Followers: 120, 35 likes, 6 followers]

In this small live broadcast room, a girl with a sweet face was singing and sometimes scratching her face. Her singing voice is actually very ordinary, but it is youthful and lively, and some viewers are watching. If someone from the audience gives a gift, the girl will stop singing and say a word of thanks before singing.

She only broadcasts live at night. She has been live broadcasting for a week, and the actual number of viewers was more than 50 at its peak.

"It's 12 o'clock, so late. Brothers, let's just live here today, see you tomorrow. Thank you Mr. Jiaohua for the lucky bag! We'll see you tomorrow, bye, good night." The sweet girl smiled and stood up. , the image in the live broadcast room was frozen.

After those viewers said "Good Night" one after another, the number of viewers quickly dropped.

In front of the mobile phone used for live broadcast, Tian Yiqing took a breath and scratched her face to see how much income she earned from the live broadcast this night... she could get 15 yuan.

"Not bad." She said to herself, "If I didn't live broadcast, I wouldn't be able to earn 15 yuan."

Inside the camera is a corner of an elegantly decorated room, but outside the camera, it is actually a single room in a small rental house in the village, about ten square meters, with one bathroom, and the monthly rent is 300 yuan. She spent the three hundred yuan just to try out live broadcasting as a student, otherwise she would have lived in the factory dormitory.

It was already midnight, and she had to get up early to go to work tomorrow. The alarm on her phone was set to ring at 6:30, and Tian Yiqing went to the bathroom to wash up in a hurry.

She just turned 18 this month, but she stopped studying two years ago. Children from small inland mountain villages don't have that kind of environment. Last year, she left her hometown and came to this small coastal town in the south. She found an assembly line job in a jewelry processing factory, which provided food and accommodation, and she could earn 2,000 yuan a month.

This small town has not been affected by the Legionnaires' disease plague. The factory just closed for a few days and then reopened, but everyone wore masks.

But as the situation gradually calms down, people don’t even wear masks as much these days.

Recently, her co-workers were talking enthusiastically about Tianji Bureau, Tianji University, supernatural powers, Gu Jun... those were all very far away, like another world.

Tian Yiqing was still thinking about what was in front of her. Could it be like this for the rest of her life? She works on the assembly line every day loading jewelry, earning 20,000 yuan a year... When she started making money last year, she was very excited and satisfied, but after only half a year, she became increasingly unable to endure it...

It wasn't that she was physically tired, it was just that she couldn't feel the meaning or even her own existence.

It's not worth it, it's not worth living like this...

Tian Yiqing wanted to leave the assembly line and the factory. She had a lot of daydreams, but in recent years they, the factory girls, had a big star to look up to.

"A big star is also a factory girl! We don't look bad, so why can't we be good?"

"Don't talk about celebrities. I heard from a friend that she knew a friend who became an Internet celebrity through live broadcasting. He sang every day and could earn millions a year."

"How many millions!?" Tian Yiqing couldn't even think of such an annual income figure. She thought she could earn 100,000 or 80,000 yuan a year, which would be awesome.

How many million a year? How to spend it?

star? Internet celebrity? I...maybe, too?

This is why Tian Yiqing rented a house by herself and spent money to buy a set of live broadcast equipment. She wanted to give it a try.

The environment of this rental house is not very good. It is next to a village alley. There are some houses and other rental houses around. There are the sounds of children crying, bicycles, motorcycles and other vehicles passing by, dogs barking, and a The crow of the local grandma’s rooster…

After one week of live broadcast, although the total income was less than 100 yuan, Tian Yiqing was really excited when the first audience member to give her a gift showed up. She could also make this kind of money! Everything is difficult at the beginning, but your popularity will become higher and higher, and your income will also increase.

At this time, Tian Yiqing wiped her washed hair with a towel. Her cheeks were a little itchy, and she couldn't help but scratch them with her hands.

Except for the thumb, all four fingers of his right hand were gently grasping the skin of his cheek, one side and then the other.

She took a mirror and looked at it, and saw that the face in the mirror was a little red from being scratched. It was fine during the day, but why was it itchy?

"It's nothing." Tian Yiqing used her small box of moisturizer and applied it on it. It was just a little itchy, and it would get better after a while.

After drying her hair, she turned off the light, lay down on the small folding bed in the corner, pulled up the quilt, and read an email on her phone:

[Dream girl, you have successfully registered! 】

Tian Yiqing looked at this line of text, feeling a little at ease and looking forward to the future.

This is a reply email for a successful registration for an online talent show. This program will select girls with dreams across the country to create a new female idol group. Many myths have been born from this type of talent show in recent years.

Live streaming is one way to go, but Tian Yiqing also has fantasies about participating in talent shows and becoming a star. Maybe she will get lucky?

Just one look at the email made her feel motivated.

"Go to sleep, go to sleep, don't think about it." Tian Yiqing put down her phone, closed her eyes, and let herself fall asleep quickly. She has to get up early to go to the factory tomorrow...

Just when she was about to fall asleep, her cheeks felt itchy again. She had to reach out to scratch her, and her sleepiness suddenly disappeared.

"Hey." Tian Yiqing muttered helplessly and turned to the side a few times. Her face was so itchy that she couldn't help but grab it vigorously.

Are you allergic to something?

She doesn't have any ointment here... Fortunately, after holding it for a while, I feel much relieved. She was tired after a busy day, so she scratched and caressed her, and gradually fell asleep in a daze. In her sleep, she scratched her cheeks with her hands from time to time, without even noticing it...

Until the itching sensation on her skin became stronger and stronger, pulling her out of her sleep.

"Ah..." Tian Yiqing grabbed a few strong fists on his face. The more he grabbed, the more comfortable he became, but the more he grabbed, the more he woke up.

Suddenly, she woke up completely, and found that both cheeks felt a burning itching, and the skin touched by her fingers seemed to be slightly swollen...

Don't have a rash, right? Thinking of this, Tian Yiqing quickly got up and took a look. She had to go to work tomorrow and live broadcast.

It was already past two o'clock in the middle of the night, and it was already dead of night outside, but the dogs around were all barking. The barks were ferocious and noisy, and they also made a weird howling sound. I didn't know what they were barking about.

Tian Yiqing felt a little upset after hearing this, so she walked over and turned on the light, and white light illuminated the small single room.

Don't get a rash... She took a look in the mirror, and when she saw the face in the mirror, the hairs all over her body suddenly stood up, and she couldn't help but scream: "Ah!!!"

Love the Plague Doctor.
