357 This World (12)
â—ŽThere is only one world. â—Ž
Zhu Xinqi repeatedly searched through the photo album on her phone to make sure that nothing was recorded. A chill rose up her spine.
She had never thought that one day, something beyond common sense would be so close to her.
As the night approached, the work group was unusually active. The topics of discussion were still lunch boxes and lucky draws. The most discussed were about prizes.
Because everyone had won a prize, even if it was just the most inconspicuous magic sticky notes and daily universal talismans, it gave people a different experience from usual.
The sense of participation was too strong, and everyone was bathed in a vitality that was rarely seen on ordinary days.
Zhu Xinqi looked through the chat records, and her mind, which was seized by the fear of the unknown, gradually calmed down.
Someone in the group was showing off the phone they had won, and she remembered that she had also won one, so she immediately stood up and went to look through her bag.
The phone in the black velvet box was the same as the one her colleague had shown off. It was not a common phone style nowadays, but it was not particularly unusual either - it was ring-shaped, coated with real gold, and it looked like a pure gold bracelet when worn on the wrist.
There were two inconspicuous bumps on the inside of the bracelet, one was the button for turning on and off, and the other was the button for adjusting the screen.
When the bracelet is turned on, a floating screen similar to the surface of a watch will appear on the surface. The size of the surface and the thickness of the bracelet can be adjusted, and the surface supports two indication methods: touch screen selection and voice command.
Zhu Xinqi put on the phone, followed the instructions to complete the binding and registration, and connected the bracelet to the wireless network at home.
Because she was at home, Zhu Xinqi directly chose the floating large screen, which felt a bit like mobile phone screen projection, but in fact it was closer to the character operation interface of the game.
In general, the bracelet phone feels like a lighter and more portable tablet.
After spending some time getting familiar with the basic interface, Zhu Xinqi took a deep breath and prepared to try out the most unique function of this phone.
She clicked on the short video software that she had just downloaded on the bracelet, logged in, and found the food broadcaster she usually likes to watch.
This anchor loves seafood. The popular types she often eats include red devil shrimp, langoustines, mud snails, razor clams, sea cucumber slices, and sea urchins, most of which are eaten raw.
The anchor really loves to eat, slurping, taking two bites of a large shrimp on average, and she especially likes to suck the shrimp brain.
Zhu Xinqi is more sensitive to the smell of the sea, but the anchor enjoys eating so much that she can't help but be curious about the taste and flavor of raw seafood.
The unattainable price of the red devil shrimp restrained her impulse, but expensiveness is not its only drawback. Zhu Xinqi is most worried that she will spend a lot of money to buy it, but she can't eat it after taking a bite, and she may be depressed for several days.
If the bracelet phone that can smell the smell is worthy of its name, she will know whether she can accept the red devil shrimp without spending money.
The video started playing, and a small vertical window appeared on the right side of the floating screen, with three options: normal play, semi-holographic play, and holographic experience.
Semi-holographic? Holographic?
This bracelet can also experience holography?
Zhu Xinqi was a little confused, so she conservatively chose semi-holographic play.
At first, the screen did not change much. Not long after, the anchor began to eat the food in front of him, and Zhu Xinqi's nose was filled with a faint lemon scent.
At first, there was only a little smell. As the anchor peeled off the bright red shrimp shell of the big shrimp in his hand and showed the audience the shrimp brain that was comparable to a small walnut, Zhu Xinqi frowned slightly, and she smelled a strong fishy smell.
Seafood such as pickled raw and sashimi is considered a special delicacy. People who love to eat it love it madly, and people who can't accept it avoid it like snakes and scorpions.
Zhu Xinqi is the type of person who can't accept it. No matter how carefully it is processed, she can always detect the fishy smell that is hard to ignore.
And for people who like to eat this kind of food, this smell is exactly the taste of umami.
The anchor undoubtedly loves raw seafood deeply. She picked up the shrimp brain, slurped it into her mouth, and showed a satisfied expression.
Zhu Xinqi sniffed the increasingly strong fishy smell and wrinkled her face.
Some foods can only be eaten by others, and she can't enjoy it at all.
Zhu Xinqi withdrew, secretly glad that she didn't impulsively experience raw seafood. She picked up her original mobile phone and ordered a takeaway. The waiting time was boring, so she opened her bracelet mobile phone and found a new anchor.
This time, she was a restaurant exploration anchor, who went to some extremely expensive hotels to eat and filmed experience videos for the audience.
Zhu Xinqi used to like watching it, but later she felt that the food in those restaurants was expensive and small in quantity, and she couldn't tell how delicious it was. Besides, she had almost no chance of spending money to experience it, and she couldn't imagine what it would taste like. Over time, she stopped watching it.
Today is different. She has a mobile phone that can smell the food. Even if she can't eat it, just smelling it is great.
A small window popped up on the right. Zhu Xinqi hesitated slightly, moved her finger down, and chose "Holographic Experience".
The picture in front of her changed instantly, and dense unknown characters gathered like ants, gradually constructing concrete objects in front of her - tables, chairs, plates, food, and drinks.
Zhu Xinqi couldn't help but look around. The environment around her was exactly the same as the hotel room where the anchor in the video was.
Time and space suddenly intersected, and the anchor who was visiting the store seemed to be sitting opposite Zhu Xinqi. The two were in the same room. The waiter brought a dish to the anchor, and at the same time, an identical dish appeared in front of Zhu Xinqi.
The curls of hot steam rose, and the aroma penetrated into the tip of her nose. Zhu Xinqi picked up the cutlery like the anchor opposite her, picked up the food on the plate and tasted it.
The first course was a bowl of appetizer soup. The milky white soup looked light and tasteless. It went down the throat in one gulp, and it was warm, sweet, and had a mellow aftertaste.
Zhu Xinqi was mesmerized by the food for only a second. At this moment, what surprised her more was not the food itself, but the supreme experience brought to her by the bracelet and mobile phone.
Is this holography?
Just through the video, you can have the same experience as the anchor.
She doesn't understand the development of technology very well, but she also knows that if such a convenient technology is developed quietly, it is impossible to be sold in such a low profile.
The smart electronic products she is familiar with have to hold a grand development conference every time a new generation is replaced.
Zhu Xinqi has always felt that she is just one of the thousands of ordinary people who come to the world to make up the numbers. She never expected that such an incredible thing would really happen in her life.
After finishing a meal of air-conditioned food in silence, Zhu Xinqi picked up her original mobile phone again, skipped the overwhelming information in the group, clicked on the shopping software, and entered "Luyao's Different World Grocery Store".
The bracelet phone is on the new product page, priced at 69,999, making it the most expensive item in the grocery store so far.
The current sales amount is zero.
Compared with the performance of the phone, the introduction on the details page can be described as simple.
Zhu Xinqi thought for a moment and clicked on the customer service icon in the lower right corner.
[Hello. I used the magic sticky notes and talismans in the store, and the effect was quite good. But there is a problem, the phone seems to be unable to capture the process of using the sticky notes and talismans. ]
High-end intelligence often only requires the simplest means of acquisition, straight to the point.
The message page quickly showed that it had been read, and then a reply was sent.
[Hello. Due to the technical confidentiality agreement, some of the products sold in this store cannot be captured by electronic equipment during the product itself and during the use period. It is not a supernatural event, please feel free to use it. 】
Zhu Xinqi stared at the reply and thought over and over again. She had imagined the possible answers from the other party, but she never thought it would be so simple and crude.
Although it was absurd, it made sense
. Magic sticky notes, universal talismans, and even bracelets and mobile phones were all items that the world had never come into contact with before, and even at first glance they were full of the weird feeling of "testing IQ".
Before actually using them, everyone had doubts in their hearts, and after using them, it was still difficult to restrain the instinct to think.
Zhu Xinqi, like Yan Yi, asked the customer service more for peace of mind. After getting an answer, even if it was not the ultimate answer she wanted, it seemed that she could continue to use these products with peace of mind.
Zhu Xinqi asked the customer service a few more questions, including the address of the grocery store.
The customer service did not hide this and directly told her that there was only one alien grocery store in the world, located in Yaoguang City.
As for sensitive issues, the customer service always used the "technical confidentiality agreement" to pass them over.
After further questioning, the delivery man knocked on the door. Zhu Xinqi was interrupted and got up to pick up the food.
She used to like eating at this restaurant very much, but for some reason tonight, the food tasted very ordinary. It was probably because the lunch was so impressive that it cultivated her taste. After
eating a few mouthfuls that were tasteless, Zhu Xinqi suddenly had an idea. She opened her bracelet and mobile phone again and found a host she usually liked to watch. She found the Jianghu food broadcast that she was interested in from the host's work page, and paired her takeaway with the dishes on the host's table, starting a cyber dinner that she had never imagined.

The photos of Ji Zhixin and several interracial shop assistants had just been circulated on the Internet, and Lu Yao had already learned the news from the Dream Yuanmeng System.
She thought for a moment and said nonchalantly, "Don't pay attention to it for now."
Dream-Fulfilling System: "Aren't you worried about the location of the shopping street being exposed?" Lu
Yao stood up and walked out along the street: "Rather, I'm looking forward to that day. But before that, we do need to take some defensive measures."
Dream-Fulfilling System immediately said: "The popularity value has accumulated to the maximum value, and there is still overflow. We can redeem it for the highest-level defense service."
Lu Yao: "What levels are there?"
Dream-Fulfilling System: "In addition to death, abyss, and fate, the oracles and artifacts of the gods in the Supreme Temple can all be redeemed for popularity points."
Lu Yao: "Where is the Supreme Temple?"
Dream-Fulfilling System was surprised that it had accidentally let the cat out of the bag. It didn't know what was going on. It had been a little dazed recently. It shouldn't have revealed too much information outside of the mission to the store owner.
Lu Yao asked calmly, "Is Lu Mingxiao also from the Supreme Temple?"
The Dream-Fulfilling System remained silent.
Lu Yao did not continue to ask, nor did she use the popularity redemption service.
She walked to the door of the snack bar, smashed the hidden props she had redeemed from the system a long time ago, and then walked out alone without looking back, walking around the outermost boundary of the shopping street. Wherever
the owner went, the shadow followed him.
Late at night, Lu Yao slowly returned to the shopping street and received calls from Harold and Ji Zhixin one after another.
Harold suddenly could not sense Lu Yao's breath and could not find the way back to the shopping street.
Ji Zhixin encountered the same problem. There seemed to be a problem with the teleportation array and it could not be opened.
Lu Yao spent five minutes rewriting the rules and modifying the permissions. The shop assistants who were isolated outside the shopping street finally found their way back.
The Dream Fulfillment System watched silently, not daring to speak.
When the Supreme Temple designed the shop owner to enter the godless land, it was probably never expected that this situation might happen.
The shop owner, who was supposed to be trapped in the godless land and die in despair, no longer needed to rely on the half body of the gods. After "If you can turn into a flower before you die" was created as a new belief and harvested believers, the shop owner gained the ability to create and modify the rules of the world.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the Dream Fulfillment System always feels that as the grocery store becomes more and more famous in this world, the shop owner's power is greater than before.
Lu Yao took some effort to tie up the fence at home, and finally had time to sit down and prepare to eat something to replenish his energy. On the empty street, a space door opened out of thin air, and Harold and Qiuyu came back.
At the same time, in the teleportation room at the other end of the street, the teleportation array suddenly went out, and the other four clerks were also teleported back.
Seeing the owner sitting under the eaves of the grocery store, the clerks automatically leaned over.
Ji Zhixin was a little embarrassed: "Shopkeeper, Ji's is trying its best to deal with the news on the Internet."
It was funny to talk about what happened in the afternoon. No one thought that such an ordinary trip would cause such a high level of heat with just a few photos and videos.
They tried to suppress the popularity that others couldn't buy with money, but they couldn't.
It can only be said that humans are all beauty lovers, only to varying degrees.
Lu Yao waved his hand: "If you can't suppress it, there's no need to force it. Let's discuss it for a while, and the popularity will naturally disappear in a few days. Don't worry too much."
Ji Zhixin was a little surprised, but didn't say much.
There's no need to comment on the owner's decision, just obey.
Tina sat down beside Lu Yao and took out a stack of takeout boxes from her space ring: "The snacks we packed at the mall are all things we have never seen before."
Jiao Niang took out a large stack of snack boxes and various milk teas from her Qiankun bag: "Snacks and milk tea, each one tastes different."
Lu Yao was a little hungry, so he invited everyone to sit down and have a midnight snack together. The staff on duty at other stores were also called over to take away some of the meals and bring them to the store to eat with the staff who could not come.
***
Tianquan City, a villa area in the city center.
The crisp sound of the keyboard and mouse rang through the empty living room. A huge "Victory" logo appeared on the big screen. Xu Zekai let go of the mouse and leaned back in his chair, staring at the bullet screen and said, "I'm hungry after playing. I must have a midnight snack. Brothers, can you recommend a treasure shop?"
The message board scrolled wildly, and netizens' recommendations were varied.
Xu Zekai noticed a high-frequency shop, sat up straight, and held the mouse to press one of the comments: "Luyao's Different World Grocery Store, this name is interesting, but are you sure this store sells food?"
