Chapter 84 : he has superpowers
On a sunny afternoon, Xu Qing took out two red hundred dollar bills from his wallet and gently placed them on the bar counter. He smiled and said,"Two packs of soft Chinese and two cans of cold beer, please." Golden retriever, a young man dressed in blue jeans, quickly turned around and took out a cigarette and beer. He rubbed the bills gently between his fingers and put them in the drawer.
"Do you want to try your luck?" Golden Hair suggested.
Xu Qing nodded and smiled." Then let's try it. Let's start with two hours."
The golden retriever quickly looked for change and asked,"Do you have an ID card?" This was a proper place, and minors were not allowed to enter. Of course, if you don't have an ID card, as long as you have money, there are ways to get in.
Xu Qing took out his ID card from his pocket and handed it to Golden Retriever. Golden Hair placed the ID card on the counter and quickly returned it to him." The account number is the ID number. The password is one, two, three."
Xu Qing put away his ID card and grabbed his beer and cigarette. His eyes revealed a trace of indifference. He asked,"Where is the bald man?"
The golden retriever laughed: "If you want to ask Brother Baldy for help, these two things are a bit shabby." Two or three hundred dollars more would be better." In the Internet cafe, almost no one does not know the campus difficult company bald brother. He was a professional in all the universities in Jiang City, and this Sunshine Internet Cafe was one of his strongholds. Perhaps because he used to study here, he basically came here every day to hang out, and occasionally received some business.
Xu Qing smiled and said,"We made an appointment to meet today."
The golden retriever pouted." He's at Camera 18. He's the one with the longest hair."
Xu Qing's expression changed slightly. Baldy? How did you become the one with the longest hair? Then, he thought of this guy's online name and couldn't help but laugh. It turned out that this guy liked to make fun of others. No wonder he was called " seeing through worldly affairs without shaving his head."
Xu Qing walked to the front of the 18th camera and saw a shirtless long-haired young man. One foot was on the seat, half-squatting and half-sitting to play games. There was a green Miller Buddha tattooed on his back, and his naked head was especially eye-catching. He thought to himself that Brother Baldy's name might have something to do with this tattoo.
Xu Qing glanced at the empty number 17 beside him and walked over to sit down. He placed the beer and cigarettes in his hand on the computer table. He took a deep puff of his cigarette and began to immerse himself in the world of the game. I clicked on the penguin avatar and entered the online state. In this virtual world, I am an otherness who sees through worldly affairs but still chooses to shave my head. He smiled and shook the window. Brother Baldy immediately responded.
"Who's shaking? Dead, paralyzed…" His words were full of dissatisfaction.
I typed a quick line: "Who the hell are you scolding? Do you smoke?"
Baldy's reaction speed surprised me. He leaned over to the computer. I tried to close the conversation window, but it was too late.
"Ha ha! So it's you, kid." Brother Baldy laughed loudly and shook his bald head.
I grinned and handed him a cigarette." Brother Baldy, isn't your image misleading the audience?"
He took the cigarette and put it on the bridge of his nose to smell it." Did you buy this cigarette from Golden Retriever?"
I nodded, and he took out his lighter and lit it for me. The two of us smoked and chatted.
"Brother, your name is Xu Qing, right? Yesterday, when Monkey said that name, I thought it was you."
I opened a beer and took a sip."What's your name? Brother Baldy, this name is awkward."
He smiled." You're not allowed to laugh when you say it."
I nodded solemnly, and he said slowly,"He Shang."
I spit beer right on the monitor, monk? That's a very creative name.
He Shang rolled his eyes." I said you're not allowed to laugh. What's wrong with you? Noble Shang!"
I wiped the wine from the corner of my mouth and asked,"Who named it? What's with the homonym?"
He shrugged helplessly." My grandmother got it. She believes in Buddhism."
I drank up my beer and decided,"I'll call you bald from now on, smooth."
He Shang took another can of beer." Whatever. Let's go." In that hot summer, Xu Qing and He Shang walked out of the Internet cafe together. He Shang, the local boss of Jiang City High School, brought his friend Xu Qing to a special hotpot restaurant. The air-conditioning made people feel comfortable, but Xu Qing's goosebumps rose and fell. He Shang looked at him playfully and asked,"Brother, is it very enjoyable to open the air conditioner and eat the pot?" Do you dare to try dog meat?"
Summer eating hot pot has been heated, coupled with steaming dog meat, people with poor physique can not stand. But Xu Qing smiled indifferently and said," I have no taboos. As long as it's delicious, it's fine." He Shang raised his thumb and called the waiter to start ordering. Xu Qing even specially ordered a serving of iced watermelon, wanting to experience Brother Baldy's special ability.
The hot mandarin duck dish was served with dog meat, beef, chicken, squid, fat sheep... all meat except tofu strips. He Shang was really a monk! They drank cold beer and ate hot saucepans, feeling extremely refreshed. After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the waiter served a large plate of iced watermelon.
Xu Qing lit a cigarette and took out money from his wallet to buy the bill. Then, he said that they would leave after eating, so that the waiter did not need to come in and disturb them. After enjoying the delicious meal, they left the restaurant. When the waiter left the room, Xu Qing quickly followed and carefully closed the door. He pointed at the watermelon on the table and said to He Shang with a smile," Brother Baldy, you have to show us something today. Let us see what China's Harry Potter is."
He Shang picked up a piece of fat mutton and chewed while saying vaguely," I knew you had bad intentions. You wanted me to go out and be a lab rat!"
Xu Qing stuck out her tongue and looked mischievous." Show us what you can do. Let us see. I promise I won't say a word."
He Shang swallowed the mutton in his mouth and picked out a black watermelon seed with his index finger tip. Then, he closed his fingers and smiled." Look."
