Chapter 986: Chapter 793: If the World Were to End

Xu Shuo waited for the two of them to leave the Star Tower.

He slowly stepped out of the beam of light.

After all, it would be awkward to run into them here.

Since Xia Migia had already guessed his problem, and they had been through two scripts together, if they ran into him in person, she would definitely recognize him.

So it’s better to avoid it.

Xu Shuo opened his message list and saw that Luo Kai hadn’t contacted him; he seemed to still be battling knowledge in the Star Tower.

But when he came to his house in the morning,

Luo Kai mentioned he would stay in the Script Space for a long period until he finished the level five assessment script, so unless Earth exploded, there was no need to contact him.

And if he suddenly died during this time,

that would mean he had failed the assessment.

Xu Shuo did not disturb him and instead just opened the message list to send a message to Hong Rao.

Xu Shuo: [Do you have anything else planned today? I’m going to leave Script Space now and come back tomorrow.]

It took about two minutes for Hong Rao to reply.

Hong Rao: [You should know how to get to the Star Guild by now, right?]

Xu Shuo: [I know.]

Hong Rao: [Then I won’t take you there tomorrow.]

Xu Shuo: [Okay.]

Hong Rao: [Study well during this time, and make sure to let me know before you enter the script. Don’t go in on your own again. Since you’re level three now, randomly entering a script could be… (following is the part Xu Shuo was too lazy to read).]

Xu Shuo: [1]

After replying quickly, Xu Shuo closed the messages.

He had never seen someone like Hong Rao who could repeat the same thing so many times!

She repeated it until Xu Shuo could recite it backwards!

Scary!

…

The process of leaving the Star Guild wasn’t as complicated as coming here.

First, open the Player’s Handbook, click to return to your personal space, and then exit the entire Script Space to return to the real world.

Xu Shuo opened his eyes.

He picked up his phone next to him to check the time, then left the room and glanced at Luo Kai lying on the extra bed in the living room.

Luo Kai had arranged the extra bed himself.

After all, Xu Shuo’s place was a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment.

So there was no extra room for him to use, and since he insisted on staying here for the level five assessment, he had to add a bed in the living room himself.

It was four in the afternoon.

The two of them had entered the Script Space in the morning and hadn’t even had lunch, immersed in learning for over ten hours.

But Xu Shuo didn’t feel hungry.

He changed clothes for going out, grabbed his car keys, and left the house.

…

Xu Shuo went to pick someone up.

Because the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday started today.

This time, the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday is combined with National Day, as the two holidays are close. National Day is on Sunday, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is the next Wednesday.

Let’s not talk about how the office workers are having their holidays.

Anyway, students start their holiday this Sunday and will have eight days off until the next Sunday. As for this Saturday, it’s a make-up class day.

And Xu Shuo’s studio simply followed the legal holidays.

Even if there’s no holiday, with everyone in a restless mood, no one would be in the state to work seriously.

So it’s better to wait and get through this period first.

…

Yangcheng Normal University Donghe Campus.

There was a bit of a traffic jam due to the holiday, so when Xu Shuo arrived at the school, Xu Xi was already waiting by the roadside with a black cat in her arms.

And with her was also a vibrant red-haired woman.

“Hello~ You must be Xi’s brother, right?”

The red-haired woman smiled broadly, leaning towards the window to greet.

But Xu Xi didn’t seem intent on introducing her, she expressionlessly placed a small suitcase in the trunk and then got in the front passenger seat.

The black cat jumped into the car, found a spot on the back seat, and settled down, glaring at the woman.

Xu Shuo also turned his head to look at the red-haired woman.

Then he curled his lips slightly: “Yes, that’s me.”

Angela immediately got more excited: “I’m the librarian at this school. Xi has been studying diligently in the library. I’ve often heard she has an older brother, and today I finally get to meet you!”

Xu Shuo smiled warmly: “You’re just meeting me now? I’ve known you for quite some time.”

Angela paused slightly.

Then Xu Shuo picked up his phone, pulled up a photo, and stuck it to the window.

Angela: “…”

The photo was of Angela and Pei Sheng on a date.

“Miss Angela, I’ve heard of you.”

Xu Shuo chuckled, put away his phone, and drove off.

Angela stood in place, watching him leave.

Then she muttered softly: “There’s no way he’d be so wary of me just for this, surely Los must have secretly spoken ill of me! Damn it!”

She stomped her foot in anger, ignoring those nearby trying to cozy up to her, and turned around to head back to the school.

In a flash, she appeared at Los’s place.

Luofu was watching TV in the living room.

Seeing Angela, she happily greeted: “Angela, you’re here again!”

“Los is at a meeting, right?”

Angela asked as she skillfully entered the bedroom.

Then she began rummaging through the drawers.

But unfortunately, she found nothing this time.

Luofu commented on the noises from the room: “Angela, stop looking, when my brother left, he took the bank card with him, leaving me with just a little cash.”

Angela: “…”

…

…

Back in the car,

Xu Shuo asked about Xu Xi’s university life.

Then he inquired about her situation with Angela.

“Angela doesn’t really mean any harm; she just likes to mess around at times. Also, I think her understanding of this world seems a bit skewed,” Xu Xi reflected.

“What do you mean by skewed?”

“She doesn’t understand a lot of common-sense issues.”

“Oh, maybe it’s because she’s not from this world.”

“…”

Xu Shuo unexpectedly dropped this bombshell.

Stunning Xu Xi into silence for a moment.

She had speculated about Angela’s unique identity, but never considered she might be from another world.

Someone from another world?

It didn’t seem to feel much different.

The car quickly drove onto Peace Street in the Heiyu District.

Xu Shuo was now the only person who could freely enter and exit the sealed-off Peace Street, so he should theoretically be surrounded and questioned by the ordinary residents living there.

But as it turned out, the building he lived in had already been cleared by the authorities.

Now, only official spies lived upstairs and downstairs.

Thus, Xu Shuo didn’t bother looking for a parking spot, boldly parking the car under the residential building.

If someone dared, they could write me a ticket!

Xu Xi already knew what happened thanks to online news, so the armed police every few meters didn’t surprise her, she just glanced curiously towards the discount market direction.

But after they went upstairs and returned home,

she was taken aback by the stranger lying on the living room floor.

“He’ll be sleeping here for a while, but don’t worry about him, just think of him as a dead person. He’ll leave when he wakes up.”

“…”

Xu Xi was speechless.

It felt like there were more and more bizarre things at home.

After placing the small suitcase away, Xu Shuo turned to sit on the sofa, his face serious as he looked at Xu Xi: “Come here, I have a question for you.”

Seeing her brother’s seriousness, Xu Xi couldn’t help but feel a bit tense and leaned to sit across from him on the sofa.

“If this world was about to be destroyed, what would you do?” Xu Shuo asked her directly.

“…”

This question seemed unusually serious.
