Chapter 5 Can’t See Your Back
The only small problem is that you may go hungry if you spend all your savings.
After much thought, the only option was to continue the original owner's "job" and make money by copying for others.
Gu Lu’s thoughts yesterday: I worked hard before the time travel, and I still worked hard after the time travel. Doesn’t that mean the time travel was in vain? Get the remaining "projects" done and it will no longer be possible to repeat cheap labor!
Gu Lu’s thoughts today: I’m sorry I spoke a little too loudly yesterday.
"Then come on, go to the Internet cafe after class every day and work hard for two hours, and you can finish it in about a week." Gu Lu called the editorial department of "Story Club" this morning to inquire about the royalties.
If your work is selected, you will receive a reward of 120 per thousand words (before tax).
The answer can be obtained using relatively high-end mathematical equations. If he passes all seven articles, he will receive more than 4,000 manuscript fees. For Gu Lu's current situation, it can completely solve the urgent need.
Don’t be afraid of not having a job. After all, we are about to take the high school entrance examination and there will be lots of test papers every day.
Penalty copying of test papers is also part of Gu Lu's business. From this aspect, he must thank the teachers for creating the demand.
"Has anyone copied the math paper?"
"Old rules."
"Do you want to do it or not?"
Three sentences stunned a young man.
Zhang Yudong has the best family conditions in the entire fifth class. His father is a senior engineer, his mother runs a company, and he is a poor student in love.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't copy these before?" Zhang Yudong asked.
"What is our relationship?" Gu Lu asked Zhang Yudong.
“Classmate?” Zhang Yudong asked.
"My parents, you are my parents, can I refuse your offer?" Gu Lu said, "I was just talking nonsense before I woke up."
"No no. No, I don’t need food, clothing, and parents. I have a son." Zhang Yudong rejected the big boy in front of him.
Indeed, both were poor students. Zhang Yudong had an outgoing personality and many friends. More importantly, he was rich and generous. He was basically at the top of the contempt chain of poor students.
The two agreed on the terms, and Zhang Yudong handed a chemistry paper and a Chinese language paper to Gu Lu, and directly and openly paid the full payment of two yuan.
Why look for Zhang Yudong first? Because this guy is definitely a quality customer.
I don’t know if your childhood and mine are the same, but according to Gu Lu’s memory, what Zhang Yudong said about “having a son” was not the sudden “calling daddy” that boys said.
Both parties agreed and voluntarily promoted this relationship. Zhang Yudong's son works outside the home, and both of them are called "dad" and "eldest son" in private.
Not surprisingly, there were many relationships between siblings, mother and son, brother and sister in the class. Although Gu Lu didn't understand, he was greatly shocked.
If you are still confused, it is not a bad idea to think of it as "playing house with spies". Oh no, if there are no spies, just play house.
“Let’s not talk about anything else. When we grow up and look back, wouldn’t calling someone of the same age mom or dad really make you touch your toes with embarrassment?” Gu Lu had a question in his mind.
The fourth period was a physical education class. Before the students could rush out of the classroom, the English teacher walked in and said, "The physical education teacher is not feeling well today, so he asked for leave and asked me to take over."
The physical education teacher, who looks like a strong man about 1.8 meters tall, is really weak. He has been feeling unwell this week, Gu Lu thought.
"Alas." The students were all mourning.
Today’s English class starts with writing words silently. The English teacher’s surname is Tai. She is an aunt who is almost fifty years old. Because of her strict teaching style, students are often made to stand, so they have been given various nicknames. "Tai buck teeth", "old witch (different from the math teacher's old witch because she likes to dress up)", "instant noodles head"...
Tai Taishen is the most widely circulated, in Sichuan and Chongqing dialects. God means "sick in the brain".
At this moment, Teacher Tai is patrolling strictly, and his eyes will experience transitions from sharpness to dullness to indifference, corresponding to middle-achieving students, top students, and poor students respectively. There is a saying among poor students, "Failure in English means I am patriotic." It is not known who said it, so poor students all hand in blank papers when writing from dictation.
It turns out that I have copied many English homework books in the three years of junior high school. It can even be said that the whole class, not the whole grade, is in the top three. But Gu Lu traveled through time and saw these words, just like the song, "Am I in love for the first time again?" , It’s impossible for me to fall in love for the first time again...”
Personal experience tells us that no matter how many years of struggle for survival, performance cannot be improved.
Class begins after dictating. Teacher Tai is still very good and is one of the few special teachers in No. 37 Middle School.
Zhou Lin, the deskmate, did not eat any snacks, which made Gu Lu feel a little pity.
“I am simply the ancient Greek god in charge of copying homework!” Gu Lu found that he was faster than his original self.
Classes at No. 37 Middle School ended at 12:10. As a day student, Gu Lu had more than an hour of extracurricular activities at noon.
Haha, you may not be able to see Gu Lu’s back at the school sports day, but you definitely won’t be able to see his back during school hours!
The whole process from the time the teacher walks out of the classroom to looking at Lu to leaving the school does not take more than five minutes.
The original person doesn’t know where there is a black Internet cafe, but he knows where there is a game arcade.
It is not an arcade, but a place with more than a dozen handheld consoles ps2 or ps3, as well as large-screen TVs.
You can play for an hour for two and a half yuan. The shop owner is very powerful, so he is affectionately called the "fat boss" by the students.
The games Fat Boss can provide are limited, such as "Grand Theft Auto Series", "Digimon Fighting Evolution 2", "Rampage Mountain Bike", "Metal Slug Series", "God of War Series", etc.
Even so, junior high school students flock to it. If they don’t run faster after school in the afternoon, they won’t be able to grab a spot.
Fan Xiaotian also invited Gu Lu to play twice. He loves Digimon and Rogue the most. The only drawback is that the game room cannot be saved. Unless you bring your own game memory card to save the progress, it will be the same every time you come. Start from scratch.
"Huhu——" Gu Lu ran to the place panting.
"No rush, no rush, not many people come at noon, there is a seat." The fat boss laughed.
“Boss, it’s still two yuan to use your computer to access the Internet, right?” Gu Lu asked.
“What two dollars? It’s two dollars and a half for an hour of playing games.” The fat boss said immediately.
Gu Lu pretended to be confused, "Wasn't it still two yuan before?"
"It was two yuan for a long time before? Playing games with you is the same price, two and a half yuan." The fat boss said.
"It's okay." Gu Lu was happy. Compared with going to a black Internet cafe that costs three yuan an hour, he saved one-sixth of the Internet fee.
The fat boss does not open an Internet cafe. This computer is for personal use. Regardless of the configuration, it is only enough to watch videos and play Tieba.
When there is no machine, occasionally students will pay to play 4399.
After paying and sitting on the plastic chair, Gu Lu clicked on the keyboard——
[There is a thick envelope in my mailbox. I opened the envelope and counted the money inside. Every penny was a penny.
Also inside the envelope was a note with the target's name and where he could be found, along with a passport photo. I cursed a few times. Don't know why I'm scolding. I'm a veteran, and veterans shouldn't be like this, but I just couldn't help it. No, I recognized the person in the photo without looking at the name: Charlotte.
Bassanio Charlotte, Nobel Peace Prize winner, a good man. The only good man I've ever known in my life. When it comes to character, probably no one in the world can match him.

This article is a story about Gu Lu’s decision not to change his address to China, so he submitted it as a foreign story. After all, "Story Club" has a column for foreign stories. .
There are two things to think about. First, there is a killer in the country, and he wants to assassinate high officials... I don't know what the current censorship situation is, but Gu Lu is scared by the God of Harmony.
Secondly, the small changes Gu Lu made were in the name...
