Chapter 15
Chapter 15
0141 did not give Xiang Ming and his party the answer they wanted.
He chuckled first, then said, "This is one of the things you guys need to explore in this game, isn't it? I'm here to provide explanations, but not shortcuts. You're asking this question too soon."
Another unanswered question.
0141 seems to have answered a lot of doubts about the game for them, but whenever the question involves a deeper aspect of the game, he either ignores it or directly skips it deliberately.
Fortunately, everyone did not have great hopes for this question. Even if 0141 did not refuse to answer, it must be "people who can make great contributions to the community" and the like, which is like pulling it out of a political textbook. s answer.
"This match is the first round of the remelting game, and player No. 6, Luo Manshan, will be eliminated. The next match will be the second round of the remelting game. It will start on time at ten o'clock the morning of the day after tomorrow in the basement meeting room. Please don't be late."
After reading this text, the eight people were invited out of the underground conference room by 0141.
Walking all the way to the first floor stairs without saying a word, Ruan Zemiao, who was the first to walk, noticed that the breakfast he had eaten in the morning hadn't had time to clean up, so he stayed where he was.
The rest of the people looked puzzled and followed his gaze...
The clock on the dining room wall suddenly struck twelve o'clock.
"Dang-dang-dang-"
Three slow beeps hit everyone's hearts.
The first person to react was still Susi, and the others watched her enter the kitchen with her hands in her pockets. After a while, she came out with packaged bread and two bottles of milk provided by the game organizer.
Feeling the eyes gathered on him, Su Si was not affected at all.
Since she was a child, she has always been the person who stands in the eyes, some are envious, some are jealous, some are bored, some are disdainful, some are suspicious, and some are guessing.
No matter how good she is, there are still a lot of negative emotions in her eyes, which is because she refuses to cater to the negative effects brought to her.
Suth understood that this might be with her for the rest of her life.
At the beginning, when I was young, I still felt pressured, but more of it was the pleasure, the pleasure of being myself.So Suth never thought of making corrections and integrating into "community groups" that he didn't like or even looked down upon.
People are alive, isn't it over when they are happy?
Only when passing by He Dongsheng, Su Si slowed down a little and handed the bottle of milk in his hand to He Dongsheng.
"Mr. He, it's time for lunch."
After He Dongsheng took it, regardless of whether He Dongsheng had something to say, Su Si went up to the second floor without looking back.
He Dongsheng looked at the milk in his hand, and he felt very relieved by Su Si's concern, but he didn't have any appetite, so he went up to the second floor after standing for a while.
Tian Jiashu walked to the dining room without a word to clean up the dishes on the table, and Ma Li followed behind her to help.
Diao Shishi was not used to such an atmosphere, he opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word, scratched his head, and went straight back to his room.
Ai Wen went back to the room and changed into sportswear and went to the gym.
In a blink of an eye, only Ruan Zemiao and Xiang Ming were left at the stairs.
No matter how hateful Ruan Zemiao was, he was just a newcomer in the community who had just graduated from university for a year, and in his impression, he was still a newcomer with not very good psychological endurance. As soon as Xiang Ming was about to speak, he felt a gust of wind blowing in front of him.
He turned his head to look at the stairs, and he could only catch up with Ruan Zemiao's back.
So without even thinking about it, Xiang Ming also ran upstairs.
After nearly two years of being together, his body is already used to it. When he saw Ruan Zemiao running away, his first reaction was to catch this brat.
It's not that it's in trouble, it's about to be in trouble.
After so many years, they are not familiar with each other. Xiang Ming, who had caught Ruan Zemiao before, was shut out by Ruan Zemiao this time.
"Open the door!"
He knocked on the door vigorously, completely forgetting that in order to avoid arousing the suspicion of others, the two of them talked like secret agents the day before.
It fully proved that Xiang Ming is a man who cannot be stimulated.
The sound of "bang bang bang" was really impossible to ignore. After Xiang Ming knocked on the door continuously for 3 minutes but stopped suddenly, Ruan Zemiao quietly opened the crack of the door to see if the lunatic had left.
Then he found Xiang Ming standing at the door.
Sitting on the sidelines?
Play tactics with me?
Ruan Zemiao opened the door and was about to yell at Xiang Ming, but found that Xiang Ming was not looking at her at all, but was fiddled with the watch on his hand with his head down.
???
When Ruan Zemiao was confused, Xiang Ming raised his head, and the two of them just met.
"What are you doing?"
"See if you can crack the door lock system."
……
"Has it been broken?"
"No."
……
Xiang Ming, who was always on the top when he was stimulated, realized at this time that the person standing in front of him was the person he was looking for.
"You opened the door? Then I went in."
Xiang Ming stretched his legs, squeezed Ruan Zemiao away, and walked directly into Ruan Zemiao's bedroom.
The door only opened a narrow gap for Ruan Zemiao to lean out alone, and it wasn't until Xiang Ming squeezed against the door frame that Ruan Zemiao followed with wide-eyed eyes.
"Hey!"
Xiang Ming had already sat down on the chair by the window.
Ruan Zemiao, who was helpless, could only try his best to vent his emotions to Xiang Ming, and closed the door firmly.
He Dongsheng, who was originally reading a book quietly in the atrium on the second floor, trying to calm himself down, quietly watched the farce.
I was a little confused for a while.
The appearance of Xiang Ming and the media promotion just now is different from that of the two days ago.
Ruan Zemiao's prickly attitude seemed to be most obvious only when facing Xiang Ming.
Is there a grievance between these two people?
Picking up the book again, he seemed to know something that others didn't know.
Did you come across it after coming to the game?
Added another touch of drama.
In the room, after the chair was occupied by Xiang Ming, Ruan Zemiao could only sit cross-legged on the bed, acting like an angry puffer fish.
Feeling that he had the upper hand, Xiang Ming crossed his arms and looked at him leisurely.
Will it explode if you prick it with a needle?
No, puffer fish inflate their bodies with water?
Zha Ruan Zemiao, he can't spit, right?
Tsk, it's a bit dirty.
"Xiang Ming."
Ruan Zemiao's slightly angry voice brought Xiang Ming back to reality, "I haven't even had time to hate you for your rude behavior of intruding into other people's rooms. Who do you want to show your disgusting face first?"
I hate you for spitting on my face in my mind Can I say it?
After observing Ruan Zemiao's expression, Xiang Ming remained silent, giving both parties a way out.
And by the way, the expression on his face was cleared in a second.
Seeing that the person on the opposite side resumed the expression of facial paralysis that has been used in the media and various gossip over the past few years.
Ruan Zemiao really couldn't figure out why some little girls insisted on giving birth to Xiang Ming.
He is picky and has a cleanliness, you know that?
Such a irascible man with high self-esteem and self-righteousness should blew himself up earlier to save resources for the community.
"My friend, the reason you took over my room is to come and feel the chair on my side. If your butt really likes it, I don't mind changing it with you."
Seeing that Xiang Ming still had no intention of speaking, Ruan Zemiao had no choice but to say again.
Is this old man going to sit until he grows old?
Xiang Ming's paralyzed expression finally loosened. He adjusted his posture, ignored Ruan Zemiao's provocation, and said, "I was at the stairs, and I saw you run away suddenly."
Ruan Zemiao waited for ten seconds and found that this friend had finished speaking.
He couldn't bear it and said, "Mr. Xiang, let me remind you that we are not a relationship between Tom and Jerry."
"What are you in such a hurry for?" Xiang Ming ignored Ruan Zemiao's interruption.
"What's none of your business?" Ruan Zemiao tilted his head and looked at him.
Seeing that Ruan Zemiao still had the foolish expression he had when he quarreled with him before, Xiang Ming said seriously, "Be more serious."
"What am I serious about?" Ruan Zemiao bent one leg, put his arms on his knees, looked straight into Xiang Ming's eyes and said, "If we really want to take it seriously, we should be opponents now."
Xiang Ming leaned forward, "Do you still want to participate in this game?"
"It doesn't seem like I can decide." Ruan Zemiao spread his hands.
"Let you quit early, you don't—"
Seeing that Xiang Ming was about to successfully enter the state of "teaching and educating people" again, Ruan Zemiao interrupted him: "When you asked me to quit, there was nothing I could do if I really wanted to quit. And as you can see, the game host Fang didn't want us out of the game at all. We didn't have a choice."
Xiang Ming could not refute.
"Now we can only continue playing. This is not a string of codes. There is no combination key for you to terminate the process." Ruan Zemiao said looking into Xiang Ming's eyes.Facing the reality, Xiang Ming once again felt such a profound sense of powerlessness.
The last time I felt this way was when he was in college...
The only similarity between the two is that both are related to Ruan Zemiao.
The room was quiet, staring at Xiang Ming's trouser legs, Ruan Zemiao couldn't help feeling a little dazed.
Today Xiang Ming is wearing a pair of dark gray suit pants.
He recalled the Xiang Ming he saw in magazines, on the Internet, and even in news reports. He looked like an elite in the suit and leather industry. The familiar Xiang Ming.
It's not what it looks like, Xiang Ming is already an elite in the industry.
Not only now, but also back then.
In college, he holds the highest scholarship all year round, but his parents in his hometown are old and have no income from labor. This campus elite has to use his spare time to work outside.
Wearing an old but well-washed sports suit, no-name sneakers, and thick black-rimmed eyes, Xiang Ming once disappeared from the public.Ruan Zemiao didn't care about this new tutor at the beginning. His father said that it doesn't matter how good this person is. Anyway, the teacher will soon find out that teaching himself to study is not something normal people can do.
When did it change?
Becoming cautious and becoming more and more intimate.
In the past five years, Ruan Zemiao couldn't help thinking about what it would be like when the two met again.
When he returned to the city, he had to say that he thought about meeting Xiang Ming at the next corner.
It's all because the urban traffic in the community is too developed.
The two have never met.
But that's okay, Ruan Zemiao was lucky when he remembered this incident later, he and Xiang Ming now are no longer from the same world.
He didn't want Xiang Ming to have to look down for a while before he recognized himself among the ants, he might as well never meet him.
……
And this idiot is not qualified to meet me!
Thinking that he and Xiang Ming were breathing the same air, Ruan Zemiao felt like he was about to suffocate!
No amount of money can conceal the fact that you are a scum with a depraved moral character and a beastly heart!
