There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game Chapter 403 - 351: No One Survives
Xu Shuo returned to the studio in the afternoon and busied himself with processing docunts.
But those familiar with him could tell his mood wasn’t quite right.
"Didn’t he go to pick up his sister Xi today? Why is he still unhappy? Could it be that he feels the recent busy period has left him no energy to care for another person?"
Thinking this, Pei Sheng’s eyes lit up, "No problem, sister Xi can move in with , I’ll take care of her!"
Li Ziwen had no idea how much he’d drunk last night to co up with such an idea today; even one extra peanut wouldn’t cause such wild thoughts.
No matter who Xu Xi ends up marrying in the future, it definitely won’t be him!
After all, this guy thinks about hitting on pretty girls all day long. Every single girl in the studio who is single has been flirted with by him. If it weren’t for the rule against ssing around with office romance, there would probably be casualties.
Li Ziwen shook his head.
As he entered the office with a stack of docunts, he asked the somber-faced young man bluntly, "What’s wrong? Your work performance doesn’t seem very good today?"
Xu Shuo looked up at him, withdrew his gaze, and then looked at him again.
"Xu Xi wants to study computer science," said Xu Shuo.
"Then she will definitely beco the one and only belle of the computer science departnt," Li Ziwen raised an eyebrow, making a rare little joke.
But that was probably not the main point. It was well known that Xu Xi’s academic performance was very good, and given her demonstrated learning ability, going on to graduate studies or studying abroad in the future was completely viable.
Even if she didn’t pursue further studies, with her capabilities, she could have other more relaxed options.
In short, computer science was never under their consideration.
Li Ziwen said, "Look on the bright side, maybe Xi will go into high-end technology in the future. We are in a big information age, and computer science is actually in high demand. Plus, it’s an office job."
As for the downsides, probably just a higher risk of going bald.
Xu Shuo, propping up his chin, said, "I originally wanted her to apply for teacher education programs. After all, being a teacher cos with winter and sumr holidays, and she could get a better position after passing the grad school entrance exams."
"But you can’t make all the decisions for her."
"I even talked to her tutor about changing her choices, because she definitely wouldn’t apply to Beijing University."
"…" Li Ziwen.
Li Ziwen looked at the young man, who calmly spoke these words, sowhat speechless.
After a long sigh, he said, "Sotis, doing ’what’s best for you’ is not necessarily what the person really wants. She might accept it, but definitely wouldn’t be happy or grateful, even though she knows its for her own good."
Xu Shuo shifted his position and propped up his chin again, saying, "I know, but I think that arrangent is good for her future."
Li Ziwen spread his hands, "So do you want her to stay in Yang City with a smile or go to Beijing crying, and also always look at you with a stern face afterwards?"
Xu Shuo: "…"
Speaking of which, Xu Xi typically had a stern face.
The office fell quiet for a while.
After a while, Xu Shuo looked up at him again, "Well, you are quite the preacher."
Li Ziwen speechless: "…as long as you’re happy."
This guy clearly knew in his heart what the right choice was, but he still needed soone else to co over and ntion it again, just to deepen the conviction in his heart.
In short, fretting over trifles when there’s nothing better to do.
And it was that kind of obstinacy where he clearly understood, "I know this is not the right way to think, but unless soone lays it out for , I’ll continue to do so" – pure, unadulterated trifles.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have co to terms with it so quickly.
Of course, it would only be a matter concerning Xu Xi that could make him fret for so long.
Feeling a bit better, Xu Shuo picked up the docunts Li Ziwen had sorted to inspect.
The docunts were regarding office rental information; he had recently received two million and had promptly set Li Ziwen on the task of finding suitable office space.
The office building is now fully leased, and with no other studios moving out at the mont, they couldn’t expand on-site and had to consider relocating to a new place.
The final choice wasn’t far from here, a beautifully renovated new office building near the overpass, leasing half a floor for five years, and the remaining funds could go towards updating office equipnt and continuing to recruit technical staff.
After the decision was made, Li Ziwen left with the docunts.
Pei Sheng was waiting outside, and the mont he saw him co out, he asked curiously, "How did it go, what’s up with him?"
"Too idle," said Li Ziwen expressionlessly.
"...Ah."
...
The idle Xu Shuo was writing a new ga plan.
During his free ti in "Free Night", he tried playing a few gas, and one holographic shooting ga was particularly sensational!
Radiance Studio had never tried making a large MMORPG before, and with sufficient funds at the mont, Xu Shuo wanted to go big!
However, as he was writing the ga plan, his phone rang again. Enjoy more content from .Côm
People at work usually carry two phones, so if it was the personal phone ringing, it had nothing to do with work, but to be honest, Xu Shuo didn’t have many friends, and most of them were from the studio.
So, the question was, who was disturbing him at this ti?
Could it be Xu Xi coming to apologize?
Xu Shuo picked up his phone and saw that it was from the sa person who was still quite unfamiliar to him a few days ago.
Couldn’t the issue be discussed via ssage? Why make an earthly call?
"Hello?" Xu Shuo answered.
"Do you have ti recently?" Luo Kai on the other end got straight to the point, sounding rather serious.
"You haven’t left Yangcheng yet?" Xu Shuo asked back.
A few days ago, the "Green-skin Train" issue had already been investigated, and logically, director Luo Kai should have been off wandering sowhere else by now, collecting manuscripts. Xu Shuo hadn’t expected that he would still be in Yangcheng these past few days.
With a helpless sigh, Luo Kai said gloomily, "Don’t even ntion it. I had a train ticket for last night, would have woken up just in ti to arrive at Yu Zhou, but guess what ssage I received last night?"
"I’m not guessing."
"...As soon as I got on the train, I found out another one of my scripts had collapsed, so I had to fly back this morning."
Xu Shuo’s gaze shifted slightly upon hearing this.
If it was just a typical script issue, Luo Kai wouldn’t have needed to co back, unless it had sothing to do with Yangcheng.
...
In a hotel in Yangcheng.
Sitting on the sofa of the hotel room, Luo Kai wiped his face, looking extrely weary from the back-and-forth travel and his continuous investigation into the script issue.
It wasn’t until the afternoon that he had finally gathered the full picture, and feeling it was too risky to go alone, he opted to make a call for backup.
With a sigh, Luo Kai said, "Do you rember the village we passed by the last ti I took you to Yuhua Dam?"
"The village called ’Caotang Edge’?"
Xu Shuo had a bit of recollection.
After all, Luo Kai had made a trip to that village to collect a manuscript before they left.
So, was that the script that had collapsed?
Then thinking about it more closely, under what circumstances would a script collapse?
Luo Kai spoke with a heavy tone: "It’s not just my script that collapsed; I found out the real village has also t with disaster, not a single survivor!"
