Hidden Easter egg in Chapter 37?
After seeing Feng Shuyuan off, Min Xiangchen breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the young woman in front of him still making something, Min Xiangchen was a little curious.
He tried to strike up a conversation with the young woman:
"What kind of food is this?"
"This is a pizza. Since it's made to order, please wait a little while. Please be patient."
Min Xiangchen nodded, looking at the young lady's profile as she worked diligently.
The sunlight slanted across her face, casting a soft golden hue on her profile.
How long have you been working here?
Min Xiangchen suddenly asked.
The young woman didn't expect Min Xiangchen to chat with her, but she herself seemed to be a talkative person.
Therefore, after a slight pause, she naturally continued Min Xiangchen's words.
"I've only been working for one day? The hot spring just opened yesterday."
As she spoke, a hint of a smile appeared in her voice.
"Weren't you recruited in advance? Where did you work before?"
The young woman shook her head: "I used to be from my hometown, not here."
"hometown?"
Min Xiangchen heard a word that surprised him.
"Yes, a place very far from here."
Why did you come to work so far away?
Min Xiangchen was somewhat puzzled.
Many jobs are now done online, and in order to save costs, most companies are even implementing work-from-home policies.
However, all Min Xiangchen received was silence.
Realizing that this topic seemed inappropriate, Min Xiangchen chuckled and changed the subject.
"By the way, my name is Min Xiangchen, I'm a live streamer. What's your name?"
"My name is Gong Siying. Before... I was a student."
"However, because my family was poor, I have many years of work experience. So you don't have to worry about the taste; these snacks are no problem for me at all."
student?
Are students in Gong Siying's hometown experiencing such hardship?
However, Min Xiangchen did not ask.
Gong Siying seems to have some aversion to things related to her hometown.
"Students, I actually graduated just a year ago. You only realize how carefree university life was after you graduate.
Gong Siying seemed to give a wry smile.
"It's great. When I was a child, I heard people around me telling me how wonderful college was, and I was really looking forward to my college life."
"Unfortunately, when I was in college, there was a terrible pandemic. All schools were closed, and we could only take online classes at home."
"More importantly, because of the pandemic, I couldn't go out to do part-time work, and I often didn't know where my next meal would come from."
"That was a really tough time."
"Later, the pandemic ended, and I wasn't so short of money anymore, but I still kept up the habit of doing part-time jobs."
"After all, it's always good to save more money."
Hearing Gong Siying's words, Min Xiangchen fell silent.
He roughly understood what Gong Siying wanted to express, but there were some things he couldn't quite grasp.
It turns out that in this day and age, there are still people who can't even afford nutritional supplements.
"Speaking of which, besides making these snacks, I also worked part-time as a Didi driver during my junior year of college."
"However, it was also in that year that self-driving technology began to be put into use,"
It seemed like she hadn't chatted with anyone in a long time; Gong Siying's hands didn't stop, and neither did her mouth.
However, after hearing what Gong Siying said, Min Xiangchen was suddenly stunned.
Since he can remember, self-driving technology has been one of the most common technologies.
He quickly went online to search for modern history.
really!
Autonomous driving has existed since the beginning of history.
Why did Gong Siying say that their self-driving technology had just been put into practice in their junior year of college?
Moreover, she just said she is still a student, so this incident probably didn't happen more than a few years ago.
Why is there such a big difference between what Gong Siying said and what he knew?
Suddenly, Min Xiangchen thought of the murder mystery game scripts she had played before, and what Sister Feng had said: Everyone has their own story.
Perhaps this is an Easter egg?
Besides having everyone write the storylines, Sister Feng, are you also telling everyone that each staff member has their own storyline to be explored?
Min Xiangchen wasn't the only one to notice the anomaly; many viewers in the live stream also took notice of the self-driving technology.
But it's clear they haven't thought of that aspect yet.
Thinking of this, Min Xiangchen became excited.
He realized that perhaps he was the only one who had discovered this.
Now, he must expand his advantage.
Could you tell me more about your story?
Min Xiangchen suddenly became eager.
"?"
Gong Siying was somewhat puzzled by Min Xiangchen's sudden change in attitude.
"Mr. Min, here is your popcorn chicken."
Gong Siying placed the freshly prepared food in front of Min Xiangchen, filled the cola bottle, and then continued speaking.
"Nothing special, I'm just an ordinary kid from a poor family."
“When I was little, my parents worked in the city, and I lived with my grandparents in the countryside.”
“My grandparents work in the fields, and I stay home to help feed the chickens and ducks, wash vegetables, and so on.”
"Later, my father died in an accident in the city, and my mother ran away with the compensation money, so I stayed with my grandparents."
"Later, my grandfather fell ill. I originally wanted to drop out of school to pay for his treatment, but my grandparents disagreed."
"So I had to work part-time while attending school."
While listening to Gong Siying's story, Min Xiangchen even forgot to eat.
Gong Siying spoke casually.
Min Xiangchen felt a pang of sadness.
My guess was right.
What Gong Siying said is definitely not something that happened on this timeline.
But even if he guessed it was just a story, Min Xiangchen didn't like it.
"Mr. Min, your chicken nuggets are ready."
Gong Siying, on the other hand, was completely unaffected by the storytelling and continued to work smoothly.
Looking at the two plates of golden, crispy food in front of him, Min Xiangchen decided to try them first to calm himself down.
Two foods that are both golden in color, but taste completely different when you bite into them.
The outer shell of the popcorn chicken is extremely crispy.
The moment Min Xiangchen bit down, he even heard a "crunching" sound as his teeth rubbed against the shell.
The inside of this popcorn chicken is in stark contrast to the outer shell, being very soft.
Chewing it fills your mouth with a rich chicken flavor.
The other chicken nugget's skin wasn't as crispy as the popcorn chicken, and your teeth easily pierced through it.
However, the chicken nuggets have a firmer texture and are more satisfying to eat.
Completely different textures, yet equally delicious.
After emptying both plates again, Min Xiangchen wiped his mouth.
He glanced at the large print on his phone calendar: 237 years later, and asked again:
"By the way, I wanted to ask when you mentioned the deployment of driverless vehicles."
Gong Siying replied in a matter-of-fact tone:
"How could I forget? It's 2024."
