you are the cutest in the world

Chapter 4 Cub Raising Day 4

After leaving school, Wei You walked the streets looking for job opportunities.

As the sun rose, the street gradually became noisy.

For Wei You, who has been wandering on the street, this process seemed so fast and eye-catching, as if he just went into a stationery store for a walk, and when he came out again, a lively old street woke up from its slumber.

Because he was looking for a job, Wei You walked very slowly. Whenever he saw a place that might be recruiting, he would go up and ask, even the fruit vendors.

However, firstly, he did not have an ID card, and secondly, what he was looking for was a day-end temporary job. It was obviously not so easy to find jobs that met the requirements.

After searching for a long time, he found a job as a promoter at the entrance of a small supermarket from the owner of the supermarket.

The promotional products are laundry and dish soap. I work from 65:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm. There is no meal allowance and no commission. The daily salary is [-] yuan.

Wei You calculated in his mind that if he counted it as a part-time job, it would be about [-] yuan an hour. This money is not much for him, but considering the current year and prices, such a temporary salary is not bad.

"Can I leave an hour earlier?" Wei You asked after discussing, "You can give me ten yuan less."

"You four o'clock..."

"I have to pick up my brother from school at four o'clock."

"Pick up the kids from school, it's okay to be an hour earlier," the proprietress was very talkative, "It's only a little past eight o'clock, and you start working until four o'clock in the afternoon, and the time is about the same. I'll still give you 65."

Wei You smiled: "Then thank you very much."

The proprietress waved her hand, and after confirming the work content with him, she took out an old-fashioned flip phone and made a call.

Wei You placed the goods on the table, and heard the voice of the proprietress on the phone. The content of the call seemed to tell her niece and other relatives to sleep more and not to rush over to help.

Wei You thought to himself that it was fortunate that he came early, and if he was later, he might not be able to get the job.

"Xiao Wei," the proprietress hung up the phone and looked at him with a smile, "You work here, if you get tired from standing, go get a stool, and I'll sit inside."

Wei You responded quickly: "Okay, go and do your work, leave this to me."

After watching the proprietress enter the door, Wei You continued to display promotional products. When he was free, he sketched the flip phone that the proprietress used to make calls in his mind.

It had a big red case, and a small pendant was hanging in his head. If he read it correctly, the logo on the phone case should be Nokia.

Even Nokia has it, isn't it really 15 years ago in his time and space?

Wei You thought about it, and took out his mobile phone from his pocket to take a look. As expected, the mobile phone was still on with the white screen progress bar of the game, which was exactly the same as yesterday, without any change.

He got angry when he saw the progress bar, and was about to put the phone back into his pocket when he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

His mobile phone does not display the specific percentage of power, but the color change of the remaining battery power in the upper right corner is still very obvious.

Wei You remembered very clearly that when he first came in yesterday, the color of the battery was still orange, but now it has turned bright red, indicating that it is about to run out of power.

So the mobile phone has not changed at all, its power is still passing at a very slow speed...

So what happens the moment it loses power completely?

What happens when the phone is turned off, when the only object that symbolizes his origin is also disabled?

Will he never go back...

Wei You felt anxiety and fear for the first time since crossing over.

Whether he was said to be dull or Buddhist, he always had an inexplicably optimistic idea somewhere, thinking that he would always go back.

However, at this time, it may be because he really started working in this strange place. Whether it is the bustling street scene in front of him, the flowing crowd, or the previous interaction with the supermarket proprietress, everything is perfect without any flaws.

He had to be clearly aware of one point.

This world is real, not a simple game.

"Wei Xu!"

"Wei Xu, wait for me!"

"Don't go so fast!"

Wei Xu was walking in the corridor outside the class, and Du Shao's voice at the back table kept coming from behind him.

He felt a little noisy, so he accelerated his pace even more, but Du Shao still caught up.

The little fat man walked to his side panting, and said in a hoarse voice that was not so bright: "Why don't you wait for me, I'll go back with you!"

Wei Xu wanted to say that someone was coming to pick him up today, but he hesitated for a moment when the words came to his lips, and then swallowed them back.

"Today, my mother gave me two extra dollars. I'll treat you to fried sausages, the sausages that cost fifty cents." Du Shao didn't notice his hesitation at all, and took out a coin from his pocket and gave it to him. He sees.

Wei Xu couldn't help asking, "Why the fifty cents?"

"Because I have a dollar to buy bubble gum, didn't you see me playing this morning?"

As Du Shao said, he took out a disposable toothpaste-like thing from his school uniform pocket, "Here, there is one left, do you want to play with it?"

Wei Xu looked away speechlessly.

"Forget it." Du Shao seemed reluctant to give it to him, but when Wei Xu refused, he immediately stuffed it back into his pocket.

Two elementary school students carried schoolbags half the size of their own bodies and walked along the tree-lined avenue next to the playground to the school gate. During this period, Du Shao kept talking about his experience of going out with his cousin during the summer vacation. He listened with his right ear out of the ground, all he could think about was whether his brother would come to pick him up?

"Why are you holding the math test paper?" Because Wei Xu kept silent, Du Shao took the initiative to bring the topic to him.

This test paper was issued after school, and the teacher asked the students to take it home and sign it for their parents.

But Du Shao didn't take the test paper back at all. He planned to imitate the adult's handwriting and sign it by himself when the team leader collected the test paper tomorrow morning.

"I only passed 70 in the exam, and I was the last in the class. My mother would scold me to death if I took it back."

"What score did you get in the test, show me?"

Wei Xu impatiently handed the test paper in front of him.

Du Shao took the test paper and unfolded it. When he saw the score on it, his eyes widened exaggeratedly: "One hundred, that's amazing!"

Du Shao was a little envious, thinking that it was no wonder Wei Xu had to hold the test paper in his hand. If he got a hundred in the exam, he would definitely have to stick the test paper on his forehead, so that everyone passing by would know that he is a good student.

"Will your father give you a reward for the test with [-] points?" He returned the test paper to Wei Xu and asked curiously at the same time.

Wei Xu didn't want to answer such a boring question, but at this moment, they happened to be on the downhill road approaching the school gate.

Now is the busiest time after school. The school gate is full of noisy students waiting in line for the school bus and parents who come to pick up their children from school.

Despite the crowded crowd, Wei Xu still caught sight of Wei You at a glance.

He squatted on the steps beside the flower bed next to the gatekeeper. He chose that position probably because there was a tree there, which could just block the sun.

He seemed to be a little tired, with his arms stretched out on his knees, his head lowered, and his slightly long hair hanging naturally from his forehead.

"My father won't, but my brother will reward me." After confirming that Wei You had really come to pick him up, Wei Xu finally had the mood to answer Du Shao's question.

"You still have a brother?"

"Well, he's here to pick me up." Wei Xu said these words almost quickly, and then ran towards the doorman with big strides.

Du Shao hesitated for a moment, then grabbed the strap of his schoolbag and chased after him: "Wei Xu, wait for me!"

Wei You raised his head when he heard the sound, and saw that his melon cub was coming, so he slowly stood up with the bag at hand.

It may be because he doesn't exercise much at home all the year round. After working as a supermarket salesman for a day today, he even feels exhausted that he is about to collapse.

Seeing that Wei You was ahead, Wei Xu hesitantly squeezed the perfect score paper in his hand.

He wanted to show this paper to Wei You, but now he felt that it was a bit deliberate. After thinking about it, he stuffed the paper into the side pocket of his schoolbag, then raised his head and called Wei You "Brother" crisply .

"It's quite punctual after school." Wei You didn't notice his small movements, and took the schoolbag from his shoulder as soon as he saw him coming.

Wei Xu still wanted to resist, but Wei You said bluntly: "Such a heavy schoolbag, don't make you short."

When Wei Xu heard this, he stopped struggling immediately.

Wei You was carrying his schoolbag, and his eyes fell on Du Shao beside him: "Is this your classmate?"

"Hi brother, I'm Wei Xu's back desk, and my name is Du Shao." The little fat man introduced himself very familiarly, and immediately asked, "Brother, are you Wei Xu's biological brother?"

"No, I'm the elder brother of his relative's family." Because he was talking to the child, Wei You squatted down again.

Du Shao nodded and said "Oh", then grinned and said, "You are so handsome, and Wei Xu is also good-looking. Your family's genes are really good."

"You still know about genes?"

"Yes, my cousin often said that our family's genes are obesity."

Wei You couldn't help laughing out loud: "So that's how it is!"

"Brother, what is this?" Wei Xu suddenly interrupted their conversation.

Wei You glanced at the plastic bag he was pointing at, which contained a change of clothes he bought at a discount in the supermarket, and two cups of canned fruit he bought on the way here.

Speaking of this canned fruit, I bought it by accident.

He originally walked in after seeing the milk tea posted on the glass door of the cold drink shop, but he found that the milk tea sold in the shop at this time was the powder type with added pigments. Not only did it taste mediocre, it was also very expensive Not worth it.

A cup of taro milk tea costs six yuan, while a full cup of iced canned yellow peaches only costs one yuan and five. Even a fool knows what to buy.

He was about to take out the drink and give each of the two children a cup, when the little fat man suddenly let out a "wow" in surprise, and said, "Wei Xu, your voice when talking to your brother is so soft, you are so soft! Did you talk to your family like that?"
