Chapter 26 Chapter 26 "Tomorrow is a holiday, today's...
"Tomorrow is a holiday, so school will end early today." Lin Huai put aside the uneasy premonition and continued, "Remember not to be late for school next week."
"Hey, is it a holiday tomorrow?" Wen Qian was a little surprised.
He must have skipped classes so much that his mind was so confused that he couldn't even remember such an important thing.
She immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She had originally thought she would have to give up some of her homework, but now it seemed there was still hope. She knew the game wouldn't leave her with a dead end.
"Don't you remember?" Lin Huai was a little surprised, but when he thought about his deskmate's behavior, he felt that it seemed quite normal.
Does it make any difference to her whether she has a holiday or not?
Maybe there will be, for example, there will be one less scene of walking around the classroom every day.
He couldn't see any other differences.
Lin Huai packed up his things and turned his head to look at Wen Qian. His sitting posture was always deliberately upright, just like him.
A textbook good student, both in his attitude towards classmates and his behavior.
"Come with me later." Lin Huai paused, and out of the corner of his eye he saw a few people in the corner of the classroom.
The person who usually plays well with Wu Hao and Yan Yi was looking at Wen Qian vaguely, with a somewhat unfriendly expression on his face.
The malice that was overwhelming them could not be concealed, and they did not seem to have any intention of concealing it.
Lin Huai met Wen Qian's puzzled gaze and lowered his voice, "Someone will probably come to trouble you about what happened with Wu Hao and the other two just now. I'll take you out of the school, and you should go home quickly."
"What, looking for trouble with me!" Wen Qian was overjoyed.
She looked even more excited than those who might come to cause trouble for her, and she couldn't wait to stand up and look around to see who was causing trouble.
When Lin Huai saw Wen Qian's reaction, he choked and swallowed the words of comfort he was about to say.
What on earth is his deskmate thinking about?
Xiao Wen was very happy that someone was so sensible. She had originally thought that the last chance to call the police would be wasted - she had to make up her homework during the holiday, and when she returned to school after the holiday, the chance to call the police would have refreshed once a week.
I didn't expect that a kind-hearted person would come out so quickly.
She smiled brightly and followed Lin Huai's gaze to lock onto the group of people who seemed to be about to attack her.
Throw an encouraging look.
Several male classmates in the corner were stunned. What was her reaction?
"Why do I feel like there's something wrong with this guy?" one of them said hesitantly.
"Don't tell me you're afraid of her." The boy sneered, "If you don't teach her a lesson, she'll really take herself seriously."
"I'm just a little curious why she is smiling so happily?"
Anyone with a brain would have known that they wouldn't let her go, but she looked as if she was confident enough, just waiting for them to come and cause trouble for her.
The boy who just spoke suddenly remembered the elusive policeman, his eyelids twitched, and he quickly expressed his concerns.
The other two also fell silent.
"It's okay, he's just a small policeman. I'll ask my dad to say hello." The mastermind waved his hand, looking indifferent.
"Yeah, what are you afraid of? You should teach her a lesson. What is there to be afraid of? She is alone." A clear and cheerful voice joined the conversation.
The owner of the voice said confidently, "How can one person defeat three people? Forget about saving face. Let's just gang up on her and see how she reacts!"
"That's right, you—"
The male classmate felt like something was wrong, but he nodded subconsciously and turned around with a smile.
His eyes met Wen Qian who was squatting beside him.
"Hello, are you guys going to cause me trouble?" The girl looked at them with a smile, a look of relief on her face that should never appear in such an occasion.
Look what she caught, three NPCs who wanted to cause trouble for her!
There was a flurry of people falling to the ground. The three people who had no idea when Wen Qian came over couldn't sit still for a moment. One of them was so scared that he fell backwards, and the other two were pulled off their chairs by him.
"Why are you panicking? Don't be anxious!" Wen Qian quickly raised his hand to help.
But it can't be broken. If it is broken, it will not even be worth half a bowl of beef noodles. Wouldn't she suffer a huge loss?
Seeing her coming to help them, the three of them panicked even more and backed away.
The King of Qin began to run around the desk.
Other students who are still in the classroom: ...
This afternoon was like a dream.
The farce ended when one of them suddenly seemed to gain enlightenment and ran out of the classroom.
The player didn't chase after her because she had to drag her own little desk to the table and it was a bit too late.
She felt very sorry, but the three people who had successfully escaped breathed a sigh of relief.
"She didn't chase us." The male classmate looked back and confirmed that the lingering figure was not following them. He suddenly felt relieved that he had escaped.
The other man supported himself on his knees and took a few breaths. He hadn't spoken a word from beginning to end, but now he couldn't help it.
"So why are we running? Didn't we say we were going to cause trouble for her?"
The other two: ...
Several people looked at each other and fell silent.
Yes, that’s right…So who is looking for trouble with whom?
"Forget it. Actually, if you think about it carefully, this matter has nothing to do with us. We are not the ones who should be bothered with her." The mastermind changed his previous rhetoric and glanced back warily at this point. "Besides, this girl is not normal. Let's not mess with her."
He delivered his weak exit remarks in a resounding tone.
The three people who only felt ashamed did not expect that their choice to stop was actually the most harmful move against Wen Qian.
Nothing is more painful for players than seeing the gold coins that are about to be obtained slip away.
Looking at the dejected Xiao Wen, Lin Huai didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.
They don't come to trouble her, which is a good thing no matter how you look at it, right?
Lin Huai paused for a long time, looking at Wen Qian's listless appearance as he dragged his desk, and said with a stiff upper lip: "Well, maybe... maybe they will come to trouble you again next time?"
Enough of this nonsense.
Wen Qian was really comforted. Yes, such good things don’t happen often. If it doesn’t work this time, there will always be next time!
She looked at Lin Huai and nodded seriously: "I'll give you my good wishes."
Lin Huai: "...Auspicious words?"
——————
"So... you're actually an NPC that spawns regularly in the academy's public areas?"
The first time Loren saw Wen Qian, she was greeted with an exclamation of sudden enlightenment.
The nonchalant smile on his face froze: "Hmm?"
"I thought you would be happy to see me." He lowered his eyes, walked naturally beside Wen Qian, and leaned forward slightly to look at her.
"After all, I helped you so much." He smiled, holding a photo between his slender fingers and waving it in front of Wen Qian's eyes, "Shouldn't you thank me?"
Wen Qian took the photo in confusion. In the photo, a man and a woman were sitting in a restaurant eating. The girl's hand was on the boy's wrist, and they were very intimate.
It was her and Chu Lingyu.
The player was silent, the player thought, and the player suddenly realized.
"You took a picture of me." Wen Qian said hesitantly, "I don't have to pay you, right?"
I was afraid that he would say that taking a photo is 5 yuan and taking a photo for two is 10 yuan the next second.
"...I didn't take that photo." He looked at Wen Qian, as if trying to see what was going on in her mind. "Aren't you worried?"
"What are you worried about?"
"There are quite a few people who like Chu Lingyu." He chuckled, "And when I discovered it, the person who took the photo was about to post it on the school forum."
"Perhaps it will cause you a little trouble?"
That seemed interesting, he thought aimlessly, but he wanted to see Wen Qian's reaction, so he asked someone to stop him.
What expression would she show, surprise, fear, anger?
Wen Qian was unhappy.
There is actually a forum in school, but she doesn’t even know about this function. Is it because she still doesn’t have a mobile phone?
Xiao Wen was a little sad because he was hit hard by his own poverty.
That’s enough, this is also a way of showing off wealth!
Loren's smile froze when he heard Wen Qian's mumbling. He never thought that she cared about this kind of thing.
"You're not worried?" He glanced at Wen Qian calmly, "Is it because Chu Lingyu will help you?"
Loren admitted that he was a little surprised when he saw the photo. He didn't expect the two people to be so familiar with each other.
Chu Lingyu is not a good-tempered person. He thought that the love letter would give him some fun, but he didn't expect it to end like this.
"Why does Chu Lingyu want to help me?" Wen Qian didn't understand why the topic had turned to this.
"I thought you had a good relationship." He shook the photo in his hand.
"I thought so too." The player sighed, "But he rejected my friend request just like you."
Come to think of it, she sent out two friend requests in total, both of which were rejected... Enough, she actually kicked the same iron wall twice!
"You've touched my sore spot, and I'm going to take my anger out on you." Wen Qian solemnly informed Loren.
When Loren heard the first few sentences, he was a little surprised at Wen Qian's sharpness. Chu Lingyu was indeed not an easy person to get along with, but most students would ignore this fact because of his face.
She saw it clearly, but before she could gather her thoughts, she heard the words that were intended to vent her anger on him.
He couldn't help but chuckle, his brows relaxed: "Don't be angry, do you need my help?"
"For example, so that you can become friends with Chu Lingyu?"
Do you really just want to be friends? Loren followed Wen Qian with ease, feeling like he was about to encounter something interesting.
Wen Qian didn't even raise his eyelids: "Take care of yourself first."
One person who rejected her friend request said that she would ask another person who rejected her friend request to accept her request.
It's kind of funny.
"Don't be upset. How about I give you a gift?" Loren showed a distressed expression that didn't seem to be very sincere. "How about buying you a desk so you don't have to carry your desk with you anymore?"
Wen Qian's mood instantly changed from gloomy to sunny.
What is this, a windfall?
Sure enough, the game couldn’t stand her moving the desk around every day, so it asked the NPC to help her out!
Good game!
[Intelligence Revealed: The furniture given by NPCs is decorative and has no special functions.]
Bad game.
Loren looked at the girl in front of him who had just greeted him with a smile, and the next second his mood fell to the bottom, and he rejected him weakly.
"No……"
"I'm very happy that you gave me a gift."
"But I don't have room for a second table in my house."
Now this one is still on the balcony. Where can I put the next one? On the bed?
"Give me something more practical." She thought thoughtfully.
Loren paused, a smile forming on his lips: "Of course, you can get me anything you want."
"Anything is fine?" Wen Qian thought for a moment, then took the man's hand and placed the handle of the small trailer in his hand. "Take me home."
Loren looked at the cart in front of him in silence.
Xiao Wen politely added, "That's all I need, thank you."
…
Walking along the tree-lined path, the elongated shadows slowly overlapped under the warm light of the setting sun. The silent and warm atmosphere suddenly turned to reality when the cart appeared.
Wen Qian didn't care where the NPC would go after sending her home. She couldn't think about that much.
The mountain of double-condensed homework in front of me is enough to give me a headache.
[Homework (Completed) — Intelligence Point +1]
[Homework 2 (Completed) — Intelligence Point +1]
The system prompts sounded repeatedly, and by the time Wen Qian regained consciousness, it was already the weekend.
[Today's skill refresh - Handmade
For beggars, objects made by themselves are always more reassuring than those bought.
Detailed explanation: Put the materials into the manufacturing column to automatically generate the corresponding props]
The system's prompt sound woke Wen Qian from his sleep.
“…I actually did homework all night!”
The player was shocked by his own efforts. It was unbelievable that there were people in the world who loved learning so much.
You can adjust your sleeping time in the game. Theoretically, as long as you have enough physical strength, you can stay awake all the time.
The side effect is that after the physical strength value drops to zero, you will take a nap anywhere.
The sleep time is also constant. The longer you delay falling asleep, the later you will wake up the next day.
Lying on his little bed, Wen Qian began to worry about today's schedule.
- Should I go out for a stroll and attack the trash cans at the same time, or find a place to conduct a sting operation and use up my last chance to call the police?
It’s such a hard decision!
The system panel that was accidentally opened was shaking in front of his eyes, and the prominent red dot on the screen attracted Wen Qian's attention.
She looked carefully and saw that the column with a small red dot was the "Class Schedule" column.
On the first day of school, after her deskmate handed her the class schedule, this function appeared in the system.
But for players who skip classes as soon as they go to school, there is not much difference between having this function or not.
No class affects her from skipping classes.
But it was different with the little red dot. Wen Qian immediately became alert, turned over and sat up, and opened the [Class Schedule] interface.
In the concise and clear schedule for next week, a slightly prominent course emits a golden light representing the mission.
Computer Programming Analysis - Required Equipment [Computer]
Course Reward: Intelligence Point +1]
The smile that had just appeared because of the new task slowly disappeared.
Wen Qian pondered for a moment: "If I'm not mistaken, you want to give me a computer, right?"
"How can there be such a generous game in the world!"
Players who tried to use praise to awaken the last bit of conscience in the game were only met with long silence without any response.
Xiao Wen also fell silent.
"What do you mean, let me buy it?" she said with difficulty.
Do you know how bankrupt this task is for a player whose profession is a beggar?
The ruthless system just keeps showing its tasks.
The angry player punched the air in a rage of helplessness.
After calming down, Wen Qian was in the mood to carefully study the system's task panel and clicked on [Task Prompt].
A computer is indeed necessary to equip, but it is not strictly required to buy a computer. You can also pass the task by making this item yourself.
It’s a hint, but is it reasonable?
Wen Qian wanted to speak but stopped, and stopped talking again.
What do you mean, rubbing the computer with bare hands, her?
Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, she looked at the [Handmade] skill that had been refreshed this morning.
In the skill bar, there are many props that can be made, and you can even play the game with your bare hands. However, most of the labels are gray - this state will appear when there are not enough materials.
The only item that lights up is the [Iris Bracelet], which can be synthesized with only two irises.
Wen Qian skipped over the iris bracelets and flipped through them one by one, finding her target at the bottom.
【Prop Name——Computer
Materials: Electronic components x 3, sticky resin x 1, bottled dishwashing liquid x 1, white radish x 1]
Wen Qian: "...Can these things be made into computers?"
Are you cooking here?
Wen Qian was half-believing and half-doubting, but had no better solution, so he embarked on a journey to collect materials.
The system's built-in navigation map points out the location of each material, and the virtual map in front of you is densely marked with red dots.
Resin can be seen everywhere, white radish and detergent punctuation appear in the suburbs and vegetable markets and supermarkets, and electronic components are found in the corresponding stores.
Wen Qian curiously clicked on the details and took a look at the price of the electronic components. She was so frightened at the sight that she retreated with trembling hands.
Is this intended to make her empty her wallet? It's so expensive?
She resolutely gave up the idea of purchasing from the store.
Since she couldn't afford domestic electronic components, couldn't she go find some wild ones?
Looking at the scattered but real punctuation marks on the edge of the map, Wen Qian showed a thoughtful expression.
Okay, it’s decided to be you, the abandoned factory in the north of the city!
——————
The land is overgrown with weeds, the abandoned iron gate is covered with rust-red stains, and the sparsely populated factory has become a paradise for wild animals.
The edges of the stacked broken color steel plates are dismantled distribution boxes, and the various sundries piled up into small hills exude a dilapidated and dusty smell.
The young man in a black coat put one hand in his pocket, his dark eyes looking coldly at the group of people walking towards him.
He slowly pulled his hand out, moving his wrist nonchalantly, his fierce brows slightly lowered.
"Who's going first?" Jiang Zhi spoke casually, not even looking at the group of people.
It seems that the wild cats darting out from the roadside are more valuable to watch than these people.
"Jiang Zhi, I thought you were the same young master as before?" The tall man felt a surge of anger in his heart. "Without your father, I wonder what you are capable of!"
He took a step back, looked at the group of people he brought with him, and shouted, "Get started!"
Jiang Zhi raised his eyelids as a response to these words.
It proves that he was indeed listening, but it is hard to say how much he listened to.
The group of people who rushed forward were obviously not satisfied with his reaction, and even their attacks became more violent. Their fiercely swung fists were stopped by someone with one hand.
Jiang Zhi took a step back, frowned as if in disgust, bent his knees and kicked the man fiercely. His expression was cold, but he did not hesitate at all.
Under the heavy blow, the man covered his chest and roared in pain, taking several steps back.
"What? Are you lining up to get beaten up by me?" Jiang Zhi's gaze flickered to the right corner, then he frowned. "Sorry, I don't have that much time to waste with you guys."
The provocative words angered the others present. After looking at each other, several people rushed towards Jiang Zhi at the same time.
The fight outside the factory was in full swing, while Wen Qian inside the factory looked solemn.
What's been calling?
She looked at the iron rod she had picked up casually, her face full of surprise and doubt.
...Is there a ghost?
After arriving at the abandoned factory, she felt like she had arrived in heaven. There were so many good things here!
Players are having a lot of fun picking up a little here and a little there.
Picking up trash is fun!
Following the guidance of the system map, Wen Qian saw the half-exposed detergent shell under the pile of waste items. She quickly turned around and found a stick.
Try to attack the detergent out by attacking the trash can.
And this is exactly the beginning of the strange events.
Wen Qian, who had no idea what was going to happen next, skillfully poked the waste pile with a stick.
A scream came from the scrap pile!
Wen Qian immediately threw the stick to the ground. What the hell was that sound?
Xiao Wen, whose hands were shaking with fear, said: This game has unnatural elements?!
But why is it a scrap heap?
Wen Qian, his mind blank, picked up the stick again and hesitantly hit the pile of waste with it.
There was another scream, and it sounded like a man's voice.
The player is shocked and tries to find out the reason why the scrap pile is screaming by spinning around it.
The cause was unsuccessful.
Wen Qian, who couldn't tell whether this was an Easter egg given by the system or he really saw a ghost, stood in front of the garbage dump, hesitant.
During the two seconds she hesitated, the scream rang out again.
Without the interference of the sound of the iron rod hitting the scrap pile, she clearly heard the source of the sound - it was not the garbage pile in front of her, but the sound coming from behind the iron gate next to the garbage pile.
Wen Qian was relieved but also felt a hint of regret.
I'm glad there are no ghosts, but I'm sorry the scrap pile isn't alive.
If the scrap pile is alive, can she capture a scrap pile and pet it?
A bit weird, but I kind of want it.
Holding his small iron rod, Wen Qian groped his way towards the direction of the sound, bypassing the abandoned color steel plates leaning against the factory building, and saw a group of passionate young people fighting.
It turns out someone is here to arrange a fight.
The players squatting beside the abandoned debris and watching with great interest regarded the scene happening in front of them as a small easter egg for the new map provided by the game.
The plot is well designed, and it complements the desolate atmosphere of the abandoned factory.
The combat power of the two groups is uneven. The boys on this side have maxed out their numerical mechanisms. How can we fight against the group on the opposite side?
She couldn't even win against six against one, and she even despised me when I was sent to pick up trash with her.
After watching for a while, the player, feeling a bit bored, continued to attack the garbage dump.
In the solemn atmosphere, the sound of ping-pong attracted everyone's attention.
Jiang Zhi frowned slightly. He had noticed her existence a long time ago, but he never thought that she would come out at this moment.
He turned sideways expressionlessly, just blocking the gazes of the six people in front of him who were looking at Wen Qian.
The few people who had just been humiliated were already angry. When they saw this person suddenly rushing in and completely ignoring them, they immediately took their anger out on her.
"What are you looking at? You want to die——"
A heavy punch landed on his face, interrupting the curse words he had just finished speaking. The man, unable to control himself, took two steps back, turned his face away and spat out a mouthful of blood-stained saliva.
The player who was concentrating on finding electronic components looked up in confusion. Why did it sound like she was also involved?
Wen Qian looked up hesitantly. Was she going to participate in this plot too?
Seeing the dusty appearance of several people, she withdrew her gaze and thought, forget it, her clothes are quite expensive, so she decided not to participate.
After searching the garbage pile in front of him, Wen Qian walked through the fighting people as if no one was around and headed towards another pile of waste.
When passing by Jiang Zhi, he did not forget to praise him.
"Very impressive, keep it up."
Jiang Zhi raised his eyebrows: "Well, thank you?"
Behind him was a scene of fist-to-flesh fighting, and in front of him was a pile of discarded items with a wide variety of materials. Wen Qian just felt that this place was really lively.
【Pick up [Electronic Component] × 1】
Some people were knocked to the ground and couldn't get up.
Pick up [abandoned detergent bottle] × 1
Someone took two steps back timidly and was scolded by the leader.
[White Radish Obtaining——10%…60%]
Wen Qian never thought that she could actually find a white radish growing on the ground in this field. She rushed towards her target excitedly.
On the way, I accidentally stepped on the arm of the big brother who had not yet gotten up.
"Sorry—" The player hurriedly left, leaving behind an insincere apology.
His dream of pretending to be dead was crushed by one kick.
The man got up in anger and humiliation, cursing and preparing to vent his anger on this ungrateful man, but just as he stood firm, he met Jiang Zhi's half-smile.
Wen Qian no longer paid attention to the people who appeared as background stories. After she collected the materials, she found that there was no movement behind her.
"Are you done fighting?" Wen Qian looked over and saw several people who could barely stand and Jiang Zhi, whose appearance hadn't changed much.
"Do you still want to fight?" Wen Qian looked at Jiang Zhi and pointed at the other six people who were about to leave. "If you don't want to fight anymore, can you leave these people to me?"
Jiang Zhi glanced at her in surprise, then nodded indifferently, "Whatever you want."
After saying this, he stood aside leisurely, as if he wanted to see what Wen Qian was going to do.
Wen Qian looked seriously at the people who were staring at Jiang Zhi, and slowly took out a red button from his pocket.
Pressed it solemnly.
After hearing the conversation between the two, several people who had become wary of Wen Qian due to Jiang Zhi's intimidation felt that they were overthinking it.
Before they could retract their mocking eyes, a speeding police car suddenly appeared behind them.
An old acquaintance with a serious expression got out of the car and fixed his eyes on the six people who looked suspicious at first glance.
Wen Qian said righteously: "Fortunately you came quickly, otherwise my friend and I would have been beaten to death by them!"
"This kind of person who commits so many evil things and bullies men and women is absolutely evil and must not be tolerated in this world!"
Xiao Wen started to add charges to them, hoping to raise the bounty of this group of people to 100+ by using words.
"Really?" The police NPC's face darkened. "You guys, come with me!"
Six people who were beaten from beginning to end, with no chance to fight back:???
Defamation, this is defamation!
"We don't know her at all!" one of them defended himself angrily.
"I hit you even though I don't know you. You are committing an even greater crime!" Wen Qian glared back without blushing or breathing heavily.
That’s great. I thought the last chance to call the police was wasted.
Unexpectedly, someone came rushing over to help her at this time.
There are still many kind-hearted people in this world!
