Friendly neighbors are villains

The "junior villain" has a system reward of one thousand dollars, but now Amy can live a life of spending money without extra remuneration. Her setting has given Amy great security, and no one will steal the bank. The mastermind hooks up with high school students.

Amy took off the VR glasses, and after confirming that the save file was correct, she turned off the display and completely exited the game.

There was an untimely pain in her arm, and she looked down at her left arm, where the skin did not show any signs of injury.

Amy stroked the sore place with her hand, which seemed to be the place where she was hit by a bullet in the game. She thought for a few seconds in confusion, and attributed this physical reaction to the nerve stimulation caused by the game to the player.

This is not a good phenomenon and will be complained by players. Amy will definitely add this physiological reaction to the ranks that need rectification.

She closed her eyes and rested for a while before organizing the problems found in the game into documents and backing them up on the computer desktop.

Amy's bedroom is similar to the decoration in the game, the difference is that only the landlady is in and out of the living room.

A video conference invitation popped up on the computer. Amy clicked on the link video option, and a video dialog box with five cartoon character avatars immediately appeared on the desktop.

Like Amy, they are all testers participating in the "Heroes" game. The organizer will let the people who have quit the game exchange ideas through meetings at a fixed time every week, and upload the collected BUG data to the headquarters of the head office. mailbox, and then analyzed and adjusted by a special person.

After a routine discussion, everyone went offline one after another.

"Amy, you are really good. You played Iron Man on the first day." The person who spoke was Amy's colleague named Yuko, a Japanese girl who just graduated from university and was in the internship period. For the original painting part of the game, she is still an assistant painter now, "I wanted to fall in love with Tony, but the one who talked to me was always Hulk."

"You can also try to rob a bank in Manhattan, preferably as close to the Avengers Building as possible, so that Iron Man will definitely rush over to buy you coffee immediately." Amy changed the chat channel with Yuko to private model.

"There is no Avengers Tower, I only have 'Stark Tower' in my game." Yuko said in her very Japanese English, "I am Tony's personal secretary, and he is basically not there, I do it every day. The thing I do the most is to call Tony and ask him to come to the company to work quickly."

Amy laughed: "It's so pitiful, I have to work for others to play a game."

"Ah, that's right." Yuko said, "The feeling of the game is a bit different from our first public beta half a year ago. The plot seems to be more complicated, and the graphics are a bit too real. Just now I quit the game, I always feel as if I'm still in it. "

"It's a little bit. It should be that the system was optimized in the later stage." Amy said disapprovingly, "Be careful not to get stuck in the game. In reality, there is no handsome and rich boss who is tempted by his secretary."

At the same time, Amy and Yuko thought of their middle-aged and bald boss.

"Today is a happy salary day, do you want to go out and have a Japanese meal?" Yuko suggested, "I think I haven't eaten authentic Japanese ramen for a long time, and I heard that a new restaurant opened in Queens."

Amy said: "I still have to pay the rent and send some money to my mother. Japanese food is too luxurious for me." She said a little dejectedly, "But we can still meet and eat something else."

"Don't spoil the fun, I invite you." Yuko said.

Amy and Yuko are two of the few Asian faces in the company. Because they are similar in age and eating habits, it is normal to be friends.It's just that Yuko's family is superior, her parents immigrated to the United States, and she works as a surgeon in a large hospital. She can live without any burden without the little internship salary.

Leaving the bedroom, Amy smelled a smell of baked bread, and a middle-aged woman in a beige apron came out of the kitchen in a panic. It was the landlady, and Amy called her Mrs. May (Mrs.May).

Mrs. May's husband died 10 years ago, leaving her present house. She has no children, so she rents out one of the bedrooms online.Mrs. May is about 40 years old, and she is in good shape. When she walks on the street, young people will still whistle to her.

Amy only moved in in the last two months. She lived in Brooklyn before, and the landlord was very demanding. She had to cut off the internet at 8 p.m., which caused a lot of trouble to Amy's work.

"Hi, Amy," Mrs May said apologetically, "I was making toasted sandwiches and I messed up, I hope I didn't bother you."

"Of course not." Amy quickly opened the living room window, "Do you need help?"

Compared with the previous landlord, Mrs. May is like an angel. She will neither disconnect the Internet casually, nor ask Amy to clean the toilet. Mrs. May keeps everything in order and does not need her as a tenant to do anything. thing.Every day, Mrs. May will prepare an extra dinner and dessert for one person and put it in the refrigerator, and Amy can eat it for free.

It is a pity that Mrs. May's cooking skills are really not flattering, and Amy only eats when she is too hungry and has no time to cook.Besides, Mrs. May is impeccably good as a landlord, she seems to enjoy taking care of young people, and she doesn't treat Amy like a normal tenant.

"Thank you, I can handle it." Mrs. May said very kindly, "Are you going out?"

"Yes." Amy said.

"That's right." Mrs. Mei thought for a while, "Next Saturday, my nephew will come back to live for a while..."

Amy has a bad omen: "I have to move, right?"

She works in New York and earns a decent income, but the city's expenses are staggering, especially the rent.It is very difficult to find cheap accommodation close to the company, and Mrs. May is a reasonable landlord, which is a double rarity.

Mrs. May quickly explained: "There is no need to move, I mean, my nephew likes to eat sandwiches, and Thai food, I have tried it many times these days." She shook her arm meaninglessly, "You see, I can't even make a toasted sandwich."

Amy was relieved to be sure she didn't have to look for a new house: "So you want me to do it for you?"

As long as she is not too busy to stay up all night, Amy is willing to cook by herself. The takeaway and daily diet in the United States cannot satisfy her appetite.Since Mrs. Mei ate her fried rice, it seems that the door of a new century has opened,

"I'll give you free rent for this month." Mrs. Mei said generously, her eyes full of longing and pleading, and she seemed to attach great importance to this upcoming nephew.

"Deal." Amy said, her rent is 1200 US dollars a month, including water, electricity, etc., 1200 US dollars for a meal, which is quite a bargain.

Amy and Yuko met at the grocery store, and the two chatted about some unnutritious topics, and occasionally talked about the content of the game, Yuko couldn't help but sigh why Tony hadn't fallen in love with her yet.

At this time, the wall-mounted TV in the grocery store suddenly broadcast an urgent news. A large bank in Manhattan was robbed today and lost hundreds of millions. The robbers have not been caught yet. I hope the general public can pay attention to the criminals.

The screen showed the face of the bank robber. To be honest, I couldn’t see it clearly at all. The figure was very blurry, almost black. The surveillance camera didn’t capture the robber’s front at all, let alone his face. There was only a rough outline.

The man was tall and burly, and he was covered in black clothes that looked like a cloak.

"It's a good thing I didn't deposit money in this bank." Yuko said, "It's too scary."

Amy put the tuna sushi in her mouth, and she stared at the TV for a while: "The most profitable way is written in the criminal law, now someone will get rich overnight."

Reality is not a game. If you want to take money away in the game, you can easily do it with a few clicks, and then use super powers or equipment to escape, and it only takes a few seconds.The reality is much harsher. It is almost impossible to get cash from the bank without careful planning and internal support.

And the news actually reported that the robbers didn't even shoot.

"You still seem envious?" Yuko asked.

Amy shook her head: "I'm just a little jealous." She joked.

The news will end soon, and this will become a big event in the near future, but it has nothing to do with Amy. Her salary is not high enough to keep the money in that bank, and Amy doesn't have much left every month.

Thinking that she can easily earn trillions of dollars in the game, Amy seems to understand why so many people like to indulge in "hero" games. In it, everything can be owned, and it is so real. If you just play games You can also have a full meal. She guessed that most people would rather stay in the game world than work.

After the dinner party, Amy went to a nearby bank to remit a sum of money to her mother in Los Angeles. She called and asked her mother not to be too tired, and if the Chinese restaurant could not survive, she would sell it.

"That's the token of love your father left me." Amy's mother made a dissatisfied voice on the phone.

"Mom, that's called inheritance." Amy has never seen her biological father, not even a photo of him. She is very unfamiliar with this "father" who died prematurely and will always exist in her mother's mouth.

The location of the mother's store is very remote, there are too few people in the past, and the monthly turnover is at most equal to the income. Amy has persuaded her mother many times to sell it and rent a small store near the scenic spot. The mother's craft must have been a thriving business.But she insisted on guarding that meaningless inheritance, saying that this was the only thought she had for her father.

If I want to be able to eat, my mother must weigh at least 200 catties.

After hanging up the phone, Amy sighed: "If I have the ability to rob a bank and I'm absolutely not greedy, I'll take 100 million."

"You are so kind." Yuko said teasingly.

Passing by an electrical appliance store, Amy and Yuko went in for a stroll.

Amy pauses in front of one of the latest computers.

"Wow, they are all top-level configurations. Look at this monitor." Yuko said, "I wonder if I can ask my father to give me one for my birthday."

"Then don't forget to notify me to worship." Amy tapped the floating keyboard made by the holographic projection, "I have already bought a building in the game, but in reality I can't even afford a computer. "

Yuko said: "After one month, you will be able to, remember, 10 rewards."

"You have to clear the customs." Amy said.

Yuko said: "I have a little confidence in myself."

Amy really lacked confidence. She checked on the Internet. Currently, there are no clearance posts from players in the "Heroes" game, and the strategy sharing on Youtube is not of reference value.

No wonder the company is willing to reward these testers with a reward of 10 US dollars, because the clearance rate is too low.

"By the way, after you get injured in the game, will it still hurt to quit the game?" Amy remembered something.

Yuko said, "I'm not hurt, I'm just a little thirsty." She said, "I have too many lines."
