Grudge Chapter 1: Blind box

Published:

  The July of the Magic City is extremely hot, and the high temperature bakes and distorts the air.

  Because of the emergency orange high temperature warning, there were fewer pedestrians on the street than usual, and most of them rushed indoors.

   Chen Lu also quickened his pace, galloping down the street under an umbrella, and soon he was sweating.

   With a fruit basket and gift of condolences in his hand, he walked to a community.

   But he was stopped by security before he even entered the community.

  ”Foreigners please register.”

   “Where are you going?”

   The security guard looked at Chen Lu carrying a large bag and knew that it must be a simple visit to a friend. Inquiring was just a routine matter.

   “Hello brother, I’m going to my classmate’s house, seven buildings 802.”

   “Oh… it’s Wang Gang, right? I haven’t seen him come out from the door for several days. Are you sick?”

   Chen Lu nodded, “Yes, he hasn’t gone to school for several days, I just came to see him.”

   “Go ahead, go in.”

   The security guard waved his hand and refused to let Chen Lu register. Chen Lu thanked him and walked towards the Seventh Building.

   At the same time, his phone rang.

   is a message called [Super Sign-in System]. Chen Lu clicked to open a dialog box:

  ”Players, please go to the room of 802 Wanggang, Building 7, Yaxinju, to sign in.”

   “I see, please urge…”

   Chen Lu muttered, in fact, he went to Wang Gang’s house because of the trend of the sign-in system.

   All this is because a small program called [Super Sign-in System] popped up on the phone two days ago. As long as he completes the sign-in, he will get the corresponding reward.

  As a new generation of youth, he immediately judged that this was a fraudulent mini program.

   But by coincidence, the first sign-in system was in his toilet.

   Although he didn’t believe it, he still had to go to the bathroom or brush his teeth and wash his face. When he walked into the bathroom, he received two messages.

   one is a reminder of “sign-in successful” from [Super Sign-in System], and the second one is “Alipay transfer, one thousand yuan.”

   Now, Chen Lu was frightened. Is it possible that the sign-in system is real?

   So the sign-in system sent a new location the next day, the rooftop of his house.

   After going up with the mentality to give it a try, he actually received a cheat book called “Frightening Tiger Fighting Technique”!

   Before Chen Lu could react, a whole set of “Frightening Tiger Fighting Technique” appeared in his mind as if it were downloaded, and there was no barrier, and he was as proficient as years of immersion.

   Immediately after he punched him casually, he actually slammed through the wooden table at home. Had Chen Lu not had a mother, he would have been beaten to death by his mother.

  At this moment, Chen Lu has begun to believe in the sign-in system. After all, how can there be such an uncommon sense in the world?

   and Chen Lu received the third message at that time.

   [When a novice player completes the third novice sign-in, he can officially become a player and begin to sign-in. The rewards for the official sign-in are more abundant. 】

   And the third time I checked in was Wang Gang’s house.

   Chen Lu is ready, the elevator has reached the eighth floor, and 802 in front of him.

   “It’s so cold…”

   Chen Lu looked around. The corridor windows were strangely open, and the wind would always rush into the corridor, causing people to get goose bumps.

   Chen Lu rang the doorbell.

   “Ding Dong.”

   As the doorbell rang, Chen Lu could hear the sound of rapid footsteps inside, and then the door made a “click” sound. Chen Lu saw a somewhat haggard mother.

   “Excuse me, are you…”

   “I’m Wang Gang’s classmate, Chen Lu.” Chen Luyang raised the fruit basket in his hand, showing the smile of a good boy.

   “I came to visit classmate Wang.”

   “I really trouble you, please come in soon.”

  Wang Gang’s mother opened the door. Chen Lu took off his shoes at the door, and looked left and right.

   There is no Wang Gang.

   Looking at the closed door, Chen Lu thinks that Wang Gang should be in the bedroom.

   “Wang Gang, are you awake yet?”

   Mother Wang shouted at the door, but there was no response.

   saw Wang Gang never respond, and his mother’s face was also sad.

   Chen Lu looked at his mobile phone, and there was no prompt to complete the sign-in. Upon closer inspection, he turned out to be going to Wang Gang’s room.

   Chen Lu put away his mobile phone, he still has to act as a good classmate and ask about Wang Gang’s situation.

   “It made you laugh, Wang Gang is not like this on weekdays, but recently he has been in a bad state, so he asked for leave and didn’t go to school.” Mother Wang looked sad, and Chen Lu looked at the opportunity and raised questions.

   “Auntie, what is going on with Wang Gang these days? He is usually in good health.”

   “What’s wrong with him?”

   Mother Wang filled Chen Lu with a glass of water, her eyes full of worry.

   “I don’t know, he has been doing this since he went shopping two days ago and he came back.”

   “Oh…” Chen Lu took a drink of water from the glass, sipped it and continued,

  ”Auntie, can I go in and see Wang Gang?”

   “Oh.” Mother Wang sighed again.

   “It’s not that I don’t let you in. Every time he falls asleep, he will lock the door to prevent others from entering. He can’t enter before he wakes up.”

  ”Why don’t you wait here?”

   Chen Lu nodded.

   “Wait a minute, have a meal here, he will come out during the meal.”

   Mother Wang stood up, “There are still some snacks here. Take what you want to eat.”

   “Good auntie.” Chen Lu nodded obediently, and changed his mind to leave as usual, but he still stayed with a sly face, after all, he hasn’t signed in yet.

   Chen Lu swept around, and suddenly saw a black box.

   The black box is about the size of a fist, and it is incompatible with the quaint Chinese decoration around it. Chen Lu looked at it curiously and caught the attention of Mother Wang.

  ”This is what Wang Gang bought back from shopping that day. He said it was a blind box, but there was nothing in it.”

   Mother Wang’s voice came from the kitchen. After Chen Lu heard it, he approached some blind boxes again.

   He has heard of blind boxes. This thing has become quite popular among young people recently, and can give out all kinds of gifts.

   is just this blind box…

   Chen Lu noticed that there was some white powder inside, but it was very light, like a trace of something printed on it, not like there was nothing inside.

   Is it that Wang Gang didn’t tell his mother?

   or are there other reasons?

  ”Why is Wang Gang still not awake…” Chen Lu shook his legs~IndoMTL.com~ and became a little impatient.

   Actually, he didn’t really want to care about Wang Gang. The two of them were in the class for a lesson, and they didn’t talk a word, so let’s sign and leave.

   Chen Lu watched Mother Wang still cooking in the kitchen, and the kitchen made the sound of fume frying, so he quietly stood on his toes and approached the room.

  ”咚咚咚.”

   “Wang Gang, are you awake?”

   Chen Lu had no hope, after all, he knocked on the door very quietly and shouted very quietly.

   Chen Lu couldn’t explain his guilty conscience either, but suddenly wanted to be cautious. He felt that Mother Wang didn’t want him to disturb Wang Gang.

   There was a rustling voice in the room, and Chen Lu was shocked. It was the sound of someone approaching the door from the bed.

  Wang just woke up?

   “You…who are you?”

   “This is Chen Lu, your classmate!”

   “Are you…really Chen Lu?”

   “Yes, the teacher asked me to come to see you and ask when you can get healthy!”

   Chen Lu said so, but there was a depressed cry behind the door, and then a small slit opened, and Chen Lu saw Wang Gang’s eyes from the small slit.

   “Chen Lu, it’s really you… Chen Lu!”

   “Come in…Come in!”

   “Don’t be discovered by that woman.”

   Chen Lu looked at Wang Gang’s weird expression, it was an expression of disbelief, fear and hope intertwined.

   “What’s the matter, isn’t that your mother?”

  Chen Lu couldn’t figure it out, but the fear in Wang Gang’s eyes became stronger, his face showed up again, and the whole story was horrified.

   “No, my mother just went abroad a few days ago, the person outside is not my mother at all!”
