Please believe me, there is no beauty in that, because Lingye's first thought was Sadako and Chu Renmei. Especially Sakura, after she came up from the bottom of the water, she almost screamed when she saw this scene.
Sakura is most afraid of ghosts.
"It must be hard to take care of hair like this, right?"
Alice snorted. She didn't want to talk to the devil who pushed her into the water.
She just exposed her eyes and nose above the water, and everything below her nose was in the water. Because she was lying slightly on her back, her facial features and even her ears were not in the water. She felt like a crocodile.
Then she saw Ling also handed over a can of drink.
Dr. Pepper
"Isn't it hard to buy in Tokyo? I see the nearest store is in Shizuoka."
"Don't think you can buy me off with a can of drink."
Although it was indeed God's drink, Alice firmly believed that it was the source of power that enabled God to create the world in seven days, but she would not be so cheap as to be dismissed by a can of drink.
"So, I asked someone to take over the sales outlets of Dr. Pepper in Tokyo. You can buy it from vending machines on the streets of Tokyo in the future."
Alice was silent for a while.
How could this person be like this?
"Okay, I understand. Sometimes gods disguise themselves as demons. This is a test for the world."
Tomoyo chuckled. Alice looked straight ahead and pretended not to hear.
"But if you really try it, Dr. Pepper is actually pretty good."
Ling also opened a can of cherry-flavored carbonated drink, which was the oldest carbonated drink in human history from the last century.
Alice was a little proud of the recognition. But just as her mouth curled up 15 degrees, she immediately remembered her cold and neet personality and returned to her expressionless look.
"And then? They called me here for something important. I had to endure the pain of being exposed to the outside world for a long time. Was it just for this?"
For Alice, leaving her 17 square meter space was like a turtle shedding its shell; it was unbearable.
Early this morning, she was kidnapped and brought here.
Anyone who is dragged out of the house and put in a car while in their pajamas in bed (which she had been doing all day) can be considered kidnapping.
This is true even if we are classmates.
“Isn’t it important to come play in the pool with everyone?”
Alice glared at her with a look that said, "Are you kidding? I'll hit you!" Although Ling didn't feel threatened at all, she still surrendered.
"Actually, the program you gave me the day before yesterday has been optimized and can be used on the platform."
Ling was also talking about the functions of video uploading and live broadcasting.
After several months of development by Alice, online video was finally implemented on the website.
It's a qualitative leap.
The forum on the phone was just a trial run, and the entire website didn't even have a name. Now that it has all the functions, Ling is also preparing to launch the official version.
"The official version of the forum website is launched today. I decided to name it Mr. White Rabbit."
"Mr. White Rabbit?" Alice chewed on the name with a complicated expression. "Is this okay?"
Mr. White Rabbit is a character in "Alice in Wonderland", which is equivalent to naming it after Alice.
"Because this platform was originally developed by Alice."
Mr. White Rabbit, who is always worried about being late and always in a hurry, brought Alice to Wonderland.
Alice has locked herself in a 17-square-meter fortress forever. I hope this "Mr. White Rabbit" can also take her to her own wonderland.
A virtual world called the Internet.
Chapter 313 Physical Examination
"I hope we can upload our first video together for 'Mr. White Rabbit'."
The founders of the website are Reiya, Tomoyo, Sakura, and Alice.
The four of us shot a video together and uploaded it as the first video on this website after the website server was updated. It always feels very memorable.
It will take a whole day to update, and Mr. White Rabbit Forum will be officially put into use tonight.
It supports pictures, text, videos, live broadcasts, and has familiar functions such as comments, searches, private messages, hot rankings, and public account certification.
It is exactly the same platform as the mature Weibo and Facebook in later generations.
Ling also believes that as long as people use it, they will gradually become familiar with this lifestyle. The prospects are limitless.
So Ling was serious this time. Not only Mr. White Rabbit, she invested a large amount of money on the virtual platform, even for the Oshima family.
R&D, operation, and promotion all require a lot of money.
Initially, Lingye actually wanted to try out online shopping platforms, as she couldn't get used to the days without Taobao. She really wanted to be able to go shopping in a mall with just one click on her phone.
But later she discovered that the island country did not have such soil.
There are no conditions for developing third-party payment here. Even in the 21st century, they are still used to cash and credit cards. The stubbornness of privacy and security makes Ling's original thoughts become fantasy. Moreover, the transportation cost is even higher than the rent of the physical store, so the profit margin of the online store is limited.
For various reasons, even if she invested a lot of money and promoted it according to the "successful experience" of the pony she knew, she would still fail due to the differences in regional culture.
The same is true for Meituan and the like.
The Japanese seem to prefer offline transactions between people face to face. It is hard to tell whether this is the ultimate trust or extreme distrust between people.
Even if they can't find the product at the moment, they would rather go to a purchasing agent than trust the Internet. As a result, many "one-person trading companies" have emerged that specialize in running errands for people.
(Mr. Goro Inogashira, who was eating grilled kebabs on the roadside, sneezed)
Although her family is rich, Lingye's every investment is actually rational, so she chose to give up as soon as possible when she should.
JD.com, Taobao Pass, Meituan, Ele.me Pass.
But in Alice's opinion, the Oshima family was crazy enough. They invested tens or even eleven figures of money in a new industry that is invisible and intangible, such as virtual networks.
Alice has seen many bosses who are not short of money, because the military she often deals with is one of them.
For orders for various program development, we only look at the results and do not bargain at all.
However, this is the first time Alice has seen someone like Ling, who treats investment as casually as a game of Monopoly and gives the impression that he has no concept of money at all.
No one knows what the future prospects will be in this unprecedented field. Instead of doing real estate, even the popular financial companies are selling off their assets and investing in this virtual place.
In Alice's opinion, the virtual network is just Lingye's personal interest. It is a blessing for Neets like her. Will other people be interested in it? Maybe it's just a temporary novelty.
Her classmate dared to spend hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars. It was simply unreasonable.
Unaware of the situation, Reiya took out his cell phone and started recording a video.
It was half an hour later that I came out of the swimming pool. After soaking in the water for so long, the dead keratin cells in the stratum corneum of my skin absorbed water and swelled, especially on my fingers. The skin became wrinkled and looked very uncomfortable.
Alice was the worst hit. She hadn't had any contact with water or sunlight for a long time, so her exposed arms and neck were all sunburned. Fortunately, her skin hadn't peeled off. It was just that her skin was too fair, so it was noticeable.
"I hate the sun the most!"
Alice protested in the strongest terms.
Today alone, she got more sun exposure than she had in the previous five years.
But looking at Dr. Pepper in front of her, and the plenty of ice cream on the food cart pushed by the maid, she felt that basking in the sun occasionally was not such an unacceptable thing.
"The health doctor is coming to check on Monday. Will you come to school?"
Except for the one day she visited school earlier, Alice didn't come again in the following months.
Alice mumbled like a hamster after taking a bite of her strawberry sundae. She shook her head and spoke in a vague voice.
"No, I don't need a physical examination."
She doesn't have her annual physical examination done by the school health doctor, but someone is responsible for it.
When Reiya and the others were talking about doctors, it happened that Beidou also needed a doctor.
"You have cavities?" Konno was a little surprised. Isn't that a disease that only elementary school students get?
Toothache is not a disease, but it can be fatal.
"I didn't have cavities when I was in school, why do I have cavities now?"
Beidou was very depressed. When he was in school, many of his classmates had cavities. At that time, he could not empathize with them and even laughed at them. Now he understands it, but he does not want such a "precious experience" at all.
It hurts so much, it's really excruciating.
Tonight it is Beidou's turn to patrol at night.
On the way, because the base's radar received an alarm of unknown signals between the Earth and the Moon's orbit, he turned the Cosmos around and entered outer space.
The aircraft in TAC, whether it is the Cosmos, Airo or Eagle, all have the ability to enter and exit the atmosphere and fight in outer space alone.
As a result, after patrolling a circle, Airo found nothing at the marked address, probably another false alarm.
This happens all the time, it happens when the radar is too sensitive.
Then on the way back, his toothache came back. It hurt so much that he even had hallucinations. He saw the missile beast Beracon again. It was the original beast that killed him and Minami Shiko, and then Ace gave life to them.
I'm here to take revenge on you, Ace.
He heard this sentence vaguely, but it was just an illusion, the universe was empty, there was nothing.
There are no super beasts, no aliens. Yabo is dead, and as we all know, the dead cannot take revenge on the living. It's not like Zoda, a sticky plaster, who can be resurrected again and again with resentment.
Nothing happened until the Airo returned and Beidou left the hangar and returned to the command room.
In Tokyo, when Beidou returned, the sun had already risen from the horizon and a new day had begun.
"Beidou, if it really hurts, go to the hospital for treatment." Captain Long also noticed Beidou's pale face. "Don't underestimate tooth decay. Toothache infection may even cause myocarditis and pneumonia. It was originally just an oral problem. If it is not treated for a long time, it may even cause sepsis. Tooth decay can really kill people."
The most troublesome thing is that tooth decay will not heal on its own. If you don't treat it or avoid seeing a doctor, it will only get worse.
"I understand, Captain. I will go to the hospital during the day."
Beidou has one advantage, he is not stubborn. Also, there is a molar in the cheek that is really painful. The pain goes straight to the forehead along the nerve. No wonder he has hallucinations.
After the night patrol, it was time to rest during the day. Beidou went to the dental clinic because he couldn't sleep due to toothache.
As expected, Alice did not attend the physical examination at Tomoeda Elementary School in the morning.
The annual physical examination of students is also an important task for the school, and professional doctors from the Municipal Children's Health Hospital are invited to conduct it.
