Silicon Invasion

#116 - discuss

Sitting in the school's small bus, Luo Rui was in a daze. Principal Wang and the head teacher were sitting around him, chattering on, but he seemed to be deaf, hearing nothing.

How did things develop so differently from what he expected?

Just now, in the small supermarket, although he hadn't said anything, he had received a lot of information. From the teachers' words, he was surprised to find that he had been too conservative.

Luo Rui originally thought that the two teachers from Beishan College were talking about recommendation, and that he needed to study for another year at Dongmu High School, and then enter the school with next year's college entrance examination.

But he had just shockingly discovered that things were not like that at all. If his parents agreed, the two teachers wanted to take him away now.

This was a bit beyond his understanding. Could a place like Beishan College also allow students to transfer in the middle of the semester? People have been in class for several days already, wouldn't it be bad for him to go now?

Moreover, although he had previewed the knowledge of the third year of high school during the summer vacation, it was only a preview. Now, he was being asked to skip a grade directly, and skip from the third year of high school to the first year of university. What if he couldn't keep up with his studies?

Also, if it works out, wouldn't he be able to directly become the senior of his group of classmates?

Thinking about it, he felt a little excited.

He just didn't know what his parents' attitude was. Looking at their hesitant and tangled expressions, it turned out that what they said before about supporting him was just talk. Alas, so annoying.

The two elders who were being complained about by Luo Rui were indeed very tangled right now.

"Lao Luo, what do you think we should do about this?"

A temporarily closed sign was hung outside the convenience store. This sign had been bought for four or five years, and now it was finally coming in handy. Luo's mother walked back and forth in the not-so-spacious aisle, occasionally bumping into the shelves, causing the glass bottles and jars on them to sway and tap against each other, making crisp sounds.

The dual interference of sight and hearing made Luo's father's head a little swollen. He waved his hand, squeezing his eyes and nose together, looking like he couldn't stand it: "Mother of the child, sit down, there's a stool here, sit for a while."

"I'm not tired." Luo's mother shook her head.

Was this a matter of being tired or not?

Luo's father was a little speechless, but he didn't dare to continue pestering her. Everyone was quite irritable now, and it wouldn't be good to cause trouble. Luo's father had a wealth of experience in this regard.

He gently moved the stool back, then shrunk his neck, using the computer on the cashier counter to block his view. Hmph, out of sight, out of mind, Luo's father comforted himself. But the matter at hand was easy to deal with, while their little rascal's matter was a bit difficult.

Just as Luo's father was frowning and his brain cells were dying in large numbers, Luo's mother suddenly stopped, clapped her hands, and said: "Why don't we just buy Xingkong E-sports? Anyway, we already have shares in it, and the house used is also ours. When we turn around and ask Lao Zhang to do some work, it should be possible."

Where did that come from? Why did she suddenly start talking about Xingkong E-sports?

"What are we buying that thing for?"

"Doesn't Xiao Rui like games? We'll take over the e-sports hall, and then let him watch over it, which can be considered a livelihood. It just so happens that he's coming back from that Beishan College, which can also be considered a major-related job." Luo's mother looked pleased, praising herself for her flash of inspiration.

Luo's father was stunned by his wife's imagination. What the hell was a major-related job? If it was an ordinary college, he could indeed say that, but that was Beishan College, and two teachers had made a special trip.

In Luo's father's opinion, that Xingkong E-sports hall was just a big internet cafe. It wasn't that he looked down on this industry. If he hadn't had a bit of luck, with his knowledge reserves, no one would even want him to watch over an internet cafe.

But people had made such a big show, saying that they were cultivating someone to watch over an internet cafe for the future. Even if he used his toes, he wouldn't believe it.

It could be said that as long as Luo Rui didn't slack off, the job of watching over an internet cafe was destined to be unrelated to him in this life.

When Luo's father told Luo's mother this analysis, Luo's mother was a little dumbfounded and dazed, and the light in her eyes seemed to have lost a layer of color. She murmured: "Then what should we do? Isn't there a higher-level league? Wouldn't that work either?"

"Alas, who knows? But according to my analysis, the possibility is very low." Luo's father spoke conservatively, not saying anything definitively.

"Why?"

"We know Xiao Rui's situation. He can cause such a big thing with just a broken keyboard. After professional training in the future, think about it, what level can he reach?"

"Wouldn't it be right for him to play in competitions then?"

"Hehe, let me put it this way, do you think there is any difference between a professional player or an internet cafe owner in the eyes of those above?" Luo's father held out a finger and pointed upwards.

Luo's mother seemed to understand something and nodded silently, but she didn't snap her fingers and shout "I am Iron Man", but instead asked: "Are you saying he will be recruited?"

"Isn't that obvious?"

"Then wouldn't he go to Maikan?" Luo's mother had never paid attention to these things before. If it hadn't been for the spatial rift that appeared nearby a few days ago, she probably wouldn't have been able to say the word Maikan.

"If he has the ability, naturally he has to do something. He can't be kept as a mascot, right?"

"Then wouldn't it be very dangerous?" Luo's mother really panicked. She originally thought that the most dangerous level was a real gun and bullet competition offline, but she didn't expect there to be something even more dangerous.

At least the competition still had some rules and restrictions, but the beasts in Maikan had no restrictions at all.

"It seems that the agreement we made with Xiao Rui before will have to be taken seriously..." Luo Rui could do it, and Luo's father was of course happy, with a sense of pride that he was worthy of being his son. It was even more desirable to be able to contribute to society, but if it involved a certain degree of danger, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

The conditions they had told Luo Rui before, such as finding a girlfriend as soon as possible and having a little Luo, to be honest, were mostly to scare Luo Rui. In fact, the two elders had never taken it seriously. How many students graduate from the mecha pilot major every year, and how many can go to Maikan? To put it bluntly, the number of mecha pilots is much larger than the number of mechas. Even if you want to go to Maikan to make a name for yourself, you have to have real skills.

They had never thought that their son would be so powerful that the school would come to him before the college entrance examination, and it was even the top one.

The two elders thought for a long time, but couldn't think of any good way. It was definitely not right to not let Luo Rui go. They had failed to do so with money before, and to this extent now, unless the two elders forced him to death.

But the two elders couldn't do that either, and they didn't want to see Luo Rui live a depressed life because of them.

"Alas, why did Lao Zhang choose to be childless? If he had a daughter, someone who knew the bottom line..."

It is said that there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome. Realizing that things cannot be violated, the two elders who were still sighing just now, in the blink of an eye, began to discuss enthusiastically which family's daughter was good and suitable to be a daughter-in-law.
