Disguised as a Boss in an Escape Game

Chapter 3: A headless ghost haunts

Views:

The next day, Yuxi was woken up by screams outside the door.

Hey, this is the correct way to open an escape game.

The funny female ghost who came yesterday obviously has the wrong style of painting.

You Xi stared blankly at the ceiling above his head, he was still young, with a flirtatious look, always thinking that he was born beautiful, unique, and would live forever. But in the end, it was not as good as the many otaku boyfriends he made in the game. Others just didn't have a date for the time being, and he might not have a date until he died.

With his head resting on his arms, Yuxi let out a rare sad sigh.

He didn't want to die, so even if he was very resistant, he still had to get up early in the morning to find out what happened outside.

At this moment, Yuxi suddenly heard the sound of the system in his ears.

"Ding-

S-level player No. 004 has obtained 2 million game coins as of the 16th hour after the start of "Midnight Villa". Congratulations to player No. 004 for becoming a hit! "

The system administrator tried his best to suppress his excitement, but his tone was not as objective and fair as he imagined, but revealed flattery that was hard to ignore.

"In less than 24 hours, number 004, you have gained more than 300,000 fans, and even a gold master directly rewarded 1 million in your game live room. Now, number 004, you are listed on the game homepage, and a large number of fans are crazy coming to you—”

This year's year-end awards must be doubled! The system administrator was about to explode happily, what kind of godly luck was he, to pick up such a big guy.

Powerful, mysterious, and most importantly, extremely good-looking, men and women take it all! Sysadmins seem to see a rising star.

"When No. 003 swept the escape game last year, it wasn't as fast as you!" the system administrator said, "I'll give you an extra meal for afternoon tea!"

Afternoon tea became richer, Yuxi was a little happier, but, live broadcast? Who is it streaming for? What can 2 million game coins buy

Although he really wanted to know, Yuxi didn't ask. Since he wanted to pretend to be a boss, he could only hold back his curiosity and keep his style.

Don't worry, if he has a chance to fish in troubled waters to clear the level, he will definitely be able to figure it out after he gets out of the Midnight Villa dungeon.

Yuxi walked out of the room. Outside the door, the players gathered at his door, and when they saw him condescendingly come out of the room, they immediately seemed to have found the backbone.

Teacher TOM with pink hair said: "Sir, Dr. Liu is dead!"

Because he didn't have a deep conversation with other players, You Xi didn't know who was Dr. Liu, so he had to go closer to the corpse and observe carefully. The corpse lay on the bed in the room of "Wednesday", which had long been changed beyond recognition. According to his roommate teacher TOM, Dr. Liu died quietly. It wasn't until Mr. TOM woke up this morning that he found out that his death was miserable.

Yuxi held back his nausea and fear, and finally matched the dead man with the characters in his mind.

Dr. Liu didn't talk much. He sat on the right side of the blonde girl whose head was shot at dinner last night. He had a big appetite, and half of the roast goose was eaten by him.

You Xi only had these impressions of Dr. Liu.

You Xi lazily stood leaning against the table, the hazy morning light shone on his sharp and handsome face, he smiled half-smile, and asked casually: "Tell me, what did you do yesterday?"

Teacher Tom looked at You Xi, and tried his best to suppress the eagerness to be moved by the boss. He recalled: "Yesterday afternoon, I entered the room with Mr. Liu, and I didn't notice anything unusual, but Dr. Liu said that there was a peculiar smell in the room that could not be ignored, so he strongly asked to sleep on the window. .”

While talking, the curtains in the room were blown up by the wind, and everyone saw a blood-red handprint on the white wall!

The temperature in the room dropped a lot in an instant.

Teacher TOM, who was caught in the memory, seemed to think of something terrible: "After dinner at night, Dr. Liu said that the smell in the room was getting worse. I asked him what the smell was... He said it was like carrion. I was timid and tried my best. I persuaded him to close the doors and windows to prevent dirt from crawling in, but he insisted on opening the windows, and this happened."

Teacher TOM said in the end, his voice was trembling, and he looked at Yuxi pitifully: "But sir, I asked other people, the window of the 'Friday' room was also opened last night, I don't understand why our room was stared at Go? I beg you to save me!"

Yuxi: "..."

Um, totally clueless.

I was wrong, I overestimated my IQ, not everyone is capable of reasoning.

It's nothing, there is no logic between the clues, you can't say that you died first because your room stinks, can you still be a boss who tells such nonsense

You Xi sneered: "You didn't tell the truth, I can't help you."

No matter, if you encounter something that cannot be solved, it is right to push the blame first. Did Mr. Tom tell the truth? Only Mr. Tom knows that his boss character design cannot be broken no matter what. As long as others still think that Yu Xi is awesome, then he is not lost!

Teacher Tom was really frightened: "I'm sorry, sir, don't be angry—but, I have reasons for hiding it from you. You must save me!"

Teacher Tom burst into tears: "Can you let everyone else go out, I will only tell you the truth."

"Gu Mian stay here, the others go out first." You Xi said after pondering for a while.

Being named by You Xi, Gu Mian was flattered, he adjusted his glasses, tried hard to hide his ambition, and made himself look as calm as possible.

Teacher Tom is still dissatisfied, why does Gu Mian insist on keeping it.

The smile that was always on the corner of You Xi's lips disappeared, and his tone was extremely cold: "Your life is your own, and I don't have time to be hypocritical with you. Are you going to say it or not?"

Teacher Tom clenched his fists and struggled for two seconds: "I say! I probably know where the smell of carrion comes from."

But he didn't speak anymore, but sat silently by the bed and took off his shoes.

As the breeze blew, an unbearable stench hit Yuxi violently with lightning speed.

You Xi: "..." Damn, what kind of smell is this? I'll go, it's so eye-catching!

You Xi was so smoked that his eyes were squinted, and tears were about to flow out. He didn't care about his bossy demeanor, and immediately walked away: "Gu Mian, I'll leave the rest to you."

The boss waved his sleeves, but the boss didn't take away a cloud.

Gu Mian, who wanted to leave with the boss, took all her steps out, because of what the boss said, she was forced to stay in this room that smelled like rotting corpses.

Although it was very rude, Gu Mian couldn't stand it, and suddenly opened the window, breathing wildly. When he saw the room opposite the window, Gu Mian took a breath.

Teacher TOM put on the shoes silently behind Gu Mian, wanting to cry, "Did I get rejected by my husband?"

"No—" Gu Mian swallowed hard, "Mr. Lie saw it early on. He deliberately kept me here, probably because he wanted me to see this."

"What?" Teacher Tom leaned over and looked at what Gu Mian was pointing at, his pupils dilated instantly just like Gu Mian.

After a long while, the two of them came out of "Wednesday"'s room after tidying up their mood.

In the hall, You Xi was eating breakfast at the table, when he saw Gu Mian coming down from the second floor, he smiled slightly, and brazenly sold his lust to buy his younger brother.

No one can resist the charm of You Xi who really smiles at him, not to mention that Gu Mian has long admired him. For a moment, Gu Mian felt that she was favored by God and favored by her husband. He has excellent grades since he was a child, but no matter how many times he took the first place in the exam, he has never been surrounded by happiness like this moment.

Receiving the appreciation from the boss, Gu Mian suddenly floated to the clouds.

"About this matter," You Xi asked, "Gu Mian, what do you think?"

You Xi took a sip of the soup, closed his eyes, and successfully used Di Renjie's "Yuanfang, what do you think" speech technique to throw the problem to others. You Xi hides his achievements and fame deeply, and can't help but praise himself!

"First of all, all players who died in the game must be cremated on the spot, otherwise they may be cursed and demonized by the game." Gu Mian said in a loud voice, "Secondly, everyone must close the doors and windows tonight, and be careful of headless ghosts. "

Everyone looked flustered, only Yuxi looked happy.

Of course You Xi was happy, Gu Mian really had two skills, he encouraged Gu Mian to continue talking with his eyes.

Gu Mian said again: "I saw the palm prints spreading all the way on the opposite wall from the window. The palm prints started to spread from the window in the hall on the first floor. After reaching the second floor, the first room I passed was 'Sunday'. The two passing rooms are 'Wednesday'."

"Unfortunately, last night, Mr.'s window was closed. The ghost who climbed out of the hall window failed to enter Mr.'s room, and came to the house of 'Wednesday'. There should be a limit on the number of deaths per day in the game, so Liu who is closest to the window The doctor was killed by the headless ghost, but Jiang Jiang survived."

Jiang Jiang is Teacher Tom's real name.

You Xi was terrified when he heard that, did he close the window last night? It doesn't seem to be turned off... When he woke up at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, he still felt the wind blowing outside.

Could it be that when he woke up last night, the headless ghost was actually watching him from outside his window

Yuxi was afraid for a while.

Ahhh, so scary! but-

"Why is it a headless ghost?" Xiao Lu, a boy who didn't show up at the dinner table last night, didn't understand the situation and asked.

"A player died last night and her head was cut off." Teacher TOM explained, "When everyone woke up in the morning, they found that her head was still on the table and no one cleaned it up, but the torso of the corpse had disappeared. Where is it?"

"It must have been her who killed Dr. Liu last night!" Teacher TOM trembled, "We asked the villa attendants, they hate the dead in the villa, they don't like to clean up the corpse, and it is impossible for someone to hide the corpse secretly. The head is still there, the corpse But without a trace, there can only be one explanation—the dead player has become a ghost!"

"No wonder Lao Liu's face was gnawed to pieces when he died." The man in the suit said with emotion, "I don't know if the female ghost will grow eyes and nose after eating Lao Liu's face?"

"So, we must cremate the corpse now to prevent further accidents." Gu Mian worried, "The question now is, where do we go to cremate? If we step out of the villa, we will die, but there is no yard in the villa. How to dispose of the corpse is a very difficult task." Serious and pressing issue.”

You Xi had an ominous premonition, and sure enough, everyone's eyes drifted to him again.

You Xi was speechless, since he pretended to be a boss, he could no longer be a happy crowd.
