Chapter 205: Spicy Hot Pot, Case Closed

"Dean, we were just talking about the game you were playing, and I swear, I didn't say anything bad about you."

Seeing Dean's gloomy face, Harry, who had just finished saying bad things about him, tightened his position locally and hurriedly explained.

He knew too well the seemingly handsome and personable man in front of him.

It's really good for friends, but it's not big-eyed.

Those criminals who provoked Dean are now probably starting to line up for reincarnation.

Once he remembered it, the passing dog barked, and he had to take two big mouths to leave.

Harry didn't want to be sent to the night market by this guy to try the detective's work-off re-employment program.

Caro, a cold man, also subconsciously lowered his head and pretended to be reading the information.

Only Daisy.

She watched Harry act like this, covered her mouth and chuckled, helping to divert the fire: "Dean, how about that Fallen Brave game?" ”

Dean said with a serious expression: "This game is very problematic, every level is actually a niche psychological hint, through screening, and finally select the gamers who meet the requirements and absorb them!" ”

"What do you mean?" Daisy hadn't played the game before, and some didn't understand it.

Harry's background is due to the fact that he has seen a lot of sinister, reacted, frowned, and said: "Dean, you mean, there is a problem with this game?" ”

"Yes, I passed the tenth level, and I was prompted to go to a website and leave a message, and I can get a voucher for ten US dollars, which can be used directly in many offline supermarkets."

Daisy answered: "This is normal, this should be a marketing tool, right?" ”

Harry and Carlo also nodded, saying that they did what the other party said, and they did get the exclusive exchange coupon, and they had used it, which was real and effective, and it was not a lie.

"But at the twentieth level, the requirement became for me to stand in the crowd, take a very silly video of myself, upload it to a fixed mailbox, and I will get a $100 voucher.

It's just that there is one more hint at this time! ”

"You actually played twenty levels in one afternoon?" , Harry and Carlo, looked shocked.

They have been working all night for so many days, and now they have been stuck at level nineteen, but Dean just played casually in the afternoon, and he has already cleared level twenty!

Dean nodded and said casually: "The first twenty levels of this game mainly test the ability of nerve reaction speed, hand-brain coordination, memory, strategy, etc., which is quite simple, in fact, I just finished the thirtieth level, which is more brain-consuming and delays me a little time!" ”

“FK!”

For this kind of Versailles remarks, Harry and Caro were hit hard, and suddenly felt that the game was not fragrant.

Daisy paid attention to the prompt in Dean's mouth: "Dean, what prompt did you just say?" ”

"From level 20 onwards, you need to choose whether to continue the game or end the game.

If you continue, the amount of the redemption code from the previous level will be accumulated before the next level.

Otherwise, my network IP will be locked and I will not be able to continue to clear the game and redeem rewards.

I chose to continue.

So."

Dean smiled evilly at Harry and Caro: "You don't have to worry about continuing that game, because I have already received the reward of the network IP of the sub-bureau." ”

"Oh."

Harry and Caro have a kind of frustration that the girl they have worked so hard to chase is taken to open a house when Dean beckons.

Daisy grinned and asked, "Dean, haven't you played thirty levels, and what's the hint for that level?" ”

"The thirtieth level becomes for me to trick my friends and shoot a video.

And I'll get a voucher for 1,000 dollars!

If I don't, then the $100 I got will be gone.

At the same time, that option came out again.

But this time something is different:

Congratulations, brave man!

You've proven your game, this round of 50 levels, the next level has a prize of $10,000, and the last level has a whopping $100,000 and you will receive an invitation to the next round.

The next round of the game.

Starting Bonus, $100,000!

Continue or end? ”

Speaking of which.

Dean looked at the three of them, who were breathing a lot, "Now, do you still think this is still an ordinary marketing method?" ”

On the bright side.

The requirements are all simple, almost picking up money.

But this is actually a very simple and crude psychological suggestion.

Think about it.

When you find that you only need to do something that looks stupid, but can be done with gritted teeth, you can easily get a lot of money.

How many people can resist the temptation?

It's not fatal.

The fatal part is that if you want more, you need to press on the previous gains.

From this moment on.

Your unbanked business becomes gambling.

With each harvest, your sunk costs are increasing, while the previous bonus is increasing tenfold.

This time.

You have changed from a brave player to a gambler, and the more you go to the back, the more reluctant you are to let go, even if the task requirements are very uncomfortable, and even challenge your bottom line, I am afraid that many people will choose to try in the end.

"The Fallen Brave" should refer to this process.

The three Daisy don't have such a good brain and knowledge as Dean.

Daisy was shocked by the cost of the game: "Wow, 100,000 dollars, I'm excited about what you said, let alone tricky friends, even if I feed Harry gold, maybe I'll give it a try." ”

Harry: "Why me! ”

Daisy blinked her big eyes and said innocently, "Because here, you are my best and closest colleague and friend." ”

Oh, woman.

Thank you so much!

Harry rolled his eyes and looked at Dean: "Dean, according to what you say, there is indeed something wrong, after all, there are so many people in the game, and there are special strategies, and I am afraid that there are many people who can reach fifty levels in the end, if it is publicity, the cost is a little too high." ”

"Yes, we didn't see the promotion of this game, and those who knew about it basically saw and downloaded it through some web pop-ups, or recommended by friends.

Actually, I asked my big brother Robert and some of my friends.

None of them knew about the game.

On the contrary, many of Harry's friends have been discussing it recently, but not many of his friends have computers!

In this way, it does look like filtering users. ”

Carlo added Harry's words, and then said with some excitement: "Boss Dean, should we go and find out the team behind this game?" ”

He was curious about the secret behind the game.

Harry's eyes lit up and he chimed in: "Dean, I think Carlo is right, since you think there is something wrong with this game, we can try to start with their design team. ”

The investigation is fake.

He simply wanted to get some insider information, so that he could cheat and clear the later levels.

Seeing that these two mouthfuls took advantage of their positions, they thought about some small ninety-nine.

Dean rolled his eyes: "First of all, this is just my guess, take a step back, even if there is really a problem with this game, this kind of crime all over the United States of America is not something that we small characters have the ability to deal with."

And have you ever thought about a thing? ”

Dean took out a calculator from the desktop: "The Fallen Brave, the first twenty levels, in fact, are really not difficult, as long as ordinary people are willing to spend time to try, they can basically pass in the end."

That's the case.

As long as the game side doesn't want to have a negative impact.

Then the cost of a player is 110 dollars.

For now.

They don't have a fixed profit point yet.

Do you think that ordinary small forces can afford to play? ”

After listening to Daisy, she turned on the computer, crackled, and finally turned her head and said: "I searched the web page of "The Fallen Brave" to leave a message, and there are special topics, some people have counted that the players who have passed the second level at present, in just ten days, at least more than 10,000. There are at least 100 players who pass the third level. ”

This kind of topic is very hot for netizens who are addicted to the game "Fallen Brave".

So it's not hard to search.

"In other words, in ten days, at least one or two million dollars have been invested in this game?" Harry listened and swallowed.

The biggest gain in his life was the last time he followed Dean to Texas, and he ended up picking up $50,000 for nothing.

Carlo is not as money-obsessed as him, and his mind is clearer: "Harry, what you said is just a bonus investment, but now there are various advertising pages on the network server, and the cost is not low." ”

The game team of "Fallen Brave", the game has been online for more than ten days, and they can't figure out how much they have invested.

But for sure.

This team is not bad for money.

The American Federation is a capitalist society on the surface.

Be aware of that.

Harry and Carlo were deflated.

Dean is right, this simple little game, even if it is really problematic, is not something that these little people can provoke.

"Alright, don't worry about this game, get off work!" , Dean slapped his face: "I'm in for a treat tonight, let's go eat hot pot together!" ”

"Is that the Chinese food you promised Daisy?"

"Yes, two hundred and fifty dollars per person."

"Let's go!"

Harry is an optimist, and when he hears that there is free goodies, his mood is getting better again.

Anyway, the rewards of that game are locked up by Dean.

In that case, then turn grief and anger into strength and eat it back!

Chinatown, hotpot city.

Daisy looked at Dean with a wry look in her eyes.

Originally, he invited himself alone, but Dean waved his hand and directly became a group dinner for the team.

It's really nothing.

It's all Dean paying anyway.

But Daisy just didn't feel good!

So, I asked the waiter about the taste.

Daisy, who is not weaker than others in her life, waved her hand and directly asked for the heavy spicy food that was highly recommended by the waiter!

Meat in the United States is not expensive.

But here, the prices are really not cheap.

A small plate of mutton, the supermarket is about only a US knife, and here it is directly 3.99 US dollars.

A small dish of tofu, 3.99 US dollars.

A stack of hot sauce, 1.99 US dollars

In short, what you eat is a fresh and forced.

After a while, large and small plates were placed on the cart, and at the same time, the bottom of the pot on the table was also boiling, and it could be opened directly.

In order to take care of the customers here.

The store provided a variety of knives, forks and chopsticks, and there was a waiter waiting on the side, teaching Daisy how to eat hot pot properly, and said some precautions before walking aside.

The bottom of the red pot is boiling, which makes people look very appetizing.

The three of them couldn't wait to roll up the food they wanted to eat, put it in the pot, and according to the waiter, it was slightly hot, and then lifted it and blew it twice and put it in their mouths.

The next moment.

Harry and Carlo, with a blank expression, ate the meat with bitter faces.

It's hot and spicy, so that they are used to eating salty, sweet, light and simple tastes, and they are really a little uncomfortable.

Daisy reacted more.

She wanted to vomit, but when she saw Dean on the other side smiling at him, she gritted her teeth and ate it.

One bite or two.

The charm of the spicy taste comes out.

The more you eat, the spicier it gets, and the spicier it gets, the more you want to eat it.

No one chooses to refrain from this hearty appetite before the fire burns a part

The next day.

Dean had a rare sleep, and it wasn't until ten o'clock in the morning that he came to the Central Bureau, slowly and whistling.

Come outside the office.

Dean just wanted to go in.

Click~

The office door opened from the inside, and a bald head poked out.

I saw the bald patrolman Hawke, with a look of surprise and oddity, coming out of it.

Meet Dean.

Hawke was stunned, just wanted to say hello, but as if he thought of something, his eyes immediately looked at Dean's local area.

Dean's face darkened: "Hawke, I have to remind you, the gaze is obscene, and it is also obscene, if you don't want to have a small tail on the part, just look away!" ”

Hawke raised his hand in surrender: "Okay, I'm indeed a little obscene, but it's not my fault, it's really Harry They are too weird, I heard Harry's good looks today, saying that Harry was cheated on by someone last night and walked with a limp."

I was curious, so I came over to take a look, and it turned out that not only Harry, but also Daisy, and even Caro, a newcomer to your squad, were all "

When he said this, he didn't seem to know how to describe it, so he grabbed his hips with both hands, pulled them outward, and then limped away.

"That's probably what they are now."

Hawke looked at Dean with a wicked smile: "I asked Harry, Harry didn't want to say more, just said that you had a team dinner yesterday, Dean, can you call me for the next dinner, although I am old, but my ability to accept it is okay, and I also want to try what you young people like to play." ”

“,”

This lewd bald man!

Talking about dinner.

But there is another layer of meaning on the face: Did you drive a silver party and a small train last night?

Dean wordlessly took out the coupon from his pocket that was given by Hot Pot City last night: "You can take your colleagues to try the atmosphere there first, remember, be sure to order heavy spicy flavors, you will definitely find a new world!" ”

"Exciting?"

"It's very exciting, and it can guarantee that no matter how old or young, you will end up with red faces and sweat, but the mood is very happy and you don't want to stop."

Hawke listened to Dean's description, licked his lips, and took the coupon: "Okay, Dean, I didn't expect there to be more places like this in Los Angeles, as a local patrolman, I think it is necessary for me to take my colleagues to test the depth of the other party tonight!" ”

"Let's go~"

Dean smirked at Hawke's back as he left.

I hope that when Hawke takes his brothers to eat's spicy hot pot, he will bring his respective wives with him, otherwise it is estimated that it will cause a lot of family suspicion and tragedy.

After all, there are indeed a lot of here.

It's another day of fishing.

The crew in Moreth's mouth turned themselves in and hadn't come yet.

But Dean wasn't in a hurry.

Now, he spends more time reading books to enhance his knowledge, and occasionally has a private chat with Xiao Mike through the chat software edited by Xiao Mike to exchange some recent information.

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

In Dean's mind, the information that the experience points had finally arrived in his account came.

The one who turned himself in came.

The cruise ship murder case is closed.

Excessive chapters.

Mobile phone code word, regularly sent chapters, sorry.
