151 ? The ninth store

151 The ninth store

◎The House of Requests.◎

The DIY House was still a metalworking experience activity in the afternoon. Pei Qi, Liu Jing and Xiao Cai were each responsible for the instruction of an operation classroom.

Ten minutes before the start of the activity, the guests who had registered in the morning arrived in the store one after another.

The three instructors took the registration list and called the names to make sure that the registered guests arrived on time, and led the guests to the operation classroom in order.

After the DIY store became famous, it attracted all kinds of guests.

The guests at the beginning just bought a lot of materials because of the novelty, and most of the materials were consumed during the experience activity.

But a few days later, Lu Yao found that someone was maliciously hoarding materials.

It is not quite accurate to describe it as "malicious". Someone just purposefully gathered materials from the DIY hut, and did not consume all of them in the experience activities. Instead, they secretly took the materials out of the store. The purpose is unknown.

Lu Yao roughly analyzed it and combined with the current situation of Ghost Street, she estimated that someone wanted to use the materials with special properties in the DIY hut to make something.

She could understand their thoughts and even felt that these customers' brains were quite fast.

However, from the perspective of the store, this phenomenon was not conducive to the development of the DIY hut, so Lu Yao issued a new rule the next day - in an experience activity, customers can purchase up to three additional materials.

At the beginning, a group of customers came to make trouble, thinking that the store should not restrict customers from purchasing materials, and advised Lu Yao not to be too rigid in doing business. Since the materials can be sold, why bother whether they are used in the store.

Lu Yao did not quarrel with the customers, but turned around and reduced the number of additional materials that customers can purchase from three to two.

They never thought that the attempt to use numbers and public opinion to suppress the store owner and force him to open up the right to purchase additional materials would backfire. Later, they did not dare to make trouble, and silently labeled the young store owner as "difficult to deal with".

But even so, the business of the DIY hut is getting better and better, and customers continue to come every day.

The volunteer staff is responsible for instructing customers, Chen You and Gan Ying are responsible for preparing materials and cleaning the operation classroom, and Huang Qi is responsible for front desk registration.

The three staff assigned from the street committee receive training with the volunteer staff every night, but Lu Yao has never let them instruct customers.

However, according to the mental state they tested with the ghost bracelet at noon, Chen You is about to return to normal.

Huang Qi's situation is the same as Lu Yao's initial prediction. His consciousness is the deepest. There has been no change in the past few days working in the DIY hut.

The ghost bracelet is used to test the user's mental state. The inspiration for the system comes from the ghost phone system that Lu Yao built in the Eden Sea World when he was running the Furry House. Using the half-body power of the Deep Sea Goddess and the abilities of the God's Messenger Water Drop Seals, the Furry House can use the ghost phone system to judge the mental state of the guests who call to make an appointment, and determine whether they are suitable for recuperation and relaxation at the Furry Shop.

So far, the ghost phone system has judged the mental state of more than 200,000 people, and a large amount of data is stored in the system of the Furry Shop's fishing room.

Lu Yao used the original ghost phone system as a standard, referred to the measurement data, and created the consciousness test system on the ghost bracelet.

The consciousness test system uses the normal value of fifty as the standard line. A test value above fifty is a normal state in which the ghost bracelet can be used. A test value between 30-49 is a yellow state, a value between 10-29 is a blue state, and a value below ten is a black state.

These three states are all cases of lack of autonomous consciousness, and the ghost bracelet cannot be activated and used.

Lu Yao sat at the door of the mobile classroom thinking about things. The doors of the three operating classrooms were closed, and there was a magical soundproof barrier, so the sounds in the operating classrooms would not be transmitted.

After the mobile classroom opened, there were not many customers.

Most people cannot make anything without a tutorial, and customers are more inclined to sign up for experience activities.

Lu Yao is not in a hurry. The mobile classroom will be used sooner or later. She is just thinking that she may have to recruit two new employees recently.

New employees will be recruited from the shopping street, and they must be computer professionals.

Lu Yao subconsciously stopped touching her phone. She tried her best to avoid using electronic products in the DIY hut, but sometimes she couldn't remember.

Pulling her hand back, Lu Yao made a note of the matter in her mind. She would go back to the shopping street in the evening and ask in the employee group. Maybe someone would be willing to recommend her. Also, before officially launching the ghost bracelet, she wanted to do more tests. Maybe someone from the church could...

Suddenly, there were footsteps at the end of the corridor, and Lu Yao looked up.

Huang Qi poked his head out and saw Lu Yao sitting in the corridor. He pointed helplessly at the man walking in front of him and said, "I said the registration was full, but he insisted on coming in." Lu Yao

waved her hand, telling him not to worry about it.

The tall and thin man was wearing a somewhat worn green work suit, with a pair of goggles hanging on his head and a huge black suitcase in his hand.

He saw Lu Yao sitting at the door, and his footsteps became faster, stopping half a meter away from Lu Yao, "My name is K. Are you the owner?"

Lu Yao stood up and nodded, "What's the matter?"

K: "Yes, I want to buy the ghost bracelet produced in your store."

Lu Yao immediately responded, "Are you a friend of Song Wen?"

K: "Yes. I saw the ghost bracelet from him and was very interested in it."

Lu Yao thought about it for a while and agreed.

The first version, 200,000 ghost coins each.

K picked up the suitcase and handed it to Lu Yao: "Two hundred thousand, count it. I want to pick it up now." The

black suitcase was opened, and the golden glitter was dazzling, all of which were golden octopus coins with a face value of one hundred.

One hundred ghost coins are equal to one golden octopus banknote, and there are two hundred thousand in the suitcase.

Golden octopus coins are also applicable to the redemption system of ghost bracelets.

When Lu Yao picked up the suitcase, he couldn't help thinking, how nice it would be if these were soft girl coins.

Ghost Street is a virtual game world. Lu Yao sometimes had a heart attack when she thought about her exchanging various real materials for a bunch of game virtual coins.

Because of this reason, when she decided to limit the purchase of materials, she was also very justified.

After Lu Yao counted the money, he took out a small silver box from his pocket and handed it to K.

K opened it, took a look, and then closed it again. He saw the door number of the mobile classroom and a sign hanging next to the door - Mobile Operation Classroom, 20 Ghost Coins per hour.

K took out a gold octopus coin.

Lu Yao asked him to register at the front desk.

K paid the money at the front desk and walked into the mobile classroom with the ghost bracelet he had just received.

The mobile classroom is full of independent transparent operating tables, and the space is larger than the dedicated operating classroom opposite.

There are thirty independent operating tables in a classroom.

After the guests register at the front desk, the front desk will hand the guests an authority card.

The card has the number of the operating table.

The authority card in K's hand is number six. There are only five guests in front of him. Compared with the opposite side, it is really deserted.

K's eyes swept over the people in the mobile classroom. Everyone stayed quietly in their own operating space with different materials in front of them. Some were making clay, some were making wood carvings, some were making clothes, and some were forging iron.

The style made by the blacksmith was different from the tutorial of the DIY hut. It was a gemstone tassel necklace that looked very complicated.

This person is probably a professional goldsmith in real life.

Suddenly, K raised his eyebrows slightly. He actually met an acquaintance.

The man was also working on the blacksmith. There were two folding spring knives on his side. The style was rough, but the blades were polished to be extremely bright and sharp.

K saw that he was concentrating on sharpening the blades in his hands. He did not disturb him, turned around and walked to the No. 6 operating table.

The door card was placed in the scanning area, and the glass door opened silently.

K walked into the operating table and closed the door. Then he found that the operating table was not only independent, but also had very strict sound insulation equipment.

There was no sign of soundproofing from either the outside or the inside, but the space inside the operating table was silent and no sound could be heard.

He had not heard any sound from other operating tables outside just now.

This place was not bad, very suitable for doing research with peace of mind.

K sat down and took out the ghost bracelet and instruction manual from the box.

He read the instruction manual again and picked up the bracelet to examine it carefully.

The ghost bracelet had a smooth surface and no interfaces. There was only a crooked black ring on the inside, with a golden lotus branch wrapped around the edge, and the word "Yao" was printed inside the ring.

K picked up the bracelet and smashed it hard on the operating table. There was a crisp clanging sound. There were no wounds or even scratches on either the operating table or the bracelet.

Not much can be seen from the surface.

K thought for a moment, put on the bracelet, and a translucent operating panel immediately appeared in front of him.

He had already memorized the contents of the instruction manual.

K completed the activation binding and quickly went through the communication function, storage function and krypton gold function.

Compared to the ghost system, the system panel and functions of the ghost bracelet are indeed more like the player's operating system.

K's sight stopped at the last area on the panel-the wish box.

He reached out and clicked on the wish box, and the shocking red words appeared again, reminding the user that he was performing an extremely dangerous operation.

Such a system was designed to give the ghosts hope, but it was also told to them without any disguise that they might be making a deal with the devil.

K felt that the person who developed the ghost bracelet was even more cruel than the one who ruled this street.

She wanted them to jump into the pit soberly and willingly.

K exhaled and pressed the "OK" option at the bottom right of the red warning message, and a golden contract appeared on the panel.

The two parties to the contract are K's real name and the provider of the Wish Box of the Ghost Bracelet. The important contents of the contract can be roughly summarized into four clauses: First, the holder of the Ghost Bracelet will be unilaterally bound to the provider of the Wish Box; second, after binding, the holder of the bracelet can obtain a battle system that matches his own ability; third, if the holder of the bracelet chooses to unbind, all memories related to the Wish Box and the Battle System will be permanently cleared; fourth, the absolute confidentiality clause, the holder of the bracelet cannot disclose any details of the Wish Box and the Battle System to others, this content is mandatory.

K did not hesitate and pressed his fingerprint at the end of the contract.

The screen shows that the Wish Box is loading, and the waiting time is about five minutes.

Lu Yao has returned to the lounge. She completed the development of the ghost bracelet in the morning. The next stage is still in preparation. The clerks are already familiar with the work content and the store is in normal operation. She plans to take a half-day off and take a leisurely nap.

Just after she covered her legs with the blanket, she suddenly realized that the wish system was bound to a strange consciousness, and she was shocked.

In less than half a day, someone signed the contract.

The name was Ji Linkai.

Lu Yao quickly determined that Ji Linkai was K who had just asked her to buy a bracelet.

To sign a contract with her, the soul must be used as a medium. This is one of the most important skills she learned from the demon.

Ji Linkai is K's real name.

Lu Yao did not have time to continue exploring Ji Linkai's name. She only had five minutes to prepare the wish box.

K sat in front of the operating table, doing nothing, staring at the countdown on the Ghost Bracelet's operating panel.

5, 4, 3, 2 , 1 -

the dark gray operating panel suddenly became festive, with bright red blocks covering the entire panel. Boom - a gift box with a black background and gold edges popped out, with a golden lotus tied to the bow ribbon.

"Congratulations to Ghost Bracelet user Ji Linkai for successfully winning the wish box!"

"Do you want to open the wish box?"

Ji Linkai said silently in his heart: "Yes."

The wish box opened, and several puzzle-like blocks of color scattered on the screen.

After a few seconds, the blocks began to float automatically, and an emotionless mechanical sound rang in Ji Linkai's mind.

"Ji Linkai has activated the wish box numbered YLXT000001!"

"Ji Linkai has obtained the combat system · gun/machine control."

"Ability: Gun/machine control. Current level: 1." "

Ability description: The ability holder can control all guns/machines that appear within three meters with himself as the center. The ability holder can use the power of will to make special guns/machines and will bullets. Will bullets can purify mutants below level three on the ghost street. The purification index of will bullets increases with the level of special guns/machines and ability level."

Ji Linkai looked at the ability description for a long time without moving.

Maybe five minutes passed, or maybe more. He raised his hand and gently rubbed his eyebrows, gradually digesting the information he just saw.

The wish box was not a lie, it really matched him with the most suitable ability.

Before coming to Ghost Street, he was a heavy weapon fan, especially liked to collect various model guns.

Those models were advanced simulation versions. Except that they could not be loaded with real bullets, all kinds of parts were one-to-one restorations of real guns.

At that time, most of his savings were spent on collecting model guns, and he was also familiar with the disassembly and assembly of various guns.

A few months ago, a voice suddenly appeared in Ji Linkai's mind.

The mysterious existence who called himself Tiannao gave him some knowledge about gun manufacturing, and Tiannao said that they needed weapons.

At that time, Tiannao also provided them with materials. They lurked in the streets of the South District, spent two months preparing, and launched that massive god-killing operation.

However, the result was tragic.

Many people disappeared, and finally even the voice of Tiannao disappeared from his mind.

Before Tiannao disappeared, he seemed to murmur, "I failed and can't go back. If... I always feel that I can win", Ji Linkai didn't hear the name clearly.

The magical thing is that after getting the wish box and ability through the ghost bracelet, Ji Linkai suddenly thought of Tiannao, and felt that they were too similar.

Ji Linkai later recalled that period of time countless times, and always felt that Tiannao was not a person, so it couldn't be the person he thought of at this time.

None of this matters, Ji Linkai concentrated his mind, he must test the ability he just got.

Unfortunately, the newly made Desert Eagle was placed at the headquarters. Ji Linkai raised his head and saw a person standing outside the operating table. It was Xing Yong who had just been sharpening the blade at the No. 5 operating table.

Xing Yong and Ji Linkai knew each other in real life. Both of them were fans of weapons. Xing Yong liked to study ancient cold weapons and collect models. He and Ji Linkai met several times at the stalls in the flea market and later became friends.

Unexpectedly, not long after, the two came to Ghost Street together again.

Ji Linkai stood up and opened the door.

Xing Yong stood at the door and did not come in: "When I stood up just now, I thought I recognized the wrong person. After a closer look, it was really you. Why did you come to the North District?"

Ji Linkai and Xing Yong met again soon after they came to Ghost Street, but the two lived in different neighborhoods. Later, Ji Linkai came into contact with Tiannao and was very busy. He and Xing Yong had not seen each other for some time.

After the failure of the God-killing Operation, Ji Linkai was protected by Tiannao and did not get lost.

But he was worried about implicating more people, so he hid in the South District and rarely came out.

Ji Linkai: "This store is very popular recently, even people in the South District are talking about it, I came to take a look."

Xing Yong: "You are not honest. I just saw you playing with a bracelet for a long time, and I didn't see you making anything."

Ji Linkai: "I bought the bracelet from the store owner, I'll study it. By the way, I want to make bullets, I'm not familiar with it since it's my first time here."

Xing Yong looked at Ji Linkai's bracelet curiously, and without asking any more questions, he began to enthusiastically teach him how to use the mobile classroom.

"It's really nice here, come with me. The row of machines at the front door of the classroom are vending machines, which are full of classified materials, including metals, textiles, rubber, food ingredients... Most of the materials that can be used for handicrafts are available here. The row of cabinets at the back door is the tool rental area, which has all kinds of tools. To use them, just swipe the door card on the sensor area in front of the corresponding tool, and go to the front desk to pay when you finish. By the way, if the materials you need are not available in the vending machine, you can register at the front desk, and they may be available next time you come, and the same goes for tools."

Ji Linkai was really a little surprised. The design of this classroom seemed a bit too high-end even on Ghost Street.

Xing Yong was amused by Ji Linkai's reaction: "I believe you are here for the first time today. I was just like you when I first came here, and everything I saw was strange. It's just that this classroom has been open for a long time, but there are not many people. I want to suggest that the owner change the name. Don't call it "Mobile Classroom". "House of Requests" is more in line with its positioning, and maybe it can attract some curious people."

Ji Linkai didn't know what to say.

Xing Yong didn't seem to be depressed or hesitant at all in the Ghost Street, and he didn't hide his love for the DIY hut.

Ji Linkai rented a few tools and bought some materials from the vending machine.

He found that the metal materials that were limited to purchase in the classroom opposite could also be bought in the mobile classroom, and the purchase limit was five pieces, but the price was also increased by one third.

Ji Linkai directly swiped five materials, returned to the No. 6 operating table, and tried to make a special gun and bullets with willpower according to the instructions on the ghost bracelet.

Due to the shortage of materials and the urgency to test his ability as soon as possible, Ji Linkai decided to make a small revolver and equip it with six willpower bullets.

Before officially making it, Ji Linkai first checked the willpower value on the bracelet.

According to the system test, he can generate six willpower points in an hour.

It was only six points, and Ji Linkai was a little disappointed.

The system explained that it takes six willpower points to make a willpower bullet, and it takes 128 willpower points to make a revolver.

These are additional consumption besides the basic materials.

Ji Linkai suddenly felt that the basic ability value setting of the Ghost Bracelet was too strict, so that the functionality of the bracelet was greatly reduced and it was a bit useless.

I bought a lot of materials, but I didn't have enough wish points.

Ji Linkai flipped through the panel boredly and clicked on the redemption page. Thirty thousand ghost coins could be exchanged for three wish points, and it could only be redeemed once every seven days.

While Ji Linkai cursed himself for being a sucker in his heart, he stuffed thirty thousand golden octopus coins into the storage compartment of the Ghost Bracelet, and then transferred it to his personal account to redeem the wish points.

"You have successfully redeemed three wish points!"

Three wish points couldn't even make a bullet. Ji Linkai exited the redemption page and clicked on the battle system again.

The battle system page has changed. The crafting table that was gray and unselectable a few minutes ago due to insufficient willpower has become a gold selectable area.

The three willpower points he paid for were not filled with ordinary willpower, but a separate gold area next to it.

The small print reads: "The system redeems willpower for 100% pure real willpower."

What is the difference between real willpower and his own willpower?

Ji Linkai couldn't figure it out, but because of the existence of these three points of real willpower, the DIY area of ​​the battle system seemed to be able to operate.

He temporarily put aside all the doubts in his heart and began to draw the design drawings of the revolver and willpower bullet on the panel.

Two hours later, the drawings of various parts were completed.

Ji Linkai stood up to stretch his stiff shoulders. Xing Yong, who was working at the next operating table, had left at some point and posted a note outside his door.

Ji Linkai picked up the note and read it. He was about to put it in his pocket, but paused and put the note into the ghost bracelet.

After a few minutes of rest, he began to make parts with the help of the ghost bracelet.

The DIY area of ​​the ghost bracelet is quite smart. Materials and tools are put in according to the data obtained after the evaluation of the drawings. Finally, the willpower is used up and a perfect part is obtained after waiting for a few minutes.

The whole process lasted about two and a half hours. When the three willpower points were used up, all the parts and six willpower bullets were spread out on the table in front of Ji Linkai.

He spent several minutes assembling it and loading it with bullets, but there was no place to test the gun.

Ji Linkai was playing with the freshly fired Willpower revolver when he suddenly felt an unbearable wave of hunger and fatigue. He looked at the time and found that it was already past seven in the evening. No wonder he was hungry.

He was the only one left in the classroom.

Ji Linkai quickly packed up the unused materials on the operating table, returned the tools, and dragged his weak legs out of the classroom. He immediately smelled a fragrance that made him swallow his saliva.

The door of the lounge was not closed, and the employees were sitting together eating dinner.

Ji Linkai stood at the door and looked for a few seconds. He had never felt so hungry before, and his saliva was about to flow out.

What are they eating?

It smells so delicious. Lu Yao

was not in the lounge. She and Huang Qi were sitting in the lobby eating lunch boxes.

She made a wish box in the afternoon, which took a lot of energy. In the evening, she ordered grilled seafood to reward herself.

Ji Linkai finally used his strong willpower to restrain the urge to beg for food. He walked out dizzy and almost knelt down. Lu Yao

looked over and said kindly: "Do you... want to eat something?"

Ji Linkai stood up with the help of the wall, a little confused: "Can I eat?"

Lu Yao: "You look like you have consumed too much. You will feel better if you eat something to replenish your body."

Seeing the large skewers of charcoal-grilled tiger shrimp, the shiny grilled eels, and the huge mantis shrimp longer than his forearm in front of Lu Yao, Ji Linkai's eyes turned green.

He used the last of his willpower to restrain his crazy drooling, and tried his best to maintain a polite demeanor. He walked to the opposite side of Lu Yao and sat down: "How much is it? I will pay."

Lu Yao: "Eat first. Do you want seafood?"

Ji Linkai nodded restrainedly.

After a meal, Ji Linkai ate so much that he could not stand up straight before he reluctantly put down his chopsticks.

It would be great if the golden octopus could be made into such delicious barbecue.

------

Ji Linkai was the last customer of the day. After eating in the store, he left a stack of banknotes and ran away without looking back.

Lu Yao wanted to ask him something, but he disappeared as soon as he turned around.

Xiao Cai said that when Ji Linkai left, his ears were red.

Lu Yao's face was numb: "It turned red after eating."

Liu Jing smiled: "He ate so deliciously, I was so greedy."

Lu Yao: "If you want to eat, order supper later."

Several shop assistants shook their heads.

They still have psychological burdens.

Several patrol motorcycles stopped outside the DIY hut, and Jiang Lin walked in with him. When they saw Lu Yao, they looked aggrieved: "Owner, the knives were all swallowed."
