Chapter 4 System Tasks?
This night, Zhuo Xiaodong tossed and turned like a chicken blood, tossing and turning, and only squinted for a while in the early hours of the morning.
"Xiaodong is up! I'm going to be late for school! Mother gently called out to Zhuo Xiaodong, who was still asleep.
Hearing his mother's call, Zhuo Xiaodong reflexively bounced up from the sofa, and his two eyelids were swollen like a fish bubble.
"Mom, you called me?" Zhuo Xiaodong stared at his mother and asked.
"What time is it, aren't you going to school yet?" Li Mei said a little angrily. "From now on, I will sleep in the school, and there will be nurses in the hospital during the day. I'm much better and should be discharged from the hospital in a short time. ”
"Mom, you must take care of your body, rest assured, when I graduate and find a good job, we will be able to live a good life." When the time comes, I will buy a house in the county town and take my grandmother over to live with me. Zhuo Xiaodong had a smile on his face, and his mind was full of systems, systems.
Li Mei glanced at Zhuo Xiaodong and said angrily: "So you have to study harder, your grandmother is old, and your mother's health is not as good as day by day." As long as you can live a good life, your grandmother and I will be happy. ”
Hearing this, Zhuo Xiaodong's heart was sour, his mother pulled herself up with a handful of and urine, and Zhuo Xiaodong knew how much sadness and pain there was.
"Mom, I'm going to school." After saying that, Zhuo Xiaodong strode out of the ward, and after walking out of the ward, he wiped the sparkle from the corner of his eyes with his sleeve.
The hospital provides free nursing services to poor households, and Zhuo Xiaodong only needs to pay for his mother's daily meals, so he doesn't have to worry about his mother's daily life during the day.
He hurried towards the hospital toll office with the money in his hand, which suddenly made him feel rich.
With apprehension, he handed over a stack of red banknotes to the staff at the toll desk, and when the banknotes passed smoothly to the guò money detector for review, Zhuo Xiaodong breathed a long sigh of relief.
"It's really like a dream, a beautiful dream, ** without a trace!" After handing over the 10,000 yuan, he instantly felt a lot more comfortable, smirking as he walked.
Seeing that the time was already half past seven, and there was not much time left before going to work, he immediately quickened his pace.
When he passed by the green belt where he met the old man last night, he couldn't help but take a few more looks, and the green belt was clear during the day, and remembering Weiwei's expression last night made him feel funny.
Zhuo Xiaodong didn't think much about it, came to the steamed bun shop, bought two steamed buns, and trotted towards the company quickly.
Early in the morning, the pedestrians on the road were endless, and everyone was in a hurry, but Zhuo Xiaodong's mind was full of the courage to exchange the huàn system.
He didn't know when or where the system would issue tasks to him, and he was nervous but full of anticipation.
Just as he walked to the Yangtze Lake, a noise interrupted his thoughts.
"Help, someone fell overboard..."
"Quick, call the police..."
At this moment, there was a commotion on the shore of Yangtze Lake, and three or five old people who were exercising in the morning were shouting for help on the side of the road.
Zhuo Xiaodong's heart tightened, and he walked quickly to the lake, only to see an old man with gray hair struggling in the cold lake water, seeing that the old man was getting farther and farther away from the shore, Zhuo Xiaodong was anxious.
But when he saw the cold surface of the lake that was still bubbling with a trace of mist, he hesitated in his heart.
"The first system mission is activated, rescue the old man who has fallen into the water, complete the task to reward 50x2 courage points, and deduct 10 health points and 10 wealth points for abandoning the task."
The sound of the system completely broke Zhuo Xiaodong's psychological defense, and he couldn't help him to hesitate at all, and directly drove him to the shelf.
Nima, give me a brave rescue from the drowning in the winter, it's still a low-level mission...
Zhuo Xiaodong's mind was full of black lines, but his eyes never left the old man who fell into the water.
At this moment, more and more pedestrians gathered from the surrounding area, but still no one dared to try to save people in the water in such a cold day, because this is a very dangerous thing in itself.
Zhuo Xiaodong didn't care about his own image, quickly squeezed into the crowd, mustered up the courage to take off a down jacket on his body and jumped into the icy lake.
At this moment, he did not notice a pair of eyes full of awe thrown at him from the shore.
The moment he entered the water, the biting cold continued to invade Zhuo Xiaodong's body, freezing his lips purple.
However, at this moment, Zhuo Xiaodong had no way out, and he swam towards the old man who was constantly struggling.
Fortunately, as a country boy, his only pleasure every summer since he was a child was to swim in the water, so his water nature is excellent.
After three or two strokes, Zhuo Xiaodong had already swam to the old man's side.
At this moment, he had long forgotten the biting ice, grabbed the old man's body with his arm, and swam to the shore desperately.
At this moment, the old man has already drunk a lot of lake water, and coupled with the near-zero degree lake water, the old man is exhausted.
And Zhuo Xiaodong became a life-saving straw for the old man, and his strong will to survive made the old man hug Zhuo Xiaodong tightly and began to struggle again, which also increased the difficulty of Zhuo Xiaodong's swimming.
"Uncle, don't move, I will definitely save you ashore." Zhuo Xiaodong said in a voice that was almost trembling.
After hearing Zhuo Xiaodong's reassurance, the old man was really much quieter.
Zhuo Xiaodong gritted his teeth and swam to the shore fiercely.
It is not a distance of more than ten meters to the shore, but for Zhuo Xiaodong at this moment, it is as far away as the edge of the sky.
"For my mother, for my grandmother, for my mother, for my grandmother..." Zhuo Xiaodong shouted silently in his heart, and swam frantically towards the shore with one hand in a dog-like manner.
5 meters, 4 meters, 3 meters...
Finally, a strong arm tightly grabbed Zhuo Xiaodong's clothes, and Zhuo Xiaodong was exhausted.
A succession of well-wishers pulled Zhuo Xiaodong and the old man ashore, and everyone was moved by Zhuo Xiaodong's enthusiastic actions.
After going ashore, Zhuo Xiaodong felt a hundred times colder than in the water, and the biting cold wind in the early morning blew in the silk, and he couldn't help but shiver vigorously.
Suddenly, the old man lying on the ground grabbed Zhuo Xiaodong's hand and whispered: "The young man went to the Yueyang Group to find me, my name is Su Qingsheng." ”
Zhuo Xiaodong felt inexplicable, but still nodded.
"Hurry, hurry, the ambulance is coming..."
Soon, several men in white coats arrived at the scene carrying stretchers and carried the old man, who was already frozen to a colorless face, onto the stretcher.
And Zhuo Xiaodong put on a down jacket and silently squeezed out the crowd under everyone's reverent gaze.
Seeing that the time was already past eight o'clock and was about to be late, Zhuo Xiaodong sped up his pace and rushed towards the company.
At the same time, a Linhai TV interview car also hurried to the scene, and a woman in a white down jacket took the microphone to ask passers-by who were still staying on the shore about what had happened.
"That brave young man has just left."
"That young man seems to be in his early 20s, he should still be a student, and he really has courage in the winter."
"The young man had just gone in that direction, wearing a gray down jacket, and now he might be able to catch up."
Passers-by were full of praise for Zhuo Xiaodong's righteous and courageous actions, and the female reporter also showed surprise on her face.
Obviously, she couldn't imagine that it was a student who saved people, and she was very excited, thinking that she must find Zhuo Xiaodong to expose the news and spread some positive energy to this obscure society.
At this moment, Zhuo Xiaodong had already run to the company out of breath, and he was wet in the winter, which couldn't help but attract the disdainful eyes of his colleagues.
Zhuo Xiaodong's Weiba Solar Energy Company is a relatively large-scale solar energy company in Linhai City, and there is also a super solar energy company with the same name as their company. It has always been thought that in order to compete for the leading position in the city's industry, the competition between the two companies is particularly fierce.
"I didn't see rain today, Xiaodong came to the company by swimming today!"
"Zhuo Xiaodong, you have not yet passed the internship period for me to be late, and if you are late, you will have to deduct your salary, and if you are late three times, you won't have to go to work." Li Jun, who was known as a ghost, looked at Zhuo Xiaodong, who was unbearable at the moment, with an angry face, and reprimanded angrily.
Since he was already late, Zhuo Xiaodong didn't bother to explain, and immediately said: "Boss Li, there won't be a next time, Ah Yan..."
There was a burst of laughter from the office.
"What are you doing standing stupidly, go and dry your body, don't affect your colleagues to work." Boss Li shouted.
Zhuo Xiaodong quickly ran into the toilet, took off the wet clothes and pants on his body, wrung them out, and then dried them with a hair dryer, and put them back on his body to be much more comfortable.
Zhuo Xiaodong, who was exhausted, leaned against the wall of the toilet and breathed a long sigh of relief, this time he was really tired.
"Complete the quest and get 100 courage points, and the extra reward is to restore your health."
Before the system's words fell, Zhuo Xiaodong immediately felt a warm current wandering in the cold body, and the nostrils that were still plugged immediately opened, and the whole person was refreshed.
"Oh, that's good!"
Back in the office, the chair was still hot, and the roar of the ghost was full of anger again. "All the people in the sales department are waiting for me in the conference room."
