Chapter 24

In the Dingsheng Electronics store, Shi Lei was leaning against a chair with his feet on the table. He was not looking proper at all. Outside the store, a woman in sky-blue sportswear was looking at Shi Lei with a frown.

The woman's eyes were firm and her skin was a healthy wheat color. She was probably as tall as Mu Shuang. She was probably 6.2 meters tall, and she was wearing flat sneakers!

Seeing that Shi Lei did not respond, Xiao Liu took the initiative to walk up and said, "Hello, how can I help you?"

"Hello, can you process images here?" the woman asked.

Xiao Liu quickly nodded. "That's right. We provide professional image processing! Please take a seat. I'll get you a glass of water! "

The woman waved her hand. "There's no need. I …"

Before she could finish, Xiao Liu had already gone to pour her a glass of water!

The woman's eyes revealed a sense of helplessness. Although her skin was not fair and her voice was not soft, her wheat-colored skin, coupled with her determined face, was quite attractive!

Clearly, Xiao Liu was attracted to her and was trying to curry her favor.

The woman's name was Ou Yangxiang. She was a police officer. She was supposed to be at home with her mother on National Day, but because of an unexpected case, all the staff had to end their leave and return to the police station to be on standby.

Ou Yangxiang's mission was to find a civilian computer expert to help the police process an image of a criminal suspect.

Xiao Liu carried a glass of purified water and carefully placed it in front of Ou Yangxiang. "Hello, what image do you need to process?"

Ou Yangxiang casually introduced, "I need to process a blurry screenshot. I hope the screenshot will be clearer! Can you do it? "

Xiao Liu pretended to be deep in thought. Actually, he knew nothing!

After pretending to think for a while, Xiao Liu said, "Please wait a moment. I'll consult the technicians first!"

Xiao Liu walked to Shi Lei and whispered, "Stone Head!"

Shi Lei was still immersed in his own thoughts, thinking about what kind of software to design.

"Stone Head!" Xiao Liu's voice was slightly louder.

Ou Yangxiang looked at Xiao Liu and Shi Lei in surprise. From the looks of Shi Lei and Xiao Liu, it wasn't hard to tell that Xiao Liu was older than Shi Lei. But Little Liu actually called Shi Lei big brother, which made Ouyang Xiang a little puzzled!

"Ah?" Shi Lei's whole body trembled, and he almost fell backwards. "Little Liu, what's the matter?"

Xiao Liu quickly apologized, "Stone Head, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Shi Lei waved his hand and said, "Why did you call me?"

Xiao Liu pointed at Ou Yangxiang. "Stone Head, that beauty wants to deal with an image."

Shi Lei looked at Ou Yangxiang from head to toe. Ou Yangxiang's skin was as smooth as wheat. Coupled with her long and slender legs, she was very attractive! "Hey, girl, what image do you want to restore?"

Ou Yangxiang frowned. Ever since she became a police officer, no man had dared to speak to her in such a frivolous tone. Those who were inferior to her were afraid of her identity as a police officer; those who were superior to her were afraid of her fighting skills!

"Are you the technician in charge of processing the image?" Ou Yangxiang held back her dissatisfaction and asked.

Shi Lei nodded. "If it's not me, then it's you?"

Xiao Liu secretly gave him a thumbs up from the side! Stone Head was still the best! Facing such a beauty, he could still be so calm.

"What do you want to restore? Let me see!" Shi Lei asked.

Although Ou Yangxiang was angry, this was her job. She threw a USB flash drive over and said, "The screenshot is inside. I need to make this image clearer!"

Shi Lei casually reached out and caught the USB flash drive in the air. Then, he got up and walked to the repair station behind him.

"Xiao Liu, get me a glass of water!" Shi Lei ordered after plugging the USB flash drive into the USB port.

Xiao Liu looked at Ou Yangxiang awkwardly. Then, he went to the water dispenser and poured Shi Lei a glass of water.

There was only one file in the USB drive. It was a picture named '6.jpg'. Shi Lei opened the image and found that it was very unclear. It was full of noise and the lighting was very dim. It was probably taken at night!

Ou Yangxiang walked behind Shi Lei, and a clear voice came out from her mouth.

"How is it? Can you make it clearer? "

Shi Lei snapped his fingers. "Sure!"

Ou Yangxiang's serious face revealed a hint of a smile. Suddenly, it made her even more alluring. At least, Xiao Liu was stunned! "Really?"

Shi Lei nodded lazily. "Of course it's real! But, to restore this kind of image requires a lot of effort. The fee is a little high! "

Ou Yangxiang hesitated for a while and asked, "How much do you need?" In the Bureau, the lack of funds was a common problem. She also did not have much funds this time.

Shi Lei turned his chair and looked at Ou Yangxiang from head to toe. He rubbed his chin with his right hand and said like a hooligan: "Since you are a beauty, I will give you a 05% discount!"

Although Ou Yangxiang did not like Shi Lei's expression, she could not help but feel proud. Giving her a 05% discount based on her looks was an affirmation and compliment to her beauty! "Thank you!"

Shi Lei nodded and revealed a naughty smile. "Then I will only charge you 6,555 RMB!"

The smile on Ou Yangxiang's face froze. Her determined eyes were also slightly stunned. "How much?"

Shi Lei said seriously: "6,555 RMB!"

Ou Yangxiang immediately removed her USB drive from the computer and turned around to leave. Her actions were swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation!

Xiao Liu was anxious at the side. "Stone Head, this …. This …. Stone Head, the last time you helped Manager Feng restore the photo, you only charged 655 RMB for one photo. Why is it so expensive this time? "

Shi Lei glanced at Xiao Liu, "What's wrong? Is your heart aching for the beauty? "

Xiao Liu's face turned red. "I …. I …."

"Alright, Xiao Liu. Go and do your work!" Shi Lei waved his hand.

Shi Lei took out his USB flash drive and copied the photo into it. He then stood up and said, "Little Liu, tell Brother Feng that I have something to do and will leave. If I don't come back later, I'll leave the two servers with you!"

Xiao Liu nodded and did not send him off enthusiastically. Seems like it was because of the beauty!

After walking out of the Baishou building, Shi Lei was ready to rent a house. Although it was a doctoral dormitory in the school, he had his own room. However, if the teachers were to check on him, it would be hard to explain. Moreover, the servers were running 79 hours a day. The battery consumption was not small and would attract the school's attention.

Shiqiao District was the main city of Shuangqing City. It was very prosperous. On the other hand, it also caused the rent to be very expensive.

Shi Lei went to several real estate agencies and looked at the house prices. Even if it was a bedroom and a living room in a more remote location, it would still cost about 355 yuan. The average salary in 7551 was only about 6,555 yuan!

Although Shi Lei had made a small fortune, he still felt a little disgusted by the rent!

"Forget it, forget it. I will go back to Shuanghu District and rent a house! Not only is it closer to the school, but the rent is also much cheaper. Most importantly, I can also bring girls home! "Shi Lei whispered to himself and returned to the Baishou building.

Sun Feng had already bought the two servers and was drinking mineral water. "Yo, Brother Feng. You are back so soon!"

Shi Lei unceremoniously grabbed the other bottle of mineral water on the table, opened the cap, and drank it.

Shuangqing City in October was still very hot. After going out for a walk, Shi Lei was sweating profusely from the heat!

"Shi Tou, come and take a look!" Sun Feng patted the box containing the servers.

Shi Lei opened the box and connected various wires. Then, he started the two servers and looked at the configuration. He opened the box and looked at the internal components. Then, he asked, "Brother Feng, how much did it cost?"

"Not expensive. Forty-eight thousand yuan!" Sun Feng gave a price.

Shi Lei nodded, "Brother Feng, of the sixty thousand yuan, just give me ten thousand yuan! As for the remaining two thousand yuan, you can keep it. I can't let you do things for me without any benefits! "

Shi Lei looked at the two servers. Forty-eight thousand yuan was almost the base price. Moreover, it was the base price. Sun Feng probably didn't earn a single cent. Shi Lei naturally wouldn't let Sun Feng work for nothing. Therefore, he took the initiative to give him a profit of two thousand yuan.

As the saying goes, a loss is a blessing!

If he let Sun Feng work for nothing, even if he was a good friend, he would still be finished.

"This … Shi Tou, aren't you being too polite?" Sun Feng said embarrassedly.

Shi Lei insisted, "Brother Feng, I'm always troubling you. If you don't accept it, I won't bother you again next time!"

Sun Feng nodded reluctantly. Then, he turned on the computer and logged into the online banking. He said, "Shi Tou, I'll transfer the money to your bank account. It's not convenient to carry ten thousand yuan in cash with me. "

Shi Lei nodded in agreement, "Okay! Brother Feng, do as you see fit. It's getting late. I'll go back to school first! "

Sun Feng quickly said, "Xiao Liu, send Shi Tou back!"

Xiao Liu reluctantly said, "Okay, boss."

Shi Lei glanced at Xiao Liu and laughed, "I won't trouble Xiao Liu. The shop is busy!" Then, Shi Lei carried the two servers and went downstairs.

Once again, he took a taxi back to school extravagantly. Shi Lei's heart ached again. More than one hundred and twenty yuan flew away!

After carrying the two servers back to the dormitory, Shi Lei did not set up the servers. Anyway, they were not used in the dormitory. It would be a waste to set them up now!

After reluctantly eating dinner in the school cafeteria, Shi Lei returned to the dormitory. He turned on the computer and looked at the University of Science and Technology's campus forum.

The University of Science and Technology's campus forum had been restored by their administrator. In the forum, there was a post that advocated for the University of Science and Technology's students to voluntarily report the abnormal data of the network service.

Yesterday, Shi Lei made a mess of the University of Science and Technology, causing the University of Science and Technology to lose more than five million yuan.

Although the Dean of the University of Science and Technology's Computer Department, Huang Qiulin, knew that advocating was useless, he still put up a show.

Shi Lei opened the post and found that most of the replies were ridiculing and scolding him. Then, he closed the post.

Then, he flipped through the Shuangqing University's campus forum out of boredom. Then, he wanted to chat with Lingyumo in QQ. However, he found that Lingyumo was not online.

Shi Lei, who had nothing to do, could only play light music and lie in bed, thinking about where to rent a house tomorrow.

"A house, a house, you have a girl!"
