Chapter 1
"Shen Chi ...... do you know the Border town?"
"Yes."
A red-haired teenager took off his expensive headphones, his school uniform lazily collapsed on his body, said unconcernedly, "The first in the country in crime rate, the bottom of the economy, a place I would never go in my life."
At the time, that's what he thought.
*
In September, with the sun baking the tar-colored ground, the red-haired teenager dragged his suitcase to the front of the cramped bungalow.
The walls of the bungalow were peeling like tree bark, moss covered the outer bricks, only vaguely visible as white walls and gray bricks.
His eyes fell on the tiny cracks in the wall, then turned to the rusty red security door, the thought of his hand knocking on the door-
The teenager then turned around with an expressionless face.
He never thought he would come from the bustling capital, three days and three nights by train to the border town.
He looked across the street, the road was potholed, half repaired and rotten, vegetable vendors occupied the ramp, and there was only one internet cafe.
He did not hesitate to go into the Internet cafe.
It was noon, and the Internet cafe staff was sitting around the front counter eating while talking lamentably.
"Have you seen the news, the child of our province's richest Shen family is actually the wrong one, the biological parents are the ones selling breakfast next to the third high school, just happened to give birth in the same hospital. By mistake, the nurse took the wrong one.""
"You're talking about the Ji family, right? I've seen that child raised by the Ji family, not only does he have good grades from childhood, but he is also particularly filial, helping parents sell breakfast."
"The child raised by the Shen family seems to be called Shen Chi? I heard that he is addicted to games, but also has a poor temper. His parents were heartbroken. Only then did they decide for a DNA test to be done. How can I say that the real can't be fake, and the fake can't be real."
They were discussing vigorously until a cold voice interrupted the conversation: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as an idiot."
The front desk, which had just been enthusiastic, was suddenly quiet, and could not help but look at each other, wondering what had been said wrong.
The teenager did not even look at the receptionist, coldly said: "One computer."
He was born good-looking, his eyebrows were strong and bold,his red hair made his skin look exceptionally fair, standing there he will be able to attract attention. His neat way of dressing and the surrounding environment filled with the smell of choking smoke is simply incompatible.
The cashier looked stunned for a while before coming back to his senses and asked cautiously, "What games do you play? We have all the popular games here, like League of Legends–"
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the teenager: "Jedi survival."1
After hearing the words, she was dazed. Jedi survival is an old game, which can't be said to be unpopular, but it has passed the peak of the game, and few guests will play it, and there are fewer computers who had the software installed.
"No?" The teenager wrinkled his good-looking eyebrows.
"Yes, please show your ID card." She immediately tapped on the computer.
