Chapter 75: Noodle shop incident

I failed to get gold again.

I always feel that I will never be able to reach the gold rank in this life. I don't think it's because my skills are not good, but every time I encounter a promotion match, either something goes wrong on my side or my teammates make me want to kill someone!

Last night was the last game of the gold promotion tournament, and the outcome depended on this one. But who would have thought that less than ten minutes into the game, our mid laner suddenly asked us to give him a small movie website, otherwise he would be killed. Our top laner immediately hit a website and told him to wait until the game was over before watching.

But who knew that as soon as the top laner posted the website, our mid laner, jungler, and support all quit the game and went to watch the movie. Both the top laner and I were immediately confused. What had originally been a pretty good start turned into two against five in the end, and there was no way we could lose.

Anyway, I am in no mood to play games today. From the time I got up this morning until now, except for breakfast and lunch, I have been sitting in front of the computer watching "Detective Conan". Although I have followed this cartoon from beginning to end, I have nothing to do now, so I have to watch it again from the beginning, looking for the pleasure of solving the case that perhaps only I can feel.

Maybe someone will ask, since I have given up the commission of the special case team, why don't I look for a job? In fact, Bai Qi had already considered this point. In order to let me put aside all my worries and attract the attention of Qiongqi, he also gave me a monthly salary. It is not as much as before, 8,000 yuan a month, but it is not a small amount for me. If I am a person who is greedy for small gains, I can just have fun for a few months and receive this free salary.

But I didn't do that. I had already asked Officer Yang to keep an eye on it for me and notify me immediately if any difficult cases occurred. Unfortunately, many days have passed and there is still no news from Officer Yang.

As for Qiongqi and his gang, they seem to have successfully disappeared from Zhongwei City. I don’t know how they avoided so many security checks on the road, but with Qiongqi’s abilities, this should be something I expected.

It was a little after one in the afternoon and I was watching cartoons with great interest when there was a knock on the door. Puzzled, I went forward to open the door and saw that the person who came was Zhang Qishan, whom I hadn't seen for a few days.

Zhang Qishan finally felt the cold weather today. She wore a pink coat with a white fur collar, black leather pants and small boots. She looked mature yet cute. Plus, she had a good foundation, so I was a little amazed. I thought that Zhang Qishan must get a lot of attention when she walks on the street.

I hadn't gone out for several days, my hair was unkempt and I was too lazy to clean up. I was as sloppy as I could be. Compared with her, I really felt like finding a rat hole to crawl into.

"How did you come?"

Zhang Qishan opened the door and walked in, as if he was at home. He took off his coat and threw it on the sofa. He didn't care about my messy house. He sat on the sofa and said, "Don't you welcome me? Of course I came to play with you."

I looked at her with contempt, thinking to myself, you are not here to have fun with me, you are obviously here for your 2,000 yuan reward.

I didn't expose her, but counted out two thousand yuan from my wallet and handed it to Zhang Qishan, saying, "I was going to look for you, but since you're here, I'll just give you the money."

Zhang Qishan didn't hesitate to take the money from me. He smiled and put it in his bag without counting it. Then he said, "Have you been staying at home these days? The weather is so nice today, don't you plan to go out for a walk?"

"Why go? No matter how nice the weather is, it's still cold now. I'd rather be at home. Besides, I don't like to go shopping. The most I'll go out to is a bar or an internet cafe. It's better for me to stay at home and watch movies and play games."

Zhang Qishan rolled her eyes at me and said, "You have to go out for a walk anyway. Aren't you bored staying at home all the time? Come out for a walk with me."

I immediately refused and said, "Forget it. Shopping with you women is nothing more than going to a shopping mall or a clothing store. Do you want to tire me to death? If you want to go, go alone."

"No, who said I was going to the mall? Let's go to the Internet cafe to play games. The atmosphere there is so good."

I took a good shower, dressed myself, changed into new clothes, and followed Zhang Qishan out to the Internet cafe. Along the way, Zhang Qishan really attracted a lot of people's attention, but she didn't care and kept walking beside me and chattering.

I was a little puzzled. In my impression, girls rarely go to Internet cafes, right? Even if they go to Internet cafes, they just play games like Xuanwu or Audition. Although I was very reluctant, I finally followed Zhang Qishan to an Internet cafe not far from our home.

We found a place to connect online and sat down. I hadn't been to an Internet cafe for a long time, and suddenly I felt that playing games in an Internet cafe was the real atmosphere. So I directly opened the LOL box and logged into League of Legends.

But I turned around and looked at Zhang Qishan, and found that she had also opened the LOL box and was about to log in to the game. I immediately became interested and said, "So you also play League of Legends? Which zone? Come to our Black Rose, I will help you show off and fly."

Zhang Qishan turned around and smiled mysteriously at me, "I'm also from Black Rose, so it's a good opportunity for us to play together."

Before she finished her words, I heard a voice coming from the loudspeaker of the Internet cafe that made me blush: "The person sitting in seat XX is Diamond God from Black Rose. Welcome to this Internet cafe."

As soon as this broadcast was broadcast, Zhang Qishan immediately attracted the attention of most people around, and Zhang Qishan also stuck out his tongue at me and said, "With your skills, I'd better let me lead you."

I just felt my face getting hot at this moment. Looking at my account number with capitalized "Silver", I felt really ashamed. It turned out that this Zhang Qishan was actually a real great guy.

Even though I felt ashamed, I still played with her. Sure enough, we won the whole afternoon. No matter what position she played, she was almost invincible. Although I was just a supporting role for the whole afternoon, I was still happy from the bottom of my heart because we won so much.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was already past six in the afternoon. We finished the last game, and Zhang Qishan said she was a little hungry and asked me to treat her to a meal. In fact, I was also very hungry. We got off the computer and walked out of the Internet cafe. I saw a small noodle restaurant next to the Internet cafe. The tempting smell coming from it made Zhang Qishan and I unable to walk.

“Just eat here.”

Zhang Qishan nodded, and I walked into the noodle shop with her. This noodle shop, which was located next to the Internet cafe, was actually not very big. There were only four tables, and all four tables seemed a bit crowded. The distance between the tables and the long benches was very narrow. If a person was a little fat, he would probably not be able to squeeze in.

What is even more difficult for me to accept is that the hygiene here is extremely poor.

Not to mention that the floor was littered with balls of toilet paper where people had wiped their mouths, the tables also looked extremely greasy, as if they had not been wiped clean. I immediately lost my appetite and prepared to find somewhere else to eat.

Zhang Qishan grabbed me and said, "Let's eat here. I'm so hungry that I can't even move."

In that case, I had no choice but to choose this place. I took a rough look and it seemed that all four tables had guests. The two tables near the counter were already full, while the two tables near the door were a little more empty.

The table on the left is not exposed to the cold wind outside, and there is only one middle-aged man here. We were just about to choose this table to sit down and eat, but the middle-aged man who was eating seemed unwilling to sit with us. He immediately spat a mouthful of thick phlegm on the ground, then took off his shoes and ate while picking his feet. Seeing that there was a hole in his socks that had turned from white to black and gray, I suddenly lost my appetite and immediately pulled Zhang Qishan away from this disgusting thing and walked towards the table on the right side of the door.

There was only one bowl of unfinished noodles on the table on the right, with chopsticks lying on the edge of the bowl. I didn't know where the person eating was. There were a few used napkins on the seat here, and it was also blown by the cold wind outside. It should be the worst seat in this noodle shop.

But it was much better than eating with that disgusting thing on the left. I reluctantly went forward to pick up the napkins on the seat one by one, wiped it carefully with a napkin, and then sat down with Zhang Qishan.

But the distance between the table and the long bench was too narrow. When I walked in, I accidentally bumped into the table. The unfinished bowl of noodles on the table and the chopsticks that were originally on the edge fell to the ground when I bumped into them.

I thought to myself that I was too unlucky. Just as I was about to pick up the pair of chopsticks that fell on the ground, a thin middle-aged man came out of the bathroom and saw this scene. He immediately shouted at me angrily, "What do you mean?"

I immediately waved my hand and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, this table is too tight, I accidentally touched your chopsticks and they fell off, let me change a pair for you."

"No need! I can do it myself! Remember to be more careful next time, damn it!"

The middle-aged man had a ferocious expression on his face and sat back in his seat cursing. He took out another pair of disposable chopsticks from the chopstick holder and started to eat noodles with big mouthfuls.

Neither Zhang Qishan nor I said anything. After all, we were in the wrong first, so it was only right that we should be criticized.

Five or six minutes later, the boss brought up the beef noodles for Zhang Qishan and me. Although the hygiene of this noodle shop was very poor, the noodles were delicious, with a fragrant aroma and very tempting color. Zhang Qishan and I immediately felt hungry and were ready to pick up chopsticks to start eating, but at this moment, I found that there were no disposable chopsticks in the chopstick holder. The last one had been taken away by the middle-aged man opposite us.

The boss muttered something about why the chopsticks were used up so quickly, and then quickly brought a bunch of disposable chopsticks and put them in the chopstick holder. Zhang Qishan and I started eating. We were already very hungry, and the noodles were so delicious. Although I had only eaten less than half, I had the urge to have another bowl.

But at this moment, I suddenly heard the middle-aged man sitting opposite me, his breathing became heavier and heavier, and his throat seemed to be stuck by something, which sounded so uncomfortable.

I looked up in confusion, and suddenly saw a hand reaching out from the opposite side and grabbing my collar forcefully. Then I saw that the thin middle-aged man in front of me was covering his throat with his other hand. His lips had turned purple, his face was flushed, and he tried hard to open his mouth. It seemed that he could not breathe!

“Save me! Save me!”
