Chapter 107: Revisiting the Undercover Home Visit
When Ye Xuan arrived at the company early that morning, he felt the joyous atmosphere.
"What's going on?" He looked at the smiles on everyone's faces, "It's not New Year's Day yet, right?"
Xiao Qian didn't answer, but just smiled and grabbed a handful of candy and gave it to him.
"New Year's candy?" Ye Xuan began to wonder whether there was a custom here to celebrate the New Year three months in advance.
It’s strange. He didn’t see such a custom when he was studying in college here.
Is there any other meaning?
"Xi..." He tentatively uttered a syllable slowly, and the other party's expression seemed to encourage him to continue, "Wedding candy?! Xiao Qian, you are getting married?!"
It's too sudden. How much should I give him as a gift? Xiao Qian has a good relationship with him, so he should at least give him a little more than what he gets from ordinary colleagues...
"Of course not!" Xiao Qian interrupted Ye Xuan's thoughts, "It's a happy event, there is a happy event! I bought the candy to celebrate."
She doesn't even have a partner right now, so why is she talking about getting married?
happy event?
Ye Xuan thought about it and wondered, apart from his dear colleague's marriage, what other happy event could be worth the whole company's celebration?
He asked more tentatively in a low voice: "Is our company listed?"
If this were true, it would be worth a banquet.
Unexpectedly, his rather bold guess was not directly refuted by Xiao Qian: "It's just around the corner."
Xiao Qian had a serious look on his face, and his expression didn't seem fake.
"Oh?" Ye Xuan became more curious when he heard this, but before he could try to get the other person to tell him more, Xiao Qian just told him everything at once.
"This happy event is all thanks to you. Your last magazine interview brought a lot of popularity to Dreamgame. We also qualified to be selected as the most influential game of the year. I heard that even the big boss was very happy."
Ye Xuan knew that the magazine was very powerful, but he didn't expect it to be related to the award.
Although he doesn't play games, he has heard of the well-known award. Every year when the award results are announced, they can be seen everywhere. A previously unknown small game can be all over his friend's circle.
He felt very happy when he thought that the game company he worked for could participate in the election and that he was the one who made it happen.
Ah, this is the value created by his work. It makes me more motivated to go to work!
After thanking Xiao Qian for the candy, he went to the cafeteria. To celebrate, he insisted on having a luxurious breakfast.
The kind that requires you to pay for your meals out of your own pocket even if the meal allowance exceeds the limit!
While Ye Xuan was eating and drinking so much that he even forgot to punch in, Sister Lin and the interviewer were busy and happy.
Once the magazine was released, the game "Dream Travel" and its real-life NPCs became known to many people who had not originally paid attention to holographic games, and sparked countless discussions.
Many game manufacturers who were interested in the game also called Youmeng, hoping to discuss the possibility of cooperation.
There is no way. The current game market is already facing saturation. If there is no innovation, even large companies with a solid foundation will be helpless.
Games themselves are something that develops through constant innovation. They may not have been optimistic about today's holographic technology before, but the company Youmeng has shown them more possibilities for the future of holographic online games. This is indeed a good time for transformation.
Many of the game manufacturers that sent emails or called were companies that Youmeng could not afford before, but now they expressed their intention to cooperate with them in a humble manner, which made the interviewers feel very happy.
He knew that one day, the game company he worked for would become a star in the industry; one day, the games he produced would be highly regarded by everyone.
Sister Lin's excitement was different from his, and she was more like the joy of successfully chasing a star.
Oh my god! This game was her favorite during her school days!
This game brought a new concept into online games at the time. It was a hot topic that all students in the school talked about and it was a memory of her youth.
Cooperation? Of course - it's something to consider carefully.
Sister Lin is not an emotional person when it comes to work, and she did not accept the interview with "Travel·Play" to fulfill her dream, but accepted it because she really thought it would be beneficial to her dreams.
Although this company's games were all the rage when she was in school, that era has long passed. Nowadays, games are updated very quickly. Even the more niche holographic gaming cabins have gone through several generations in just a few years, not to mention the games themselves.
The company's current development is not optimistic. It is unclear whether it is due to management's wrong decision or something else. The newly released games basically do not fit the current hot topics, and the game reviews are mixed. The cooperation aspect really needs to be considered.
But no matter what, this situation was an unexpected result for her.
…
When Ye Xuan appeared in the medical institution again, Al and Xiaomi had already left.
According to the plot review, Al was taken away by Xiaomi after much persuasion. The latter said that Xiao Ou would not come and there was no point in waiting.
That's not right.
Ye Xuan looked at this paragraph and frowned.
Didn’t Xiaomi come for Xiaoou? Then how did he know that Xiaoou, who was currently “out of touch”, would not come?
If it was just that I couldn't contact the other party, I wouldn't be able to say so confidently that "the other party won't come, there's no point waiting", and I would still insist on persuading Al, who was also waiting for Xiao Ou, to leave.
Tsk, with these complicated relationships between characters, his thoughts are becoming more and more confused.
Well, let's make a hypothesis: Under what circumstances can we be sure that a person suspected of being kidnapped will not appear at the "arranged" place? The answer is simple. If the person is kidnapped by him, he is either the mastermind or an accomplice.
If this is true, then his students really don't have a very good eye for people.
No wonder she was so desperate that she sought help from someone with no emotional experience, to be her "life mentor" to solve her love problems.
Although he didn’t really want to get involved in this mess… but who asked Xiao Ou, who called him “teacher”, to be in the center of the vortex? Since he has been called that for so long, he has to live up to this title.
Well, it was very clear in the video call that Xiao Ou was dragged out of his room by a "mysterious hand", so a home visit had to be done.
But this student's home was not something he could enter easily with his status, so he had to find another way.
After all, both parents seemed to dislike him very much.
However, Ye Xuan was not panicked. This was in the game, and as a real NPC, he had an entire mall where he could freely use props. His equipment was more complete than that of a professional agent. Was he still afraid that he could not enter Xiao Ou's house?
But when he got not far from Li Xiaoou's house, he remembered that the security in wealthy areas like this one was definitely very strict. Ordinary thieves should not be able to get in, and it was not easy to perform wall-climbing tricks in broad daylight.
But it has been almost a day since Xiao Ou lost contact, and the other party is likely not at home. If he goes too late, there is a risk that even the clues will be cleared away. He has no time to wait.
Then just force your way in. That’s how he got into the hospital. Without the acupuncture needles, he still has…
He took out the bottle of spray from the warehouse - this might come in handy.
Ye Xuan first put on an invisibility cloak, sneaked in and stood very close to the outermost security guard, observing secretly.
Why didn't he just walk in wearing his invisibility cloak? Thermal surveillance is widely used these days, and even if you can't see it with your eyes, you can't fool the machine, so it's not easy to get away with it.
He paid close attention to the security guard's neck - there was no barrier patch or necklace, but it was not completely smooth, so he was probably an Alpha.
The presence of an Alpha basically means that the entire security team is made up of As. Occupations like this that require staying in the same place for a long time and cooperating with colleagues will mostly employ people of the same second gender for ease of management.
He has learned a lot of "common sense" on the Internet in this scene. It is too difficult to be a real NPC, and he has to learn it by himself.
After shaking the spray evenly, he extended his hand from the invisibility cloak and unexpectedly sprayed the security guard in the face, catching him off guard and succeeding.
See, this isn't that difficult.
"What is that?!" The security guard's roar quickly attracted the attention of his colleagues, and Ye Xing was able to enter the room during the chaos.
Slip away, slip away. He didn't plan to put all the gatekeepers there like he did in the Chinese medicine copy at the beginning. The hospital would basically only guard against him, but there are still many innocent residents in the community. It would not be good to affect their personal and property safety, so the security guards had to be kept.
And in a sense, the pheromone disorder spray is not much different from the anti-wolf spray? It's just a bit of reverse operation. It's not difficult to remove the effect of the drug. It's a minor injury that the hospital won't vacate a bed for, and it won't leave any sequelae.
After successfully sneaking into the villa area, Ye Xuan found a hidden location and kept an eye on the people passing by.
According to Xiao Ou, he and Xiaomi are neighbors across the street, so to go to Xiao Ou's home, one might have to pass through Xiaomi's line of sight - at least within the line of sight of his family's surveillance cameras.
In his opinion, the villas here are all the same, and Xiao Ou's home is really not very recognizable. He hasn't been here for so long that he has forgotten what the villa looks like. He needs someone to show him the way.
So after he followed three aunties who were buying groceries, five uncles who were walking their dogs, and seven drivers who had just delivered their employers' goods, he finally arrived in front of the villa that seemed a little familiar to him.
He was wearing an invisibility cloak and walking on the cleanly swept stone steps, but the little Omega who had given him the flower was gone.
Tsk, there's an inexplicable feeling of the absurdity of transforming into a brave man to rescue the little prince who was kidnapped by a dragon. It's too outrageous.
Ye Xuan was certainly not stupid enough to just ring the doorbell like Xiao Ou did last time. Moreover, running away after ringing the doorbell sounded too much like a child's prank, which was not conducive to harmonious coexistence among neighbors.
He put his eyes close to the cat's eye and looked away in less than half a second.
Well, let's take a quick look first. Cat's eyes seem scary both from the outside looking in and from the inside looking out.
He recalled several horror stories about cat's eyes that he had heard at dormitory chats in the school dormitory, and scared himself.
Let’s open up some perspective, it’s not a big deal.
Effortless, worry-free and safe.
