Chapter 215 Discovery
After she asked, she realized that Lan Ze couldn't answer her question with simple movements, so she narrowed the scope and asked, "Are you here to find me in the real world?"
The door frame behind me suddenly made a sound.
She turned her head, looked at the door frame, and asked excitedly, "Can you come out of the game world?"
'Knock knock'.
There were two knocks on the door frame.
"No. Then, why can I see you?" Qiao Sui Sui frowned and thought, remembering Lan Ze's frame-dropping shadow when she first saw him. She asked, "So, are you still in the game world?"
'Knock knock'.
The answer is still no.
Not in the game world, nor in the real world
Qiao Suisui's breathing became tense. She asked, "You don't know where you are, but this place can see me and also lead to your world?"
'Ding'!
Qiao Suisui's eyes were filled with shock. She stretched out her arms and felt towards the door frame like a blind person, but she felt nothing.
She frowned and thought, Lan Ze could touch things, but she couldn't touch him.
Qiao Susu found paper and pen for Lan Ze and asked him to write down what he wanted to say.
After a while, the paper was covered with crooked words like a Taoist talisman. No one could figure out what it meant, but Qiao Sui Sui recognized it at a glance. It was interstellar text.
【you】
【good】
【Magic】
Qiao Suisui's nose felt sore and her eyes reddened slightly. She smiled and said, "I'm fine. How about you?"
A few intermittent words appeared on the paper again.
【I】
【think】
【you】
Qiao Suisui looked at the soft, flabby characters, finding it hard to imagine how he'd written them. She suddenly recalled Lan Ze, sitting by the library's French windows. His eyes were like a calm ocean, his brows always tinged with sadness and melancholy. But every time he smiled, it transformed into a spring breeze, blowing petals off the branches.
After going through so much, Qiao Suisui's anger and estrangement faded. Lan Ze was her first friend in that world, and she didn't want to let this memory lose its color.
Perhaps because he had waited for a long time without hearing Qiao Susu's response, words began to appear on the paper again.
【them】
【Waiting】
【you】
【I from】
[After a long time]
【come over】
Qiao Susu read out the words one by one and pieced them together into a sentence. When she read 'They have been waiting for you', she felt like she was punched in the head.
"You mean Luka and the others?"
A simple check mark appeared on the paper.
Qiao Susu suddenly felt that breathing was a little difficult. She thought that all this was just a game, just a setting. Once she logged out, they would become silent like an ordinary game. But Lan Ze said, "They have been waiting for her?"
She mustered up the courage to ask a question that had been on her mind many times but forced herself not to care about: "What happened after I left?"
This time, there were no words on the paper, but images.
A sword with a cross drawn on the back.
A snake with a rectangular object behind it.
A sun, followed by a bullet.
A pair of gloves with a pair of handcuffs drawn on the back.
In the end, a dragon appeared on the paper, but halfway through the drawing, the pen that was standing in the air suddenly fell onto the paper with a "pop", rolled under the table by inertia, and landed on the ground.
"Lan Ze?"
"Lan Ze."
Qiao Susu waited for more than ten minutes, but no trace appeared on the paper.
She held the paper and studied it for a long time, guessing and guessing, but only guessing some irrelevant developments. The sword represents Luka, but what is the cross? Did Luka get into trouble? The snake is undoubtedly Zongfang, but Qiao Suisui still can't figure out what the rectangular object is. The sun refers to Ash, but what does the bullet represent? Is he in danger? The gloves made her a little confused, but by the process of elimination, she knew it was most likely Carl. The handcuffs meant supervision and imprisonment, which meant that Carl must have been in trouble. The last dragon refers to Sang Yan, but Lan Ze did not finish drawing it.
Qiao Susu sat on the ground, hugged her knees, and her mood suddenly became heavy.
Lan Ze's sudden appearance completely disrupted Qiao Susu's mood.
In the following days, not only did Lin Xixi find her uneasy, but she also made several low-level mistakes during her internship at Zhenge.
"Baozi, what's wrong with you?" Lin Xixi leaned against her with a facial mask on and asked, "If you have anything on your mind, tell me."
Qiao Suisui's throat tightened. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "If, I mean if, your family and friends are all here, and your future career is likely to begin here, but there's a place you can't forget and care about very much, what would you choose?"
Lin Xixi raised a finger and said, "Adults don't make choices. I go there on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and come here on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. I rest on Sundays."
Qiao Suisui was immediately amused by her unreliability, "What if I can't have both?"
"It depends on what's most important to you. Take me for example. I want good skin, but I can't stop staying up late because it makes me happy. So I instinctively choose what makes me happy, even if it's only short-lived. So I pay the price of acne, but I accept it."
Lin Xixi sat cross-legged on the sofa, smoothing the mask on her face with her hands. Like a Zen master, she said seriously, "People are happiest when they have choices. As long as they don't regret their choices and dare to bear the consequences, they are great adults!"
After saying that, Lin Xixi didn't hear Qiao Susu say anything for a long time. She opened her eyes and looked over. She was startled to see her staring at her.
"What? You want to borrow money?"
Qiao Suisui looked at her and smiled, saying, "Do you know what your charm is?"
"What is it?"
“It seems unreliable, but sometimes it’s very open-minded.”
"Haha, I'm going to create a contrast!"
The two girls were laughing and joking on the sofa. Qiao Suisui lay on Lin Xixi's legs and said softly, "Thank you for being my friend. Xixi, you are the best person in the world."
Lin Xixi smiled and said, "Because you deserve it. You have always been shining in my eyes."
Perhaps this is the meaning of friends. No matter how many masks you wear in front of outsiders, you can always be yourself sincerely in front of others and not be afraid of not doing well enough.
Qiao Susu has always treasured this beauty in her heart and is reluctant to let it end.
the next day.
Qiao Susu made an appointment with Ye Xi.
"You said you wanted to go back to your save file?" Ye Xi was a little surprised.
Qiao Suisui nodded: "I don't want to reopen."
Ye Xi thought for a moment, adjusted his glasses, and said, "That's impossible. Once a player logs out, the world they're in will automatically lock, and the game ending cannot be changed."
Ye Xi saw Qiao Suisui's eyes dim. She took a sip of coffee, smiled at her, and said, "But I like to challenge the impossible."
Look at the picture, who can guess what Lan Ze drew? The answer will be revealed in the game world tomorrow. Please vote. Sorry for the trouble. I don’t have anything to show. I will give you some sweet chapters later.
