Universe Infinite Canteen

"You said this thing can transport me to other universes?"

Malu looked carefully at the white egg in his hand, but he didn't see any difference between it and ordinary eggs.

They are about the same size and weight, and have the same glossy shell, which feels slightly rough to the touch. You can still faintly see the light coming from the other side when placed in the sun.

"Insect eggs cannot take you directly to other universes, it is more like simulating a projection of you there." Lao Wang explained, "Once the time limit is reached, the projection will disappear. If you encounter fatal injuries, you will end early. of this journey.”

"It sounds like logging into a game account, which is quite safe, but what if this thing breaks? Can I still use it?"

"Insect eggs are one of the strongest materials in the multiverse. There is nothing in this universe that can harm them."

"Really?" Malu knocked the egg in his hand on the table. The eggshell dented the moment it hit the table. However, as soon as it left the table, it immediately returned to its original shape and became as full as before.

Malu was amazed when he saw it, while Lao Wang took out a few more things from under his blue jacket.

They were an orange bracelet, a knife about thirty centimeters in length, a medium-sized plastic bag, and a chip.

…………

Malu met Lao Wang on the 42nd day after the graduation ceremony. On that day, he got up from bed early in the morning because he had to attend an interview.

However, when I arrived at the interview location, I found that it was already a mess.

Angry investors and bewildered employees chattered like sparrows on telephone poles.

Some people in the finance room wailed, such as, "Why, why is this happening, where did the money go?!"

Malu stopped an elder sister who was walking out with a monitor under her arm and two large bags of printing paper. The latter looked wary, but she was relieved until Malu explained her purpose.

"The company is gone. The boss suddenly disbanded the work group early this morning. Shortly after that, the phone became unavailable and no one could be contacted at all. Some people said that the bastard had fled the country and took away the remaining money in the account before leaving. .

"The compensation will definitely not be paid, and the two months' salary owed before will probably not be returned, so everyone will have to make do with moving some things.

"Since you're here, don't be polite. Just take whatever you want as transportation expenses. Anyway, all the valuable things have been distributed." The eldest sister said generously.

Unable to resist such kindness, Malu finally chose the tiger piranha in the corner of the pot.

During this period, a middle-aged man who looked like an investor rushed out of the financial room, shouting with red eyes, "Put it down! Put it down!!! This is the company's property! No one is allowed to touch it!!!"

However, it was a good thing that he didn't show up. As soon as he showed up, he was surrounded by angry employees. Some people grabbed him by the collar and asked him to pay back the money on behalf of the boss.

The office soon became lively again.

Malu walked out of the office building holding the pot of tiger orchid with slightly yellowed leaves, planning to take the subway.

While passing by a small park on the way, I saw a group of sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys gathered around, cursing and punching something.

Upon seeing this, Malu stepped forward curiously and found a bald middle-aged man curling up on the ground with his eyes closed.

"What's wrong?"

"He came over while we were playing and wanted to steal Huizi's power bank." A boy over 1.8 meters tall and holding a basketball said fiercely, "We must teach him a lesson."

"Yes, there have been people throwing things at the stadium in the past week, but I have caught him. This guy is too arrogant. He dared to reach out in front of us in broad daylight. He really deserves a beating." Someone agreed, while talking. He also added some extra legs to the man on the ground.

The man didn't fight back, he just kept a weird curled up posture, with his hands folded around his chest, but his face was exposed.

"It feels like it's a misunderstanding. I know this guy. He lives downstairs from me. There's something wrong here." Malu pointed to his head.

"Really? Are you his accomplice?" Yimiba looked at Malu suspiciously.

"Would anyone with a sound mind still wear a jacket in a temperature of 38 degrees?" Malu said while grabbing his shirt for some air.

"Many people in our community know about him. He was originally a programmer and made some money during the best years of the Internet's development, but then his parents died in a car accident.

"After that, he not only lost all the money he made from stock trading, but also owed a lot of debt. His wife ran away with someone, and the child was not his. He couldn't bear such a blow and went crazy. Now he is eight years old. My grandmother has been living together for more than ten years, but her grandmother is old and can't stand him, so he will run out from time to time. "

"So miserable?" Yimiba was shocked when he heard this.

The other teenagers also stopped what they were doing and looked at each other.

Malu changed his hands and hugged the flower pot, "I'm not his accomplice. I work nearby. Mars Technology on the 12th floor of Tower A of Huanyu Building. Have you heard of it?"

The teenagers looked at each other and said, "What a bad luck. Forget it. There is no need to argue with a madman. You guys should go back to playing ball."

After they were gone, Ma Lu said to the man on the ground, "Hey, are you okay?"

The man opened his eyes and shook his head.

"Do you still remember where your home is, or the contact number of your relatives? I will call them for you."

"Thank you. My sector was seriously damaged and a lot of data was lost." The man's wording was very strange.

"Okay." Ma Lu was not too surprised when he heard this.

Although he had talked a lot with those gang of teenagers before, he did not lie about one thing, that is, the bald man in front of him was indeed mentally abnormal. If he had not noticed this, Ma Lu would not have interfered in this noisy matter.

"Let's go, let's go to the police station first and see if the police can help you recover your data." Ma Lu followed the other person's words and said.

The man shook his head again, "According to Regulation No. 1 of the Multiverse Travel Manual - travelers need to ensure that their identity is not known to civilizations outside the Grand Alliance. I should terminate this exchange immediately."

"But aren't you in trouble?" Ma Lu said. "If you don't solve it, it may cause even bigger trouble. By then it will be difficult for you not to be noticed."

The man hesitated when he heard the words, and after a moment he uttered two words, "Charge."

"Charge?"

"I need to recharge."

"Oh, are you talking about your mobile phone? No wonder you wanted to steal the power bank earlier. It turned out that the mobile phone was out of power. Do you want to use mine first?"

Malu handed over his mobile phone.

The man grabbed the phone, but returned it after only a few seconds, "Not enough."

"What's not enough?" Ma Lu took the phone and was surprised to find that the phone that had 40% battery left not long ago was now out of power, the screen was dark, and no buttons responded.

"It's really strange. Why did the battery suddenly run out?" Ma Lu checked his cell phone for a while without paying attention and then looked up to find that the man had already walked towards the high-voltage power line tower not far away.

Malu quickly grabbed his jacket and said, "Don't even think about it. Let's do this. I'll take you to a place where you can charge your phone. My phone is also out of battery."

Five minutes later, Malu took the man into a small street cafe, ordered two glasses of the cheapest lemonade, and then asked the waiter for a charging head.

Malu placed the tiger orchid in the center of the dining table. Through the wide leaves of the tiger orchid, he saw three shiny metal round wires coming out from under Lao Wang's blue jacket.

The three metal round wires seemed to be alive. At first, they just secretly stretched out half of their heads, looked around furtively, and after confirming that no one in the cafe was looking this way, they twisted their bodies flexibly. Sliding down the table, I found the opportunity and quickly plugged it into the three-hole socket in the corner.

The next moment, the chandelier on the top of the cafe suddenly began to flicker rapidly, flickering on and off.

The electrical appliances in the store also made sharp alarm sounds, and error messages kept popping up on the LCD screen, like a funny and crazy concert.

This weird scene lasted for about ten seconds, until there was a muffled sound from the power box, and the world returned to silence again.

Happy opening the book~
