There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game

The next morning, after resting early the day before, Xu Shuo woke up naturally, feeling refreshed and the mental exhaustion from the last script was completely gone.

He recovered so quickly that he even thought about going to the new script immediately.

After all, the world could evolve with mutations, and he wanted to improve his strength as much as possible, as well as earn more performance points to buy props.

Speaking of which, didn't Hong Rao arrange for him a script that could train his body and improve his combat power?

Oh, he had rejected it and postponed it, right?

Then it's fine.

Xu Shuo still wanted to experience the sense of deduction brought by "Explosive Amusement Park", mainly because he felt that he had read too many spoiler scripts before, causing his thinking to become rigid and his reaction to events to slow down.

He felt this deeply in "Free Night".

This was not good for his growth later on.

Xu Shuo planned his schedule clearly and headed to the studio in a good mood in the morning, only to feel even better after seeing the game data.

But after he finished his work in the morning, an unfamiliar phone call came through at noon.

Actually, it wasn't entirely unfamiliar.

It was just that Xu Shuo stared at the phone number for two seconds before he realized who it was.

No help for it, they weren't familiar, and they hadn't contacted each other for over a thousand years, so it was already pretty good that he could recall who this guy was so quickly.

Xu Shuo answered the call, "Hello? Hi."

The other side paused, "Bro, why have you suddenly become so polite? Did you play a long script?"

Xu Shuo: "..."

But that initial greeting was just a pleasantry; Luo Kai's voice immediately became serious, subtly revealing gravity, "Bro, I've got good news and bad news, which do you want to hear first?"

Xu Shuo tilted his head and thought, "The bad news."

"Why do you want to hear the bad news first?"

"Forget it, I'm hanging up."

"Hey hey, don't hang up, the bad news is pretty significant. Our world might evolve with elemental variants, but this kind of evolution is under the premise of being eroded by the Abyss," Luo Kai said gravely. "So, our world has been eroded by the Abyss."

"Oh."

"... How come you don't seem surprised at all?"

"Oh oh oh!"

"You're being too fake, bro!"

Luo Kai seemed to have realized something, and he spoke indignantly, "We agreed before that we'd inform each other if there was any news, but you already knew and didn't tell me, right?"

In Luo Kai's eyes, the other person had a mentor and many powerful props, so even if he wasn't a second-generation gamer, he probably had some backing and might have obtained answers from his seniors long ago.

Only he, the big idiot, was excited to come over to share the intelligence!

"I rushed over to tell you as soon as I found out about the news, but you're being really unfair!"

The more Luo Kai thought about it, the angrier he became!

Especially when he remembered that he had actually been freeloaded for so long using the other's script, but just as he was preparing to complain some more, the person on the other end hung up.

Luo Kai: "..."

After a while, his player's handbook received a message.

The other party recommended him a player's business card, with the explanation accompanying it: "The Green-skin Train" incident was resolved by this person."

...

When he heard the bad news, Xu Shuo roughly guessed what the good news would be.

After the previous visit to Yuhua Dam to investigate the red viaduct resulted in little gain, Luo Kai said he would stay in Yangcheng for a while longer, probably intending to continue investigating this matter.

But since the other party had already discovered the signs of the world being eroded by the Abyss, the good news, in turn, should be that the Abyss Rift had been resolved.

Ironically, he had just learned about it yesterday.

He couldn't blame Xu Shuo for not informing him, after all, he hadn't even thought of him.

After casually selling off Themis's information, Xu Shuo temporarily put aside the issue of the Script Space and focused on his work in the present world.

A studio needs to maintain traffic and can only continue to release new games, "City of Mist" has a dedicated operations department managing it after its launch, and the technical department continues to develop new versions and new games.

As the studio's only game designer, Xu Shuo was indeed very busy.

And there was another matter quickly approaching.

His break had been long, and although Xu Shuo really wanted to play scripts sooner, he looked at the time, and the high school exams were just a few days away.

Therefore, he decided to wait until Xu Xi finished the exams to proceed.

...

As a model high school in Yangcheng, Normal University Affiliated High School was directly designated as a college entrance examination venue.

The teaching building was closed three days before, and the Education Bureau set up the examination venue, but the senior students could still stay in the library's study room or reading room for review, creating an extremely serious academic atmosphere.

For them, the dormitory had become just a place to sleep, and there were hardly any seniors lingering there.

Shao Dandan originally wanted to slack off, but she was pulled into cramming by Xu Xi in the past half a month and just when she wanted to give it her all, she was hit by a fact that made her want to slack off again.

Props from the Script Space could be taken out into this world.

This meant that it wasn't a purely authentic world.

Supernatural incidents would occur, the supernatural elements would appear, there would be superpowers, and there would be monsters.

Shao Dandan was stupefied.

The specifics had to start from the day before yesterday when she noticed a pretty necklace on Xu Xi that caught her attention. She felt it didn't look like an ordinary item!

Xu Xi said it was an amulet her brother had gotten from a Taoist temple, hoping it would bring her luck in her exams.

But after Shao Dandan took a few looks, she felt that this thing didn't seem like a common object, and it vaguely had something to do with spiritual power.
