The world is collapsing.

The cannon fodder was arrogantly buried in layers of ruins, and the sky showed a gloomy gray color, like an old tree that has been shedding dead leaves.

[Congratulations to the player for clearing the copy of Island No. 24]

[Excuse me, what is your wish? ]

"...tell that 'person' to go away."

[COMMAND COMPLETE]

……

[Player HX2311 is exiting the game program]

[Player HX2311 memory database is being cleared]

"Wait a minute, bro."

"...Why are you willing to call me like that at this time?"

"Are you leaving now?"

"Well, I'm going home."

"Then I'll wait for you here, okay?"

……

……

The sunshine in the city in winter is neither arrogant nor impetuous.

The beam of light passes through the glass window of the bakery and shines obliquely on the chat interface of the mobile phone screen.

[I have something to do at noon, so I won't go back]

Chu Queshang quickly received a reply from the other party: [What? !But today I cook for you specially~ How can you not come back? ]

It seems very sad, and the girl also added an emoji of a cat crying.

"?"

Chu Queshang was expressionless, but he didn't believe that his sister would be so sad. At this time, hearing his number from the cashier, his knuckle fingers quickly replied on the screen:

[Stop being coquettish.I have prepared everything you want, and I will deliver it when the cake arrives. ]

After explaining, Chu Queshang put away his phone and walked to the counter, ready to inquire about the cake style.

"Hi sir, how can I help you?"

The sunlight passed through the street window, leaning impartially on the young man in front of him.

——He wore a soft black woolen scarf and framed a timely dark long windbreaker. The windbreaker was wide, but it made him tall and slender, with broad shoulders and long legs.The slightly long light brown hair hangs so lazily on the tips of the ears, which complements the rare cold and white complexion.

Seeing this, the clerk's little sister couldn't help being startled, and after Chu Queshang finished her request, she came back to her senses and hurriedly wrote it down.

Chu Queshang asked the clerk for another pen, and wrote down his address and phone number in neat handwriting on the notebook.

He smiled politely, the corners of his slightly upturned eyes naturally curved, and smiled slightly: "Please send it to this place for me the day after tomorrow, thank you."

When the clerk saw the delicate handwriting on the paper, he was surprised and liked it.

When he raised his head and saw the handsome and stunning appearance of the young man again, as well as those rare amber cat eyes with a polite smile, his cheeks couldn't help but feel a little hot.

After carefully taking the pen and paper, she reconfirmed the request for the birthday cake.

After Chu Queshang finished the payment and made sure it was correct, he stepped out of the shop on time.

The automatic door rattled.

The clerk seemed to wake up at this time, and forgot to say: "Next time, welcome next time."

Looking at the tall and thin figure of the young man, the clerk entertained the next customer with a professional smirk casually, wondering if he was not up to the mark.

Do you usually talk non-stop while playing games? Why do you stutter when you see a handsome guy? ...

After leaving the shop, the howling cold wind instantly poured into Chu Queshang's scarf. Even though the sun was hanging in the sky, his limbs felt a little chilly.

On the side road, there was an endless flow of vehicles, quite orderly.

Chu Queshang walked on the sidewalk and made a phone call: "I'll go to the supermarket later, ask Qiangzi what he wants."

"Supermarket? Okay!" The mobile phone blasted a happy cheer from the fat house: "But Qiangzi is not in the dormitory, you don't need to worry about him--tomorrow is a rare time for me not to go to see ghost movies with my girlfriend, and I can have a normal one." My date, buy me a bag of potato chips!"

Chu Queshang glanced at the convenience store not far ahead: "Just bring a bag of potato chips?"

"Hey, you single dog don't understand, I heard—"

At this moment, Chu Queshang's eyelids twitched, as if the people around him were all looking at him, and the long black eyelashes seemed to have noticed something, so he subconsciously looked behind——

Other people's voices still came from the phone, but under the sun, Chu Queshang, who noticed something, shrank his pupils.

A bus that appeared out of thin air was reflected on the pupil membranes, galloping towards him like the wind!

The sound of the malfunctioning brakes made a piercing loud noise. In the face of the sudden accident, Chu Queshang had no time to think about why the bus split into the sidewalk, nor did he have time to react and dodge.

Time seemed to stop abruptly at this moment.

In the dead air, he seemed to be able to hear only his own heart beating wildly, as if he was trying to beat all the beatings in the next few decades—until it pierced the eardrum.

In the uproar, his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.

He was in a car accident.

……

hum- hum-

After a long time, Chu Queshang was awakened by the slight vibration of the mobile phone next to the pillow.He woke up in a daze, only feeling dizzy and having a bursting headache.

When I opened my eyes, I saw the ceiling of the dormitory.

After gradually waking up, Chu Queshang raised his hands and rubbed the temples on both sides of his forehead.

The pain eased a little, and he touched the mobile phone with the blinking signal light, and suddenly found that someone was bombarding the group chat with messages.

13: 39—

Qiangzi: Jianghu emergency!The toilet in the teaching building is out of paper! !

Xiaochao: Shout out to Grandpa!

Qiangzi: Zhang Chaoquan, are you taking advantage of the fire? ! ……grandfather.

In the cramped bed, a pair of amber eyes moved as the fingers slid the screen, and the faint blue light emitted by the screen reflected directly on his pale face.

Chu Queshang has the skill of ten lines at a glance, and he quickly browsed through the records.

Looking at it, he found that the group messages at the beginning were very ordinary, and there was nothing special about gagging as usual.

But after 15:30, not only did the number of these messages increase significantly, but the content of the conversations they contained also became somewhat different from usual...

Qiangzi: Are you still alive?

Xiaochao: No such person~

Qiangzi: I'm not kidding you!

Not knowing what happened, what Qiangzi was anxious about next was a few voices.

Perhaps because of the terrible silence in the dormitory, Chu Queshang subconsciously didn't choose to play it, but converted it to text.

After waiting for a few seconds, I saw a few lines of densely packed words.

—Xiao Chao, go outside the window or the corridor to see if there is no one there!

Xiaochao: Clam?What's wrong?What all nobody?

—Don't ask so many questions!Let me tell you, I am in the toilet now and I dare not go out yet.

—I wanted to go shopping at the school gate just now, but the security guards couldn't open the door, and... not only the security guards, I also found that there seemed to be no one outside the school, as well as the roads in the school, the teaching buildings... Anyway, there was no one! !I feel like something must have happened to the school!

Xiaochao: Isn't it normal that there is no one in the school?You should be in class now.

— But have you ever seen a whole school where thousands of people attend class together? !And the thief is so quiet, there is no sound at all!I almost thought I was deaf... Anyway, I am hiding in the toilet now and dare not go out.

— wait wait wait!Xiaochao, hurry up and go to the Nian Duan group, why the number of people has suddenly decreased so much!There used to be five hundred, but now there are only fifty! !

Xiaochao: ... Really.

Xiaochao: Huh? ?Where is my little baby? !Did she delete me because I haven't found her for a long time?No! !

Hadron:***

In Chu Queshang's college life, there were neither clubs nor student unions, so there was never such a thing as a age group in his mobile phone, so that he still doesn't know whether the number of members in that group has dropped sharply.

Anyway, the following dozens of messages are all about these strange things.

The latest news is that Xiaochao has left the dormitory and is asking which bathroom in the teaching building Qiangzi is in.

"..."

Chu Queshang's mushy mind was a little buzzing, he licked the dry corner of his mouth, temporarily put aside what happened in school, and started to think slowly—another roommate asked for leave a few weeks ago to go home, Xiaochao went home again It's on the way to find Qiangzi, so now...

What happened to the footsteps echoing in the dormitory?

Terrible thoughts flashed through his mind instantly, and Chu Queshang suddenly noticed something was wrong.

He was sure that the wandering sound of footsteps so close could never be an illusion.

As the mobile phone gradually dimmed without any movement, the sound coming from outside the curtain became more and more clearly audible.

The footsteps in the dormitory were unhurried and unhurried, as if they were pacing back and forth in the public area of ​​a few square meters.

At this time, another message came from the group chat.

Xiaochao: Qiangzi!Fuck there are monsters! ! !I just saw a pitch-black thing crawl into the men's bathroom! ! !It's over, the world is coming to an end! !

"..."

Chu Queshang thought, the footsteps in the dormitory might be the kind of monster Xiao Chao was talking about?

In the dark, he blinked his eyes, extremely calm.

Because Chu Queshang knows that whether it is the end of the world or a supernatural event, calmness is the best response strategy.

Chu: I'm in the dormitory, and there seem to be "people" in the dormitory, so don't come back for now.

Xiaochao: But son!When did you come back? Why didn't you call you just now?

Chu Queshang raised an eyebrow in doubt.

His eyes moved slightly, and when he was about to reply that he had been in the dormitory, his eyes touched today's date, and his consciousness suddenly woke up.

The day after tomorrow is my younger sister's birthday, so he went out in the morning to order a cake for her, then came out to call Xiaochao, and after that...

hiss--

The screeching sound of the horn, the skidding and rubbing of the tires and the floor were mixed and crumbled into a ball, as if reappearing in the ear, and the memory that was originally a mess in the mind gradually became clear due to horror.

...?

Chu Queshang was completely dumbfounded. What's going on?He remembered that he was hit by a bus, but now he appeared in the dormitory safe and sound.

Is it a scam?Or reborn?

The fear of death swept over him like a tide again.

Chu Queshang was sure that it wasn't a dream - the panicked eyes of the bus driver and him at that time were even clearly engraved in his mind.

The chat records with my sister are also lying there, word for word.

Chu thought about something, and he turned on the front camera of the phone camera.

——Under the dim light, a delicate and cool face was reflected on the screen, with cold brows and thin lips, dim eyes, no wounds, no disfigured handsome face, no missing arms or legs.

Still so handsome...

That's the weirdest thing.

The screen of the mobile phone held in the palm of the hand turned on again.He looked down in a trance, and found that it was a message from an app he had never seen before.

The name of the APP is 【Escape Live】

The logo is very simple. It outlines a simple eye with black and white lines. If you look closely, it looks a bit like the omniscient eye.

Chu Queshang regained his senses from the car accident in panic, remembering that he had never installed any live broadcast software.

He stared at the app.

The eye on the icon is surrounded by a ray of light, like the eyes of God, revealing plainness, compassion, anger, surprise, joy... mixed feelings, looking quietly at Chu Queshang on the opposite side of the screen.

In the current situation where everything is unknown, the software eyes lying quietly in the mobile phone inexplicably made him feel at ease.The phone glowed brightly from the screen, Chu Queshang seemed to be bewitched, and opened the software involuntarily.

The quadruple dorms are 'quiet' as usual.

This so-called "live broadcast software" seems to be no different from ordinary chat applications. The home page is [Contacts].

And lying alone on the homepage is a "person" named [Live Assistant].

The message I just received was from it:

——[Congratulations to the host for binding the Escape Live app and becoming a contract anchor.After the host completes the novice task in "Thriller Game", the live broadcast room will be automatically created for you immediately]
