Chapter 453 1 Accidentally Became an Experience School
Chapter 453 Accidentally Became an Experience School
"So you earn 2000 million when you go out for a meal?"
At home, He Xiao and Zhang Ya were sitting on the sofa drinking tea, and after hearing his story, the Queen of Heaven couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
A meal of 2000 million yuan is really not something that ordinary people can do.
"Well, anyway, I have nothing to do now. Compared to running a business and acting in a variety show, it's more cost-effective to film with Liu Haibo."
In fact, He Xiao agreed to film, although it was a whim, but also after careful consideration.
After all, the money earned from running a commercial show is really not as much as filming, and the styles of the two are also different. One is to perform for local rich money, and the other is to appear on the big screen in a theater. Needless to say, which one is more promising .
In addition, this invitation was proposed by Liu Haibo, and it was the second time he invited He Xiao. If he refused again, it would be too disrespectful to others. This is called ignorance.
Zhang Ya never interfered with any of He Xiao's decisions, and always maintained a supportive attitude. At this time, she smiled slightly and said softly: "Okay, if you think you can, just let go and do it. If you need anything, just talk to me."
Although Zhang Ya has never acted before, she is not a fool in the entertainment industry for nothing. She knows a lot of friends with superb acting skills, and may be able to help He Xiao, a novice actor, that's why she said this.
"Thank you for supporting every decision I make."
He Xiao knew all this in his heart, and a touch of emotion welled up in his heart. He scratched Zhang Ya's little nose, and thanked her with eyes full of love.
In fact, He Xiao is not in a hurry to improve his acting skills. He doesn't have many roles this time, he is just a supporting role. It is estimated that all the scenes are added together, and it only lasts about 15 minutes.
His biggest idea is to take this opportunity to go to the real set to see what kind of scene it is, how the actors and actresses perform so well, and how Liu Haibo directs.
After all, the largest filming set he had been in contact with before was only the MV scene of "Old Boy".
And all his knowledge about acting was learned from that half-baked director of Le Jia, Huang Jun. Huang Jun's professional knowledge is limited. Compared with it, it is simply a thousand miles away.
So He Xiao is very interested in the real set, the real director, and the real acting.
Of course, it would be even better if he could perform better in this drama. After all, no one wants to be just a vase who doesn't understand anything.
Acting is all about talent.
Experience, life, and experience only account for a small half of the factors. In the world of black phones, there are many artists who have developed both in the music industry and the film industry. When they switch from it, most of them are amazingly talented. As an actor, he directly won the Golden Horse Best Actor.
Can this fucking be called talent?
Acting is too talented!
He Xiao's talent is good. When he participated in the variety show "Ace vs. Ace", he once got Ren Ke from actor Liao Yuan, but He Xiao knew very well that in that small test, he actually took a shortcut.
At that time, the program group asked the guests to imitate the scenes of the classic movie "Romance on Lushan Mountain". The expressions on the screen were copied directly, which is why he won such high affirmation from the actor Liao Yuan.
If there is no "Love in Lushan Mountain" in the black phone, He Xiao can really let He Xiao play by himself, and he will definitely not be able to do so well.
Therefore, He Xiao's talent in acting can only be said to be slight, and it is not comparable to those legendary characters in the black phone. Now that he wants to improve his acting skills, from a novice to an actor, he can only rely on redoubled efforts .
"Go to bed first, I'm reading the script."
Seeing that Zhang Ya was a little sleepy, He Xiao asked her to sleep first, so he didn't have to wait for him. He was now feeling novel about acting, and he couldn't fall asleep even after the novelty hadn't passed.
"Okay, you should go to bed early too." Zhang Ya nodded, and didn't bother He Xiao too much, because she knew that the most important way for couples to get along is to give each other private space.
……
outside the window.
The night is getting darker.
Zhang Ya had already rested, He Xiao sat on the sofa, lit a lamp by himself, and was flipping through the script very carefully.
"How about...write a character biography?"
He Xiao suddenly thought of closing the script that he had read no less than three times.
A character biography is an important preparation for an actor before acting. Liang Jiahui in the black phone once wrote a [-]-word biography for the character, just to figure out the character's life, quickly substitute, and enter the state.
He Xiao has never written a biography, but he can write novels, and the most important point is that the role Liu Haibo gave him is an Internet writer in the play, which just overlaps with his reality, so for He Xiao himself In other words, the sense of substitution is very strong, and the biography of the characters is naturally much easier to write.
After taking out the black phone to check the time, He Xiao casually put it aside, then took out a notepad and a black pen, and began to think about where to start writing.
Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the bright moonlight quietly hid in the darkness at some point. The whole world was completely silent, and it was extremely quiet. It seemed that He Xiao was the only one left in the whole community.
He picked up the pen, and wrote the character's life according to the idea in his mind. He was writing hard, but he didn't notice that the black mobile phone seemed to emit some faint light, and then He Xiao's pupils began to disappear unconsciously. Focused, and finally passed out on the couch.
……
……
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
There was a hasty, savage knock on the door, which made him very unhappy in his sleep.
The whole person turned over and sat up from the bed, scratching his messy hair, which was no different from a bird's nest, his eyes were sleepy, and he pushed open the door with some wobbly walking.
"What are you pretending to be dead! Will you pay the rent? How many days have you owed?"
Outside the door was an obese woman with a big round face and a rosy nose. She belonged to the type who would still look unattractive even if she lost weight. At this time, she was shaking her arm as thick as a small tree trunk to face him inside the door. Pointing at the nose and cursing.
"Why am I here?"
There was a bit of bewilderment on his sleepy face, because he remembered that he was obviously a big star that everyone was looking at. He had just appeared in the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, and even negotiated a 2000 million contract, but what happened now?
Oh yes, it was a dream,
It must be a dream.
"I'm sorry, landlord, I'm sleepless. If you give me a few more days, I will definitely pay the rent."
He seemed to recognize the identity of the fat woman in front of him, and the expression on his face began to change, from the initial blankness, to a flattering expression, with his hands clasped on his chest, begging non-stop.
"Okay, I'll give you the last three days, if you can't afford it, pack up and get out!"
The fat woman gave him a very disgusted look, as if looking at an annoying fly, then turned around, twisted her not-enchanting figure, and left enchantingly.
When the door was closed, the man leaned limply behind the door like a ball that had exhausted all his energy, and looked at the ceiling with bewildered eyes.
His name is He Xiao, and he is 28 years old. He is a lazy bug who fantasizes that one day he can make money by writing. He lives in one of the tens of thousands of basements in the capital every day.
Whenever someone asked him about his job, he would say he was a writer, but in fact he hadn't even published a book, and he was just nestling in the basement of less than [-] square meters every day with nothing to do.
As for why not looking for a serious job?
To put it bluntly, he is pretentious. He always feels that he is not an ordinary person and will become a great talent in the future. He despises ordinary jobs, but the fact is that he only has a high school degree, knows nothing, and can mess up even the smallest things. Worked as a waiter at McDonald's and was fired in less than three months.
I haven't touched a job since then, and now rely on some petty theft to eke out a living.
Panting, He Xiao stood up from the ground, glanced at the room full of rubbish and nowhere to stay, and walked out on tiptoe.
When I came to the bathroom, sewage and dirty things were all over the floor, and the mirror on the sink was already covered with something sticky, so I could barely see the scene inside.
Reflected on it is a man about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a smelly denim jacket, with a thick beard and shoulder-length hair.
Growing a beard is not for the sexiness of a man, but because he lives a sloppy life and is too lazy to deal with it. His long hair is not the so-called artist's feelings, but he simply has no money to go to the barber shop.
He once thought about cutting it off by himself without scissors, but later thought that relying on his own craftsmanship, he might only make him look more like a fool after cutting it.
Turning on the faucet and washing his face perfunctorily, he came to his workbench.
A broken table left by the landlord, and a second-hand dilapidated laptop from ten years ago.
The computer has not been used for a few years, the hard disk, CPU, and graphics card are seriously degraded, and it takes a long time to start up. There is no software installed in it, only the writing tool Word document that comes with the pirated system.
As usual, he opened the Word interface, and there were two lines of words that read fluently, which he wrote in three days.
"It's been the last three days, and today I must write [-] words, and then sign a contract with the website, so that the landlord's stinky fat pig will look at me with admiration."
He Xiao sits in front of the computer and talks to himself vigorously. At first it sounds very passionate and inspirational, but in fact he says this sentence to himself every day.
And the result is naturally that day after day, year after year, he still hasn't made any achievements.
Today is exactly the same as yesterday. After he finished saying this, he stared at the Word interface in a daze, then clicked his toes, read the newspaper, went to the bathroom to squat at noon, and lay on the sofa to watch TV for a while in the afternoon. .
"Hold!"
At night, he looked at the blank computer interface and couldn't help but cursed fiercely. It seemed that this was the only thing he could do.
"Maybe staying at home has no inspiration, so I should go out for a walk."
He thought so comfortingly.
Putting on the only jacket that looked clean, he took out half a bottle of pirated blue wind chime perfume bought for ten yuan from the drawer, and sprayed it on his body repeatedly to cover up his stink. go out.
Outside the basement is a small street that is not very wide and has no rules. There are many small vendors setting up stalls here every day, which belongs to the area where no one cares.
After He Xiao came out, he skillfully walked an apple on the donkey that sells fruit, put it in his mouth without washing it, and gnawed it, um, it was so sweet.
Drilling out of the alley, there are countless high-rise buildings in front of you.
The capital city at night is undoubtedly charming, full of temptations of luxury and luxury, he is like a lonely ghost, wandering aimlessly on the street, as if out of tune with this noisy world.
"I'm stupid, isn't this a joke? How did you get into such a bad manner?"
Sometimes people are like this. When they are most frustrated, they can always meet their former friends, just like a girl who puts on delicate makeup and goes out without a single handsome guy. Every time you take out the trash, you can run into the squad leader you have a crush on.
"Ajiu, long time no see."
Standing in front of He Xiao's face is Xu Shengjiu, the son of a bitch, who is the younger brother of his ex-girlfriend, and is a gangster.
Yes, He Xiao once had a girlfriend.
He was ignorant when he was in school, and he dated a girlfriend for six years, and both of them reached the point of discussing marriage, but in the end, because He Xiao was really unmotivated, and the woman's family disagreed, the matter was blown away. up.
Later, I heard that she found a new boyfriend who had a car and a house half a year after they separated, and the two got married in a flash.
After so many years, He Xiao never inquired about their family affairs, but he never expected to run into his "former brother-in-law" today.
"How are you doing recently? Are you still writing novels?" Xu Shengjiu gave He Xiao a cigarette and asked with a smile.
When He Xiao saw this cigarette, he couldn't move, because it was a Chinese cigarette.
It seems that the dog-like brother-in-law in front of him is doing well.
After taking a sip, He Xiao said not to be outdone, "Well, I'm writing, the editor just gave me a recommended position yesterday, and I guess I can earn five or six thousand manuscript fees a day after I get on it."
"Heh... let's go, have a drink or two?" Xu Shengjiu stared at him up and down, not trying to expose his braggadocio, and stretched out a hand to invite him to drink.
He Xiao naturally readily agreed, it would be great for him to have a meal.
Following the ex-girlfriend's younger brother into a high-end restaurant, the two found a seat by the window and sat down, and then He Xiao started his eloquent speech.
It's nothing more than how many words I wrote today, how much manuscript fees I earned, and how many thousands of copyrights I sold.
Xu Shengjiu didn't speak, just listened quietly, and after a long time, he smiled and said, "You don't have to be like me, really."
"It's okay if you're not with my sister. I've already seen it. You two are not in the same way. You and I are in the same way."
"Listen, it's not shameful to be doing well now. You don't need to hide your shortcomings. When you succeed, you will find that you are ridiculous."
Xu Shengjiu showed off his expensive suit and luxury watch, and said, "Look at me, is the life you dream of living? If you want it too, I can help you, and you can get it at your fingertips."
He Xiao stared straight at the luxury watch on Xu Shengjiu's wrist. He was a little moved by the words, but immediately shook his head, "I'm cowardly, and I can't do your underworld business."
He deeply knows who this little brother-in-law is, he is less educated than him, and wanders around the edge of darkness all year round. If he is a bug to this world, then Xu Shengjiu is a moth.
Although they are all insects, they are far from each other.
Seeing that He Xiao was worried about this, Xu Shengjiu burst out laughing. He pursed his lips and didn't refute immediately. Instead, after looking left and right, he took out a small white pill from his pocket and put it on the table.
"Eat it and you'll have it all."
The small pill in front of me looked a bit strange, like cold medicine, but it had a different pattern printed on it, saying "NZT".
"what is this?"
He Xiao stared blankly for a moment, then thought of something bad, and quickly shook his head, "I don't smoke that stuff."
"It's not what you think. It's a regular medicine. It can develop the potential of the human body and make your brain develop to [-]%. It is the latest technology in the United States and has a certificate." Put the business card in front of him together, and then smiled confidently: "Trust me, you will fall in love with it soon, and also, if you need it, you can call me."
After finishing speaking, Xu Shengjiu winked at him, turned and left the restaurant.
He was left alone by the window, staring at the pill in a daze.
No matter how bad the ending of life is, how bad will it be?
Anyway, it has already become like this dog, huh.
He took a look at the small pill, and finally swallowed it into his mouth with an attitude of giving it a try.
There is no smell, and there is no abnormality in the body, but the scene in front of him seems to have changed. I don't know if it is due to an illusion, but it is even wider.
Looking down at the palm of his hand, He Xiao felt that he was as light as a swallow, with a clear mind and eyesight.
"When did you care about me? You only have yourself in your eyes!"
"Calm down, this is a restaurant."
"Do you know that I'm under a lot of pressure now, but you can't help me at all. You only know how to play games all day long, what a waste!"
"Okay, I'm a useless person, right? Then you can find someone who is not a useless person to go there!"
"..."
The sound of quarreling came from next to his ears, He Xiao turned around and looked, it was a young couple at the next table.
What are they arguing about?
Strangely, He Xiao's first reaction was not to watch the excitement, but to think about the problem.
His observation ability seems to be sharper than before, because he clearly noticed the corner of the book page protruding from the girl's backpack. Although there is only one word "Lv" on it for him to see, He Xiao also deduced that this is A law book.
Combined with the girl's attire and not very old age, this should be a trainee lawyer who has just stepped into society.
And that boy, wearing sportswear, wearing Armani in his hand, and a pair of AJs on his feet, is wearing a light luxury trendy brand, but his mobile phone is still an outdated iPhone7. male.
All the information acquisition and analysis were completed in an instant, but He Xiao was not surprised at all, as if these were the skills he should have had in the first place.
The boys and girls quarreled more and more fiercely, and finally the boy left angrily, leaving the girl sulking in the restaurant alone.
He Xiao picked up the unfinished foreign wine on his table, shook it gently, and sat in front of her.
"What are you worrying about? When you encounter a case that you don't know, just ask the seniors if it's okay?"
It can be clearly felt that after He Xiao opened his mouth, the girl's expression froze for a moment.
"what are you saying?"
"Being a lawyer is inherently a stressful profession, and you should understand this when you take the bar exam."
He Xiao ignored the girl's question and finished speaking on his own. It was obvious that the girl was completely attracted by him as soon as he said those words.
"How do you know this? Are you following me?" But attraction is attraction, she still maintained full caution when facing a stranger.
He Xiao shrugged, "There's no need to follow, your features are very obvious, almost written on your face."
In the following conversation, He Xiao was eloquent, explaining all his analysis with reason and evidence, and the girl was stunned at the beginning, but her eyes started to shine, as if she had seen something unbelievable Same.
In the end, the girl completely let go of her guard against He Xiao, and began to confide in her heart, explaining what upset her. It turned out that she had encountered a difficult case. If she could assist other lawyers to complete this case, she would have the opportunity to apply for regularization next month. , and his boyfriend is a fool who only knows how to play games all day long, never sharing the pressure for her, and today he quarreled over a trivial matter, so he developed into what he is now.
"A tricky case? Let's hear it."
"You still understand this?"
"know a little."
He Xiao is not a lawyer, he doesn't even have a job, but he knows that he is not trying to be brave at this time, because he can clearly recall every day in his nearly 30 years of life in his mind.
There are countless books a person has read in his life, but most of them have been forgotten. For example, when he was five years old, when he went to a bookstore to buy comics, he casually flipped through other books on the shelf and glanced at them in a hurry. Your eyes have seen the content, and your brain has accepted it, but you subconsciously choose to ignore it, so naturally you can't remember the content.
But at this moment, He Xiao can recall every word of the books he has read in his half life, and everything he has seen, so a mere lawyer's case is naturally nothing to be afraid of.
The final result was that He Xiao easily solved the troubles that troubled her, and they chatted happily. He Xiao was like an omniscient detective, and every word he said could whet the girl's appetite. The two of them moved from the restaurant to the hotel naturally.
It wasn't until after ten o'clock in the evening that he returned to his basement clutching his waist.
Pushing open the door, what greeted his eyes was the mess that he saw every day, but today He Xiao was particularly disgusted, with a sense of disgust from the bottom of his heart.
How can this be my room?
How can this be my room?
He seemed to be on fire in his heart, wishing to burn this place down immediately, but his reason didn't allow him to do so.
Putting on the gloves, He Xiao started to clean from inside to outside. The small basement with only [-] square meters finally looked brand new after an hour. Although the furniture was still tattered, it was neat and clean.
Sitting at the computer desk, looking at the spotless home in front of him, he finally felt at ease.
The most important thing is that he feels that he is still in very good condition without any fatigue.
So, this time, he turned his eyes on the computer, turned his mind slightly, and countless inspirations burst out, which he couldn't stop.
He knew what he was going to write.
Putting both hands on the keyboard, He Xiao entered the focus mode. For five hours, he didn't slip away once. This was completely impossible and unthinkable in the past.
Five hours later, the [-]-word manuscript was neatly placed on the computer, and He Xiao still didn't feel the slightest fatigue. He felt like a god, omnipotent.
After saving the manuscript, He Xiao uploaded it to the novel website in batches. If he passed the test, he will receive a signing notice from the website tomorrow. After the signing is successful, there will be a cash reward of 2000 yuan.
Looking back at the clock, it was already three o'clock in the morning in the middle of the night. Although he was not sleepy yet, there was a voice in his heart telling him that it was time to sleep.
Lying on the bed, the mobile phone was placed beside the bed, but He Xiaoqu didn't touch it, didn't even look at it, there was only one word in his head, sleep.
This night when he didn't play with his mobile phone, He Xiao slept very soundly. He thought that this state would last until the next day.
It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when he opened his eyes. He turned over and felt that his body was still very lazy, and he didn't want to move. He just lay there for another hour before getting up.
Sitting on the bed, without making a quilt, I took out my socks from the cabinet, smelled them a bit sour, and threw them on the wall, then sat in front of the computer without brushing my teeth or washing my face, wanting to Continue to code words, looking at the Word that has already written half of the story yesterday, but I just can’t remember how to write the following text that I conceived yesterday.
One hour.
Two hours.
He Xiao let himself go, without moving a word.
He was back to his old self.
"It's the medicine."
Fortunately, he was not completely confused. After sitting on the chair for a long time, he decided to go to Xu Shengjiu. No matter what method he used, begging or part-time job, he must get another "NZT".
According to the address on the business card, He Xiao came to an apartment located in a remote area around the capital, and then found the house number.
Standing in front of the door, He Xiao was thinking about what to say, when suddenly, the door was completely opened from the inside.
Xu Shengjiu was wearing a nightgown, his face was bloodstained and decadent, but he looked at him as if he had expected it: "Haha, I knew you would come."
"Close the door."
He laughed out loud like crazy, then stopped suddenly, turned and went back to the apartment, He Xiao was frightened by him, so he could only close the door at a loss.
"You took the medicine and want more?"
Xu Shengjiu sat on the sofa, playing with a glass of red wine in his palm, and said as if he was telling the truth.
He Xiao knew that he must have taken "NZT", so he was not surprised by his cleverness, so he nodded and begged, "Ajiu, as long as you give me that medicine, I can do anything."
"You can do anything? Hahahaha, do you know how much that medicine costs? 8000 yuan a pill! Where are you worth 8000 yuan?" Xu Shengjiu stood up and poked him in the face as if he had heard some funny joke: " Do you really think of yourself as an onion? Let me tell you the truth. I gave you medicine for free yesterday to test the effect. To put it bluntly, you are a guinea pig. Do you understand the medicine? There is no certificate for the medicine at all. Smuggled from America!"
Xu Shengjiu is not afraid of He Xiao being angry at all, because he knows that the other party has been deeply fascinated after tasting the medicine, and if he wants to get more medicine, he can only obey him.
The fact is indeed the case, He Xiao didn't speak, just listened to him scolding, when enough scolding, Xu Shengjiu lit a cigarette, handed him 200 yuan, and asked him to go out and buy some food to bring back.
He Xiao didn't know if he couldn't order takeaway because he had some shady things, or if he just wanted to sneak away. He only knew that he had no choice, so he obediently followed suit.
He Xiao packed rice and stir-fried vegetables at the restaurant, and He Xiao returned to the apartment half an hour later. What surprised him was that the door was not closed tightly.
He pushed it away lightly in surprise, and saw that the room was pitch black. He froze slightly, pressed the wall light switch, and then saw Xu Shengjiu sitting on the sofa with his back to him.
"I bought fish-flavored shredded pork. I don't know if you like it or not."
He Xiao walked over cautiously, and when he walked around the sofa, a scene that shocked him appeared.
Xu Shengjiu had a knife stuck in his chest.
he died!
During the half hour he left, someone broke in and killed Xu Shengjiu, and there were obvious signs of being turned over in the room.
He Xiao was very scared, very scared.
He didn't know if the murderer had left or not. After his ass fell to the ground in fright, he kept backing away until his back was leaning against the wall, and then he slowly stood up.
"I have nothing to do with this person, it's useless for you to kill me!"
After a short period of fear, He Xiao tried to communicate with the unknown gangster, but after a long time, no one in the room responded, and it seemed that the murderer had already left.
After confirming his own safety, He Xiao hurriedly took out his mobile phone and started to call the police. He didn't dare to leave the murder scene for fear of being defined as a suspect after leaving.
After finishing the phone call and confirming that there were no criminals in the room, He Xiao shrank in the corner and slowly regained his senses.
then……
He thought of a very crucial question.
Why did the gangsters come to kill Xu Shengjiu?
Or what is it about Xu Shengjiu, a **** scum, that attracts the attention of gangsters?
The answer is only - "NZT".
So did he find it?
Looking at the messy apartment that had been turned over in front of him, He Xiao chose not to.
That being the case... a bold idea was crazily brewing in his mind, he hardly hesitated, ran to the kitchen to put on rubber gloves to ensure that no fingerprints would be left, and then began to rummage through boxes and cabinets, and picked out the criminals who did not rummage through. Search where you have been.
Even under the temptation of "NZT", he touched Xu Shengjiu's body all over.
Got nothing!
Is that the last "NZT"?
Or did he not keep it at home?
Impossible, such an important thing, where can it be placed if it is not at home.
He Xiao tried to calm himself down, because the police car was coming soon, and there was not much time left for him.
Suddenly, he saw shredded fish-flavored pork on the ground.
Xu Shengjiu has a kitchen at home, but he asked himself to buy food, which only means that the kitchen cannot be used, or... there are important things in the kitchen!
With light in his eyes, He Xiao rushed to the kitchen like crazy and began to search. Sure enough, he found a whole bag of "NZT" in the interlayer of a rice cooker!
He didn't know exactly how much, but it was definitely enough to last for a while.
Suddenly, dense footsteps came from the corridor. He Xiao knew that the police should be here. Without hesitation, he quickly hid all the pills and rubber gloves in his clothes, then returned to the previous corner, and continued to shrink there. Stay scared.
"Don't move! Police!"
The door of the room was broken into by the police, and He Xiao was pressed against the wall. He explained loudly that he was the reporter, and after confirming his identity, he was taken back to the police station to make notes and investigate.
He Xiao answered all the questions truthfully, such as the relationship between the two, and the reason why he went to his house and so on.
It was perfect, because this happened in the first place, there is no doubt that He Xiao was ruled out as a suspect in the end.
Returning to the small basement, He Xiao's face was full of excitement, because there was a whole bag of "NZT" in his pocket.
He poured out all the NZT, put it in a small bottle, and took one every day.
He didn't know the side effects of this incomplete black technology pill, but he knew that he couldn't live without it.
After taking one pill, he is the super version of He Xiao, omnipotent, and the effect can last until the next morning.
And these are enough for him to eat for a while.
He Xiao took a deep breath, swallowed a pill, and three seconds later, the medicine took effect. He Xiao's expanded vision, keen observation, extraordinary IQ, photographic memory, and self-discipline that surpassed ordinary people all came back to him. into the body.
He first turned on his laptop, glanced at the manuscript uploaded yesterday, and a red website that he had been waiting for for eight years appeared in front of him easily.
The work is signed.
He Xiao didn't have much joy in his heart, everything was expected.
He returned the 2000 yuan signing bonus to the landlord, and then shut himself in the room for a period of time, writing the entire novel with absolute self-discipline and concentration.
The advantage of doing this is that it can ensure that after he loses "NZT", the novel will still have content to publish.
At the same time, the novel became popular on the website as expected, and He Xiao's daily manuscript fee rose from tens of yuan to several hundred yuan to several thousand yuan.
With money in his hands, He Xiao's heart began to become restless. He began to pay attention to appearance, body, talent and knowledge.
The first thing he did was to change his look, cut off his messy beard and hair, threw his smelly clothes into the trash can, put on a brand new suit, and began to learn to exercise himself.
No matter what time you go to bed at night, you must get up on time at [-]:[-] in the morning, then start a three-kilometer jog, eat a nutritious breakfast after exercising, and then go to school to learn something you are interested in. You can learn anything, as long as you can enrich yourself. .
However, on the first day of going to school, He Xiao found that everything was too simple. His learning ability has been strengthened to surpass that of human beings. It only took him three days to master a language, and he was also proficient in the piano in one day. Boxing and wrestling are the same.
In just one month, He Xiao's life has undergone earth-shaking changes. From the previous hunchback, wretched temperament, and powerless hands, to the current tall and straight body, bright eyes, young and powerful, he has almost changed. body.
Nothing in this world can stop him.
He is disciplined, he is smart, he is rich, and he is omnipotent.
Perhaps, he should use "NZT" to do something different.
He Xiao looked at the business tycoons and dignitaries who appeared on the news every day, his eyes showed ambition.
He started to study the securities market, went all out and devoted himself to it. In just one week, he became a master of it.
Matched with his ability, his ambition is expanding, and he poured all the income he earned from his manuscript fees into the stock market.
Of course, needless to say, with his ingenuity, he is simply a myth in the stock market, and he is always going against the odds. In less than half a month, the initial capital of 20 has become 2000 million!Turned a full hundred times!
He Xiao's name rose up like a shooting star, and became famous in the business district of the entire capital.
Countless celebrities and wealthy people flocked to him. He met new friends, formed a new circle, traveled to many places in the world, bought real estate, and bought luxury cars.
The him now is completely different from the one he was three months ago, maybe when he meets someone exactly like him on the road now, he won't even take a look.
Young and wealthy, self-disciplined in life, eight-pack abs, extremely smart, amazing IQ... Facing such a perfect man, no woman would not be tempted. He Xiao changed his girlfriend almost every three days. I dare not think about it.
He got his wish and became a successful person.
Until this day, a haggard woman knocked on the door of his office.
She obviously has lush black hair, but her face is covered with deep wrinkles, as if a young man has aged prematurely, which is very weird.
She sat in front of him under He Xiao's puzzled eyes, and said in surprise and sadness, "You don't know me anymore."
"You... are Xu Ting?"
It wasn't until hearing her voice that He Xiao's long-lost memory was awakened. He stared at the woman in front of him in astonishment, with a face full of disbelief.
Because this is Xu Shengjiu's sister, the ex-girlfriend he has been talking about for six years!
"Seeing how successful you are now, you should eat NZT very often, right?"
Without warning, such a sentence popped out of Xu Ting's mouth.
He Xiao frowned. He walked quickly to the door of the office and closed the door. He turned his head and stared at Xu Ting menacingly.
"Have you also taken this medicine?"
Xu Ting didn't care about his gaze at all, she sat there stretched out her wrinkled hand, took out a cigarette and lit it, clicked her mouth and said, "Are you very dependent on NZT now?"
"...every day, sometimes two or three pills a day."
He Xiao was silent for a while, but still answered her question, because obviously, Xu Ting had also taken this medicine, and seemed to understand it better.
"Two or three pills..." After Xu Ting heard this, she looked at He Xiao emotionally and felt sympathetic after a while, "You should stop this medicine as soon as possible."
After finishing speaking, she sighed, turned around and was about to leave, He Xiao couldn't help but panic when she saw her like that, grabbed her arm and asked: "Xu Ting, please speak clearly, is it because of this that you became like this?" medicine?"
Xu Ting was silent, as if she was struggling. It was a past that she didn't want to recall, but she finally let go: "NZT is a drug that is still in the experimental stage, and there are many side effects. All you can feel now is that it is excessive. The illusion gained after overdrawing your body."
"After the average person takes a hundred pills, the body will not be able to withstand this high-intensity overdraft, and will begin to experience many different symptoms such as aging, decreased resistance, anemia, etc., but the final result is the same."
Every time Xu Ting uttered a sentence, He Xiao's heart became colder, especially when he heard that "the average person will develop symptoms after taking a hundred pills", his pupils shrank, because he just took the hundredth pill today. Zero one.
"What result?"
He took a few deep breaths and asked again, but Xu Ting didn't speak this time, but fell into silence. Seeing this, He Xiao couldn't understand, and he was paralyzed on the seat.
There is only one end to continue taking NZT, death!
But if you don't continue to take...
He Xiao deeply understands that it is impossible for him not to continue taking it. He has already developed a strong dependence on this thing, and his brain has developed to [-]%, which is an unprecedented new world. Later, the brain will continue to send hints to him.
I can't quit this thing, knowing that I will die if I continue to eat it, and no one can resist it.
In other words, this is an endless loop that will continue endlessly, until the day of my own death comes...
(End of this chapter)
"So you earn 2000 million when you go out for a meal?"
At home, He Xiao and Zhang Ya were sitting on the sofa drinking tea, and after hearing his story, the Queen of Heaven couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
A meal of 2000 million yuan is really not something that ordinary people can do.
"Well, anyway, I have nothing to do now. Compared to running a business and acting in a variety show, it's more cost-effective to film with Liu Haibo."
In fact, He Xiao agreed to film, although it was a whim, but also after careful consideration.
After all, the money earned from running a commercial show is really not as much as filming, and the styles of the two are also different. One is to perform for local rich money, and the other is to appear on the big screen in a theater. Needless to say, which one is more promising .
In addition, this invitation was proposed by Liu Haibo, and it was the second time he invited He Xiao. If he refused again, it would be too disrespectful to others. This is called ignorance.
Zhang Ya never interfered with any of He Xiao's decisions, and always maintained a supportive attitude. At this time, she smiled slightly and said softly: "Okay, if you think you can, just let go and do it. If you need anything, just talk to me."
Although Zhang Ya has never acted before, she is not a fool in the entertainment industry for nothing. She knows a lot of friends with superb acting skills, and may be able to help He Xiao, a novice actor, that's why she said this.
"Thank you for supporting every decision I make."
He Xiao knew all this in his heart, and a touch of emotion welled up in his heart. He scratched Zhang Ya's little nose, and thanked her with eyes full of love.
In fact, He Xiao is not in a hurry to improve his acting skills. He doesn't have many roles this time, he is just a supporting role. It is estimated that all the scenes are added together, and it only lasts about 15 minutes.
His biggest idea is to take this opportunity to go to the real set to see what kind of scene it is, how the actors and actresses perform so well, and how Liu Haibo directs.
After all, the largest filming set he had been in contact with before was only the MV scene of "Old Boy".
And all his knowledge about acting was learned from that half-baked director of Le Jia, Huang Jun. Huang Jun's professional knowledge is limited. Compared with it, it is simply a thousand miles away.
So He Xiao is very interested in the real set, the real director, and the real acting.
Of course, it would be even better if he could perform better in this drama. After all, no one wants to be just a vase who doesn't understand anything.
Acting is all about talent.
Experience, life, and experience only account for a small half of the factors. In the world of black phones, there are many artists who have developed both in the music industry and the film industry. When they switch from it, most of them are amazingly talented. As an actor, he directly won the Golden Horse Best Actor.
Can this fucking be called talent?
Acting is too talented!
He Xiao's talent is good. When he participated in the variety show "Ace vs. Ace", he once got Ren Ke from actor Liao Yuan, but He Xiao knew very well that in that small test, he actually took a shortcut.
At that time, the program group asked the guests to imitate the scenes of the classic movie "Romance on Lushan Mountain". The expressions on the screen were copied directly, which is why he won such high affirmation from the actor Liao Yuan.
If there is no "Love in Lushan Mountain" in the black phone, He Xiao can really let He Xiao play by himself, and he will definitely not be able to do so well.
Therefore, He Xiao's talent in acting can only be said to be slight, and it is not comparable to those legendary characters in the black phone. Now that he wants to improve his acting skills, from a novice to an actor, he can only rely on redoubled efforts .
"Go to bed first, I'm reading the script."
Seeing that Zhang Ya was a little sleepy, He Xiao asked her to sleep first, so he didn't have to wait for him. He was now feeling novel about acting, and he couldn't fall asleep even after the novelty hadn't passed.
"Okay, you should go to bed early too." Zhang Ya nodded, and didn't bother He Xiao too much, because she knew that the most important way for couples to get along is to give each other private space.
……
outside the window.
The night is getting darker.
Zhang Ya had already rested, He Xiao sat on the sofa, lit a lamp by himself, and was flipping through the script very carefully.
"How about...write a character biography?"
He Xiao suddenly thought of closing the script that he had read no less than three times.
A character biography is an important preparation for an actor before acting. Liang Jiahui in the black phone once wrote a [-]-word biography for the character, just to figure out the character's life, quickly substitute, and enter the state.
He Xiao has never written a biography, but he can write novels, and the most important point is that the role Liu Haibo gave him is an Internet writer in the play, which just overlaps with his reality, so for He Xiao himself In other words, the sense of substitution is very strong, and the biography of the characters is naturally much easier to write.
After taking out the black phone to check the time, He Xiao casually put it aside, then took out a notepad and a black pen, and began to think about where to start writing.
Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the bright moonlight quietly hid in the darkness at some point. The whole world was completely silent, and it was extremely quiet. It seemed that He Xiao was the only one left in the whole community.
He picked up the pen, and wrote the character's life according to the idea in his mind. He was writing hard, but he didn't notice that the black mobile phone seemed to emit some faint light, and then He Xiao's pupils began to disappear unconsciously. Focused, and finally passed out on the couch.
……
……
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
There was a hasty, savage knock on the door, which made him very unhappy in his sleep.
The whole person turned over and sat up from the bed, scratching his messy hair, which was no different from a bird's nest, his eyes were sleepy, and he pushed open the door with some wobbly walking.
"What are you pretending to be dead! Will you pay the rent? How many days have you owed?"
Outside the door was an obese woman with a big round face and a rosy nose. She belonged to the type who would still look unattractive even if she lost weight. At this time, she was shaking her arm as thick as a small tree trunk to face him inside the door. Pointing at the nose and cursing.
"Why am I here?"
There was a bit of bewilderment on his sleepy face, because he remembered that he was obviously a big star that everyone was looking at. He had just appeared in the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, and even negotiated a 2000 million contract, but what happened now?
Oh yes, it was a dream,
It must be a dream.
"I'm sorry, landlord, I'm sleepless. If you give me a few more days, I will definitely pay the rent."
He seemed to recognize the identity of the fat woman in front of him, and the expression on his face began to change, from the initial blankness, to a flattering expression, with his hands clasped on his chest, begging non-stop.
"Okay, I'll give you the last three days, if you can't afford it, pack up and get out!"
The fat woman gave him a very disgusted look, as if looking at an annoying fly, then turned around, twisted her not-enchanting figure, and left enchantingly.
When the door was closed, the man leaned limply behind the door like a ball that had exhausted all his energy, and looked at the ceiling with bewildered eyes.
His name is He Xiao, and he is 28 years old. He is a lazy bug who fantasizes that one day he can make money by writing. He lives in one of the tens of thousands of basements in the capital every day.
Whenever someone asked him about his job, he would say he was a writer, but in fact he hadn't even published a book, and he was just nestling in the basement of less than [-] square meters every day with nothing to do.
As for why not looking for a serious job?
To put it bluntly, he is pretentious. He always feels that he is not an ordinary person and will become a great talent in the future. He despises ordinary jobs, but the fact is that he only has a high school degree, knows nothing, and can mess up even the smallest things. Worked as a waiter at McDonald's and was fired in less than three months.
I haven't touched a job since then, and now rely on some petty theft to eke out a living.
Panting, He Xiao stood up from the ground, glanced at the room full of rubbish and nowhere to stay, and walked out on tiptoe.
When I came to the bathroom, sewage and dirty things were all over the floor, and the mirror on the sink was already covered with something sticky, so I could barely see the scene inside.
Reflected on it is a man about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a smelly denim jacket, with a thick beard and shoulder-length hair.
Growing a beard is not for the sexiness of a man, but because he lives a sloppy life and is too lazy to deal with it. His long hair is not the so-called artist's feelings, but he simply has no money to go to the barber shop.
He once thought about cutting it off by himself without scissors, but later thought that relying on his own craftsmanship, he might only make him look more like a fool after cutting it.
Turning on the faucet and washing his face perfunctorily, he came to his workbench.
A broken table left by the landlord, and a second-hand dilapidated laptop from ten years ago.
The computer has not been used for a few years, the hard disk, CPU, and graphics card are seriously degraded, and it takes a long time to start up. There is no software installed in it, only the writing tool Word document that comes with the pirated system.
As usual, he opened the Word interface, and there were two lines of words that read fluently, which he wrote in three days.
"It's been the last three days, and today I must write [-] words, and then sign a contract with the website, so that the landlord's stinky fat pig will look at me with admiration."
He Xiao sits in front of the computer and talks to himself vigorously. At first it sounds very passionate and inspirational, but in fact he says this sentence to himself every day.
And the result is naturally that day after day, year after year, he still hasn't made any achievements.
Today is exactly the same as yesterday. After he finished saying this, he stared at the Word interface in a daze, then clicked his toes, read the newspaper, went to the bathroom to squat at noon, and lay on the sofa to watch TV for a while in the afternoon. .
"Hold!"
At night, he looked at the blank computer interface and couldn't help but cursed fiercely. It seemed that this was the only thing he could do.
"Maybe staying at home has no inspiration, so I should go out for a walk."
He thought so comfortingly.
Putting on the only jacket that looked clean, he took out half a bottle of pirated blue wind chime perfume bought for ten yuan from the drawer, and sprayed it on his body repeatedly to cover up his stink. go out.
Outside the basement is a small street that is not very wide and has no rules. There are many small vendors setting up stalls here every day, which belongs to the area where no one cares.
After He Xiao came out, he skillfully walked an apple on the donkey that sells fruit, put it in his mouth without washing it, and gnawed it, um, it was so sweet.
Drilling out of the alley, there are countless high-rise buildings in front of you.
The capital city at night is undoubtedly charming, full of temptations of luxury and luxury, he is like a lonely ghost, wandering aimlessly on the street, as if out of tune with this noisy world.
"I'm stupid, isn't this a joke? How did you get into such a bad manner?"
Sometimes people are like this. When they are most frustrated, they can always meet their former friends, just like a girl who puts on delicate makeup and goes out without a single handsome guy. Every time you take out the trash, you can run into the squad leader you have a crush on.
"Ajiu, long time no see."
Standing in front of He Xiao's face is Xu Shengjiu, the son of a bitch, who is the younger brother of his ex-girlfriend, and is a gangster.
Yes, He Xiao once had a girlfriend.
He was ignorant when he was in school, and he dated a girlfriend for six years, and both of them reached the point of discussing marriage, but in the end, because He Xiao was really unmotivated, and the woman's family disagreed, the matter was blown away. up.
Later, I heard that she found a new boyfriend who had a car and a house half a year after they separated, and the two got married in a flash.
After so many years, He Xiao never inquired about their family affairs, but he never expected to run into his "former brother-in-law" today.
"How are you doing recently? Are you still writing novels?" Xu Shengjiu gave He Xiao a cigarette and asked with a smile.
When He Xiao saw this cigarette, he couldn't move, because it was a Chinese cigarette.
It seems that the dog-like brother-in-law in front of him is doing well.
After taking a sip, He Xiao said not to be outdone, "Well, I'm writing, the editor just gave me a recommended position yesterday, and I guess I can earn five or six thousand manuscript fees a day after I get on it."
"Heh... let's go, have a drink or two?" Xu Shengjiu stared at him up and down, not trying to expose his braggadocio, and stretched out a hand to invite him to drink.
He Xiao naturally readily agreed, it would be great for him to have a meal.
Following the ex-girlfriend's younger brother into a high-end restaurant, the two found a seat by the window and sat down, and then He Xiao started his eloquent speech.
It's nothing more than how many words I wrote today, how much manuscript fees I earned, and how many thousands of copyrights I sold.
Xu Shengjiu didn't speak, just listened quietly, and after a long time, he smiled and said, "You don't have to be like me, really."
"It's okay if you're not with my sister. I've already seen it. You two are not in the same way. You and I are in the same way."
"Listen, it's not shameful to be doing well now. You don't need to hide your shortcomings. When you succeed, you will find that you are ridiculous."
Xu Shengjiu showed off his expensive suit and luxury watch, and said, "Look at me, is the life you dream of living? If you want it too, I can help you, and you can get it at your fingertips."
He Xiao stared straight at the luxury watch on Xu Shengjiu's wrist. He was a little moved by the words, but immediately shook his head, "I'm cowardly, and I can't do your underworld business."
He deeply knows who this little brother-in-law is, he is less educated than him, and wanders around the edge of darkness all year round. If he is a bug to this world, then Xu Shengjiu is a moth.
Although they are all insects, they are far from each other.
Seeing that He Xiao was worried about this, Xu Shengjiu burst out laughing. He pursed his lips and didn't refute immediately. Instead, after looking left and right, he took out a small white pill from his pocket and put it on the table.
"Eat it and you'll have it all."
The small pill in front of me looked a bit strange, like cold medicine, but it had a different pattern printed on it, saying "NZT".
"what is this?"
He Xiao stared blankly for a moment, then thought of something bad, and quickly shook his head, "I don't smoke that stuff."
"It's not what you think. It's a regular medicine. It can develop the potential of the human body and make your brain develop to [-]%. It is the latest technology in the United States and has a certificate." Put the business card in front of him together, and then smiled confidently: "Trust me, you will fall in love with it soon, and also, if you need it, you can call me."
After finishing speaking, Xu Shengjiu winked at him, turned and left the restaurant.
He was left alone by the window, staring at the pill in a daze.
No matter how bad the ending of life is, how bad will it be?
Anyway, it has already become like this dog, huh.
He took a look at the small pill, and finally swallowed it into his mouth with an attitude of giving it a try.
There is no smell, and there is no abnormality in the body, but the scene in front of him seems to have changed. I don't know if it is due to an illusion, but it is even wider.
Looking down at the palm of his hand, He Xiao felt that he was as light as a swallow, with a clear mind and eyesight.
"When did you care about me? You only have yourself in your eyes!"
"Calm down, this is a restaurant."
"Do you know that I'm under a lot of pressure now, but you can't help me at all. You only know how to play games all day long, what a waste!"
"Okay, I'm a useless person, right? Then you can find someone who is not a useless person to go there!"
"..."
The sound of quarreling came from next to his ears, He Xiao turned around and looked, it was a young couple at the next table.
What are they arguing about?
Strangely, He Xiao's first reaction was not to watch the excitement, but to think about the problem.
His observation ability seems to be sharper than before, because he clearly noticed the corner of the book page protruding from the girl's backpack. Although there is only one word "Lv" on it for him to see, He Xiao also deduced that this is A law book.
Combined with the girl's attire and not very old age, this should be a trainee lawyer who has just stepped into society.
And that boy, wearing sportswear, wearing Armani in his hand, and a pair of AJs on his feet, is wearing a light luxury trendy brand, but his mobile phone is still an outdated iPhone7. male.
All the information acquisition and analysis were completed in an instant, but He Xiao was not surprised at all, as if these were the skills he should have had in the first place.
The boys and girls quarreled more and more fiercely, and finally the boy left angrily, leaving the girl sulking in the restaurant alone.
He Xiao picked up the unfinished foreign wine on his table, shook it gently, and sat in front of her.
"What are you worrying about? When you encounter a case that you don't know, just ask the seniors if it's okay?"
It can be clearly felt that after He Xiao opened his mouth, the girl's expression froze for a moment.
"what are you saying?"
"Being a lawyer is inherently a stressful profession, and you should understand this when you take the bar exam."
He Xiao ignored the girl's question and finished speaking on his own. It was obvious that the girl was completely attracted by him as soon as he said those words.
"How do you know this? Are you following me?" But attraction is attraction, she still maintained full caution when facing a stranger.
He Xiao shrugged, "There's no need to follow, your features are very obvious, almost written on your face."
In the following conversation, He Xiao was eloquent, explaining all his analysis with reason and evidence, and the girl was stunned at the beginning, but her eyes started to shine, as if she had seen something unbelievable Same.
In the end, the girl completely let go of her guard against He Xiao, and began to confide in her heart, explaining what upset her. It turned out that she had encountered a difficult case. If she could assist other lawyers to complete this case, she would have the opportunity to apply for regularization next month. , and his boyfriend is a fool who only knows how to play games all day long, never sharing the pressure for her, and today he quarreled over a trivial matter, so he developed into what he is now.
"A tricky case? Let's hear it."
"You still understand this?"
"know a little."
He Xiao is not a lawyer, he doesn't even have a job, but he knows that he is not trying to be brave at this time, because he can clearly recall every day in his nearly 30 years of life in his mind.
There are countless books a person has read in his life, but most of them have been forgotten. For example, when he was five years old, when he went to a bookstore to buy comics, he casually flipped through other books on the shelf and glanced at them in a hurry. Your eyes have seen the content, and your brain has accepted it, but you subconsciously choose to ignore it, so naturally you can't remember the content.
But at this moment, He Xiao can recall every word of the books he has read in his half life, and everything he has seen, so a mere lawyer's case is naturally nothing to be afraid of.
The final result was that He Xiao easily solved the troubles that troubled her, and they chatted happily. He Xiao was like an omniscient detective, and every word he said could whet the girl's appetite. The two of them moved from the restaurant to the hotel naturally.
It wasn't until after ten o'clock in the evening that he returned to his basement clutching his waist.
Pushing open the door, what greeted his eyes was the mess that he saw every day, but today He Xiao was particularly disgusted, with a sense of disgust from the bottom of his heart.
How can this be my room?
How can this be my room?
He seemed to be on fire in his heart, wishing to burn this place down immediately, but his reason didn't allow him to do so.
Putting on the gloves, He Xiao started to clean from inside to outside. The small basement with only [-] square meters finally looked brand new after an hour. Although the furniture was still tattered, it was neat and clean.
Sitting at the computer desk, looking at the spotless home in front of him, he finally felt at ease.
The most important thing is that he feels that he is still in very good condition without any fatigue.
So, this time, he turned his eyes on the computer, turned his mind slightly, and countless inspirations burst out, which he couldn't stop.
He knew what he was going to write.
Putting both hands on the keyboard, He Xiao entered the focus mode. For five hours, he didn't slip away once. This was completely impossible and unthinkable in the past.
Five hours later, the [-]-word manuscript was neatly placed on the computer, and He Xiao still didn't feel the slightest fatigue. He felt like a god, omnipotent.
After saving the manuscript, He Xiao uploaded it to the novel website in batches. If he passed the test, he will receive a signing notice from the website tomorrow. After the signing is successful, there will be a cash reward of 2000 yuan.
Looking back at the clock, it was already three o'clock in the morning in the middle of the night. Although he was not sleepy yet, there was a voice in his heart telling him that it was time to sleep.
Lying on the bed, the mobile phone was placed beside the bed, but He Xiaoqu didn't touch it, didn't even look at it, there was only one word in his head, sleep.
This night when he didn't play with his mobile phone, He Xiao slept very soundly. He thought that this state would last until the next day.
It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when he opened his eyes. He turned over and felt that his body was still very lazy, and he didn't want to move. He just lay there for another hour before getting up.
Sitting on the bed, without making a quilt, I took out my socks from the cabinet, smelled them a bit sour, and threw them on the wall, then sat in front of the computer without brushing my teeth or washing my face, wanting to Continue to code words, looking at the Word that has already written half of the story yesterday, but I just can’t remember how to write the following text that I conceived yesterday.
One hour.
Two hours.
He Xiao let himself go, without moving a word.
He was back to his old self.
"It's the medicine."
Fortunately, he was not completely confused. After sitting on the chair for a long time, he decided to go to Xu Shengjiu. No matter what method he used, begging or part-time job, he must get another "NZT".
According to the address on the business card, He Xiao came to an apartment located in a remote area around the capital, and then found the house number.
Standing in front of the door, He Xiao was thinking about what to say, when suddenly, the door was completely opened from the inside.
Xu Shengjiu was wearing a nightgown, his face was bloodstained and decadent, but he looked at him as if he had expected it: "Haha, I knew you would come."
"Close the door."
He laughed out loud like crazy, then stopped suddenly, turned and went back to the apartment, He Xiao was frightened by him, so he could only close the door at a loss.
"You took the medicine and want more?"
Xu Shengjiu sat on the sofa, playing with a glass of red wine in his palm, and said as if he was telling the truth.
He Xiao knew that he must have taken "NZT", so he was not surprised by his cleverness, so he nodded and begged, "Ajiu, as long as you give me that medicine, I can do anything."
"You can do anything? Hahahaha, do you know how much that medicine costs? 8000 yuan a pill! Where are you worth 8000 yuan?" Xu Shengjiu stood up and poked him in the face as if he had heard some funny joke: " Do you really think of yourself as an onion? Let me tell you the truth. I gave you medicine for free yesterday to test the effect. To put it bluntly, you are a guinea pig. Do you understand the medicine? There is no certificate for the medicine at all. Smuggled from America!"
Xu Shengjiu is not afraid of He Xiao being angry at all, because he knows that the other party has been deeply fascinated after tasting the medicine, and if he wants to get more medicine, he can only obey him.
The fact is indeed the case, He Xiao didn't speak, just listened to him scolding, when enough scolding, Xu Shengjiu lit a cigarette, handed him 200 yuan, and asked him to go out and buy some food to bring back.
He Xiao didn't know if he couldn't order takeaway because he had some shady things, or if he just wanted to sneak away. He only knew that he had no choice, so he obediently followed suit.
He Xiao packed rice and stir-fried vegetables at the restaurant, and He Xiao returned to the apartment half an hour later. What surprised him was that the door was not closed tightly.
He pushed it away lightly in surprise, and saw that the room was pitch black. He froze slightly, pressed the wall light switch, and then saw Xu Shengjiu sitting on the sofa with his back to him.
"I bought fish-flavored shredded pork. I don't know if you like it or not."
He Xiao walked over cautiously, and when he walked around the sofa, a scene that shocked him appeared.
Xu Shengjiu had a knife stuck in his chest.
he died!
During the half hour he left, someone broke in and killed Xu Shengjiu, and there were obvious signs of being turned over in the room.
He Xiao was very scared, very scared.
He didn't know if the murderer had left or not. After his ass fell to the ground in fright, he kept backing away until his back was leaning against the wall, and then he slowly stood up.
"I have nothing to do with this person, it's useless for you to kill me!"
After a short period of fear, He Xiao tried to communicate with the unknown gangster, but after a long time, no one in the room responded, and it seemed that the murderer had already left.
After confirming his own safety, He Xiao hurriedly took out his mobile phone and started to call the police. He didn't dare to leave the murder scene for fear of being defined as a suspect after leaving.
After finishing the phone call and confirming that there were no criminals in the room, He Xiao shrank in the corner and slowly regained his senses.
then……
He thought of a very crucial question.
Why did the gangsters come to kill Xu Shengjiu?
Or what is it about Xu Shengjiu, a **** scum, that attracts the attention of gangsters?
The answer is only - "NZT".
So did he find it?
Looking at the messy apartment that had been turned over in front of him, He Xiao chose not to.
That being the case... a bold idea was crazily brewing in his mind, he hardly hesitated, ran to the kitchen to put on rubber gloves to ensure that no fingerprints would be left, and then began to rummage through boxes and cabinets, and picked out the criminals who did not rummage through. Search where you have been.
Even under the temptation of "NZT", he touched Xu Shengjiu's body all over.
Got nothing!
Is that the last "NZT"?
Or did he not keep it at home?
Impossible, such an important thing, where can it be placed if it is not at home.
He Xiao tried to calm himself down, because the police car was coming soon, and there was not much time left for him.
Suddenly, he saw shredded fish-flavored pork on the ground.
Xu Shengjiu has a kitchen at home, but he asked himself to buy food, which only means that the kitchen cannot be used, or... there are important things in the kitchen!
With light in his eyes, He Xiao rushed to the kitchen like crazy and began to search. Sure enough, he found a whole bag of "NZT" in the interlayer of a rice cooker!
He didn't know exactly how much, but it was definitely enough to last for a while.
Suddenly, dense footsteps came from the corridor. He Xiao knew that the police should be here. Without hesitation, he quickly hid all the pills and rubber gloves in his clothes, then returned to the previous corner, and continued to shrink there. Stay scared.
"Don't move! Police!"
The door of the room was broken into by the police, and He Xiao was pressed against the wall. He explained loudly that he was the reporter, and after confirming his identity, he was taken back to the police station to make notes and investigate.
He Xiao answered all the questions truthfully, such as the relationship between the two, and the reason why he went to his house and so on.
It was perfect, because this happened in the first place, there is no doubt that He Xiao was ruled out as a suspect in the end.
Returning to the small basement, He Xiao's face was full of excitement, because there was a whole bag of "NZT" in his pocket.
He poured out all the NZT, put it in a small bottle, and took one every day.
He didn't know the side effects of this incomplete black technology pill, but he knew that he couldn't live without it.
After taking one pill, he is the super version of He Xiao, omnipotent, and the effect can last until the next morning.
And these are enough for him to eat for a while.
He Xiao took a deep breath, swallowed a pill, and three seconds later, the medicine took effect. He Xiao's expanded vision, keen observation, extraordinary IQ, photographic memory, and self-discipline that surpassed ordinary people all came back to him. into the body.
He first turned on his laptop, glanced at the manuscript uploaded yesterday, and a red website that he had been waiting for for eight years appeared in front of him easily.
The work is signed.
He Xiao didn't have much joy in his heart, everything was expected.
He returned the 2000 yuan signing bonus to the landlord, and then shut himself in the room for a period of time, writing the entire novel with absolute self-discipline and concentration.
The advantage of doing this is that it can ensure that after he loses "NZT", the novel will still have content to publish.
At the same time, the novel became popular on the website as expected, and He Xiao's daily manuscript fee rose from tens of yuan to several hundred yuan to several thousand yuan.
With money in his hands, He Xiao's heart began to become restless. He began to pay attention to appearance, body, talent and knowledge.
The first thing he did was to change his look, cut off his messy beard and hair, threw his smelly clothes into the trash can, put on a brand new suit, and began to learn to exercise himself.
No matter what time you go to bed at night, you must get up on time at [-]:[-] in the morning, then start a three-kilometer jog, eat a nutritious breakfast after exercising, and then go to school to learn something you are interested in. You can learn anything, as long as you can enrich yourself. .
However, on the first day of going to school, He Xiao found that everything was too simple. His learning ability has been strengthened to surpass that of human beings. It only took him three days to master a language, and he was also proficient in the piano in one day. Boxing and wrestling are the same.
In just one month, He Xiao's life has undergone earth-shaking changes. From the previous hunchback, wretched temperament, and powerless hands, to the current tall and straight body, bright eyes, young and powerful, he has almost changed. body.
Nothing in this world can stop him.
He is disciplined, he is smart, he is rich, and he is omnipotent.
Perhaps, he should use "NZT" to do something different.
He Xiao looked at the business tycoons and dignitaries who appeared on the news every day, his eyes showed ambition.
He started to study the securities market, went all out and devoted himself to it. In just one week, he became a master of it.
Matched with his ability, his ambition is expanding, and he poured all the income he earned from his manuscript fees into the stock market.
Of course, needless to say, with his ingenuity, he is simply a myth in the stock market, and he is always going against the odds. In less than half a month, the initial capital of 20 has become 2000 million!Turned a full hundred times!
He Xiao's name rose up like a shooting star, and became famous in the business district of the entire capital.
Countless celebrities and wealthy people flocked to him. He met new friends, formed a new circle, traveled to many places in the world, bought real estate, and bought luxury cars.
The him now is completely different from the one he was three months ago, maybe when he meets someone exactly like him on the road now, he won't even take a look.
Young and wealthy, self-disciplined in life, eight-pack abs, extremely smart, amazing IQ... Facing such a perfect man, no woman would not be tempted. He Xiao changed his girlfriend almost every three days. I dare not think about it.
He got his wish and became a successful person.
Until this day, a haggard woman knocked on the door of his office.
She obviously has lush black hair, but her face is covered with deep wrinkles, as if a young man has aged prematurely, which is very weird.
She sat in front of him under He Xiao's puzzled eyes, and said in surprise and sadness, "You don't know me anymore."
"You... are Xu Ting?"
It wasn't until hearing her voice that He Xiao's long-lost memory was awakened. He stared at the woman in front of him in astonishment, with a face full of disbelief.
Because this is Xu Shengjiu's sister, the ex-girlfriend he has been talking about for six years!
"Seeing how successful you are now, you should eat NZT very often, right?"
Without warning, such a sentence popped out of Xu Ting's mouth.
He Xiao frowned. He walked quickly to the door of the office and closed the door. He turned his head and stared at Xu Ting menacingly.
"Have you also taken this medicine?"
Xu Ting didn't care about his gaze at all, she sat there stretched out her wrinkled hand, took out a cigarette and lit it, clicked her mouth and said, "Are you very dependent on NZT now?"
"...every day, sometimes two or three pills a day."
He Xiao was silent for a while, but still answered her question, because obviously, Xu Ting had also taken this medicine, and seemed to understand it better.
"Two or three pills..." After Xu Ting heard this, she looked at He Xiao emotionally and felt sympathetic after a while, "You should stop this medicine as soon as possible."
After finishing speaking, she sighed, turned around and was about to leave, He Xiao couldn't help but panic when she saw her like that, grabbed her arm and asked: "Xu Ting, please speak clearly, is it because of this that you became like this?" medicine?"
Xu Ting was silent, as if she was struggling. It was a past that she didn't want to recall, but she finally let go: "NZT is a drug that is still in the experimental stage, and there are many side effects. All you can feel now is that it is excessive. The illusion gained after overdrawing your body."
"After the average person takes a hundred pills, the body will not be able to withstand this high-intensity overdraft, and will begin to experience many different symptoms such as aging, decreased resistance, anemia, etc., but the final result is the same."
Every time Xu Ting uttered a sentence, He Xiao's heart became colder, especially when he heard that "the average person will develop symptoms after taking a hundred pills", his pupils shrank, because he just took the hundredth pill today. Zero one.
"What result?"
He took a few deep breaths and asked again, but Xu Ting didn't speak this time, but fell into silence. Seeing this, He Xiao couldn't understand, and he was paralyzed on the seat.
There is only one end to continue taking NZT, death!
But if you don't continue to take...
He Xiao deeply understands that it is impossible for him not to continue taking it. He has already developed a strong dependence on this thing, and his brain has developed to [-]%, which is an unprecedented new world. Later, the brain will continue to send hints to him.
I can't quit this thing, knowing that I will die if I continue to eat it, and no one can resist it.
In other words, this is an endless loop that will continue endlessly, until the day of my own death comes...
