Chapter 17: A Strange Scene

Something happened over the weekend, but it didn't change much in the lives of the two of them.

Wei Jia'an started work as usual on Monday and left work as usual in the afternoon, a little different in that when he came home every day, Vera no longer sat on the edge of the bed with a book in her hand, and that "History of the World" was now sitting on the table next to the computer desk, but in front of the computer desk.

"Another day of play?"

"Nothing."

"How's it going?"

"See for yourself."

"You seem to like sending troops, a lot of tanks, pay attention to the maintenance costs, and be careful of the fiscal deficit to brush the rebels."

Although Vera is playing the game, Wei Jia'an has always been very concerned about the progress of the game.

Vera's movements in playing games are very slow, and Wei Jia'an knows it. He plays the game by skipping all the parts that can be skipped, and everything goes towards the final victory. Vera is not like that, she will read any dialogue carefully, any introduction will be carefully read, and every time a new building is built, she has to scroll the mouse wheel to zoom in and have a good look.

Different people play the game, some people play slowly, look at the scenery all the way, talk to everyone, complete all the side quests, or even collect them all, some people go straight to clear the customs, and different people must have different customs clearance times. Civilization 6 is a game of this type, and most of the monster fighting upgrades to defeat the final big boss game clearance, there is a little difference, different civilizations and leaders, different maps, different victory goals, different difficulties, and the time to clear the customs is very different.

Vera plays with low difficulty, the map is not too big, civilization and leaders are average, people who can play may clear the customs in three or two clicks, even if it is a novice, it is almost the same, Wei Jia'an came home from work on Tuesday and saw that she was still playing her original archive: "Saturday, Sunday, Monday, today and another day, you haven't cleared the customs yet." ”

"Play slowly."

Wei Jia'an just mentioned it, and didn't express any more opinions on it, everyone has their own way to play...... In fact, it was mainly after the habitual pointing fingers before, and I was scolded by Vera once, but it wasn't actually a scolding, but I just said "Why don't you come to play?" "Pretty much it's settled.

The next day was Wednesday, and Wei Jia'an thought that it would be another boring day to pass the time by reading the webpage.

"Xiao Wei, come on. There are also Tang Juan, Liang Gong, Wu Gong, Xiao Li, where is Xiao Shen? Let's all come here, and now we have a meeting. "The general manager of the company suddenly appeared in the big office.

At nine o'clock, sitting in the company's conference room, Wei Jia'an learned that the company had just received a large order. Sometimes the larger the order, the larger the order, the larger the order is often to purchase the same product, there is no need to produce a drawing, or only need to produce a drawing, he never worries. Sure enough, in the end, there was no work for him, and the big orders wanted old products, and the drawings were already available. But because the construction period is a bit rushed, all the people in the office also have to go to the workshop to help.

If it's not your own thing, you won't do it, and I thought so when I was in college, and Wei Jia'an no longer has such unrealistic ideas after graduating and working. On the other hand, the company's work management is very relaxed, a little late and early to leave, when there is nothing to do, he casually surfs the Internet, for this kind of help, he has no opinion at all.

"Liang Gong, you help tear the bag, Wu Gong, you help with the experiment, Xiao Wei, you help with glue."

There is a step in the production of the product, that is, to pour vinyl or epoxy resin into the metal cylinder, mainly to facilitate the heat dissipation of the product, which is a long-standing problem. Wei Jia'an's task is to help pour glue, which sounds easy, but it is also not easy, a little more or less is not enough, and it is easy to stain the clothes, what he has to do is to help.

"Xiao Wei, help me and lift that bucket to the cart."

"Pretty heavy? Two people. The iron bucket that almost needs to be surrounded by a person is placed next to the door of the workshop, Wei Jia'an walked over and tried to lift it, it felt a little heavy, but there was no problem, and he didn't think much about it, he lifted it up with one hand and put it on the cart with great effort, and at this time he saw the surprised eyes of his colleagues who asked him to help.

"Xiao Wei, I can't see it, you have so much strength? A full bucket, I see you can easily lift it. ”

"It's not as easy as you say." Wei Jia'an laughed for a moment, and then remembered that why he would help Vera stemmed from a somewhat misunderstood transaction, anyway, he obtained a thing, which can also be said to be a power, and it is said that that power will gradually transform his body, and finally he can obtain the physical fitness of a legendary knight.

It's true that I can feel my body changing every day these days, but it's not noticeable and I don't care. It wasn't until today that I found out, or rather, I felt that I had a lot more strength than before, and I lifted a heavy object that I could never lift before.

I can't wait to share it with others, but I don't dare to mention it to people in the company, and I guess no one believes it, but I sent a WeChat message to Vera, and there was no response for a long time. waited until noon to get off work and rushed home, and when he saw Vera, Wei Jia'an couldn't suppress the excitement on his face: "Vera, the thing you gave me is really amazing." ”

Vera didn't understand what was going on at all, and when Wei Jia'an explained, she said, "Of course it's amazing, there aren't many of that thing even in the entire empire." ”

"I did a simple calculation, it was full of vinyl, and the bucket might have weighed more than 150 pounds, and I actually lifted it with one hand." Wei Jia'an took out his mobile phone and found the computer software, and the numbers were still there.

"It's just more than a hundred and fifty pounds." Vera said.

"It may be easy for you, but it's not the same for me. You see, I'm quite tall, I'm not thin, I never like sports, I don't play basketball, I don't play football, I haven't been to exercise, I just play on the computer after work, I don't have much energy. Wei Jia'an asked expectantly, "If I completely absorb that thing, I will have a lot of strength." ”

"The first thing you have to do is fully absorb that power, and then you learn to use that power." Vera said casually.

"So what should I do now?"

"Wait, wait. Wait until that thing has transformed your body into something that can fully carry its power. Vera said.

"Just wait?" Wei Jia'an asked again uneasily.

"Hmm."

"I see." Wei Jia'an hesitated for a moment before saying, "I really feel that I have taken a big advantage, what do you want, as long as I can afford it, I can help." "Although Vera had told me how powerful that thing was, she didn't feel anything without much personal experience, but today she had a deep experience.

Vera looked back at Wei Jia'an, only to see the latter's look of anticipation, she said, "Eat steak at night?" ”

"I know a shop that, even though it's a food stall, tastes good." Wei Jia'an glanced out the window, it was still raining, "I'll help you buy it back in the rain." ”

"What else?" Wei Jia'an asked again.

Vera said, "Our deal, as long as you help heal your injuries. ”

"Say it." Wei Jia'an insisted.

"I'll think about it."

On Wednesday, Wei Jia'an was excited for a day until he returned to normal a day later. Thursday was busy all of a sudden, but what he had to do was not to help with glue pouring, but to help with the experiment, and the colleague who had helped with the experiment was busy with other things.

The experiment is the last part of the product to leave the factory, and it looks like it is going to be loaded at noon, and the lunch break must be late. Wei Jia'an didn't send WeChat, although he went back on Wednesday to teach Vera how to use WeChat, this time he chose to call back and tell Vera that he would not go back at noon.

Everyone in the workshop has to work overtime after work in the afternoon, but Wei Jia'an, as an office worker, is willing to work overtime with overtime pay, and if he doesn't want to work overtime, he certainly chooses not to work overtime.

This afternoon, Wei Jia'an came home and saw a strange scene-

Since it has been raining these days, it is dark outside, and the lighting in the room is not good, so you can turn on the lights at three or four o'clock every day. Usually when I came back by myself, the room was always lit up, but today there was none. Vera was sitting at the computer desk, leaning back in her chair instead of leaning towards the computer, and her hands were not holding the mouse. If you look at the computer screen, it's not a game screen, it's not a browser, it's a desktop, and the taskbar is empty.
