"Hello, I want to rent an apartment and live alone."

"Okay, please provide me with your ID."

“947769。”

"Okay, please wait." The service staff at the front desk was entering the account number on the computer, and at the same time, a camera was also transferred to the front desk, on the woman with sunglasses, "I'm sorry, I can't recognize your ID here, please take off your sunglasses, we can recognize your face." ”

So, she slowly took off the sunglasses on her face, revealing fair skin, a pair of crystal clear big eyes with a few faint freckles, with her curly hair, it was a bit of a foreigner.

"Try again." She said lightly.

"Okay." The front desk staff continued to type the account on the computer, and she silently recited "three, two, one" in her heart. From the expression at the front desk, you can find that the query has been successful.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting, Miss Shi." The front desk smiled and apologized.

"It's okay." Shi Wei replied.

"Do you have any special requirements?"

"Room 8014." Shi Wei blurted out.

"I'll help you look it up." I checked in front of the stage to make sure that it was idle, and then replied, "Do you need a room card or fingerprint?" ”

"Keycard."

"Okay." After a brief operation in front of the stage, he handed her a room card, "The elevator is on your left." ”

"Thank you."

Shi Wei took the room card and walked to the elevator on the left, and after getting on the elevator, she directly pressed the button on the eighth floor.

Located on Bluestone Street, the only street without robots, the hotel occupancy rate here has been sluggish because fewer and fewer people are accustomed to the convenience of computerized services.

Shi Wei walked out of the elevator, and the corridor was a little dim, and she could hear her every footstep quietly.

She walked straight to the end of the hallway and opened the door to room 8014 with her keycard. It's simple, but at least it's clean. The window is positioned just in time to see the bluestone street perpendicular to the front. People pass by the road in twos and threes, enter the restaurant, or wander around the small shop, comfortable and comfortable. And in the distance is the bustle of the city, isolated here, forming a stark contrast.

Shi Wei put down her luggage, took out her mobile phone in her pocket, and typed under a gray avatar: I'm back.

After a few seconds, the other one, still with a gray avatar, replied: Welcome back.

Shi Wei put her phone on the table, came to the window, and continued to look at the scenery in this area, and her mobile phone was always muted, so as not to affect her thoughts.

……

"Do you remember Cheng Jiyun?" Chen Xizhou plucked up his courage and asked about the man in the black suit.

And his sudden question made a man and a woman next to him seem a little surprised, when did this person come out and suddenly ask such a sentence.

"Ha, haha." The man suddenly laughed, "Who are you?" ”

"I, I'm a friend of Cheng Jiyun, we used to drink here together, I remember that he looked for you......" Chen Xizhou said, and the man in front of him was not bored at all, but listened carefully, and drank the wine in his hand by the way.

After Chen Xizhou finished speaking, he glanced at the beauty beside him by the way, there was a special beauty.

"And what do you want to say?" The man continued.

"I, I just want to ask, do you remember him?"

"Yes." The man took a sip of wine, "All the people who have looked for me, I remember, that kid is also an infatuated species. ”

After he finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and touched it with the beautiful woman, and took a sip with a grin. And the beauty just took a sip and never spoke.

"I want to find him." Chen Xizhou said, "You should be able to find it, right?" ”

"Looking for him?" The man laughed, "I'm not looking for anyone now, I'm too tired, I'm too tired." He smiled and shook his head.

"Not looking for it?" Chen Xizhou was suddenly a little disappointed, "He has only disappeared for a year, it should be easy to find." ”

"I won't look for a day." I didn't expect him to refuse again so quickly, there was no room for negotiation.

Chen Xizhou originally wanted to say something, but the man had already gotten closer to the beautiful woman, and continued to drink their wine, so he didn't plan to deal with him.

So let's just do it.

Chen Xizhou turned around and left the bar and returned to the radish.

"What are you doing in the past?" Radish asked, "Do you like that kind of beauty?" ”

"Nope." Chen Xizhou was slightly disappointed, "I'll just go and say hello." ”

"Huh." Radish smiled and said, "You can go on!" ”

"Continue with what?" Chen Xizhou doesn't understand, this guy wants to see him look foreign today?

"When you left, that beautiful woman looked back at you, and it seemed to be interesting to you." The turnip thief laughed, "You can try again." ”

"Try what?" Chen Xizhou drank his own wine, "I'm not here to find a beautiful woman, I'm just really going to say hello." ”

Seeing that Chen Xizhou didn't plan to continue this topic, and the radish was also very interesting, he didn't mention it.

After the end of the bar trip, Radish was very happy, and got the accounts of several beautiful women, ready to contact at any time. On another day, Chen Xizhou should have gained something, but he didn't expect that he was disrupted by the sudden appearance of someone for a night, but maybe it was only because Cheng Jiyun said goodbye at the beginning, so he would care.

Back in the apartment, he didn't want to sleep after drinking, he turned on the computer, what should he do?

There were still those strange emails in the mailbox, I really don't know who sent them, and I don't know what these things in them mean, I didn't think to study them at first, but now I took them out and looked at them, as if I could find something, but he tried many times, deciphered the numbers, and still found nothing.

Domain name?

Chen Xizhou entered this string of numbers on the computer, but it was still useless, so what should be done?

Well, that's the best way to give yourself a headache.

However, the small white box on the table caught his attention. Inside is the game patch developed by the company, placed on his temple, with data linking, he can enter the game.

It's past the wee hours of the morning, will anyone still be in the world of the game?

Chen Xizhou decided to give it a try, then launched the game's settings in his phone, selected the scene level, and then linked in.

With the data linked, he closed his eyes and walked into a colored trajectory as if he had fallen asleep. The bright yellow number reminds him that he will be counting down to three seconds to enter the official game, so he is ready to get ready.

Counts 3, 2, 1......

There was a commotion and he remembered that he had entered an online club.

This virtual club has all kinds of nightly entertainment, and of course: minors are not allowed to enter.

Such a place is not exactly the same as the outside world, and to put it bluntly, some of the behaviors that are forbidden outside are allowed here.

For example, gambling.

The club is divided into three parts, the first part is just an ordinary bar, where a lot of men gather, of course, women. The women on the dance floor who are constantly swaying are their pastime. The second part is a casino, where all kinds of men in fancy clothes wear a variety of costumes and spend money on the chess table. The third part is a boxing ring, where they can match up with a random person for a duel and bet as long as they like.

But unlike their identity, these people who are being used as bets are not eligible to exchange for equipment, they are really just fighting hand-to-hand with their strength, in order to survive and reward.

This game is not defensible for some people, some people are willing to spend a lot of money, and of course there are people who are willing to gamble their lives and take what they need.

Chen Xizhou entered this game, of course, his identity is different from others, they are really rich and powerful people, and he is just a poor dick. These people have read countless people, and they know who he is at a glance, so they naturally won't pay attention to him.

And Chen Xizhou is just a rare game like this to feel the atmosphere. Maybe I'm just like them, just come in and release my pressure.

Sitting under the boxing ring, feeling the strong confrontation atmosphere, the people on the stage sweated like rain, fighting to the death, and the audience shouted fiercely than those who just wanted to come here to fight. The real bigwigs all sat silently on the sofa in the stands, with a glass of foreign wine and a cigar, hugging left and right by the way. What they care about is not winning or losing, but this desire, watching them do their best to survive, but they enjoy it with peace of mind.

This kind of gap is what they enjoy the most.

Chen Xizhou found a corner and sat down, followed them to look at the people on the stage, one of them was already covered with blood, but no matter how many times he beat his stomach, he still had to stand up, in his opinion, this is completely self-conscious, but who doesn't want to earn his last breath, maybe there is hope?

"Bet?"

Unexpectedly tonight, a man next to him took the initiative to ask him.

"Me?" Chen Xizhou was stunned for a moment, "I won't ...... I'll take a look. ”

"That's not interesting." The man continued, "Just look at the lack of involvement. ”

Chen Xizhou smiled far-fetchedly: "I don't have the capital." ”

"Didn't you?" The man glanced at him carefully, then said meaningfully, "I see you have." ”

Chen Xizhou put away his smile: "Don't you know who I am?" ”

The man laughed even more generously: "How could I not know, you are an employee of the Choose company, so you came in plainly, without looking at beautiful women and not betting." ”

Chen Xizhou listened to him, and from the man's determined tone, he was a little flustered.

"Don't you want to make a fortune here?"

"No, I don't want to." Chen Xizhou vetoed, "I don't have any privileges here, and I don't want to make money from other people's lives." ”

"Huh." The man sneered, "Yes." ”

Chen Xizhou originally thought that he would give up, but he didn't expect him to stretch out his hand to Chen Xizhou and say, "Lend me a chip." ”

"What?" Chen Xizhou didn't react, "What chips?" ”

"When everybody enters the game, they have an extra chip on them that you can use to place bets." He explained, "If you win, those are yours, and you lose them." As an insider, you don't never know, do you? ”

Chen Xizhou was really a little confused, he had never paid attention to it.

"Of course, if you don't do anything and you get out of the game, the chips will disappear automatically. Therefore, those who win money must redeem it to their own account before going out. ”

Chen Xizhou touched his whole body, and sure enough, he took out a "100" chip from his jacket pocket.

The man moved his fingers: "Borrow me?" ”

Chen Xizhou hesitated, he didn't need this thing anyway, so he put it in the palm of his hand.

The man put away his chips with satisfaction, and then said to him, "You stand in the stands, which one do you guess will win?" ”

"What?" Chen Xizhou turned his head in a daze, looking at the two people on the stage, the game has entered a white-hot state, it is obvious that the man with a bloody face is about to hold on, but he is still holding on.

"You can place bets until the game is over." The man blew in Chen Xizhou's ear, "I'm going to catch the last train." ”

"Before the end?" Chen Xizhou frowned, "Isn't this unfair?" That person is obviously going to fail, isn't the bet guaranteed to win at this time? ”

"So, the more you get to the end, the smaller the bet you can make." The man picked up the 100 chips and shook them, "Who would you bet on if you thought it was you?" ”

"Me?" Chen Xizhou looked at him in surprise, "How do I know?" ”

"Pick any one."

Chen Xizhou suddenly became overwhelmed, let him choose? He looked at the man in front of him, and then at the two people in the stands......

"I don't know, I just don't want him to lose, he's been holding on for a long time......" Chen Xizhou didn't finish speaking, only to see that the man next to him had already beckoned to the waiter, and then handed the chips to him, deciding to bet on the man with a bloody face.

"Why are you already down?" Chen Xizhou panicked, "I'm just talking casually, I have no experience." ”

"I know." The man smiled pleasantly, "That's it, I believe in your luck." ”

"That ......"

"Don't be nervous, losing is also a game bonus."

Chen Xizhou breathed a sigh of relief, too, what are you nervous about.

He turned his gaze back to the boxing ring, and by this time the bloodied man's body had begun to shake, but he was still holding on, and now if the other party punched him, he would definitely stop eating. At this time, they were all waiting, who seized the opportunity, and the man on the opposite side obviously couldn't wait, stretched out his right hand, but he didn't expect the other party to dodge, he didn't hold it, and a man who slipped and fell to the ground, with a bloody face, took the opportunity to sit on him, used all his strength, and swung his fist on his head over and over again......

There was a burst of boos from the audience, no one thought that this man would have a chance to turn over, until the other party couldn't get up at all, and the competition was over!

"How can it be ......" Chen Xizhou was stunned by the sound of inverted colors, and the man in his ear had happily taken the two chips from the waiter.

"There's nothing surprising about it, where doesn't life take a turn?"
