The red glow is like fire, and the sunset melts gold.

The weather in Tokyo in autumn is crisp, the clouds in the sky are blown away by the strong wind, the glassy sky is dusty, and birds fly by from time to time.

The sunset was shining, dragging his suitcase and walking on the streets of Tokyo, thousands of kilometers away from his hometown, Su Cheng felt a little melancholy in his heart.

"This is it."

Leaving some negative emotions behind, Su Cheng got off the train at Shinjuku Station and found the apartment complex he rented according to the location on the map. After completing the formalities and paying the cash, I followed the apartment manager to the thirteenth floor by elevator.

Standing outside the door of the apartment with house number 1301, Su Cheng took a deep breath, and when he was about to take the key to open the door, the door opened from the inside.

A long-haired young man with the temperament of a street singer opened the door and was inadvertently startled when he saw a person standing outside. Su Cheng noticed that the long-haired young man was carrying a garbage bag in his hand, and it seemed that he was about to throw garbage outside.

"Hello, I'm Su Cheng who moved here today, please take care of me." Su Cheng quickly looked at the roommate, except for the hairstyle of the wandering singer, everything else was quite normal.

"Chinese? My name is Ryosuke Araki. ”

"Well, I'm an international student in Waseda."

Su Cheng briefly introduced himself, and then moved his luggage to the vacant room. Ryosuke Araki looks like a cold artist and is very difficult to get along with, but he is actually a talkative and enthusiastic, helping Su Cheng tidy up the room together.

This apartment is not big in size, but the kitchen and bathroom are very clean and tidy, the only downside is that the floors and walls are a bit old.

However, Su Cheng is already very satisfied with being able to rent an apartment with such conditions at a not particularly expensive price in a prosperous area of Tokyo. The most important thing is that it is not very far from Waseda University, which is more than ten minutes away by subway, and the transportation is convenient. can save Su Cheng a lot of transportation expenses, you must know that the transportation expenses in the neon country are expensive and scary to death.

After tidying up the room, Su Cheng chatted with Ryosuke Araki for a while and learned that he was originally from Kyoto and came to Tokyo with a musical dream. But on the road to chasing his dreams, he encountered a series of setbacks, and he was still a bar singer for five years. Occasionally, I will go to the bustling commercial street to perform, hoping to be discovered by the talent scouts of music companies.

"Araki-kun, is there only the two of us in this apartment?"

In order to thank Ryosuke Araki, Su Cheng gave him a bottle of Erguotou brought from Huaxia as a thank you gift.

Ryosuke Araki is not hypocritical, he was originally an alcoholic, unscrewed the bottle cap and poured a mouthful of the second pot head, but was choked with tears by the spicy and stimulating taste.

"This wine is so strong, ahem." Ryosuke Araki coughed for a long time before he recovered, "There is also an uncle who works as an IT engineer in a game company, but this uncle often has to explode his liver and rarely comes back, so he is simply a social animal." ”

Social animal refers to employees who are treated like livestock in the company, which is a dejorative term for office workers in Neon Country.

"Neon's overtime culture is really scary." Su Cheng took a sip of cold water and remembered a certain liver exploding engineer who had crossed the other world.

After packing up the luggage, it was completely dark outside.

"Chengjun, I'm going out to sing at the bar. There is a delicious ramen shop nearby that you can go and eat. With that, Ryosuke Araki simply cleaned up and left the apartment and walked towards the subway station.

Being said by Ryosuke Araki, Su Cheng was really a little hungry.

When I walked out of the apartment building, I looked around the neighborhood and soon saw the delicious ramen shop that Ryosuke Araki had in his mouth.

"Welcome."

Pushing open the wooden door of the ramen shop, Su Cheng was surprised to see that this small ramen shop was already full of customers, and a strong aroma of bone broth came to his face.

Unlike the famous neon ramen chains, Ichiran Ramen and Hakata Ramen, this ramen shop is family-run. The manager is a middle-aged uncle who is quite obese and looks quite kind, and the employees of the ramen shop are his daughter and wife.

"There's still a place at the bar, so please take a look at the menu first."

Seeing a guest coming in, the daughter of the store manager, who was busy, hurriedly came out to greet Su Cheng and poured him a glass of cold water intimately.

"Touch more." Su Cheng squeezed to the bar and sat down, picked up the menu in front of him and looked at it seriously.

Regular soy sauce ramen is 680 yen, and a large portion of signature barbecued pork ramen is 1,180 yen, and toppings are not included......

This is a fairly affordable price in the expensive city of Tokyo, and a meal at one of Tokyo's slightly better restaurants will cost at least 2,000 yen.

Just when Su Cheng was struggling with which ramen to choose, a white-collar man dressed as a company employee sitting next to him came over, "Brother, it's your first time at this ramen shop, right?" ”

"Well, I just arrived here in Shinjuku today."

"The restaurant's signature barbecued pork ramen is delicious, so you should definitely try it."

Su Cheng's eyes fell on the picture of the large portion of the signature barbecued pork ramen, which looked indeed delicious, and it was easy to eat in large quantities. Generally, the canteen restaurant in Neon Country will not have a situation where the picture does not match the real thing, which can be assured.

"Boss, let's have a large bowl of signature barbecued pork ramen."

After ordering a ramen, Su Cheng opened his wallet and took a look. After paying the rent, the living expenses for this month are already stretched, and it seems that I have to find a way to find a place to work and earn money before I go to school.

Well, I'll figure out how to earn living expenses tomorrow, so I'll enjoy my first dinner in Tokyo first.

While waiting for the ramen noodles to come, Su Cheng's mobile phone suddenly vibrate.

He thought it was a message from home or school, but when he opened his phone, he found out that it was a promotional message for a mobile game.

"Tokyo Monster Raiders, download for a limited time?"

Curious, Su Cheng glanced at the content introduction of this mobile game, "Tokyo has fallen, and monsters are rampant. Players need to survive in Tokyo, which is full of spirits, banshees, and zombies? So, it's a post-apocalyptic survival game. ”

The introduction of this mobile game is quite attractive, but because there is no wifi in this ramen shop, Su Cheng can only choose to give up downloading it reluctantly.

But just when Su Cheng was about to click to give up, there seemed to be a mysterious force affecting him. By the time he reacted, his finger had already poked at the download option.

"Damn, my flow!"

Seeing the traffic of the mobile phone card burning wildly, Su Cheng was distressed, and what made him even more painful was that this broken mobile game actually cost a full 10 Gs!

What about the pit daddy?

"Before the traffic explodes, cancel the download as soon as possible."

However, to Su Cheng's despair, no matter what he did, he couldn't cancel the game download. In desperation, he decided to shut down the phone first, but his smartphone was like a virus, and even the shutdown button failed.

Just as he was hesitating whether to forcibly take out the mobile phone card, a message suddenly popped up on the screen.

"The Tokyo Monster Raiders download is complete, and it will automatically enter the game after 3 seconds."

Seeing the text on the screen, Su Cheng was stunned for three seconds, the game of 10 G's was downloaded so quickly, this is not scientific.

Role onboarding successful......

Scene Creation......

Su Cheng was stunned as he looked at the pieces of information that popped up on the screen, feeling as if he had been forced to be involved in some supernatural event.

After about 5 seconds, the screen inside the phone changed, and a strange skull appeared.

The scene is created, the current scene: zombie canteen, difficulty: 1 star.

Fulfillment Condition: Escape from the Zombie Cafeteria within 10 minutes.

Su Cheng stared nervously at the phone screen, only to see a countdown appear under the weird skull, but nothing terrible seemed to happen next.

Is it a prank?

"Guest, your ramen is ready, please enjoy it slowly."

Soon, a steaming bowl of ramen was brought to Su Cheng.

"Is it really a prank, I don't know which game production company is so boring." Su Cheng's nervousness eased slightly, and he picked up his chopsticks and prepared to enjoy this bowl of ramen.

It stinks.

At that moment, a pungent rancid smell came to my face. I saw that the bowl of ramen in front of Su Cheng was bubbling out with thick human blood, and the strong ramen turned into a lump of black woman's hair, and there were more than a dozen fat corpse maggots lying on it.

Seeing this bowl of human blood ramen full of corpse maggots, Su Cheng was so disgusted that he almost vomited all the bile.

"What's the matter, brother, is the ramen unappetizing?"

The white-collar man's voice sounded in Su Cheng's ears, but Su Cheng turned his head and saw that the white-collar man's face was pale, half of his face had rotted out, and a drooping eye "snapped" and fell into the hot blood soup.

However, the white-collar man didn't care at all, greedily pulled the "ramen" in the bowl, and swallowed the eyeball into his stomach.

The endless horror hit like a black tide, and Su Cheng's heart seemed to jump out of his chest, and he couldn't make a sound in fear. Although he is a big fan and hardcore player of Resident Evil horror games, the horror and oppression he feels when he comes face to face with zombies in reality is not something that ordinary people can bear.

"Zombie cafeteria! The scene in the game actually appeared in the real world? ”

At this time, Su Cheng suddenly felt a pain in his calf. Looking down, I saw a zombie child with a black green mouth and sharp teeth, who seemed to treat him as food, holding his legs and gnawing wildly.
