i was my mistake

"Okay... I'll try." A game coin 'guludonglong' rolled in, and she tried to move her paw.

She has almost never played claw machines, but she still thinks it is quite new.

She imitated what she had seen in the video, shaking her paw vigorously, making it shake quickly, and then snapped the button with a confident look.

then……

This claw caught nothing.

Yes, not even a doll.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

……

63. Can't catch

In front of the claw machine filled with all kinds of plush toys, several girls gathered around.

Mao Yeyuan lay on the machine, staring closely at the moving metal claws inside, her eyes gradually widened: "I caught it!"

"Come here, come here—"

"Just a little bit!"

Then it was at such a near place that the claws loosened.

"Grass!" Wan Qing was a little annoyed, this is the two yuan game coin she bought herself after the previous failure.

Ten game coins have been spent now, but none of them have been caught.

Just like when playing Pokémon, every time the Poké Ball is thrown, it will shake for a while, and then it will be bounced away at the last point.

That feeling is worse than throwing it out and being bounced off.

It's equally addictive.

"Damn it, it's really dark..." Wan Qing knew that it wasn't a matter of luck, but a problem of setting. The merchant can freely set how many times the claws can be caught before it can be caught. Generally speaking, it will be relatively balanced, so that people will not be able to catch it anyway. less than.

But it does not rule out that there is a particularly greedy boss...

Don't underestimate one dollar, you can already buy a plush toy of about the same size at a street stall for this price. Although the quality may be slightly worse, it is not much worse.

However, at this point, it is no longer a question of whether it is cost-effective, but a question of obsession.

No matter what, I want to catch one, otherwise I feel that I am at a big loss.

Although in reality you may lose more.

"Gudong."

The game currency was thrown in again and again, and the girls around here were all watching it engrossed. Once they were really close to catching it, but they still fell off.

If only the stuffed animal had been a bit bouncy, it could even have bounced into the hole...

The game currency exchanged for two yuan was finally spent.

Wan Qing restrained her desire to exchange some more game coins, and sighed.

Although she felt that she should be able to catch it a few more times.

Otherwise, it would be a bit reconciled to have to give it to others after so many coins have been deposited in front of it.

This slippery plush toy is like her own destiny, she can't grasp it no matter what, every time she wants to change, she can only deflect it in some direction at most, and can't make everything go according to her own ideas develop.

She felt depressed for no reason.

"Oh, it's boring." She scratched her hair, took off the hair tie tied in the ponytail, and sat on the sofa unsteadily, looking hopeless.

Shen Huijuan patted Mao Yeyuan's shoulder lightly, and the other girls also gathered together. They whispered something while biting their ears, and then nodded vigorously in unison.

Wan Qing rested her cheeks and looked at the old man who was shooting basketballs. He looked very energetic, picking up basketballs one after another and throwing them into the basket continuously. The score on the digital instrument was getting higher and higher.

When the time is over, a pile of game coins will be spit out from the inside at once.

The game currency in the video game city can be exchanged back to RMB, but the price is relatively lower.

For example, if you buy it, it costs ten coins for one yuan, and if you exchange it back, it will cost you twelve coins and one yuan.

Of course, it can also be exchanged for prizes. If it is something you like, this will be relatively more cost-effective.

Great people, one game currency can play here for a day.

For example, first play the game that can spit out coins, and then play other games after earning enough, and then earn more...

Wan Qing also wanted to try it, but unfortunately, it never really came true.

The luckiest time was to use the coin pusher to earn more than fifty coins.

When I continued to play later, I lost everything back...

The noisy video game city is full of guests who come to play games.

Men, women, young and old, all kinds.

The colorful neon lights flicker, making this place as gorgeous as a future city in a science fiction novel.

In [-], all kinds of game rooms, game halls, and game cities were everywhere.

The entire industry is very lively, but after entering the 21st century, it has gradually been replaced by Internet cafes.

In Wan Qing's impression, Internet cafes seem to be a new thing, but soon, this new thing also gets old and is replaced by the newer, so-called 'Internet cafes'.

Internet cafes are so new that they cannot be newer, and there is no other similar product that can replace them.

But in just a few years, they were quickly eliminated by society and became obsolete products.

Everything is too fast.

Just like the Internet cafe that was still a new product in my impression, Wan Qing also felt that she had always been young, until one day she suddenly realized that she was already old and had entered middle age.

Many childhood dreams have not been fulfilled, and the rhetoric of the past has been forgotten.

The whole person has been smoothed by the years, no longer has dreams, only content with the status quo, wanting to live in an ordinary and stable way.

However, it is often the case-

When a person desires to achieve great things, he can only do nothing. When a person is content with mediocrity, he will start to be poor again.

She is lucky.

Her life came again.

As a pretty girl.

Even from the perspective of profit alone, this was more useful than the handsome guy.

But she doesn't seem to be able to change too many things.

And after the initial desperate effort, it seems to continue to be content with the status quo.

It is always written in many novels that an ordinary person who is not so diligent will start to work hard and work hard when he goes back to the past, as if he has been injected with chicken blood, with unlimited motivation.

It's like being a different person from my past self, using that infinite energy to rewrite my life, and using my strong willpower to control my desires.

Wan Qing thought it was pure nonsense.

What kind of person should be or what kind of person.

Especially the older ones before time travel.

Those years of habits are hard to change, and it is hard to change the fixed thinking.

Even if you are willing to work hard at the beginning, but when you feel that the time is still long and the progress is not so fast, you will start to slack off again.

——It doesn’t matter how perfect the plan is.

Because after all, it is up to people to execute.

Wan Qing feels that she is a person who easily gets lost.

Nor is there any particularly firm conviction or belief.

It's completely different from the current Ye Chen who is unshakable no matter what.

"It's not the same fucking person at all... Ha." She tilted her head to look at Ye Chen who was concentrating on tapping the buttons in front of the game console, and chuckled.

"Sunshine~!"

"Sunny evening!"

"Sunshine at night——"

Several girls surrounded her again at some point, and the tallest one, Mao Yeyuan, shook the white plush toy in her hand—it looked like a snowman: "We caught it!"

"How much did you spend?" she asked with drooping eyelids.

"A total of more than 30 game coins were spent."

"Black, it's really black."

"You really want this, don't you? We caught it together, and everyone decided to give it to you!" Mao Yeyuan, who looked cheerful at the moment, stuffed the furry toy snowman into her arms, "Don't be so sad La."

"Yes." Shen Huijuan nodded lightly, "The dolls in the claw machine are really hard to grasp."

A group of Yingying and Yanyan girls surrounded him, and they cared so much for him, which made Wan Qing a bit at a loss for what to do.

She put down her right leg resting on her left leg and coughed dryly: "It's not necessary..."

"Don't hold back, everyone can see that you are in a bad mood."

"that is!"

"Are you happier like this? I still have some game currency here." A chubby girl with her face squeezed together, making people feel extra friendly said with a smile, "Let's go play something else together." ?”

"what?"

"Let's go."

Everyone grabbed her two arms in a hurry, dragged her up from the sofa, and walked to another area together.

There are dance mats, drum machines, photo stickers and other things that are popular with girls. Wan Qing saw the girl dancing in hot pants again - she was already sweating.

"Let's still take photoshoots?"

"Hmm! Photo stickers are the best deal!"

"Big head stickers~"

Surrounded by the girls, Wan Qing was pushed into the box-like photo booth.

photo stickers.

To tell you the truth, Wan Qing has never had a photoshoot in her life.

Yes, not once.

Whether it is the most popular time, or has been out of date.

She didn't even go in the 'small box' for ID photos.

Standing in front of this large screen with low pixels, she felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Even in the era of smartphones, the uncle who rarely takes selfies is of course a little afraid of the camera.

Fortunately, the one in this shot is not the familiar fat, unshaven, and greasy uncle after all.
