Infinite Sims

"With my sister-in-law's personality, she shouldn't be too ruthless, and she can come back to work completely tomorrow."

Jiang Ren looked at Zhuo Dazhi who was picking durian shells in the fruit shop from a distance, and could only silently wish him good luck in his heart.

Turn around and walk across the zebra crossing.

He came to the opposite bus stop and waited quietly for the bus to arrive near his rented house.

beep!

A car stopped next to it, and the sudden sound of its horn caused dissatisfaction among many people waiting for the car.

In addition to the fact that the whistle was too close and loud, the car parked in the exclusive position of the bus in violation of regulations.

"Jiang Ren, I finally blocked you once!"

A head poked out from the driver's cab, and shouted to Jiang Ren who was thinking about what to eat for dinner: "Isn't it possible to have a meal this time?"

Zhao Liming?

Seeing the visitor, Jiang Ren frowned slightly.

Since exchanging contact information with Zhao Liming two months ago, the other party contacted him several times on the way, wanting to invite him out for dinner, but he politely refused.

One is that he is not familiar with Zhao Liming, and the other is that he was obsessed with the strategy simulation world and couldn't extricate himself.

I saw a bus coming from afar.

Jiang Ren thought about it and decided to get in the car, since he didn't know what to eat anyway.

Going forward, he looked through the window and saw a young woman with short hair sitting in the back seat, so he opened the co-pilot's door and got in.

Zhao Liming started the car and finally left before the bus behind him.

"Jiang Ren, it's really hard to treat you to this meal."

Into slow traffic, he joked over his shoulder.

"Sorry, I had some personal matters before."

Jiang Ren smiled and didn't mean to explain.

He was not familiar with him at all, if he hadn't taken into account the many invitations before, he would never have been able to get in the other party's car this time.

"Jiang Ren, let me introduce you."

Zhao Liming turned his head and gestured to the woman in the back seat of the car: "This is my girlfriend Xiao Qi, how is it, isn't she pretty?"

"You may not know me, but I have learned your name from Li Ming a lot."

With a smile on her face, Xiao Qi stretched out a hand to Jiang Ren.

Jiang Ren stretched out his hand to shake her, and then asked, "Is he complaining to you about me and rejecting his invitation?"

Zhao Liming rolled his eyes: "Am I that kind of person?"

Xiao Qi smiled and said nothing.

Sitting quietly in the back seat, he looked curiously at Jiang Ren who chatted with his boyfriend from time to time.

Cheap casual clothes, and a pair of old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses on her face, she looks like the ordinary white-collar workers she sees and forgets on her way to work every day.

But she knew that this person was by no means as simple as it seemed at first glance.

After all, when an ordinary white-collar worker suddenly encounters a classmate who is countless times better than himself, most of them will feel self-consciously humble in their hearts. Even if they pretend to be calm and pretend not to care, there will eventually be a trace of it.

But this man seemed to be in his own home, with a relaxed expression, without the slightest sense of restraint or discomfort.

Xiao Qi thought silently.

This old classmate of my boyfriend should not be an ordinary white-collar worker, maybe an executive of a certain company, but he doesn't pay much attention to clothes.

Only in this way can he explain why he can face all this calmly.

soon.

Zhao Liming stopped the car.

Jiang Ren got out of the car, looked at the western restaurant next to it which seemed to be of low quality, and there were already scattered couples inside, and seriously suspected that Zhao Liming was not going to treat himself to dinner today.

After being ushered to a seat by the waiter.

Zhao Liming took the menu and handed it directly to Jiang Ren: "You are a guest, please invite first."

Jiang Ren was not polite either, he took the menu and looked through it.

Looking at the names and introductions of the dishes in both Chinese and English versions, and even a few sentences in English mixed in from time to time, he felt tired.

It's not that I don't know English.

Thanks to the experience of "Hunter" running around the world, daily communication and writing in English are still no problem.

But also thanks to those experiences, restaurants like this kind of fancy decoration, superficial introduction in the menu, and mixed use of Chinese and English to show their difference and high-level, the taste is usually hard to describe.

Not saying it will be bad, just totally sorry for the price.

If he hadn't considered that he was the one being treated, the first moment he saw the menu, he would have wanted to get up and leave.

Jiang Ren sighed inwardly.

On the surface, he smiled and ordered a set meal.

He didn't bother to look at any appetizers, soups, side dishes, or main dishes. First, he had no hope for this restaurant, and second, this kind of western food with a relatively simple taste was not to his liking.

During the meal, Zhao Liming quietly observed Jiang Ren.

I wanted to see the embarrassment caused by this once influential figure, because he had never been to a high-end western restaurant, and made some inappropriate actions.

But soon, he found out that he was wrong.

Jiang Ren did exactly as he thought, he didn't observe the etiquette of which side to cut the steak from first, and shake the glass a few times before drinking the red wine.

But there was no embarrassment on the face of this movement that was incompatible with the surroundings. This kind of righteous movement and posture seemed to declare that this is the normal way to eat.

On the contrary, the way I and my girlfriend eat according to the rules is as uncomfortable as being put on shackles.

In contrast to the two.

On my side are two ignorant children, and on the other side is a mature adult.

"Illusion! This must be my illusion!"

Zhao Liming grabbed the goblet and took a sip of wine into his mouth.

At this time, he completely forgot the aristocratic etiquette of Western food that he had spent several years and experienced hundreds of times in Western food.

"Ugh."

Zhao Liming put down the goblet and sighed: "Jiang Ren, do you think it's getting more and more difficult to make money recently?"

"really."

Jiang Ren agreed, inserted a piece of steak that had just been cut, and put it in his mouth.

He had a premonition that soon he would not be able to eat quietly.

"I worked so hard on my business and drinking with my clients, but I only made a few million a year. Why do you think I worked so hard to start a business? If I knew it, I might as well go to work!"

Zhao Liming shook his head and sighed, while secretly paying attention to the changes in Jiang Ren's expression.

Seeing that he just nodded in agreement, he couldn't help asking, "Jiang Ren, what kind of industry are you working in now?"

"the Internet."

Without waiting for him to continue asking questions, Jiang Ren explained: "It's just an ordinary programmer who can't make much money, but fortunately, the job is relatively easy."

Zhao Liming was full of doubts: "You are wrong, you even lied to your old classmates."

Xiao Qi next to her looked up at Jiang Ren, and she didn't believe that he was an ordinary programmer.

"When did I lie to you?"

Jiang Ren put down the knife and fork in his hand and looked at Zhao Liming seriously.

One of the reasons for refusing invitations to treat guests many times before is that I don't want to encounter this kind of situation where I will be asked questions and listen to people nagging and showing off.

But since it has come, it can only be dealt with.

"It seems to be true, you really haven't lied to me."

Zhao Liming nodded, thinking of the slightly dirty neighborhood when he exchanged contact information with Jiang Ren last time.

Living in that neighborhood obviously couldn't be someone rich, so that made sense.

Zhao Liming raised his chin slightly, and said confidently: "My company also has a programmer position, if you have the idea of ​​changing jobs, you can come to me."

After saying this sentence, he immediately felt refreshed.

As for Jiang Ren, although the other party beat him up severely when he was a student, he really didn't have much malice.

But the former influential man is not doing as well as one of his employees now, which undoubtedly greatly satisfies his vanity.

Jiang Ren smiled, but didn't care.

Even before he got the system, he would not have any reaction to these words. Not to mention after obtaining the system and experiencing all kinds of colorful life.

Zhao Liming's so-called showing off.

For it, it's like a child showing off to adults how many yuan of pocket money he has every month, and it's fine if he doesn't laugh.

"Speaking of which, Jiang Ren, you should not be in the classmate group, right?"

While chatting, Zhao Liming suddenly patted his head.

"High school classmates?"

Jiang Ren was slightly puzzled.

Zhao Liming nodded and explained, "It's our high school classmates."

"No."

"Then I'll pull you in!"

"I don't really like joining groups."

Jiang Ren ate the fruit after the meal and refused directly.

"It's fine if you don't join, but you can't refuse the invitation from the classmate association."

Zhao Liming put the mobile phone he had just taken out on the table, and then said: "I have already told the people in the group that I have met you, and they asked me to bring you with me at the class reunion next month."

"classmate reunion?"

Jiang Ren hesitated.

After so many years, he has almost never had a relationship with his former high school classmates, and it is not interesting to go there.

"Do you still remember Concubine Lu? Our goddess in high school, she will also pass by."

Seeing his hesitation, Zhao Liming quickly said: "I'm not afraid to tell you, we have a classmate reunion every year in the past few years, but Concubine Lu has never been there. She sent a message suddenly when I said she would take you there. go."

Many people would have a favorite goddess when they were in school, and Concubine Lu was the goddess of most people at that time.

Jiang Ren was one of those small group of people. At that time, he loved fighting against injustices, and in his heart he pursued the belief that "there is no woman in his heart, and he is a natural god with fists." He only had boys and girls in his eyes, and there were no goddesses.

Of course, there was no such thing as a bloody woman chasing a man.

In fact, even when that incident happened, the dialogue between Jiang Ren and her did not exceed a hundred sentences, and most of them were conversations when homework was collected.

but

Maybe go see it.

Jiang Ren nodded slightly, and replied with a smile: "That's fine, send me the location and time in advance."

"Justice."

Zhao Liming excitedly raised his goblet and shouted, "Cheers!"

Under the weird eyes of the crowd, the two men bumped the cups together heavily. The clear and loud sound made everyone who heard it worry that the two cups would shatter on the spot.

Xiao Qi, who had been silently observing by the side, felt more and more unable to see through Jiang Ren.

Compared with her boyfriend who is in the game, from the perspective of a bystander, she can see the details of Jiang Ren's movements and expressions more clearly.

As a result, she half-believed what Jiang Ren said.

Believe that he is indeed a programmer, but not believe that he is only a programmer.

Considering that now is not the time, Xiao Qi is going to talk to Zhao Liming after returning home, if possible, try to maintain a good relationship with Jiang Ren.

Even if there is no help for the time being, at least it is a connection.

After drinking and eating.

Jiang Ren bid farewell to the two, politely declined the offer to send him back, and took a car back to the rented house alone.

Open doors, close doors, turn on lights.

The action was done in one go, and he took out the stored snacks and ate them.

"It's better not to go to this kind of invitation."

Jiang Ren's mouth was full.

Others are secondary, the most important thing is that it is difficult to get full.

Affected by the original power in his body, his appetite now is 2~3 times that of before.

You know, because he usually exercises for an hour every day, his appetite already exceeds that of many people of the same weight.

After becoming 2~3 times, you can participate in the Big Eater Competition.

With this kind of appetite, it's fine to eat alone, but if you eat like this when meeting with people, it will definitely attract a lot of attention.

When the hunger in his stomach disappeared, he stopped eating for the first time.

"If it is not necessary, the nutrition should only meet the daily needs. Otherwise, no matter how big my appetite is now, I will be obese due to excessive intake."

"The appearance is not important, the main thing is that it will affect my body's agility and coordination, which will lead to my lack of crisis response ability."

"And this is undoubtedly fatal."

Jiang Ren put away the remaining snacks, went to the closet beside him, opened the door and squatted down.

He took out a key from under the insole.

Inserting into the hidden keyhole opened the bottom plate under the wardrobe.

In the small mezzanine space, there is only a short metal stick wrapped in a transparent plastic bag, and several sets of light black raincoats.

"Murderers in film and television dramas like to put away their crime tools and take them out to enjoy whenever they have time, and even do some indescribable things to them in a psychologically twisted way."

Jiang Ren picked up the short metal stick, looked at the dark red marks on it, and shook his head: "Although I don't have that kind of bad taste, it doesn't seem to be much better."

Since putting metal short sticks and a few raincoats here.

He had only opened it once in the first few months, and only took one raincoat.

If Zhao Liming hadn't mentioned the class reunion and concubine Lu to him, he probably wouldn't have thought that there was a hidden danger here.

"If it was a day ago, it would have been a little troublesome to deal with it, but now it is much easier."

Jiang Ren thought about it.

The metal short stick disappeared from his hand, and several sets of raincoats disappeared at the same time, all of which were stored in the storage space.

There is no place in the world to hide things that is safer than a storage space.

Immediately afterwards.

Jiang Ren cleaned the lower mezzanine with a towel, put wallets, watches and other "valuable" items in it, fixed the bottom plate again, stood up and nodded with satisfaction: "There is nothing to worry about in this way. "

After moving his body, he was ready to start today's exercise.

As for the new simulated world "Gladiator", it is natural to combine work and rest, and go after a few days of rest.

Sorry, the next chapter is the new world, it will take more time at the beginning, so there is only one update today.

The new world has just started, so we can only keep the 6,000-word update first, and try to add more on the 4th and 5th.

(In order to avoid misunderstanding in this chapter, Guoguo explained: the main world will not have too many plots for the time being, and will not forcefully pretend to face, mainly to dig out the protagonist's past experience.)
