C1 Disappeared

"Why should I have to find a way out of my three hundred and sixty trades, when I feel that my talents, shining like gold, must be buried, and that one day they will be discovered?"

The young man who was 1.73 meters tall and thin was standing at the door of his house talking confidently.

"Maybe. But when they found out, you must have turned into a fossil. I don't blame you. It is this era that can't adapt to you."

"Shut up, mother, how can you say that about your son? What do you think a crematorium is?"

"You two are right..."

The couple sang along with each other. They both had dark faces and did their best to bully the young man at the door. It was the young man's fault for not doing his best. His grades were really bad.

How could he be bad? For example, in math, the full score was 150 points. He got 15 points, full score in physics was 110 points, and he got 11 points.

That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that his body condition is not particularly good.

However, Liu Xu was not an ordinary poor student. He was different from other poor students. He was an aspiring young man.

"In 2019, when the New Year Festival comes, I need freedom. Financial freedom, personal freedom, all kinds of freedom. I want to live for myself."

Liu Xu puffed out his chest and spoke intermittently. After all, he was a little weak, but his courage was commendable and rare. Of course, he couldn't help but be splashed with cold water.

"Forget it. Go to the market and buy me two pieces of tofu."

"I am an aspiring young man, and you actually want me to buy you tofu?"

"One piece of runway fee!"

"Okay, Mom. You will definitely see steaming hot tofu in ten minutes."

"Xu, don't come back too early today. Your dad and I have some things to do."

"?? Alright, I understand."

One piece of tofu cost two yuan, so two pieces of tofu were four yuan. Liu Xu's mother gave him five yuan, including the running fee.

After receiving the money, Liu Xu skipped downstairs and went to the market to buy vegetables.

His parents, who were looking at his back, revealed a strange smile.

"Sixteen years of acting as an actor, and today, it has finally come to an end. I really don't want to part with him!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect time to pass so quickly. Ying is still waiting for us. Let's go!"

"She didn't come in the end. I'm afraid this will be the last time they meet."

"This is also her brother, although they..."

Liu Xu, who had received a dollar as a reward, was jumping around excitedly on the street. It didn't matter how much money he had, as long as he was happy. That was what he thought.

What he didn't know was that something shocking was happening in his house.

The market was right below his house. After walking a few steps, he arrived. He handed over five yuan, and Liu Xu got his wish. He carried the tofu and walked home.

In front of him was an old utility pole. It had been there since Liu Xu was young.

Usually, it was inconspicuous, but today, the utility pole caught Liu Xu's attention.

A big red piece of paper suddenly appeared out of thin air on the originally bare telephone pole. It looked particularly eye-catching.

Liu Xu, who was bored, took a closer look.

"Do you want to earn more than ten thousand yuan a month? Do you want to be the target of envy in other people's eyes? Do you want to be a successful person? Come and find us, we don't want education, we don't want work experience, we want people to sign up for graffiti live shows, we want to be trained by our masters, given opportunities by our guilds, becoming famous isn't a dream, it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity..."

The contents of the big red paper were quite attractive. Liu Xu looked at the big red paper, then looked down at himself. The corner of his mouth gradually rose, and in the end, he grinned.

"Hahahaha, who are you trying to fool? Do you think I will fall into a trap? I am very smart, just this, heh, little trick!"

A few minutes later, Liu Xu arrived at a place he had never been before. It was a remote corner. Looking at the peeling wall, Liu Xu frowned and hesitated for a moment, but he still walked in.

"Is there anyone here? Is this the interview venue of graffiti live streaming company, Ltd? I'm here to apply for a job. Is there anyone here?"

That's right, it smelled so good. He still came.

However, Liu Xu was not tempted, because he had a grander goal, which was to realize his financial freedom, personal freedom, and all kinds of freedom...

The legendary interview location was actually in a shabby residential area, and it was on the first floor!

Could it be that he wanted to run faster?

I think if they knew that the interviewer was Liu Xu, they wouldn't have to do that because he wouldn't be able to tell that he was cheated.

"Someone is here. Brother, wait for me. I'm going to the toilet!"

It was a simple and honest voice, and it sounded like a fat man.

Sure enough, he was a big fatty. He was about 165 centimeters tall, half a head shorter than Liu Xu!

"Brother, you're here to apply for a job, right? What talent does that have?"

The fat man said to Liu Xu with a smile. His shabby suit was uniform and very formal.

"Talent? Speaking of which, there's nothing written on the red paper. I don't know anything. Do you have a master to teach me?"

Liu Xu explained his situation, while the fatty's eyes dimmed. No one knew what he was thinking.

"How about you give me your name and phone number, and I'll give you the results later. What do you say?"

In fact, after being in the society for a long time, experienced veterans all knew that once they heard these words during an interview, it was usually bad.

But Liu Xu did not understand. That was the first time he was seeking freedom. He was only sixteen years old this year!

After hearing these words, Liu Xu carried the two pieces of tofu and eagerly went home.

After he left, sighs came from the dark room.

"Alas, all of them have left, and there is no one left in the guild. They all went to Lee Mang, and no one else can be blamed. I am not as capable as him, but should I just go back like this? I've been away from home for five years, but I've accomplished nothing. I can't accept it if I don't live up to my name. How about... Sigh... "

It seemed he had made a compromise. However, in the endless darkness, there was still a faint light coming out and changing colors.

"Dad? Mom? Sis? Where did you go?"

Aren't you at home? Where did the three of you go?

Liu Xu looked around the house three times, but he did not see anyone.

"It's really strange. Where did they go?"

Just as Liu Xu was puzzled, a voice came out of nowhere.

"They disappeared. There's no need to look for them."
