Chapter 725: Old Classmate

Xu Que was excited and immediately clicked on Xu Feifei's chat box, typing, "Feifei, did you see it? I really am your brother; I didn't die!"

However, this time, the message was slow to send successfully, just like the night before, always displaying "Sending..."

"Damn it, are you messing with me? Important things won't send, but unimportant ones send in seconds?" Xu Que cursed, almost so angry he wanted to smash the phone.

"Ding-dong!"

At this moment, a notification sound for a reply rang out. Xu Que looked down and saw it was indeed from Cai Tengjin!

"Holy sh*t! All special effects? Really? This... this isn't scientific. Your special effects are too realistic; I'm afraid Hollywood abroad can't do it either, right?"

Seeing this, the corners of Xu Que's mouth twitched. Isn't this nonsense? If special effects could be made this realistic, wouldn't that be something?

However, it was rare to finally have an acquaintance from Earth to communicate with, which was at least not bad! It could be considered a successful start!

And the most crucial thing was that, judging from Lao Cai's tone, this guy didn't seem to know the fact that he had already died!

"Ding-dong!"

At this moment, Cai Tengjin sent another message: "Old classmate, stop messing around. Tell me where you are quickly. I'm filming on the top of a mountain right now, the signal is too poor. I specifically went to connect to a big shot's private satellite signal to contact you!"

Hmm?

Private satellite signal?

There's such an operation?

Xu Que was stunned for a moment. Could it be that because Cai Tengjin connected to a satellite signal, he could send and receive messages with him so quickly?

To verify this, Xu Que hurriedly opened the WeChat chat boxes of others and frantically sent messages, then immediately replied to Cai Tengjin.

Sure enough, except for the messages to Cai Tengjin which could be sent successfully in seconds, the others all showed sending failure.

But Xu Que wasn't disappointed; instead, he was full of joy and exclaimed, "Holy sh*t, I've finally found a way!"

He hurriedly pressed the number Cai Tengjin had sent earlier and dialed it, waiting with a racing heart.

If he could get through on the phone, that would be amazing. As long as he could get a private satellite signal on Earth, he could connect with himself!

Although he didn't know what kind of black technology this was, it was always worth a try!

"Beep... beep..."

Soon, a slow waiting sound came from the phone, which also meant the call had been dialed successfully.

Just as a look of full joy and expectation appeared on Xu Que's face, the call was finally connected!

"Hello, who is this?"

Listening to the voice coming from the phone, Xu Que was unusually excited and shouted, "Lao Cai, holy sh*t, Lao Cai, damn it, I finally succeeded!"

"Uh? You are... Little Xuzi?" Cai Tengjin on the other end was stunned for a moment and asked uncertainly.

Xu Que immediately shouted excitedly, "Yes, it's me, it's me, Lao Cai, Ah Cai, Social Cai!"

"Ay yo, holy sh*t, you finally replied to me. What kind of ancient drama are you filming dressed like that? Hurry up, give me the address, I'll film a TV series for you! With your looks, you'll definitely be a hit!" Cai Tengjin replied on the other end.

Xu Que ignored him directly and went straight to the point, "Lao Cai, remember my sister Xu Feifei? I got separated from her. It's a matter of life and death; hurry up and help me find her!"

At a time like this, he was very worried that the call would suddenly cut off, so he didn't dare to chat about idle matters at all!

Lao Cai replied, "Feifei? Of course I remember, but I haven't been in contact for many years. How did you get separated?"

Xu Que: "These aren't the key points; the key point is to find her quickly! I'm afraid she's in danger!"

Lao Cai: "Okay, how long have you been out of contact?"

Xu Que was stunned by the question, "Uh... what year is it now?"

The other end of the phone was silent for a long while, and then Lao Cai's scolding came: "Holy sh*t, brother, are you messing with me? Of course it's 2023 now!"

2023?

Xu Que did the math, "That's right, I've been out of contact with her for 6 years!"

As soon as these words came out, the other end of the phone was silent again.

"You've been out of contact with your sister for 6 years, and now you're in a hurry to find her?" Lao Cai was already a bit messy on the other end, even suspecting if Xu Que was crazy.

Xu Que replied, "Yeah! Things are complicated. I can only contact you alone right now; you must remember to help me find her!"

"Ah? You can only contact me?" Lao Cai was stunned, "It's strange to say, my signal here is very weak; the phones of the entire crew can't make calls, and neither can I. As a result, chatting and calling you is no problem! Don't worry, my crew will wrap up in a few days, and I'll definitely help you find her when I get back!"

"Okay, thank you! This matter is very important; you must remember. When I get back, I'll thank you properly!" Xu Que replied.

"Thank you, my foot. Hurry up and give me the address of that photo in your Moments!"

"Dizzy, that's really a special effect!" Xu Que was ashamed.

"Spe... special effect? Okay, okay, okay, special effect it is. You find time to record a video for me; I'll see how your scene... uh, see how this 'special effect' is exactly!"

Clearly, Lao Cai didn't believe Xu Que's words, but he still followed his lead, saying it was a special effect, but actually, he still wanted to see the appearance of the entire ancient city.

Xu Que's mouth curled up, and he smiled, "Okay, absolutely no problem, but remember the direction you are calling from now, and you must connect to this satellite signal, otherwise you won't be able to contact me!"

"What the hell, you... beep beep beep beep..."

Suddenly, before Lao Cai finished speaking, a busy tone came from Xu Que's phone.

"Damn it, did it really cut off?" Xu Que's face fell, and the thing he was worried about happened.

He hurriedly pressed the redial button, but a stuttering female voice came from the phone: "Sorry, your phone has been suspended; please top up in time..."

Damn!

Out of credit?

Xu Que widened his eyes on the spot, never expecting that he had calculated everything, but missed the credit top-up!

"Ding!"

When Xu Que hung up the phone, it rang, and there was a new text message.

He pressed it open and was instantly dumbfounded.

"Respected user, as of July 21, 2023, your phone has an outstanding balance of 26,705 yuan. To avoid affecting your normal use, please top up in time! Thank you for your cooperation!"

"Out... outstanding balance of 26,000? Damn it, China Mobile, do you have to be so dark?" Xu Que was instantly furious.

Meanwhile, on Earth.

In an extremely remote mountain, a crew was busy.

Lao Cai listened to the busy tone on the phone and couldn't help but frown: "Damn it, this guy actually hung up on me!"

After speaking, he dialed Xu Que's number again according to the number he had called, but froze.

The phone prompted that the other party had been suspended.

"Holy sh*t, this kid doesn't even have credit? We were talking about serious business; why is there no credit?" Lao Cai shook his head speechlessly.

At this moment, an employee exclaimed, "Haha, my phone can dial numbers!"

Immediately after, the others also shouted one after another:

"Eh? I can dial too!"

"Haha, me too! And I can go online, the internet speed is not bad!"

"Finally, it's back to normal!"

Lao Cai's eyes lit up, he looked at an employee not far away, and shouted, "Xiao Ming, hurry up and go online to top up 100 yuan to this number. I have something urgent to find him; we were just chatting halfway and this guy ran out of credit!"

"Okay, Director!" Xiao Ming responded immediately, picked up his phone, and topped up!

Before long, he was done: "Director, it's topped up!"

"Thanks!" Lao Cai took out 100 yuan and handed it to Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming hurriedly waved his hand, "Director, it's just topping up some credit; why are you being so polite with me!"

Lao Cai stared, "If I tell you to take it, take it."

Xiao Ming was also very straightforward, replying, "Director, don't look down on me. I've been with you for so long; is it possible that I have to charge money to help you top up credit?"

"Take it or leave it!" Lao Cai didn't have time to argue with Xiao Ming now, picked up his phone, and dialed Xu Que's number again.

As a result... the phone still prompted that it was suspended!

"Holy sh*t, still suspended? Xiao Ming, did you not top up successfully?"

"Ah? That's not right; it was successful!"

"Forget it, top up another 100 yuan!"

"Okay! Topped up!"

"Hmm, let me try again... holy sh*t, still can't get through. How much credit does this guy owe exactly?"

"It's okay, Director, I'll top up 1,000 for him directly!"

"Dizzy, don't! Let that guy top up himself."

"Hehe, Director, I've already topped up; you can call with peace of mind now!"

"You..." Lao Cai shook his head and dialed Xu Que's number again.

The next moment, Lao Cai was dumbfounded again.

The phone still reminded him that "the user you dialed has been suspended"!

"Damn it!" Lao Cai cursed on the spot.

Xiao Ming was startled, "Director, what's wrong? Still can't get through? Could it be that the credit top-up is delayed?"

Lao Cai's temper also flared up, he waved his hand and said, "Damn it, Xiao Ming, top up 10,000 yuan for me. If I can't get through this time, I'll livestream eating sh*t!"
