There is indeed no change in the affordable shopping mall and the surrounding area. What it was like yesterday is still the same today, but there must be some hidden subtle differences between fantasy and reality.
Before Xu Shuo bought groceries, he went to the underground garage to take a look.
Then I discovered that the electric cars parked in the passage at Exit B were all gone. Even the entrance to the passage was clean, and the walls that were originally yellow and peeling were now white.
Well, maybe that's something different.
It can be seen that other places in this area will not be exactly the same as before. As expected, Themis's illusion can only be similar, not exactly the same.
Xu Shuo went to the vegetable market, opened the player's manual on the way, and replied to all the messages from the little red dot.
Last night, in addition to real friends calling him, Luo Kai not only called him, but also sent several player messages in a row.
Xu Shuo gave him a brief explanation of what happened last night, including the abyss rift, the trial, and the fact that the Hetai intersection area was now an illusion.
The only hidden problem is that everything is left to Themis!
Xu Shuo: [Look for him, he did it. 】
Luo Kai: […]
Luo Kai lit a cigarette with vicissitudes of life.
…
Xu Shuo bought two meals and returned home. Sure enough, he had just finished breakfast at 10:30 and was preparing to make lunch at 11:30.
But if three meals are not taken on time, the entire biological clock will be disrupted.
So even if you’re not hungry yet, you still have to feed me!
However, Xu Shuo only cooked two simple dishes for lunch, and neither of them ate much.
"There's nothing to do this afternoon. You can read a book at home. If you're bored, you can go to the studio to study with Ziwen. Don't go anywhere else for the time being." Xu Shuo said while washing the dishes.
"What are you doing today?" Xu Xi asked curiously.
"I slept too late yesterday. I will take a lunch break later and sort out the studio's recent plans."
"What time did you come back last night?"
"It's about half past eleven. There's a traffic jam in Huangmu District. When I came back, I saw you lying on the sofa sleeping." Xu Shuo looked at her calmly: "Didn't I tell you to go to bed early if you couldn't hold it any longer? It’s easy to catch a cold just lying in the living room.”
Xu Xi paused: "I'm sorry..."
She lowered her head slightly, rubbed her phone in her hand, repeatedly pressed to turn on the screen and then turned it off again.
"I'm going to take a nap first. Remember to tell me if you want to go out."
"good."
…
After washing the dishes, Xu Shuo went back to his room, closed the door, picked up his cell phone on the desk and looked at it.
There was a text message on his phone that was obviously not sent by him. The time was just after he fell into coma, and the person who replied to the text message was Xu Xi.
At that time, Xu Xi must have been attracted by the explosion in the mall, so she sent a text message asking.
The person who helped him answer was also very clever in his words. He probably discovered that he was hiding Xu Xi's actions, and also guessed Xu Xi's mentality when sending text messages, so he used the reason why he left before to help him extract some information from the incident. Took it out.
To sum it up, it's not like the straight-forward Themis could edit the words.
So when he lost consciousness, a third person appeared at the scene?
But after Themis retold it, there was no information about this person.
Xu Shuo frowned slightly, and while thinking about who the person was most likely to be, he controlled the phone system and changed the lock screen password.
Then, he lay down on the bed and found a comfortable position, closed his eyes and entered the script space.
…
It just so happened that while Themis was away, I refreshed the latest notebook time at home, and then went to try my new power and replenish my strength.
Xu Shuo sat on the sofa and first sent a message to Hongrao.
However, this time he did not wait for the other party's immediate reply. Xu Shuo opened the forum again and browsed the posts for a while.
It always takes a very fast time to check the posts. When he came to his senses, more than half an hour had passed and Hongrao had not replied yet.
Um?
Is she working on a script?
No, Hongrao seemed to have said before that she would never enter into a script before teaching a student.
Xu Shuo sent a curious inquiry, but there was still no response for a long time.
Judging from the situation, she must be busy with other more important things, otherwise she wouldn't even bother to take a look at the little red dot in the upper right corner.
In this case……
While the instructor is away, secretly do some random things.
According to his observations, most of the random scripts had elements of transformation, and the concentration of the abyss was quite high, which was just suitable for opening up player permissions and allowing him to try out the new skills he had mastered.
So this time Xu Shuo didn't go to earn resources, he simply wanted to get familiar with the abilities he currently possesses.
Originally, he wanted Hongrao to arrange a script or simply take him to the abyss battlefield. After all, he was embarrassed to have dovetailed her so many times before, but since he can't call her out now...
It’s only natural that it’s random, right?

【You have entered the theater. 】
[This script-killing project "To My Lovely Angel" is about to begin, so players please be prepared. 】
Xu Shuo opened his eyes and looked at the place while listening to the preface of the script in his mind.
Just when he was wondering if this was a divine script and whether he had run into the wrong script, his main mission was immediately refreshed.
[Main mission: No children are allowed to leave the orphanage. 】
Why is an orphanage so strict?
Xu Shuo opened the character information and looked at it.
However, the next moment, he suddenly turned his head, his dark pupils staring closely at the navy blue curtains of the office.
"Come out." Xu Shuo said coldly.
"..." There was no movement over there.
"Children will be punished if they don't behave well." Xu Shuo's mouth curled up slightly and his voice was extremely gentle.
After a while, the curtains shook slightly.
A little girl who looked seven or eight years old timidly poked her head out from behind the curtain and whispered, "I'm sorry, Mr. Dean, I didn't mean to hide here."
Xu Shuo looked at her expressionlessly, then stood up and walked over, squatting down to be eye level with the little girl.
As he approached, the little girl shrank her neck even more in fear, clutching the curtain tightly with her two little hands, and she looked a little embarrassed.
Xu Shuo smiled and said softly: "Then why were you hiding here before?"
"I was playing hide-and-seek with Elizabeth. I...I hid here." The little girl lowered her head and did not dare to look directly at him.
"That's right, but you can't just come into the dean's office, you know that, right?" Xu Shuo raised his hand and touched her head.
"Yes...I'm sorry, I'm leaving now!"
The little girl quickly dodged his stretched out hand and threw open the curtains with a face full of fear. The thick navy blue curtains swayed slightly, and the next moment she disappeared behind them.
Xu Shuo paused with his hands in mid-air.
Having been in so many Abyss scripts, it's rare to see something so frightened that you can't wait to leave him.
Well, he is indeed a cute child.
…
[Where do the abandoned children live? 】
【Live in an orphanage where you will never lack delicious food, fun playmates, and happiness. 】
[They are angelic children, and the benevolent orphanage will shelter these cute little guys forever, as long as they don't want to leave this place. 】
[Because they are too dangerous to the outside world. 】

------Digression-----
Rule setting = mechanism book.
As I said before, the next book is a rules book, but I have done a part of the main plot first, and now I will continue with the book.
Another comment: This story was inspired by the video "If these horror movie villains all lived in the same orphanage," it would be very interesting (laughs).
