53 Old friends
When he returned home, Lin Shuang still sent Zhao Nuo to the door, and then reluctantly left.
When he entered the house, he happened to look at his cousin with a happy little look, and Zhao Nuo asked angrily, "What are you doing?" β
"How far have you and that girl become? Sister, I'm curious. Jian Hitomi narrowed her eyes and smiled.
"Fuck off." Zhao Nuo didn't intend to satisfy her gossip interest at all, and then suddenly remembered the matter and asked, "Do you know how to write a drama?" β
"I can only write about love, and I can't write anything else." Jian Hitomi replied.
ββIf Jian Hitomi can't do it, then I'll have to find another scriptwriter. Zhao Nuo thought about it secretly.
"Ghost and God Scriptwriter" Zhou Yan doesn't know anything except suspense and murder, and Jian Tong can only write about love, simply put, these two guys are "difficult to get into the hall of elegance". If you write a strict or bloody plot, you need another scriptwriter.
So, who to turn to?
"By the way, if it's that guy......"
Thinking of a possible suitable candidate, Zhao Nuo took out his mobile phone, found a long-dusty number marked "buddy" in the phone book, and pressed the call button.
His best friend in college was that guy. The man was good talker. color, but he has written several "fantasy novels" that are circulated throughout the class, and if it were him, he should be able to handle the main drama.
After waiting for about a minute, the other party finally picked up the phone: "Hey? β
"Is it Lin Ran? I'm Zhao Nuo. β
"Oh...... Xiaonuo, what are you looking for me? The male voice on the other end of the line sounded like he had just woken up.
"Uh, are you at work now?" Zhao Nuo asked.
"Of course, how long does it ......take to graduate from college," the man named "Lin Ran" changed his words: "You shouldn't have gone to work yet, right?" β
"Now our company needs a scriptwriter, who can control the drama or the kind with a bloody theme, do you want to come?" Zhao Nuo asked.
Although Lin Ran had already gone to work, he still asked. He still remembered the "Demon Swordsman Dragon Slayer" written by that guy, and the shock it brought to him, so much so that he couldn't burn up other bloody novels later.
ββIt's a shame that someone with such a literary talent can't write.
Lin Ran was silent for a while, and then laughed: "Xiaonuo, you are still like the same, even if you hear that I have to poach when I go to work, you really don't understand the world, hahaha!" β
"I'm just asking, I don't mean to force you to join." Zhao Nuo said seriously.
His communication methods are basically learned when he was a game streamer and playing GALGAME, which is indeed a bit jerky. But if you prepare, it's actually pretty good. Otherwise, there would be no way to convince Xia Xiaoling's father.
However, for a guy like Lin Ran, just get straight to the point.
"The current treatment of the company is really not good, and the boss is still a bastard who talks to the secretary every day." Lin Ran said: "It's not impossible if I want to resign, but I must confirm it first - do you have any beautiful women in your company?" β
"The boss is a beauty, and she is still recruiting people everywhere." Zhao Nuo's eyes seemed to see Xia Xiaoling's cute face.
"Ha, well, I'll submit my resignation tomorrow." Lin Ran's voice sounded excited: "Then I'll hang up first, bye!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Zhao Nuo smiled helplessly.
He hasn't changed much, and Lin Ran's guy is not like this, he's so impatient, plus good. The characteristics of the color are exactly the same as when I was in college.
However, that guy belongs to a typical "colored heart without lustful guts", and only when he talks to himself, can he open his heart and show his lewd nature, and he looks as serious as an old man on weekdays.
What's more, the guy is already married, and he also attended his wedding as a best man. So don't worry at all, he will attack the cute Xia Xiaoling......
When I was thinking about who else was missing from the company, I received a call from Lin Ran again:
"By the way, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you want to go and have fun together? At 12 o'clock at noon, let's go to the game hall in Imperial Square, I'm in for a treat. β
"Okay." Zhao Nuo smiled.
WHEN THEY WERE IN COLLEGE, THEY OFTEN SKIPPED CLASS TO GO TO THE ARCADE TO HAVE FIGHTING GAMES AND LIGHT GUN GAMES COOPERATION, AND EVERY TIME THAT GUY WAS DEFEATED, OR DRAGGED THEMSELVES DOWN IN GAME-OVER. But they still enjoy it.
Although most games like to play alone, it's more fun to work together with two people for something like a light gun game.
So, after lunch, Zhao Nuo rushed to Emperor Plaza and walked straight into the shopping center.
On the fifth floor of the shopping mall, in addition to the gym where you fought with the middle-aged people last time, there is also a large game arcade. The large hall was bustling with rows of various game machines. Everything from catching dolls to racing games to light gun shooting.
Looking at the colorful arcade screen, Zhao Nuo had a feeling of "going home". Then I saw a tall man in a torn T-shirt and jeans like himself walking briskly, with an irrepressible smile on his face:
"Oh, Xiaonuo, I miss you so much......" Zhao Nuo watched Lin Ran rush up and take himself into his arms.
"Damn, let me go, I'll be treated as a 'comrade'." Zhao Nuo pushed the guy away.
"Ha, it's been a long time since I've seen you kid still be like the same kid, and he hasn't aged at all." Lin Ran looked at Zhao Nuo.
"The same goes for you."
I recall that when the two of them came to the game hall together in college, it was the old days when they played for half a day. Even Zhao Nuo felt a faint sadness in his heart.
It seems that the student who was skipping class and playing the arcade with him yesterday has become an office worker who has married and had children today, and people can't help but sigh that time flies.
Thankfully, it's still the same.
Several old "The King of Fighters 96" machines were gone, and they were replaced by "The King of Fighters 13", which Zhao Nuo didn't like very much, and the machines of "Tekken 4" also became "Tekken 6". But overall, the arcade hasn't changed much.
Lin Ran bought a hundred game coins from the woman in red in front of the bar, and the two walked into the game hall together.
When passing by the familiar broken wooden chair in the corner of the room, Zhao Nuo saw that the familiar person was gone, replaced by an unfamiliar young face, so he subconsciously asked, "Where is Lao Li?" β
- In the past, the "administrator" who sat there to take care of the machine was a very powerful fighting game player, and although he was only in his early thirties, everyone used to call him "Lao Li".
That guy's usual entertainment is to "educate" some arrogant fighting game lovers, beating each other to the pain, but he snickers on the other side of the machine. Until he met Zhao Nuo.
"Lao Li went back to his hometown to get married, and now I will take his place. What's wrong? The new young man asked.
"It's okay, I just remembered the time when I taught Lao Li to be a man, haha." Zhao Nuo made a joke.
But the young man seemed to admire his predecessors very much, and muttered unconvinced: "Come on, Lao Li can't defeat someone like you, I think it's right that you were beaten and cri......ed by Lao Li."
This sentence naturally did not escape the ears of Zhao Nuo and Lin Ran.
"Boy, what are you talking ......about" Lin Ran's words were interrupted by Zhao Nuo before he could finish speaking: "You are Lao Li's apprentice?" β
"That's right, he taught me all his skills before he left!" The young man puffed out his chest proudly.
"So, are you willing to help Lao Li 'win glory'?"
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing that the other party was silent, Zhao Nuo shook the game currency in the translucent plastic box in his hand and made a "bang" sound:
"How about a fight with me on behalf of Lao Li? Any game here is fine, and the stake is one hundred in-game coins. β
The young man in the uniform of the game hall stood up without hesitation, and dropped a sentence as he walked towards the bar: "Compare and compare, who is afraid of whom, wait and cry!" β
"It's so young and vigorous." Zhao Nuo winked at Lin Ran beside him.
"Are you sure you can win? I don't think it's been a long time. Lin Ran asked.
"Don't worry, watch me. For naΓ―ve young people, it is better to let him understand the cruelty of 'reality'. Zhao Nuo said with a smile.
