The shrill cry of a baby resounded in this small private room. Lin You hid under the table and could only feel that the surrounding area was like a frying pan with a drop of water dripping into it, and it suddenly exploded.
The sounds of chairs being dragged, people screaming and running in terror, and the sounds of tableware being smashed were all intertwined. Lin You moved carefully under the dining table, trying to avoid being stepped on by those running around.
"Ahh~"
Finally, she didn't know how long it took. Lin You thought it should be a long time, but in fact, very soon, a scream sounded, and then a figure fell heavily to the ground, and the first victim appeared.
Through the tablecloth hanging on the table, Lin You vaguely saw that the unlucky guy was Wang Rong. He fell down, his body still twitching and his limbs struggling, as if he wanted to grab the purple ghost baby on his head.
But the baby held his head firmly, and sharp nails grew out of his little hands and feet, which were deeply embedded in Wang Rong's flesh. The ghost baby's small mouth opened, and its small scarlet tongue spit out, and the tongue stretched out. The old man came into Wang Rong’s ears.
Only a gurgling sound was heard, Wang Rong's eyes rolled white, the twitching of his body slowly stopped, and finally everything returned to calm.
The ghost baby narrowed his eyes, as if he was enjoying something. The bruises on his body gradually faded and became whiter and tenderer. Then he let go of his hand and crawled out of the door. The woman in the red dress outside the door picked up the ghost baby and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
From Wang Rong's ears, something red and white slowly flowed out, and everyone naturally knew what it was.
The box was still silent. After a while, Lin You heard the sound of water, followed by the smell of urine. It turned out that someone was so scared that he peed his pants.
Naturally, the guy who peed his pants was not any one of the players. After all, the players had a relatively strong psychological endurance. Although the start of the incident was dangerous, it would not cause them to collapse to such a shameless state.
The person who peed his pants is a local NPC. Lin You could barely bear the strange smell, and her mind began to spin crazily.
In the past, dungeon NPCs would show no expression when faced with the death of players, or they would turn a blind eye, without any trace of panic. In comparison, the reaction of the NPC in this instance was strange and very real.
Not only Lin You thought this, but other players also seemed to understand something and had their own thoughts in their hearts. When the NPC named Jin trembled and asked:
"Then, what the hell is that!"
At this time, Zhou Zhou, who had some leadership qualities, took the lead to stand up. He intends to take the initiative in this conversation.
Zhou Zhou first sighed falsely, then stared at the NPCs and carefully observed their expressions.
"Oh, it seems I still can't suppress it."
"Wha, what?" Seeing the reaction of Zhou Zhou, the restaurant owner, the NPCs immediately thought that he knew the inside story, and they couldn't help but began to question Zhou Zhou. That attitude was completely different from the two brothers at the dinner table before.
These NPCs are locals. The clothes and chains they wear show that they are rich people and they should have some ideas and power. Therefore, since they reacted to the strange scene, Zhou Zhou planned to pull these guys onto his ship.
The NPCs looked at Zhou Zhou in horror. Zhou Zhou sighed and typed up the draft in just a few minutes. He spoke smoothly and captured the frightened psychology of the NPCs. Zhou Zhou’s advantage is that he is the only one among all the players who knows his identity and is the owner of the hotel, so what he says is well-founded and credible:
"I didn't expect something like this to happen. I clearly invited the master to come."
The fat man with big ears has not yet come to his senses. The lanky man was scared to death, so the only one who can still move is the NPC named Jin. He became the representative of these NPCs, strode up to Zhou Zhou, and scolded:
"What do you mean! Do you know what's right?"
Zhou Zhou smiled bitterly, sighed, straightened the chair that was tilted on one side, and then spoke
"You also know that I sell fairy soup here. Most of the raw materials for this fairy soup come from bright sources. But... I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet?"
What happened just now was indeed the baby ghost causing trouble, and Zhou Zhou was on point, so not only the players who didn't know what was going on, but also the NPC who was now angry didn't interrupt him.
"But, something happened last time. Someone brought raw materials inexplicably, and our chef mistakenly thought they were normal raw materials and made a dish. Since then, some strange things have happened in the store."
Zhou Zhou's expression looked painful and confused, as if the truth was what he said and not what he had made up a few minutes ago.
"So, your chef is dead?"
The npc's sudden words caught Zhou Zhou off guard. Is their chef dead? ? ? What the hell? ? ? Zhou Zhou was excited inside, but Zhou Zhou remained calm on the outside.
"If Chef Wang is dead, will we be fine?" The fat NPC then said, "We are just innocent consumers and it is none of our business."
Damn innocent consumers, Lin You sneered. If there is no sale, there will be no killing. Everyone present is probably not an innocent guy.
But Chef Wang, is he Wang Rong
It was a bit miserable. Looking at Wang Rong's ferocious death state, Lin You gritted his teeth. It is clear that the players are all innocent, but they are involved in this kind of incident.
No, I can’t think about it anymore.
Lin You shook his head. If he continued in his previous state, he would easily become a self-pitying guy. If he lost his temper, it would be difficult to survive in this game.
"It's hard to say. The top priority now is to find a master." Zhou Zhou's words were very clever. After all, this is indeed normal. "The master I went to last time clearly said that he suppressed these ghosts, but... I wonder if any of the elder brothers have any reliable masters to recommend. Of course, our hotel will cover all the expenses."
But if you are a really smart guy, it is more important to find out how the raw materials of the so-called fairy soup caused the supernatural events than to find a master.
Zhou Zhou never mentioned this matter. Their background characters were all guilty and could not be discovered. As for finding the master, it seems that he encountered a zombie copy before and accidentally discovered that there was a powerful Taoist priest inside who specialized in restraining zombies.
Later, after listening to explanations from experienced players, I learned that most of the supernatural dungeons would have some key props or masters with special skills to specifically restrain the ghosts in this dungeon.
However, this kind of characters or props are very, very difficult to find. You have to mobilize a lot of resources in the dungeon or trigger certain conditions before you can encounter them.
Zhou Zhou saw that these NPCs seemed to be quite powerful, and he had long planned to use their hands to help. Regardless of whether they can be found or not, rather than letting these NPCs leave like this, it would be better to give them something to do.
What Zhou Zhou said made sense. Naturally, he should go to the master for such ghostly matters. Therefore, the minds of those NPCs began to spin crazily.
They confidently believed that the fairy soup had nothing to do with them and that they were just innocent passers-by. But they really don't know if those ghosts think so. Rather than pinning your hopes on those ghosts and monsters who are clear-minded and can clearly understand the truth of resentment and revenge, it would be better to find a master to help you feel more at ease, right
Everyone was frightened until the end of the meal, and in the end no one dared to go out first. It was the waiter of this hotel who saw that they had not made any movement for a long time, and came to call for help, which made the players and bosses tremblingly leave the box.
As for Wang Rong's body, the players hid it in the box. Zhou Zhou asked for the key to the box and locked the door. Anyway, they will only stay in this dungeon for a few days. As for the body, they can just hide it for a while.
Those NPCs obviously had no time to care about Wang Rong's body, and they hurriedly left this place of right and wrong. After the npc left, the players naturally did not leave. They still had things to discuss.
Since Zhou Zhou is the owner of this restaurant, he has made a spacious private room facing the sun for the players. He will deal with the restaurant affairs by himself for the time being.
The players were not idle either, turning on their mobile phones or bags to look for their character identity information.
This dungeon was so difficult that players subconsciously started to form a group. However, Gao Ren was rejected by everyone. What he did at that time cannot be said to be wrong, but it was too exciting to just let the ghost baby in and randomly arrest people. It has left a strong psychological shadow on all players.
Gao Ren also knew that he was not welcome, so he just sat aside. What's the use of being popular or not? It's good to be alive.
Lin You noticed the atmosphere among the players and didn't say anything. He just kept quiet and opened the phone on his body. Several messages jumped out impatiently.
"Dr. Lin, you said last time that you could secretly perform an abortion on me, right?"
"Please, please reply to me. I have raised enough money, can you do it tomorrow?"
…
Lin You scanned the sent messages at a glance and found that "Doctor Lin"'s notes for these women who wanted to have abortions were: Reserve Grain 1, Reserve Grain 2... all the way to Reserve Grain 9.
Not to mention why there were so many women who needed to have their children removed, Lin You could sense a hint of madness from just this comment.
Now, she completely believed that her character was a woman with a story.
