Luo Yingying and Li Wenjun turned their heads and found that the person walking over was a muscular man, not tall, with bronze skin, a bright smile, and big white teeth.
"Are you a new teammate?" Luo Yingying hugged her husband's arm and asked curiously.
"I..." The strong man was about to speak.
"Jie Zi?!" Xin Meng suddenly screamed, her face changing drastically!
Who is this man if not Jie Zi!
Xin Meng's eyes widened and she almost suspected that she was hallucinating!
In the first game, the NPC who infiltrated their team, framed them, and finally revealed his true face actually appeared in front of him again? !
The muscles, smile, white teeth, and even the sleeveless vest are exactly the same!
Xin Meng can't even deceive herself that she just looks like him!
But how is it possible? Isn't he an NPC? Isn't he the BOSS in a zombie game? Why can NPCs still travel through the game like players
No...no!
His eyes opened wider and wider, staring at the armband on the man's arm!
Player armband!
How...how could...
Even though Xin Meng was calmer than the others, she couldn't help but panic at this moment, her head was in a mess and she couldn't say a word!
"What? Xin Meng, do you know him?" Luo Yingying saw that Xin Meng's reaction was not right and asked quickly.
Xin Meng stared at Jie Zi, her brows furrowed tightly and she said nothing.
"I've never seen you before." The man smiled nonchalantly, "You got the wrong person."
"Then... what's your name?" Xin Meng asked through gritted teeth.
"Me?" The man grinned, "My name is Jie Zi."
Xin Meng: "..."
Jie Zi then said: "I am a player, look, I have an armband!"
After saying that, he deliberately raised his arm and showed Xin Meng the armband with the SM-style LOGO, and waved it in front of his eyes, looking triumphant.
Xin Meng gritted her teeth, but couldn't say anything.
what is going on
To say that he admitted his mistake would be an absolute lie! But the fact is before our eyes, this person has changed from an NPC to a player
How could this happen!
"Did you kill the player and then steal his armband!" This was the only possibility that Xin Meng could think of!
"Hey," Jie Zi sighed, "I'm obviously a player, your new teammate, how can you miss me so much, what kind of hatred and grudges are you really... don't accuse me wrongly, I'm a good person, fight and kill. I don’t know how to do it.”
Xin Meng was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped out. The ferocious face that Jie Zi showed when he sneaked up on him was still fresh in his memory. Did you say that he was a good person? Only a ghost can believe it!
"You must have mistaken me for someone else, poor little brother, your eyes are so bad." Jiezi smiled heartily, "It's okay, I will protect you from now on, brother!"
Xin Meng: "..."
At this time, Dou Dou, who had been inexplicably quiet since Jie Zi appeared, suddenly took two steps forward, grabbed Jie Zi's arm, and pulled the armband hard.
"It's true, you can't pull it off." Dou Dou said to Xin Meng, "The player's armband will always follow the player. Even if he dies, it will not fall off, let alone be snatched away by others. It seems that he is indeed our new teammate. ."
Xin Meng's eyes moved slightly and landed on Dou Dou.
Dou Dou turned his back and faced Jie Zi, not knowing what he was doing. However, Jie Zi kept smiling and looked at Dou Dou without saying a word.
"It's true, I can't pull it off!" Luo Yingying also tugged on the armband on her arm and found that it was really like this!
"Dou Dou, how did you know about this?" Li Wenjun thought more and asked Dou Dou doubtfully.
Xin Meng kept staring at Dou Dou. This time he was too anxious and said something he shouldn't have said. Even Li Wenjun noticed something was wrong.
Dou Dou froze, then laughed and said, "I guessed it, you guessed it, because I've pulled it myself before, but I didn't even pull it off!"
But no one could accept his answer, even Luo Yingying looked at him suspiciously.
"Oops!" Dou Dou was so embarrassed that he almost couldn't laugh. Then he seemed to see something and suddenly pointed towards the building: "You Yi is here!"
Xin Meng had already sensed it and knew that what he was telling was not a lie. When she turned around, she saw You Yi walking out of the front of the building unhurriedly.
He immediately ran over and walked closer. You Yi reached out to fish it out, then put his arm around Xin Meng's shoulders and brought it to him.
"What's wrong?" You Yi could tell at a glance that Xin Meng was in something wrong.
"It's Jiezi!" Xin Meng whispered in his ear, "He appears again! And for some reason, he turned out to be a player this time!"
You Yi glanced at Jie Zi, received a smile from Jie Zi, lowered his head and said to Xin Meng, "Don't be afraid, wait and see what happens."
I'm not afraid...
Xin Meng was very confused. He really couldn't understand how this role was changed...
correct! Role reversal!
It seems mentioned on the card
He took out the card and looked at [Yin and Yang alternation, role alternation] on it.
Does it mean that the roles of players and NPCs can be interchanged? But something feels wrong...
Although I don't know if this "role alternation" refers to Jie Zi, the fact that this guy appears here makes Xin Meng extremely vigilant.
However, Jie Zi didn't seem to care about his thoughts. He just smiled and took out his card and handed it to him.
Xin Meng took it as if facing an enemy and looked down.
[Have you ever played hide and seek?]
Hearing Xin Meng read this sentence, although everyone still had their own thoughts, the others were still speechless. Luo Yingying almost cried while holding Li Wenjun's arm.
"It's true!" Luo Yingying said with a sad face, "I don't want to meet children in a horror game at all!!"
...Children in the real world are scary enough, not to mention that in this environment, she would not take any chances, thinking that she would see an innocent, cute, simple and kind-hearted baby.
Dou Dou couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. "I don't like kids in horror movies either."
Xin Meng was holding the card over there, her expression blank.
You Yi hugged him and asked softly, what's wrong
Xin Meng hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, "What is peek-a-boo?"
"What? You don't know what peek-a-boo is?" Luo Yingying asked in surprise, "You never played it when you were a child?"
Xin Meng paused and shook his head.
Luo Yingying still looked in disbelief, "Then what did you play when you were a child?"
Xin Meng still looked confused and finally said, "I forgot."
Luo Yingying twitched the corner of her mouth and was about to say how old you are, how could you forget so quickly, when she heard Xin Meng continue to say: "I don't know why, the more games I clear, the less memories I have about the past. "
"When I didn't think about it, I didn't feel anything. But now when I try to think about it, I find that my memory has become blank and I have forgotten everything."
Everyone else was shocked!
Could it be that the game will gradually devour their memories and turn them into people with no past or even thoughts
Everyone couldn't help but speculate in all kinds of bad places, and even reflexively began to think about their past.
"We still remember it very clearly." Luo Yingying and Li Wenjun even asked each other questions, asking each other to answer to confirm whether they were slowly losing their memory, but the answer was no.
They all remember it very clearly, even the color of the neighbor's cat when they were children, and the name of the person who bullied them in elementary school.
Only Xin Meng had such a reaction.
what happened
Everyone looked at Xin Meng, but Xin Meng's expression was still calm, "I don't know the reason either."
"This is interesting." Jie Zi seemed to be very interested and took two steps towards Xin Meng. However, Xin Meng was very wary and immediately stepped back more than ten steps. The movement was so big that Jie Zi had to click his tongue and stop. down.
"How did you get into the game, do you remember?"
"I don't remember." Xin Meng answered simply and clearly. "I probably came here right after I woke up."
Luo Yingying and Li Wenjun couldn't help but look at You Yi, who had been silent all this time. Their lover suddenly lost his memory. What would his expression be like
The answer turned out to be - no expression.
Perhaps Xin Meng's mood was too calm, or perhaps it was due to his own personality. You Yi was not as shocked as they imagined, but his eyes were deeper and the corners of his mouth were pursed.
When Xin Meng looked over, You Yi ruffled his hair, put his arms around his shoulders, and whispered, "It doesn't matter whether there is a past or not. What matters is the future."
"Yeah." Although Xin Meng didn't feel uncomfortable, nor did he have the so-called "missing something" uncomfortable feeling, You Yi's words still made him feel more at ease, and his whole person felt warm, "I'm fine. Don't worry."
"How could this happen?" Dou Dou murmured, looking at Xin Meng intently, and asked unwillingly, "Why are you the only one who suddenly lost his memory?"
"I don't know." Xin Meng glanced at him. She was already suspicious of what happened between him and Jie Zi. Seeing his persistent questioning, she said coolly, "Maybe I knew before I lost my memory. But I definitely don’t know now.”
Dou Dou's expression was a little embarrassed, he touched his nose and fell silent.
Jie Zi looked at his cowardly look and sneered.
Not wanting to dwell on this issue, Xin Meng said, "Then what? What is written on your card?"
Only then did Luo Yingying react, "Ah... Here you go, I haven't looked at it yet."
What was written on her card was: [Ghosts and humans, until all parties die, the game is over.]
"So, what is peek-a-boo? What are ghosts and humans?" Xin Meng looked at the people who suddenly fell silent in confusion.
"Hide and seek is hide and seek. One person acts as a ghost, and the others find a place to hide. If they are caught by the ghost, they are eliminated..." Luo Yingying said with difficulty.
"Is the ghost a person?" Xin Meng continued to ask.
"Usually, yes." Luo Yingying nodded.
"But it doesn't look like this from the cards," Xin Meng analyzed. "It's very likely that the opponent's number is the same as ours, or even more than ours, and if they are caught, they will not be eliminated, but will die directly. This will A threat to us."
Luo Yingying's face turned pale.
