Chapter 1

"Mr. Jiang Qi, there's a delivery for you!"

"Here we go." Beiru, who was used to receiving parcels, ran out of the store quickly. "How many are there this time?"

"That's a lot." The delivery guy counted, "There are three boxes, seven sacks, and there are a few more sacks at the delivery point that my car can't fit in. I'll deliver them tonight."

Beru:?

sack?

Bei Ru, who had never seen the grand occasion when Jiang Qi received the exclusive game boxes, didn't quite understand what he said. She stepped forward and took the three heavy boxes. Just as she was about to go back to the store, she saw the courier boy unloading the boxes one sack at a time from the delivery truck.

Based on her years of work experience, Beiru judged that these sacks should be used to hold fertilizer bags.

"Luckily it arrived today, otherwise it would be a headache to leave so many things at the courier point when the Double Eleven sales surge tomorrow." The courier boy sighed, moved all the sacks to the store door, dusted himself off, and said, "Let's go."

"Okay, bye." Beiru said to the delivery boy.

November 11th was a Monday. Liu Lan had no classes all day and was sitting on the sofa reading a book with a look of despair on his face. Several part-time workers had missed classes. Cai Min was reading a book, Old John and Wang Erya were upstairs, and Huang Fugui had gone to the supermarket to grab discounted goods on Double Eleven.

Business is not as good as before, so priority is given to Cai Min and Bei Ru, the two full-time employees. The others don’t mind anyway, as long as they know that the work meals are provided normally.

"Has the book that Jiang Qi bought at the exhibition arrived?" Seeing that Bei Ru had been standing at the door and had not come in, Liu Lan put the half-read script on the sofa and walked out to ask.

As soon as I went out, I saw a familiar row of sacks.

What a familiar feeling.

"That should be it." Beiru was not sure. "I have this book in my hand, but I don't know what's in these seven sacks. The courier said that there are a few more sacks to be delivered in the evening."

While Bei Ru was talking, Liu Lan had already started dragging the sack into the store. The sack was quite heavy, and Liu Lan's expression was distorted as she tried her best to drag it.

"This is an exclusive copy produced by the card game studio." Liu Lan said, "Jiang Qi really likes their copy. He bought it as soon as it came out. It was a no-brainer."

"The quality of this studio's scripts varies greatly. 'Horror Doll House' and 'MasterChef Contest' are very good, and 'Mask Club' is also OK. 'Time Cinema' is just average, and 'Eat Your Heart' is an even worse script, which has not been opened since the internal beta." Liu Lan complained.

"But Jiang Qi used to buy books one by one, why did he buy so many this time?"

"Maybe it's because of the Double 11 promotion." Beiru accidentally revealed the truth, "I feel that the discounts on Double 11 this year are quite big. I bought a lot of things during the pre-sale period, and I couldn't help but buy a lot more last night."

"Me too." Liu Lan began to drag the second sack. "Last month, all my wages were used to boost GDP."

Beiru also started to help drag the sacks. Some of the sacks were light and some were heavy. It wasn't a long distance to drag them from the door to the store, so two people were enough. So they didn't go upstairs to ask for help. They finished dragging the sacks in that time.

After dragging all the sacks into the store, Liu Lan and Bei Ru began to open the boxes skillfully.

"Toy Story? This name is very crazy. Isn't it afraid that Dick Baby will sue it for plagiarism?" The first book Liu Lan opened was Toy Story.

This book doesn't have any supernatural qualities at all from the box; it looks more like an advertisement for a toy manufacturer.

The box is filled with all kinds of toys. There is no room for the name to be printed on the toys. The colorful colors look very festive.

"My book is called 'Kill the Script-Killing Shop Owner'." Beiru said in amazement, "Nowadays, the names of publishers are so interesting."

The cover of the book "Kill the Script Killing Shop Owner" is two extremes compared to "Toy Story". The cover of the former is in dark tones, and the picture is very simple, with a round table and 8 people sitting around it. Each person is in shadow and only the outline can be seen.

Just as the two were about to open the third box, Jiang Qi came back.

As soon as Jiang Qi entered the store, he saw the sack placed against the wall, and his eyes lit up: "Has the new book I bought arrived?"

Liu Lan and Bei Ru nodded in unison.

Jiang Qi quickly took a pair of scissors to open the sack.

"What was said at the street meeting today?" Liu Lan asked curiously.

"Nothing, it's just that there seems to be a spiritual civilization campaign or something recently, and they want us merchants to pay attention to the hygiene in front of our shops. By then, a few more trash cans will be added to the alley. Just be careful not to leave the trash in front of the store during the day." Jiang Qi said as he opened the first sack.

Bei Ru and Liu Lan both came over to watch.

The sack is full of toys.

There are all kinds of them, including rag dolls that look like hand-sewn, yellow tractors that are about 30 to 40 centimeters tall, cool-looking cowboy dolls, fairy-shaped dolls that Lili will definitely shout that she wants one, glowing electric magic wands that look quite exquisite, and small balls that children like to play with.

A sack was filled with all kinds of toys.

Jiang Qi opened the second sack, which also contained exquisite toys.

The same goes for the third and fourth sacks.

The contents of the fifth and sixth sacks were slightly different. They also contained toys, and they were even the same toys as the previous ones, but they were smaller in scale, more worn out in appearance, cruder in workmanship, and even missing some limbs.

The miniature hand-sewn rag doll was dirty and looked like it had just been picked up from a trash can.

The yellow tractor, which is only 10 centimeters tall, looks as if it has been in a serious car accident.

The no longer beautiful and delicate fairy doll is missing an arm.

The gray electric magic wand had no way of glowing.

The little ball was the worst, it was deflated and black like a piece of trash that had sneaked in. Jiang Qi had to compare it with the toys in the first three sacks and use the process of elimination to determine that this trash-like thing was a deflated little ball.

The props in these six sacks are obviously from Toy Story, although Jiang Qi is disappointed that there is no Buzz Lightyear. There is no Buzz Lightyear in the props, and the possibility of Buzz Lightyear being pulled out of the script is even lower, but it seems that this script will be very interesting to look at these props.

It shouldn't be a huge bad book like "Eat Your Heart".

Jiang Qi opened the last sack and found several sets of clothes inside. These clothes were either costumes, cheongsams, long gowns or suits, which should be props for "Red Tears".

This is a modern book, and it is most likely a horror book set in the Republic of China.

After sorting out the props in the sack, Jiang Qi went upstairs and asked Old John and Wang Erya to help move the props into the utility room.

Because "Eat Your Heart" was directly shelved by Jiang Qi, the pile of jars that came with it and did not conform to contemporary aesthetics were moved by Jiang Qi to the storage room and cabinets of the braised food shop.

Last month, the store was doing a major cleaning. When we were decluttering, everyone cleared out a batch of unused props from the utility room and threw them away. As a result, there was plenty of space in the utility room to accommodate these new props.

"I'm going upstairs to read a book and take a nap. If you have any questions, just send me a message. I'll lock the door." Jiang Qi went upstairs holding "Toy Story".

To be honest, the box of this book is heavy and thick. The last time Jiang Qi saw such a thick box was when he was watching "MasterChef".

There are 30 character books and a super thick host manual in "MasterChef Contest", so it's hard to imagine that this box is not thick.

Jiang Qi went upstairs, locked the door, and opened the box.

There are 27 character books and host manuals in it, no wonder it is so thick.

But...how come this book has 27 character books?

This is a 7-person game, and 27÷7 is not divisible.

These 27 character books are printed with 27 kinds of toys respectively, and the name of each character book is very random.

What are Xiaohong, Dahei, Dahuang, Huahua, Papa, Guagua...

Neither of them are serious names.

For the first time, Jiang Qi did not choose the book that was at the top, but instead selected a character book named Dahuang with a toy dog printed on it from among the 27 character books.

He was very impressed by this toy dog when he first opened the sack. The shape was a normal toy dog, yellow, with long ears, a black nose, big eyes, and it was super long, a full meter long, so a smaller child could lie on it without any problem.

When Jiang Qi saw this toy dog, his first reaction was, I wish my parents had bought me one of the same model when I was a kid.

If you can't draw Buzz Lightyear, it's not a loss to draw a long toy dog.

With this thought in mind, Jiang Qi opened the script.

'You stand in front of a mirror, having lost all your memories, and with only a giant, rather funny-looking toy dog beside you.'

A white light flashed, and Jiang Qi entered his memory.
