The next morning, Dr. Qin completed the discharge procedures for Xie Mingzhe, and Xie Mingzhe went to negotiate with the insurance company to settle the medical expenses.

The medical insurance system in this world is extremely perfect. The critical medical insurance he bought at the beginning happened to cover accidents, and all medical expenses were reimbursed. Xie Mingzhe finally put down the stone in his heart. The so-called "debt-free and light-weight" means that although I am a little poorer and have no savings, I have no external debt. If I only need to support myself, the pressure will naturally be much less.

After a busy morning, he was finally discharged from the hospital. Xie Mingzhe thanked Dr. Qin, turned around and walked out of the hospital's door.

The sunlight outside was a bit dazzling. After sleeping for a month and standing in the sunlight, Xie Mingzhe's head suddenly became dizzy. He covered his head and took a few deep breaths, and the world in front of him gradually became clear.

All kinds of hovering vehicles floated quickly through the air, and the world filled with high-rise buildings seemed to be covered with a layer of mechanized ice.

Xie Mingzhe stood on the street for a while, the unfamiliar high-tech environment made him deeply feel the fact that he had been reborn.

Say goodbye to 2018 AD, rebirth in 3001, and become another down-and-out boy Xie Mingzhe. Although he got a bad hand at the beginning, it doesn't matter. With two memories, he is confident that he can live well in this world by his own abilities.

Xie Mingzhe took a deep breath, with a relieved smile on his face, turned and walked towards the nearby public suspension station.

Taking the suspension car to the terminal in the suburbs, Xie Mingzhe walked to a dilapidated residential building according to his memory. When he came to the tenth floor, he saw a middle-aged woman waiting for him at the door. The middle-aged woman was obviously fat, but she was walking on a pair of very thin high heels. As soon as she saw Xie Mingzhe, she rolled her eyes fiercely and said coolly, "You finally came back, I thought you were deliberately disappearing for rent escape. !"

Xie Mingzhe handed her his case information and said apologetically, "Aunt Zhang, I didn't mean to. I've been living in the hospital this month."

Aunt Zhang didn't take the case, and looked at him sideways: "Hospital? You are making such a bad excuse. Could it be that you want to rely on my rent?"

The sarcasm in her tone was very obvious, and she obviously looked down on him as a poor boy. Xie Mingzhe simply transferred the 800 yuan rent to her in person, and said, "I'm sorry, it's been a month's delay, I've caused you trouble." No matter what the other party's attitude is, the rent arrears is indeed his own fault.

The middle-aged woman received the transfer and immediately said, "What are your plans for the rent in August?"

Thinking of the balance of 200 in the bank card, Xie Mingzhe hurriedly said: "I have some difficulties recently. Do you think I can pay the rent in August when I start school?" Attitude, it should not be so easy to talk about.

"Wait for you to start school?" Sure enough, Aunt Zhang raised her voice and gave him a contemptuous look, "Either pay it now, or move it out for me immediately! If you can't pay the rent, you can go to the shelter of a charity organization, don't come here. Find me!"

"..." Xie Mingzhe frowned slightly, he had seen this kind of mean petty citizen a lot, especially Xie Mingzhe of this world, who had suffered a lot of indifference since he was a child. He also didn't want to humbly beg others, he simply nodded and said, "Okay, I'll move out as soon as possible."

She thought that the teenager would beg her, but the other party was so straightforward, Aunt Zhang raised her head suspiciously and suddenly met the bright eyes of the teenager.

That look was completely different from the depressed teenager she knew at first, but instead had a clear conscience and confidence and calmness.

Seeing her raise her head, the boy bent his eyes and smiled: "If we don't say goodbye, we should never see each other again. Thank you for your care for me some time ago."

Polite and calm goodbye, so self-restrained, actually embarrassed Aunt Zhang who said mean things.

Looking at his thin and straight back when he turned around and entered the door, Aunt Zhang suddenly felt a very strange feeling in her heart - I always felt that this young man was much more energetic than before, and he looked more handsome when he smiled, and he was not as dejected as before. just hate it. It's a pity, no matter how handsome he looks, he's just a poor boy with no relatives and no reason. Could it be that salted fish can't turn around

Aunt Zhang resisted the awkwardness in her heart and turned to leave with a frown.

Xie Mingzhe swiped his card to enter the house.

The room is very small, except for the bathroom, there is almost no place to stay after the bed and wardrobe are placed in the rest, and his suitcase can only be placed under the bed. Xie Mingzhe leaned over and opened the suitcase, all of which were clothes, daily necessities, and a very old computer.

He has all the memories of the original owner, so he is not surprised to see these things.

After quickly packing up, he sat by the bed and turned on the computer, and searched for the keyword: "part-time job to make money".

Scanning all kinds of part-time information at a glance, his eyes quickly fell on a line of small characters mixed in it: "The Nirvana Studio near Teguang University is recruiting temporary employees, aged between 18-25 years old, men are preferred, meals are included. The monthly salary is 3,000 yuan.”

He matches the age and gender, and the location is near the school, which is convenient for part-time jobs in the future. More importantly, the "food and housing" rule can solve his current biggest dilemma. But what exactly does this studio do? Out of curiosity, Xie Mingzhe simply sent a text message on the site and asked politely, "What is the work content of the studio? I want to come over and apply for the job."

The other party quickly replied: "We are a game power-up studio, and our main business is the card repair and card training of Star Card Storm. It is required to have at least one year's experience in Star Card Storm and be familiar with all the game rules."

Xie Mingzhe: "..."

Your sister, post a job advertisement, but you don't write clearly about this key requirement!

Xie Mingzhe has never played Star Card Storm, but he is very familiar with the game booster. When he was in college, he used his spare time as a booster for League of Legends and Honor of Kings, and gave several clients the highest rank. Some e-sports clubs even approached him and invited him to become a professional player in an e-sports team, but at that time, his idea was to find a stable job after graduation, so he declined the other party.

In the future, there is actually a profession of "game booster" in the world

This old line, it should be easy to do. Thinking of this, Xie Mingzhe was a little excited, and quickly replied: "I have never played Star Card Storm, but I have been a booster for other games. I have been a power trainer for several years, and I am very familiar with the business. Can I apply for a job in your studio?"

The other party wondered: "What game?"

Xie Mingzhe thought that games such as League of Legends and Glory of Kings definitely do not exist in this world, and he did not dare to talk nonsense, so he made up casually: "The games I play are relatively small, but I have very rich experience in power leveling. I also have some understanding of the game of Card Storm, and I promise to learn it within two days."

The other party hesitated: "If you haven't played Star Card Storm, it will definitely affect our efficiency!"

Xie Mingzhe immediately took a step back: "Then I will be an intern for the first month, and I will only be paid half of my salary. Can you see it?"

The other party was surprised: "You mean, you can accept a salary of 1,500?"

Xie Mingzhe did not hesitate: "Yes!"

Mosquitoes are meat no matter how small they are. The price of crystal coins in this world is similar to the price of RMB in the earth era. 1500 monthly living expenses for college students is enough, and if you live frugally, you can still have some pockets left. If you are officially hired in the future, 3,000 a month, wouldn't that be nice? The key is that this studio is close to the school, and it includes food and accommodation. If the schedule is well arranged, you can also consider long-term part-time jobs.

Xie Mingzhe turned his head quickly and made up his mind: "Just give it 1500. I'll be an intern first, and you can hire me if you do well."

The other party quickly sent a message: "Come and try, see you at 2:30 in the afternoon."

Xie Mingzhe's eyes lit up: "Thank you, I will be there on time!"

***

At 2:30 in the afternoon, Xie Mingzhe came to the interview site with his packed suitcase.

In his original imagination, the power leveling studio was like a "dark Internet cafe", with a row of computers in a closed room, and a few dead houses with pimples staring at the computer screen, expressionless at the computer screen. typing on the keyboard.

However, when he arrived at the scene, he was taken aback - he saw neat helmets and a row of swivel seats placed side by side in the hall, and there was a large virtual LCD screen in the middle of the room, which constantly refreshed some data.

Looking at these high-tech things, Xie Mingzhe thought he had come to the space station in the sci-fi movie.

A twenty-seven- or eight-year-old youth came over with a cigarette in his mouth. The youth's hair was a little messy, and his shirt was wrinkled, as if he had picked it up from somewhere. The thick dark circles under his eyes indicated that he must not have slept well last night. . He glanced at the curious looking boy like a monster, and asked, "You're the guy who doesn't know how to play Star Card Storm, but came to apply for a job as a game booster?"

Xie Mingzhe nodded cheekily: "I have never played Star Card Storm, but I have been a booster of other games. The game has a solid foundation and can be learned quickly." He tried hard to sell himself.

The man laughed out loud, as if he had heard a very funny joke.

Xie Mingzhe was not ashamed, and met the other party's gaze calmly: "I'll try it first, if it doesn't work, I'll leave, give me a chance?"

The young man's eyes were sincere, and he was not at all stage frightened. The man had a good impression of this "courageous" guy, and he waved to him and said, "Okay, come here. It's actually not difficult to brush the materials, just follow it a few times."

As the man said, he took Xie Mingzhe into the next room and handed him a brand-new helmet: "Since you have been a power trainer, you should know the rules of our industry and fulfill the client's requirements as soon as possible, so you must be very familiar with this. game."

Xie Mingzhe nodded seriously: "Mmmm."

This helmet is very delicate. Xie Mingzhe studied it carefully for a while, understood how to wear the helmet, and asked, "Brother, what's your name?"

When the man heard him call him eldest brother sensible, he felt very comfortable, and his attitude improved a lot: "My surname is Chen, everyone calls me brother Chen, and you will call me that in the future. What about you, what's your name?"

"Xie Mingzhe, you can call me...Xiao Xie." Xie Mingzhe's nickname is actually "Azhe", which was called by a friend who had a good relationship in his previous life. It felt strange to call him Azhe when we first met, so let the other party call him Xiaoxie. Bar.

"Xiao Xie, you first create an account and enter the game for yourself. This game is not complicated. You can play it for a few hours." Brother Chen urged, "Before nine o'clock in the evening, come to me after you are familiar with the rules."

Xie Mingzhe said "Oh" and put on the helmet seriously.

After putting on the helmet, the world in front of me changed quickly. Several lines of characters floated in the air, which are different game login interfaces. It seems that this helmet can be connected to most holographic games. "Star Card Storm" ranks first. It is enough to see the status and popularity of "Star Card Storm" in the game industry.

Xie Mingzhe selected "Star Card Storm" with his hand.

A crisp system sound sounded in my ears, which sounded like a seven- or eight-year-old boy: "Welcome to the magical world of Star Cards! The system detects that you are logging in to the game for the first time, please create your account and bind your ID number. ."

Xie Mingzhe quickly followed the prompts to create an account.

System voice: "Please enter the character name and create your image in the Star Card World."

His own appearance was quickly imported into the game screen, as realistic as looking in a mirror. Xie Mingzhe looked at the "virtual" self in front of his eyes and marveled at the advanced technology of today's era.

He definitely won't play online games with his real image. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to meet acquaintances in the future

Xie Mingzhe thought for a moment and made some adjustments to the character's appearance - his height was reduced by ten centimeters, his weight increased by 30 pounds, his face was enlarged by a full circle, and a few beards were added. are kind.

As for the game ID, in order to make people feel very friendly, Xie Mingzhe took one—fat uncle.

At that time, he never thought that this name would set off a huge wave in the world of Star Cards.

When interviewed later, Xie Mingzhe faced the camera and smiled innocently: "The name Fat Uncle was really chosen by me at will, and it doesn't have any special meaning. If I knew earlier, I should have chosen a nicer name. It won't be called 'Fat God' and 'Fat God' by people."

Fans who saw that "Uncle Fat" was actually a handsome and sunny guy: "You big liar! Also our lovely and kind uncle fat!"

The opponents said "Haha" twice and gave him a nickname in private: the very skinny Xie Mingzhe.

Short name: Pippi.
