Lin Leyou had been trapped by his family his entire life. Right after graduating from high school, he was forced to start working to support them, all because he had just gained a younger brother. ...
Chapter 672 [(*^▽^*)]
"If you don't want it, I'll go for it! This one looks like she likes men, and I think I'm not bad looking either."
Lin Leyou patted his shoulder, "Don't get any ideas about him. He's after me, it has nothing to do with you. After get off work, I'll spend some time with him and make some money. Maybe I can earn more in five days than I could ever spend in a lifetime."
My colleague chuckled, "I knew you were here for these rich people! That's exactly how it should be! How can you turn down money!"
Lin Leyou quickly changed the subject and then told Xue Rui about it. Xue Rui gradually felt relieved. He was on the balcony and could see Lin Leyou chatting with his colleagues on the beach.
As for the fake Xue Rui who went to find Lin Leyou earlier, he went to look for him as soon as he noticed something was wrong, but he couldn't find a trace of him. He was really well hidden.
He took a deep breath. The bad news was that this person knew him, Xue Rui, and also knew Lin Leyou, and even recognized them. The good news was that this person was still unsure of their true relationship.
Of course, it's also possible that he knew Xue Rui but not Lin Leyou, and simply saw that Lin Leyou was wearing the same pair of rings as him, so he thought he'd give it a try.
Of course, the result was that nothing was found.
Now he just had to wait for Lin Leyou to get off work. After all, in the other person's eyes, there was absolutely no relationship between him and Lin Leyou, so he would never take the initiative to look for Lin Leyou.
So he could only wait until Lin Leyou got off work and gave him the opportunity to come to him, so that the two of them could naturally get together in this instance.
Actually, there's no need to wait until the end of the workday, but based on Lin Leyou's previous reaction, if he showed a different attitude when he saw the real Xue Rui after he arrived, even though it was during working hours, it would raise suspicions.
After thinking it over, Xue Ruisi decided to meet Lin Leyou at the buffet restaurant on the first floor after he got off work, and then put on a show for someone.
Lin Leyou currently possesses the Ink Jade Ring, the Golden Sun, and the Soul-Splitting Dagger he has chosen. He lacks any surveillance or tracking devices, making it impossible for him to track down the person who impersonated Xue Rui.
So he doesn't know where this person went, what they are doing now, whether they are being watched, or whether they have already left, changed their identity, and gone off to cause trouble elsewhere.
"Wow, so many people have come. It seems they all really like this island. They're all rich. I wish one of them would take a liking to me. Hey, do you think a beautiful rich woman might accidentally choke on water at the beach, and then develop feelings for me after I save her?"
What else could Lin Leyou say in response to these words?
"I wish you success. If such a situation arises, I will give you priority."
He patted Lin Leyou on the shoulder with a smile, "Brother, you're pretty savvy! If it really works out, I'll definitely give you a big red envelope!"
Lin Leyou didn't take these words to heart. "It's alright. Keep a close eye on things. If anything happens, rush out immediately. Make sure your expression is very serious and solemn. With your expression right now, anyone can tell you have ill intentions."
He immediately suppressed the smug smile on his face. "You're right. I got a little carried away just now. I need to be more serious. A lot of women like this kind."
He then patted his arms and stomach, which showed very beautiful muscle lines, especially his eight-pack abs. He had trained for them for a long time and worked really hard!
Now it's finally time for the inspection, hehe!
From 8 a.m. until noon, Lin Leyou finally got to eat. He had arranged to have dinner with Xue Rui, so he wouldn't be eating at the hotel for lunch. His good colleague planned to go to the restaurant and bring him the food.
"Don't worry, brother. I'll go to the restaurant to check things out. You stay here and keep an eye on things. I'll definitely bring you lots of good food and, while I'm at it, find that guy who flirted with you before."
After saying that, he quickly slipped away, and Lin Leyou didn't even have a chance to speak. But he didn't care, because four hours had passed and he hadn't heard any screams.
This means that either no one has died, or someone has died but the body is well hidden and has not yet been discovered, and it is unknown whether the system will announce how many people are still alive.
Although it was noon, there were still some people playing on the beach, and some were even eating and drinking there, having a very comfortable time.
And just as he thought, all the tourists were players. Players who could come to this level of difficulty were all very strong and would not be so weak as to not be able to swim or get into trouble here.
As players, even if you can't swim at first, you will eventually force yourself to learn to swim or even hold your breath underwater, because no one can guarantee that they won't encounter dungeons that require these skills in the future.
Now that I've learned it, although it's a bit difficult, and I'll sweat and cry, it can increase my chances of survival in dungeons, and even help me clear them, earn points, and survive.
Lin Leyou sat there waiting for about half an hour before seeing her colleague arrive late. The colleague was carrying a lunchbox bigger than her head and slowly walked over from a distance, with a not-so-good expression on her face.
He walked over to Lin Leyou, sullenly placing the lunchbox on the small table beside him, "Sigh..."
Lin Leyou opened the box and found it filled with meat, vegetables, and seafood—a truly sumptuous meal. While eating, she asked, "What happened? You look so listless. Did the guests bully you?"
My colleague replied, "No, that's not it. The guests are all very polite. I was just glancing at them a few times. How could they possibly know what I'm thinking? I just ran into our team leader."
"When he saw me getting food, he started to mock me, saying that the two of us were the most relaxed here, sitting and resting all morning and still getting such a good meal, and then he went on and ...
Lin Leyou wasn't angry; she continued eating her lunchbox. "Really? If he had objections, why did he assign the work here to us in the first place? He could have done it himself."
"Hey! That's what I thought too. But I think he probably felt that as the team leader, if he volunteered to be assigned to the easiest position, others would look at him with prejudice. So he wanted to assign it to someone else and then have them offer to switch with him."
Lin Leyou understood the thoughts of these lower-class people all too well. In his previous life, he was one of them, and he would overthink even the smallest things.
Do you want to change it?
He paused for a moment, "Aren't you worried at all? If we don't change places, we won't find such a good place to hook up with a rich woman when he arranges for us to go somewhere else tomorrow."
Lin Leyou: "So if we offer to switch now, he'll arrange for us to go to the second easiest place later?"
The colleague thought for a moment, "If it were in the morning, it would be fine, but now..."
Just now at the buffet, he was so angry that he made a sarcastic remark that looking at beautiful women for too long must be very tiring and he needs to eat more.
That one sentence really angered the other party, so... even if they wanted to change jobs voluntarily, he probably wouldn't accept it, or even if he did accept it, he wouldn't give them good positions.
"Forget it, it's come to this anyway."
Lin Leyou said, "What are you worried about? How bad can the worst job be? Looking at all these tourists here, none of them have any problems. They're all very safe. There are so many people here that we might not even need to rescue anyone. If we patrol other places, we'll probably have more opportunities."
His colleague's mood improved considerably after hearing this. "You're right! Let's eat!"
Lin Leyou continued eating, and from 12 o'clock to 4 pm, there was still nothing for them to do. Because of their work, they could only stay near the beach and could not go anywhere else.
If possible, Lin Leyou would love to travel to other parts of the island and see the sights. It would be even better if he were on a mobile post, so he could go anywhere at any time.
It was not yet dinner time at four o'clock in the afternoon, but when it was time for them to gather and change shifts, two colleagues had already come to take over their shift when they left.
The two of them went to meet up at the place where they had previously gathered, and there he saw the captain again.
The captain was very tall, but his eyes looked unhappy. Although his face looked somewhat masculine, it gave people a sharp and mean feeling.
Lin Leyou didn't look at it much. Anyway, the other party didn't hate him. Even if he was the one being targeted, it didn't matter. As long as they didn't attack him, everything would be fine.
After the captain announced the disbandment, Lin Leyou clearly saw him look at his colleagues with strange eyes, but... they probably wouldn't dare to make a move, right?
Lin Leyou first followed his colleagues back to their room on the second floor of the hotel. Fortunately, the hotel was big enough and had enough rooms, so staff members like them could each have their own room.
Upon returning to what was theoretically his own room, the first thing he did, just like Xue Rui, was to remove the covers from every corner of the room, even the drains, and peer inside.
After confirming that there was nothing that shouldn't be there, he breathed a sigh of relief, then looked around the room, changed his clothes, took a shower, found some clothes in the closet, and changed into a handsome young man.
He checked the time and found it was 4:30. Having dinner at this time wasn't out of the question, but he decided to contact Xue Rui first.
"Where are you now?"
Xue Rui was wandering around outside. He didn't find any corpses there either. In fact, he encountered many other players exploring the island, trying to find something.
