Chapter 20 Sega Apartment Building
Luo Xi believes that Liu Mao is very important.
The reason why he thinks so is actually very simple, because he used a memory card to change Liu Mao from a cleaner to a memory collector, which actually shook the level scene managed by Lao Wang The confusion caused them to pass the level in an abnormal way.
In other words, they were able to clear the level from the initial scene entirely because of Liu Mao.
Luo Xi always feels that no matter what he does, the first thing is to grasp the key points.
Especially when you are confused and have no clue, you need to grasp the key points that you already know.
So, he didn’t go to Guo Zening or Zhang Yanan, but went to Liu Mao immediately.
"I don't know where Brother Mao lives." Wu Rui, who was in charge of driving, said, while Luo Xi quickly gave an address.
“Have you been to Brother Mao’s house?” Wu Rui was curious.
“No, I just heard him say it once.”
"I said it once and you wrote it down?"
"I have a pretty good memory."
Wu Rui drove very fast and she didn't seem to know anything at all. It’s called civilized driving, starting floor oil, overtaking floor oil, Her feet are either not stepped on or stepped on all the way.
In short, the way this woman likes to talk dirty and the way she drives is completely different from her original sweet appearance. The summary is her appearance. Sweet and wild at heart.
Ten minutes later.
"We're here!"
Beautiful braking, Wu Rui pressed the electronic handbrake.
Luo Xi opened the door and got out of the car, then looked at the community in front of him.
This is a high-rise building.
It is an apartment property, but an internal road entering the community is blocked and there is a construction barrier with the words 'Emergency Construction by the Gas Company' hanging on it.
You can hear the sound of some ground digging machines running, it's very noisy.
"Is it right here?" It was Wu Rui's first time here. She locked the car and walked to Luo Xi.
Of course, she always carries a knife in her waist and a can of anti-wolf spray in her coat pocket.
When in danger, spray it first, then stab your throat with a knife, or insert your eyeballs.
“I haven’t been to Brother Mao’s house either. He has two children at home. It's quite stressful to pay back the mortgage." Luo Xi had heard Liu Mao complain about this more than once, and when working, Brother Mao often had headaches because of the various indicators set by Mr. Du.
As a worker, the indicator is KPI. Failure to complete this thing will definitely affect income, and income is what Mao Ge values the most.
But Brother Mao is also a loyal person.
Unlike other team leaders, he will not be too demanding on the employees in the team. On the contrary, he mostly leads by example, and he will never ask others to work overtime before he leaves first.
In addition, he is extremely defensive and protects his own people.
So Luo Xi respects and admires Liu Mao very much.
"I've also heard that Brother Mao and his wife seem to work in the community. They are relatively free and can easily take care of the children, but their income is very low, less than 2,000 yuan. It's really hard for them to support their family with their combined income. But Brother Mao’s daughter and son are both good at studies and are among the top students in the class.”
Wu Rui is a woman, and women have a circle of women, and she is also in Liu Mao’s group, so she will naturally do it on weekdays. Chat about various topics with other girlfriends.
"But the problem is, this world is false, so what's the point of them working hard to pay off the mortgage?" Luo Xi suddenly said something, which stunned Wu Rui, She immediately felt that it made perfect sense. "But Brother Mao and Sister Mao don't know. They just work hard and try their best to run their small family and protect the hard-won happiness. This... This is so sad. All their efforts are in vain. It's meaningless, so we must escape and return to the real reality." Wu Rui clenched her fists at this time.
There was some emotion in her eyes. It was obvious that she was in a very excited mood. This was definitely not because of talking about Brother Mao and his wife. It was just a The trigger, she thought, was her own business.
"Go up." Luo Xi didn't say much.
He rarely expresses emotion. He just thought of how hard Brother Mao and his wife worked so hard, so he said this.
In fact, there was no fluctuation in his heart, but it aroused Wu Rui's emotions.
Then why does she have to find the real reality?
The two walked in tandem through the narrow passage left by the edge of the construction fence.
This apartment building has ten floors and is quite old. It is one of the earliest apartment building projects in the city. Most of these apartment buildings are still occupied by tenants, some for long-term rentals and some for short-term rentals. However, Any place with many tenants is bound to be dirty and messy.
After all, it is not your own home, so it is not uncommon to encounter unconscious and selfish people who throw away garbage, graffiti, and leave things in the corridors.
Before this, Luo Xi called Liu Mao several times, but he still got through and no one answered.
This is not normal.
That’s why Luo Xi decided to come and take a look first, because Liu Mao himself is very special.
He is a 'cleaner', and he is a cleaner who allows them to pass the customs in an 'outside the rules' way. Therefore, in terms of importance, he definitely exceeds Zhang Yanan and Guo Zening, who have also lost contact.
As for the latter two, Luo Xi actually had no way to find them.
As expected, Zhang Yanan died in the explosion on the No. 45 bus. She did not have a memory card and would inevitably become amnesiac; and Guo Zening now knew through some gossip on the Internet that Metro Line 2 had stopped. Fortunately, but no news came out, which means that the official blocked the news.
But because of this, the situation there is probably the most troublesome. Besides, Luo Xi can't enter the closed subway line, so Guo Zening can only rely on himself.
There was a desk from the property management company at the entrance of the apartment building, but there was no one there at the moment. Just when Luo Xi and Wu Rui entered the building, a landline phone on the desk suddenly rang just right.
Ring ring ring!
Ring ring ring!
The sound is extremely harsh.
Luo Xi turned his head and glanced, narrowed his eyes, and stopped.
“What’s wrong?” Wu Rui was stunned.
Then he looked at Luo Xi and walked to the table on the side of the door.
"What are you doing? You're not going to answer this call, are you? This has nothing to do with us, and it's not polite to answer other people's calls. Let's go." Wu Rui whispered, but then Luo Xi called her Pointing to a place, she glanced at it, then immediately shrank her pupils and fell silent.
The landline that kept ringing looked normal. It was just a telephone. However, the telephone line connected to the landline was stretched to the side. It was obviously someone. Tear off.
An old-fashioned telephone that was not connected to the telephone line suddenly rang.
What does this mean?
Luo Xi thought for a while and answered the phone under Wu Rui's surprised eyes.
"Dear Memories Collectors, I am the 'Administrator of the Sega Apartment Building'. You can call me Carrot. If you enter here by mistake, please leave immediately, otherwise you will enter if you go further. My level scene; and if you come to challenge my scene, I will explain the basic rules to you after you sign the contract."
Luo Xi was stunned when he listened to the voice on the microphone.
