Although the efficiency of the Q version assistant cannot be praised, it is undeniable that the things she throws out are always very useful.
Shiraishi quickly found it - lying on the ground one meter away from his feet was a plastic ball the size of the tip of his thumb.
The ball is composed of red and white colors, separated by a black line in the middle, and there is a circle-shaped button in the middle of the black line...
Why does it look more and more familiar the more I look at it?
...Isn't this just a smaller version of the Poké Ball?
Combining the questions he had just asked, he held the ball and realized it for two seconds, and Shiraishi suddenly felt blessed.
He made a plan, first walked to the back door, opened the door ajar, then moved two steps, walked to the nearby wall, and opened the mask again.
5 seconds is a short time, but it can actually do a lot of things.
In the virtualization stage, Shiraishi grabbed the main body first, trying to see if he could carry himself and run away at this stage, but failed and couldn't touch it at all.
Turning around and stretching out his hand could be done in one second, and there were still four seconds left, so Shiraishi decisively tried to pass through the wall.
This time he succeeded.
The moment he passed through the wall, feeling the darkness as if he was blindfolded, Shiraishi was suddenly curious. What would happen if he still stopped in the wall when the time to become blurred came?
...but think about it, this is your own home after all. Even if the mask is not dead, you may still leave a mark on the wall. If the location is not good, the whole building may collapse, so why bother with yourself.
He temporarily gave up the idea of seeking death and decided to try to find a tree in the wilderness later.
When the virtual state ended, Shiraishi was standing completely outside the house.
It was almost midnight, and no one was around to witness this scene. Shiraishi successfully returned home through the ajar door.
After closing the door, he looked at his own body and tentatively brought the mini elf ball over.
This ball produced by Q Version Assistant is different from the one Shiraishi knows.
It has never gotten bigger and has always been in a mini and portable form.
Shiraishi pressed the button in the middle and touched the main body's head with the elf ball, but there was no response.
After thinking about the problem for a while, he endured the shame and shouted: "Elf Ball, catch him!"
Or not.
"..."
"...Baby Ball, catch him!"
"Pokeball, catch me!"
"Baby ball, catch me!"
The hanging ornament was motionless, as if it was really an ordinary hanging ornament.
...This thing must be broken.
Or maybe he made a mistake, and the Poké Ball is not actually used to contain himself?
I tried countless times but it didn't work. If I yelled again, I was afraid that I would die socially in the neighborhood... Shiraishi was a little distracted when he tried, but he couldn't control the intensity in the last time, and the ball hit the forehead of the main body with a bang.
Shiraishi came to his senses for a moment, and at this moment, his body turned into a line of smoke and shrank into the elf ball.
"..." So it turns out that this is the setting, and it has to be smashed?
Although his masked self was intact, Shiraishi couldn't help but touch his forehead.
After detecting the most concerning issues, there is still less than half of the available time and one blur left.
Shiraishi wasted no time and tried every situation he could think of.
After roughly understanding the function of [Mask], the excitement of receiving the reward temporarily subsided, and Shiraishi yawned sleepily.
This day passed really long.
Although the system will fast forward during non-critical moments when controlling the virtual world, Shiraishi still feels like he has been playing the game for dozens of hours.
After washing up like a zombie and finally lying on the quilt, Shiraishi suddenly remembered that he actually had a reward.
——It is the crystal floating out from the body of Fujie Akiyoshi at the end of the virtual world.
I opened the currency interface and took a look, and sure enough, in the [Crystallization] column, the quantity changed from "0" to "1".
Shiraishi remembers that the only use of this thing so far is to hire cafe employees.
And employment is calculated on a daily basis.
... Crystallization is so rare, so it’s better to start hiring from tomorrow. Every day you can save is worth it.
After coming to this conclusion, Shiraishi was finally able to have no regrets and fell into sleep with nothing in mind.
