Math professor returns to routine

Chapter 452 Game Opening

Ten p.m.

Lu You and other three met in front of the entrance of the water park.

Since everyone had just taken a shower, their hair was still semi-wet.

"Are you having fun?" Lu You asked with a smile.

Deng Rui nodded and replied with a smile: "It's my first time to experience a water park in my life. It feels great. Especially the wave-making area, it's so exciting."

"Indeed, Logan and I went to play as well. But the waves only come every ten minutes, so the wait is a bit long."

Wang Linghua glanced at Deng Rui and asked, "What's the next show? Are we going to watch the New Year's Eve concert or do something else?"

Tang Wan caught Wang Linghua's little movement, her eyes suddenly lit up, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

Wow, interesting!

Lu You took out his phone and checked the time, then replied, "Let's go to the box to find Li Yu and Xu Nian first, and we'll talk about the rest later."

The four of them took the elevator and went straight up to the fifth floor.

The elevator door opened and the scene came into view.

The layout of the fifth floor is the same as that of the hotel.

A carpeted corridor with private rooms marked with house numbers on both sides.

Just as Lu You was about to walk out of the elevator, Tang Wan calmly pulled his wrist and gave him a look.

Lu You understood what he meant, and stepped aside to let Deng Rui and Wang Linghua go first, while he and Tang Wan followed behind.

After the two walked a distance, Lu You said, "What's the matter? Tell me."

Tang Wan pointed at Wang Linghua and whispered, "They are in trouble."

"you mean?"

Tang Wan didn't say anything. She clenched her fists, put them together, raised her thumbs, and then slowly put them together.

Lu You understood instantly and immediately looked at the two people in front of him.

However, Deng Rui and Wang Linghua just walked forward quietly, one in front and one behind, separated from each other by a short distance. The atmosphere was very peaceful, without any other weird things.

"No, where did you find out? Why can't I see it at all?"

"When we were gathering on the first floor just now, I saw Linghua secretly looking at Deng Rui with my own eyes."

Lu You looked at it carefully again, but still found nothing unusual.

"Did you read it wrong?"

"Impossible! I have 5.0 vision in both eyes, there is no way I am wrong!" Tang Wan said firmly.

"Even if Wang Linghua secretly watched Lao Deng, she couldn't be 100% sure that they had a special relationship. It's possible that Lao Deng did something that made Wang Linghua keep an eye on him."

If Wang Linghua heard these words, she would definitely doubt whether Lu You had the ability to read minds. This was not different from what she thought, but it was exactly the same.

Tang Wan looked straight at Lu You, obviously not agreeing with what he said.

Lu You went on to explain: "It's not that Lao Deng and Wang Linghua are not a good match, it's mainly because they don't have that atmosphere. Try to imagine the scene of you walking next to me and walking next to Li Yu."

Tang Wan rested her hand on her chin and constructed the scene in her mind according to what Lu You said.

When walking next to Lu You, she would definitely stick close to him, hold hands with him, act coquettishly with him, and say a lot of things to him.

When walking next to Li Yu, stay away from him first, pretend he doesn't exist, and do your own thing.

Comparing the two, Tang Wan immediately understood.

"I see. What you mean is that Linghua and Deng Rui have no ambiguity."

"That's right. Generally speaking, it's not difficult to hide small emotions. For example, if I'm dissatisfied with you because of something, I can hide it in my heart without letting you know, and still greet you with a smile every day."

"Wait!" Tang Wan raised her hand to interrupt Lu You's words, and looked at him with a bit more ferocity in her eyes, "I am devoted to you on weekdays, and I always take care of you and throw myself into your arms. I let you do whatever you want without any resistance, and you are still dissatisfied with me?"

Lu You sighed and said helplessly: "I'm just giving an example, you don't have to react so strongly."

"Why do you have to use me as an example? You must be pointing fingers at someone else! Tell me, have you had a problem with me for a long time?"

Lu You pinched Tang Wan's face and said expressionlessly, "Stop acting and listen to what I have to say, okay?"

"Oh." Tang Wan's expression changed at the speed of light, as if the aggressive girl before had never existed.

Lu You let go of Tang Wan's face, pinched her nose again, and continued: "It's easy to hide small emotions, but when the emotions are strong to a certain extent, they will inevitably leak out. It's like a pressure cooker. When the internal air pressure exceeds the threshold, the pressure relief valve will spray out.

Strong human emotions can cause the nerves to produce a large number of electrical signals, which in turn stimulate the glands to release hormones in excess. Then, under the action of hormones, the human body will definitely have corresponding external expressions, such as laughter or crying.

Liking someone is also a strong emotion. When you are next to someone you like, your body will involuntarily move closer to her, and your eyes will subconsciously follow her figure, just like the north and south poles of a magnet, spontaneously attracting each other.

In order to make the explanation more understandable, Lu You demonstrated it himself and reached out to hug Tang Wan.

Fragrant and soft, a first-class experience.

"You see, when I was with you, I always wanted to be close to you and wished we would never be apart."

The love words were very touching, but Tang Wan had heard them so many times that her ears had become resistant to them.

"Wrong, every time I study at home you always ask me to crawl."

Lu You was silent for a while, then let go of Tang Wan with both hands and said nonchalantly, "In short, I don't see Lao Deng and the others having any intention of getting close to each other, and the atmosphere between the two of them is as bland as boiled water. You say they have a special relationship, but I don't agree."

"Well, what you said does make sense." Tang Wan accepted Lu You's statement and said regretfully, "What a pity. I was thinking that if Linghua and Deng Rui really got together, when we go back to Chunhua to visit our teacher during the winter vacation, the three couples of me, Nian Nian, and Linghua will jump into each other's faces. That scene will definitely be very interesting."

"Do you want to go back to Chunhua during the winter break?"

Tang Wan nodded and said, "The student union assigned me a task to go back to Chunhua to promote the school."

"Do you need my help?"

Tang Wan put on an adorable expression and said, "Can you bear to let me sit in the booth alone?"

Lu You smiled silently. Although he knew that Tang Wan was pretending to be pitiful, there was nothing he could do. He just fell for it.

"How to sign up?"

"Hehe!" Tang Wan put on a bright smile again and said, "No need to sign up. I knew you would definitely come, so I reserved a spot for you."

"Good fellow, you are still calculating!"

"What do you mean by scheming or not? That's really rude! You should say, I know your strengths and weaknesses, and you know my depth."

"Steamed shrimp heads!"

At this time, Deng Rui found the room according to the number. When he turned around, he found Lu You and the other person standing more than ten meters away, talking and laughing.

"What are you two talking about? Come here!"

"Coming!" Lu You replied, pulling Tang Wan towards Deng Rui.

……

The four people entered the room and were greeted by Li Yu's complaints.

"You guys are so slow, I'm almost going moldy waiting!"

"I can't help it. I have to take a shower after coming out of the swimming pool, so it's naturally a bit slow." Lu You explained while looking around.

The room has ample space, estimated to be between 30 and 40 square meters, and the overall decoration is in warm colors.

The floor is covered with a layer of soft tatami, where you can lie down and sleep directly. There is also a large-screen TV hanging on the wall, playing Mango TV's New Year's Eve concert.

Everyone sat on the ground in a circle.

"What is the configuration of the Internet cafe downstairs?" Lu You asked.

"The normal area has 13400 with 4060, and the VIP area has 13700K with 4080." Li Yu replied truthfully.

"Wow, the configuration is quite high!" In Lu You's impression, it was already very good for an Internet cafe to have a medium configuration of the last era. "Which area are you playing in?"

"VIP area."

"What are you playing?"

"Yu-Gi-Oh Master Duel."

"No, you two are already face to face, so why don't you use a real card duel?"

Li Yu spread his hands and said helplessly: "I want to, but I don't have any cards with me, so I can only play online. Besides, there are time reminders online, and I always forget to activate the effects when playing with real cards."

"It sounds good, but in reality, you can't play without timing. You only know how to use formulas when playing decks, and you get confused when you are intercepted. You have no understanding of your own at all. If you play with me with real cards, you can't win once in ten games!"

Xu Nian's words clearly hit Li Yu's sore spot. He immediately said angrily, "Stop slandering me! I'm only letting you go because you're a novice!"

"Really? Then can you explain why you lost ten games against me Shika last week?"

"My hand is stuck! If it wasn't stuck, I would definitely beat you!" Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Li Yu was being stubborn.

"You've got ten cards in a row, right? Why don't you draw five pieces of corpses in the first round to kill me instantly?" Xu Nian said sarcastically.

Li Yu's temperature was rising at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Deng Rui quickly interrupted to smooth things over.

"Say, are we going to watch TV or find something else to do?"

After saying that, Deng Rui gave Li Yu a knowing look.

Li Yu was so moved that she almost dropped her pearls.

Sure enough, women are here to cause trouble! Only brothers are the most reliable!

Lu You was organizing a New Year's Eve party, so naturally he would not make such a stupid decision as letting everyone watch TV together.

"Li Yu, have you brought the things?"

Li Yu came back to his senses and nodded, "I brought it. It's in my schoolbag."

"Well, take it out."

Li Yu hugged the schoolbag beside him, unzipped it, and took out four items from it.

A book with a fancy cover and three rectangular boxes.

"There are three choices. One is group play, two is Werewolf, and three is flying chess. Which one do you want to play?"

"I have a question." Deng Rui raised his right hand and asked, "What does a running group do?"

"Roleplay, the full name of which is tabletop role-playing game, players create a character based on the story background and personal preferences, then put on the character's clothes, enter the set world, and perform a story of your own."

After listening to Li Yu's explanation, Deng Rui was still confused.

Lu You then added: "You can think of it as an adult version of playing house."

Deng Rui suddenly realized, "Isn't it just acting? I can do this."

Lu You shook his head and replied, "It can't be completely equated. Acting has fixed characters and scripts, but running a group doesn't, so there is more freedom."

"So, have you thought about what to have fun with?" Li Yu's eyes swept over everyone present.

Xu Nian has been with Li Yu for a long time, and has run several group games with other people, so he has a certain understanding of the process.

She was the first to speak: "The group play will definitely be passed because there is not enough time. It's already past ten o'clock. After we understand the background of the story and shape the characters, it will probably not officially start until eleven o'clock. During this time, we will chat and do a few more things. I'm afraid it won't be over until three or four in the morning."

Lu You then said, "Werewolf is not an option either, there are too few people. There are six of us in total, excluding the storyteller, there are only five left. If there is only one wolf among the five, it will be too difficult for the werewolf team to win. If there are two wolves, all the good guys will be killed in two nights."

"Is that so? Then we can only play flying chess."

Although Li Yu expected this result, he still felt disappointed.

There is no other reason. Whether it is role-playing or Werewolf, they are much more interesting than flying chess.

The former is highly autonomous and random, and the bigger the imagination, the more fun it is. The latter focuses on cheating and deceiving, especially when the wolf makes the good guys fool around, the sense of accomplishment is maximized.

"But flying chess is not a four-player game? How can six people play it?" Deng Rui asked.

"Simple!" Lu You put his arm around Tang Wan's waist and replied, "Couples form groups of two, and singles fight on their own. Isn't that enough?"

Deng Rui and Wang Linghua clenched their fists at the same time.

I really want to hit someone!

Soon, a huge flying chess carpet was spread out on the tatami, and six people sat at the four corners.

"Playing flying chess alone is too boring, how about adding some village rules?" Li Yu suggested.

The other five people looked at each other, and seeing that no one objected, Lu You said, "What do you think?"

Li Yu grinned and said, "I won't do anything fancy. I'll just add an extra punishment mechanism. Whoever throws a six can select one person from the remaining three parties to receive the punishment, and the content of the punishment is determined by the person who threw the six.

It should be stated in advance that the punishment should not be too outrageous, should not be beyond human power, and should not touch the bottom line of the punished person. If the punished person finds the punishment unacceptable, he has the right to refuse. Any other questions? "

"No more." Everyone replied in unison.

"Okay, let the game begin." (End of this chapter)
