After several sandstorms, Beijing felt like early summer at the end of April. When Xiao Lang was riding a bicycle, it was nearly evening, and the old lady's nagging before going out echoed in her ears: "Come back crazy enough!" "
In order to play games, Xiao Lang was scolded by his family, but only relieved for two days at a time, and returned to the computer room to start playing. The mid-term exam has just passed, and the arrival of the May Day Golden Week has once again ignited the war. This time, Xiao Lang was well prepared. The basket was full of crispy noodles and mineral water of various flavors, and there was enough military expenses in his pocket.
"Crazy enough? Hey, it will take three days at the earliest! "
There used to be an Internet cafe not far from home, which was once a hot spot for Xiao Lang and his friends, but after several large-scale encirclement and suppression by his parents, he had to start digging new strongholds. Every holiday, Internet cafes, large and small, will play various preferential tactics to attract students who are hard up. Xiao Lang has an appointment with a friend. As long as anyone finds an Internet cafe with a big discount and enough seats on the street first, they will call each other to inform each other.
At this moment, Xiao Lang's thoughts have flown to the virtual world. Looking at the pedestrians in the street, the children become gnome magicians, the migrant workers who build roads seem to be digging for treasures, and the aunts and grandmothers who enjoy the cool don't know what magic they are reading. The most exasperating thing is that the traffic police still standing in the middle of the road actually stopped him from trying to run a red light. Looking at the distant back, Xiao Lang secretly scolded: "Grandpa buried a bomb and you dare to come out and see me shoot you without firing a shot!"
Leaving the main road of the ring road, Xiao Lang somehow limped into a remote alley. The dim street lamps flashed strange eyes, and the wild cats eager for love in the distance sang loudly at their necks.
"How did I get here?" Xiao Lang was about to go out by bike when a light blue light box, Blue Fast Internet Cafe, suddenly lit up in the alley. The billboard at the door even reads: Special price for the May 1 Golden Week,' Thursday Run' frequency, including overnight 10 yuan. There are more than 40 computers neatly in the internet cafe. Besides more than 20 players, there are more than a dozen computers available.
Xiao Lang immediately took out his mobile phone: "Xiao Bai! what did i say? There are always surprises when land is reclaimed, you don't believe it. I just found an Internet cafe. What's its name again, Lanchong? It costs ten yuan to brush the night. Come with someone! I'll go and sit down first. "
"Boss! My friend will come soon. It is estimated that you will take over the remaining dozens of computers here. We will spend two days and three nights in the bushes. You don't think it is necessary ... "
The small boss is less than 30 years old. Thick glasses at the bottom of the bottle occupy more than half of his face. He can't see the hidden eyes by reflecting light. He wrote something without looking up: "Oh! You can rest assured that no one will come again tonight. Name? "
"Xiao Lang." Some pessimistic voices made Xiao Lang feel uncomfortable. Stranger still, the boss even wrote books with a brush and red ink.
"No.25 machine, go!"
Xiao Lang, who was sitting on the seat, was shaking all over: "Why do I always think this Internet cafe is a bit strange, but where is it strange?"
The players around Xiao Lang are staring at the screen with headphones, with sunken eyes and greasy hair, but their faces are not tired at all, and they still stick to the front of the position.
"Dude, do you come here often?"
"hmm."
"How long have you been playing?"
"Four years."
"Four years!" Xiao Lang's exclamation attracted the attention of the whole Internet cafe. Without anger, everyone's face looked at him as if he were wearing a mask. As if to say, "four years is a long time, what's the fuss?"
Hurriedly sorry and said hello to everyone, regardless of the people on the side. Xiao Lang started the game himself, and whispered, "I told you the strangeness of Internet cafes, these guys are not interested in playing games! . "
Xiao Lang never stopped screaming, screaming, cursing and complaining when playing games with his friends. His expression was full of joy, anger, sadness and joy. All you can hear in this internet cafe is the tapping of the keyboard and the friction between the mouse and the desktop. It's quiet, not like an Internet cafe, but like a library. Stranger still, all computers seem to be running the same game: CS.
It is said that CS Xiao Lang has always claimed to be the best of the best. Listening to different kinds of gunfire echoed in his ears, Xiao Lang seemed to have changed from a high school student to a professional killer, enjoying the wailing of the enemy before he fell to the ground. Xiao Lang, born timid, seems to find a sense of balance in this killing game.
Twelve policemen on the LAN are fighting fiercely with twelve gangsters. Their names are arranged from "Ghost0 1" to "Ghost24".
"The name of the living is a ghost, I will come!" Thinking of the traffic police on the road, Xiao Lang simply entered "Ghost00" in his name and joined the gang.
Not the kui is a small wave, his joining has greatly reversed the disadvantage of gangsters, and there is also a crazy record of "World War I Five" in an emergency. If in normal times, the whole internet cafe will cheer for it, but no matter what happens here, everyone just silently starts the next game.
Ghost0 1, originally the second husband, later became a traitor and a policeman. No matter whether Xiao Lang hides in the dark, he will be found, whether he hides in the dark or carefully lays mines. Moreover, the other side's level is not generally high, often only one bullet will definitely kill Xiao Lang. Even if Xiao Lang follows other people 1 1, he will inevitably be killed by stray bullets. After killing Xiao Lang, Ghost0 1 ignored other gangsters and just swept the body. After more than ten rounds of reciprocating, Xiao Lang's ranking changed from the first to the last.
"Network management, someone cheated!" Xiao Lang couldn't help being angry any longer. He suddenly stood up from his seat and shouted at the boss at the door.
"who?"
"Ghost 0 1!" Xiao Lang's words once again attracted the attention of the whole Internet cafe, and his expression remained callous.
"Ghost 0 1? We are all ghosts 0 1! " Twenty-four people said in unison, as if they had been trained. The hollow voice and vacant eyes made Xiao Lang's scalp numb.
I reluctantly sat back in my seat. The clock on the wall has passed 10, and there is still no white figure at the door. "The action is slow enough." I want to call you to remind you, but there is no signal on the mobile phone in the Internet cafe.
"It's still a long time anyway. It's best to sleep before they come. " Thought of here, Xiao Lang fell asleep at his desk.
In the dream, he became a gangster in the game wearing camouflage clothes and holding AK47. Shell casings danced in the firelight, a heavy knife struck, and blood gushed out from the enemy's neck. Look at the label on him. He just assassinated his own Ghost0 1. After cutting the enemy by hand, Xiao Lang and his team killed the enemy and fled everywhere. The battlefield is full of bodies and guns left behind. It's just that there are fewer and fewer allies behind him, while the police on the other side have multiplied and climbed to the top of Xiao Lang's position like a zombie with a straight face. Facing this crazy enemy who doesn't care about his own life, Xiao Lang began to feel afraid. Yes! Where is the concept of death in the game? No matter how powerful a person is, there will always be ammunition when he runs out. With the roar of heavy machine guns, bodies piled up under his feet.
"hey!" The hollow knocking sound of the firing pin was infinitely amplified by the auditory nerve, and at the same time, another camp threw an overwhelming number of grenades at Xiao Lang. The flame burns every inch of skin, and the feeling is so real. Wait! This taste ...
Suddenly, Xiao Lang woke up from his dream, and the Internet cafe turned into a sea of fire. Xiao Lang had to lower himself in the thick smoke. The explosion of the display screen, people's screams and the rapid running sound all seem to be the continuation of the dream just now. The pungent smell of plastic melting, the rising floor and the falling light overhead told Xiao Lang that it was all true. Regardless of the hands and feet scratched by broken glass and burnt hair, Xiao Lang finally climbed to the wall.
"Follow the wall and you will find the exit!" There seems to be a glimmer of hope. The smoke is getting thicker and thicker, which makes Xiao Lang cough constantly. The whole internet cafe is only 50 square meters. Why didn't you find the door after climbing for a long time?
Just when Xiao Lang was about to despair, the words "safety exit" flashed in front of him.
"It's the door! I am finally saved! "
The hope was so real, but I left in such a hurry that a huge "general didn't dismount" blocked the fire door from the inside. Xiao Lang was crying. There was fresh air and cool night outside, but Xiao Lang's life was doomed to be swallowed up by the fire inside.
"It turns out that death is like this, and it is not like a space in the game to be reborn. I don't want to die, I'm still young ... "Tears turned into steam in front of my eyes, slowly taking my senses away from my body.
"Hum ... Hum ..." The vibration of the mobile phone on the desk brought Xiao Lang back to real life. "It was all a dream just now. It scared me to death!"
"Ah! Xiao Bai! Where the hell have you been? What time is it? Don't come yet Here we are ... "Xiao Lang looked around, and only he and the boss at the front desk were empty in the Internet cafe. "We have no one here, come here soon!"
"Little waves!" The little white voice on the other end of the phone has been shaking. "I called you for a long time just now, but no one answered."
"yes! There was no signal just now, you are cold! There is nothing to shake! "
"Small waves! What did you just tell me the name of that internet cafe? "
"Blue rapid progress! You haven't even thought about your name for a long time! "
"no! Do you still remember a sensational news in Beijing four years ago? An Internet cafe caught fire and 24 people were killed. "
"There seems to be such a thing. What's wrong? "
"That Internet cafe is called Blue Rapidly ..."
"Ah! Xiao Bai! Hold on, hey! " No matter how Xiao Lang shouted, there was no sound on the other end of the phone. Recalling this weird Internet cafe just now, Xiao Lang felt cold sweat on his back.
"Boss, check out! This is ten dollars. Keep the change. "
"Ten dollars doesn't seem enough!"
"Ten dollars is not enough! I still have, fifty! All for you. " At this time, Xiao Lang didn't bargain, just want to leave this strange Internet cafe quickly.
"Hey hey!" The boss looked up, and Xiao Lang clearly saw the whole face for the first time-a face distorted after being burned, and his eyes seemed to be smoked white, without black eyes. "We don't charge money here."
"So ... what do you want?"
"What we want is that you play games with us." 24 monitor turned to Xiao Lang together. There is a face on each monitor, that is, the 24 people who play games. But unlike just now, these 24 faces are full of creepy smiles. ...
"An unknown man's body was found in the ruins, and his identity remains to be investigated."
