Ding Dong! Ding Dong!
The shrill sound of the doorbell kept drilling into Ren Suo's ears. He rubbed his eyes with a grunt, turned his body sideways and continued to sleep.
The doorbell continued to ring, and Ren Suo felt a wetness on the right side of his face - saliva flowed onto the pillow, and he touched it when he turned his face to the side.
The strange feeling of nausea and the irritation of the doorbell finally dispelled Ren Suo's sleepiness. He wiped the mysterious tears from the corners of his mouth, put on his slippers, walked to the door, unlocked the security lock, opened the door, and saw a courier wearing a red and white coat uniform outside.
"This is your package," the courier said. "Please sign for it."
Ren Suo remembered something and his heart instantly jumped up. He quickly opened the security door, signed for the package, moved the large box into the house, and excitedly found a knife to open the package!
“Hehehe——” Ren Suo rubbed his palms, his eyes burning with fire, and used a knife to cut the plastic straps of the big box. With a pious heart, he came to marry the bride of his dreams that he had dreamed of for twenty-two years——
Home video game console!
As a young man who grew up healthily, had sound values, and had no place to vent his energy every day, Ren Suo, like most people, also longed to own a game console that he could play however he wanted.
However, his family was not well-off when he was a child, and in order to study hard, his parents did not buy him a game console.
When he entered university, due to academic and internship issues, Ren Suo only bought a laptop for work and study. Moreover, he did not have extra money to buy games, and it was not convenient to place a game console in the dormitory.
Now he is a senior student preparing to work. He has found a job and is completing his graduation project. Ren Suo's uncle owns a property in Lianjiang City. He half-let and half-gave it to Ren Suo, allowing him to rent a residential apartment in the center of Lianjiang City at a very affordable price. He now has a foothold in Lianjiang City.
With only a few months left before graduation and work, Ren Suo used the little money he earned during his internship to purchase an Inferno 4 game console on an online shopping platform, so that he could experience the thrill of playing games and enjoy the hottest blockbuster of the moment!
But when Ren Suo opened the courier box, what appeared before his eyes was not the Hell 4 box that he had seen countless times online, but a...
A round black steel box?
He pulled out the round box with a little hesitation, and felt a cool touch on his palm, like a stream of clear water that dissipated the heat from his body - the Lianjiang River began to get hot in March, and in order to save some electricity, Ren Suo would set the air conditioner to a timer of one and a half hours even on summer nights, so that he would automatically wake up in the morning due to the heat.
This box looked about the same size as the blue jar of cookies, but Ren Suo couldn't find the lid of the box. It looked like a perfectly round steel mold.
However, Ren Suo weighed it with his hand and felt that it was not very heavy, so it was definitely not made of solid steel.
Ren Suo turned the round box over and saw a twistable depression in the center of the other side of the box - just like the knob on those cheating gashapon machines - without any hesitation, Ren Suo turned the button in the depression.
A clanging sound startled Ren Suo. He saw cross-shaped cracks suddenly appear on the upper and lower sections of the round box. Mist like dry ice spurted out of the cracks, and the round box disintegrated, revealing the object inside.
Ren Suo picked up the black steel round cover that he had turned the knob on and took a look. He discovered that there was a mortise and tenon structure on the inner edge. When he turned it just now, he pulled out the core support in the mortise and tenon mechanism, so the box fell apart.
Although Ren Suo could understand it, it seemed that the person who made this box really had nothing better to do than spend so much effort on making a box for storing things just to create the effect of spreading fog.
Inside the box was a strange round machine. This machine was also pure black, and it looked like countless vinyl records stacked together.
Ren Suo scraped the side of the machine with his fingers. He felt his nails passing over the layers of metal sections and confirmed that there were gaps between each layer. However, the gaps were so small that even his nails could not fit in.
“Isn’t this thing Hell 4?”
Ren Suo was very surprised. He immediately took out his phone and found the customer service of the online shopping platform and sent a message: "Hello."
Customer Service: "Dear cat user, this is the official customer service of Hell Game. The limited edition of Hell 4 Eternal Warriors is on pre-sale. Popular games are on sale at a 50% discount. Hell Store online point cards are available. Delivery is cat-only. For remote areas, delivery time is extended to 10 days. Please check the courier information."
Ren Suo: “Are you there?”
Customer Service: "Hello, I'm here. How can I help you?"
Ren Suo: "It's like this, I found that the Hell 4 game console I received doesn't seem to be the one I wanted to buy..."
Customer Service: "OK, please wait, I will check for you now..."
30 seconds later, the customer service sent a message: "Dear, when you bought the Hell 4 game console, it seems that you automatically used the coupon of 888 RMB for purchases over 2,000 RMB, but the Maomao platform did not give a discount when you paid. When the information was fed back to the backend, it was identified as you bought the Hell 4 PRO version for 2,888 RMB, so the Lianjiang warehouse directly sent you the Hell 4 PRO."
Ren Suo: "Huh? Did you send me Hell 4PRO?"
Customer Service: "Yes. If you are not satisfied, you can return the product through the after-sales service of the Mao Mao platform, but the coupons worth 2000-888 that you have used will be gone. However, Hell Game is willing to give you a store coupon worth 2000-500 as compensation."
Ren Suo looked at the round game console on the table, hesitated, and replied: "I'll try it first, and return it if I don't like it."
"Yes, you can return the product unconditionally within seven days. When you successfully return the product, Hell Game will automatically send you a coupon. If you think the product is good, please take a photo and give it a five-star review~"
Ren Suo turned off his phone and started tinkering with the new game console.
But he still had some doubts in his heart - Ren Suo was not unaware of Hell 4 PRO. In fact, as the latest game console launched this year, Hell 4 PRO was an upgraded version of Hell 4 with more powerful performance. It was just released in Xuan Country two days ago. Ren Suo also considered buying Hell 4 or Hell 4 PRO, but considering his limited money, he chose to buy Hell 4.
But he remembered that Hell 4PRO was not of this model!
"Forget it, I might as well give it a try. I can return it anyway..." With the mentality of 'it's better to get it for free than to use it', Ren Suo began to study this game console.
He soon discovered three problems.
First, he couldn't find the power plug for the game console, nor did he see the socket for the game console;
Second, he didn't find the video and audio output cable for the game console, nor did he see the socket for the game console;
Third, he couldn’t find the handle.
"This is a large pile of waste!" Ren Suo was stunned. Just as he was about to go to the customer service to complain, the doorbell rang again.
He opened the door and found another cat-delivery courier outside.
"Please sign for your delivery."
"Another express delivery?" Ren Suo was a little confused. After signing his name, he took the package home and quickly opened it with a knife.
Three seconds later, the packaging box of the Hell 4 PRO game console appeared in front of him.
