Chapter 215 Discovery
After she asked, she realized that Lan Ze couldn't answer her question with simple actions, 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?"

'Tuk-tuk.'

There were two knocks on the door frame.

"No. Then, why can I see you?" Qiao Suisui frowned and thought, remembering the shadow of Lan Ze when she first saw him, and asked, "So you are still in the game world now?"

'Tuk-tuk.'

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?"

'Duk'!
Qiao Suisui was shocked. 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, there was something crooked on the paper, like a Taoist spell. No one could figure out what it meant, but Qiao Sui Sui recognized it at a glance. It was interstellar writing.

【you】

【it is good】

【？】

Qiao Suisui's nose felt sore and her eyes were slightly red. 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 those soft words and found it hard to imagine how he wrote them. She suddenly recalled Lan Ze sitting in front of the French window in the library. His eyes were like a calm sea, and there was always a hint of sadness and melancholy between his brows. But every time he smiled, it would turn into a gust of wind in spring, blowing off the petals.

After going through so much, Qiao Suisui's anger and estrangement faded away. Lan Ze was her first friend in that world, and she didn't want to let this memory lose its color.

Perhaps because I had waited for a long time without hearing Qiao Susu's response, words began to appear on the paper again.

【them】

【Keep waiting】

【you】

【I from】

[After a long time]

【come over】

Qiao Susu read out the words one by one and put 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 a normal game. But Lan Ze said, "They have been waiting for me?"
She mustered up the courage to ask a question that had been on her mind many times but she had 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 on the back. A snake with a rectangular object on the back.

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", and rolled under the table by inertia and fell to the ground.

"Lan Ze?"

"Lanze."

Qiao Susu waited for more than ten minutes, but there was no trace 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 gotten into 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 on her with a facial mask on and asked, "What's on your mind? Tell me."

Qiao Suisui's throat tightened, and after hesitating for a while, she said, "If, I mean if, your family and friends are all here, and your future career is likely to start here, but there is a place that you always miss 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 Monday, Wednesday and Friday, come here on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, and rest on Sunday."

Qiao Suisui was immediately amused by her unreliability, "What if I can't have both?"

"It depends on what's most important to you. 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 short-lived. So I pay the price of acne, but I accept it."

Lin Xixi sat cross-legged on the sofa, stroking the mask on her face with her hands. Like a Zen master, she said seriously: "When people have choices, they are actually the happiest. As long as you don't regret your choices and dare to bear the consequences, you will be a great adult!"

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 is 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 beautiful moment in her heart and was 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 it."

Ye Xi thought for a while, adjusted his glasses, and said, "This is impossible. Once the player logs out, the world they are in will be automatically locked, and the ending of the game 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.
