Abyss Express

The second day of the preliminaries ended in this way, and the journey of Valin Heavy Industry was also over-but the Luna Cup of the big girl, Sister Guozi, was not over yet. She paid a sum of insurance for Valin, Let's say she broke the bill.

Coming out of the canteen at Xijiekou, the children who bought candied haws on the side of the road knew that this sister looked very sad.

Pedestrian streets full of people, it was August 1st, the hot summer day, and the Luna Cup, which had the fastest money coming in this year, had just started, and the first business was sold out.

Since the match between Valin and Fairy Tale Kingdom was very early, Shark Pepper got off work after 11 o'clock in the morning, so he seized the opportunity and quickly called the gunsmith to catch people——

——If the Fairy Tale Kingdom wants to go further, it must find a suitable substitute, and the pioneer Guozi is a suitable candidate.

The other team members packed up their luggage and went to the hotel to rest. Squatting in a small room and watching the game video is the best training. Know the opponent's combat habits in advance. happy event.

At this time, Jiang Xueming came back wearing a Garfield headgear and a puppet costume, and was waiting for the coach to meet at the teahouse next to the military product store.

Wearing children's clothes and duck shoes, Shasha ran into the teahouse "chirping, chirping" all the way, attracting the attention of many people, but there are a lot of hybrid beasts in this place, and Shasha is not a rare special character. The guests just smiled, took a few more glances and went back to watch the game.

When it saw the gunsmith's hood, it didn't recover for a while.

"Are you cosplaying?"

Jiang Xueming said in a low voice: "I have contacted people from the organizing committee and asked them to help conceal my identity."

Shasha asked, "Did it work?"

Jiang Xueming: "I changed into a puppet costume, but I dare not take off the headgear—I'm considering whether to call my little finger over and change to a female character account."

Shasha hurriedly said: "That's not allowed! It's not allowed!"

If the eldest sister ran out for vacation and the gunsmith quit, what would happen to the team members' equipment in a game with live ammunition rules? In the second half of the stick fighting and bullet drills, not only the players but also the logistics must be tested.

"What orders does the leader have now?" Jiang Xueming gave up the idea of ​​changing the number: "Speak with Guozi, the leader, shall we?"

Shasha immediately said: "Yes! At my age, if I want to talk about money with people, I definitely can't agree. After thinking about it for a long time, you are more suitable. Do you know Sister Guozi?"

If you say you know each other, it definitely doesn't count.

But during the final stage of the Luna Cup, Xue Ming served as a referee for six seasons and as a light weapons consultant for four seasons-this is also Anonymous's extra income.

Xue Ming had a little impression of this big girl, but not much, just like the drinkers at the front desk of the club, who came and walked and came again, only a few regular customers could chat a few words, and seemed more familiar.

In other words, Sister Guozi usually does not make it to the second half of the final day. In the world's top psychic duel competitions, she is a second-rate player.

"I have a little impression." Jiang Xueming replied truthfully: "Her real name seems to be... Let me think about it."

In the final stage of the Luna Cup, each team has at least eight players, and more than 300 athletes have their own real names and player IDs. It is really difficult for the referee to remember everyone's names.

It so happened that the gunsmith remembered such a little girl——

"——The Chinese name is Zhao Tingting, and the Japanese name seems to be Fujiwara Yumi. The team I belong to is Laiyang Heavy Industry, Laiyang Foreign Trade Weapons Processing Factory."

Shasha asked, "Is that the one who sells steel pipes for rockets?"

The gunsmith nodded and replied, "Yes, that's right."

Shasha clapped his hands and said excitedly: "If you know each other, it will be easy!"

"Leave this to me." The gunsmith opened the mouth of Garfield's hood, and poured a pot of tea into it like instant noodles.

After watching that battle, Shasha opened his mouth in surprise, and his expression suddenly became (⊙A⊙)—suddenly doubting the basic Homo sapiens quality of a gunsmith. Are fishermen drinking tea so fiercely?

"gone."

After the gunsmith left this sentence, the chubby Garfield squeezed away the tea guests, turned over and jumped off the second floor, and went to find a substitute for the students.

The two booths next to the military product store are the unique human resources market of the Luna Cup competition site.

Teams will come here every day to pick new teammates——

——During the competition, there will definitely be a temporary change of team members. The audition rules are very loose, and there are no restrictions on the identity of the personnel. The front desk girl at the registration point, Qi Ji, only asks for a replacement ID card.

Based on this, the flow of personnel in the team will also become very frequent.

During the primary election stage, the morale of many failed teams was low. It is normal for players to leave, and many disbanded on the spot. These improvised mercenaries bear the shame of a defeat. Go to the second-hand market to find treasures, and sign these losers as substitutes.

Many powerful psykers come to areas where the fighting intensity is not so high, because this set of personnel change rules is convenient enough, allowing them to run away immediately after getting pocket money, and turn into Rufeng all the way back to their home The club continues to play.

According to the industry ecology, those who can receive big orders are team battles, like the snow mastiff group that strolled near the Albert scientific research station before, the area they are in is not included in the Luna Cup due to the sparse population. Officers, soldiers and young people also have no chance to participate in the Luna Cup.

In order to feed his brothers, Hydera, the leader of the Snow Mastiff, will mobilize teams with outstanding combat effectiveness in the team and go to other competition areas to take orders.

However, this matter is also disgraceful on the bright side, just like whoever has money, who can buy a well-trained mercenary team, can become a regional representative.

Guangling Zhixi and militia organizations have taken up most of the power leveling market. These professional teams can usually lead the clubs of regional enterprises to the re-selection stage of the city competition, and can save energy for the young masters of the club during the long audition schedule ——But often these cheating teams usually don't make it to the end. A lot of money was spent back and forth, most of which were extra meals for the soldiers who were struggling to maintain law and order at the transfer station, and it was considered charity in disguise.

Although the rules for personnel changes are loose, in the Luna Cup competition system, the penalties for match-fixing and quota trading are very severe. It is no longer a matter of suspension, but it is directly included in the category of illegal crimes.

The regional representatives of the whole team can be changed, the coaches can be changed, and the logistics can be changed, but the logo and the main body of the club must not be changed. , money to money.

This highly commercialized event is closely related to almost all walks of life in every region. It can come to the stage to perform on the final day, and the trademarks of the players will be displayed in front of 40 million spectators.

Even if it is a children's toy factory, it suddenly has a promising future. The team members carried its banner and came to the final stage. This is also a toy watched by 400 million people, and it will soon become an Internet celebrity.

As for trivial things like mercenary leveling——

——When it comes to the stage on the final day, no matter how many shortcuts you took before, you will return to the players through various audience, public opinion and media pressure.

The Luna Cup players need to know clearly - hope that the contestants try to preserve their physical strength, do not do useless training, and break through themselves to complete evolution during the competition.

This comment also explains on the side, asking for power leveling is meaningless, the person who finally stands on the stage has to go through wind and rain, have to cross mountains and mountains, have to meet challenges again and again, and go through hardships to know the value of the journey.

On the other hand, if a lone wolf like Sister Guozi comes out to make money, the probability of overturning is very high. When receiving the invitation from Valin, the story the boss told her was very nice——

——It was a cry of tears, talking about the miserable background of the company, and the stingy and shabby labor remuneration. In the end, with the righteousness and the wishes of thousands of residents in the steel factory, the top soldiers were coaxed into the thief ship step by step.

Until the end of the game, Sister Guozi looked at her ID card again and again, and faced the insurance compensation on the contract, she said she was cheated!

"Yumi, Yumi! Yumi! You are so confused!"

She hugged her knees and squatted next to the fast food restaurant in the human resources market, her voice was almost hoarse from crying.

"You are so stupid! Really! The boss is obviously here to cheat the insurance!"

"Why did you only remember this after paying the money!"

"There is no normal person in the team! I'll go to the Hedland Hotel to find some people! Can they all make it to the semi-finals?"

"Replace the attacker and the sentry with two military dogs with six points of blood! They are better than them!"

"Yumi! Yumi! You are so confused!"

There was a black defeat badge on her player card, and it was difficult for the coaches of several teams to strike up a conversation with her because the girl was crying too sadly.

You can hear the whispers of these underhands, and there are also scouts and headhunters sent by the head coach of Amethyst. It is the [Symphony Orchestra] mentioned last time, which is dedicated to searching for suitable players and craftsmen for the club.

"Valin really doesn't care about human affairs."

"From the very first game, I could see that they just wanted to trick this girl into paying insurance money."

"There are Chinese and Japanese in the team, and the coach doesn't care about it. If she is asked to take it, how can she take it? I don't have the ability to know."

"I don't know how much she lost."

This is part of the barbaric ecology of the local competition area. Although the Mad Butterfly Sect is gone, the bad things that wander in the gray area and try their best to make money will not disappear.

They did not break the law or commit a crime, and the law cannot sanction them, but what they did basically touched the lower limit of morality.

When Fujiwara Yumi came to District 41, she offered help to Valin Heavy Industries out of sympathy.

But the teammate that this club arranged for her is very problematic. This personnel composition is because she didn't plan to play well from the beginning.

The big girl didn't even think about it when she signed the contract, and if she wanted to put it on the Internet in the mundane world surrounded by tigers and wolves, she was also an honest child who was cheated by routine loans, part-time jobs, and training fees for Internet celebrity training courses, so that her mother didn't even know her. .

During the duel with the Fairy Tale Kingdom, the girl didn't talk about money the whole time, she just cared about her player points very much.

Because she wasn't here for the money—

——She thought, in the small town outside Hualing Industrial Park, there are so many people, looking forward to the club's success and going further with the honor of the regional enterprise, at least they have to show their style.

But she never expected that what the business representative wanted was not the bonus of the Luna Cup, but the ability to cheat one after another, and he came here specifically for innocent people like her.

Yumei's bowels were remorseful. At the beginning, her crying was full of anger, but when she was tired from crying, she lay down on the table to sleep for a while, got up and ate two big bowls of boxed lunch, because the prices in District 41 were very low and the food was good. She ate very happily, but felt that twenty-four pyroxene coins would never be able to buy two servings of rice with shrimp and corn in the first district. She laughed for a few minutes, laughed and started to cry again.

This time she was crying and whimpering, still thinking about what to do with me.

Until a fat and short Garfield sat in front of her——

"—Girl, is there a team missing?"

Sister Guozi immediately became vigilant; "Brother, haven't you seen the failure on my certificate?"

"See, is there a team missing?" Jiang Xueming asked persistently.

Sister Guozi asked cautiously: "What team? Do you sell children's toys? Your doll costume is pretty good, but the model is a bit shabby. Is the club reliable? Does your parents care about you? Eat less of the film, it sounds like a mature voice, why is the height so familiar?"

The gunsmith couldn't laugh or cry. When he was a referee, he only knew that the contestant, Sister Guozi, was shy and shy when facing interviews.

"You think I'm tall and familiar?"

"That's right, take off your headgear, it's probably at the same altitude as my unlucky referee." The Chinese-Japanese mixed-race girl spoke with a Dongbai dialect: "He is old and bad! Before the game starts, I want to sneak away A few milliseconds, before the whistle blew the gun, he actually wanted me to take a card! Just a few milliseconds! That heart is as small as his body, you know—— Then I thought, didn’t I Short people are all monkeys."

Speaking of this-

——Miss Yumei said all the bad things in front of the gunsmith.

"You didn't come to cheat me of money, did you?"

"Cough, cough, cough, cough." Jiang Xueming didn't know what to say, so he could only tease him in Japanese: "I'm so sorry that I'm too short to catch your attention."

Hearing the language of her hometown, Yumei immediately became nervous, because the business representative of Valin used this trick of national sentiment to deceive her into signing the contract, saying that her family would not lie to her family, Chinese plus Japanese—that is, the relatives of Fujiwara Yumi .

"Speak Chinese! I can understand! Brother, what do you want to do? Don't beat around the bush, okay?"

Xue Ming said straight to the point: "I am a craftsman of the Fairy Tale Kingdom. The coach sent me to talk to you, whether you want to come to our team as a substitute."

Yumei didn't turn her head around all of a sudden, she sifted out the words "craftsman" and "replacement" from a large list of information, and she understood it like a gulp.

"How can this work? I am a breakthrough player, not a substitute! And wait a minute"

After finishing the main course, the 82-meter-long girl finally understood the rest of the meaning of this sentence, chewed all the leftovers, and digested them in her brain.

"referee."

Fujiwara Yumi smiled, and suddenly stood up, crossed her hands and held each other, leaning against her cheeks with a playful smile, tilting her head, her red and black ponytail swaying behind her head.

"Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey. Would you not take a card to insult you face to face?"

The gunsmith's tone was kind: "Sit back and keep your voice down. You don't eat cards."

"I'll just say it! Hey hey! I'll just say it! Boys who are less than 1.8 meters in Xiaohongshu have lost their human rights." Yumei switched to Japanese and whispered: "I have been distorted by capitalism. It’s poisonous! It’s understandable to be a bit stereotyped. After all, I’m a Sino-Japanese joint venture, so I’m somewhat involved.”

Jiang Xueming: "Stop for a while"

Fujiwara Yumi responded immediately: "Hey!"

Her Chinese name is Tingting, which is very down-to-earth.

Jiang Xueming clutched Garfield's fat face in the hood, a little bit exhausted.

"Then what. Can you be Ah Hao's substitute?"

"Is there still room for discussion? Whatever you say is what you say." Fujiwara Yumi nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

"Come back with me to sign the contract." Jiang Xueming got up to leave.

"Slow down! Slow down!" Fujiwara Yumi shouted, "I'll make a bag!"

Jiang Xueming was startled——

—he was stunned.

Can the big girl eat like this?

Yumei is not particular at all, and she has never been afraid of anyone when it comes to eating. She showed her green tourmaline, which is a color full of vitality, and also the basic appeal of lust and lust.

"Cheap, big and delicious! It's good to eat it!"

On the way back, Yumei followed Xueming's buttocks, staring at Garfield's wagging tail. The level of noise is comparable to that of meteors.

"How did you move your big tail? Referee?"

Gunsmith: "The doll suit is air-conditioned, so the wind blows it up."

Yumei: "Is Shasha also a doll costume?"

Gunsmith: "That's a hybrid beast, it's alive, not a toy."

Yumei: "I work here with you, can I get some extra points?"

Gunsmith: "It depends on performance, but you should get extra points. I think you can."

Yumei: "Then you are my real father!"

Gunsmith: "Cough"

Yumei: "Let me ask you something, does eldest sister snore when she sleeps?"

Gunsmith: "Don't snore."

Yumei: "Then I snore, is there a way to stop snoring? I want to become like Big Sister."

Gunsmith: "Say a few words less, eat less food, reduce the fat on your neck, lower your body fat percentage, sleep on a lower pillow, and stop snoring."

Yumei: "It's so difficult"

Gunsmith: "Any more questions? Just ask them all at once."

Yumei: "It's gone."

But within a minute, Yumei seemed to remember something and completely forgot what she said [no more].

"How did you know I sneaked away? Referee?"

Gunsmith: "When you want to foul, there will be a nervous micro-expression on your face, and there will be panic pheromones in your sweat. I can smell it from more than 50 meters away. I am very inspired."

Yumei: "Is there a way to cover it? It's convenient for me to commit another crime."

In the middle of speaking, Yumei finally felt impolite, so she stopped talking.

Gunsmith: "There are high-speed cameras watching. I'll stop in advance, it's more decent."

Yumei: "Oh, it looks like this. Then can you sign some autographs for me?"

The gunsmith was patient, rummaged through Garfield's trouser pocket, and took out a marker pen from the tool bag.

"Where to sign?"

Miss Yumei took off her jacket and pointed to the chest of her shirt: "Here, here, here!"

The gunsmith rolled his eyes, and kindly persuaded the fanatical fans.

"Why? Be sober! Be reserved! If my wife finds out about this, you won't survive the next day. I promise you in the name of Anonymous."

Yumei immediately said: "Then I take it off and sign it for you? I have several more! Sign them all for me!"

"Huh?" The gunsmith was dumbfounded.

Yumei is very sincere——

"—Gunsmith's signature! Even if I overturn the car again and hang my clothes on the salted fish, I can earn back the labor fee! I only know that I have been cheated miserably in such a mountain corner! I didn't expect there to be more. Windfall!"
