I'm just an internet cafe owner

Secretly thinking about it, Liu Yuan felt a little smug.

Looking at the hundred cameras of various styles, Liu Yuan thought carefully and realized that giving them only to March 7th didn't seem quite right. After all, among so many employees, March 7th was the first staff member to actually receive a gift.

That won't do. First place has to be Kisaragi. Then Jibril, though she's always courting death, she's still got some credit for her hard work. Give her a reward to appease her, and then let everyone choose what they like.

Before giving it as a gift, Liu Yuan looked at several pink cameras and hesitated for a long time before choosing the pinkest one. It had a pink casing, pink flowers, and even the lens was pink. Although the lens was pink, the photos and videos taken with the camera's amazing technology were completely unaffected.

"As expected! This is what a real man should choose!"

Liu Yuan picked up the pink camera and hung it around his neck. At that moment, Jibril, who had lost the team battle, came to the front desk to get an iced cola while waiting to be revived. She then saw Liu Yuan looking at her with the pink camera.

"hiss!!!!"

The sudden gasp made all the employees who were playing games instinctively turn their heads to look over. When they saw Liu Yuan's extremely pink camera lens, they all gasped in surprise.

Liu Yuan: "This room is small. If you keep sucking in the cold air like this, the room will get warmer."

Everyone was silent for a moment when Liu Yuan's preferences were mentioned, but then they understood. After all, pink-haired girls made up the majority of the staff in the internet cafe, and the rest were probably chosen to avoid repetition of cute features or because of special requests.

Then look at Kisara, with her perfectly pink hair, even her pupils are pink. It's no wonder her boss likes a pink camera.

But how to put it? While we can understand it, seeing this scene gave everyone a strange feeling.

Liu Yuan waved his hand: "Come on! Take any of the hundred cameras that Hughie makes. If anyone likes a particular model, I'll have Hughie make another one. Your boss is incredibly kind!"

Kisara leaned closer and pinched the soft flesh on Liu Yuan's waist: "Hehe~ I see you're giving out benefits to the new employees. You're too embarrassed to give them out directly, so how about one for each person?"

"What?! How did you know?"

"Just a guess!"

"Let go! Let go! People will die!"

Liu Yuan yelled and screamed, while Mu Geng pretended to be angry. The others? They were happily picking out gifts. How to put it? When they first became employees, Liu Yuan seemed incredibly authoritative to them, but after getting to know him better, they all understood what kind of person he was.

In private, he would never get angry if they joked and played around, and Jibril would even be happy to hear him sneak up on her while she was sleeping. Back then, Liu Yuan had locked the door to prevent his sleep from being disturbed, but Jibril still managed to sneak in.

That is to say, Liu Yuan, who absorbed the child, now has an employee room, so Jibril can no longer sneak in. Otherwise, Jibril hanging from the ceiling would be a beautiful sight every morning before the opening.

But in the process, March 7th, who was initially a little uncomfortable, gradually relaxed after other employees complained.

Connecting countless worlds, with each staff member representing a different world, this situation still made March 7 a little nervous. Especially with Liu Yuan in her life, she understood from just a conversation that he was someone she couldn't afford to offend, making her subconsciously hesitant to fully reveal herself in front of him.

But after Liu Yuan was disciplined by Mu Geng and criticized by everyone, she realized that her boss actually seemed quite ordinary. As for liking...

Pink? She didn't see anything wrong with it.

After searching for a long time, March 7th finally settled on a blue camera. She held it in her hand, pointed it at Liu Yuan, and pressed the shutter. Looking at the clear photo, she was overjoyed.

"very nice…"

March 7th touched the camera, a smile on her face. She said she didn't care about the past, but only she knew the fear of having nothing left.

But when she held the camera in her hand, she found that her fear had disappeared. She had met many like-minded people there, and had also found a job with long hours but relatively easy work.

Even if one day she returns to her own world to find her past, she can continue working here. The proportion of time she spends working is really insignificant compared to the world she lives in.

Everyone picked out their favorite styles, but Jibril, a traitor who was always thinking about launching a glamorous rebellion against her boss, unceremoniously chose three.

Since Liu Yuan didn't say how many he could take, he could take advantage of this loophole to get more.

After everyone had made their choices, Alicia suggested, "Hmm~ it seems like we haven't taken a group photo since we started working together? How about we take one together every time a new person joins us starting from March 7th?"

Bronya spoke up directly: "Bronya approves of this proposal."

Tongxi nodded and said, "I think it's feasible."

Although Makise Kurisu didn't say anything, she nodded in agreement with the idea.

So the girls found their own spots; some leaned against the front desk, others sat at the computers. Some even took out mirrors and carefully groomed themselves, since photos are something that will be kept for a long time.

"We'll leave the photoshoot to the boss~ Hmph~ Boss, please don't try to take group photos of us girls~"

With so many people, it's most suitable for Liu Yuan to take photos. After all, he's the boss, and they're just employees.

Liu Yuan looked at the camera in his hand and laughed, "Alright! After all, you're my employees. The future prosperity of the shop depends on your efforts. The harder you work, the more money I'll make."

"Pfft~"

Yuna Takashima couldn't help but smile amidst the crowd. As the first branch manager and the one who received the most assistance from Liu Yuan, she knew what kind of person Liu Yuan was.

Liu Yuan picked up his camera and, after the girls were ready, took a photo from a more formal angle.

The photo shows six branches and one main store, along with fifteen staff members including Kisaragi, all smiling happily. Liu Yuan also smiled.

"The photos will be sent to you via TT. If you want a physical copy, you can just print it out at the front desk."

"Good~"

The girls went to the front desk to print out their photos. Kisara, holding the photos, looked at his beautiful reflection and praised them with satisfaction, "Not bad! Excellent photography skills. You must have practiced on plenty of girls, right?"

Although pink-haired girls make up the majority of the photos, none of them are overshadowed by the others. Some are petite and cute, some are youthful and beautiful, and some are lively and playful.

One photo can be said to have brought everyone to life.

Yuna Takashima: "The boss took such great photos!"

Bronya: "Agreed."

As for the newlyweds, March 7th looked at her photos and her playful smile made her start to enjoy taking pictures.

"I want to record beautiful things and keep them for myself and others to remember in the future. I think I've... fallen in love with photography~"

She raised her camera and pointed it at herself: "Cheese!"

On March 7th, a bright smile spread across her face as she pressed the shutter. When she saw her adorable self in the camera again, she hugged the camera.

Loneliness, solitude, and fear gradually dissipated, just as the ice that had sealed her heart gradually melted away. As Alicia's internet cafe manager, Alicia personally guided her to integrate into the establishment.

This unique happiness of hers remained undisturbed, while Liu Yuan, having decided he was no longer useful, retreated to a corner with Mu Geng. There, he sat on a chair and began to eat watermelon. While others ate slices, he habitually grabbed a spoon and ate half of it.

What? You're asking about the other half? Naturally, it's in Mu Geng's hands. Mu Geng, also influenced by Liu Yuan, is currently munching on a melon.

Chapter 609 New Guest, Shen Yong?

Half an hour before the internet cafe opens, at the newest branch number six, March 7, as a newcomer to the Alicia branch, was temporarily brought to branch number six for an internship because there wouldn't be many new customers at branch number four for the time being.

Once the newcomer has mastered enough customer-attracting skills, she will be transferred to Alicia's side.

As a newcomer, there were many things that March 7th didn't understand. With Liu Yuan guiding her, she basically knew what to do before the official opening.

"Hey? Young lady, are you one of your newly recruited employees, boss?"

The moment Sun Wukong entered the room, he saw March 7th. Out of curiosity, he came over and greeted him.

Liu Yuan waved his hand: "He is a newly recruited network administrator. He is temporarily interning at this store and will work at another store later."

"I see, young lady. Greetings, young lady. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I'll do my best to help. Now I'm going to play some games~"

What brings Sun Wukong the most joy? It's every year.

A gaming experience. Whether it's playing Ghost Valley Eight Desolations, discussing philosophy with others in the game, or looking to the future and traveling the universe, there's so much fun to be had.

Of course, he was also happy in his own world. As time went by, Sun Wukong felt that farming was really good; he liked farming. Sure enough, the people in the internet cafe were right: farming is the slowest to yield results in all games, but it brings an exceptionally high sense of accomplishment.

Sun Wukong boarded the plane, and Liu Yuan continued his explanation: "In some worlds, the way of speaking is different because of the different eras. If you hear something that sounds off, just smile, because those who are truly careless with their words will be warned or even prevented from entering."

"I see…"

March 7th breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at Sun Wukong's appearance, she still felt a little curious. Could it be that all the customers in this shop are like this?

Sensing March's curiosity, Yakumo Ran retorted, "March, you have no idea, on my very first day of work, Da Sheng came to the internet cafe. He really scared me to death, but after seeing this, I only have admiration for Da Sheng!"

"Worship? What?"

Yakumo Ran pulled out a Journey to the West novel: "This is it! Take it and read it."

"May I?"

"Of course! Oh, and I'll give you a copy of the animation DVD too."

With Yakumo Ran leading the way, March Seven learned about the novel and gradually opened up.

Yang Jian also entered the internet cafe after Sun Wukong, but Yang Jian looked like an ordinary person and did not arouse the curiosity of March 7 like Sun Wukong did.

While Yakumo Ran and Mitsuki Shichi were doing their research, the door to the internet cafe was pushed open.

"here it is?"

The man who walked in was a black-haired man wearing a shirt and trousers. His name was Ryuguuin Seiya. He was a hero before, but now he is an ordinary person. He may become a hero in the future.

As he entered the internet cafe, he looked around the room intently. A voice inside him told him to stay, for only by staying could he erase his regrets.

"Excuse me, where is this place?"

As Ryuguuin Seiya asked the question, Mitsuki Shichi, a new employee, tried to step forward and extend an invitation.

"Hello~ My name is March 7th. Um~ This is the Four-Dimensional Space Internet Cafe. You can get all sorts of things by spending money here. The power to save your loved ones, the knowledge to change the world, and the joy to satisfy your spirit. Sir/Madam, would you be interested in staying and giving it a try?"

March 7th's first job went very smoothly. Because of Ryuguuin Seiya's peculiar personality, he neither rashly agreed to anything nor left abruptly in the unfamiliar environment. While listening to March 7th's description, he also observed the only two guests inside.

Sun Wukong, a monkey covered in fur. But the moment he saw this monkey, he sensed its extraordinary nature. It was as if, upon seeing him, there was nothing in the world to fear, because Brother Monkey was there.

The other Yang Jian was imposing and handsome, his appearance so striking that it was hard not to take a second look. His righteous aura and the majesty of the newly appointed God of Justice instilled a strong sense of security in the observer.

With the help of March 7th's introduction, he was quite willing to believe that this store had such magical abilities.

"I see? Will the game here become unplayable?"

March 7th didn't know how to answer this, so Yakumo Ran smiled and added, "No, you can quit at any time during the game."

"Then let's try it out for an hour."

Ryuguin Seiya glanced at the internet access prices. They were a bit expensive, and going for a whole day at once was clearly not a good idea. He decided to try it out for an hour first.

However, when he made the payment, he noticed a peculiar detail: he was very rich, extremely rich. This was very strange; he remembered that all his assets combined didn't even amount to more than one percent of that.

Sensing Ryuguin Seiya's confusion, Liu Yuan explained, "This shop uses all the property you own. Even if this property is not in your world for the time being, it can still be used normally."

"Is that so? I have property in another world?"

For some reason, when Ryuguuin Seiya said those words, he felt a discomfort in his chest, a feeling as if he had lost something, which was painful.

"Can I become stronger here?"

Liu Yuan nodded: "Okay, I'll make you powerful enough to rewrite your future. However..."

"What price do I need to pay?"
