"Ah sneeze!"
Lin Mo was huddled on the sofa studying his talent, and suddenly he sneezed violently. The little girl rubbed her nose, missing her gentle and beautiful mother.
"Hmm... 1,000 credits," the little girl thought silently in her mind. "That means you can go home for 100 hours? Even if you count all of them, it will only take less than five days!"
Lin Mo planned to ask "Sister Li" detailed questions about going home first.
As soon as the door to the room was pushed open, the little girl didn't even open her eyes to look at the road. She yawned and walked forward, and then she slammed into a hard chest.
Before the little girl could cry out in pain, she subconsciously backed away quickly to widen the distance between the two.
"Uh-huh, sorry sorry!"
"Is Miss Lin okay?"
The two voices sounded almost at the same time. Lin Mo looked up in surprise and saw the man whom the "Master Sanhe" had just called "Old Xiao" standing in front of him. His tall figure actually looked a little... …at a loss?
What surprised the little girl even more was not the sudden appearance of the other party, but the translucent progress bar above the other party's head.
[Xiao Chi: Favorability 2 points]
It was obvious that he hadn't arrived just now.
At this moment, Lin Mo suddenly understood the power of her innate skill.
It’s just like a strategy game!
However, the little girl still had some brains and shook her head seriously without showing too much excitement.
"It's okay, um...Mr. Xiao"
Lin Mo asked tentatively
"If I want to go home, can I use up all my credit points to exchange for time to go home?"
As soon as Lin Mo finished speaking, the man with a calm face suddenly frowned and became serious.
"Of course not, Miss Lin, you haven't used your credit points yet, have you?"
The little girl shook her head quickly. The man was slightly relieved when he saw this, and then patiently explained.
"Credit points are our currency in this world. Every 10 credit points you spend can return you to Blue Star for one hour. Similarly, you also need to spend credits to survive in the player base, but it is much cheaper than the cost of returning to Blue Star. It is about 1 hour per day. 30 credit points are automatically deducted every month. If your balance is 0 when the system automatically deducts credit points, you will often be immediately assigned to extremely difficult task time and escape death."
The man's expression was very serious when he spoke. Lin Mo also understood the horror of the matter and nodded quickly to express that he would not do anything stupid.
"In addition, there is a ball icon in the lower left corner of the system panel, which is the option to return to Blue Star; there is a translucent coin icon in the lower right corner, which is a shopping mall, where you can use credits to buy props. And we as Players need to spend 100 credits to extract copies every time they enter the game. I heard that in other normal player bases, credits can also be used for online prop transactions between players in different bases or guilds."
Having said this, Xiao Chi couldn't help but sigh.
"But we can't communicate with the outside world here, and the player base is small, so transactions are conducted directly face-to-face. Some people will use this to make money and kill people. Ms. Lin should be more careful."
Lin Mo nodded obediently. At the same time, the little girl was a little confused - why did she feel that this person had a stronger sense of justice than others?
Is it an illusion?
But she was too lazy to think about it now.
"Then I'll go home first, and then I can talk to you in detail about the next copy when I come back, okay?"
"Well, of course." Xiao Chi looked at the little girl's bright eyes and was speechless for a moment. "By the way, the time flow rate here is the same as that of Blue Star, but we have no way to talk about the thriller game with people outside. You'd better find a better reason to tell your family."
"Because based on our experience, if the player's family and friends are aware of it, they are likely to be picked up by the thriller game."
The little girl's expression instantly became serious.
"I'll remember it, thank you Mr. Xiao."
The man nodded and said no more.
The little girl did not continue to speak, quickly opened the system panel and clicked the blue star button in the lower left corner.
[Ding——Please select the number of hours to return to Blue Star]
"24 hours"
[Player Lin Mo has chosen the return time and will be teleported immediately. 】
Lin Mo only felt a sudden flash in her head, and she was back at home in the blink of an eye. My gentle and virtuous mother is still baking small cakes in the kitchen, and there is a fragrance from time to time. My father is still at the company and has not come back. Everything is normal and warm.
The little girl suddenly couldn't control her eyes and turned sour.
It was only then that Lin Mo felt a strong sense of horror.
A weird translation with a faceless shadow, a murderous blood doll with a terrifying face, scheming player teammates, a player base closed by thick fog, and endless dungeons with no hope of leaving at a glance——
The little girl slumped down on the big soft sofa, holding the stuffed doll in her arms, and began to cry silently.
Don't let your mother find out there is anything strange about you, don't cry, or your mother will have random thoughts.
She shouldn't be able to hide it from her father, but in this situation, this terrible thing, even if her father is a business giant, what can he do...
After trying to calm down, the little girl took a few bites of the apple on the coffee table and then mumbled.
"Mom, what are you going to eat tonight? Dad, is he coming back to eat?"
"What do you want to eat, little baby? The little cake baked by mom will be ready soon!"
The mother's smiling response came from the kitchen.
"Xiaobao, are you hungry so soon? Can you go help mommy call and ask when daddy will come home?"
"Uh-huh!"
The little girl nodded quickly and ran to the kitchen to take out her cell phone from her mother's apron pocket.
There is no way, if you use your own mobile phone to make calls, your workaholic dad will ignore you. He will only answer your mother's calls while working.
Sure enough, the call was answered instantly.
"Dad, Mom asked if you would come back for dinner tonight."
Lin Mo quickly spoke to preemptively strike.
Lin Ye frowned slightly: "Why didn't my wife tell me in person? Give the phone to Weiwei."
"Dad," the little girl walked out of the kitchen with the phone in her hand, her voice suddenly became low, "I will be away for a while tomorrow morning. Please comfort mom and don't let her think."
The nice male voice on the phone suddenly paused, and then a deep voice came: "As my daughter, Lin Ye, any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem, so don't do stupid things."
The little girl bit her lip and whispered, "No, don't think too much. I just... want to go out and play..."
The little girl couldn't speak any more, her tears slowly overflowed, and her voice was choked with sobs.
"I'm going to play games... don't think about it, don't say it in front of your mother, this is very important..."
There was no sound on the other side of the phone. After a long time, the man's low response came: "Tell Weiwei that I have finished my work today and can go home immediately. Xiaomo, since you want to hide Weiwei's secrets, don't show any flaws."
"Um"
Lin Mo wiped his face and returned the phone to his mother.
Fortunately, her beautiful mother is a fool, otherwise it would be really difficult to lie to her.
Lin Mo was now on the verge of emotional collapse.
