Xu Ziyue held the puppet in one hand, held him in his arms, pressed his hand with the other, and imprisoned his body movements.
Yan Shi happened to turn around. He noticed that Jin'er was standing still, so he said first: "Then let's go up and tidy up first, and then we'll gather later." The reason for this was just to get out of Jin'er's sight first , so as not to be noticed by Jin'er on their route.
Jin'er silently watched several people walk upstairs slowly.
Yan Shi took a few steps and felt something was wrong. He turned around and looked at Xu Ziyue who was not following them upstairs, hugging the doll tightly, and asked, "Aren't you coming up?"
"I'll wait for you to come down." Xu Ziyue shook his head, "I have nothing to prepare."
Yan Shi doubted whether Xu Ziyue really didn't understand what he meant or if he didn't.
However, looking at Shang Jin'er's eyes, Yan Shi silently swallowed the words on his lips.
Yan Shi said, "Then you just wait here."
Yan Shi and the others walked upstairs, but couldn't help but glance at Xu Ziyue, who was impossible to see.
"Could he be plotting something with that Jin'er?" Tang Yunyun asked suspiciously.
When Lu Xiuyang heard this, he wondered if he was deliberately cooperating with "ghosts" behind their backs to keep himself safe
This has been the case with previous games as well. Some players will assist NPCs to deal with other players in exchange for survival conditions. But the risk of this kind of thing has always been great, because there will always be NPCs who go back on their word and rely on their emotions. But even so, facing the desperate situation of not knowing how to clear the game, there are still players who will do it.
Lu Xiuyang couldn't help but think about it.
Even if Xu Ziyue didn't intend to betray them, what if Xu Ziyue had already been controlled by that puppet? In this case, all their conversations and discussions will be "monitored".
And in this way, Lu Xiuyang, who planned to get back his doll clothes, was probably the first to sacrifice.
If the time comes, Xu Ziyue will tell Jin'er about this.
He Lu Xiuyang was finished.
The more Lu Xiuyang thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, and he didn't even care about Yan Shi shouting after him.
He went downstairs quickly, and the sound of rapid footsteps gradually approached Xu Ziyue.
Xu Ziyue breathed a sigh of relief when Yan Shi and the others disappeared from the corner of the corridor. He didn't hold the puppet so strongly anymore.
On the other hand, Jin'er withdrew their gazes from Yan Shi and the others, nodded to Xu Ziyue, and bowed politely before turning to leave, showing no remorse.
"What the hell is going on over there?" Xu Ziyue breathed a sigh of relief, and when he saw Jin'er leave, he lowered his head and asked the puppet a question.
The puppet didn't speak, and still pointed to that direction... Fortunately, he seemed to know that Xu Ziyue had already received the message he was about to transmit, so he put down his hand this time.
Xu Ziyue stayed downstairs because he wanted to see what the puppet told him to look at. As far as the previous incident was concerned, the puppet did not harm him—except for the cold.
That was an accident.
But when Xu Ziyue turned around and was about to walk towards the corridor, a burst of hurried footsteps came from upstairs and gradually approached.
Then there was Lu Xiuyang's expression full of tension and panic.
Xu Ziyue: "???"
Yan Shi and the others chased Lu Xiuyang downstairs, and saw Xu Ziyue and Lu Xiuyang standing there face to face, Xu Ziyue was dazed, and Jin'er had disappeared.
"Where's Jin'er?" Lu Xiuyang tightened his voice, and the tone of his words was different from before.
"She went up when she saw you..." Xu Ziyue frowned and took a step back. Subconsciously, he stood a little further away. Lu Xiuyang looked very wrong.
Yan Shi seemed to be used to it. He stepped forward and patted Lu Xiuyang on the shoulder, pulled him to the side, and whispered to Lu Xiuyang, "Don't think too much. It just happened that Jin'er left, so it's convenient for us to do anything. Don't worry, it's fine. already."
Lu Xiuyang took a deep breath and calmed down a little.
Hu Beijia station was relatively close, and he could hear what Yan Shi said clearly. So she asked Xu Ziyue, "Which direction did Jin'er go just now?"
Xu Ziyue pointed to one of the two corridors, which, unfortunately, happened to be the side with Jin'er's studio.
Guan Chengze said: "Then go to the other side and see it as soon as possible. After reading it... I'll find someone to take Jin'er away later, and let's go there." After speaking, he walked to the other side of the corridor first. After two steps, seeing that no one else moved, he urged again, "Let's go."
Xu Ziyue hugged his puppet tightly again, and walked behind Guan Chengze to the aisle that the puppet pointed to.
Yan Shi walked beside Lu Xiuyang and couldn't help but think a little more.
Lu Xiuyang's current situation is really dangerous.
If this is the case for a long time, he has come to the conclusion in his own thoughts that he will not live long... Then Lu Xiuyang is a very dangerous companion.
Because he can't keep up with the minds of all people.
And often when someone is in a desperate situation, he will want to pull the people around him into the water together.
And this is often the most dangerous.
When there was a locked room, the puppet raised his hand again. Xu Ziyue calmly pressed the hand of the puppet back, and then wrote down the position.
"Let's go to the location where you saw the body yesterday. Where is it?" Hu Beijia asked.
"That's the room in front." This time, the room where Xu Ziyue found the body was tightly locked, and the stench was not as unbearable as it was yesterday.
Tang Yunyun covered her nose with an expression of disgust, "What kind of smell is this? It makes me want to vomit."
Xu Ziyue said, "It's fine today, but yesterday it stinks."
"There are two situations, one is taken away, the other is that the door is closed, there is no ventilation here, and we can't smell it clearly enough." Yan Shi turned to look at Lu Xiuyang, who was restless, "Can you see if this door can be opened?"
There was a hint of reluctance on Lu Xiuyang's face.
"Come on, look at it, there's another side." Hu Beijia's words made Lu Xiuyang take out a small wire from his pocket.
I don't know how Lu Xiuyang did it. After a while, the door opened.
This time Xu Ziyue didn't look at it. But Yan Shi pushed the door open directly.
An old room with no corpses, but the smell still lingers in the room, which is disgusting.
"It looks like it was taken away." Yan Shi covered his nose and walked in, then flipped over his things freely to check. Hu Beijia also walked in and checked the room.
"I'm watching the wind at the door!" Tang Yunyun stood at the door and didn't plan to go in. Yan Shi said "um" without raising his head.
Several people rummaged for a while, Xu Ziyue's throat was itchy, he covered his mouth and sneezed a few times. The puppet he was holding touched Xu Ziyue's arm more and more involuntarily.
It looked like he was going to give Xu Ziyue a pat on the back, but unfortunately his hands were short and his body was small, so he couldn't pat him, so he could only use Xu Ziyue's arm instead.
"There is something under the bed." Guan Chengze said, then he took a broom from the corner and swept out what he said under the bed.
It's a very strange material. The overall shape is like a hollow cylinder like a broken broken porcelain jar, but on the surface it looks like the paint on it has fallen off due to age. Like a peeling wall, mottled and incomplete.
The overall color is brownish red, but there is also light red, and the part that has fallen off and exposed a few inside is dark red.
Yan Shi took it over and looked at it for a while, his brows tightening more and more.
He loosened his hand, and the thing fell to the ground with a dull sound.
"It's not broken, and it doesn't sound like porcelain..." The touch is also a little strange, even a little elastic.
