I found a cell phone from ten years ago.

Chapter 16: Encounter at Internet Cafe after Military Training

Chapter 16: Encounter at Internet Cafe after Military Training
Since signing the A-sign for "Mystery", the performance has entered a period of rapid growth, with two to three hundred new collections added every day.

On Monday the 13th, when a new week began and the list was updated, he directly topped the list of newcomer potential.

The new book list of contracted writers also made it into the top three.

But within a week, the total collection exceeded 3000.

On Friday night, the 17th, when Li Xu went to the Internet cafe to write, he found a new message notification in the writer's background.

“您的作品《诡秘之主》将在2010-9-19 14:00:00(Sunday)时间获得男生网首页热门推荐……”

The first trial recommendation of "Mysterious" is finally here.

At this time, Li Xu and his team's half-month military training was coming to an end.

The 20th was the last day of military training. In the morning, a grand performance was held on the school’s playground.

After the performance, the military training was officially declared over.

As soon as they returned to the dormitory, Shen Qiang, Xu Haoyang and others took off their military training uniforms.

"It's finally over. I finally don't have to wear this outfit anymore."

The half-month military training was long and boring, and these boys all felt relieved.

"Brother Xu, what are you doing? Going to the Internet cafe again." Noticing that Li Xu had changed his clothes and was about to go out, Xu Haoyang quickly stopped him.

"Yes, let's go to the Internet cafe." Li Xu said.

"Wait a moment, I'll go with you." Xu Haoyang said as he changed his clothes.

"Count me in, I'll go too." Shen Qiang said.

"Okay, let's go together." Li Xu did not refuse.

It would definitely be inconvenient to type if I went to the Internet cafe with Xu Haoyang and the others.

However, after more than ten days, he had already saved eighty chapters, which was enough. It would be nice to take a half-day break and relax.

After Xu Haoyang and Shen Qiang changed their clothes, the three of them left the dormitory and left the school together.

Arriving at the Dachengming store and going up to the third floor, Xu Haoyang asked, "Which internet cafe should we go to?"

"Brother Xu, which one do you often go to?"

"A Century of Impressions."

"Then let's go to Centennial Impression."

Today is Sunday, and there are a lot of students surfing the Internet. The five or six hundred computers in the Internet cafe are almost full.

Xu Haoyang and Shen Qiang found two machines next to each other, while Li Xu found a machine not far from them.

After he sat down, he took out the USB shield and plugged it into the chassis, but suddenly found that there was already a USB flash drive plugged into the chassis.

Who left the USB drive here and forgot to take it out?
Li Xu pulled out the USB drive and took a look. He found that it was not a USB drive, but a card reader used to read the SD card of the mobile phone.

Of course, it can also be used as a USB flash drive.

He casually placed the card reader on the computer desk, thinking to himself that he would wait a while to see if anyone would come looking for him, then he plugged in the USB key and logged into the ICBC online banking.

7685.67 yuan.

Li Xu looked at the balance in his account and after deducting the principal of 7000, the remaining 685 was the money he had earned from speculating in paper gold these days.

It is not common for gold prices to fluctuate significantly in a short period of time. It may only happen a few times a month when the price of gold fluctuates by more than ten points in just two hours like last time.

In addition, he didn't have much time to watch the market, so he only made less than 700 yuan.

But Li Xu was still quite satisfied. Seven hundred yuan was enough for his food expenses for one and a half months, and it only took less than ten days, six days to be exact.

Because two Saturdays and Sundays must be excluded, gold is not open on weekends.

Li Xu closed the online banking, pulled out the U-shield again, then logged into the starting point and took a look at the data of "Mysterious".

It has received over 58000 hits, over 6200 recommendations, and over 3900 collections.

Since being recommended, the performance of "Mysterious" has been getting better and better, with about 8000 to collections added every day. After being recommended this week, the collection should exceed .

Li Xu felt someone patting his back. He turned around and saw that it was Xu Haoyang who had come behind him at some point.

"Why are you coming to my place if you're not playing on your computer?"

"I came over to see what you were doing." Xu Haoyang said with a smile, and as he spoke, he looked at the computer screen.

"Lord of Mysteries? Are you reading a novel?"

"Hmm." Li Xu hummed without comment.

"Brother Xu, are you hungry? Why don't we go downstairs and eat something?" Xu Haoyang said.

It was past midnight when the performance ended, and the three of them had skipped lunch and headed straight to the internet cafe. "You two go ahead, and when you come back, bring me a pork loin pancake and a cup of soy milk," Li Xu said, shaking his head.

"If you don't go, then the two of us will go."

After Xu Haoyang left, Li Xu took out the USB flash drive, plugged it into the computer case, and began to modify the saved draft.

However, just as he revised a chapter, he heard a clear female voice next to him:

"Um, hello!

Li Xu then noticed that there was a little girl next to him. She was about 162cm tall, wearing a light blue T-shirt and denim shorts, with fluffy and slightly messy bangs. She looked very cute.

"Is there a problem?"

The girl pointed to the card reader on the computer desk and said with a slightly flattering smile: "That card reader is mine."

Li Xu glanced at her and picked up the card reader. "Is this yours?"

The girl nodded quickly and said, "I forgot to remove it when I left. There's a 512MB memory card inside. If you don't believe me, you can plug it into your computer and see."

"Okay, take it then. Don't forget it next time."

Li Xu smiled and handed the memory card to the other party.

"Thank you, I thought it was definitely lost." The girl took the card reader and said with a grateful smile.

"It's okay." Li Xu said nonchalantly, then turned around and continued to revise the manuscript.

After a while, he suddenly felt that someone was watching him, so he turned his head sharply and his head bumped into someone.

"Ah!" The girl rubbed her forehead in pain.

"Your head is so hard!"

"You haven't left yet?" Li Xu looked at the girl who had come back in front of him in surprise.

"I went to buy you a bottle of water." The girl said, handing over the iced tea in her hand.

"Thank you!" Li Xu hesitated for a moment, but still reached out to take it and put it aside.

"You're welcome. I should be the one thanking you." The girl said with a smile. When she smiled, her eyes curved and a row of white teeth were exposed, making her look particularly lively.

There's also a bit of a... silly feeling.

"My name is Liu Xin, and I'm from the University of Finance and Economics next door. What about you?" the girl introduced herself.

"Li Xu, from the Elite Academy across the street."

Liu Xin curiously glanced at the computer screen and asked, "Are you writing a novel?"

Li Xu nodded, "Yes."

"Then you are quite amazing." Liu Xin praised with a smile.

"Then I'm leaving. Goodbye."

Seeing Liu Xin walking away, Li Xu retracted his gaze and said to Xu Haoyang and Shen Qiang who were standing not far away: "You two are back."

Only then did Xu Haoyang and Shen Qiang come over.

"Brother Xu, here are your pork tenderloin pancakes and soy milk." Xu Haoyang placed the pork tenderloin pancakes and soy milk in his hands on the computer desk.

"Who is the girl who just talked to you?" Shen Qiang asked with a gossipy smile.

"The person from the University of Finance and Economics next door left something here, and I returned it to her." Li Xu explained simply.

"We saw you two chatting and laughing, and we thought you two knew each other."

As Xu Haoyang spoke, his eyes fell on the document on the computer screen.

"Brother Xu, what are you doing? Is this a novel?"

"You come to the Internet cafe every day just to write novels?" he turned around and asked.

Li Xu nodded and said, "Just keep it to yourself. Don't tell anyone else for now."

"Don't worry, we will definitely not tell anyone." Xu Haoyang promised.

"Yes, don't worry." Shen Qiang also said.

Li Xu glanced at them and had no confidence in the promises of these two guys.

It seems that the fact that he wrote novels can no longer be concealed.
