He Jie's eyes widened, and he threw the puppet far away with a flick of his hand, "What kind of monster are you?" How can you speak? ”

The puppet hit the wall, its eyes and hair crumpled, and the brown freckles on its face moved, "Why are you so rude, I'm here to help you, why are you throwing me?" ”

"What do you mean?" He Jie came to his senses, the puppet in front of him was only half a person tall, and he squeaked when he walked, obviously without any offensive power, except for the weirdness of speaking, everything else was quite normal.

"Do you want to do nothing all day and have someone raise you? Do you want to have nothing to do except sleep and eat every day? ”

"No ・・・・・・ wrong." He Jie nodded, wondering in his heart that this puppet seemed to be able to read all of his thoughts.

"That's right, I can pretend to be you, help you with work, deal with blind dates, and do other things, you just need to stay at home and not let people see you."

"How is this possible, unless you have a transformation technique." He Jie shrugged his shoulders and expressed disbelief.

"Of course it is possible, as long as you wear this wig on your head." The puppet pointed to the green hair in his hand.

"It's as simple as that?" He Jie glanced at it suspiciously, and without thinking too much, he put the wig on his head.

"Poof-" With a sound, something strange happened, the puppet in the corner of the wall suddenly became tall, making a clattering sound, and when the white fog around it dissipated, He Jie was surprised to find that there was an extra "self" in this room.

He Jie rushed over, pulled the puppet to the mirror, looked left and right, and sure enough, the two looked exactly the same, and they were exactly the same.

"Ahh That's great! He Jie was overjoyed, "That brother, I'll trouble you in the future." ”

"You're welcome." The puppet nodded modestly at him.

"By the way, what was your original name?"

"I was originally called a puppet, but now I am called He Jie."

"Puppets." He Jie muttered and repeated, ignoring the cunning that flashed in the other party's eyes.

The next day, He Jie was woken up by the sound of getting up, and when he opened his eyes, he found that there was a person who was exactly the same as himself standing next to the bed, and he couldn't help but be startled, but fortunately, he suddenly recalled what happened last night, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

The puppet stretched out his arms and said, "Didn't your parents introduce you to a job a few days ago?" I'm going for an interview today. ”

"Really?" He Jie touched his head, "I can't seem to remember." You only came to my house last night, how do you even know about this? ”

"Of course I know everything about you, so that I can better play the role of He Jie, isn't it?"

"That's right," He Jie yawned heavily, "then you should prepare well, don't lose face for me." ”

"Don't worry, I won't lose face for 'us'." The puppet smiled, and one side of its head hid the light under its eyes.

After the puppet left, He Jie slept for another three or four hours before getting up, and when he opened the curtains, a large piece of sunlight poured in, stretching his not too tall figure into a slender and long one.

"I'm a little hungry, I'm going to have breakfast," he touched his stomach and walked slowly to the door, but when he pulled the doorknob, he found that the door was locked, "Huh? What's going on? ”

He Jie thought about it, and knew that it was a puppet puppet, he couldn't help but be a little angry, and his stomach was full of anger, so he simply copied a small stool and smashed it on the door lock.

"Shhh

"Ouch!" He Jie sat down on the ground, rubbed his buttocks and scolded, "This guy, what's the matter?" ”

In desperation, He Jie could only temporarily give up the idea of going out. Fortunately, this room has its own bathroom, he hurriedly washed his face, sat down at the computer desk, picked up the half pack of compressed biscuits left from last night and ate it, thinking while eating, when the puppet comes back in the evening, he must reprimand him. How can there be a reason to be a stand-in and lock the original owner in the room?

The afternoon was spent playing computer games like this, He Jie cleared another level, stretched his waist, heard footsteps at the gate, and looked at the time displayed in the lower right corner, it was already more than six o'clock.

He Jie walked to the door of the room and was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, but he heard the voices of three people in the living room, it was his parents and a puppet.

"Mom, do you need help?"

"Oh, no, no, the kitchen is not a place for you men to come, go back to your room and rest, you're tired after a day's work." He Jie couldn't see He Mu's expression, but from her voice, she could tell that she was happy.

"Haha, you kid, why did you change your job and even your personality changed? You wouldn't have thought of helping your mom before. This is the voice of Father Ho.

"I used to be ignorant, but since I was fired by the unit last time, I have thought a lot and feel that I can't live in my previous state, after all, in the future, this family will still rely on me to support." The puppet puppet speaks seriously, and He Jie can imagine that he is polite when he speaks, but this scene is too much, and he will never be like this if he is himself.

"Since it's none of my business, I'll go back to my room first, and if there's anything you need to order, just call me."

He Jie heard the puppet's footsteps approaching, hurriedly sat back on the chair in front of the computer desk, turned the corner in the direction of the door, and put on an interrogation posture.

The puppet entered the room and saw He Jie's unpleasant expression at a glance, "What's wrong?" Any questions? ”

"Why did you lock the door? I've been hungry all day! He Jie asked.

"Heh, it's for your own good." The puppet seemed to have anticipated his problem.

"What do you mean?"

"If two of us are seen together," the puppet pointed at He Jie and then at himself, "then something terrible will happen to us." ”

"What's the matter?"

"The two of us will both become puppets."

"Huh?" He Jie frowned, becoming a puppet or something, it was indeed a terrible thing for himself, but what was there for a puppet? He's a puppet!

"Okay, okay, I won't pursue it," He Jie waved his hand impatiently and said, "Since you helped me find a job, then you will work hard for me in the future." I'm going to eat now, and I'm dying of hunger. I'll bring you some food to the room later, by the way, do you have anything to eat? ”

"I don't have to eat."

"Oh?" He Jie patted his head, "Yes, I almost forgot, although you have become my appearance now, you are still a puppet in essence!" Of course, you don't have to eat like humans. ”

"Yes, I'm still a puppet, so I don't need to eat," the puppet smiled slightly, and when He Jie walked out of the room, he continued in an inaudible voice, "But not necessarily in the future." ”

He Jie had dinner, and when he returned to the room, he found that it was empty, and when he lifted the quilt, he saw that the puppet was curled up quietly, "Why did you change back?" ”

"I don't have enough strength, and I can only maintain my human form for twelve hours at the moment." Puppet explained.

"That's right," He Jie nodded, "but it's okay, anyway, you just need to help me go to work during the day, and it's okay at night, but if you work overtime, it's troublesome, and I'll have to go in person, alas." ”

"But if you're not familiar with your work, you'll be suspicious," said the puppeteer, moving his red nose, "Don't worry, I have a way to grow my strength slowly, and when the time comes, I can maintain my human form twenty-four hours a day." ”

"What's the solution?" He Jie was curious.

The puppet's laughter was soft, "It's a secret, it's not convenient to tell you now." ”

"Then forget it, love to say it or not," He Jie yawned, not in the mood to continue chatting with it, and slurred into the bed and covered his head with the quilt, "I'll go to bed first, you should also rest quickly, don't be late tomorrow." ”

"Hmm." The puppet responded.

He Jie covered his eyes with his palms, opened his mouth wide and fell asleep, he was very sleepy today, he didn't even bother to turn off the lights, and the cold light stretched his shadow to the quilt.

He Jie dimly felt as if he had been stung in his shoulder, and there was a feeling of soreness and numbness, but it only lasted for a second or two, and this slight pain disappeared. He didn't care, he just thought that there was a mosquito in the room and he was accidentally bitten.

He Jie slept in a daze, and only heard a slight chewing sound in his ears, as if someone had bitten something crisp sweetly, so that he swallowed saliva unconsciously in his dreams.

When He Jie woke up again, it was already noon, the puppet and his parents had already gone to work, and he was the only one left at home.

This time the door of the room was not locked, but the door was locked, He Jie shrugged and didn't care, anyway, he didn't go out, just have a computer and food, and the rest didn't matter.

He Jie took a bowl of instant noodles and sat down at the computer desk, and after half of the meal, he thought the sunlight was too dazzling, so he reluctantly moved to the window to draw the curtains.

"Huh?"

He Jie accidentally saw his own shadow projected on the floor, and felt that something was strange. He adjusted the angle of the station, only to find that his shadow seemed to be a little asymmetrical, well, the left shoulder was a little shorter than the right, and he couldn't see it if he didn't look closely.

"It's so interesting, why didn't you find it before?" He Jie scratched his messy hair, a little puzzled, because his figure was obviously normal.

"Dudutu", a dialog box popped up on the computer screen, and He Jie saw that it was sent by his game teammates, so he couldn't think about it, and hurriedly sat down at the table to log in to his account, rushed to the strategic location agreed by everyone yesterday, and quickly joined the hot battle.

So, soon, he left the shadow incident behind him.
