I may have played a fake fantasy

Chapter 1 Ye Shang, who is he?
2017年1月27日，除夕夜，H市怡乐“小区”11幢203号房。

The reason why the community is in quotation marks is because it is hard to say whether it is a community or not. Generally, a community should be a high-rise residence with a wall around it and a security booth at the entrance and exit.The Yile community is actually a self-built house of local residents. Although it is built like a single-family villa with 4 floors, and the community also has walls and security booths, some people still cannot use the word "community" to call it here. .

Ye Shang belongs to "this group of people". He is a foreigner. The current tenant of room 203 lives alone, so he rents the smallest room with the lowest rent.The room is only a little over ten square meters, and after placing a bed, a computer desk, and a wardrobe, there is only one aisle.

However, Ye Shang is not picky. He is already satisfied with having an independent space and a built-in bathroom. When he was fooling around, he did game leveling for several years. Needless to say, the living environment is worse than it is now. I don't know how much.

Besides, Ye Shang, his appearance... Forget it, let's not mention it.

... Well, this is a place you can't get around, let's just talk about it briefly.Ye Shang's appearance, strictly speaking (that is, the aesthetic standard has been lowered to a very low level), is neither handsome nor ugly, just an ordinary person, among the shameful piles...you can still find it, after all, you have lived in the house for too long, and your eating habits Not good, big appetite, so the body is a bit fat (commonly known as fat), so that it will not be unrecognizable by acquaintances.

After talking about his appearance, let's look at other places. Ye Shang is not tall, about 1.7 meters, and has only left and no right. For men, he is called a second-class disabled.

In addition to his size, Ye Shang also has mild myopia, which is the kind of people who can't see clearly after taking off their glasses, but not to the point where they can't take care of themselves or even go blind. For a person who can't live without a computer, this It's not a surprise either.

Some people may ask, is a person who spends a lot of time online every day an otaku?The answer is no, Ye Shang has a job, to be precise, he used to have a job.

After graduating from college, Ye Shang, like many people, resolutely engaged in a non-professional job. Ye Shang didn’t know why the others didn’t pursue the major they studied. Anyway, he couldn’t do it. Who told him to study nursing Woolen cloth.

That's right, Ye Shang was originally a male nurse. Leaving aside all kinds of subjective prejudices, male nurses are still good in terms of job hunting and salary, but if Ye Shang doesn't change careers, the ending may not be so good.It would be cruel if you met a nurse in the hospital who skipped classes all day long and couldn't tell the appendix from left to right, and expected him to pierce the blood vessel with one needle and let you infuse smoothly.

In order to prevent the already tense relationship between doctors and patients from further deteriorating, and also to prevent himself from being involved in a life-threatening lawsuit, Ye Shang had no choice but to abandon medicine and pursue literature.

Ye Shang, who practiced in the hospital for a few months and worked as a nurse for a month after graduation, went to the south to look for a job. Because he was not motivated and lazy, he managed to find a decent job after exhausting all his money. , and finally had to find a "Fantasy Westward Journey" studio when I couldn't afford the rent, which solved the problem of food and accommodation.

In the next few years, Ye Shang went to several studios. The shortest one worked for a few months, and the longest one worked for more than a year. In the end, most of them left because the studio closed down or wanted to find a better future for himself. .

After graduating for a few years, he didn't have any serious work experience. In 13 years, he heard that a good buddy from high school had come to H City, so he rushed to join him.It's not that he expects his buddy who is a game planner to help him. The key is that he is away from home. With such an acquaintance and friend, he can feel at ease.

Even though Ye Shang had a rough few years, he has also worked for a large domestic game company. Of course, with Ye Shang's level, he definitely cannot do planning, art, technology, etc., so his position is First-line customer service.Although he was later reluctantly promoted to the second line due to the resignation of many people in the team and the unpopularity of his team, the work pressure was too great and Ye Shang resigned after working for a few months.

But no matter what, working in that game company for more than a year can be regarded as accumulating some serious work experience and gaining a lot of insight. After I come out, I don't need to find some work in the studio.However, after resigning from the game company, Ye Shang didn't find a very good job. The better ones could still be called "operations", and the ones that almost returned to the customer service of his old bank.

This is not the main factor that caused Ye Shang to live such a decadent life. The real reason is that Ye Shang is not very (according to the actual situation, the word "how" can be removed) seeks to make progress, and every time he leaves his job, he will take a few days off. Months, don't spend your savings, and resolutely don't look for a job.In the end, it was hard to get back, and he even had the idea of ​​credit card overdraft, so he had more rest time, but the credit card limit was getting lower and lower until there was very little left.

……

New Year's Eve should be a day for family reunion, but Ye Shang, who is heavily in debt, in order not to let his debt increase further, and in order not to go home to cause trouble for his family or himself, he chose as in previous years. Chinese New Year in other places.But how can a person celebrate the New Year, especially a guy like Ye Shang who can't do without games?That's why, playing online games is one of his New Year's repertoires.

Ye Shang has not played many online games, but after actually playing them, his enthusiasm is very high, and he will basically not give up.I have been exposed to online games since I was in junior high school. I played the famous domestic online game "Fantasy Westward Journey". The requirements for operation are not high, so Ye Shang has been playing the game since the public beta until now.

At 8:5 in the evening, Ye Shang, who was watching the Spring Festival Gala while playing games at [-], suddenly received a call from his mother. After bringing the team back to the city, Ye Shang picked up his mobile phone and connected.

"What are you doing?" Mom asked casually.

"Watching the Spring Festival Gala." Ye Shang didn't tell the truth, because now he's 30, and if he talks about playing games, his mother will definitely get nagging.

"How about playing games?" Jiang was still hot, and Ye Shang's mother exposed Ye Shang's lies with one word.

"Ah." Ye Shang felt aggrieved, and thought to himself, don't say it even if you know it well.

"Come back after a year?"

"Don't go back, I'm busy with work, and it's too much trouble to go back and forth." Ye Shang, who thought he was going to accept his mother's thoughts, didn't expect to be asked this question... It's better to blame yourself for playing games, Ye Shang is now In the state of resignation, and owed a lot of money to the credit card, I have been lying all the time, and I can only blame work for answering the reason why I did not go home during the Chinese New Year.

"Oh, your dad and I have started a business in the past few months..." Mom began to introduce the business he was doing to Ye Shang.

After chatting for more than ten minutes, Ye Shang's father came on the other end of the phone. After a few simple greetings, Ye Shang's father also talked about the business.

After a while, Ye Shang smiled bitterly after hanging up the phone, making a deal?Stop it.When Ye Shang was still in elementary school, his parents started some small businesses. Until the year before last, he successively started a small restaurant, sold second-hand mobile phones, and even did stocks for a while.

But the Ye family seems to be born out of business, and they don’t make money doing anything. When the small restaurants in their hometown are very popular, Ye’s small restaurants lose money. When everyone can sell second-hand mobile phones, Ye’s business It is losing money.What I hate even more is the stocks, which ones Ye Shang's father buys don't go up, and they go up as soon as he sells them.

"I don't think the dream of being a rich second generation can come true." Ye Shang changed the game character into a "stall" state when he was on the phone, and selling a few groceries at will is better than wasting points.

Although his family members have no talent or luck in business, Ye Shang did not discourage his parents' enthusiasm, after all, the two elders are also for themselves.

Ye Shang is 30 years old and single. He sold his house when he was in school, because the business has been losing money all the year round, and he can't afford the tuition fees if he doesn't sell the house.According to common people's understanding, a 30-year-old man is still unmarried, either because he is busy with his career, or because he doesn't want to get married, or... because no one wants him.

Unfortunately or normally, Ye Shang belongs to the last category. In order for Ye Shang to marry a wife, the family had no choice but to arrange a business to do it, so as to buy a house for Ye Shang and find a wife as soon as possible.With the current housing prices, even if you buy it in your hometown, it is not something that two workers who are about to retire with meager wages can afford in a short time.

"Annoying, let's read a novel."

Even if young people want to watch the Spring Festival Gala, they only watch language programs, and at most they watch song programs. However, in order to meet everyone's needs and tastes, the Spring Festival Gala naturally has a rich variety of programs.Coincidentally, Ye Shang didn't like the category right now, so he played the Spring Festival Gala live broadcast on one screen, and opened a novel he was chasing on the other screen.

Novels are in the category of rebirth. When Ye Shang reads novels, he mainly looks at the themes of rebirth, cities, and online games. When reading novels of rebirth, most of them also have the idea of ​​"I wish I could be reborn".

Ye Shang also fantasized about being reborn, but he is very self-aware, knowing that if he is really reborn, he will probably be confused with his current virtue.Firstly, he didn't deliberately memorize the winning numbers of the lottery. Secondly, he didn't know much about many popular and profitable industries. Thirdly, even if he knew that housing prices were going to rise, he didn't have the money to speculate in real estate.

As the saying goes, temperament is hard to change. Ye Shang believed that if he hadn't encountered some particularly big event, big enough to change his three views, he would definitely still live a very decadent life.Not seeking to make progress is Ye Shang's biggest enemy, and it may also be an enemy that he will never be able to defeat.If he can really get rid of this problem, then even if he is not reborn, he may still be able to stand out. At least it is not too late to work hard now. Working hard after rebirth will only save a lot of regrets in the past.

Ye Shang, who was on the phone with his family, was aroused by negative emotions again. He felt bored doing everything, so he simply quit the game, turned off the computer, and lay down on the bed to sleep. Anyway, he didn’t like things like customs very much. It just feels like a bondage.

"If I can be reborn, what should I do?" It was not until 22:[-], and Ye Shang, who often went to bed in the middle of the night, was of course not sleepy, so he could only imagine what he would do after being reborn.It has to be said that an otaku who loves to fantasize will really be haunted if he doesn't suffer from insomnia.But today's Ye Shang is different. He who usually has to toss and turn for more than half an hour to fall asleep unexpectedly fell asleep in a few minutes.

Before Ye Shang fell asleep, a ridiculous thought appeared in his mind: "If I am reborn, I guess I can play games, right?"
