Chapter 55 Internet Cafe



The small internet cafe in this town is just a small hall with a dozen or so computers placed against the wall.

At this time, the computer screen pixels are relatively dim, so in order to see the screen better, internet cafes will close the doors and windows, leaving only a small door for entry and exit.

When Yuan Mengge went inside, she saw that there were still most of the computer seats available.

It was probably still early, but a lot of people arrived in an hour or two.

At this time, people in internet cafes are basically there to play games or watch TV and movies.

Many only know basic operations, or even none at all, and need their boss to come and help them.

Few people know how to type on a computer, and even fewer know how to touch type.

After Yuan Mengge came in, she found a computer, sat down, and said to the boss's control panel, "Boss, please turn on this computer for me."

The boss was a man in his thirties. He was sitting behind his computer eating a bowl of rice when he heard Yuan Mengge's voice and glanced at her.

He then put down the bowl and replied, "Okay, I'll open it for you now."

As he spoke, he granted access to Yuan Mengge's computer on the switchboard.

As the owner of the only internet cafe in the town, he is quite familiar with most of the customers who come here to use the internet.

Especially the girls, because they come less often, so they will basically all remember them.

Especially at night, there are usually not many girls coming to internet cafes.

He glanced at Yuan Mengge and remembered that the girl had come by yesterday.

I met her yesterday; she was a young girl in her teens, and I thought it was her first time visiting. I was even thinking of teaching her how to use the computer.

Because many first-time customers don't even know how to turn the machine on.

But he saw Yuan Mengge skillfully press the power button on the host and then turn on the monitor. He was slightly surprised, but said nothing.

Then he walked over, stood next to her, and asked, "You look like you know how to use it, right?"

Yuan Mengge humbly replied, "I know how to use the simple operations."

The boss nodded upon hearing this, and then said to her, "If there's anything you don't understand, remember to ask me first, okay?"

He was worried that some customers, who clearly didn't understand, would still mess things up and end up causing problems with the system.

This wasn't the first time he'd encountered this situation; in fact, he'd met quite a few people like this since his internet cafe opened.

But he soon realized that his worries were unnecessary, because he saw that her movements seemed quite skilled, unlike the helpless and bewildered state that newcomers usually have.

He observed for a while and found that Yuan Mengge's operation was very familiar, which gradually put his mind at ease.

Then the boss noticed that she wasn't looking at the keyboard when she was typing, and he was surprised and began to observe her.

Typing without looking at the keyboard? That's more than just being a computer savvy person.

Seeing her fingers nimbly tapping on the keyboard, the shop owner wondered: This young lady is so skilled with computers, does she have a computer at home? Then why is she at an internet cafe?

Yuan Mengge added, "Please drive for me for two hours first, thank you."

As she spoke, she picked up the mouse and opened the browser.

The boss nodded: "Okay, I'll open it for you."

Yuan Mengge searched online for housing prices in the provincial capital, and then searched for housing prices in Shenzhen and Guangzhou.

Although computers existed at that time, the internet was not as developed, and much information could not be found online.

Information about big cities is available, but it's much harder to find information about smaller towns.

However, that's relative to others. Yuan Meng, the singer, has a system that can connect to the computer she uses.

After the system was connected, the computer's network speed immediately increased to 8G.

Yuan Mengge was unfamiliar with this era, but fortunately there were still internet cafes at this time, so she could go online to look things up.

The boss kept glancing at her while eating.

I observed her yesterday and confirmed that she is someone who knows how to use a computer.

Because she can even type using the Wubi input method!

In this era before everyone used computers, Wubi typing was not something ordinary people knew how to do.

Yuan Mengge sat in front of the computer researching information and reading news, and more than an hour passed before she knew it.

At this time, more and more customers started coming to the internet cafe, and people would come in from the side door from time to time to ask the owner to turn on the computer.

Yuan Mengge had her back to the door, but she heard a voice.

"Boss, turn on two machines."

Upon hearing the voice, Yuan Mengge's spirits lifted, but she didn't turn around; she merely rolled her eyes.

She recognized the voice; it was the voice of that scoundrel, Huang Jiazhong.

After discovering that Huang Jiazhong had also come to use the internet, she sat quietly, relying on the footsteps behind her to determine where they were sitting.

Fortunately, it wasn't a machine in her row, otherwise I would have seen her.

She silently took the earphones and put them on, but didn't turn on the sound.

After Huang Jiazhong and another person sat down, they turned on the computer and started playing.

Yuan Mengge turned off the computer screen, glanced behind her to make sure they were all looking at the computer, and then turned around and gave them a quiet look.

The system did not provide any task prompts, which means that none of the people present had any intention of committing a crime or wanting to commit a crime.

Yuan Mengge wanted to take the initiative to deal with Huang Jiazhong, but she didn't have the opportunity.

It was already dark when Yuan Mengge was quietly surfing the internet when suddenly a dog barked outside the door.

"Woof! Woof woof woof! Roar roar roar—"

Suddenly, the system notified: [Five meters outside the door, target male, 20 years old, 29 theft attempts, 15 successful. He is currently stealing the host's bicycle.]

Upon hearing this, Yuan Mengge immediately removed her earring, stood up abruptly, and rushed out.

As soon as I went outside, I saw Duoduo barking at a man who was taking the lock off her bicycle: "Woof woof woof! Woof—hoohoohoo—"

Yuan Mengge ran over in a few steps and kicked him in mid-air.

She was so fast that the thief didn't even have time to react before he felt a figure flash by and was kicked to the ground.

After kicking him, Yuan Mengge pointed at him and shouted, "You stole a bicycle, didn't you?"

The man quickly got up, turned around, and tried to run away.

"Trying to run?" Yuan Mengge had already anticipated his escape, and the moment he got up, she rushed over with a sweeping kick.

Before the thief could run even a step, she kicked him to the ground again.

She shouted, and everyone in the computer room immediately rushed to the door to peek and see what was going on. They saw her pounce on a man lying on the ground, grab his arm, twist it, and pin him behind his back.

People from other shops nearby also came over to take a look, and because of her shout, they all understood what had happened.

The boss ran out and stared in disbelief as Yuan Mengge pinned a young man to the ground.

Yuan Mengge: "Boss, do you have any rope?"
