.

After all, the money earned by running a business is really not as much as filming, and the two are not the same, one is to give a big performance to the local area, and the other is to appear on the big screen of the theater, which is more promising.

In addition, this invitation was proposed by Liu Haibo, and it was the second time that people invited He Xiao, and if he wanted to refuse again, he would be too unwilling to give face to others, which is called not knowing how to lift.

Zhang Ya never interfered with any decision made by He Xiao, and always maintained a supportive attitude, smiled slightly at this time, and said softly: "Okay, if you think you can do it, just let it go, and if you need anything, just talk to me." ”

Although Zhang Ya has never acted, she is not a fool in the entertainment industry, and she knows many friends with superb acting skills, and may be able to give He Xiao, a novice actor, some help, so she said so.

"Thank you for supporting me in every decision. ”

He Xiao knew all this in his heart, and a touch of emotion came to his heart, he scratched Zhang Ya's little nose, and thanked him with affection.

In fact, He Xiao is not in a hurry to improve his acting skills, he doesn't have many scenes this time, just a supporting role, and it is estimated that all the shots are added together, and it is only about fifteen minutes.

His biggest idea is to take this opportunity to go to the real set to see what kind of scene it is, how the actors and actresses are playing, and how Liu Haibo directs.

After all, the biggest filming set he has ever been in contact with before is only the MV scene of "Old Boy".

And all his knowledge about acting was learned from Huang Jun, the half-baked director of the former Lejia, Huang Jun's professional knowledge is limited, before he met He Xiao, he was just a person who gave Fu Jinglong, not to mention Liao Yuqing and Liu Haibo, who are 108,000 miles behind.

So for the real set, the real director, and the real acting, He Xiao is very interested.

Of course, it would be better if he could perform better in this play, after all, no one wants to be really just a vase who doesn't understand anything.

Acting is a matter of talent.

Experience, life, and experience only account for a small half of the factors, in the black mobile phone world, there are many artists with two-way development in the music and film industry, and when they switch from it, most of them are amazingly talented, and there is even a legend who has just changed from a singer to an actor, and he directly won the Golden Horse actor.

What the can you call it not talented?

Acting is too talented!

He Xiao's talent is good, he once got the actor Liao Yuan's Ren Ke when he participated in the variety show "Ace vs. Ace", but He Xiao knows very well that that small test is actually an element of taking shortcuts.

At that time, the program team asked the guests to imitate the classic movie "Lushan Love", which happened to exist in black mobile phones, so He Xiao relied on his slight talent to draw a scoop according to the gourd, whether it was body language or the expression on his face, he directly copied it, so he won such a high affirmation from the actor Liao Yuan.

If there is no "Lushan Love" in the black phone, if He Xiao is really allowed to play by himself, he will definitely not be so good.

Therefore, He Xiao's talent in acting can only be said to be slight, and it can't be compared to those legends in the black mobile phone at all, and now he wants to improve his acting skills, from a novice to an actor, then he can only rely on redoubling his efforts.

"You go to sleep first, I'm reading the script. ”

He Xiao saw that Zhang Ya was a little sleepy, so he asked her to sleep first, without waiting for himself, he was now feeling new about acting, and the novelty had not passed, and he couldn't sleep.

"Okay, you can rest early, too. Zhang Ya nodded, not bothering He Xiao too much, because she knew that the most important way for couples to get along was to leave each other private space.

……

Window.

The night is getting darker.

Zhang Ya had already rested, He Xiao sat on the sofa, lit a lamp alone, and was reading the script very carefully.

"Or ...... Write a character biography?"

Closing the script that had been read no less than three times again, He Xiao suddenly thought.

The role biography is an important preparation for an actor before acting, and Leung Jiahui in the black mobile phone once wrote a 100,000-word biography for the character, just to figure out the character's life, quickly substitute, and enter the state.

He Xiao has never written a biography, but he can write it, and the most important thing is that the role that Liu Haibo gave him is an online writer in the play, which happens to overlap with him in reality, so for He Xiao himself, the sense of substitution is very strong, and the character biography is naturally easy to write a lot.

After taking out his black phone and looking at the time, He Xiao casually put it aside, then took out a notepad and a black pen, and began to think about where to start.

Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the bright moonlight quietly hid in the darkness for some time, and the whole world was silent, quiet and abnormal, and it seemed that only He Xiao himself was left in the entire community.

He picked up the pen and wrote the life of this character according to the idea in his mind, and he was struggling to write, but he didn't notice that the black phone seemed to emit some faint light, and then He Xiao's pupils began to lose focus unconsciously, and finally passed out on the sofa.

……

……

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

There was a quick, savage knock at the door, and he was displeased as he was asleep.

The whole person turned over and sat up from the bed, scratched his messy hair, which was no different from a bird's nest, he was sleepy-eyed, and pushed open the door with a little shaky walking.

"Why are you pretending to be dead, can't you pay the rent, how many days have you owed?"

Outside the door was a fat woman, with a big round face and a wine trough nose, belonging to the type that would still not look good even if she lost weight, and at this time she was shaking her arms as thick as a small tree trunk and scolding him at the door.

"How did I end up here?"

The sleepy-eyed face revealed a little dazed, because he remembered that he was obviously a big star who had just appeared at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games and negotiated a contract of 20 million, but what happened now?

Oh yes, that's a dream,

It must have been a dream.

"I'm sorry, landlord, I'm sleepy, if you give me a few more days, I'll definitely make up the rent. ”

He seemed to recognize the identity of the fat woman in front of him, and the expression on his face began to change, from the initial blankness, to a flattering face, with his hands folded on his chest, and kept begging.

"Okay, I'll give you the last three days, and if you can't afford it, I'll roll up and get out!"

The fat woman looked at him in disgust, like looking at a pesky fly, and then turned around, twisted her not bewitching figure, and left bewitchingly.

Closing the door, the man was like a ball that had lost his strength, leaning limply behind the door, looking at the ceiling in confusion.

His name is He Xiao, he is 28 years old this year, he is a bedbug who is lazy and dreams that he can one day make money by writing, and lives in one of the tens of thousands of basements in the capital every day.

Whenever people asked him about his work, he said that he was a writer, but in fact he had never published a single book, and he just did nothing in this basement of less than 20 square meters every day.

As for why not get a serious job?

To say that it sounds good is pretentious, I always feel that I am not an ordinary person, and I will become a big tool in the future, and I don't look down on ordinary jobs, but the fact is that he only has a high school education, he doesn't know anything, and he can mess up a little thing, he worked as a waiter at McDonald's, and he was fired in less than three months.

I haven't had a job since, and now I'm barely getting by with some petty theft.

Taking a breath, He Xiao stood up from the ground, glanced at the room full of garbage and nowhere to stay, and walked out on tiptoe.

When I came to the bathroom, the sewage and dirt on the floor were condensed on the floor, and the mirror on the sink had been glued to something I didn't know what it was, and I could only barely see the scene inside.

Reflected above is a man about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a slightly stinky denim top, with a heavy beard and long hair hanging down his shoulders.

Growing a beard is not for the sake of men's sexiness, but because he lives a sloppy life, is too lazy to deal with, and long hair is not the so-called artist's feelings, but simply has no money to go to the barbershop.

He once thought about cutting it himself without scissors, but then he felt that with his own craftsmanship, he was afraid that after cutting it would only make him look more like a fool.

After turning on the faucet and washing his face very perfunctorily, he came to his workbench.

A broken table left by the landlord, and a second-hand worn-out laptop from ten years ago.

The computer can't be used for a few years, the hard disk, CUP, and graphics card are seriously degraded, and it takes a long time to boot up, and there is no software installed in it, only the writing tool Word document that comes with the pirated system.

As usual, he opened the Word interface, and there were two lines in it that read smoothly, which he had written in three days.

"It's the last three days, and today I must write 10,000 words, and then sign a contract with the website, so that the landlord's stinky fat pig will impress me. ”

He Xiao sat in front of the computer and talked to himself energetically, at first glance it sounded very passionate and inspirational, but in fact, he would say this sentence to himself every day.

And the result, of course, day after day, year after year, he still did not achieve the slightest.

Today is exactly the same as yesterday, after he said this, he first stared at the Word interface in a daze, then buttoned his toes, read the newspaper, went to the bathroom to squat at noon, and lay on the sofa in the afternoon to watch TV.

"!"

Until the evening, he looked at the blank computer interface and couldn't help but curse fiercely, this seemed to be the only thing he could do.

"Maybe it's because you're not inspired to stay at home, and you should go out for a walk. ”

He thought to himself.

Put on the only coat that looked fairly clean, then took out half a bottle of pirated blue wind chime perfume that I bought for ten yuan from a drawer, sprayed and sprayed it repeatedly on my body to cover up the smell on my body, and then went out.

Outside the basement is a small street that is not very wide and has no rules, and there are many small vendors who set up their stalls here every day, which belongs to the area that no one cares about.

After He smiled out, he skillfully walked an apple on the upside-down donkey selling fruits, and gnawed it in his mouth without washing it, well, it was so sweet.

Coming out of the small alley, there are countless high-rise buildings in front of you.

The capital at night is undoubtedly charming, full of the temptation of drunkenness, he is like a lonely ghost, aimlessly, wandering the streets, as if out of place with this noisy world.

"I'm grass, isn't this a smile?

People are like this sometimes, when they are most unwilling, they can always meet their former friends, just like a girl who goes out with exquisite makeup, there is no handsome guy who can look at it, and when you don't wear makeup, you can meet the squad leader who has a crush when you go downstairs to take out the garbage.

"Ajiu, long time no see. ”

The name of this dog day standing in front of He Xiao is Xu Shengjiu, who is the younger brother of his ex-girlfriend, who is mixed up on the road.

Yes, He Xiao once had a girlfriend.

When he was in school, he didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, and he talked about his girlfriend for six years, and both of them reached the point of talking about marriage, but in the end, because He Xiao was really unmotivated, the woman's family did not agree, and the matter was blown up.

Later, I heard that she found a new boyfriend with a car and a house after half a year of separation, and the two got married in a flash.

Now that so many years have passed, He Xiao has never inquired about their family, but he didn't expect to meet his "former brother-in-law" today.

"How have you been lately?" Xu Shengjiu gave He Xiao a cigarette and asked with a smile.

He Xiao saw that this cigarette was a little unable to walk, because it was a Chinese cigarette.

It seems that the dog-like brother-in-law in front of him is doing well.

took a sip, He Xiao was not far behind and said: "Well, I wrote, the editor just gave me a recommendation yesterday, and it is estimated that I can earn five or six thousand manuscript fees a day after I get it." ”

"Huh...... Let's go, have two drinks?" Xu Shengjiu stared at him up and down, and without debunking his bragging, he stretched out a hand to invite him to drink.

He Xiao naturally readily agreed, it was best for him to be able to mix a meal.

followed his ex-girlfriend's younger brother into a high-end restaurant, and the two found a window seat to sit down, and then He Xiao began his gushing speech.

It's nothing more than how many words he wrote today, how much manuscript fees he earned, how many tens of thousands of copyrights he sold, in short, I don't know how successful he is.

Xu Shengjiu didn't speak, just listened quietly, and only smiled after a long time, and said, "You don't have to be like me, really." ”

"It's okay if you and my sister aren't together, I can see it a long time ago, you two are not all the way, you and I are the first way. ”

"Listen, it's not a shame to mix up now, you don't have to hide your shortcomings, and when you succeed, you will find that you are extremely ridiculous. ”

Xu Shengjiu revealed his expensive suit and luxury watch, and said: "Look at me, is the life you dream of?" If you want it, I can help you, it's at your fingertips." ”

He Xiao stared directly at the luxury watch on Xu Shengjiu's wrist, he was a little moved by what he said, but immediately shook his head again, "I'm cowardly, I can't do your underworld business." ”

He deeply knows what kind of person this brother-in-law is, he is more uneducated than him, and he wanders on the black edge all the year round, if he is a bedbug to this world, then Xu Shengjiu is a moth.

Although they are all insects, they are far from the same.

Xu Shengjiu saw that He Xiao was worried about this, and immediately burst out laughing, he pursed his lips and did not immediately refute, but after looking left and right, he took out a small white pill from his pocket and put it on the table.

"Eat it and you'll have it all. ”

The small pill in front of me looked a little strange, like a cold medicine, but it was printed with a different pattern than a cold medicine, and it said "NZT".

"What is this?"

He Xiao looked stunned for a moment, then thought of something bad, and quickly shook his head, "I don't suck that thing." ”

"It's not what you think, it's a regular medicine that can develop the potential of the human body and make your brain develop to 100 percent, it's the latest technology in the United States, and it has a certificate. Xu Shengjiu ignored He Xiao's words, put the medicine in front of him along with a business card, and then smiled confidently: "Trust me, you will soon be obsessed with it, besides, you can call me if necessary." ”

After speaking, Xu Shengjiu winked at him, turned around and left the restaurant.

He was left alone to sit by the window, staring at the pill in a daze.

No matter how bad the ending of life is, how bad will it be?

It's already like this dog anyway, heh.

He pinched the small pill and looked at it, and finally swallowed it in one gulp with the attitude of giving it a try.

There is no taste, and there is nothing unusual about the body, but the scene in front of him seems to have changed a little, and his vision is even wider than if it is an illusion or not.

Looking down at the palm of his hand, He Xiao felt that his body was as light as a swallow at this time, and his brain was clear and clear.

"When did you ever care about me?

"Calm down, this is the restaurant. ”

"Do you know that I'm under a lot of pressure right now, but you can't help me, I know how to play games all day long, what a waste!"

"Okay, I'm a waste, right? Then you can find someone who isn't a waste!"

“……”

There was a sound of quarreling in his ears, and He Xiao turned to look, it was a young couple at the next table.

What are they arguing about?

The strange thing is that He Xiao's first reaction was not to watch the excitement, but to think about the problem.

His observation seemed to be sharper than ever, because he clearly noticed the corner of the page exposed in the girl's backpack, although there was only one word "law" on it for him to see, but He Xiao also deduced that it was a law book.

Combined with the dress of a girl and the fact that she is not very old, this should be a trainee lawyer who has just entered the society.

And that boy, dressed in sportswear, wearing Armani in his hands, stepping on a pair of AJ, is full of light luxury fashion brands, but the mobile phone is still an outdated iPhone7, it seems that he is just a vain man who is rich on the surface and the actual conditions are not very good.

All this information acquisition and analysis were completed in an instant, but He Xiao was not surprised, as if these were the skills he should have.

The boy and the girl quarreled more and more, and finally the boy left angrily, leaving the girl alone in the dining room to sulk.

He Xiao picked up the unfinished foreign wine on his table, shook it slightly, and sat down in front of her.

"What are you anxious about? If you encounter a case that you can't know, wouldn't it be good to ask your seniors?"

It was obvious that after He Xiao spoke, the girl's expression froze.

"What are you talking about?"

"Being a lawyer is inherently a stressful profession, and you should understand this when you get a lawyer's license. ”

He Xiao ignored the girl's question, and finished speaking to herself, obviously, as soon as he said this, the girl was completely attracted to him.

"How do you know that? you're following me?" but attraction to attraction, she remained utterly cautious when confronted with a stranger.

He Xiao shrugged, "You don't need to track this, the features on your body are obvious, and they are almost all written on your face." ”

In the following conversation, He Xiao gushed endlessly, and said all his analysis with reason, and the girl also changed from being stunned at the beginning to her eyes began to shine, as if she had seen something incredible.

In the end, the girl completely let down her guard against He Xiao, and began to confide in her, explaining what made her irritable, it turned out that she encountered a tricky case, if she could assist other lawyers to complete the case, she would have the opportunity to apply for regularization next month, and his boyfriend was a fool who only knew how to play games all day long, and never shared the pressure for her, and today he quarreled because of a trivial matter, so it developed into what it is now.

"Tricky case? ”

"You still know this?"

"A little. ”

He Xiao is not a lawyer, he doesn't even have a job, but he knows that he is not reckless at this time, because his mind can clearly recall every day he has experienced in his life for nearly 30 years.

For example, when you went to the bookstore to buy comics at the age of five, you casually flipped through other books on the shelf, and hurriedly swept them, your eyes have seen the content, and your brain has accepted it, but you subconsciously choose to ignore it, so naturally you can't remember the content.

But at this moment, He Xiao can remember word for word all the books he has turned over and all the things he has seen in his life, so a mere lawyer's case is naturally not to be afraid.

The final result is that He Xiao easily solved the troubles that plagued her, and chatted happily, He Xiao is like an omniscient detective, every word she says can drop the girl's appetite, and the two of them naturally transferred from the restaurant to the hotel.

It wasn't until about ten o'clock in the evening that he clutched his waist and returned to his basement.

Pushing open the door, what greeted me was the mess that I would see every day, but today's He Xiao was particularly disgusted, and a sense of disgust arose from the bottom of his heart.

How could this be my room?

How can this be my room?

He felt like he had a fire in his heart, and he wanted to burn it down immediately, but reason didn't let him do it.

Putting on gloves, He Xiao began to clean from the inside out, the small basement of only 20 square meters was finally renewed after an hour, although the furniture was still in tatters, but it was neat and clean.

He sat at the computer desk, looking at the spotless home in front of him, and his mood was finally relaxed.

Most importantly, he feels that he is still in very good shape, without the slightest bit of fatigue.

Therefore, this time he set his eyes on the computer, and with a slight turn of his mind, countless inspirations burst out, which could not be stopped.

He knew what he was going to write.

With his hands on the keyboard, He Xiao entered the focus mode, and for five hours, he didn't slip the number once, which was completely impossible to do in the past, and he didn't dare to think about it.

Five hours later, the 30,000-word manuscript was neatly placed on the computer, and He Xiao still didn't feel the slightest tiredness, he felt like a god, omnipotent.

Save the manuscript, He Xiao uploaded it to the station in batches, if he writes it well, he will receive a signing notice from the website tomorrow, and after the signing is successful, there will be a cash reward of 2,000 yuan.

Glancing back at the clock, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and although he was not sleepy, there was a voice in his heart that kept telling him that it was time to sleep.

Lying on the bed, the mobile phone was placed at the head of the bed, but He Xiaowen didn't touch it, didn't even look at it, and there was only one word in his head, sleep.

On the night when he didn't play with his mobile phone, He Xiao slept very sweetly, and he thought that this state would continue until the next day.

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when he opened his eyes, and he turned over, feeling that his body was still very lazy, and he didn't want to move, so he just lay down for another hour before getting up.

Sitting on the bed, I didn't fold the quilt, I took out my socks from the cabinet, smelled it and felt a little sour, so I threw it on the wall, and then sat in front of the computer without brushing my face and washing my teeth, and wanted to continue to code words, but I looked at Word, which had written half of the story yesterday, but I couldn't remember how to write the next thing that I had conceived yesterday.

an hour.

Two hours.

He Xiao emptied himself and didn't move a word.

He's back to his old ways.

"It's the pill. ”

Fortunately, he was not completely confused, and after sitting in the chair for a long time, he decided to go to Xu Shengjiu, no matter what method he used, whether he begged or worked, he must get another "NZT".

According to the address on the business card, He Xiao came to a very remote apartment around the capital, and then found the house number.

Standing in front of the door, He Xiao was thinking about what to say, and suddenly, the door opened completely from the inside.

Xu Shengjiu was wearing a nightgown, his face was a little bloodstained and decadent, but he looked at him as if he had expected it: "Haha, I knew you would come." ”

"Close the door. ”

He laughed twice like a nervous disorder, then suddenly stopped, turned around and returned to the apartment, He Xiao was frightened by him, and could only close the door at a loss.

"You took the medicine and want more?"

Xu Shengjiu sat down on the sofa, playing with a glass of red wine in his palm, and said as if he was stating the facts.

He Xiao knew that he must have also eaten "NZT", so he was not surprised by his smart performance, so he could only nod and beg: "Ajiu, as long as you give me that medicine, let me do anything." ”

"You can do anything? Hahahaha, do you know how much that medicine costs? Eight thousand yuan a pill! Where are you worth eight thousand yuan?" Xu Shengjiu seemed to have heard some funny joke, stood up and poked him in the face and said, "You really treat yourself as a green onion? I'll tell you the truth, yesterday I gave you the medicine for nothing just to try the effect, to put it bluntly, you are a guinea pig, do you understand? That medicine has no certificate at all, and it was smuggled from the United States!"

Xu Shengjiu was not afraid of He Xiao being angry at all, because he knew that after the other party had tasted this medicine, he had already been deeply fascinated, and if he wanted to get more medicine, he could only obey him.

This is indeed the case, He Xiao didn't speak, just listened to him scold, and when the scolding was enough, Xu Shengjiu lit a cigarette, handed him two hundred yuan, and asked him to go out and get some food to bring back.

He Xiao didn't know if he couldn't order takeout because of something that he couldn't see, or if he simply wanted to slip himself, he only knew that he had no choice and did it obediently.

After packing rice and stir-fry vegetables in the restaurant, He Xiao returned to the apartment half an hour later, and what surprised him was that the door was not closed tightly.

He pushed it away in surprise, and saw that the room was pitch black, he slightly fluted, pressed the wall light switch, and then saw Xu Shengjiu sitting on the sofa with his back to him.

"I bought fish-flavored shredded pork, I don't know if you like it. ”

He Xiao walked over cautiously, and when he walked around the sofa, a scene that shocked him appeared.

Xu Shengjiu had a knife stuck in his chest.

He's dead!

In the half hour he left, someone broke in and killed Xu Shengjiu, and there were obvious traces of someone turning over in the room.

He Xiao was very scared, very scared.

He didn't know if the murderer had left, and after the whole person was scared on the ground, he kept retreating until his back was against the wall, and then he slowly stood up.

"I have nothing to do with this person, it's useless for you to kill me!"

After a short period of fear, He Xiao tried to communicate with the unknown gangster, but after a long time, no one in the house responded, and it seemed that the murderer had left.

After confirming his own safety, He Xiao hurriedly took out his mobile phone in a panic and began to call the police, he did not dare to leave the scene of the murder, for fear that he would be defined as a suspect after leaving.

After the phone call was made, and it was confirmed that there were no gangsters in the house, He Xiao shrank in the corner and slowly regained his senses.

And then......

He had a crucial question in mind.

Why did the gangsters come to kill Xu Shengjiu?

Or what is there about Xu Shengjiu, a scumbag of dog days, that attracts the attention of gangsters?

The answer is only "NZT".

So did he find it?

Looking at the chaotic apartment that was turned over in front of him, He Xiao chose no.

Case...... A bold idea was wildly brewing in his mind, and he almost didn't hesitate, ran to the kitchen and put on rubber gloves to make sure that his fingerprints would not be left, and began to rummage through boxes and cabinets, and pick and choose places that the gangsters had not turned over.

Even under the temptation of "NZT", he even touched Xu Shengjiu's body.

Nothing!

Could that be the last "NZT"?

Or did he not keep it at home?

Impossible, where can such an important thing be put if it is not placed at home.

He Xiao tried to calm himself down, because the police car was coming, and there was not much time left for him.

Suddenly, he saw fish-flavored shredded meat on the ground.

Xu Shengjiu has a kitchen at home, but he asked himself to buy food, which only means that the kitchen cannot be used, or ...... There are important things in the kitchen!

With a light in his eyes, He Xiao rushed to the kitchen almost like crazy and began to rummage, and sure enough, in the mezzanine of a rice cooker, he found a whole bag of "NZT"!

He didn't know exactly how many, but it was definitely enough to eat for a while.

Suddenly, there was a dense sound of footsteps in the corridor, He Xiao knew that it should be the police, he did not hesitate, quickly hid all the pills and rubber gloves in his clothes, and then returned to the previous corner, and continued to shrink there, keeping a scared appearance.

"Don't move, police!"

The door was broken down by the police, He Xiao was pressed against the wall, he explained loudly that he was the person who reported the crime, and after confirming his identity, he was pulled back to the bureau to make a record and investigate.

He Xiao answered all the questions truthfully, such as the relationship between the two, and the reason why they went to his house.

It's seamless, because this was a real thing, and there is no doubt that in the end, He Xiao was ruled out as a suspect.

Back in the small basement, He Xiao's face was full of excitement, because in his pocket, there was a whole bag of "NZT".

He poured out all the NZT, put it in a small bottle, and ate one a day.

He didn't know what the side effects of this incomplete black technology pill were, but he knew he couldn't do without it.

After taking one pill, he is a super version of He Xiao, who can do anything, and the effect can last until the next morning.

And that's enough for him to eat for a while.

He Xiao took a deep breath and swallowed a pill, three seconds later, the drug took effect, He Xiao's expanded vision, keen observation, extraordinary intelligence, unforgettable memory, and self-discipline beyond ordinary people, all returned to the body.

He first opened his laptop and glanced at the manuscript he had uploaded yesterday, and a red station that he had waited for for eight years had not yet appeared in front of him.

The work was signed.

He Xiao's heart didn't have much joy, everything was expected.

The two thousand dollars of the signing reward were returned to the landlord, and then he locked himself in his room for a while, and with absolute self-discipline and concentration, he wrote the whole book.

The advantage of this is that it can ensure that he will still have content to publish without "NZT".

At the same time, it is not surprising that the website is on fire, and He Xiao's daily manuscript fee has risen from dozens of yuan to hundreds or thousands of yuan.

With money in his hand, He Xiao's heart began to be silent, and he began to pay attention to appearance, body, talent, and knowledge.

The first thing he did was to change his look, cut off all his messy beard and hair, throw the smelly clothes on his body directly into the trash, change into a brand new suit, and began to learn to exercise himself.

No matter what time you go to bed at night, you must get up on time at 7 o'clock in the morning, then start a three-kilometer jog, eat a nutritious breakfast after exercise, and then go to school to learn what you are interested in, as long as you can enrich yourself.

However, on the first day of going to school, He Xiao found that everything was too simple, his learning ability had been strengthened to the point of surpassing human beings, he only took three days to master a language, and the piano was also proficient in one day, boxing and fighting.

In just one month, He Xiao's life has undergone earth-shaking changes, from the previous hunched over, obscene temperament, and powerless hands to the current upright, staring, young and powerful, he has almost changed his body.

Nothing in the world could stump him.

He's self-disciplined, he's smart, he's rich, he's omnipotent.

Perhaps, he should do something different with "NZT".

He Xiao looked at the business tycoons who appeared on the news every day, dignitaries, and his eyes showed ambition.

He began to study the stock market, went all out, devoted himself to it, and in just one week, he became a master of it.

Matching his ability, his ambition is inflated, and he smashes all the income he earns from his manuscript fee into the stock market.

Needless to say, with his ingenuity, it is simply a myth in the stock market, invincible, and in less than half a month, the initial capital of 200,000 yuan has become 20 million!

He Xiao's name rose like a meteor and became famous in the entire business district of the capital.

Countless celebrities and rich people flocked to him, he met new friends, had a new circle, went to many parts of the world, bought real estate, and bought luxury cars.

He is completely different from him three months ago now, and maybe he won't even look at someone on the road when he meets someone exactly like him once was.

Young and golden, self-disciplined in life, eight-pack abs, extremely smart, and amazing IQ...... In the face of such a perfect man, no woman will not be tempted, He Xiao almost changes his girlfriend every three days, which was unimaginable before.

He got his wish and became a successful person.

Until this day, a haggard-looking woman knocked on the door of his office.

She obviously has lush black hair, but her face is covered with deep wrinkles, as if a young man has aged early, which is very weird.

She sat down in front of him with a puzzled gaze, and then said very unexpectedly and sadly: "You don't know me anymore." ”

"You...... Is it Xu Ting?"

It wasn't until he heard her voice that He Xiao's long-sealed memory was awakened, and he stared at the woman in front of him in disbelief.

Because this is Xu Shengjiu's sister, he has been talking to his ex-girlfriend for six years!

"Seeing how successful you are now, NZT should eat a lot, right?"

Without warning, such a sentence popped out of Xu Ting's mouth.

He Xiao frowned, he walked quickly to the door of the office and closed the door, and turned his head to stare at Xu Ting with a threatening gaze.

"You've taken this medicine too?"

Xu Ting didn't care about his gaze at all, sat there and stretched out her wrinkled hand, took out a cigarette and lit it, clicked her mouth and said, "You rely on NZT a lot now?"

“…… Take it every day, sometimes two or three capsules a day. ”

He Xiao was silent for a while, but still answered her question, because obviously, Xu Ting had also taken this medicine and seemed to know better.

"Two or three pills ......" After Xu Ting heard this, she looked at He Xiao with excitement all of a sudden, and sympathized after a while, "You stop this medicine as soon as possible." ”

After speaking, she sighed, turned around and was about to leave, He Xiao couldn't help but panic when she saw her like that, grabbed her arm and asked, "Xu Ting, you make it clear, are you becoming like this because of this medicine?"

Xu Ting was silent, as if struggling, it was a past that she didn't want to recall, but finally relented: "NZT is a drug that is still in the experimental period, with many side effects, everything you can feel now is an illusion that it has been exchanged for overdrawing your body." ”

"After taking 100 pills, the body will not be able to withstand this high-intensity overdraft, and many different symptoms such as aging, decreased resistance, and anemia will begin to appear, but the final result is the same. ”

Every time Xu Ting's words came out, He Xiao's heart became a little colder, especially when he heard that "ordinary people will have symptoms after taking a hundred pills", his entire pupils shrank, because he had just taken the one hundred and one pills today.

"What result?"

He took a few deep breaths and asked again, but Xu Ting didn't speak this time, but fell into silence, how could He Xiao not understand when he saw this, and the whole person was paralyzed on the seat at once.

If you continue to take NZT, there is only one end, death!

But if you don't continue to take it......

He Xiao deeply understands that it is impossible for him not to continue to take it, he has developed a strong dependence on this thing, and his brain has developed to 100%, which is an unprecedented new world, and even in the last few days, if he eats late one day, his brain will continue to send him hints.

I can't quit this thing, and I know that if I continue to eat it, I will die, and no one can resist it.

In other words, it is an endless cycle that will continue forever until the day of one's own death......
