Chapter 88



Chapter 88

In the daily life of running a supermarket, apart from greeting customers and organizing shelves, most of the time is spent sitting behind the cashier. Jiang Li found a lot of things for himself to do.

For example, learning magic, learning magic circles, and relaxing and entertaining in between studies.

For example, at this moment, Jiang Li lowered his head and saw the Candy Crush page on his mobile phone. A small game that can be played by oneself without connecting to the Internet.

He calmly turned off the screen and put the phone into the drawer: "Is there anything I can do?"

The customer in a black robe looked through the table and still stayed on his phone.

Nekomas: "I want this."

Jiang Li: "Sorry, this is not for sale."

Nekomas: "I can increase the price tenfold."

Jiang Li: "..."

Understanding his refusal from the human's silence, Nekomas raised his head and hesitated for a moment, wondering whether he should unseal himself here and use the magic of hypnosis to make the human give the goods in his hand to him.

If the seal is lifted, it will inevitably attract the guards in the city. It will be inconvenient to come to this human city in the future. I wonder if there are any in other human cities...

"...Do you want to play games?" Jiang Li had an idea and thought: "Have you finished the puzzles and building blocks you bought last time?" "

Yes."

"So fast? You bought several things at that time..." Jiang Li glanced at the calendar: "It's only been a few days, and you have finished all of them? This is your first attempt, and I thought it would take a lot of time."

The Demon King Nekomis said calmly: "As long as you don't sleep, you can save a lot of time."

Jiang Li: "..."

He looked at the guest in front of him hesitantly, and the dark circles under his eyes were particularly obvious on his pale face.

"Do you want puzzles and building blocks this time?" Jiang Li paused and said, "I suggest you take a rest. No matter how magical the magic potion is, you should pay attention to sleep."

Nekomus: "Not this time." "

Then..."

"I want to buy the prop you just held in your hand."

"..."

The devil looked at him firmly.

Before the owner of the supermarket noticed, he had been standing by and watching for a long time. Although the thin prop would make strange noises that he couldn't hear, it was very simple to operate. Just slide the screen and put the blocks of the same color together, and those blocks will disappear. Although the gameplay is simple, it is very addictive. Unconsciously, Nekomus watched for a long time.

He remembered the puzzles and building blocks he had played before, which were also similar. Although the operation is very simple, once you immerse yourself in it, you will forget everything, even time will be thrown out of the world.

But puzzles and building blocks have an end. Even the most complex and difficult toys will reach the end one day, but Candy Crush has no end. It seems to be a long journey with no end, enough to stay in his almost endless life for a long time.

But...

Jiang Li said helplessly: "Sorry, that is really not for sale. Even if I sell it to you, you can't use it."

Nekomus was puzzled: "Why?"

Because there is no communication network in the other world, no matter how smart the mobile phone is, it is just a thin brick in the hands of people in the other world. Even Jiang Li himself can only use some basic functions, and even the game can only be played without connecting to the Internet.

...Huh?

Wait?

Jiang Li thought of something, and said with sudden realization: "Do you want to play games?"

Nekomus tilted his head: "Games? If it's the kind you just played, yes."

"If you just want to play games, you don't need a mobile phone at all, a game console will do."

Jiang Li said, and walked out from behind the cashier again, but this time he didn't go to the shelves again, but went into the storage room next to the warehouse where miscellaneous items were placed.

Nekomus stood there, and while waiting, he looked around, picked up a hand-held basket from the side, and started to pick in the supermarket.

Not only toys to kill time, every item sold in this supermarket made him curious, and the food was incredibly delicious. He put a lot of hot pot base into the basket, and piled various snacks on it.

After tasting the food in Dolei City, during the days of building blocks, he wanted to put down what he was doing and go to the human city several times, but he tried hard to hold back. This time, he must prepare enough supplies. Not only his, but also Savile's.

When Jiang Li found what he wanted and came out of the storage room, there were already several baskets full of goods on the cash register.

What Jiang Li found out from the storage room was an older game console, but it was well preserved and looked very new.

Nekomis curiously stuck his head over: "Is it the one you just played?"

"It's different, but it should be similar to what you want." Jiang Li said.

After replacing the new battery, the game console turned on smoothly, and the familiar pixel pattern appeared on the small screen. Jiang Li manipulated the buttons skillfully and selected the most familiar Tetris in the game list.

Blocks of different shapes fell from the top. The buttons were used to adjust the left and right and the direction. They were quickly arranged in several rows at the bottom. After they were filled, they were eliminated.

After Jiang Li demonstrated how to play Tetris, he saw the black-robed guest's eyes suddenly become interested.

"And this one, this is Greedy Snake."

Jiang Li opened another game. A small snake twisted its body on the screen. As beans were eaten one by one, its body quickly grew larger until it accidentally hit the wall. The screen showed the words "Game Over".

The devil straightened his back and jumped up to try.

In addition to these two, this small game console also contains many stand-alone games, each of which contains the records Jiang Li left before.

This pixel-style game is really too old-fashioned. As a college student who has just graduated, it is certainly not a childhood memory for Jiang Li. It is a product he bought online during surfing in the middle of the night. However, after playing it a few times, he put it down.

With the development of technology, game consoles have also been updated. Single challenge games have gradually become richer in content. Not only do they have plots, but the gameplay is also diverse. The reason why this old game console is recommended to customers is not because they cannot afford the latest game consoles, but because it uses batteries.

All game consoles nowadays are charged with power cords, but there is no such thing as electricity in the other world!

This is also the reason why Jiang Li has always refused to sell electrical appliances to the other world.

Despite this, this small handheld game console is enough to shock the poor spiritual world of the residents of the other world.

How interesting it is!

"I want this!" Nekomus immediately said, "How much is this?"

"As for this one..." After all, it is a second-hand toy that he has played with, and the original price is also very cheap. Jiang Li glanced at the mountain of goods piled up on the cash register, and he said, "If you don't mind, this will be given to you as a gift."

...

"Niekomus?"

The black dragon leaned on the wall of the castle, stretched his head, and used his snout to push open the closed window of the Demon King's bedroom.

"Nebomi?" It called out the name of its slave: "You have locked yourself in there for a month, are you still alive?"

With a "pop", the tightly closed window was opened from the inside, and the black dragon took the opportunity to squeeze itself in. When it landed, it had turned into a humanoid shape that was more convenient for moving around in the house.

In the huge bedroom, the windows were tightly closed, the dark curtains were drawn, and only the not-so-bright light from the candles illuminated the room. Savior looked around and finally found the dark figure in a dim corner. A

faint light emanated from the machine in the hands of the demon king. He operated it expressionlessly, pressing the button hard with his thumb. In the reflection of the faint light, there were heavy dark circles under his pale face.

"Niekomus?"

Nekomus snapped his fingers, and the greedy snake on the screen ran headfirst into the wall. Soon, the game ended.

He threw the game console aside and rubbed his sore neck: "What's the matter, Saville?"

"I came to see if you are alive, and..." Saville took out an empty bag, which was a shopping bag brought back from the supermarket: "You should go to the human city again."

Saville couldn't help but say: "Niekomu, what happened? You locked yourself in the house for a month. I heard from other demons that no matter who comes to find you, it's useless."

"I'm just playing games."

"Game?" Black Dragon: "A game of counting gold coins? I like it too. But your subordinates thought something happened to you and even found me."

The demon king stretched his waist for a long time, and his body, which had not changed its posture for a long time, made a creaking sound under the heavy load. He asked: "They came to you? What did they say?"

"You stopped giving them orders, which made them panic, but I was counting my gold coins at the time, so I chased them away." The black dragon shook the bag in his hand: "So, when are you going to the human city again? The last time's food has been eaten."

"Now." Nekomuro replied.

How can it be fun to play games when being a demon king?

He has played all the games in this game console and refreshed his own records countless times. He began to feel a little bored.

He should find some new fun.

...

At the same time.

The residents of Dolei City also ushered in great news.

They have lights in Dolei City!
