Ding-dong-dong-

The automatic sensor doors of the small supermarket open and close, and groups of customers come and go.

"15 pieces of 9."

Zheng Zhuo sat behind the cash register. He skillfully takes the goods from the customer, scans the code, stuffs it into a plastic bag, and hands it to the other party.

His senses are more precise than an auto-sensing door. As soon as a customer starts walking towards the cash register, his head will immediately be raised, and as soon as the customer leaves, he will lower again.

There are several ledgers on the countertop. Zheng Zhuo lowered his head just to confirm these accounts.

He put down the barcode scanner in his hand and picked up the pen.

"3089 minus 1972, deducting 4 cents per ......"

Zheng Zhuo pressed the calculator. He pressed so fast that the sound was a non-stop "click".

Ding-dong-dong-

Guest checkout.

Zheng Zhuo looked up.

"39 pieces of 3."

Ding-dong-dong-

"8 pieces. Yes, sweep here. ”

Ding-dong-dong-

“…… Wow. ”

This time, what appeared in front of Zheng Zhuo was no longer a customer looking around, but a familiar face to him.

Black square-rimmed glasses with short mushroom head. The person who came was Xue Ying, the daughter of the owner of the small supermarket. At the moment, her mouth was half open, and she looked incredulous.

"Zheng Zhuo."

She pointed to the stacked ledgers on the counter. The orange-covered ledgers were stacked in a pile and neatly placed inside, and what Zheng Zhuo was turning over now in his hand was a set of blue-covered account sheets.

"You've settled all the accounts for this quarter?" She asked, looking at the orange mountains.

"That's right."

Zheng Zhuo nodded.

"You've only been flat for a few hours, haven't you? It's hard to imagine that you were a complete newcomer seven days ago. ”

Xue Ying looked Zheng Zhuo from head to toe again, as if she had seen him for the first time.

"You've done it faster than I did. How are you - you've been getting it? Counting back and forth what stuff didn't drive you crazy? ”

"It's fine."

Zheng Zhuo finished counting the last number of the blue ledger and closed the blue ledger. He stood up.

"Practice makes perfect." "Let's take advantage of the lessons I learned from my last job." ”

"Ha ......"

Xue Ying still found it hard to believe, she scratched the root of her ear.

“…… Anyway, I haven't seen that ledger. Blue. ”

"Oh, that's what you say?"

Zheng Zhuo looked at the blue ledger in his hand.

"This is the phone next door that runs the storefront. They came to buy things, and they saw that I was calculating quickly, so please let me help them do the math. ”

……

Zheng Zhuo walked out of the small supermarket and turned around and entered the operator's store next to it. He handed the account book to the clerk who thanked him, and accepted the labor fee for the help—50 yuan.

Walking out of the storefront, Zheng Zhuo stretched out in the night.

There's actually quite a lot of content in that ledger. However, Zheng Zhuo didn't feel so bad. At least, after hours of continuous work, his mood was still stable — from the inside out, not from the outside, but on the inside.

"[Psychic Resistance: Insanity is ineffective]...... It can't be this at work. ”

Zheng Zhuo exhaled white smoke in the cold air.

Is the work of the real society an action that will increase the value of madness?

He seems to have discovered some incredible secrets about the real world.

“…… Ha ha. ”

Zheng Zhuo took out his mobile phone and clicked on the e-wallet.

This week's weekly payroll has arrived. For the first time since rent, the balance exceeded four figures.

"Uh-okay."

To live is to survive. And, the performance is not bad.

"Let's take advantage of the valuable experience I gained from my last job."

He remembered what he had just said and flipped the page of his phone screen again.

[Collective subconscious].

He clicked into the software.

[Subconscious World]. The Town World, Ocean World, Dungeon World, and Pure White World are all in an unclickable state. [Subliminal Voting] can still be used, but it is not necessary for the time being.

- And then.

There is a third tab.

Personal Information.

……

[Participant: Zheng Zhuo]

【Location: Explorer】

[Worlds cleared: Town World, Ocean World, Dungeon World]

[Subconscious World Ability: Identification/Rapid Cast]

[Real-World Ability: Mental Resistance: Insanity Invalid, Class Mastery Speed *10]

……

The last item is the ability he and the Blue Dragon gain after the speed of life and death, [Class Mastery Speed *10].

This is what he calls the valuable lesson left by his "last job".

If [Psychic Resistance: Insanity Doesn't Matter] can only give him a vague sense that it may have a role in his life, then [Class Mastery Speed *10] gives him a more intuitive feeling.

It was clear to him that the speed with which he became familiar with the work, both as a clerk and as an accountant, was surprising.

After leaving the [Pure White World] that day and waking up on a bench in the park, Zheng Zhuo began to work—work in reality. Then, after only seven days of work, he became a veteran.

7 days of service = 70 days of service......

Maybe not yet.

He worked seven days in a row. In other words, if he follows the normal weekend, he is equivalent to 98 days of work.

About four months of work experience.

The accounting aspect is even more terrifying. He counted back and forth for 3 hours on and off. It's acceptable here. But after the conversion, I had 30 hours of experience in accounting processing...... It's kind of scary.

At the very least, he felt like he was past the level of entry.

Using this skill to do odd jobs is really overkill.

"If I do something better, I can't get an annual salary that I can't imagine......

Zheng Zhuo stared at his phone.

The young woman said she would give him a notice. But after a week, there was no movement from the [Collective Subconscious] software.

Regardless of the notice of the order, there is no remittance of tens of millions.

If you want to eat, you still have to be self-reliant.

"Why don't you find a job that requires more technical skills?"

Zheng Zhuo thought.

Anyway, he didn't have anything to do: he didn't have to rush to find real people anymore. He saw them in the [Pure White Space] - they hadn't left the subconscious world anyway, and they must all be vegetative now. Even if you find them, you can't communicate with them.

"More technical work...... What about skilled trades? No, hardcover ......"

Just when Zheng Zhuo began to think.

Airplanes.

In front of his eyes, the [Collective Subconscious] software vibrated for a moment.

The software opens automatically. The White World began to glow.

“……”

The timing is too coincidental.

Is this some kind of anti-hopping tactic?

Zheng Zhuo stared at it wordlessly for a long time.

"If you can, I would prefer to have tens of millions of SMS arrivals......"

Zheng Zhuo sighed, and then, clicked on it.

……

Zheng Zhuo appeared in the [Pure White World] again. He stepped on the ground and saw at a glance the difference between this place and the previous one.

The egg sheath that originally contained Chu Huairen and Zhuang Yusheng was broken. Where they were originally was, only the pedestal of the eggs remained, and the people inside had long since left.

"They recovered. It's been sent to their own bodies. ”

The young woman is always there, and always in the same position - sitting facing the computer.

"Oh."

Zheng Zhuo just wanted to "look for it useless".

"How's the money transfer?"

“……”

“……”

“…… It's harder than I thought. I will continue to try hard. ”

Good. Needless to say, Zheng Zhuo already understood.

“…… Anyway, congratulations on the end of your vacation. ”

The young woman looked around the screen and looked at Zheng Zhuo and said.

"You've recovered pretty well. It's time to think about the next world. ”

She snapped her fingers. The golden card appears out of thin air. However, this time it has been reduced from eleven to nine.

"That's right."

In fact, Zheng Zhuo didn't feel that he was on vacation. If anything, he feels like he has moved from the main business to the side business.

…… Don't think about things that will be sad.

A side hustle is saving others. Doesn't that sound like a good thing?

Zheng Zhuo said this to himself, and became a little happier.

He clicked on the nine cards in front of him in turn.

……

[The naïve]. A young girl learns swordsmanship and magic in a castle-like school.

[Rebel]. The fat man I've seen once hides on the top of a medieval castle at night, plotting something.

[Magician]. The old man, who had once wandered in the wilderness in an RV, carried his shotgun to the outskirts of the ruined city. In the distance, zombies howled.

[Hero]. A tall man in power armor leaves the battlefield where he fights monsters. He returns to the mothership in space in a giant airship to find his next target on the star map.

[Love species]. I have seen a fashionable woman walking through the dirty streets under the bright lights of the modern city. She squeezed into the crowded underground livehouse, entered the backstage, and lifted the curtain of the underground black doctor's private practice.

[Joker]. The red-haired woman opened the window of the tower, towering into the sky and shimmering with fantastical light. As she recited something, the dangerous collection of books glowed darkly, and the dim cumulus clouds in the distance gradually gathered.

[Caregivers]. A middle-aged woman works on a farm deep in the forest. She grew many plants that could not be named, with huge sharp teeth or inflated canopies.

[Ruler]. The explorer man I had seen was still drinking in the inn. Only this time, the knife he stuck on the table was bloodied.

[Creator]. A beautiful woman flies with a sword. She flew through towering mountain peaks, pavilions in the distance, and flew into a wonderland among the clouds.
