Chapter 1, The Mysterious Parchment.
Cough! I just find it a bit difficult to accept the way young people speak
What the hell
What the hell!
Today marks the release date of Tengli Company's latest holographic masterpiece, "Blue Ocean"
Instinctively, Fang Yue wanted to reach out and stop the car
It has disappeared! How could it have disappeared!
In the height of summer, his hands and feet were icy cold
... ...
I opened the Didi app on my phone and called for a taxi
Soon, I made a decision
If I had believed the words of the parchment at that time, the outcome would certainly not have been this!
A middle-aged man with stubble lit a cigarette and looked at another person
Yes, yes, yes ... ...
Fang Yue took out the parchment.
I put down the small electric stove, boarded the bus, and prayed to arrive at the game watch distribution store as soon as possible
No one can be seen in the screen, but sounds can be heard
The people in the vehicle also directed their gaze towards Fang Yue, but Fang Yue remained standing in place and did not get on the bus
The appearance of parchment looks very vintage, as if it is something that would only be used by the nobility of the medieval era
Master, let us take a detour to have a look.
I am riding my beloved electric scooter, hurrying to the nearest game watch distribution point
Oh, it's the air conditioning of the bus, then it's nothing to worry about
The middle-aged man asked, "Xiao Miao, what have you observed?"
Upon hearing this, the crowd cursed a few times, but the driver merely shook his head
With multiple points of travel costing money, one can still enjoy the spectacle, so why not take pleasure in it
Nine minutes later, I died
Bang
Fang Yue carefully examined the parchment.
I am very anxious and worried about not being able to purchase the watch
Knowing my name, it must be a prank by an acquaintance
Indeed, it is this ending again. Can't you come up with something new, parchment?
Unfortunately, the sports car collided head-on with the bus, resulting in the car being reduced to a pile of parts, and the individuals inside were so severely injured that their bodies could not be fully recovered
In order to purchase the gaming watch earlier, I got on the bus
I was somewhat exasperated, but after careful consideration, I decided to keep this strange parchment and act according to its instructions
The vehicle that overturned these two buses was a streamlined luxury sports car. Fang Yue could not discern the brand, but she knew it was worth at least 10 million.
The image on the large screen was turned off, plunging it into darkness
... ...
Fang Yue
The taxi drove along the road, and before long, Fang Yue saw the scene of the accident, and her pupils instantly constricted
I will die in eight minutes
The text on the parchment disappears and reappears
Five minutes later, the bus was involved in an accident
The bus has stopped, yet I am hesitating whether to board it
I have checked the records of this vehicle. The last trajectory was from Mingyue Factory, crossing the Jianghai Bridge. It then passed through Xinfeng Road and other nineteen blocks, before suddenly turning around on Lianyi Road and accelerating wildly back for five blocks, colliding with a bus and resulting in death
Damn!
The screen violently rolled and flipped, landing on the ground, followed by a scene of chaos
The bus driver clearly saw Fang Yue's gesture of raising her hand, slowed down, pulled over to the side, and honked the horn twice
She was a woman in her early twenties, possessing an outstanding figure and exquisite features
I am dead
Three minutes later, the bus was involved in an accident
Fang Yue's expression darkened
A line of text message appeared before my eyes
"Hurry and find it for me! It must be found, otherwise we will all be doomed!"
A bus that has overturned on the ground is engulfed in raging flames, with noticeable indentations in the middle section, as if it has been violently struck by a heavy object
Before my death, for some reason, the parchment I had just picked up would always come to mind, and I was filled with deep regret
What the hell! Was there a car accident? Did a fuel tanker explode?
As if aware of Fang Yue's thoughts, words began to emerge once again on the parchment.
When Fang Yue looked in that direction, it was unmistakably the direction in which the bus had departed
The driver gave an awkward smile, while Fang Yue lowered her head to look at the parchment
It is said that this time Tengli Company has also launched lucky gift packages, hidden within game watches with random numbers. If you delay, they might be snatched away by others
Xiao Miao increased the volume: "No way, could it be that no one can tell that these two are looking for something?"
Doo
Too slow! Too slow! Speed up for me again! Accelerate! Return to the previous place...
This time, the text on the parchment faded quickly, and lines of text reappeared
What is wrong with me? What will happen after I get on the bus? Just say it! If you can't say it, I will tear you apart!
The cold keeps his mind clear
Who has died
Fang Yue found an excuse for his own timidity and caution
Suddenly, a bus appeared in front of the sound
You just died
Young man, are you getting on the bus or not
I left behind the parchment, but I do not believe in the contents of the parchment.
President Liu's expression stiffened, and he awkwardly changed the subject: "Therefore, the items they lost must be within this area. I want you to secretly investigate this matter."
Just as Fang Yue was about to get into the car
Is it dead again
In a moment of impatience, she became flustered, and Fang Yue almost truly got into the car
The spacious car door resembled the entrance to hell, making Fang Yue hesitant to act recklessly
I took down the parchment and saw the content on it, which instantly filled me with confusion and curiosity
At that moment, a bus happened to arrive in front of them, specifically the No. 33 bus that could take them to the distribution store
A 10% discount on the water bottle? Is that it? Is that really it? At just over 200 yards per hour, there was an accident?
The taxi driver was very experienced and quickly took me to my destination
My name is Fang Yue, I am twenty-three years old, recently graduated, currently unemployed, but I have a certain talent for gaming
Fang Yue's anger was about to erupt when her phone suddenly vibrated, and the screen lit up
The only three living people left in the car screamed as they crawled out, while the rest were either severely injured or already dead
On the screen is the footage from the dashcam
I did not believe the words on the parchment and treated it as a prank, throwing the parchment away
At that moment, a strong wind blew, and a strange piece of parchment stuck to my face
Fang Yue began to entertain devious thoughts
But I did not expect that this piece of parchment would actually be my last lifeline
The gaming watch is really going to be gone! What should I do...
In a pitch-black room, there is a large screen.
This thing... is probably very valuable
Ten seconds later, a text message arrived, notifying me that the distribution store only had 10,000 units of the game watch left, urging me to hurry and make a purchase
Fang Yue's words were exactly to the liking of the experienced driver, who nodded repeatedly
Listening to General Liu's incessant chatter, Chen Xiaomiao let out a sigh
In order to purchase the gaming watch as soon as possible, I called for a Didi taxi
The room lights illuminate, highlighting the layout of the room
I may have stumbled upon something extraordinary
My "Blue Ocean"
Tengli Group, Branch No. 399, Jianghai City: This store has only 10,000 units of the "Blue Ocean" game watch left. We urge all players who wish to purchase to act quickly
However, at this moment, there are only two people sitting in the conference room
These adults clearly understand how to handle this situation better than Fang Yue
What is this black technology
Fang Yuegang was about to throw away the parchment again when he suddenly froze in surprise
After a pause, General Manager Liu lightly tapped his index finger on the table
You are acting very strangely
Fang Yue's expression darkened, but the action of throwing away the parchment in his hand came to a halt
Is this the focus?
Why is Mr. Liu not speaking
Fang Yue awkwardly smiled and shook her head, saying: "I won't get on the bus. I'm sorry, I misread the number; I thought it was bus 35"
A year later, I became a millionaire
The bus slowly departs
It is better to believe in its existence than to believe in its non-existence
Just at that moment, a bus arrived
The experienced taxi driver was so startled that he trembled, nearly dropping the cigarette he was smoking
The people on the vehicle waited for a while and began to complain.
In the evening, I can only secretly play for a little while
I have survived
Beep beep
A sudden jolt ran through his heart, and he was suddenly filled with a sense of dread
I thought this parchment was merely a prank among friends
I believe that parchment is very valuable, and I plan to contact the seller after I return to sell the parchment.
Not far away, a sudden and intense explosion was heard
Just as the hand was halfway extended, the movement suddenly froze
I successfully purchased the gaming watch I desired
What the hell
Isn't this exactly what is written on the parchment!
He stopped the small electric scooter and looked around; the road was only filled with passing vehicles
At the scene of the car accident, many vehicles have already stopped, rushing over to provide assistance, while some are calling out loudly, and others are dialing emergency services.
He has just graduated from university and is currently in a state of financial destitution, even renting a cheap shared apartment, so he is indeed in need of money
This is a room similar to a conference room
Driver, let us go
Good
Three minutes later, the taxi stopped by the roadside
However, after a moment of slight contemplation, he still discarded the strange parchment.
Mr. Liu, can I refuse? The launch of "Blue Sea" is tonight!
Does this thing also have mind-reading abilities? That's quite terrifying
Are you out of your mind! Do you believe I will tear you apart!
Wait a moment
Will it still be interrupted?
Before the brakes could even be applied, the entire vehicle crashed into the bus
Hurry up! Give it to me faster!
Once the taxi had distanced itself from the accident scene, Fang Yue let out a sigh of relief in her heart and quietly reached for the parchment she had placed in her pocket
Never mind, buying a gaming watch is more important
Beep beep
I only considered promoting you because of your youth
Fang Yue felt somewhat bewildered
The text on the parchment gradually faded line by line, only to reappear line by line.
However, it feels extremely smooth to the touch, akin to satin
Fang Yue looked utterly unconvinced
In ten minutes, I will be dead
According to the parchment's prompt, I did not get on the vehicle, I survived
But it is still a bit cold
... ...
Is gaming more important than work? Don't think about it; we are a bounty company, and once we take on a job, we must get to work. Reputation is the most crucial.
No way... Could it really be that this parchment has predicted it?
Indeed, how are young people so indecisive nowadays
Is this really a millionaire? Nonsense
Flames soared into the sky, and thick smoke billowed upward
Therefore, I have decided to become a professional player
I ... ...
