Brainoid

Ji Lian advised her to listen to her mother more? Qi Mi narrowed her eyes slightly, not quite understanding what this meant.

Ji Lian saw that she seemed a little confused and asked, "How does your mother usually treat you? Does she care?"

"What does this have to do with what we are going to say?" Qi Mi asked.

"It's related to future strategy." Ji Lian concluded clearly.

"My mother... is very busy." Qi Mi said reluctantly, "I don't know if it's normal to be too concerned. Anyway, she has never been to my parent-teacher conference since I entered junior high school."

"That's normal. If other parents know that your family is very rich, you will be annoyed to death at school all day long." Ji Lian said immediately.

"How do you say that?" Qi Mi didn't understand.

"It's okay to be a wealthy person." Ji Lian said, "There is also a person in our class whose family runs a company, and he is always given special attention. Not only do his classmates come to make connections, but the teacher also often picks him up."

"Isn't it nice to be popular?" Qi Mi asked.

"What, you like this?" Ji Lian asked.

Qi Mi thought for a moment and shook her head. She has always liked to keep to herself, and would not get too close to even her classmates who were good friends in the class. This was originally due to her poor legs and feet, but now it has become a fixed character.

"So it's better to keep a low profile. There's nothing wrong with your mother in this regard." Ji Lian said maturely, "Then does she care about you at home?"

"She is very busy." Qi Mi just said.

How busy a person is is probably related to the size of the business she does. Ji Lian thought for a while and asked, "How busy are you?"

"She wasn't awake when I went to school, and she hadn't gotten off work yet when I got home." Qi Mi said unhappily, "I don't know what to do at night."

"Will she have dinner with you?" Ji Lian asked.

"Eat - can people not eat anymore?" Qi Mi felt strange.

"Then this is really not busy." Ji Lian couldn't help but say, "My mother and the others are just like this even if they work normally. If they work overtime, there won't be anyone around for dinner."

"Are you all so busy?" It was the first time Qi Mi heard that other parents were as busy as her mother - didn't it mean that the law stipulates eight hours of work a day? Calculating if I go to work at 9 am, it takes eight hours to get to 5 pm.

She used to think that only people with no fixed working hours, such as management positions and team leaders, would work until after five o'clock, while employees who clocked in could get off work on time. According to this idea, she originally believed that the positions of leaders and employees have their own advantages and disadvantages. Leaders work long hours but have high wages, while employees work short hours and have low wages. The effort and income are corresponding. Now it sounds like that's not the case.

"You are always so busy no matter what job you do." Ji Lian said, "Your mother has time to have dinner with the family every day, which is quite good."

"No, isn't the law stipulating eight hours of work?" Qi Mi asked.

"Exactly, the eight-hour working day and nine to five have been talked about for a long time." Ji Lian said, "996 has been popular since ten years ago - that is, you go to work at nine in the morning and get off at nine in the evening. , working six days a week.”

"Isn't this against the law?" Qi Mi asked.

"Who knows, anyway, work is like this now." Ji Lian used the straw in the cup to stir up the pieces of grass jelly at the bottom. "996 means working 12 hours a day, which is actually similar to high school. Our school's high school department Morning reading starts at 7:30, and evening self-study ends at 9:30, which is 14 hours. From Monday to Friday, there are two hours more than 12 hours a day, which adds up to 10 hours, and the total is two hours less than 996 .”

Listening to what he said, Qi Mi really felt that the future was full of misfortune. High school was described as a terrible time by others in her class. The first and second years of high school were very heavy with academic work, and the third year of high school was spent day and night reviewing the content of the college entrance examination. It would be fine if it was only once in a while, but if the work that I have to do for the rest of my life is like this, it would be completely gloomy.

"I really want to drop out of school." Qi Mi couldn't help but say.

"Well, even if your eldest lady doesn't go to school or work, it doesn't matter if she relies on her family to support her." Ji Lian sighed and shook his head, "We ordinary people have no choice. We have to study no matter what."

Even though she knew he was pretending, Qi Mi couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable in her heart. She had to admit that when she learned that the average person's work was 12×6 hours a week, the first thought that came to her mind was that she must work hard to meet the standards of the heir, so as to avoid being like those " "Ordinary people" live a work life that is more painful than high school. But if Qi Mi said these words intact, I'm afraid it would make Ji Lian feel uncomfortable.

He's a "regular guy" and he knows it. In the story about Qi Mi's chuunibyou, she herself is the real protagonist and the heir to the brain-like body empire, but in Ji Lian's story about chuunibyou, he himself is just the protagonist's strategist. Under the current situation of class segregation, even young people from different classes no longer have the same dreams.

But that has nothing to do with the matter at hand.

Ji Lian brought the topic back to Qi Mi's family situation: "Hey, don't talk about this. I found some new news yesterday. It is said that a Russian hacker came to the black market merchant who advertised in the old city. Selling personal information.”

"What's the difference between Russian hackers and Chinese hackers?" Qi Mi quickly asked.

"Of the two old districts of Brainoid, the St. Petersburg district has fewer people and less control than the Beijing district. The Russian hackers who used to be the most active on the Internet have basically transferred their 'business' to the Brainlike." Ji Lian Explained, "Fortunately, the development of any items in the Brainoid is completely controlled by the Brainoid Company, otherwise these people would probably have riddled the St. Petersburg area with holes."

"Is this kind of person also coming to Beijing District?" Qi Mi asked worriedly.

"According to rumors, it has already arrived. We need to carefully observe the trends in the Old City standings in the near future..." Ji Lian lowered his voice and said, "I plan to go and find out in person this time. If you have time, you can come with me."

"Do you speak Russian?" Qi Mi asked.

"Hey, it doesn't matter if you know Russian. Can't you just use a translation plug-in?" Ji Lian said, "I went because since the other party is not Chinese, even if the brain-like body company investigates in the future, I can still say that I don't know. Whatever the other party did, at least it would prevent me from getting my account banned."

"Hahaha, you can't be banned in a brain-like body." Qi Mi couldn't help laughing. Although she hasn't been to the brain-like body much since junior high school, she also knows very well that the identities in the brain-like body correspond to the real world one-to-one, and there is no such thing as being banned or not. Of course, there are definitely punishment rules, but they are not by logging off the player's identity.

Ji Lian blushed a little when he was told that. He waved his hands to cover it up and said: "I was just making an analogy. It's not good to be locked up in a dark room without blocking your account, right?"

I haven't been feeling well lately, so I'm sorry for not updating on time... (But I still update daily, and I admire myself very much)
