Soling Internet Cafe

"Teacher Bai, the press conference will start in 10 minutes, please prepare to go downstairs."

There was a knock on the door and a notification, Bai Jing woke up and rubbed her temples.

"Got it." She agreed and stood up.

Probably because she has stayed up too many nights recently to catch up with the manuscript, and she has exhausted her mental energy. She has always been a little bit listless these days.Or maybe it's because summer is coming.

Bai Jing adjusted her clothes in the mirror.She wore a light water-colored long-sleeved dress today, part of her waist-length hair was loosely pulled into a bun with a mahogany hairpin, her blue hair was loose, and she was wearing a jingle ring. She was walking on the street as tall as a model Feilin, who must have murdered many people, but she just took a look in the mirror without interest to make sure that she was not disheveled, then picked up the mask on the table, put it on her face, and walked out.

A staff member stood outside the door, dressed in formal attire, with his head bowed, waiting respectfully for her to come out.

"Teacher, this way please."

Bai Jing followed her to the elevator.

The VIP room is on the second floor, and the venue for the event is on the first floor. At the beginning, the organizers thought about letting her go down the spiral staircase, so as to create the effect of being surrounded by stars and give the whole event a bright spot, but Bai Jing refused. .She didn't even want to show her face in front of people, let alone appearing in such an exaggerated way.

The corridor was empty, probably because it was a private room today, and I didn't meet a single staff member along the way.

At the elevator entrance, the staff member stretched out his finger and pressed the down button before stepping aside.

Bai Jing glanced at it, and felt something was wrong.Where is it?

The elevator made a slight operating sound, slowly ascended from the first floor, and with a "ding" sound, the elevator door opened.

The moment Bai Jing walked in, she suddenly realized what was wrong with her just now.

However, any high-end hotel waiters, especially those who are responsible for guiding guests and helping to press the elevator, will either wear white gloves when serving, or at least keep their nails neatly trimmed and clean, and will never keep them. The long nails are also painted with bright red nail polish.

"you……"

Bai Jing turned her head and was about to ask something, when out of the corner of her eye she suddenly found the elevator door opened in front of her, the elevator didn't come up, and what greeted her was a pitch-black hole.The height difference of nearly five meters means that once she accidentally falls, the only thing waiting for her is death!Bai Jing broke out in a cold sweat, she was already leaning forward following the fall of that leg, fortunately she found it in time, she quickly reached out and grabbed the elevator door next to her.

However, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, someone suddenly pushed hard behind her, Bai Jing's hand was loosened, and she couldn't control her fall anymore, she staggered and fell into the pit.

Bai Jing looked up hastily in the darkness, only in time to see a pair of seductive red phoenix eyes next to the door made of white light.

"Oh!" Bai Jing woke up suddenly, sat up and panted desperately.She touched herself, then looked around, and it took a while to realize amidst the beating of her heart that she was just having a nightmare.

There was a knock on the door: "Teacher Bai, the press conference will start in 10 minutes, please prepare to go downstairs."

Bai Jing's face changed, she stood up and looked at herself in the glasses.Light water-colored long-sleeved slim dress, simple and elegant hairstyle, apart from his pale face and a little shortness of breath, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Understood." She responded, quickly adjusted her clothes, picked up the mask on the table, and opened the door.

The staff members outside the door lowered their heads respectfully, seeing her coming out, they hurriedly stepped aside.

"What's your name?"

The staff member was obviously taken aback when she heard the words, she raised her head, revealing a plain and ordinary face, with such ordinary features that even if you meet them head-on on the street, you won't have any impression.

"Teacher, you can call me Xiao Wang."

"Okay, Xiao Wang, I'm sorry to trouble you." Bai Jing smiled, but her eyes stayed on Xiao Wang's hand.

It was a pair of hands that were a little rough and obviously often used to do housework, the nails were trimmed to the flesh, and they were very clean.Bai Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Wang smiled shyly: "Teacher, please come this way."

Bai Jing followed her to the elevator and watched her press the down button.

The elevator made a slight operating sound, and slowly went up until there was a "ding" sound, and the elevator door opened.

This time Bai Jing didn't go straight in, she didn't even stand in front of the elevator, but stepped aside and stood sideways.

"Teacher?" Xiao Wang stretched out his hand to block the elevator door, and looked at Bai Jing with some doubts.

"Oh, thank you." Bai Jing nodded at her, reconfirmed that the inside was not a hole, and then walked in.

One step, two steps, suddenly, Bai Jing saw a reflection on the mirror wall in the elevator, and by the time she realized what it was, it was already too late.

"Heh...heh...heh..." Bai Jing turned over and sat up again, touching her back in shock.She reached out her hand to touch the wet water, and when she looked closer, she realized that it was the cold sweat from fright, not the blood from being stabbed by a knife.

Another dream!

Bai Jing looked at the mirror in the room, and the mirror reflected her appearance at this moment, sweating profusely, her face was pale, and even her makeup was worn out.

"Duk duk", there was a knock on the door, which raised Bai Jing's nervousness to the highest point, followed by a voice from outside the door: "A Jing, are you awake? I'm coming in." Then, The door was opened, and Lin Yingzhi, Bai Jing's manager and partner, walked in.

"What's the matter, sweating profusely?" She asked with concern.

Bai Jing breathed a sigh of relief.Yes, this is the reality, the press conference is about to start, how could Lin Yingzhi, her manager who has always done everything by herself, casually hand things over to a waiter she doesn't know, but she doesn't show up?She even checks every accessory and eyeliner on her face before letting her out, even if she doesn't need to show her face in front of people at all.

"I had a serial nightmare." Bai Jing stood up, "It's terrible." She said, and then she went to take off her clothes: "I can't wear these clothes."

Lin Yingzhi avoided the scene where she was changing clothes, and took out a cartoon one-piece suit with a dog-headed hat from her bag at the side, and handed it over: "Put this on first, and I'll iron the spare skirt for you. And the makeup also needs to be reapplied." She glanced at her watch, "Time is too tight."

Bai Jing shouted: "Lin, help me pull down the zipper."

Lin Yingzhi had no choice but to go over and pull down the long zipper of the dress for her.As the zipper slid down, a flexible and strong young man's body was revealed under the dress, full of masculine strength.

Bai Jing, no, it's time to call him Bai Jing now, Bai Jing took off her fairy dress, and she doesn't look like a fairy at all, except for that long hair, he is a sign of handsomeness youth.After he took off the hairpin and put the headgear on the table, now he couldn't even see a trace of the girl.

"I'm sorry, you bought it specially for your brother."

"Just wash it later." Lin Yingzhi said, "I'll go down and explain it. Let the host warm up the scene first and come up later."

"it is good."

Bai Jing's real hair is only as long as his shoulders. He casually tied his hair into a ponytail, and slowly wiped off the residual makeup on his face in front of the mirror, while his mind was still thinking about the two nightmares just now.

If one were to analyze it in terms of superstition, he would be haunted.

Bai Jing remembered that when he was a child, his grandmother often told him that when spring comes, everything will recover, not only snakes, insects, mice and ants, but also some things that live in the dark environment will wake up together, and when summer comes, they will become active. Expect.

What has he provoked again?

Recalling the pair of seductive eyes in the dream, Bai Jing couldn't help stretching out his hand to hook the thing hanging around his neck. It was a mahogany plaque with a totem of a mythical animal with two horns like a lion carved on it. The wooden plaque was old , the surface has been patted by human hands for a long time, and it looks as smooth as beeswax.Touching the signboard, Bai Jing felt a little relieved.Since childhood, this brand has blessed him through many difficulties, and it should be the same this time.

"Dong dong", there was a knock on the door.

"Please..." Bai Jing turned his head, and was surprised to find that it was not Lin Yingzhi who appeared at the door, but a strange man dressed in hip hop.

"Roy?" Bai Jing almost called out.

As a supporting role in Bai Jing's writing, Roy is not only deeply loved by fans, but even Bai Jing himself has a preference for this role. That's because Roy is not just a fictional character for Bai Jing, but also a companion to Bai Jing Partners who grew up together.

Bai Jing's parents immigrated abroad in his early years, and he grew up in China with his grandmother.To save him from being lonely, his grandma bought him a lively and loyal German Shepherd, which is Roy.During Bai Jing's lonely, long and bizarre childhood, Roy was not only Bai Jing's little partner, friend, but also his patron saint.Because of Roy, the gloomy ancestral house in the country has become less scary in Bai Jing's eyes, not to mention that Roy has saved Bai Jing's life intentionally or unintentionally several times.

"Roy has a deep bond with us, so don't be sad, he will definitely come back to you in the future." When Bai Jing was 16 years old, Roy came to the end of his life, watching his weak breathing, Bai Jing couldn't help crying, and refused to bury Roy desperately.

His grandma persuaded him like this: "Don't be too sad, otherwise Roy will be reluctant to leave. If it stays in this world, it will harm it. Let it go well, so that it can come back to you as soon as possible."

Grandma’s persuasion may be pure consolation or it may really have some kind of magical power. After Roy left, Bai Jing started to create the Bai Jingjing series by accident, supplementing his childhood experience with wild imagination, and finally turned it into the Bai Jingjing series of comics. It has won the love of countless people.At the beginning, Bai Jingjing was not followed by the black cat Storm, but the German Shepherd Roy, but for some reason, Bai Jing always felt that the German Shepherd Roy he wrote was very different from the original Roy. , he reluctantly overturned this setting, and later, a lively geek and information dealer who was always dressed as a black stick boy suddenly appeared in his writing.

This small supporting role that Bai Jing wrote by accident, originally only intended to complete the mission of one episode and never appeared again. Who would have thought that after writing it, he would quickly come to life by himself. When Bai Jing realized it, he found Roy is back!But now... Bai Jing looked at the young man at the door and fell into a momentary confusion.

"Sorry, I'm looking for the bathroom, but I seem to have lost my way. Do you know where the bathroom is?" Chang Yuxin asked standing at the door.He didn't want to disturb others at first, but he really has three urgencies, besides, the relationship between men is generally not that particular.

"Hello?" Chang Yuxin had no choice but to call out again when the other party stared at him without saying a word.This meeting place is too convoluted, and he doesn't want to bother others if he can.

"Restroom?" Bai Jing came back to his senses, and he quickly recalled that there is actually a restroom on the first floor, but because the floor is relatively high, the men's restroom is located in the middle mezzanine, and to get there, you have to take a detour from the other end .Bai Jing replied naturally: "You can go to my place."

"what?"

"The public toilet is quite far away, I think you are in a hurry?"

"Hey, it's really urgent." Chang Yuxin smiled, "Then I won't be polite."

Bai Jing waved at him: "Come in."

Chang Yuxin ran in briskly, and after a while, rushed out of the toilet again.

"Thank you bro."

"What's your name?"

"Huh?" Chang Yuxin was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the suit on Bai Jing's body, he yelled out, "Isn't this... Isn't this the limited edition peripheral clothes of Roy's debut? My God, it's not on the market. Is it out of print, are you an imitation?" He stretched out his hand as he spoke, as if he wanted to touch it but didn't dare to make a mistake, scratching his head like a dog food in front of him but the owner hasn't ordered it to be eaten, so he was so anxious No dog.

Bai Jing couldn't help laughing: "It's true. It's out of print on the market, and the publisher still has a few sets of samples. Do you like it?"

Chang Yuxin nodded vigorously: "I'm a die-hard fan of Roy!"

"Then..." Bai Jing rolled his eyes, "My sister works in this publishing house, and I'm here to play with you this time. If you like it, I'll secretly make a set for you."

"Really?" Chang Yuxin opened his eyes wide, and quickly turned on the phone, "Add a WeChat buddy, we will be good brothers from now on."

Bai Jing smiled and turned on the phone. Lin Yingzhi manages his external contact numbers, and he only has relatives and friends.

"Okay." Chang Yuxin finished adding the contact information, "My name is Chang Yuxin, I called you by name, the event will start soon, I'll go down first, let's talk back."

"Okay." Bai Jing watched with a smile as he ran out quickly, as agile as Roy when he was young and middle-aged.

When Lin Yingzhi came back, she found that Bai Jing's mood had improved, and she asked him suspiciously, "What happened just now?"

"It's nothing, it's just that Roy is back."

"Ok?"

Bai Jing smiled: "It's time for us to get ready."
