Lin Si sighed, giving up the idea of smelling the pheromones on his body.
The phone beside the quilt buzzed and vibrated.
Y: [Are you sleeping?]
Lin Si: [No, no, have you eaten yet?]
Y: [Well, I've already eaten it.]
Lin Si immediately asked him: [Then shall we go to the virtual world to play?]
Y: [Well.]
After a brief loading screen passed, Lin Si saw the bedroom clearly, and Y beside him also sat up and said, "Good evening."
Lin Si grabbed his hand, shook it, and said with a smile: "Good evening!" He turned on the special effect light in the bedroom, and in the hazy light and shadow that circulated, Lin Si sat cross-legged on the bed, and grabbed Y with the other hand, " I haven't talked to you much today, I miss you a little."
His palm can't completely cover Y, but the whole Y is covered in his eyes.
"Baby." Y called him softly.
Lin Si smiled and showed a row of white teeth, rushed over to hug him, and whispered, "Did you hear what I was going to tell you yesterday?"
"I guessed it." Y said.
Lin Si curled up his lips: "Then you didn't hear everything you said this afternoon."
"I didn't hear everything." Y put his hands on his waist, and the gentleman's waist supported him.
"Then tell me what you didn't finish this afternoon." Lin Si said.
Y patted him on the back: "I'll take you there now."
Lin Si immediately jumped under the bed and reached out to pull him: "Let's go!"
Before they went out, Y asked him: "Do you like this place?"
Lin Si looked back: "Is this a one-bedroom apartment?"
"Um."
"I like it, the bedroom is so beautiful, and there is a big balcony." Lin Si said.
Y: "Then buy it in a few days."
Lin Si: "??? Have you already started planning where to buy a house with a daily salary of 5 gold coins?"
Y smiled and said, "Yes."
They went downstairs, exchanged gold coins for silver coins at the convenience store, and took the tram to the Wanqi Market in the northernmost part of Queenstown.
"This is..." Lin Si looked at each store, "Sell chess boards?"
Y took his hand, walked to the end of the market, opened the curtain on the door, and led him in.
"Welcome to Chess Street," the boss greeted at the door, "Please come inside."
Evening is the busiest time, the small tables in the chess and card street are full of people, Y whispers in Lin Si's ear: "The fixed area on the left is the human airport, enter with coins, as long as you win the human machine, you can get Gold coin rewards, the higher the difficulty, the more rewards."
"On the right hand side is the player's field, custom betting."
Lin Si walked to the left and looked at the tables one by one, chess, military chess, go, international chess, bridge...
"Can the two of us play the man-machine together?" Lin Si asked.
Y shook his head: "Only one person can participate, the remaining one is watching the battle."
Lin Si nodded: "Then let's try?"
Y glanced back: "I'll come back to the man-machine later, there are a lot of free people now, go and open the player board."
He walked over, sat cross-legged at a go table, and pulled a mat for Lin Si.
"Hi." He greeted his opponent.
Opposite was a young man, Lin Si looked at his face and vaguely remembered a certain model, guessing that he probably had his face pinched.
"Two people?" The man was a little disdainful, "It doesn't matter, two people are fine, anyway, they can't win."
"I'll come." Y held Lin Si's hand, "My little gentleman only watches the game and won't disturb the chess game."
Lin Si, who was still concentrating on studying the model's face, slammed his heart, and then a bunch of flames burst out from the place where the beating speed was the fastest, burning his limbs and bones, and gradually spreading to his cheeks and earlobes.
He moved closer to Y even with the mat, and rubbed his hand on the back of Y's hand several times, expressing his liking.
The man saw their small movements, and snorted softly from his nasal cavity: "If you want to place a bet, hurry up."
Y stretched out his hand: "I'll follow you."
The man pressed 25 gold coins, Y raised his eyebrows: "I thought you were very confident that you could beat me."
Y pressed 100 gold coins, and Lin Si had to take a deep breath.
"On the first day, I was so loud." The man made up the remaining 75 gold coins, "Be careful to lose until you change the number and try again."
The chessboard is opened on the desktop electronic screen, and Y holds white stones.
Lin Si didn't know anything about Go, so he watched them silently, moving back and forth, but the naked eyes could see that there were fewer and fewer black pieces on the board, white pieces occupied the board, and the face of the person on the other side of the table became more and more ugly.
Two minutes later, three words popped up on the electronic screen: Bai Zisheng.
Lin Si hugged Y's arm: "Win!"
They accepted each other's 100 gold coins, and Lin Si smiled and said to each other, "Thank you!"
"Another plate!" said the man.
Y turned his head and asked Lin Si: "Will it be boring?"
"No!" Lin Sixin said, earning 100 gold coins in less than 20 minutes, it won't be boring at all, okay
They started the second game again, Y continued to bet 100 gold coins, the opponent was riding a tiger, and only pressed 50 gold coins.
This game lasted longer than the last one, and it took half an hour for Y to win and get 50 gold coins.
The man was not willing to press any more, Lin Si and Y also felt that his gold coins were not enough, so they changed the chess table.
After earning another 300 gold coins at the chess table, Y didn't leave, and directly opened a chess table in the player's field, borrowed a piece of paper from the shopkeeper, and pasted it aside.
[Prize pool gold coins 1500 gold coins, all chess and card categories are optional, you can take them all if you win a game]
"Is it really possible?" Lin Si asked Y in a low voice.
"I don't know," Y said, "If we lose everything, we will have to live in a garbage dump."
Lin Si smiled lightly, leaned on Y's shoulder and waited: "Then you are ready to be a waiter in the restaurant with me tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, someone was jealous of the reward and came to the poker table.
"Please pay 300 gold coins at the beginning." Lin Si said to him, "As long as you win a game, all our 1500 gold coins will belong to you."
The entry fee is not cheap, but there are players who are willing to take a gamble.
However, Y didn't lose a single game that night. He was very smart. He didn't win the opponent directly, but gave the opponent some hope of winning, so that they could have an illusion that they could be evenly matched and regret losing in the end.
So there are always people who want to challenge and feel that they have a chance to win gold coins.
"A person can only challenge once a week," Lin Si refused to repeat the challenge, "Don't be addicted to the chess game."
After that, whether it was chess, go or backgammon, Y still never lost.
Lin Si was only focused on checking the balance of gold coins on the panel, and his hands changed from holding Y's arm to holding half of his body, wishing to stuff the little cornucopia of Y's name into his pocket.
"The event is over." Lin Si rejected the few people who came later, turned off the electronic screen, and closed the stall smoothly.
Y saw that the corners of his mouth didn't drop when he smiled all night, so he couldn't help but pat the top of his head: "Are you happy?"
"Happy!" Lin Si opened the panel to show him, "More than 8,400... We must be the richest people in the virtual world now!"
Y led him around the chess field and asked, "Do you want to play?"
"But I can only play backgammon, and I'm not good at bridge..." Lin Si said, "I'll lose money."
Y pointed to the four-player table in the upper right corner: "Where's flying chess?"
Lin Si rubbed his fingers: "Then... shall we play?"
Y takes him there.
Just when he was playing backgammon, Lin Si grabbed his arm as if he was about to speak but stopped eager to try.
Their positions changed, Lin Si sat in the middle of the table, and Y stood by his side.
The three people at the same table had heard about the big devil who started the game tonight, and seeing them sitting across from each other, they couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive about them.
"Five... five guineas?" they said.
This was exactly what Lin Si wanted, he threw 5 gold coins into the prize pool and started flying chess.
Theirs is the blue plane.
For two minutes, Lin Si pressed the corner of his mouth: "I was beaten and sent home."
Ten minutes later, Lin Si lay down on the edge of the table decadently: "I'm going home again..."
Twenty minutes later, Lin Si hugged Y and cried loudly: "I was already at the door and he beat me back..."
Y smiled and held his dice-throwing hand, and lightly threw it on the electronic screen, throwing a six.
Lin Si: "!"
The little plane he just came home took off again!
In the end, with the help of Ou Huang Y, Lin Si managed to stay out of the bottom place, and got the third place, only losing three gold coins.
He touched his hand and left Chess Street: "Why are such stinky hands..."
Y led him and walked in the splendid night market.
It was past midnight, Lin Si and him were standing on the side of the road waiting for the tram, and asked, "Are we still coming tomorrow?"
"In a few days," Y said, "these people know us, and they will come tomorrow. There won't be so many people coming to challenge us."
Lin Si nodded, and asked worriedly, "Will we be sanctioned for making so much money?"
"To control the number of people and gold coins, a person can only challenge once, 300 yuan each time, not to the point of being sanctioned." Y said.
Lin Si hugged his arm: "Why are you so good at chess?"
"I have done chess and card software before, and I have to study the gameplay before designing the algorithm." Y said.
Lin Si sighed: "You are all so amazing..."
"Us?" Y asked him.
"Oh, and my boss, the one I told you about before." Lin Si said, "He also understands the computer industry very well, and today he talked with me about the virtual world of Paobao."
Y was silent for a long time, and asked: "The boss you said you didn't like?"
"Well," Lin Si thought for a while, "but now I feel that he is quite nice, and we also shook hands and made peace. Although we are still a little uncomfortable getting along together, it is already much better than before."
Y asked him: "Really?"
"Well, when I didn't like him before, I thought he hated me everywhere, but when he said I was nice, I also thought he was nice." Lin Si thought of something, shook Y's arm, and said, "Yes Already! I know what my pheromone smells like today!"
Y looked completely unaware, and asked, "What's the taste?"
Lin Si looked around cautiously, and leaned over to Y's ear, as if to say some terrible secret: "Milk! It tastes like milk! It's delicious!"
Y smiled lightly, brushing Lin Si's ear like a feather, warm and itchy.
Lin Si lowered his head, blushing and said, "Why are you laughing at me... Is the milk smell normal?"
"No, it's very special," Y said, "I like it very much."
Lin Si looked up, his eyes filled with anticipation: "Really?"
"Well, no one will dislike it." Y said.
Lin Si smiled with satisfaction, and added to him: "I heard that there is also the smell of freesia, which is also very fragrant."
The two of them laughed together on the midnight tram platform.
A white kitten passed by with its paws in front of it, and stood under the stop sign, watching them.
Lin Si noticed it and shook Y's hand: "There's a cat."
"It should be a stray cat." Y knelt down and stretched out his hand.
The cat came over, rubbed against his hand, and whispered "meow".
Lin Si hid behind Y and peeked from the side: "How come there are stray cats in the virtual world?"
"The pet system exists." Y said, "Do you want to raise it?"
The kitten meowed again, Lin Sixin seemed to be scratched by it with its paw, but still did not approach.
"Why are you afraid of small animals?" Y put his arms around the stray cats.
Lin Si pursed her lips, and looked down at the neat floor tiles: "They can bite people, and if they are bitten, they need to be vaccinated. I don't like injections."
Y's obviously bewildered expression made Lin Si a little guilty, he said, "But I want to try—"
Before he finished speaking, Y's other arm wrapped him in his arms: "Baby, everything will get better in the future."
The author has something to say: Lu Yan: Left-handed wife, right-handed cat, winner in life.
Let me tell you, the setting is that I can't smell my pheromone!
