He put down the chopsticks he had just picked up, stood up and thought for a moment, then put his cell phone on the coffee table, opened the door and walked outside.
"What are you going to do?"
Tan Xiaoguang ran out when he saw that he didn't take his mobile phone. He didn't know what he was playing with.
"I'll be back as soon as I go."
Lin Yue ran down the stairs as he spoke and came outside the unit building.
It happened that Brother Liu on the second floor was going to work with his briefcase on his back. When he saw him standing downstairs, he couldn't help but smile: "Xiao Lin, where are you waiting for your eight meals?"
Brother Liu thought that Lin Yue was lazy again and let Badun go to the supermarket to buy things.
"No, I'm looking for our Xiahou."
"The cat is lost?"
"Well, I haven't seen you since I woke up this morning."
"Do you want to put up a sign or something?"
"Let's wait and see if it comes back on its own."
"That's right." Brother Liu nodded: "Then look for it and let's go."
"goodbye."
Lin Yue watched Brother Liu walk towards the parking place, turned around and entered the stairwell, his face suddenly darkened.
He must go out today.
Just now, I suddenly remembered the penalty for failing the world mission in "Prometheus" - losing money when leaving home (time limit is half a month), so I left all valuable things at home. He wanted to see what the system would do to him. , As a result, I went downstairs and said a few words to Brother Liu, then touched my trouser pocket and found that the key was gone.
Does this mean that if you don’t have any money on you, you will throw away your personal belongings? After all, if you lose your key, you need to get a replacement, which is equivalent to losing money in disguise.
Half a minute later, Lin Yue returned upstairs.
Tan Xiaoguang had a strange expression on his face: "Is it two minutes? I went downstairs and came back? Where is your key? Why do you want me to open the door?"
"I lost it yesterday."
"lost?"
Lin Yue did not argue with him on this matter: "Do you have any cash on you?"
"Just wait." Tan Xiaoguang stuffed half of the pancake into his mouth, patted the powder on his hands, and turned around and went into his room. When he came out, he had a stack of bills in his hand, including odd and round ones, almost more than 300.
"enough?"
Lin Yue walked over, took out a one-yuan note, faced Tan Xiaoguang's puzzled gaze, picked up the sports bracelet that had been placed in the coffee table drawer for a long time, opened the door, and walked down the stairs.
Asking for cash with a solemn look on his face, and then taking out a one-dollar bill after taking it out?
"..."
Tan Xiaoguang was speechless.
Just like last time, in just one minute, there was a knock on the door. He went over to open the door. Lin Yue walked into the living room and threw the sports bracelet into the drawer.
"What on earth are you playing?"
"Eat." Lin Yue ignored him, sat down on the horse, picked up his bowl and drank two sips of spicy soup, then picked up the pancakes on the plate, broke them into small pieces, and soaked them in the soup.
Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Tan Xiaoguang didn't force it, and sat on the sofa opposite, holding the bowl and drinking soup one mouthful at a time.
"Oh, by the way, do you remember Zhao Nannan and Zheng Fang?"
Lin Yue looked thoughtful.
"It's the Jiang University study room, the two girls sitting in front of us."
"Oh." Lin Yue said clearly: "What's wrong?"
"They asked about you yesterday and wanted to know why you didn't go to study hall for several days in a row."
"What did you say?"
"I said your friend's father passed away and he has been a little busy these past two days."
Lin Yue nodded slightly and suddenly thought about Zhou Lin's affairs. The old man should have been buried.
Tan Xiaoguang asked: "Are you going today?"
"Today? I don't have time today."
"Is something wrong?"
"Yes, I made an appointment with Su Han to see the car."
"watch cars?"
"Um."
"..." Tan Xiaoguang was speechless: "That's right, then you don't have to borrow Wang Heng's car every time."
Half an hour later, Tan Xiaoguang left with the review materials. Lin Yue cleaned the dishes, went back to his room and took a nap. He ordered a takeaway for lunch, took a shower when he was done, and took two pieces from under the coffee table. Money leaves the house.
Speaking of which, there is a big loophole in the system's setting of losing money when you go out.
After several attempts, he determined one thing. Every time he went out, he would lose money. When he had cash, he would lose cash. When he did not have cash, he would lose personal belongings. No matter how much cash he took with him, he would lose it all. .
So, as long as you bring some cash with you every time you go out, you don’t have to worry about losing money.
Of course, if you were in an era before mobile payment, or if you lived abroad, such a punishment would be very painful.
…
after an hour.
Outside the Automobile City on Mingxia Road.
Lin Yue stood on the roadside waiting for Su Han with a cup of hot coffee. It was already a bit cold and humid in Jianghai City at the end of autumn. The men and women walking on the road put on sweaters and windbreakers, and those riding electric bikes covered themselves up. Strictly true.
When he received a message from Su Han asking him where the entrance was, a BMW 530LI slowly stopped in front of him, and the cab window fell down, revealing two familiar faces.
It's Liu Zihao and Zhang Qian.
"Lin... Yue!" Liu Zihao pointed at him and said, "Wang Heng's buddy."
"Yes." Lin Yue glanced at Zhang Qian, who was sitting in the passenger seat and said.
"Why are you standing here? It's freezing cold."
"Oh, I'm waiting for someone else. I'm afraid she'll go to the wrong place, so I'll just come out and act as a road sign."
"That's it." Liu Zihao said, "Then just wait. When you have time, invite Wang Heng to have a drink with you."
Lin Yue nodded and said, "No problem."
"Let's go." Liu Zihao waved to him, raised his feet slightly, stepped on the accelerator and accelerated away.
Lin Yue looked back at the butt of the car and said in his heart that you should really treat me to a drink, because I will help you save a lot of money today.
He is not a nosy person, but Zhang Qian, a green tea bitch who only eats grass from the side, has no clear ideas. Besides, he originally planned to buy a car for transportation. After all, it is too inconvenient to borrow Wang Heng's car to drive. .
…
"Hey, you think it's a coincidence that you can meet an acquaintance in such a remote place."
In the BMW, Liu Zihao was driving to the parking lot while talking about what had just happened: "I don't think this Lin Yue looks like a bad person based on his temperament and conversation."
Zhang Qian said: "If he doesn't do this, can he get involved with Wang Heng? There were several times when Wang Heng came downstairs to drink like crazy with him. He either smelled of perfume or had lipstick marks on his neck. It’s really annoying. As you know, I first lived in my parents’ old house, which was a unit-funded house. In order not to cause trouble to them, I had no choice but to rent a house outside and move out.”
Liu Zihao said: "Really...you really can't tell a person's face. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that Wang Heng would do such a thing."
Zhang Qian said: "So, you must be careful when making friends. As the saying goes, the poor plan to get rich and have a good conscience. A person from a small place who went to an unpopular university wants to gain a foothold in a big city like Jianghai City. Is it okay to be scheming and use all available resources? You should know that Wang Heng’s family’s connections can lead to the film and television industry. A walk-on, of course, must do what he likes, so that he can get along better. I heard Wang Heng not only introduced him to a reliable group leader, but also helped him pay for the rent."
"According to what you say, he is really not a good person."
"Just last time at the bar, he came over to propose a toast? Do you know why that was?"
"Why?"
"Expand your social circle in the name of Wang Heng. Maybe it will be useful someday. If you are a migrant worker who comes to Jianghai City to make a living, do you think he will pay attention to you? Maybe he won't even look at you. Without looking at it.”
"It means I can't afford it early if there is no profit."
"Sometimes I think, the saying that good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil is somewhat effective. He has done so many stupid things, but in the end he is not a subpar extravaganza? He doesn't want to improve his acting skills. Those who play false will only end up harming others and themselves.”
"you're right."
The car was parked in the parking space, Liu Zihao opened the door and got out, taking her towards the Cadillac 4S store opposite.
Zhang Qian caught up with him and took his arm: "So you must keep your eyes open and you must not make friends like this."
Liu Zihao patted her hand: "Okay, I listen to you. If I meet him again in the future, I will pretend I didn't see him."
"That's right. Talking to that kind of person is a waste of my words."
The two of them walked into the 4S store hand in hand, and were greeted by a female salesperson in work clothes: "Hello, sir, are you here to look at the car?"
Liu Zihao nodded.
The saleswoman glanced at Zhang Qian and asked tentatively: "I would like to ask, is it for my girlfriend?"
Liu Zihao glanced at Zhang Qian: "Yes, I bought it for my girlfriend."
"I wonder if you have learned about our brand before coming here and if you have any models in mind."
"The new CT4 looks good and the price is reasonable."
"Okay, sir." The female salesperson waved to a car diagonally opposite: "Look at this maple leaf red car, I think it especially matches your girlfriend's temperament."
Liu Zihao nodded and glanced at Zhang Qian, wanting her to get in the car and take a look at the interior.
How did she know that she whispered "Why is he here?" Then she followed Zhang Qian's gaze and looked at the door.
