Chapter 20 Can you see me?


    Su Mo has always been a very hard-working person. His grades have always been among the top five in the class since he was a child.


    Study hard and work part-time in his spare time. Sumo doesn’t have much ideals. He just wants to join a good company after graduation and earn money as soon as possible to share the pressure on his family.


    ?Although Sumo has not graduated yet, he occasionally fantasizes about his future working life...


    “What did I ask you? What did you hear?”


    ?Gao Ming''s tone turned cold, and Su Mo shivered in fright. Just now, the revolving door of life actually appeared in the mind of this simple college student.


    “No.” Su Mo immediately shook his head: “I didn’t hear anything!”


    "Don''t be curious about things you shouldn''t be curious about." Gao Ming blocked the door with his body: "The world is more complicated than you think. Go home early at night and don''t work outside too late."


    “I understand, I understand.” Sumo picked up his electric bike helmet, turned around and ran away, even faster than last time.


    ?He rushed into the elevator out of breath, and Sumo pressed the door close button desperately. When the silver-gray elevator door closed, he breathed a sigh of relief.


    “The workplace is terrible.”


    ??The air conditioning in the building was fully turned on. Sumo wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood in the corner of the elevator. At this time, two men, one tall and one short, were chatting quietly next to him.


    “The night before yesterday, a programmer on the 11th floor died suddenly while working overtime. His colleagues thought he was asleep, so they worked next to the body for a while before realizing something was wrong.”


    “It’s really scary. The gaming industry is so complicated now. The amount of money I earn every day is not enough to see a doctor.”


    "Do you know what is more terrifying?" The short man waved and lowered his voice: "I heard from my friend that when he went out of the office last night, he saw someone working in the room, so he didn''t turn off the lights. . At this time, the man turned his back and said: It''s okay, I can see without a light."


    “I guess? Is the programmer who died suddenly coming back?”


    “I don’t know! Anyway, my friend was also stunned at the time, and later found that the man was sitting at the deceased’s workstation, and the computer screen seemed to be filled with garbled codes!”


    The elevator shook, and the two men walked out, leaving Su Mo alone in the elevator.


    ?He stared at the numbers on the elevator display screen, feeling a little scared. The story told by the two male employees just now echoed in his ears.


    The blood-red numbers keep changing until they reach 11.


    ??The elevator door slowly opened, but there was no one outside. The cold wind from the air conditioner flowed into his neck along his collar. He stared at the empty corridor in silence, his heart seemed to be scratched by several small hands, and he became increasingly uneasy.


    ?A few seconds later, the elevator was about to close, and a male employee carrying a computer bag hurriedly ran into the elevator.


    ?Seeing that someone was with him, Su Mo was relieved. He hugged his helmet tightly and took out his mobile phone to continue taking orders.


    Staring at the screen of his mobile phone, Su Mo suddenly felt a little strange. He turned the screen of his mobile phone and switched to selfie mode. Suddenly he realized that the male employee just now had been looking at him since he got on the elevator.


    With his Adam''s apple rolling, he secretly glanced at the male staff member, who was staring directly at him.


    ?Hooking backwards and leaning silently against the elevator, the male employee kept the same expression and opened his mouth little by little.


    “So you can really see me.”


    …


    Gao Ming did not go after Su Mo. He stood guard at the door of the utility room, silently drinking his cup of milk tea.


    ??As the number of downloads of "To Our Mortal Love" continues to increase, Xuanwen''s situation becomes worse and worse. While her self-will is growing rapidly, she also becomes crazy because she eats up too many emotions.


    ?At 9:30 in the evening, many rooms in the office building have turned off the lights, and the last employee bus has left. Except for Night Light Studio, only the fifth-ranked unicorn game studio under Motu Technology is still working overtime.


    There are very few people in the Night Light Studio. They work overtime because they don’t have any work to do. Finally, they have a project, so everyone is working hard.


    The number of employees in Dujiao Game Studio is several times that of Night Light, and it occupies three floors. Their studio is the most popular studio in Motu Technology. Every employee is the best, and their normal off-duty time is at nine o''clock in the evening. .


    "Are you risking your life just to make money? The prisoners in Henshan Felon Prison have all finished their labor reform and returned to their dormitories at this time." Gao Ming was worried that Xuanwen would lose control and kill, and hoped that everyone would leave quickly, but it backfired, and everyone got involved tonight.


    "Gao Ming! The number of downloads of our trial version has exceeded 15,000!" Wei Dayou was very excited and ran to the door of the utility room to share the good news with Gao Ming: "There is no big publicity. , players are spontaneously inviting friends to play, and our game has the potential to break the circle!”


    "fine."


    "Your insistence is right! Our night light should be able to survive with this game!" Wei Dayou made a cup of coffee: "Our studio has not seen any dividends from the game for seven months, and now everyone''s passion has been mobilized Get up!”


    “They don’t say it, but they are actually very fond of Night Lights.” Gao Ming himself has worked with Night Lights for a long time and knows that this studio once was brilliant.


    "We must make a good comeback this time!" Wei Dayou had no intention of leaving, which gave Gao Ming a headache.


    “Douyou, let everyone get off work and go back to rest as soon as possible. It’s too late.”


    “I’m not going back today! We want to fight!” Wei Dayou took a sip of coffee and returned to his work station like a man.


    “What a rebellious person.” Gao Ming glanced at the growing number of downloads of the trial version and knocked on the door of the utility room: “Xuanwen, are you feeling better?”


    No one responded, Gao Ming was a little worried, so he opened the door a crack.


    ?The lights were distorted, and there was no light in the utility room, only large shadows shaking like will-o''-the-wisps.


    “Xuan Wen?”


    ??The woman in business attire was wrapped in layers of shadows. Her eyes were closed tightly, and small black blood vessels appeared on the surface of her skin. One end of these blood vessels was connected to the shadow, and the other end converged and twisted inside her body.


    “This is a bit like the chain between Zhao Xi and me.”


    Zhao Xi was turned into a villain by the unknown world. All the weird and terrifying abilities in him came from another world. His own memories, regrets and obsessions turned into black blood vessels like chains, entangled between him and Gao Xi. On the wrist of life.


    Zhao Xi is a real person, but Xuan Wen was designed by Gao Ming. She has no connection with the real world. But when more than 10,000 people learned of her existence through the game, she also grew that kind of Tiny black blood vessels.


    “If you believe it, there will be it, if you don’t believe it, there will be none. Strong emotional stimulation may keep the ghost stories in people’s hearts forever. No wonder those ghosts like to spread terror.”


    ?Gao Ming stepped into the shadows and stared at Xuan Wen''s white neck.


    All the small blood vessels that just appeared converged there, eventually forming a chain-like existence. This seems to be the core of Xuan Wen''s obsession and memory.


    “Destroy the chain, and Xuan Wen may be sent back to the shadow world in a coma, or she may directly collapse and lose control; connect the chain to me, and I may be able to take away her abilities.”


    The opportunity to "kill" Xuan Wen and "dominate" Xuan Wen was right in front of him. Gao Ming''s hand slowly raised, but in the end he just picked up the unopened cup of milk tea next to Xuan Wen.


    “It’s hard to find yourself. It would be too cruel to leave without experiencing the beauty.” Gao Ming opened the lid of the milk tea and drank a lot: “It’s delicious at room temperature without ice.”


    Gao Ming took the milk tea and left the utility room. After he closed the door and walked away, Xuan Wen''s closed eyes slowly opened.


    “I give you a chance to drink milk tea?”
