Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 48 The Hidden Sage Gains a New Perception of the World
Xing pushed open the door, and the wind chimes on the door frame made a tinkling sound.

"I'm not sleeping!" Luo Shan, who was lying on the table, suddenly straightened up and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xing in front of her. Fortunately, it wasn't the captain and the others.

Seeing that it wasn't another member of the Nighthawks, Luo Shan slowly calmed down. After taking a few deep breaths, Luo Shan approached Xing, who was looking around. "Hello, Miss, may I ask what you have come for?"

"I'm here to play with Old Neil. The version is almost over and I haven't finished my story yet." Xing explained to Luo Shan.

"Plot? Uh, what does it mean? I don't really understand." Luo Shan seemed very confused.

As expected, for someone who wasn't a Beyonder, Luo Shan's spirituality was still too low. Even with the guidance of a master, she couldn't see through the truth of this world.

Xing sighed sadly.

Seeing Xing sighing for no reason, Luo Shan felt a little guilty even though she didn't know why.

Xing sat down on the guest sofa in a familiar manner and patted the seat beside him gently: "I see that you don't understand at all."

"Understand...understand what?" Luo Shan still didn't understand.

"You want to know?" Xing lowered his voice, leaned forward slightly, and took out his phone. "I have some good stuff here."

"Good news? Is it this block?" Luo Shan didn't know why, but seemed to be drawn by a magical force and came to sit next to Xing.

"What cube? This is a cell phone."

Xing held the phone between them, the screen lighting up: "Come on, come and see for yourself. Come on, come on."

The screen lit up white, seemingly illuminating the path ahead of Luo Shan. Then, a logo slowly lit up from the center of the screen.

Collapse Star Barrel Railway.

The logo faded, and a long stone corridor appeared in the middle of the screen. The entire picture was blue. In the gray-blue scene, white mist floated by, and retro-style stone pillars stood on both sides of the corridor.

At the end of the corridor was a high-tech door. As it slowly approached the screen, Luo Shan's eyes were drawn to it, and she stared at it intently.

The door opened, and behind it stood a trash can with limbs and its back to the screen.

The trash can turned around, faced the screen, and crossed his arms over his chest, while a mechanical voice sounded.

Captain on the bridge.
The trash can was reflected in Luo Shan's eyes, as if she had opened the door to a new world.

Xing leaned close to Luo Shan's ear, whispering like an ancient god, tempting the ignorant girl to fall.

"I have a spare phone here. Come, I'll help you register an account." Luo Shan nodded subconsciously.

At the end of the working day, Old Neil and Leonard came up from the underground weapons storage room while talking. Before they saw anyone, Roxanne's noisy voice reached Old Neil's ears.

"How strong is this "Oxtail Reincarnation: Thousand Barrels of Hashirama"? I just got it on the guaranteed draw of 330."

"Oh, this is a support, a special crutch for Yhwaba Barrel. Just put them in the same pairing. It's very useful, and it will be especially easy to beat Barrel Name Genichirō. This monster's mechanic is disgusting. After losing the first life, he will commit suicide and summon the Sun God Monkey·Barrel·Luffy."

Old Neil went up to the reception hall and saw the two people lying on the sofa: "Good evening, Miss Xing."

"Please don't call out my real name, or I will be exiled back to the subspace." Xing put down his phone and seriously emphasized that Old Neil was calling him by his wrong name.

"Okay, Ms. Sambo." Old Neil corrected his address. "What are you doing?"

"I'm playing games with Roxanne." Xing handed the screen to Old Neil. Leonard also came forward curiously to take a look at this glowing thing.

Xing looked past Old Neil and met an eye without eyelashes.

Xing blinked, and her eyes fluttered back.

Looking at the phone screen, his lifeless eyes seemed to have a glimmer of light.

…………

At night, Klein lay in bed and looked at the ceiling.

Ceres told him that he would have a lucid dream tonight, which made him a little nervous, and the more he tried to sleep, the more he couldn't fall asleep.

He took a deep breath and used meditation techniques to relax himself, and slowly, he felt his consciousness sinking in. Finally, he fell asleep.

He felt his consciousness vaguely coming to a dark room.

The next moment, he woke up and saw a few big words floating in front of him.

Simulate the universe.
