[Chapter 13, Leaving Persons]

“Xiao Xie, it's 6: 00. Let's have dinner first.” Brother Chen walked over and patted Xie Mingzhe's shoulder. After hearing about it, Xie Mingzhe decisively removed his helmet and followed Brother Chen to the living room. Several others in the substitute studio also took off their helmets and Xie Mingzhe first saw their true faces.

Chi Qing girl is very beautiful, tall and thin, her height is more than 1 meter 75, she has short hair with smooth Qi ears, she has no expression on a white face, makes people feel a little cold, seems difficult to get along with.

Pang Yu is a lovely big fat man, about the same height as Chi Qing. But Chi Qing is the elongated “vertical growth”, Pang Yu is the round rolling “horizontal development”, standing beside Chi Qing, fat and thin contrast very bright.

Kim Leap's face and body are all on the average line, putting in the passers-by armor that can't be found in the crowd, the temperament looks quite Sven, wearing silver-sided glasses.

Xie Mingzhe walked over and greeted them voluntarily: "Hello everyone. ”

Seeing the handsome guy in front of him, Pang Yu stared incredibly wide: “Are you the one in the game... Uncle Fat? ”

Xie Mingzhe nodded: "Well, I took a random name in the game. ”

Pang Yu's face was about to collapse: “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh You're so tall and skinny, you call yourself Uncle Fatty. Isn't that exciting? ”

“Fatty, calm down.” Jin Leap pushed the glasses on the nose beam and said, "Don't say change your shape in the game, it's common to change your gender. ”

“…” Pang Yu is irrefutable.

Chi Qing's expression was very calm, he didn't like to talk, only nodded to Xie Mingzhe as a greeting.

“'Let's go,' said Chen. The studio is here today, I'm hosting a big meal outside! ”

It's rare to have guests, Xie Mingzhe really wants to go. But when the doctor left the hospital, he was advised that his gastrointestinal function had not been restored and could not be careless. Although he would love to eat chicken legs, roasted duck, ribs, beef... unfortunately his body only allowed him to drink porridge.

Xie Mingzhe swallowed his saliva and said: "Brother Chen, don't bother, just buy me two bowls of porridge. ”

Everyone: “???? ”

Where do you buy porridge?

To the strange eyes of the last group, Xie Mingzhe hastily explained: “Don't get me wrong, I was discharged from the hospital shortly, my stomach was not good, the doctor said I could only eat liquid food within three days, and I couldn't digest anything else. ”

Chen looked at him with confusion: "Have you ever been in the hospital before? ”

“Well, just got out of the hospital today. ”

“Just got out of the hospital, came to work, didn't raise him at home for a few days? Your family doesn't care about you? ”

“I'm a grown man and my family doesn't care about me.” Xie Mingzhe doesn't want people to know he's an orphan, let alone see the look of sympathy.

The three of them looked at each other in a glance and looked at each other in disdain.

Running to work just after being discharged from the hospital is also spellworthy, the conditions of the juvenile's family must be bad.

“Alas, you're not easy either.” Brother Chen sighed and cared: “You just got out of the hospital to work. Can you eat well? ”

“It's all right, I've recovered. Besides, playing games doesn't take much energy.” Xie Mingzhe smiled and shifted the subject, “By the way, Brother Chen, my level in the game is 15, I'll go to level 35 tonight and play with you. ”

“Okay.” Chen turned to Qing Ji and said, “Since Xiao Xie can't have a big meal, let's just eat some. Qing, please go cook a pot of porridge. After two days Xie Xie's body is ready, I'll treat you to a hostess. ”

“Mmm.” Pool Green turned to cook the porridge in the kitchen.

“Thank you very much for coming. I'll take you to your luggage.” Brother Chen took Xie Mingzhe upstairs.

Xie Mingzhe looked at the studio environment by the way.

The house is a two-story small duplex structure on the top floor of the residential building with helmets, rotating chairs in the lobby and side rooms on the ground floor, in addition to the kitchen, dining room and toilet; the second floor is a lounge with four rooms, of which the master bedroom has only one queen bed and the other three have two single beds lined up side by side.

“We had a girl who lived with Chi Qing in our studio. She went to get married a while ago and took a month off. I only hired someone to replace her. Many copies of the game had to come in by five people.” Brother Chen lit a cigarette and said while smoking, "At present, Chi Qing lives alone. I'll jump in with Kim. You'll live with Fatty in the future. Is that okay? ”

“No problem!" Xie Mingzhe followed Brother Chen to put the courtesy in the bedroom.

I thought the leveling studio was one of those little black painted studios, and the environment was much better than he thought. The lobby used for games on the ground floor was spacious and bright, and the second floor was clean, and you could see the lush gardens downstairs through the balcony window.

Xie Mingzhe pushed the floor window into the balcony, he found the balcony huge area, the most comfortable lounge chair, furry white carpet under the lounge chair, next to the carpet is a flower rack, some succulent plants on the flower rack, all this succulent meat is as big as a child's fist, various colors look especially cute. There is a wooden coffee table at the front of the flower stand with a set of tea utensils and four small cups of pure white as jade, very sophisticated.

Seeing this scene, Xie Mingzhe could almost imagine a man lying in this comfortable lounger on a summer afternoon, picking up a delicate little cup, slowly tasting tea, occasionally watering succulent plants on the flower stand, and enjoying a pleasant and relaxing life.

The placement on the balcony and the "game proxy” do not fit the profession. Take a closer look at the hangings on the walls, the white window gauze, the warm colored wallpaper… nothing like what a proxy studio should look like.

Xie Mingzhe couldn't help but ask: "Brother Chen, are you renting this house?” He thought, "Is this supposed to be the original host? How can a game agent have this leisurely flower tea sitting on the balcony?

Chen suddenly silenced when he heard about the problem and a little pain flashed in his eyes.

The man was smoking cigarettes and the smoke emitted covered his face. Therefore, Xie Mingzhe did not see the expression on his face. However, the other party's apparent silence made Xie Mingzhe realize that he seemed to have asked the wrong questions and hurried to change his mouth: “I can ask whatever I want. It doesn't matter what I can't say. ”

Brother Chen slowly threw up the cigarette ring, and when Xie Mingzhe thought he would not answer, his low voice rang in his ear: “This is my brother's house. ”

Xie Mingzhe looked back and saw a man walking by the window, closing his eyes to the garden in the distance, whispering: “Everyone who comes to the studio for the first time wonders, how can a game leveling studio be arranged like this? Actually, this house used to be my brother's place. When he left, the ground floor was transformed into a games hall and the second floor into a dormitory, but the balcony was kept intact. ”

Brother Chen picked up the fine jade cup on the table and played with it in his palm.

That heavy look made Xie Mingzhe wonder how to answer the call for a moment.

Xie Mingtze's impression of Chen is that he is a very depraved young man, he likes to smoke, his hair is messy, his shirt is wrinkled like picking up a little rag from the garbage pile and wearing it on him, he still has a rag on his chin, and he doesn't know how long he hasn't shaved - a typical young internet addict.

However, when talking about his brother, the sad emotion in his face made Xie Mingzhe couldn't help himself.

Contemporary decadent men practicing in games all day long have secrets hidden in their hearts.

His brother didn't die, did he?

Xie Mingzhe dared not ask. He had to change the subject: “Cough, what time do you usually sleep? ”

“Holographic games control players' online time, so we're doing a regular job, sleeping at 12: 00 p.m. and starting at 8: 00 a.m.” Brother Chen dropped the cup and seemed to be relieved of his memory. He knocked out the cigarette butt in the ashtray and turned around to look at Xie Mingzhe, “If I'm not mistaken, you should be a college student? Work during the summer vacation and earn some money, right? ”

“Mm-hmm.” Xie Mingzhe said frankly, "I'm a first-year student at Teito University across the street, starting September 1st. ”

“It's a good school. If you go to school, you will definitely get a good job.” Brother Chen slapped each other on the shoulder with encouragement, "he said,“ If you are free after school, I will pay you hourly. ”It's not easy for a teenager to work alone, and he wants to take care of it.

“Really?” Xie Mingzhe was excited to rub his hands straight.

“Mmm.” With his bright eyes, Brother Chen couldn't help laughing, “I think you're smart, hurry up to level 35 to help me. ”

“Understood!” If he could really work part-time in this studio near the school for a long time, he wouldn't have to worry about his college living expenses for a few years.

“To reassure you, I also reassure you, let's sign a labor contract.” Brother Chen took Xie Mingzhe to the side and took out a contract template, "the contract is a guarantee for each other, you don't have to worry about me arrears in your salary, I also know your details, I don't invite people of unknown origin here. ”

Brother Chen clearly meant to be officially hired. Xie Mingzhe immediately took out his ID card and scanned it into a smart computer and signed his name on the screen. And when he found out that the pay column was 3,000, he said, "I was an intern for the first month, half the salary, right? ”

“Give it all.” Brother Chen also signed his name and said happily, "With your enlightenment, you have learned the game in two days, so go according to the treatment of regular employees. The base salary is 3000, you will receive 10% extra bonus on your own orders, and if the business is good, you will receive a bonus at the end of the month. ”

“Thank you, Chen!” Xie Mingzhe felt like he had won the lottery.

“No thanks.” The man's words were very handsome and the name he signed in the contract was Chen Xiao.

Turns out his full name is Chen Xiao.

Xie Mingzhemer wrote down the name of the boss who helped him.

* * *

By the time he had settled his luggage and followed Chen Xiao downstairs, he had cooked porridge. Green vegetable lean meat porridge looks delicious, besides porridge, she also made two vegetarian dishes, all well digested dishes, obviously considerate Xie Mingzhe just got out of the hospital with bad stomach.

Xie Mingzhe sat in the living room with everyone for a simple dinner.

Pang Woo shouted: “Only green vegetables and rice congee. I can't eat at all. You must know that Fatty's stomach is bigger than yours!” Just look at Chen Xiao, “Boss, I want to take an hour off, can we go out and have another pound of beef? ”

Chen Xuan pounded the meat on his stomach and scolded: “Whatever meat you eat, it's time for you to lose weight. Look at Xiao Xie, she weighs less than half your weight. ”

“…” Pang Yu was stuck in silence and simply abandoned himself: “I am born with the obesity gene and it is useless to lose weight. ”

Jin Yue helped the glasses on the nose beam and laughed back at him: “I see you are lazy. ”

Pang Yulai grabbed Xie Mingzhe's arm: “Xiao Xie, you're so skinny, I'll split some meat for you. ”

“…” Xie Mingzhe couldn't help but laugh.

I didn't expect the studio to get along quite well and not exclude him, but rather take care of him. He has been an orphan for two generations. He has not many friends around him. He watches this group of people humble and intimate with each other. He also has a slight warmth in his heart.

It is probably God of Luck's pleasure to find such a job after rebirth.

All thanks to Chen Xiao, the forgiving boss.

It's just, what happened to Chen Xiao's older brother?

Xie Mingzhe was very confused, and from Chen Xiao's attitude, his brother could be very serious. Maybe he died, or something, but he left anyway. Chen Xiao lived in his brother's house and kept the balcony set by his brother on the second floor. This "miss one person" approach made Xie Mingzhe a little distracted.

Hopefully not the irreversible result of “death”.

Xie Mingzhe retracted his thoughts. At present, the most important thing is to rise to level 35, join the team and help everyone paint materials.

After all, he was an official agent from the moment the contract was signed.
