Chapter 7 Chapter 7 404 Convenience Store 7
At this moment, the four players were thinking about the rules.
According to Article 1 of the Convenience Store Employee Code of Conduct.
1.404 convenience stores have a strict shelf organization; there are no "invisible shelves."
Assuming that the entry rule is true and correct, then they must continue to play dumb and not admit that there are "invisible shelves" in the store. The current situation is likely to continue to be deadlocked.
All you have to do is look outside and you’ll see eerie figures standing outside the door and window of the 404 convenience store, looking into the store through the clear glass windows.
But if, on the other hand, this rule is "wrong", will they sell things to these weirdos outside?
No, that's not right!
The bald man's thoughts stopped, and the shelf at this moment seemed like Schrödinger's shelf.
From the player's perspective, the shelves are invisible.
But in these strange eyes, the shelves are clearly visible.
The employee code of conduct is aimed at employees, so from the perspective of their current employees, the first rule is correct!
Then, employees must firmly implement this.
I can't admit it, so I keep playing dumb!
"Little friend, there is nothing here that you want." The bald man repeated firmly again.
"It's obviously there, it's obviously there!" the little boy shouted.
Nie Ke looked at the strange person standing outside and her scalp felt numb.
The number of customers received by the entire 404 convenience store tonight is probably not as large as the strange number gathered outside now.
Is this the ultimate move of the copy?
Will they attack?
What exactly is on the "invisible shelf"? What's so weird about it?
Is it something needed for weirdness, or is it something that players can also use?
Liang Ping's eyes flickered, but no matter how he looked at the bread shelf, to him, it was just a display of various kinds of bread.
Otherwise, why not use your weird hands to see what is being sold on the shelf?
"What's going on?"
Luo Qing came out of the lounge. She probably caught a cold from opening the window when she took a nap at night and had a stomachache.
As soon as I came out of the bathroom, I saw several colleagues gathered at the door through the surveillance camera in the lounge.
Not only them, there are many other guests waiting.
After checking the time, Luo Qing understood what was going on.
After midnight on the same day, this group of people are not customers, but people who want to get expired or near-expiring products for free.
Like ordinary private convenience stores, some will give them out if they are allowed to. The 404 convenience store was also allowed to distribute these products in the past, but some problems happened later, so expired and near-expiry products must be destroyed in a unified manner and must not be given out.
One is that they are afraid that something might go wrong and they will come back to take responsibility, and the other is that there are those who specialize in “fighting against counterfeits” and claim that they have eaten the product and taken it away, and then they report it.
If any expired goods were to be sold tonight, regardless of whether anything happened or someone came to cause trouble, they might not even get their wages for their part-time work tonight.
Luo Qing was afraid that her colleagues would not be able to cope with the situation, so she walked quickly to the door. Nie Ke saw her as if he had found his backbone, and immediately whispered to her about the current situation.
"What are you all doing here? If you want to buy something, go inside. If not, it's the middle of the night and you should get some rest."
Luo Qing's voice was so loud that it seemed as if all the weird people standing outside waiting could hear it.
Nie Ke keenly discovered that these strange things really did not enter the convenience store!
Including the little boy standing on the steps. When Baldy first asked it, the child could obviously run to the convenience store and point out what he wanted, but it didn't!
It can't come in?
No, it shouldn't be like this.
It's "can't say"! Nie Ke understood. Whether it was the bald brother or Sister Luo Qing, neither of them mentioned what "that" was.
If you don't admit it, don't say it out loud, it seems that these weird things won't be able to get in. So even though this kid's weird thing looks so anxious, and there are still so many weird things surrounding the store, they haven't caused any harm to the players yet.
But if they were scared when they were surrounded, or directly acknowledged the "invisible shelf", the situation would probably be completely different. So many weird things would enter the convenience store, and it is unknown what kind of chaos it would cause.
Nie Ke covered her mouth at this moment, fortunately she did not speak nonsense.
But despite what Luo Qing said, several people still gathered outside the convenience store, watching these strange things.
Ren Shumei spoke up at this moment: "Does our current situation comply with the seventh rule?"
"It's okay as long as they don't come in." said the bald man.
"Rule seven talks about unsolvable problems. If we report this to the group's central control center as stated above, our evaluation at the end of the night will definitely be low."
Article 7 of the Employee Code of Conduct——
7. If you encounter any unresolvable difficulties, please report them to the group control center in a timely manner and professional staff will rush to handle them.
This rule seems to be one that allows "seeking help on the field". The rule-based copies that Baldy had made before also had similar conditions.
The rules are true, and you can indeed ask the weird to help, but the evaluation of that copy will be extremely low after using it, and whether it is help or disposal, there will be a certain price to pay.
"Then shall we continue like this? What if more customers come later?" Liang Ping was worried. He had no confidence in dealing with so many weird things outside.
But they are just standing outside watching closely and can't relax for a moment.
"Don't worry about it. They just left because they got bored." Luo Qing waved his hand and said.
She just heard a few temporary colleagues seriously discussing the contents of the employee code of conduct and almost couldn't hold back her laughter.
There are not so many answers in life that can be followed exactly. Even if there are some people outside asking for things, they will not force their way in. It is not worth reporting such a small matter to the group.
When doing things, it is important to be flexible. Of course, hard rules must be followed strictly, but some rules don't matter.
She stood at the door and looked at the faces outside. They were all unfamiliar and did not look like residents near Ping'an Home.
I think they must have known that there was a new 404 convenience store opened here, so they came here specifically at midnight to try their luck, but they ended up getting bored. After a while, when they found nothing, they dispersed and went to find other stores.
If you have worked in a convenience store, you will learn to be cruel. You should refuse when you should refuse, and not give when you should not give. Otherwise, your kindness will easily be taken advantage of.
Luo Qing's tone was firm, as if she had anticipated what was happening. The bald man saw that she looked thoughtful. Liang Ping didn't say anything. Nie Ke returned to the cashier with great confidence.
The bald man looked at the electronic clock in the convenience store. The weird people outside the door stayed in a stalemate for fifteen minutes before leaving one by one.
Several people then breathed a sigh of relief, "They really didn't come in and left just now."
"Let's go to the next place." Luo Qing said casually.
As the night progresses, the convenience store has fewer customers. Only around five o'clock does Ren Shumei, who is in charge of the fresh food area, start preparing fresh food in advance.
Although the shift can be handed over at six o'clock and the copy is over, the work of making fresh food still needs to be done.
The soy milk maker only needs to add soy milk powder, and the color of the soy milk powder is normal.
only--
When I press the button on the soymilk maker, three cups of soymilk are dispensed simultaneously, each with a greenish, dark grey, and reddish brown color. They are completely different from normal soymilk.
Ren Shumei silently counted in her mind, mung bean soy milk, black sesame soy milk, red date and red bean soy milk, and put the lids into bags one by one.
Regardless of whether it is true or not, she believed it first.
Then she took out the buns from the frozen plastic box. Each bun was about the size of a fist. She put the buns of various colors into the steamer with an expressionless face.
Vegetable juice peels, dragon fruit peels, they are all vegetable and fruit peels, and vegetable and fruit peels are all normal.
Only by repeating this in her mind constantly could Ren Shumei prevent her thoughts from wandering and brainwashing herself.
As the time got closer to six o'clock, Luo Qing yawned. She hadn't stayed up late for a long time. Even though she had taken a nap last night, she was still sleepy.
She yawned twice, checked the time, and then looked at her other colleagues. Wow, are they all so energetic?
The bald man stared at the door with sharp eyes, as did Liang Ping, and Nie Ke's eyes kept darting back and forth.
Luo Qing thought about it, hoping to get off work quickly! Their night shift was a full nine hours long, which was really exhausting.
Next time she looks for a part-time job, she won’t look for a night shift. She hasn’t stayed up late for a long time and feels a little overwhelmed.
Five fifteen, five thirty, five forty-seven in the morning... Time passed by minute by minute. Nie Ke counted down in his mind, not daring to say anything. Some strange customers came into the convenience store, but they looked like they were in a hurry to get up early, and did not come to make trouble.
"It's six o'clock in the morning—"
Ren Shumei took a deep breath. It's over! This instance of the dungeon is over!
A copy reminder appeared on the player's phone along with the time signal.
[Congratulations to player Ren Shumei, you have completed the nine-hour night shift at the 404 convenience store. Do you want to leave the dungeon immediately?]
The bald man had already taken off the convenience store apron on his body, as if he couldn't wait a moment.
It was the first time that Nie Ke received the news that the copy had been passed. She looked at the message on her mobile phone and was still a little overwhelmed.
Has this passed? Does this mean you survived?
She also took off her apron like her predecessors, walked out of the checkout area, and suddenly turned to look at Luo Qing.
"Sister Luo Qing, what was that favor you asked us to help you with?"
Sister Luo Qing took the initiative to "deliver takeout" and they owed her a favor. Nie Ke brought it up quickly while everyone was around to avoid others getting angry and denying it.
Hearing Nie Ke's words, Luo Qing was stunned. She touched her apron and trouser pockets, but they were empty.
Oh no, she changed her clothes earlier and her agency business card was left in that set of clothes. No, she didn’t bring her business card with her when she left home.
Damn it, her brain! Luo Qing felt regretful.
"Oh, it's nothing serious. I just wanted to ask if you guys are living in the unified dormitory or somewhere else now. If you need a place to rent, you can contact me and spread the word."
Luo Qing felt a little embarrassed to let someone rent a room at his place just for a part-time colleague for one night.
"Come on, let's go. You all look so tired. I'll go get my clothes from the lounge."
"Sister Luo Qing, are you renting houses to players?" Nie Ke asked.
"That should be it. I've seen people on the forum before wanting to build player apartments. After all, players who enter strange dungeons will always be noticed by people around them. The official side does have special player living areas, commonly known as dormitories, but there are more rules." said the bald man.
"Most players still live at home. As long as they don't reveal their identities, they are living the life of ordinary people. It's not easy to come back alive from the weird copy. Living an ordinary life is a very happy thing." Ren Shumei said.
"Let's go. We must get out within five minutes, otherwise we will be left behind." The bald man called out to a few people. This time, all five people survived, with a survival rate of 100%, which was enough to cause an uproar in the forum.
Nie Ke wanted to say more, but was pulled back by the bald man.
"You have a limited time to leave the dungeon, hurry up."
Luo Qing obviously wanted to stay for other purposes, so they should not get in the way here.
Liang Ping followed the bald man, seemingly going out together, and walked to the gathering point in front of the convenience store.
He watched the other three players disappear at the same time and turned back into the convenience store.
He didn't leave. He wanted to see what the female player Luo Qing was going to do!
A gleam of light flashed in Liang Ping's eyes. If he guessed correctly, this female player named Luo Qing was not an ordinary veteran player who had completed a few dungeons.
Luo Qing is a special player who enters this dungeon for the second time with a special purpose - the Adventer!
