Stand-in king

Chapter 15 The Champion's Dream

Still the old place.

This kebab restaurant tastes good, but its opening hours are late, and its storefront is larger than the average barbecue restaurant. Young people in the neighborhood like to come here for supper, and the business is good.

I don't know if it's because they can't grab the business. There is only one barbecue restaurant within a distance of one intersection, and there is no other place to go.

Seeing Sun Tianrui and Mo Xu coming together, the proprietress came to chatter about the last time Mo Xu lost his phone after collecting the money, until Mo Xu said that he wished that the phone would stick to his palm and never forget it.

Fortunately, another new customer came into the store, and Mo Xu was rescued from the mouth of "Tang Monk".

"This proprietress is really enthusiastic." Mo Xu still had a bit of bewilderment on his face.

"The old neighbors in S City are like this." Sun Tianrui smiled and rolled his eyes, "Aren't you used to it? Are you from another place?"

"Well, I'm... from City C." Mo Xu thought for a while and said, "I've been here in City S for almost five years."

"Ouch, fellow!" A boy yelled, "My name is Lin Yi, and I came here last year. Brother Xu... Can I call you Brother Xu? My home is on the other side of the clock tower. Where are you from in City C?"

"The one on the tree-lined road." Mo Xu smiled, "I'm the biggest here, right?"

Sun Tianrui scanned around, thought for a while, and was amused: "You are really the biggest."

"Isn't it? You all recognize him as an uncle." Mo Xu shook his head.

Later, when he was shaving that day, he looked in the mirror and startled himself. After half a month, his beard was unshaven, and he always felt that his face had turned dark. No wonder he was recognized as an uncle.

I almost admitted my mistake, so I can't blame others for being blind.

Originally, it was very simple for men to establish friendship. When the wine came, they opened a few bottles in a flash, and each of them filled a glass.

But Mo Xu didn't drink, and Sun Tianrui didn't drink after being mentioned by him last time, and he also called on everyone in the team not to drink.

Fortunately, this group of people is not addicted to alcohol, and when no one mentions things that are linked to competition results, they don't pay attention, and when they are mentioned, everyone stops drinking.

This group of people know how to eat, first ordered dozens of skewers of beef and mutton, and also ordered a lot of pork belly thin slices.

Although the owner and his wife are locals, the skewers have a foreign flavor. The seasoning is evenly sprinkled and the fire is just right.

Mo Xuzhen was still a little hungry. Today, he ran to the erhu and wanted to have a meal, but he gave him a lesson and came back without eating.

Today, from waking up to now, I probably drank some water.

Beef and mutton have a strong cumin flavor. He first took a few skewers of pork belly, which was full of meaty aroma.

"It's a pity that I didn't order pork with the erhu that day. I made a mistake." Mo Xu felt a little regretful.

"The pork belly of this restaurant is a specialty, and the oysters are also pretty good."

While eating, Sun Tianrui began to introduce him one by one. The saint whee's name is Xu Jinghui, the blood knight PPG is called Yang Pengyi, and the 16-year-old genius Melon is called Ge Chengyang, including some substitute players and people from the online game department.

The fellow Lin Yi who just greeted Mo Xu was a sharpshooter substitute, specially taking his place when Melon was unable to play.

After introducing themselves, a group of people looked at Mo Xu.

"Brother Xu, what do you play?" Several people asked him.

I don't know if it was because he was a little happy after eating the meat. Normally, Mo Xu would not answer, but now he thought about it and said: "I can play, mainly bow."

"Bow? What do you mean, proficient in all archers?"

"En." Mo Xu nodded seriously.

No wonder others were surprised, after three rotations, there are at least four professions in a profession department, and there are as many as six professions.

In fact, it is normal for their professional players to say "all professionals can play", but "can play" and "proficient" are two different things.

"Damn it, Brother Xu isn't real. We're all so sincere, but he actually brags? Who here dares to say that he is proficient in a certain profession!" Lin Yi shouted, "There should be a fine for drinking here! But since everyone don't drink..."

He glanced around the table.

"Huh? Brother Xu, has he never eaten a bite of lamb kidney?"

"Uh..." Mo Xu's eyes trembled, "Didn't you want me to eat that?"

"Hahaha, Brother Xu is scared. Let him eat lamb's kidneys!" PPG cheered up, and shouted with a red face, "Let him brag! He is also proficient in the professional department! I only dare to brag about the proficiency in dual professions! Eat, eat, eat! "

Those who didn't know the state thought that PPG was drunk, but I really don't know why they can blush even after drinking Sprite.

A bunch of lamb kidneys was quickly handed to Mo Xu.

Conscience, he really has never eaten this thing.

Mo Xu's face was full of discoloration, thinking that he should pretend to be modest just now, and others don't know how many professions he can master, so why bother to tell the truth.

In fact, he is a bit picky about food, and it is the first time he comes into contact with lamb kidneys...

But looking at the enthusiastic smiling faces of a group of people, I couldn't say the words of rejection.

The last time a group of people got together here, they still drank a lot of wine. This time, they didn't drink a drop of wine. The yellow beer in the glass was replaced by all Sprite. It's kind of taking care of him.

"Okay, my fault, I just ate this." Mo Xu sighed.

It is a bit difficult to put the lamb kidneys to the mouth.

"Hey—brother Xu, eat, eat, refresh yourself!" The people next to him booed.

Mo Xu's heart froze, his eyes closed, and he stuffed the whole sheep's kidney into his mouth.

There is a smell of sheep, balanced with heavy spices, but it still cannot be completely covered, and it is weird to chew in the mouth.

Mo Xu quickly chewed and swallowed the lamb kidney almost whole, and drank all the Sprite in the cup in one go.

The expression must be ugly, he thought.

"Hahaha..." His tangled expression pleased the audience very well, and the crowd let him go for the time being, and turned to trouble others.

The night of laughing and making noise passed quickly, and at 11 o'clock in the evening, a group of people came out of the store.

Today Sun Tianrui didn't keep anyone, but said goodbye to everyone one by one, and sent several people to the car respectively.

Before leaving, Xu Jinghui gave Sun Tianrui a meaningful look.

Sun Tianrui smiled with his eyes bent, nodded at him, and said nothing.

"Let's go." Xu Jinghui waved his hand.

"Goodbye..." Sun Tianrui also waved goodbye, "See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow!"

Tomorrow is the day when the new expansion will be released, and Mo Xu knows it well.

In fact, not only these people, but also tomorrow he will get up early to change jobs.

Soon, everyone was gone, and there were only the two of them left.

The lively atmosphere just now disappeared in an instant, leaving only silence and embarrassment for a while.

"Let's go..." Sun Tianrui looked at him, "Go back."

"En." Mo Xu took a step forward.

Walking all the way into the community, bypassing the flower beds, and walking downstairs to the unit building, Mo Xu was about to take out the key to enter the door when Sun Tianrui called to stop him.

"Eh, that..."

Turning around, I saw Sun Tianrui standing at the bottom of two steps, looking up at him.

Some dim white street lights illuminated his face, and his expression was hesitant.

"What's wrong?" Mo Xu asked.

"Aren't you..." Sun Tianrui thought for a while, and said a little embarrassedly, "You think I'm annoying?"

"Ah?" Mo Xu turned around, quite puzzled, "Why do you think so?"

After thinking about it, he felt that he had a pretty good temper recently, and being harassed like this by Meng Xun was just because he didn't bother charging his phone, and it wasn't to the point of blackmailing him.

"Because I don't reply to your messages... I also know that it's annoying for me to send you invitations every day, but the main thing is..."

"Ah, did you send me a message?" Mo Xu interrupted him, thinking for a while, "My phone is out of battery. Hmm...Meng Xun keeps calling me recently, so I'm not happy to charge it."

Sun Tianrui, who was still about to explain, stood there with his mouth open, as if he didn't know what expression to use.

Dare to love someone who didn't see the message I sent at all?

"You saw that day too. He called one after another. If he didn't know where I live now, he might have found me." Mo Xu lowered his eyes and didn't know where he was looking.

"Uh..." Sun Tianrui still didn't know what to say. He wanted to ask what was going on with him and Meng Xun, and thought it was not good to inquire about other people's privacy, but he vaguely felt that this matter might be because Mo Xu didn't want to join the Genies key.

The whole person was torn between wanting to ask and not asking.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "A new expansion pack will be released tomorrow... Don't say anything else, do you still play this game?"

"Just for fun..." Mo Xu didn't say anything dead, opened the door and walked in.

What does playing "bar" mean? !

Sun Tianrui stood there with a confused look on his face. Does the "bar" mean to play or not to play? !

There was no time for him to think, the elevator arrived, and Mo Xu was waiting for him with his hand stuck on the elevator door, so he had no choice but to run over and enter the elevator.

The elevator for two is always silent.

When they reached the fifth floor, Mo Xu suddenly said: "The people in your team are quite interesting."

This seems to be a signal of interest, Sun Tianrui is a little happy: "Yes, I also think that the atmosphere in our team is very good, and this is one of the reasons why I joined thegenies.

And although our team does not have a coach, the ability to play until now is due to the fact that the players do not hide their secrets and are willing to discuss tactics with each other.

There is the dream of winning the championship, and there is also the pressure of performance, but it will not cause a run on the team because of this..."

The dream of being a champion...

Mo Xu sighed: "Yes, those children are much more lively than Tianwu."

"Then do you want to think about it..." Sun Tianrui said quickly, he felt like an insurance salesman recently, and every time he saw Mo Xu, he just said a few words.

"Ding!"

The elevator stopped at the 11th floor, and Mo Xu walked out with his feet lifted.

"talk later."

Only Sun Tianrui was left in a daze.

This time he didn't directly refuse, does it mean... there is something going on?

Maybe he wants to think it over carefully?

However, Mo Xu didn't think about anything. When he got home, he took off his clothes and went directly to the bathroom to take a shower.

This day is getting hotter and hotter, and the sweat he sweats today is more than what he sweated in the previous half month.

I have to talk to Sun Wenqiong, the promised air conditioner should be in place soon.

Because of the opening of the expansion pack the next day, the God's Lair will be maintained all night tonight, so Mo Xu went to bed early.

But early the next morning, he was awakened by the sound of footsteps.

"Ouch—why is there someone here?" It was a middle-aged woman's voice, and it sounded at the door of the room, "Is this house rented out? The owner didn't tell me..."

Mo Xu opened his eyes in a daze, his brain was jolted, and he became sober.

He wanted to touch his phone to check the time, but he subconsciously reached out and realized that the phone was not charged.

"Auntie..." he asked very calmly, "Who are you and why do you have the key?"

"I'm sorry." The aunt was wearing a red uniform, her hair was tied into a bun at the back of her head, she was neatly arranged, she didn't look like a bad guy, she was busy bowing and apologizing to Mo Xu, "I'm the cleaning aunt who was hired by the owner next door. , I used to come here every weekend to do sanitation. Last weekend, I had something to do in my hometown, so I told the owner to come today. She didn't tell me that the place was rented out..."

Oh, yes, Sun Wenqiong mentioned that someone will do the cleaning, and she will pay for it.

Mo Xu moved in last Sunday afternoon, and today is Tuesday.

As of today, there has only been a full weekend, which is the first time I have met this cleaning lady.

"This..." The aunt took the initiative to say, "This room was empty before, and my boss gave me the key. Since someone lives there, I will return the key later. Can I do the cleaning now?"

Mo Xu's mind was still a little unclear, and it took him a while to think about this question.

"Auntie...do you also clean the toilet next door?" He asked.

"I did." The aunt nodded, looking cautious, and didn't step into the room.

"Do you also take the key next door?"

"I took it." The aunt said, "This owner is my regular customer. It turns out that I came to do the cleaning when their parents were still living here. This family is not at home, so I come here when I am free on weekends.

Anyway, they told me that if they were sleeping when they came, the bedroom would not need to be cleaned.This week was an accident, I was supposed to come over on Sunday..."

The aunt explained a lot, as if she was a little sorry for the fact that there were people in the room but she broke in.

"Oh..." Mo Xu said, "Since you also have the key next door, let me take the key from this room. I can't get up before noon, so I can't open the door for you. If you come to clean up, just come in." alright."

Anyway, he doesn't have anything valuable here, so it doesn't matter.

"Oh." The aunt nodded, "Then can I start cleaning now?"

"Well, you can clean it up. I'm sorry to trouble you." After Mo Xu finished speaking, he suddenly asked, "By the way, what time is it?"

"11:30." Auntie said.

"Oh, thank you." The God's Nest announced that the server would open at twelve noon, so it was time for Mo Xu to wake up.

"Okay okay."

……

After a simple wash, it was almost twelve o'clock, and Mo Xu sat in front of the computer and turned it on.

God's Lair has an official advantage. The announced server opening time is generally only in advance, and there is no delay. Therefore, after Mo Xu turned on the computer and waited for a while, he logged in to the game and prepared to change his Reveng3 to bard. .

The cleaning aunt started cleaning from the outside kitchen until she arrived at his room.

Auntie straightened up and was about to rest for a while, when she saw Mo Xu who was having fun.

"Oh, young man, do you also play games?" The aunt said, "The young man in the boss's house also plays games, and he holds a computer every day."

Knowing that she was talking about Sun Tianrui, Mo Xu gave a "hmm" and said casually, "I played the same game as him."

"You play games like this, don't you need to work?"

"Games are jobs..." Mo Xu said, "We play games, with wages and bonuses."

How could a cleaning aunt understand this, she just felt that getting paid for playing games seemed like a fantasy.

Coincidentally, the landlord and the tenant actually play the same game.

Auntie watched Mo Xu manipulate the villain on the screen, and took a break by the way.

When I ran into the young man from my boss a few months ago, I seemed to have mentioned to her that I don’t have a partner for playing games?

Isn't that what it is.

Auntie thought, I have to tell my boss about this.
