Chapter 408 [Parallel World Holiday, Poor Doppelganger]
Guo Xu has a new understanding of the trigger conditions of the time loop, before he thought it was caused by extreme depression, but now he guessed that it was because of the goal or ** that he wanted to achieve very much in his heart.
When he was first reborn, he was about to play in the NCAA Final Four at Polis, and he hoped to participate in the draft and become an NBA player; After that, he joined the Lakers in order to make a name for himself against Iverson in the Finals, and both times it was related to his ideas.
Now he aspires to be the dunk king, whether in his past life or in this life, he has fantasized about participating in the slam dunk contest, winning the championship with his incredible dunk to the applause of the fans.
Who doesn't love dunks for those who love basketball? Think of the names of those entertainment works. "Slam Dunk", "Air Slam Dunk", "Slam Dunk", "Men Should Enter the Bottle", "Dunk Showdown" and so on......
There is a Chinese movie called "The Siege of October", which is about a group of people protecting Sun Yat-sen, in which the great monk played by Battle fights and smashes the jar on the killer's head like a dunk. Originally, the crew wanted to find Yao Ming and Battle to detain people together, but no, and then they found Brother Chun, who looked similarly.
On the basketball court, the most engaging way to score is always a dunk, and that's not going to change.
Guo Xu guessed that if he couldn't reach the strength of the dunk king, he would have to be trapped on the same day and repeat the parallel world on December 12. Tomorrow shouldn't be the 13th, otherwise both worlds will be messed up.
There are two possibilities at that time, one is that the Suns teammates can't find Guo Xu, and the regular season MVP mysteriously disappeared from the hotel in Orlando, creating the biggest news in NBA history.
The second is to pass through a cook, swap bodies with him, and become unable to play basketball, which should not happen.
If you come, you will be safe, Guo Xu should go to the parallel world for a long vacation.
And just like the previous two times, he doesn't have to live a self-disciplined life in the time loop, he is emotionally single-minded, and he can enjoy the waves. Whatever he did, Meghan wouldn't know.
He believes that he will definitely return to his own world, the reason is very simple, he is a cook in this world, and it is useless for a chef to become a dunk king.
Only when he goes back, the condition of "becoming the star weekend dunk king" can be met, otherwise it is a paradox.
After figuring this out, Guo Xu's mood was much better, he planned to play for a day first to see if tomorrow was the 12th, if it was the 13th, he would find a place to hit his head and die...... The previous efforts and accumulations have become a void.
What should I do today? Start by strolling around Orlando to get out for some food and sights.
He certainly wouldn't be in this room, no game console, no TV, nothing, not an hour.
Guo Xu found a pair of jeans and a casual jacket to wear, no sweater underneath, the temperature in Orlando is still very high in December, more than 20 degrees during the day, and it will not drop below 10 degrees at night.
He rummaged through the wallet in his pocket and found that it was only $37, but fortunately there was a bank card, and he didn't know how much money was in it. He didn't take in any new memories, so it would be fun if he couldn't guess the password.
Guo Xu also deliberately tried the door key when he left the apartment, maybe he still needs to come back, it's always good to be a little prepared.
It's a dilapidated apartment that looks like a slum and smells a little moldy in the hallway. When he got out of the building, he found that the side walls had fallen off a lot, and he was surrounded by higher buildings, so he could hardly see sunlight, and it was difficult for cars to drive in.
Obviously, Guo Xu is a "doppelganger" in the parallel world of not playing basketball, and he lives a poor life, unless he becomes a top chef, he can't be compared with NBA players. Even if it is a top chef, the annual salary is not expected to be higher than that of ordinary players.
Guo Xu walked on a nearby street, because he went out early, there were not many people on the street, he didn't raise his head when he saw him, and he wouldn't be excited to greet him, he was not a star here.
He was a little excited, he hadn't experienced this "little transparent" taste for a long time.
As long as he goes out, someone will definitely ask him for an autograph or a group photo, and after becoming a star, his private space has become very little, except for staying at home, there is almost nothing to speak of. He must pay attention to his words and deeds outside, otherwise the media will definitely catch his loopholes and make up some news to attract the attention of fans.
At this moment, he felt that the pressure he had accumulated was suddenly released, he breathed the air of freedom, he could do whatever he wanted in this city, no one cared about him at all.
Maybe that's why I went to a parallel world?
In his own world, even if he lives the same day, he can't do whatever he wants, and it will waste a lot of time just to go out and be chased by fans to ask for autographs. He wants to participate in dangerous sports, and extreme sports have to wear makeup or a wig first, otherwise many project staff will not let him participate.
Now, he has a thrill of being hidden in the city.
He walked along the long street for a while and saw a bank with an ATM outside. He inserted the card and entered the birthday number, and found that the password had not changed, and the doppelganger was just as lazy as he was in this regard.
But this man is poor and pitiful, Kari only has $1,600, this goods has already worked and has no savings, is it the Moonlight Clan? It's too light, isn't it?
Guo Xu, who is accustomed to a luxurious life, feels a little sad for himself in this world.
At the same age, if he didn't go to work, he would have to go bankrupt if he paid rent and food. I don't know if he graduated from college, if he becomes a chef, it feels like college will be in vain, and after graduating from high school, he will just go home to help? Having a dad teach you how to cook is definitely faster than learning at Lanxiang Technical School, and you can't think of going to other cities to learn Western food.
After thinking about the itinerary, Guo Xu withdrew $500 in cash as today's expenses, planning to go to the Magic home court first.
He doesn't know if there will be a game today, and if there is, will it still be the Suns VS Magic? I don't know what lineup the Suns are now, everyone shouldn't know him anymore, so it might be interesting to take a look.
He hopped into a taxi and said he was going to the Magic's Amway Arena.
The driver, a middle-aged black uncle with a lot of curiosity, asked, "What are you doing at the stadium so early?" Didn't the game start in the evening? ”
"I just want to go and see if there will be a training session at 9 o'clock, right? Which two teams are playing today? ”
"The Timberwolves vs. the Magic, the focus of this round. You're a new fan, right? The Magic won't let fans into the stadium to watch practice, I know a guy who tried to ask O'Neal and Maddie for autographs in the preseason and was kicked out by security. The driver laughed.
"O'Neill and Maddie? Are they on a team? Guo Xu was shocked and blurted out.
"So you don't even know the stars...... So what do you go to see? The driver was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "They are the hottest star combination in the NBA right now." ”
Guo Xu swallowed and foamed, took a deep breath and said, "I'm not going to the stadium, let's go to Universal City Pedestrian Street." ”
Known as the "Food Street", there are many restaurants and they are very busy, and people often queue up.
"No problem."
Usually, in order to ensure the competitive state, Guo Xu should pay attention to the food and drink, and some spicy and fried foods cannot be eaten casually.
In the morning, he chose Chinese fried dough sticks and spicy soup. After eating, he went to a nearby Internet café, logged on to a well-known big website and began to browse the news, the NBA in this world seemed to have changed a lot, and he wanted to see what had changed.
