The man suddenly rushed out and scared the eldest child.

He took a step back, patted his chest, and said, "Who are you? Why should I lend you money?"

Da Wa thought who knew him? He had made a lot of money and came to borrow money.

After all, he has made a lot of money in the clothing business recently. If someone finds out that he has made money and asks him for a loan, it is not impossible.

But on second thought, he denied this possibility. After all, even if someone was interested, it would be impossible for them to find out his nickname. His public name was Boss Shen Zhanping.

Thinking of this, Da Wa carefully looked at the sloppy "homeless man" in front of him and found that he looked somewhat familiar, especially the pair of eyes under the messy hair, which looked very familiar.

It was Da Hu who was sharp-eyed. He pointed at the 'homeless man' and screamed, "Are you Su Guangzong?!"

"Su Guangzong!" Da Wa and Er Niu exclaimed in surprise.

It’s no wonder that the two were surprised, because the Su Guangzong in front of them was very different from the Su Guangzong in their impression.

In their impression, Su Guangzong was a top student with fair skin and a somewhat handsome appearance. He wore exquisite clothes that Ning Xue had spent a lot of effort to make for him. He was usually very gentle, refined and handsome, and had never gotten angry with anyone.

The 'Su Guangzong' in front of him was wearing tattered clothes. Looking closely, it seemed to be the sweater with a red background and white clouds embroidered on it that Ning Xue had made for him. However, it had not been washed for a long time and was somewhat yellowed and blackened. When he got closer, he could smell a smell like a mixture of tobacco and sweat, which was foul and unpleasant.

His hair hadn't been cut for a long time, and he had tied it into a small braid at the back of his head. The hair in the front was tangled into clumps by sweat, covering most of his face, leaving only a pair of scarlet eyes. No wonder the three of them didn't recognize him at first.

Su Guangzong smoothed his long hair that was in the way and pursed his lips. "It's me." He repeated, "Big boy, lend me some money."

Before the eldest child could say anything, the second girl wrinkled her nose and said, "Su Guangzong, how long have you not taken a bath?"

Da Huzi looked into Su Guangzong's eyes and asked, "Also, how long have you not slept?"

His eyes are red and full of bloodshot. It must be because he hasn't slept for several days and nights.

Su Guangzong ignored their questions and just stared at Da Wa. He said in a hoarse voice, "Dawa, lend me some money."

"What money do you want to borrow?" Erniu stamped her feet. "You are in this state now, what money do you want? Hurry up, drink some water, take a nap, and take a rest." If you continue like this, you will die suddenly.

Su Guangzong ignored Erniu and frowned impatiently, "Hurry up and give me the money." As he spoke, he stared at Da Wa with his eyes fixed on her. He looked like a beast that would choose its prey, which was very scary. He added, "I know you have money. Lend it to me quickly. I'll ask my parents to pay you back later."

He was so sure that Da Wa had money. Da Wa was surprised and asked him, "How do you know I have money?"

Su Guangzong glanced at him and said, "I saw you selling clothes at the stall."

Shanghai is so small that Da Wa could see Su Guangzong going to the game hall, and Su Guangzong could also see Da Wa and Da Hu setting up a stall to sell clothes. After all, neither of them avoided people, so he ran into them several times.

"Hey, Su Guangzong, you're running out of money. The next round is about to start."

A tall, thin, and rascally young man leaning against a red light box shouted at Su Guangzong, caught a glimpse of Erniu from the corner of his eye, and whistled at her.

Erniu glared back.

The young man did not back off, but became even more excited, "Wow, it's quite hot."

When Su Guangzong heard that the game was about to begin, his eyes lit up terribly and he said anxiously, "Li Gou, wait a moment, I'll be there soon." After saying that, he stared at Da Wa's pocket.

Da Wa swallowed and said, "I can lend it to you, but first you tell me why you want the money."

Su Guangzong said impatiently, "Isn't this obvious? Borrowing money to play games."

The young man took a look into the dark game room and shouted again, "Hurry up, it's really about to start."

If it weren't for the fact that Da Wa had three people with him, and he and Da Hu were two strong men, they would have suspected that Su Guangzong was going to snatch it away, "...You, how much do you want to borrow? Let's tell you first, do you have more?"

He really didn't have much money on him. Most of it was spent on purchasing goods, leaving only enough money for food.

Su Guangzong thought for a moment and said, "Lend me three hundred first."

"Three hundred?!" Erniu exclaimed in surprise, "Where can my brother lend you three hundred yuan? Do you think the money came from the wind?"

Su Guangzong glanced at her and said, "Your brother doesn't have any, so you and Dahu can add some together, and you can definitely make up 300."

Erniu said anxiously, "Don't play any games anymore." It's become so messed up. "We don't have any money."

Su Guangzong looked at the three people deeply and said, "You have no money, right? OK, I'll borrow from others." Then he ran away.

"Wait a minute." The eldest boy rolled his eyes and stopped him. "I really don't have 300 yuan on me. How about 100 yuan?"

"One hundred yuan? That's fine." Su Guangzong licked the corner of his mouth, looked greedily at Da Wa's pocket, and said, "Give it to me."

Da Wa slowly counted out one hundred yuan from his pocket. Su Guangzong couldn't wait to grab it and ran into the game room as soon as he got the money.

Da Wa and Da Hu looked at each other and waved to Er Niu, "Follow us."

Erniu was surprised and took two quick steps, "Where are we going?"

Da Hu said, "Follow him and see what kind of 'game' he is playing."

What kind of "game" could make Su Guangzong so obsessed that he was willing to borrow money to play it?

The three followed Su Guangzong into the game room.

They were a step too slow. Su Guangzong had already exchanged the 100 yuan he borrowed from Dawa for gaming coins from the boss sitting at the counter.

One dollar can buy two game coins. He thought that this hundred dollars was enough to buy two hundred game coins.

The silvery white game coins were piled in the pink basket, looking full like a small mountain of silver coins. However, Su Guangzong still thought it was not enough, so he grabbed a handful of game coins, which leaked out from his fingertips. "It's just this little."

The young man took a puff of cigarette and exhaled a cloud of white smoke, "It's quite a bit, let's have some fun first." He glanced at Da Wa, Er Niu and Da Hu, and curled his lips in a rogue manner, "Aren't your three friends here too? Just borrow from them when you spend all the money."

Su Guangzong followed his gaze and looked over. Seeing Da Wa, Er Niu and Da Hu, he was surprised, "Why did they follow us?" He waved his hands and said, "Forget it, let's not get entangled. Let's have fun first."

As soon as Big Boy came in, he looked around the game room. The game room was just as his roommate had described. There were more than ten or twenty game machines inside. In front of each game machine sat either a shirtless young man or a child of seven or eight years old.

As soon as Erniu came in, she smelled cigarette smoke and frowned, "Where is Su Guangzong?"

Find him quickly, figure out what's going on and then retreat. If she continued to smell it, she thought she would suffocate.

Da Hu looked around and pointed, "He? Over there."

Su Guangzong sat in front of a game machine, put the basket of game coins on the machine, and stared at the screen. The colorful light projected by the screen made his eyes look charming.

He looked at the gorgeous screen of the fruit machine, but what came to his mind were the various experiences he had in the game hall.

After reading the report, Su Guangzong realized that to study medicine, he had to learn anatomy. What is anatomy? It is to cut open frogs and rabbits to see the structures inside.

He already had a problem with blood loss, and was even more afraid of disgusting things.

During the first anatomy class, he rushed out of the classroom to vomit, and he refused to attend this class again after that. His aversion to anatomy class gradually affected his academic subjects. Gradually, he felt that studying medicine required studying books as thick as bricks, which was very boring and meaningless.

So it developed that when others were in class, he slept in the dormitory; when others were studying, he wandered around the campus. But sleeping too much became boring, and he got bored of wandering around the campus, so he just went for a walk outside.

By chance, he came into contact with the game hall.

There are many games in a game room. Such fun games are much more interesting than boring books.

At the beginning, he just played the fighting game which cost one coin to play once. Although it was fun, he gradually got bored of it. At this time, Li Gou appeared. Li Gou told him that he had been observing him for a long time and found that he was not short of money. He told him that there were game machines in the game hall that were more fun than the fighting game machines - the fruit machines.

Of course, it would cost more, but Li Gou believed that he could afford it.

He only tried it once and was immediately addicted.

He exchanged all the more than one thousand yuan given by his parents into game coins. From then on, he ate, lived and played in the game hall.

What a great place this is. There are people to play with, and no one will say anything if you don't want to study. No one will force you to take a damn anatomy class.

Thinking about this, Su Guangzong grabbed a handful of game coins and stuffed them into the coin hole, gritting his teeth and saying, "I must win this time!"

Da Wa saw that Su Guangzong was not acting normal, so he gave Da Hu a look. Da Hu understood and stepped forward to ask, "What are you playing at?"

Su Guangzong heard what Da Hu said, looked at him distractedly, and laughed, "Why, you want to play too?"

Da Hu said, "Yes, I'm quite curious. Is it fun?"

"It's fun." Su Guangzong said without thinking.

He pointed at the screen and said, "This is called a fruit machine. Look at the screen. Are there fruits like watermelon, grapes, and bananas? Put coins in. If three of the same kind of fruits appear, you win."

Su Guangzong demonstrated it to Da Hu himself. He grabbed a handful of game coins and threw them into the fruit machine one by one. After he threw five, the fruit machine started to refresh the fruit patterns automatically.

The first one is an apple, the second one is a grape, and the third one is still an apple.

If there are not three identical fruits, a red failure sign will pop up on the screen.

Su Guangzong slammed the machine and shouted, "Oh, what a pity!"

When he struck the ball hard, the coins in the pink basket shook twice, and the three of them, Da Wa and the other two, were even more frightened.

Da Hu asked, "What if we win?"

"Won?" Su Guangzong's eyes were filled with greed. "If we win, we will make a lot of money."

Da Wa observed for a while and found that Su Guangzong lost more than he won with this handful of coins. It would be considered lucky if he could win one or two out of ten.

The amount of game coins lost is much greater than what is won back.

But Su Guangzong refused to believe in evil. The more he lost, the more excited he became. He clenched his fists and his eyes were red. "I will definitely win the next round!"

Another handful of coins was thrown in.

In less than an hour, the game coins that he had borrowed for the hundred yuan were all lost.

Su Guangzong counted the few coins left in the pink basket and sighed, "This is not even enough for a round of fun."

They were having a 'good time', but Erniu was watching from the side and was terrified, "What's the difference between this and throwing money into the sea?"

One hour, one hundred dollars!

Some families could not earn more than 100 yuan a month, but Su Guangzong spent all of it in just one hour.

The eldest boy replied, "At least you can hear the sound of money thrown into the sea."

Playing this fruit machine, no matter how much money you have, it's like a drop in the ocean.

The eldest boy also vaguely figured out something. This Laoshi fruit machine was a little different from the game machines that other people were playing.

The game machines that others play cost one coin per play, and a game takes about five to ten minutes to complete.

As for the fruit machine that Su Guangzong was playing, it had no upper limit. Five coins was the lowest. You could bet as much as you wanted, even one thousand coins or ten thousand coins.

This kind of thing that bets on probability is called a game machine, but in fact, it is almost the same as gambling.

Moreover, you lose more than you win, so you will definitely not be able to make back your investment.

Su Guangzong put the basket on the plane, glanced at Da Wa and Da Hu, and rolled his eyes, "You saw it too? Isn't it fun?"

Da Hu shook his head, not understanding, "What's so fun about this?"

It just displays three identical fruit images, and it costs money.

Su Guangzong rolled his eyes at him, "You are such a fool." He shook his head, "You really don't know what's good."

He stood up and stretched, then reached for the water bottle. He took a few sips and found that there was no water. He turned the bottom of the cup upside down and found that there was no water. He shouted to the counter, "Boss, give me a soda."

The boss was a big-bellied burly man. He glanced at him and said, "Unit 16, you already owe more than a thousand yuan. You can't give me any more."

Erniu exclaimed, "What? You still owe money?"

The money I borrowed was not enough, and it turned out that I still owed a lot of money here.

Su Guangzong said nonchalantly, "I only owe more than a thousand yuan, this little money is nothing." He rubbed his hands and looked at Da Wa, Er Niu and Da Hu with shining eyes, "Let's not talk about this. Do you three have any money left? Lend me some more." He pouted, "Don't worry, it's just this little money, I will definitely pay it back."

Da Wa, Er Niu, and Da Hu looked at each other and said in unison, "No money!"

"Tsk." Su Guangzong said with disdain, stood up and walked to the counter, knocking on the table, "Boss, give me a piece of paper and a pen, I'll write you an IOU and pay you the money."

"Write an IOU." The boss nodded. "Okay, remember to stamp your fingerprints and pay me back quickly."

Su Guangzong nodded twice, took the paper and pen skillfully, wrote the IOU, and pressed his red handprint.

The movements were smooth and flowing, but it made the eldest boy's heart beat fast.

He? This action is so skillful, it is probably not the first time he has written it.

Erniu nudged Da Wa with her elbow, "Brother, are you just going to let him write an IOU?"

The eldest child asked, "What else can you do? Can you persuade him?"

He and Dahu had realized that no one could persuade Su Guangzong, who was so crazy.

Erniu was kind-hearted after all. "Even if persuasion doesn't work, you still have to persuade her."

"Then you try it." said Big Boy.

Erniu stepped forward and said to Su Guangzong, "Su Guangzong, you, it's not right for you to play like this."

Su Guangzong glanced at her and said, "What's wrong with that? I just like it. You don't understand. Playing games is much more interesting than studying."

Erniu stuttered, "Well, you can't borrow money to play games. You've squandered all the money you have at home."

Su Guangzong handed the IOU to his boss. "I told you, my family is rich. That's what my mother said." He frowned and said, "If you don't want to play, don't bother me."

After saying that, he ignored the three people and turned back to his fruit machine, staring at the screen with a look of infatuation.

Da Wa sighed. He never thought that Su Guangzong would become like this.

Erniu gritted her teeth and said, "No, I have to take him away. What will happen if we continue playing like this?"

Da Hu said, "I don't think he will necessarily go along with you."

Su Guangzong is now obsessed with the game. If someone tries to stop him, he might even attack and beat the person.

Erniu glanced at Su Guangzong again, seeing that he looked like he didn't care about anything else. "...So no one cares about him?"

Big Wa said, "The person who can take charge is not here." He was referring to Ning Xue.

But in the end we still have to do our best. We can't just watch Su Guangzong go on like this.

Da Wa and Da Hu looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and went up to grab Su Guangzong's arms, one on the left and one on the right, "Stop playing around, and come with us quickly."

Su Guangzong was addicted to the game. He stared at the screen, clenched his fists, and kept saying, "Win for me, win for me."

He was suddenly dragged away from the game console by Da Wa and Da Hu. He didn't even see what fruit pattern appeared. His eyes widened and he shouted angrily, "What are you doing!"

Da Hu took a deep breath and said, "We are helping you. You can't keep playing like this."

Su Guangzong fiercely shook off his hand, his eyes red, "I don't need your help, I'm fine."

He swung his hand so quickly that Da Wa didn't have time to pull it back, and his arm was swung onto a metal game console.

"Brother!" Erniu hurried forward to check his injuries.

Fortunately, it was just a skin break. She breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Su Guangzong, "Brother, Brother Dahu, don't worry about him. Let's go."

Su Guangzong curled his lips and said, "Go away! You are really meddling in other people's business. You just owe Da Wa a hundred yuan. You can write to my mother and ask for it. Don't say a word about the other things to my mother. Do you understand me?"

Da Wa is too lazy to pay attention to him? He?s really hopeless,

Da Wa walked to the counter and bought three bottles of orange soda. He took the opportunity to chat with the boss and pointed at Su Guangzong's back, "Boss, the guy sitting over there is a regular customer here, right?"

The boss looked in the direction of his finger and laughed, "You mean him? He's really amazing. He can sit here for a whole day if you buy him a bottle of water and a pack of cigarettes."

"Wait, Su Guangzong has learned to smoke?" Erniu asked in surprise.

Actually, it’s okay for adult men to smoke. It’s a personal choice, but Su Guangzong became addicted to smoking too quickly.

The boss glanced at Erniu and said, "He? He's an old smoker, smoking two packs a day at least."

Erniu thought to herself, no wonder she could smell smoke whenever she got close to Su Guangzong.

The boss continued, "This kid is amazing. His best record is that he stayed in our store for a whole month without leaving."

He was grinning from ear to ear, and he must have made a lot of money from Su Guangzong.

"One month?" The eldest boy twitched his lips, not knowing what expression to make. "You mean him? He stayed with you for a month?"

"Yes." The boss said, "It was during the Spring Festival. For him, I opened the shop on New Year's Eve." He added, "He usually plays for a long time. For example, last week, he came for five days and played for more than ten hours every day."

Da Hu frowned and said, "He? Is the money in hand enough to spend with such a trick?"

But he saw that the fruit machine was swallowing coins and spending money like water.

"Enough, of course, if it's not enough, just write an IOU." The boss said cheerfully, "Besides, if you can't play, you can watch others play, and you can also satisfy your craving."

He pointed to the eldest child and the other three and said, "Not all of these people have money to play games. Most of them have no money and are just watching others play."

The eldest boy took a look and found it was true.

Just like Su Guangzong, he had a lot of gaming coins in his hands, and he was playing the most powerful fruit machine. Soon, many people stood behind him, watching him play and cheering with him.

But the eldest child was quick to notice the boss's words and frowned, "You mean he? Plays five days a week? Does he? Still go to school? "

The boss was also stunned, "He is still in school?" He sucked his teeth and said, "Hey, he doesn't look like it."
