The next morning, Xu Shuo, who had gone to bed early yesterday, woke up naturally and felt refreshed. The mental fatigue caused by the previous script was completely eliminated.
He recovered so quickly that he even thought about starting a new script immediately.
After all, the world may mutate, and he wants to improve his strength as much as possible and earn more deduction points to buy props.
Speaking of which, it seems that Hongrao also arranged a script for him that can exercise his body and increase his strength value?
Oh, you were pushed back by his rejection?
That's okay.
Xu Shuo still wanted to experience the sense of reasoning brought by "Amusement Park" first, mainly because he really felt that he had read too many spoiler books before, which caused his thinking to solidify and his ability to react to things was reduced.
Regarding this, he felt that he had a deep understanding of this in "Free Night".
This is very detrimental to future growth.
Xu Shuo arranged his process clearly and went to the studio in a good mood in the morning. After seeing the game data, he immediately felt better.
But after he finished his morning work, a strange phone call came through at noon.
In fact, it's not completely unfamiliar.
It was only after Xu Shuo stared at the phone number and thought for two seconds that he realized who this person was.
There was no way, he wasn't familiar with him in the first place, and he hadn't contacted him in more than a thousand years. It was already pretty good that he could remember who this guy was so quickly.
Xu Shuo answered the phone: "Hello? Hello."
The other person paused: "Brother, why are you so polite all of a sudden? Have you written a long book?"
Xu Shuo: "..."
However, the beginning of that sentence was just a scene, and Luo Kai's voice immediately became serious, with a hint of seriousness: "Brother, there is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
Xu Shuo tilted his head and thought for a moment: "Bad news."
"Why do you want to hear the bad news first?"
"Forget it, I'm done."
"Hey, don't worry, the bad news is important. Our world may evolve towards the elements of change in the future, but this evolution is subject to being eroded by the abyss." Luo Kai said solemnly: "So, our world is being eroded by the abyss.
The abyss erodes.”
"oh."
"...Why don't you look surprised at all?"
"Oh oh oh!"
"You are too fake, brother!"
Luo Kai probably realized something, and said in an angry tone: "We agreed before that we would inform each other when there is news, but it turned out that you already knew about it but didn't tell me, right?"
In Luo Kai's understanding, the other party has a mentor and many powerful props. Even if he is not a second-generation gamer, he still has some background and may have already gotten the answer from his seniors.
He's the only one who's such a big idiot and happily comes over to share information!
"I came to tell you immediately after I found out the news, but you are too uninterested!"
The more Luo Kai thought about it, the angrier he became!
Especially when he thought about the script that he had been cheated on by the other party for so long, but just when he was about to continue to complain a few more words, the other party hung up the phone.
Luo Kai: "..."
After a while, his Player's Handbook received the message.
The other party recommended a player's business card to him, with an explanation: This person solved the "Green Train" incident.
…
When Xu Shuo heard the bad news, he roughly guessed what the good news would be.
The two of them went to Yuhuaba to investigate the red viaduct, and after returning with little success, Luo Kai said that he would stay in Yangcheng for a while, probably because he wanted to continue investigating this matter.
But since the other party has discovered signs of the abyss eroding the world, the good news in turn is that the abyss crack has been resolved.
What a coincidence, he happened to know about it yesterday.
You can't blame Xu Shuo for not telling him, after all, he didn't even think of him.
After casually betraying Themis' information, Xu Shuo temporarily let go of the issue of script space and concentrated on his work in this world.
To ensure traffic, a studio can only continuously launch new games. After "City of Fog" is launched, it has a dedicated operations department to manage it, while the technical department continues to develop new versions and games.
As the only game designer in the studio, Xu Shuo is actually very busy.
And there's another thing coming too.
The break this time was very long. Although Xu Shuo wanted to finish his studies quickly, he checked the time and saw that the college entrance examination was only a few days away.
Therefore, he decided to wait until Xu Xi finished the exam.
…
As a model high school in Yangcheng, the Normal High School Affiliated to the Normal University was directly designated as the college entrance examination venue.
The teaching building had been closed for the past three days, and the Education Bureau had arranged examination rooms. However, senior high school students could still stay in the library study room or reading room to review, creating a very solemn learning atmosphere.
For them, the dormitory is just a place to sleep, and there are basically no senior high school students staying there.
Shao Dandan originally wanted to be a loser, but after being tutored by Xu Xi in the first half month, he wanted to work hard, but now he was hit by a fact and wanted to be a loser again.
This world can use props from the script space.
That means that this is not a pure world.
There will be supernatural events, supernatural elements, super powers, and monsters.
Shao Dandan was stunned.
The specific thing starts with the day before yesterday when she discovered a beautiful necklace on Xu Xi. She thought that necklace was extraordinary at the time!
Xu Xi said it was the amulet her brother asked for from the Taoist temple, and wished her success in the exam.
But after Shao Dandan took a few glances, he felt that this thing really didn't look like a mortal thing, and was vaguely related to spiritual power.
But she didn't pay much attention to it at that time.
It wasn't until she was walking back to the dormitory at night - maybe because she had discussed too many ghost stories during self-study, that she looked around and took a few more glances at the amulet on Xu Xi's body, and finally couldn't help but open the player's manual.
She originally just opened it and looked at it for comfort.
In the end, she was shocked to find that the stack of basic purification talismans she prepared could actually be taken out!
Shao Dandan immediately returned to the dormitory, hid in the bathroom and tentatively took out the things...
Then she couldn't sleep all night.
The next morning, with dark circles under his eyes, Shao Dandan did not go to the study room. Instead, he lay on the bed and entered the script space, where he searched the forum for topics related to the changes in the world all day long.
Then that night, she couldn't sleep again.
The next day.
Shao Dandan, who had been thinking about his life for two days, lay peacefully on the bed.
"Dandan, aren't you going to the study room today either?"
Xu Xi stood beside him expressionlessly and asked.
The dormitory was empty early in the morning. Infected by the study atmosphere of the past few days, the other four people in the dormitory also rushed to the study room early to occupy their seats, all wanting to hug the Buddha's feet one last time.
Xu Xi didn't plan to go to the study room. She felt that the reading room was relatively empty and quiet, so she packed her things slowly.
Finally, she looked at the girl lying in bed in a daze.
Shao Dandan came to his senses, covered his sore eyes and said, "I'm so sleepy, I decided to take a nap today."
"Test the day after tomorrow." Xu Xi said.
"Ah, there are still two days." Shao Dandan said.
"You have made great progress in the past few days. If you work harder, you can study in one of the province's books." Xu Xi continued, with a calm but powerful tone.
"Really?!" Shao Dandan's eyes lit up.
But soon her enthusiasm was dampened by tiredness, and she turned over under the quilt: "Then let's work hard tomorrow."
When Xu Xi heard this, his eyes looked helpless.
She put the notebook and books into the canvas bag and said, "Then you can rest first. Also, do you need me to bring you food at noon?"
"Thank you for bringing me dinner."
Xu Xi responded and prepared to leave the dormitory.
But as soon as she opened the door, Shao Dandan, who was lying down and sleeping, suddenly climbed up and called to her: "Hey, wait a minute! Xiao Xi, which Taoist temple did you get that necklace from? I'll go ask for one tomorrow too, bless you."
Good luck with the exam!”
Xu Xi looked at her expressionlessly.
The girl's eyes were black and blue, almost like pandas, but her pupils were exceptionally bright and lively, and her burst of interest was suspicious.
In short, it seems to be for other purposes.
Xu Xi looked calm: "My brother went to Jiangzhou on a business trip last time, and stopped by the Chisong Taoist Temple there to ask for an amulet based on my horoscope, but it took some time to consecrate it, and it was only sent over the day before yesterday."
Shao Dandan was stunned when he heard this.
Jiangzhou? So far?
And the consecration actually takes so long?
Yes, no wonder she thinks that thing is extraordinary.
By the way, why did the painting style of this world suddenly turn to a weird and supernatural line?
Shao Dandan thought about life for two seconds, then lay back down again, covered himself with the quilt again and turned over to sleep: "Forget it, pretend I didn't say, good night."
Xu Xi answered, closed the door and went to the reading room.
On the way, she touched the beads hanging from the hollow lattice and thought about Shao Dandan's reaction just now.
…
…
After lying down all day, there are still two days left for the college entrance examination.
After receiving expressionless encouragement from Xu Xi again the next day, Shao Dandan picked up the book again and took the exam on June 7th.
On the day of the college entrance examination, Xu Shuo will definitely come.
However, he was not allowed to enter the examination room. He only met with Xu Xi outside the school and then returned to the studio.
The school gate, which used to be empty, is now surrounded by so many people and cars that buses can’t even get in!
Xu Xi has been living in the campus dormitory before the exam, and she will definitely not leave during the exam, so Xu Shuo's visit this time is really just for a formality.
Other students have parents to encourage them, so their own children must have them too!
Then do what you should do after the encouragement is over.
He has always been quite confident in Xu Xi's achievements.
After the college entrance examination was over, Xu Shuo drove to the Normal Middle School again, this time to pick someone up.
The final exam is over, and the next time he comes back to this school is the graduation ceremony, so this time Xu Shuo has to go to the dormitory to help pack his luggage.
Xu Xi's luggage is not much, at least there is nothing extra.
She also has very few clothes. She usually wears either a sports uniform, a flag-raising dress, or a class uniform at school. She has very few regular clothes.
Other items, except books, are books.
Like a nerd.
It seems not good to think of my sister like this... Xu Shuo packed his luggage and put away his complaints.
There are six beds in the dormitory. At this time, there are three other little girls and a parent who are also packing their things.
Xu Xi's things were quickly packed and she said goodbye to several roommates before leaving. After this separation, there will probably not be many opportunities to see each other except for the graduation ceremony next month.
"Xiao Xi, there is still so much time left in the summer vacation. I will go and play with you then!" Shao Dandan shouted to her.
"Okay." Xu Xi responded.
Most of the students in the Normal Middle School are locals from Yangcheng. The only difference lies in the geographical distance. Only a few students are admitted from outside.
Shao Dandan’s home is in Yangcheng, and she lives in Huangmu District, which is not far from downtown Yangcheng.
I heard that Xu Xi's brother has opened a script killing shop, so I would like to go and play it and see how it is different from the games in Script Space.
Why don't you just go play tomorrow?
After the college entrance examination, you should be wild!
…
"You have a good relationship with your roommate?"
Parked on the urban expressway, which is rarely congested during non-peak hours, Xu Shuo casually asked Xu Xi next to him while waiting for the traffic to open.
Xu Xi responded: "Well, I basically helped her with tutoring a month before the college entrance examination, and I became more familiar with her as I went back and forth. Of course, my review has not fallen behind. In fact, giving lectures to others is more suitable for consolidating my own knowledge."
After finishing the first half of the sentence, Xu Xi added the second half without stopping.
Xu Shuo nodded without saying anything. After the road ahead was clear, he immediately started the car and followed.
The car was quiet for a while.
Until Xu Xi couldn't help but say: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just think it would be nice for you to have more friends. By the way, what major are you planning to study in college?" Xu Shuo calmly changed the subject.
"Computer science and technology." Xu Xi said.
"...?"
Xu Shuo was stunned for a moment, and while waiting for the traffic light to turn green, he turned to look at the girl sitting in the passenger seat.
But there was no emotion on that paralyzed face.
He asked casually: "Why don't you choose liberal arts? And with your ability, you can continue to take the postgraduate entrance examination. When you graduate, you can become a teacher, or a translator. It is relatively easy and the salary is good."
"not interested."
"..."
"I'm interested in computers."
"..."
Silence, silence is Cambridge this morning.
This weird atmosphere continued until Xu Shuo sent Xu Xi home.
He went to pick him up in the morning, because he had work in the afternoon, and Xu Shuo never gave himself a full day off.
After unloading the luggage from the car, Xu Xi followed him upstairs and asked after a while: "Are you angry?"
"No, just choose what you like." Xu Shuo put the luggage in the living room.
No, he is obviously angry.
Xu Xi watched him put away his luggage with an expressionless face, then turned and walked towards the entrance, saying to her: "I'm going to the studio. I'll be back for dinner in the evening. I'll have lunch in the pressure cooker. Remember to eat."
Click, and the door closed.
Xu Xi paused and walked towards the balcony.
Not long after, she saw the young man walking out of the corridor, walking towards the silver-gray car temporarily parked on the roadside, opening the door, getting into the driver's seat, and driving away.
After the car completely disappeared from sight, Xu Xi withdrew his gaze, turned around and walked back to the living room.
Ding dong~
I received several messages on my phone.
She opened the social software and saw the message from Shao Dandan, as well as the message from Yang Lili, who accurately guessed that she had finished the exam and went home, and invited her to go out and have fun tomorrow.
What a coincidence, both of them wanted to play script killing.
