Chapter 59: [Equipment] Bumper Harvest!

Early the next morning, another precious Sunday, Zhai Da was brushing his teeth in the restroom, sleepy-eyed.

Lu Wei walked over with a toothbrush cup. Zhai Da took the cup from her hand and placed it on the sink: "Put it here from now on, next to mine. Every morning when I see you bringing it in, I always have the illusion that I'm in a dormitory."

He squeezed toothpaste for Lu Wei and placed it by her mouth.

Lu Wei's little mouth reached forward and bit it.

The two of them brushed their teeth together in front of the mirror, inexplicably syncing up again.

Zhai Da suddenly thought of the secret signal agreed upon yesterday, switched to brushing with his left hand, and extended his right hand to Lu Wei.

Lu Wei, with the toothbrush in her mouth, also extended a pale, slender hand.

Palm, back of the hand, upper fist bump, lower fist bump.

The process went smoothly, and his mood was pleasant.

It was definitely not because he got to touch a little hand early in the morning.

Zhai Da suddenly noticed the scale under the sink, pulled it out with his foot, and said to Lu Wei: "Get on the scale, let's see how much you weigh."

Lu Wei stood on it obediently. The number on the scale was very small and shaking, so Zhai Da simply squatted down to see clearly.

The jade-silkworm-like toes made Zhai Da's attention wander slightly, but he was soon shocked by the number on the scale.

"43 kilograms... that's not right! You're wearing a whole set of clothes!"

Zhai Da was somewhat stunned...

In his concept, what difference did this weight have from immortal cultivation?

Zhai Da shook his head: "You've been living here for half a month and are still this thin. If word gets out, people will think my mom and I are abusing you!"

"From now on, you eat three buns for breakfast, two meat dishes for lunch at the cafeteria, and for dinner at home, you pick the fatty meat to eat!"

Lu Wei hesitated: "I can't eat that much..."

"This is a mission. You must at least reach B! I mean, reach 50 kilograms!"

Both of them got up late today. Yu Yu Xiaoli had already gone out to chat with her old friend, but Zhai Da and Lu Wei had their own arrangements. The two ate hot buns at a breakfast shop downstairs, and Zhai Da watched Lu Wei finish three whole buns.

Then he got on the "Twenty-Eight" bicycle that nominally belonged to him but which he rarely had the chance to ride.

Lu Wei was wearing a plain long dress today. To avoid getting it caught in the bicycle wheels, she slightly lifted her toes, and the rise and fall seemed to trace the traces of the wind.

The two first went to the Red Flag Mall to buy a mobile phone battery for Lu Wei. This girl also lived a two-point-one-line life every day, and since Zhai Da, the only person she needed to contact, had become her roommate, this little problem hadn't been solved until now.

An original Nokia battery cost 280, and there was no guarantee it was truly original, so Zhai Da decisively chose a domestic battery for 30 yuan.

He wouldn't feel bad even if it exploded; the next one would be more obedient.

Lu Wei insisted on paying for it herself, using the 1,000 yuan he had given her earlier. She lived extremely frugally like a little mythical creature that gathers wealth, and the rare extra expenses were all on Zhai Da and Yu Yu Xiaoli.

She was using her own way to turn gratitude into a trickling stream, filling every inconspicuous corner.

After changing the battery, Zhai Da went for a stroll around the "Antique Street" behind the Red Flag Mall, but unfortunately, there were no gains. The original owner of the 【Old Man's TV】 was watching *Slam Dunk* on a new TV, and the person's interests remained as unchanging as ever.

So was the person's life.

After finishing the chores, Zhai Da loaded Lu Wei and headed toward Sunmazhuang.

The further they went, the heavier Lu Wei's mood became, and she gripped Zhai Da's little belly tighter.

Zhai Da looked down.

Now that he had more time, could he consider exercising his body... Lu Wei deserved to hold onto eight-pack abs while riding a bicycle.

There was also the unlocking task for the 【Nerd's Eyeglass Cloth】: fairly defeat ten people or be defeated by ten people... so hard... although he didn't want to admit it, the latter seemed easier to achieve.

If there was a chance, he could see if there was a gym nearby with boxing classes...

The bicycle moved forward all the way, passed the national highway where trucks roared, and arrived at Sunmazhuang.

Under that strange residential building, two men were smoking.

Zhai Da stopped the bike and waved: "Executive Wang, sorry for the trouble."

Wang Wang Guofeng, an executive from FY; they were the ones who raided the house last time.

But times had changed. The other party nodded and said: "It's fine, let's go up."

Ever since he obtained 【Lu Wei's Math Notes】 and learned she had more, Zhai Da had been eyeing the things in this house.

However, it had already been sealed and the locks changed. Zhai Da's choice was to go through the proper channels.

Sometimes, resorting to crooked ways is purely because of a deviation in the understanding of the rules; it's unnecessary.

He contacted Wang Wang Guofeng through the business card he got that day and stated directly that Lu Wei was going to participate in the college entrance exam and needed to go home to get some study materials, although he hadn't persuaded Lu Wei at the time.

Wang Wang Guofeng had no reason to block it. The banner of the college entrance exam was too useful. He immediately applied for "non-executive item retrieval," and today was that very occasion.

At the door of 202, Lu Wei looked at the dilapidated iron door with mixed feelings. The white seal on it was particularly eye-catching, seemingly symbolizing the complete end of a home.

Zhai Da turned to look at Wang Wang Guofeng. The other party stepped forward, tore off the seal—they would stick a new one on later—and then took the new key from his colleague to open the door.

It revealed a mess inside, like an abandoned construction site.

Trash, fragments, muddy footprints, cigarette butts... clearly, the moving company people wouldn't consider hygiene issues.

Zhai Da looked at Lu Wei, but unfortunately, her face still lacked expression. In all the time he had known her, the most emotional Lu Wei had ever been was that day in the shadow of this building.

Wang Wang Guofeng: "Go find it. I still have to register everything you take away. Also, I have to watch the entire process of searching. No objections, right?"

Every step was legal and compliant.

Lu Wei walked into the innermost room, and Zhai Da followed behind, looking around.

Two rooms without a living room, a corridor connecting the two rooms. Besides the two bedrooms, there was only a kitchen. The total area probably didn't exceed 35 square meters; it was indeed the style of a factory dormitory.

The TV, refrigerator, and any furniture with value were all gone. The most numerous things were "trash."

Plastic bags, bowls and chopsticks, towels.

Maybe they weren't trash originally, but evidence of life, but after being thrown on the ground without pity, they could only be trash.

Lu Wei's bedroom was also extremely simple. Judging by the traces on the ground, there should have been only a bed and a desk, both of which were gone now. A large number of books were thrown on the ground, and Lu Wei squatted down to search.

At just one glance, two broken lines appeared in Zhai Da's vision.

"Congratulations to the host, discovered white special item 【Lu Wei's Math Notes (II)】"

"Congratulations to the host, discovered white special item 【Lu Wei's Math Notes (III)】"

"Current status: Not obtained, not unlocked."

"Equipment Effect 1: Carrying it can slightly increase math comprehension ability, with a double bonus when studying the notes themselves."

"Equipment Effect 2: Focusing on the notes themselves has a very small probability of 【temporarily】 resonating with the owner's talent, gaining improvement (ineffective for the owner)."

"Note: Only when 'talented people' create with care can their notes become 'special items'."

Zhai Da was faster than Lu Wei and found these two from a pile of books.

However, the other notes were ordinary items, including the "Physics Notes" and "Chemistry Notes" Lu Wei had mentioned earlier.

It seems this girl's talent is mainly concentrated in math. Of course, it's not to say the other subjects are bad; they are also at a level that can compete among thousands of students, just not enough to be certified by the system.

Because Lu Wei was going to participate in the college entrance exam, she also found a few study materials and planned to take them away together.

Once the necessary things were taken, Zhai Da didn't intend to let Lu Wei stay too long; it would only increase her sorrow.

Wang Wang Guofeng began to register the items, while Zhai Da strolled through each room.

He tried to find a photo of Lu Wei's mother, but found nothing... perhaps when this home hadn't collapsed, there were no photos hanging up either...

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he picked out a keychain from a pile of debris.

To be precise, it was a key pendant, and the image on it was very familiar to him.

A panda named "Panpan."

The panda holding a gold medal, made of metal baking paint, was already a bit faded.

"Congratulations to the host, discovered white special item 【Asian Games Keychain】: In 1990, a couple took their unborn child to watch an Asian Games match together. At that time, they were full of longing for the future."

"Ownership status: Not owned, not activated."

"Equipment Effect: Increases stamina by 10% when worn, slightly increases dopamine."

"Note: For many years afterward, the exhausted owner would take out this keychain in the middle of the night to stare at it alone, trying to draw even a little bit of beautiful memory from it."

It was a special item wrapped in intense emotions, but only its owner knew it, including Lu Wei, who might not even know the significance of its existence.

Zhai Da said to Wang Wang Guofeng: "This thing isn't worth money, can we take it together?"

Wang Wang Guofeng had no objections; a faded old keychain, it didn't matter. ===== CHAPTER 60 =====
