Oh no, the aloof school beauty has been reborn too!

With only a week left before the final exams, the group finally released the first version of their daily cleaning tool.

The version number is set at v0.1.0.

In the current version, the tool can identify several fixed interfaces and can clean up some tasks according to a route.

It can also pop up an error message box when it fails.

[Task execution failed. Please check if the game window is in the foreground.]

Zhao Lin initially wanted to add a sentence at the end:

"Or check if the game process has started."

But after Lu Xing gave him a silent look, he quietly deleted the sentence.

After all, actually writing it down seems a bit like insulting the user's intelligence...

As a result, on the very night the tool was released, someone in the group gave feedback.

Why is there no response after I click "Start"?

Lu Xing had no choice but to ask him to check his log.

When the other party sent it over, the log clearly stated:

No target window detected.

Lu Xing paused for two seconds, then asked:

"Is the game running?"

The other party was silent for a while, and finally sent a message:

Sorry, I forgot.

Lu Xing stared at the screen, remaining silent for a long time.

Zhao Lin commented quietly from the side:

"See? I told you that adding that line was necessary."

Lu Xing was so angry that he laughed on the spot.

He now understood why those powerful figures in his past life had added steps to launch games to their tools...

Even more outrageous, some people asked if this tool could help them draw cards.

Zhao Lin replied directly in the group chat:

No, but you can close your eyes and wish for that power.

Lin Yuanzhou nearly fainted upon seeing this and quickly retracted his message.

Then, in the group chat, they switched to an official tone:

[The tool is currently used for automating routine processes; random actions such as card draws are not yet supported.]

After sending the message, he turned and glared at Zhao Lin.

"Holy crap, Zhao Lin!"

Zhao Lin slowly raised his head.

"I think I'm right..."

"I'm too lazy to draw cards myself, so let's just wish that we'll make the feature work."

Lin Yuanzhou was speechless for a moment.

Lu Xing sat in front of the computer, looking at the problem reports while unable to stop laughing.

The fact that there are so many feedback issues shows that people are actually using the tool.

Lin Yuanzhou had been generating buzz for the version well in advance of its release.

He first posted his experience on several gaming communities, and then edited a video with a very precise title.

[Does clearing your daily tasks take half an hour? Try this lazy person's must-have gadget!]

The first ten seconds of the video show Zhao Lin looking dazed and confused, as if he had been gazing at the screen for some unknown time.

Ten seconds later, the program switched to a demonstration of the tool's automated execution process.

The accompanying text in the middle consists of only one sentence:

Give your time back to life, and save your liver for finals and work.

When Lu Xing saw this copy, he remained silent for a long time.

Finally, he said from the bottom of his heart:

"You're a true operations genius..."

Lin Yuanzhou waved his hand.

"It's a small matter, a small matter~"

However, it must be said that Lin Yuanzhou did a truly perfect job in terms of operations.

He not only posted promotional content, but also created a dedicated communication group to collect questions and maintain user feedback.

The number of stars for the tools is also constantly increasing.

From the initial dozen or so, to dozens, and then to more than a hundred.

For a newly launched student program, this growth rate is already quite remarkable.

To Lu Xing's surprise, a few days later, people actually started submitting requests.

Someone helped fix the recognition offset issue on high-resolution screens, and someone else provided an installation tutorial.

Someone even wrote a simple graphical configuration interface.

Some of these people are already working programmers, while others are probably still students.

However, they all have one thing in common.

All the profile pictures are anime/manga style...

There are white-haired, pink-haired, and blue-haired characters, and one character's face is that of Ahri.

Zhao Lin stared at the contribution list for a while, then suddenly sighed:

"It's over."

Lu Xing turned to look at him.

"What's wrong?"

Zhao Lin looked serious.

"Our project might be a hit."

Lin Yuanzhou leaned closer, looking at the screen with a puzzled expression:

"Holy crap, why are there so many anime fans on my list...?"

"Is there any explanation for this?"

Zhao Lin pointed to the profile picture on the screen.

"Sigh, you don't understand."

"These kinds of people are the most ruthless when they write code."

Looking at the row of anime avatars, Lu Xing had no way to refute them.

Thinking of this, he sighed again.

Back in the day, he traveled the world with his big, grimacing portrait...

With the release of the tool, the two who were originally busy with everything have now become a trio.

As for Zhou Lian...

He has clearly listed all the agreements, disclaimers, and risk warnings.

Unless there are any serious problems, at most the terms and conditions will need to be amended.

However, he wasn't idle for long.

With final exams approaching, he has to study, do part-time work, and also help his teacher with legal aid.

One night when I returned to the dormitory, I was carrying a bag of cold steamed buns.

When Lin Yuanzhou saw him return, he immediately got up, took out a bag of milk that was still unopened from the table, and handed it to him.

"Drink it."

Zhou Lian instinctively wanted to refuse, but Lin Yuanzhou cut him off beforehand:

"Oh dear, they're all almost expired. Please help me clear out this inventory."

Zhou Lian hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted the milk.

……

And so, the final exams slowly approached amidst the chaos.

Lin Yuanzhou held the textbook, highlighting key points while muttering to himself.

"This teacher mentioned the high school entrance exam, and this teacher also mentioned the high school entrance exam..."

"Damn, how come they'll know all of these on the test?"

Zhao Lin, wearing headphones, was actually checking his study materials while debugging the program.

When Lu Xing got up to go to the toilet, he glanced at him helplessly.

"Are you reviewing or developing something?"

Zhao Lin remained expressionless.

"I'm using code to avoid studying."

Lu Xing: "..."

Lu Xing himself wasn't much better off.

During the day, I have to attend classes and review materials; at night, I have to review project feedback; and sometimes I also take on one or two simple outsourcing jobs.

The orders aren't large, and the money isn't much, but the cycle is short.

Lu Xing is now very clear-headed about money; he saves whatever he can.

Whenever I'm coding, the image of a girl smiling occasionally flashes through my mind, and my hands inexplicably gain a little more strength.

When I go to meet my father-in-law, I need to have some confidence.

Shen Qingyi was also very busy this week.

While preparing for her exams, she was also helping out with her senior's project.

Lu Xing asked what exactly they were doing.

She said it involved some text editing and dubbing work.

But she didn't go into details about what it was.

Lu Xing wanted to ask more questions, but she blinked and said seriously:

"This is a girl's secret."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xing had no choice but to shut up.

Fine, I won't say then.

……

The night before the final exam.

After dinner, Lu Xing and Shen Qingyi walked side by side on campus.

The winter nights in Jiangcheng were noticeably chilly.

The streetlights cast a dim yellow glow, and the wind swept through both sides of the road, rustling the withered leaves.

Shen Qingyi still had that beige scarf around her neck.

The girl's small face was half-hidden in her scarf, with only her clean and bright eyes showing.

Lu Xing secretly glanced at her several times.

No matter how many times I see her, she is always so beautiful.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Lu Xing paused for a moment, then immediately said:

"I'm admiring my own craftsmanship."

Shen Qingyi blinked, realizing he was referring to the scarf.

"So, how do you feel about your cooking skills?"

"Well……"

"The stitching is so-so, but the aesthetic sense is pretty good?"

Shen Qingyi raised her hand to touch the scarf, her voice softening.

"I think stitches are fine too."

Lu Xing scratched his cheek, his face showing some unease.

"What's so good about it...?"

"Many things haven't been handled properly yet."

Shen Qingyi shook her head and smiled.

She suddenly stretched out her finger and poked the boy's cheek.

"Perfect love does not exist in this world."

The girl lowered her hand and said softly:

"But if I think it's good, then it's good."

Lu Xing froze for a moment, his ears instantly burning.

"...Isn't that a fallacy?"

Shen Qingyi smiled indifferently and put her hand into Lu Xing's pocket.

The two held hands.

"Why are your hands so cold?"

"Um……"

"So you have a reason to warm my hands~"
