It’s over, I’m surrounded by weirdos and players

Chapter 124 Acid is really sour (4201 words in total)

At two o'clock in the afternoon, there were two or three customers sitting sporadically in the cafe near the school.

The sun shines through the windows on the floor, reflecting warm yellow light and shadow.

Lin Yi found the location at a glance.

Sitting opposite is the tutor's wife Lin Meijun, a middle-aged woman in her forties.

Her temperament is gentle, giving people a warm and friendly feeling.

A pair of bright and lively eyes looked at Lin Yi gently as he sat down, and his tone of voice was as soft and comfortable as the spring breeze blowing on his face.

Lin Meijun's sitting posture was upright, and her every move showed an intellectual elegance. She handed over the menu at hand and asked: "Xiao Lin, what would you like to drink?"

"Mrs. Lin, you're welcome, I can do it myself." Lin Yi said, reaching for the waiter and ordering a cup of mocha and a piece of chocolate mousse.

He and Lin Meijun had only met twice, and their relationship was not very familiar.

But Lin Meijun's husband, Lin Yi's mentor Jin Kongji, has always taken good care of Lin Yi, and even specifically mentioned his work last time.

Lin Meijun couldn't sit still. She didn't know what was going on in the mountains, but she still knew Jin Kongji's physical condition.

Mrs. Lin is a family member and cannot participate in the project.

The hot mocha in the cup exudes the rich aroma of coffee, and paired with the exquisitely presented chocolate mousse, it is mouth-watering.

She thought for a long time that she could only come to Lin Yi for help.

No matter when she called, the other party's line was busy and she couldn't get through.

"So is the mentor back now?" Lin Yi asked thoughtfully, changing the subject.

Lin Yi took the registration form and glanced at the contents. The personal information section above was blank. Only the approval column below was filled with consent and accompanied by a signature and seal.

Lin Meijun knew at a glance that Lin Yi had misunderstood what she meant, and said again: "His temper will not come back until he finishes what he wants to do."

Who would have thought that the school leaders would say that the contents of this inspection were confidential and would be kept secret from non-participants.

Lin Yi silently picked up the hot mocha and took a sip.

It was precisely because of this agreement that Lin Meijun reluctantly agreed to her husband's journey.

As a result, the student told Mrs. Lin that the instructor had not returned from taking people into the mountains.

Realizing that Lin Yi had already finished the chocolate mousse in front of her, she said again: "Would you like another piece? The chocolate macarons and tiramisu here are also very good, do you want to try them?"

The year before last, my tutor had an accident due to a field trip and had a major operation. Since then, his health has not been good.

"Hello, here are the coffee and desserts you ordered." The waiter arrived and interrupted Lin Meijun.

Lin Meijun immediately explained: "This is the registration form for the next batch of people organized by the college to go to the small mountain village. Only those who sign and stamp their consent can go."

"You want me to go to the small mountain village to bring the tutor back?" Lin Yi frowned. His tutor was stubborn and wouldn't even listen to his own wife. How could he listen to a student?

"I want you to help me check if he is in good health and help take care of him."

Lin Meijun said gratefully, "Thank you."

Before the instructor set off, he made an agreement with Mrs. Lin that he would call every day to ensure that he was safe, and he would speak out if he felt uncomfortable and could not hide it.

"Mrs. Lin, you don't have to be so polite."

After a while, Lin Meijun told her why she came.

"You said that he is in his fifties and his health is not as good as before. He still thinks that he is a young man and acts recklessly." When Lin Meijun mentioned her husband, her eyebrows were full of worry.

It turns out that last week, Lin Yi's mentor Jin Kongji received an anonymous message, saying that a rare animal was found in a small mountain village, which was probably an extinct animal.

I have been recuperating in the past two years, and the number of inspections has been reduced by more than half. I basically conduct experiments in an area near the school.

The response I received after sending a message was that the signal was unstable.

I didn't expect that I would run so far this time regardless of my physical condition.

Lin Yi listened silently, not daring to express any opinions.

"Is this?" He looked at Mrs. Lin puzzledly, not quite understanding what she meant.

Lin Yi quickly waved his hand, "I have always been cared for by my mentor. It's great to be able to help now."

No wonder Lin Meijun is so worried.

Lin Meijun smiled sheepishly when she saw this, "See, as I get older, I talk a lot and tend to get off topic."

"It's because he didn't come back that I wanted to ask for your help." Lin Meijun said and took out a registration form from the small bag she carried with her.

She didn't know why Lin Meijun felt uneasy, so she asked someone to inquire for a long time before she contacted a student who was going with her.

Nowadays, when there is a place that needs help, there is no need to refuse.

Along with the message was a clear picture of half an animal.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Lin, I agreed to this." Lin thought for a while. Anyway, he had nothing to do recently, and his mentor had always taken special care of him.

After reading it, the instructor immediately arranged for people from the school to go to the small mountain village to inspect, saying that he wanted to witness it with his own eyes.

The relationship between the two is very good.

I went to the school leaders early the next morning to find out where they were and prepare to take them back.

But three days ago the phone calls turned into text messages.

"This is my contact information. If you need to prepare anything, please call me." Lin Meijun reported a number, looked at Lin Yi seriously and solemnly entrusted: "Our old Kong will be asked to take care of you."

"I will definitely take good care of my mentor." Lin Yi nodded heavily.

The two exchanged contact information and sent the picture to Lin Yi, who was a little curious.

This is the only information Mrs. Lin has in her hands.

Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Lin Meijun stood up and left.

Lin watched the other party leave, then reached out to the waiter to order a chocolate macaron and tiramisu.

Since you’ve already come, why not try them all.

He didn't admit that he was greedy.

While waiting for the dessert to be served, Lin opened the picture at 1 p.m.

A mouse head was exposed, and a small part of its body was exposed, and a layer of feathers could be vaguely seen on it.

It is several times larger than an ordinary mouse and is about the size of a full-month-old baby.

Lin Yi tried his best to recall some of the information he had read in the library. He remembered that there seemed to be an extinct animal that was somewhat similar to the above.

Called Flying Squirrel.

It’s just that it’s not clear from the picture whether that layer of feathers actually grows on the body.

It becomes blurry when enlarged.

The whole picture looks like it is somewhere in the mountains. This animal that looks like a flying squirrel is standing under a tree and does not know what it is doing.

Suddenly something in the lower right corner caught his attention.

A small rag-like thing appeared in the right corner of the suspected flying squirrel. The red symbol printed on it was exactly the same as the strange symbol Lin Yi saw in Daddy Long-Legs' letter.

Is it

Lin Dun was no longer in the mood to eat. He packed up the desserts and rushed back to the orphanage.

Compare the symbols on the letter paper with the symbols on the picture. They are the same.

three days later.

Lin Yi successfully submitted the registration form, sent a message to Mrs. Lin, and then returned to the caring community.

The players spent a lot of effort repairing Residential Building No. 1. In order to satisfy Lin Yi and get points smoothly, the six of them even secretly drank a bottle of stamina potion, just to work overtime and finish it as soon as possible. .

Lin Yi was very satisfied and affirmed about the results of the players' efforts.

Residential Building No. 1 has been completely transformed and has a completely new look.

The exterior walls are made of dark gray bricks with large glass windows, and the design is simple and fashionable.

The appearance of the building is neat and smooth, and the details have been carefully processed. The peripheral windowsills of each floor are matched with green plants, giving people a fresh and natural feeling.

The solar panels and rainwater collection equipment on the roof are even more surprising.

This is something that has never been done before. Entering the building, the spacious and bright lobby is like an art exhibition hall.

Soaring ceilings and warm decorations on the walls create a homey feel.

The lobby is paved with solid and beautiful marble floors, which are very stable when you step on them.

Entering the resident floor, the spacious corridor is clean and tidy.

The walls are made of eco-friendly materials and the colors are bright and vibrant.

Each floor is equipped with new elevators and fire protection equipment, providing residents with convenience and safety.

Electronic locks are installed on the outside of each unit door, providing greater security.

I randomly selected a resident's house. The interior space was well laid out and the lighting was soft and warm.

Ventilated windows allow sunlight to flood into the interior, creating a sense of natural light and comfort.

The decoration styles are diverse, and each unit shows a different personality and taste, which is very interesting.

The entire rebuilt residential building exudes new vitality and vitality.

After checking it, Lin Yi even considered whether to go downstairs and let these players take responsibility.

Under the expectant gazes of others, Tong Gongbai shouted, "Dean."

"Not bad, well done." Lin Yi praised.

Following his praise, all six people received system prompts.

At this moment, the players were stunned and subconsciously looked at Lin Yi.

Their system panels all refreshed with the same message.

[Congratulations on successfully completing this recruitment mission]

[Task settlement reward: 300 points]

[Additional reward: Dean Lin’s favorability +30]

[Current contribution level: 20 (can become a regular employee after reaching 100)]

[Thank you for your contribution to the caring community, you will get priority for the next task]

At the same time, a general announcement also sounded in the player lobby.

[System notification: Love community recruitment order (first batch) task status]

[Task progress: 100%]

[Task settlement reward: 300 points]

[Additional reward: Dean Lin’s favorability +30]

Seeing this piece of information, everyone in the player lobby was stunned.

"Did I read that correctly?"

"Am I dazzled? It's 3, not 30, right?"

"Just a task like this, and the favorability level increases by 30. What kind of good dean is this?"

"Whoa, whoa, why didn't I get it!"

"I'm so sad, I'm really so sad. It's really enviable to get points and increase your favorability."

Many players have turned into lemon essences, with sour smell all over their bodies.

Meeting an NPC who can gain favor in a strange world is like buying a lottery ticket. There may not be one in ten thousand.

NPCs that are friendly to players and can increase their favorability are even rarer than national treasures.

How lucky a person must be to encounter such a good thing.

So sour!

At this time, another general announcement appeared.

[Recently, the reconstruction of the caring community has entered the first stage of investment and investment, and the first batch of talent recruitment plans has been a complete success. Loving community recruitment orders will continue to be issued, and the second batch of talent recruitment plans is under preparation. The general public is asked to wait patiently and actively participate.]

"I must grab the second batch!"

"It's time to practice your hand speed."

"Ahhh. Come quickly for the second batch!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu I don't believe that I can't snatch you away with my hand speed after being single for more than 20 years."

The six people who are still in the caring community don't know that the player lobby is crying and howling at this moment. Their minds are still focused on their contribution and formal work.

"Dean, can I ask a question?" Tong Gongbai spoke cautiously under the gaze of the remaining five people.

Lin Yi was in a good mood now, crossed his arms and nodded to the other party, "Ask."

“What about becoming an official union?”

This question raised the voice of all players present.

"After becoming a formal employee, you will have an ID card to enter the community, and you can take on community tasks according to your own wishes." Lin Yi glanced at the rules and regulations on this area of ​​the system and summarized them in simple language.

"Can we also get points for community tasks? Just like what we have done these days?" Tong Gongbai breathed heavily, with an excited look on his face.

Lin Yi replied with a normal expression: "Of course, it's the same pattern. Only the content of the mission has changed."

Little did they know that this answer caused huge waves in the hearts of the six people.

If they could complete tasks and gain points without taking risks, then they wouldn't need to download any dungeons.

No one likes to live in a dangerous place all the time.

The same goes for players.

If it weren't for the sake of survival and earning points in exchange for living materials, how many people would be willing to risk their lives in the dungeon.

"Then how do you get this contribution?" Ding Li was simple-minded, but he also knew the huge benefits of formal employment, so he couldn't wait to ask.

"The same is obtained by completing tasks. There are still so many places that need to be rebuilt later."

Lin Yi casually pointed to the pile of damaged buildings behind him, "But we'll have to wait for a while next time."

After all, he doesn’t have many points and cheat coins in his pocket. He has a long way to go if he wants to build a caring community.

"We are destined to meet again."

Lin Yi noticed that the phone in his pocket was vibrating, and immediately waved to the six people as a farewell, and kicked them out.

He answered the phone and found that it was Mrs. Lin.

The two chatted for a few words before hanging up.

Then he received a new message on his phone.

[Dear classmate Lin Yi, please confirm the precautions and fill in the signature] Go to the No. 1 Teaching Building at o'clock tomorrow morning]

[xxx inspection project team]

[Note: This project is confidential, please do not mention it to others, violators will be responsible for the consequences]

After this message, I received another 5,000-word note within two minutes, with a URL link attached to the last page.

Click on it and an electronic disclaimer will pop up immediately.

Only after signature and confirmation will everything be considered approved.

Lin Yi hesitated for a moment before signing.

Soon I received another message from the school.

[Dear classmate Lin Yi, you have passed all the reviews and will gather at Teaching Building No. 1 at o'clock tomorrow morning]

[xxx inspection project team]

[Note: This project is confidential, please do not mention it to others, violators will be responsible for the consequences]
