   The package will be delivered within ten days!! I want to say that Qi Xia is still the same as Yu Nian'an in The End of the World, and the teacher's writing is online!! Well-deserved number one on the Tomato List! The plot is really good. In the ending, only Qi Xia is left in the final land. Moreover, it contains a lot of survivor bias, which makes me, a person who usually doesn't like reading, want to understand it. It's really very brain-burning.

    Highly recommended, the protagonist has a high IQ and is not pretentious. It does not deliberately lower the protagonist's IQ like other novels. The human fireworks written in the novel also make people cry, especially the beggar's sentence: "I am a thief, but you are not" instantly made my eyes red.
