Chapter 3 Pick-up

Lu Li rode his bicycle to Yanxi Cave, and there was no one in the community at four o'clock in the afternoon, and it seemed very quiet.

Open the door, push the bike in, and close the door with your backhand.

Entering the courtyard, putting the bicycle away, Lu Li reflexively entered the apartment.

On a cold winter evening, the light in the house was much darker than usual.

When it shines on the paddle of the drum kit next to the living room, it reflects a thin layer of light.

His fingers flicked over the drum, and Lu Li looked around the room.

After a moment's pause, he began to pack his things.

There are some daily miscellaneous items in the living room and kitchen, and there are still soaking dishes in the sink.

When he opened the refrigerator and looked at it, the food in it was quite complete, and he didn't have to think about going grocery shopping.

Temporarily unemployed, he has to start thinking about his own livelihood and that of his nephew.

Lu Li's movements in packing up his things were a little slow, and he kept a thoughtful expression on his face.

After finishing the work in the kitchen, Lu Li took Lu Haochen's books on the dining table and brought them back to his room.

The nephew's desk was a little messy, Lu Li probably cleaned it up for him, and then left the room.

After throwing away the garbage he had picked up, Lu Li returned to the apartment.

Looking at the clean but empty aisle he had just cleaned up, Lu Li stood calmly in place and stood for a few seconds, like a wooden man.

After the introduction, he turned his head, looked at the drum kit on the side, and walked over silently.

After sitting down steadily, Lu Li picked up the drum stick.

A slow but rhythmic percussion sounded, and after a gentle sound, the force on Lu Li's hand gradually increased, and the frequency also intensified.

The sound of the music began to spread through the room, whistling and rolling around.

And after the percussion filled the entire room, Lu Li still didn't have any intention of stopping, and the movements on his hands became even more frenzied.

The green tendons on his arms rose up, and every stroke of the drum stick carried infinite momentum, as if it was smashing this drum kit.

And just as the crazy metal beast was about to break out of the cage, Lu Li suddenly stopped what he was doing, and all the blows stopped abruptly, leaving only the metal paddles still echoing in a low voice.

After the aftermath was over, Lu Li, who had already eased up, took a small breath, threw the drum stick aside, and then stood up and left the drum kit.

But he had barely gotten up and was in front of the hallway when he heard the sound of a key opening the door from the door of the apartment.

Lu Li stood in place, looking at the door, and Lu Haochen appeared behind the door.

And behind Lu Haochen, there were two young boys.

"Uncle?"

Lu Haochen looked at Lu Li unexpectedly, obviously not expecting Lu Li to be at home at this point.

"Didn't you have a class this afternoon?"

Lu Li still stood still, looking at Lu Haochen at the door and asked.

"Yes."

Lu Haochen nodded in agreement, and then walked into the apartment, and at the same time moved away, revealing the young boy behind him.

"Uncle, this is my classmate, he and I are in the same class, and then this is my senior."

Lu Li nodded and greeted the two of them, then reflexively walked to the kitchen and stopped in front of the refrigerator.

"What are you going to drink? Water or drink? ”

The two unfamiliar young men were obviously a little nervous, and walked in woodenly, stunned for a second after hearing Lu Li's question, and then quickly agreed.

"No, uncle, we're not thirsty."

"Okay."

Lu Li simply agreed, but still took out the boxed juice from the refrigerator, and then took out two clean glasses from the cabinet door.

After the drinks and cups were lost on the coffee table in the living room, the two young men, though a little embarrassed, thanked them and took them.

And Lu Haochen also came to the living room, looked at the two of them, and turned his head to look at Lu Li.

"Uncle, this is what I told you, classmates who have been working on software together before."

"Hmm."

Lu Li simply agreed, and then glanced at Lu Haochen's two classmates.

The expressions of the two were very nervous, and their eyes were also glancing at Lu Li from time to time, but they did not speak.

After Lu Li reflexively left two steps, he stopped in place, and then turned to look at Lu Haochen.

"Did you come here today because it had anything to do with me?"

………………………………

Ten minutes later, in the living room, Lu Li sat on the single sofa, while the three college students sat on the long sofa.

After listening carefully to the statements of the three of them, Lu Li thought for a while, then raised his head to look at the relatively older student and asked.

"How old are you this senior?"

"Junior."

The senior replied immediately, looking at Lu Li's eyes full of anticipation.

Lu Li nodded slowly, and then said in a deep voice.

"So, you want me to believe that two freshmen and one junior can make a reliable software and invest 200 million won?"

Hearing Lu Li's words, the hearts of the two classmates sank, and Lu Li turned his head to look at Lu Haochen and said.

"Lu Haochen, this is half of your insurance money."

Lu Haochen also lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then raised his head, looked at Lu Li very firmly and said.

"Uncle, I believe we can succeed."

"I don't believe it."

Lu Li replied bluntly, and he looked at Lu Haochen very seriously.

"You're only in your freshman year, and your classes only teach computer basics. You want so much money with one mouth now, how can I agree. ”

"Freshman year isn't a problem, okay? I knew what I was taught, and now this software is something we put a lot of effort into making, and it's my money! ”

Lu Haochen's voice suddenly became a few points higher, and the two classmates next to him were worried.

"That's your money, so why can't you wait until next year when you're an adult and get it back for yourself, but now?"

Lu Li's voice was still flat, and his expression looked calm.

"The computer industry is changing with each passing day, and a day behind is a big step behind, and we can't wait that long."

Lu Haochen replied immediately.

"That's right, uncle."

The junior next to him also agreed.

"Nowadays, people can come up with several ideas a day, and some things that we think are creative now may be worthless in half a year."

Lu Li took a deep breath, thought for five or six seconds, and then looked at Lu Haochen again.

"What about the software you make? Can you show me? ”

"Yes, you can."

The junior next to him immediately jumped up, took out his mobile phone and was about to show it to Lu Li.

Lu Li also turned sideways and watched him walk quickly to the side of here, showing their app to himself.

The three of them made a dating software, the UI interface is average, but the functions are okay, more suitable for young people.

After watching for a while, Lu Li thought for two seconds again, and then took out his phone from his pocket.

"Give me your ID."

"Huh?"

The two classmates were surprised, not understanding what Lu Li meant.

But Lu Haochen next to him suddenly understood, and then looked at Lu Li helplessly.

"Uncle, they are absolutely reliable, no need to check."

"No one in this world is reliable."

Lu Li looked at Lu Haochen seriously and said.

"Including me."

Neither of the two classmates understood what Lu Li meant, but one of them still took out his ID card from his pocket.

But the other junior, he could only look at Lu Li awkwardly.

"Uncle, I'...... I didn't bring my ID card. ”

"ID number."

Lu Li said expressionlessly.

The junior paused, then nodded, and began to carefully report his ID number.

…………………………

Ten minutes later, Lu Li took the mobile phone and put it to his ear, waiting for the echo from the other end of the phone.

A moment later, a slightly muffled English male voice sounded.

"These two are ordinary college students, why are you asking me to check them?"

"No, it's just not reassuring."

Lu Li said relaxedly, then turned on the hands-free, and then put the phone on the coffee table.

The man on the other end of the phone continued.

"It's just two ordinary little hairy children, there's nothing to worry about...... Hey, you're on hands-free? ”

Lu Li looked up at the two of them, and then continued.

"They're right next to them right now."

The man on the other end of the phone understood, and then asked easily.

"Is your nephew too?"

"Hello, Uncle Elliot."

Lu Haochen greeted the man on the other end of the phone.

"Hello."

Elliott was quick to agree.

Because Elliott on the phone spoke very fast, the two classmates of Lu Haochen next to him all understood it, but they still understood the general meaning.

"Did you read the software I just sent you?"

Lu Li continued to ask Elliott on the other end of the phone.

"I'm looking at it now, and the features look interesting. I'm in the Netherlands, so I can't connect to their servers here. ”

Elliott said in a flat tone, and it didn't sound like much.

The expressions of the two students next to him changed a little instantly after hearing this, but they really couldn't do anything about it in the Netherlands.

"This was done by Lu Haochen and his two classmates, and now they want to take 200 million won out of the insurance money, almost ...... Two hundred and eighty thousand euros. ”

"Hmm...... A little adventurous. ”

Elliott on the phone thought and said.

But a moment later, he changed his mind again.

"But I'm still more supportive, maybe I can invest 50,000 euros."

"Isn't your money frozen in Switzerland?"

As soon as Lu Haochen and the three of them showed joy, Lu Li took the first step to speak.

"Hey, I have a hundred ways to get my money, you don't have to worry."

Elliot said casually.

"Okay."

Lu Li agreed in a low voice.

"Then I'll go back and transfer the money to you, I'll have to think about what to eat for lunch."

Elliott said casually.

"Thank you, Uncle Elliot."

Lu Haochen immediately shouted at the other end of the phone, and Elliott's voice rang with a smile.

"Little things, come on, I'm optimistic about you."

Hanging up Elliott's phone, Lu Haochen and the three looked at Lu Li again.

The latter thought for two seconds, then said seriously.

"I still won't touch the insurance money, I can give you my own savings first, plus Elliott's, although it is less than 200 million won, it is about the same."

"Thank you, uncle!"

The two classmates immediately stood up, and even Lu Haochen stood up.

And just as Lu Li was about to speak again, the mobile phone of his mobile phone suddenly rang again.

Lu Li looked down and saw that it was Elliott's number.

After thinking about it, Lu Li pressed the hands-free again.

"Hey, it's still me, I forgot to ask you about something."

Elliott's voice rang from the phone again.

"What's the matter?"

Lu Li asked flatly.

"Do you have time for these two days? Can you make an exception and help send someone. ”

Elliott said quickly.

Lu Li looked up at Lu Haochen, then put down his hand and pressed the hands-free, then picked up his phone, stood up and left.

"Who?"

Lu Li asked in a deep voice.

"A neon businessman, going to Indonesia in two days, Claude and Nakamura have agreed to come down, but Claude was injured in Morocco yesterday. There has been some chaos in Indonesia in the past two days, and Nakamura is not very relieved. ”

Elliott explained.

"Where's the injury?"

Lu Li said with concern.

"A shot point 44, pierced from under the shoulder blades, it's not a big deal, it's just to rest for a while."

Elliott replied.

Lu Li thought for two seconds, then nodded.

"Okay, I'll go find Nakamura tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll inform him."

Elliott said immediately, and hung up.

Putting down the phone, Lu Li turned around, walked to the living room, and came to Lu Haochen.

"I'm going on a long trip tomorrow, about two or three days."
