Ke Jia didn't have any other intentions, he was just in a daze for a moment, just thinking that Lu Xiuqi must not let Lu Xiuqi see the weird scene in the fish tank.

"Open the door!" Seeing Ke Jia locked the door, Lu Xiuqi panicked, wondering if the assistant didn't handle the fish well?Hastily banging on the door forcefully, while yelling for Ke Jia to open the door.

Ke Jia's heart was pounding, and he fished out the dead fish with his hands, but after watching for a long time, there was nowhere to deal with it, and Lu Xiuqi screamed outside again, which made him flustered, and in desperation, he could only hold the dead fish in his palm , and then walked over to open the door for Lu Xiuqi with a guilty conscience.

"What are you doing in there?" Lu Xiuqi looked at Ke Jia's flushed face and asked him strangely.

Ke Jia put her hands behind her back, lowered her head halfway, not daring to look into Lu Xiuqi's eyes, she was stunned for a few seconds before smiling awkwardly, and said, "The door was suddenly locked just now, it's really evil."

Lu Xiuqi frowned at him, and subconsciously glanced at the fish tank on the windowsill. From a distance of two or three meters, he counted the number of fish in the tank, and found nothing wrong.

"I'm going out first. The fish just finished feeding. They are alive and kicking. They look really good." Ke Jia seemed to be afraid that Lu Xiuqi would see something, and said a little superfluously, and then, regardless of Lu Xiuqi's expression, he just walked past him. go out.

Lu Xiuqi looked down at the water stains dripping from Ke Jia's hands on the ground, and after a few seconds of meditation, he went to the window sill and carefully checked the goldfish tank, but found nothing unusual.

Holding the dead fish in his hand, Ke Jia went into the bathroom almost as if fleeing for his life, threw the dead fish into the toilet and flushed it away, and pressed the flush button several times, fearing that one of them would not pay attention, and the other would The fish came back up again.

After Ke Jia finished these things, he washed his hands four or five times carefully. He didn't turn off the tap until the back of his fair hands started to turn red from the cold water. The feeling still can't be washed away.

"Ke Jia, are you okay?" At this moment, Lu Xiuqi knocked on the bathroom door and called Ke Jia's name outside.

This was the first time Ke Jia heard Lu Xiuqi call his name, but he was not in the mood to think about it now, he just poured water on his face again, and then turned and opened the door.

"What's wrong with you?" Lu Xiuqi looked at Ke Jia's pale face and asked worriedly.

Ke Jia grinned dryly, shook her head, and walked towards the kitchen in a nonchalant manner.

Looking at his back, Lu Xiuqi always felt that something was wrong. He grabbed Ke Jia's wrist and said softly, "If you feel unwell, we can have takeaway at noon."

Ke Jia stared at Lu Xiuqi with distracted eyes for a while, then nodded in a daze, "Okay, I just don't feel well, and I want to go back to my room to have a rest." After speaking, she directly pulled her arm out of Lu Xiuqi's palm and nodded. He entered his room without looking back, and even locked it rarely.

As soon as Ke Jia returned to the room, he immediately took out the pencil. After what happened just now, even if he took a look at the pen now, he felt cold all over his body.

The ecstasy and pride of getting this magical brush is gone at this moment, and all that is left is boundless fear.

Ke Jia is a lover of horror movies. When he lives alone, he likes to turn off the lights and close the curtains, and watch a few horror movies alone to decompress. But he never dreamed that one day he would become the protagonist of a horror movie .

He simply thought that this pen could help him achieve his wishes, as long as the things he wrote down would definitely come true, but how did these things come true?

Just like the dead goldfish today, why didn't this pen keep the fish alive, but let them die and conjure a lively goldfish out of thin air?

Thinking of this, Ke Jia couldn't help shivering again.

But people are always greedy, and Ke Jia has already felt too much convenience brought by this pen. Even if he discovered the weirdness of the magic pen at this time, Ke Jia was absolutely reluctant to throw it away.It's just that I don't dare to use it as casually as before.

Ke Jia lifted the pencil up and saw that the tip of the pen had been worn down to the point that it was almost invisible. It was only at this time that Ke Jia realized that even if there were no side effects from using the magic pen, it would eventually be used up like an ordinary pencil.

So even without any side effects, the wishes that Ke Jia can make with this pen are not endless.

Ke Jia finally regained consciousness, carefully put the pencil back, took a few breaths to adjust her mood, and then reopened the door and walked out.

Lu Xiuqi had been sitting in the living room. Seeing that Ke Jia finally opened the door, he immediately looked up. Seeing that Ke Jia's face seemed to be getting better, he slowly put his heart back to its original position, and he didn't ask Ke Jia any more. Instead, he said lightly: "I ordered a meal, and it will be delivered in a while."

Ke Jia smiled and nodded, feeling a little more comfortable. At this moment, he was very glad that he still had a roommate. If he was alone at home just now, he would have been scared to death by that dead fish.

"What happened to you just now?" Lu Xiuqi endured and endured, but he still couldn't restrain himself from asking.

Ke Jia froze, scratched her head uncomfortably, walked over and sat next to Lu Xiuqi, hesitated before asking, "Brother Lu, do you know that I won the lottery?"

Lu Xiuqi frowned slightly, and nodded calmly.

"Then do you think... 500 million is not enough for anything?" Ke Jia knew that even if Lu Xiuqi was down and out, he was still a noble man who had seen the world, so he wanted to test his opinion.

"Yeah." Lu Xiuqi sincerely gave an affirmative answer. In his eyes, 500 million is indeed nothing more than small change.

Ke Jia smiled wryly, "Most ordinary people think that if they win the 500 million grand prize, their lives will be complete, but now that I have 500 million in my hands, I really feel that nothing is enough..." He also calculated carefully After a while, I went back to my hometown to buy a house for my parents, and I bought another house to decorate and keep it for later when I went back to live. In addition to buying a car and daily expenses, there was really not much money left.

"You think it's missing?" Lu Xiuqi moved his fingers.

Ke Jia was noncommittal, and muttered as if she had made up her mind: "I think money is limited, and ability is also limited. I have to find a way to open a long-term road for myself."

"What?" Lu Xiuqi didn't hear what he said clearly.

"Brother Lu, I'm going to talk to the director about the salary increase tomorrow, do you think it's okay?" Ke Jia found that he was used to discussing with Lu Xiuqi before doing anything, as if this would increase his confidence Same.

Lu Xiuqi breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Ke Jia and asked, "How much do you want to add?"

Ke Jia thought about it. His current salary is 18k, which is not too high or too low. He plans to make up the whole thing first. After all, if he asks for a salary increase that is too high, he feels that even with the blessing of the magic pen, the director will not agree. .

"Do you think this number is feasible?" Ke Jia raised two fingers and asked Lu Xiuqi.

Lu Xiuqi lowered his eyes, "Just try it and you'll know."

Ke Jia seemed to have received some kind of affirmation, suddenly smiled and nodded vigorously, then got up and ran into the room quickly.

He took the magic pen out of the box again, and solemnly wrote on it with fear and expectation: I hope that I can successfully raise my salary by 2000 yuan tomorrow!

There happened to be a demand review meeting on Monday, and Ke Jia participated in the review as a member of the project team. He had been absent-mindedly thinking about how to ask the director for a salary increase after the meeting was over, but unexpectedly at the meeting, Ke Jia suddenly was named.

Ke Jia’s personality is just like this, he doesn’t like to compete very much, he just does his own job well, even if he has any opinions, he doesn’t want to mention them, anyway, there are plenty of people who are better than him in the company, there is no need for him to show off, and it may not necessarily be the case in the end adopted, and possibly offended.

But today I don’t know what’s wrong, maybe it’s because the impending salary increase has brought him motivation, Ke Jia was stunned for a while after being called, then put down the pen in his hand, and said bravely: “Party A is going to do it. Smart home cameras need to be added to our AI recognition algorithm, so I think we can add a blacklist reminder function to the software for this requirement.” Ke Jia wanted to talk about this idea as early as the first demand review meeting , but I feel that it is more troublesome to say it, so it is better to hold it in my heart.

It's just because of these recent events that Ke Jia seemed to be dazzled by good luck, and she didn't care too much, and directly expressed her long-formed thoughts.

Unexpectedly, just after he finished his sentence, the audience was silent for a few seconds, and then PM nodded and said: "It seems that such a function needs to be added, I will write it down first, and I will communicate with you later on how to reflect it on the prototype diagram. .”

Ke Jia blinked, unable to believe that someone actually recognized his idea.

"Ke Jia, you performed well at the meeting just now, and you will boldly put forward any opinions and ideas in the future. I heard that you seem to be a little more advanced? Your design will be very popular in the future." Unexpectedly, after the meeting, Ke Jia still While packing up his things, the director actually came over to talk to him first.

Hearing the director's praise, Ke Jia quietly blushed two blushes, smiled shyly, and summoned up her courage to ask: "Director, I want to talk to you, is it convenient now?"

"It's convenient, come on!" Unexpectedly, the director agreed without hesitation, as if he had expected that Ke Jia would talk to him.

Ke Jia didn't bother to pay attention to these details, and followed the director into the office with her head down.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Ke Jia hesitated to speak after sitting down, but the director broke the silence first.

Ke Jia blinked, took a deep breath and said, "Director, I have been here for more than a year, and there should be no problems with my work. I think... can I adjust my salary appropriately?"

This is the job that Ke Jia has worked the longest since he graduated, so it is also the first time he has asked his boss for such a salary increase in the workplace, so he can't help but feel a little guilty.

"How do you know that I happened to have this idea recently?" I didn't expect the director to say such a sentence.

Ke Jia looked at him in surprise.

"You are indeed capable, but you may not be so expressive, but this does not prevent me from thinking that you have a bright future, so I have been considering the matter of salary increase." The director does not seem to be lying at all. The rhetoric really seemed to have been prepared long ago.

"Do you think you can accept an additional 20k?" The director continued.

Ke Jia's heart skipped a beat, "How much?!" Didn't he write down two thousand on the note yesterday?Could it be that he was too nervous and wrote an extra zero to become [-]?
