The battle was in a stalemate, and Luo Yingying's anxious fingers couldn't control the strength, so she pressed hard on the swollen part of Xin Meng's arm. Does the scratching hurt you?"
"It's okay," Xin Meng shook his head and glanced over there again. It happened that You Yi grabbed the other person's arm and stopped the child's movement. The face that could not be seen clearly because he was moving too fast was exposed to everyone. before.
Xin Meng was shocked and knew the other party's identity almost immediately!
This little boy happened to be the powerful ghost child they met before and was scared away by the pillow. According to his guess, it was very likely that he was suffocated to death by other children in the lunch break room. That kid on the news report!
Pillow!
Xin Meng reacted immediately, and You Yi also saw the other person's face. He moved faster than Xin Meng. He let go of his hand and handed the child to Jie Zi and Li Wenjun. He took out the pillow from his backpack and directly Throw it on the little boy.
When the little boy saw something hitting him, he nimbly dodged it, but when he saw the white pillow, he was stunned and his body stiffened instantly.
"Ah ah ah -" He suddenly held his head and let out a horrible, ear-piercing scream!
The ghost boy's eyes widened, and there were more red bloodshot eyes on the whites of his eyes. There were many red bruises and bleeding spots on his nose and lips, and there were large areas of corpse spots on his bare arms and legs.
He became what he was when he died.
The screams continued, making people's eardrums hurt, especially those who were close, and it was unbearable. The three men quickly backed away for a distance.
The child just screamed and curled up on the ground.
Gradually, his body became more and more transparent, and his screams began to weaken. Less than a minute later, the child completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Is this...disappeared?" , one less enemy
It turns out that if you really want to destroy the opponent, relying on force will not work at all, but do you need corresponding props
Because they were killed by a certain object, even if they become evil spirits, they will still be afraid of that object. Just seeing it is enough to scare them out of their wits
Several people were speechless for a moment, either because of the sequelae of tinnitus or because they were rendered speechless by this divine unfolding.
Finally, they entered the lunch room again. Because Xin Meng wanted to confirm his previous suspicion, they returned to bed No. 18.
However, as soon as they got closer this time, they were surprised to find that a new newspaper appeared on the bed!
Not yet!
You Yi picked up the newspaper and looked at it. There was a photo at the top, which was exactly what the ghost child looked like when he died!
It's just different from before. It's not as ghastly as when he turned into a ghost, but it's still shocking enough. The stiff corpse and blue-white skin, even the black and white newspapers, can't cover up the tragic scene.
There is a bold and enlarged caption under the photo: Children’s crimes require more attention!
Further down is another smaller photo. The scene in the photo is in a cemetery. Many people dressed in black, holding flowers in hand, surround a small coffin, bowing their heads in silence.
The faces of these people are still mosaic, and their faces cannot be clearly seen, but there are several relatively small paragraphs of text underneath. Some places are blacked out, and only intermittent content can be seen.
“A few days ago, a child suddenly suffocated and died in a kindergarten in our city while taking a nap. After many days of sleepless investigation and evidence collection by the public security department, it has now been successfully solved... It was not an accident, but a child in the same class... and others used pillows. Suffocated to death... According to the interview... The defense was that it was not intentional murder, but the result of a mistake while playing... According to our country's laws... minors... do not bear criminal responsibility... orphans... without guardians... cannot compensate... "
Most of the content behind it is invisible, but the last paragraph of text is clean and not blocked.
"Good-hearted people in the society made spontaneous donations and held a small funeral for the victimized child, hoping that there would be no sin in heaven."
"It really makes people feel uncomfortable." Luo Yingying said, "I don't know what to say. If an adult kills this child, there is someone to blame, but if a child kills a child, the murderer still has no parents. The orphans... I really don’t know who to blame and who to feel sad for.”
The others are all grown men. Although they are not as delicate as Luo Yingying, their hearts are heavy.
"Forget it, think on the bright side, this can be considered a salvation for them?" Dou Dou couldn't stand such a depressing atmosphere, so he came out to liven up the atmosphere first, "The case was solved and a funeral was held. We accidentally did a good thing. It seems The game encourages us to continue to find props and transcend them."
"Now is not the time to pity them," Jie Zi poured cold water, "Now it is us who will die at any time. When they die, there will be kind people holding funerals for them. When we die... humph, probably we will not even exist. Does anyone remember it, let alone become a ghost and come back to life?"
"Hey!" Dou Dou said black. The atmosphere he had managed to liven up was made even worse by his words!
But the words are rough and the truth is not rough. Although what Jiezi said doesn't sound good, it is still the fact and no one can refute it.
"Let's look for any other props first," Luo Yingying hurriedly smoothed things over, "In order to save them, but also to save ourselves."
Everyone agreed on this, and Xin Meng motioned to You Yi to help him.
His arm was still swollen, so You Yi took over the action. You Yi lifted up the sheets, looked under the bed, and turned back to Xin Meng, shaking his head.
"There are no pillows left?" Xin Meng confirmed again.
"Yeah." You Yi responded.
"What's going on? Where are the props?" Dou Dou scratched his hair, "Did the corresponding props disappear after one is saved?"
"No," Xin Meng took out the pillow from the inventory and placed it on the bed. "It should be said that the items disappeared at night."
"No way..." Luo Yingying and Li Wenjun looked at each other with ugly faces. Luo Yingying said in disbelief, "Doesn't that mean we can only find props during the day? But we have to hide to avoid being caught, and we have to Looking for something? Wouldn’t it be easier to get caught if you wander around?!”
"That's what it is." Jiezi raised his eyebrows and said in a bad way, "Is this the first time you have played this game? Forgot that this is a scary game where you can die at any time, instead of walking around and searching, collect Is there an escape room that can open the door with all the props? How can it be so simple that players can collect all the props at night without any risk and then wait to complete the level during the day? What a dream?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Yingying's face became even more ugly, and Dou Dou kicked Jie Zi, "You'd better shut up!"
Jie Zi curled his lips and looked away indifferently, but did not continue to speak.
"Okay, since that's the case, the situation is too bad, because we only have two props now, and one of them has been used, so there is only one left," Xin Meng said. "The most we can do is find another prop that is beaten with a stick. The child who died should be saved, but we can’t kill the other children if we find them, and we can’t find other props.”
"In other words, we wasted this night again." He sighed.
"Is there no other way?" Luo Yingying was very anxious. Wasting this night means that she will continue to hide tomorrow, and the danger will be extended accordingly. Who knows when she will be discovered!
"Look for that child first, one less is better," Xin Meng could only say, "At the same time, search the whole building to see if there are any props. I hope my inference is wrong."
Although they say this, others also know in their hearts that the possibility is too small.
"Are we still going to be divided into groups?" Li Wenjun asked.
"Let's divide it up, otherwise we won't be able to find it all at dawn." Xin Meng said, "It's better to follow the previous decision, the three of us on the left and the three of you on the right. We will gather outside the door on the first floor before dawn."
But this time, since we have reached the third floor, we no longer plan to search from top to bottom. Instead, we go down to the first floor first, in groups of three, separate to both sides, and search upwards.
The situation of Xin Meng's group is very interesting. Xin Meng is really looking for clues and "ghosts", opening every door, even the gaps behind the cabinet, which can be considered conscientious, while You Yi only scans briefly. After taking a quick look around, he followed Xin Meng as a bodyguard.
Jie Zi leaned against something casually and looked at the two people with interest, as if they were watching some entertainment program.
Xin Meng couldn't bear to see him, "If you don't want to look for it, please go and look in the corridor. If you find anyone passing by, let us know."
"I want to look for it, why don't I want to look for it?" Jie Zi said immediately, then walked to a table, held the book with two fingers, and threw it to both sides as if playing.
Xin Meng really couldn't stand it, but he was too lazy to say anything. As long as the other party didn't do any harm, he would simply turn a blind eye.
As a result, Jiezi didn't be honest for a while and came over again, "Say, little brother, I see you are so skilled at turning things over. What did you do before?"
Xin Meng almost slapped the other person on the face!
What, is this a mockery of him, saying he used to be a thief or a burglar
"I'm still a student!" Xin Meng said stiffly, holding back her anger.
"Oh, students..." Jie Zi chuckled, "Then you and your husband have been together before? Can students fall in love, or with the same sex? Are you not expelled from the school?"
Xin Meng's hands were extremely itchy.
But he also keenly discovered that the other party seemed to use these unflattering words to provoke him and wanted him to say something. Was this... also trying to trick him
If Dou Dou couldn't do it, it was replaced by Jie Zi to help him? What do these two people want to do
Xin Meng was suspicious in her heart, but kept a calm expression on her face. She wanted to see what the other party was doing, so she deliberately looked irritated and said, "We met in the game! Besides, it's none of your business whether I'll be fired or not! You've been there before What is it for?”
"I am," Jie Zi winked at him, "I am a fitness instructor."
"..." Xin Meng gritted her teeth and said, "You still said you are not a hero!"
Jie Zi showed a surprised expression, "I didn't say I wasn't Jie Zi. Didn't I introduce myself before? My name is Jie Zi."
If you argue, it won't be clear. Xin Meng simply turned around and stopped arguing with him.
But Jie Zi came up and continued, "Little brother, you haven't finished speaking yet. You were a student before, and then what? How did you get here?"
