Xu Shuo used the remaining vegetables to make another lunch for his sister, and then continued to slump back on the sofa, rubbing his brows tiredly.
However, after leaving the script to kill this time, I was not as tired as last time.
It seems that entering that game world will indeed consume mental energy. No wonder there is a twenty-four-hour time limit in the player's manual. If someone is crazy about playing the game, they may die suddenly in it.
Xu Shuo summoned the player's manual, and after flipping through the pages of "Rainy Night Villa" and "The Fifth Hospital", there were words "Recessing, the next theater will open after 23:14".
He worked until the early hours of the morning without feeling energetic. After falling asleep unknowingly, he slept until noon. As a result, he was directly involved in the countdown game in his sleep.
It seems that after this, I still need to regulate my work and rest time.
Xu Shuo yawned and got up to wash up.
After he finished fixing himself and sat at the dining table, Xu Xi glanced at him and said lightly: "You better not make yourself so tired next time, otherwise I won't be able to pay the rent for two bedrooms and one living room."
"Don't worry, you won't die suddenly." Xu Shuo was used to his sister's hidden poisonous tongue. He took a bite of potato shreds and asked, "When will you go back to school tomorrow?"
"I have to study in the evening and go back after lunch."
"I'll see you off then."
"Aren't you busy again these two days?"
"That's right, I won't give it away."
Xu Xi: "..."
The dining table quickly became quiet, with only the sound of dishes and chopsticks touching each other.
Xu Xi didn't talk much and ate slowly. When Xu Shuo quickly finished his lunch and was about to rush to the company, she looked over again.
That kind of probing gaze was as penetrating as if you wanted to see through Xu Shuo's appearance and his inner being.
The girl's silent gaze is very stressful and makes her look weird and unapproachable, so except for one best friend, she basically has no other friends.
Before Xu Shuo went out, he suddenly looked back and said, "By the way, there are a lot of things going on in the company today. I might not be back at night."
Xu Xi nodded: "Xiao Li and I are playing outside."
After the two briefly explained their itinerary, the sound of closing the door was heard at the entrance. Xu Xi lowered his head. It was hard to tell what he was thinking, but he was slightly discouraged.
I wanted to ask just now, but I didn't.
Why is my brother acting weird lately? He's starting to have an uncomfortable aura about him.
…
Xu Shuo drove downstairs of the office building and yawned all the way to his studio.
As soon as he entered the company, Pei Sheng's mean voice rang out: "I worry every day whether my boss will die suddenly."
The studio has standard working hours from 9 to 5, but because we are a small entrepreneurial team of six people, everyone is familiar and comfortable with each other, so it doesn’t really matter if we have such working hours.
Just get your work done.
Xu Shuo had already sent over the game framework he built last night before he came. At this moment, several other people were busy designing new apps, and they just said hello when they saw him coming in.
"You're the only one with free time, aren't you?" Xu Shuo complained to him, then sat down in his seat and opened his laptop.
"How is that possible? I'm busy with offline work. I've already contacted the decoration company and gaming equipment for you, and the recruitment information has been sent out." Pei Sheng counted what he was doing.
At this time, Li Ziwen came over with the project plan he had prepared last night. Listening to the things he listed, he looked at Xu Shuo and asked, "Should we do it offline and online together? In this case, our funds may be not enough?"
Xu Shuo frowned slightly and said, "The studio's budget will be a little tight. I will transfer some more from my own account when the time comes."
Li Ziwen nodded and said nothing more.
Although on the surface it is an entrepreneurial team of six young guys, in fact the boss is still Xu Shuo, because he was the one who started this studio.
There are five of them left, strictly speaking, they are all employees who are helping this part-time worker.
Only Pei Sheng, a rich and powerful second-generation man who was robbed of a wave of funds by Xu Shuo, survived the most difficult period and eventually gradually formed a complete six-person studio.
However, several other people are majoring in computer science or game-related fields, and only Pei Sheng, the rich second generation, has become the simplest studio salesman.
Because letting him out has a bonus effect. After all, Young Master Pei comes to discuss business with you in person. Should you or should you not?
As for why Pei Sheng was so willing, in addition to being convinced by Xu Shuo, Xu Shuo once saved his life when he went out to wander. This is why the Pei family allowed him to stay in this small studio. reason.
"There is no way to repay the kindness of saving my life, I can only pledge myself to you!"
Pei Sheng said coquettishly next to him, and said very excitedly: "Boss, don't we lack a good script now? I came up with one last night. The story is that when the hero saves the beauty, the heroine ——”
"Rejected." Xu Shuo didn't wait for him to finish, interrupted a little irritably, and said, "Go to Ziwen and say, don't bother me with my work."
Li Ziwen is responsible for project design, and script screening is also his task.
Hearing this, Pei Sheng looked at the unsmiling young man with glasses next to him and felt bored for a moment.
…
The surroundings finally calmed down. After Xu Shuo was busy working for a while, he took a short break and drank some tea, then opened the player's manual and read it.
This manual has a forum function, and sometimes it can be used to kill time during breaks.
During this period of time, Xu Shuo found that he had a few more fans, reaching double digits, but there was still no information there.
So, why do we have such a thing as fans?
As a script-killing system that looks like a reincarnation space, it is designed just like the real entertainment industry, with a post discussion function, as well as a fan and follow function.
After he entered the "square", he casually browsed the posts above. Many people were discussing the inexplicable removal of the script of "The Fifth Hospital", and judging from how popular this matter was, it seemed that they could still talk about it for several days. The sky looks like.
The people here also like to eat melons and type on the keyboard just like the netizens.
There is absolutely no difference from reality.
I just don’t know if it’s possible for the people who played the same scripted killing game with him before to meet in the real world?
However, with billions of people around the world, this probability is not estimated to be too high.
Xu Shuo was thinking about it while scrolling through the posts at random. Suddenly, he saw a reply that was gradually gaining popularity.
【at the scene! I was really there! I played the patient, and the script-killing timing chaos really nearly drove me crazy! What I am playing is not a game, it is a game playing on me! 】
Attached to this reply was a screenshot of the script in which he participated. In the screenshot, the script of "The Fifth Hospital" shows the word "Blocked", which means that he has indeed participated.
Although the one who participated may not be the scene where the bug occurred, at least he did play the script.
The layers on this floor have already reached hundreds of layers.
Xu Shuo raised his eyebrows slightly. Did he really meet a player with the same script?
He opened the reply and looked at the reply from Zhonglou. The excited player briefly described how he, as a patient, was tortured to death by the hospital - he could not even complete the task.
Among the replies from other people, some were criticizing him, while others were doubtful.
Xu Shuo took the trouble to read every reply, and gradually clarified some things.
In the script "Fifth Hospital", in the past participation process, the number of players was fixed at five, and the main tasks were also five. There were no problems here.
The key point of this scenario is that players who oppose each other must complete more than 50% of the main mission together before Dr. Chen Chu kills Patient No. 13, and the game countdown is triggered first.
Then the time in the hospital will start over again, everything will return to the starting point, and the previously completed tasks will be cleared. The next half hour will be the time for the final duel between the players.
Very simple, right?
It’s just like playing through the game!
The most difficult part is how to make players who are targeting each other work together to complete half of the main mission without knowing it, and trigger a game countdown that will not be restarted by time.
But the players of Spray Master said the most crucial thing: the Fifth Hospital has no time to mess up this script!
Xu Shuo rubbed his chin, thinking of Luo Kun, who was going crazy or not. Moreover, as an NPC, he also discovered that the world's time was reincarnating, and was still secretly manipulating the time.
Could it be that that guy is the bug in this script?
It was indeed quite a bug. Poor patient No. 8 ran out of the hospital countless times, only to be pulled back again by Luo Kun's time confusion.
No wonder he was so angry.
Xu Shuo looked at the floor leader who replied with some amusement.
He had already guessed from the other person's words that the person who claimed to be a player in that scene played the role of Patient No. 8, Tao Tao.
The little girl killed by Dr. Chu.
Xu Shuo conveniently clicked into the other party's personal panel. However, the information that could be browsed seemed to be a bit limited. For example, the most important thing was that the player's skill props and deduction points could not be viewed.
On the contrary, "participating in plays" is fine.
Among the plays that this person has participated in, there is no play in "The Fifth Hospital". It seems that other players cannot see the blocked play.
However, this player has seven other scripts he has participated in lined up.
Looks like an old player?
But why did he act so silly and sweet in the hospital?
Xu Shuo tentatively clicked on a script in which the other party participated. Soon, the player page popped up and the script "Dancer in the Dark" began to play.
It has familiar weird background music plus character drawings and introductions. After the opening credits, a gloomy dance studio appears on the screen.
Can players watch participating scripts at will?
Xu Shuo smiled with interest, adjusted his office chair slightly, put himself in a comfortable position, and then stared at the sky and started watching the movie.
Movies that don't need screens.
