On the fifth day, the temperature dropped significantly.
The vast white wind and snow covered the sky and the earth, and the field of vision was all foggy white.
Reina, who was carrying a feather duster, stopped waving her hands, attracted by the snow scene outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
She stared hysterically for a moment, exhaled lightly, and said, "The mountain is covered by heavy snow, it's so cold..."
Bo Ye said, "Help me turn up the central air conditioner a few degrees, thank you."
"..." Reina turned around and looked at the people sitting in the living room warming the fire.
She turned her eyes to Bo Ye and Tang Zhi for a moment, then turned her head to turn on the air conditioner without saying anything with a cold face.
"You didn't even tease you?" Gu Meng peeled the orange, splashed orange juice on her snow-white fingers, and shook her head in amazement.
Bo Ye raised his hand and poked Tang Zhi's cheek, and said flatly, "It's not because of this baby."
Last night, after seeing Tang Zhi's madness, Lei Na vowed never to touch his man again.
Whether it was intentional or not, Zhou Chengshuo and the guy who killed Matt went downstairs a bit late today. As soon as they met the men who were chatting in the living room, the atmosphere around them froze for a moment and became a little awkward.
When Gu Meng and others ran around last night, these people didn't make any movement in the room, as if they were isolated from the world.
Gu Meng didn't care, if it wasn't for someone important to him, he wouldn't bother to rescue him.
He continued to peel the orange, saw that the flesh was bright red and plump, gave it to Enjin, and threw the orange peel into the fireplace.
There was a burst of green fragrance in the living room.
In the first few days in the game, everyone lived in peace and harmony, but once something happened, it was inevitable that their nature would be exposed.
Peter Pan glanced at Zhou Chengshuo, with a bit of disdain in his heart. He usually directs here and there, as if he is in charge of the overall situation, but when something goes wrong, he hides without a shadow.
It can be seen that he is a flamboyant and flashy person.
Perhaps Zhou Chengshuo also realized that his image had fallen, so he showed embarrassment.
"You guys are so early?" He walked to the sofa on the other side and said with a chuckle, "Yesterday I was so lazy that I went to bed early after returning to my room, and I didn't wake up until mid-sun."
Gu Meng didn't expose him, and said in a perfunctory way: "It's a good thing to sleep."
Seeing that the other party didn't take the initiative to mention what happened last night, Zhou Chengshuo was afraid of missing some important clues, and felt as uncomfortable as a cat scratching.
He wandered his eyes for a while, and finally couldn't help asking: "Did anything happen last night?"
Gu Meng didn't hide it, and told all the rules that she had come across last night.
At the end, he said: "That's all I know, everyone, don't step on the minefield in the future."
The few people who hid in the room last night listened to Gu Meng's description. On the one hand, they were glad that they locked the door last night and did not go out. On the other hand, they felt dignified.
They optimistically thought that it was good to keep to themselves, but they never expected that once they provoked a female ghost in the game, the consequences would be so serious, not to mention being chased and running around the room, and whether they could escape was still a problem.
Not everyone has good luck like Gu Meng.
"So..." Just as everyone was contemplating, a weak female voice sounded in the living room.
The man asked Gu Meng, "Have you not been torn apart by the female ghost?"
Gu Meng stopped peeling the oranges, looked up, and saw Lulu with thick black and smoky makeup staring at him intently.
The eyes wearing exaggerated blue-green colored contact lenses looked a little hollow at the moment, vaguely hiding unknown emotions.
Gu Meng didn't go into details, and patiently re-explained: "In the end, the shadow turned back to my side, which means that the game of the caged bird is over, and the female ghost left."
The existence of Lulu reminded Zhou Chengshuo. He leaned back on the sofa, heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Isn't there still a chance of being reborn? Why are you so serious? Even if you are caught by a female ghost, in the end What will happen?"
But the little freckles were worried, glanced at Lulu, and whispered: "Is rebirth really free of side effects? I always feel... there is no such good thing."
Lulu didn't seem to hear, she kept staring at Gu Meng.
On the other side, Gu Meng felt uncomfortably stared at by the girl's blatant stare. She stuffed the orange into her mouth, said a few words in Enjin's ear, and got up.
Zhou Chengshuo patted his thigh suddenly, thinking he had thought of a good solution, and suggested: "If you are really afraid, you might as well stay together all the time in the future, since we are all grasshoppers on the same rope anyway, the female ghost is in danger." Once we come here, it will be convenient for everyone to get together to play the game of bird in a cage, so that it will be difficult to find a partner to pass the shadow after placing an order, what do you think?"
Qiu Tsai seconded: "I agree, the biggest worry is getting orders."
"It's not that good." Bo Ye stood up, gave Tang Zhi a hand, and said calmly, "This kind of game can only be played with people you trust."
Who knows if after taking over the shadow, it can be passed to the end, and those who got rid of the shadow might just be running for their lives.
Zhou Chengshuo's expression changed, and he said in a low voice, "Do you believe us?"
"Yes." Bo Ye said.
"..." Zhou Chengshuo had never seen such a straightforward boy, and felt that the other party didn't take him seriously, and he had some opinions in his heart.
After Gu Meng and the others left, Qiu Zai hesitated and said to Zhou Chengshuo: "Brother Zhou... we are so passive, maybe it's not okay? They obviously don't plan to take us to play, and they will seize the opportunity..."
Zhou Chengshuo raised his hand to stop him from continuing, and said, "Don't conflict with them, I believe Gu Meng will share the clues, what we know just now is enough for us to last till the end."
Qiu Zai pondered for a moment, and then said: "Okay, Brother Zhou, I'll listen to you."
He turned to look at the snow scene outside, and muttered to himself: "In other words, after getting the shadow, you will be a normal person. Normal people...can you get out of this ghost place?"
According to the previous description of the guy who killed Matt, they drove around the community for a long time and couldn't get out, which meant that the player's activities were restricted to a certain area, but what if they returned to their normal status
"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Chengshuo squinted at him, and said with a smile, "What? Thinking about how to pass the level?"
Qiu Zai quickly apologized and said with a smile: "How can I? It's just my wooden fish brain."
Ever since she heard Gu Meng's words, Lulu has been in a daze, and she can't stop talking.
The guy who killed Matt worriedly straightened her hair and said, "Sister, what are you mumbling about?"
Lulu said: "Why is it just me? I'm so unwilling... so unwilling..."
Seeing his younger sister's expressionless face, the boy Shamate's heart sank.
According to the angle of the Polaroid picture, Gu Meng and the others found a certain room on the third floor.
The window of the room is on the south side, and there is a bed next to the window.
Gu Meng stood at the end of the bed, held the photo in her hand, and compared it with the scenery downstairs.
When he saw the white fence gate in the yard, he said, "It's this room."
Bo Ye asked Angela who was following, and said, "Sister... no, brother, you said last night that there were people walking around on the third floor?"
Angela was speechless for two seconds, and said, "Yes, I can't see clearly because the lights are off, but I'm sure there are people walking around."
At the end, add a sentence: "More than one person."
Tang Zhi said: "Except for us, the other players are locked in the room, who else can be in this room?"
Gu Meng regained consciousness by the window and said, "Xiuyi and Xiaozhi?"
"It's definitely not those two children." Angela lifted her ponytail and said with her head held high, "Children will definitely make noises, and their shapes are not right. I can feel that they are two adults. The weird thing is that they There is no sound at all in the dark."
"Hey..." Peter Pan whispered next to her, with a dissatisfied expression, and said, "If you're a man, don't pout your mouth to show cuteness and brush your hair. You're very deceptive, do you know that?"
Angela sent him his ideal sister, but who knew that she broke his illusion by herself.
Therefore, the young boy is full of resentment at this moment, expressing in his heart that he cannot accept it.
Angela glanced at him sideways: "If you don't like it, don't look at it, and I didn't flick your hair to be cute."
The original owner of this body has a lot of habitual small movements, not only that, she has also formed a style of dressing, and even liking for dolls is beyond her control.
"I've been pretending to be a cute girl to win my favor." Pan Peter said angrily, "You are really better than an online scammer."
"..."
Enjin ignored the noisy two people, took the photo from Gu Meng, glanced downstairs, gestured for height with one hand, and said: "That person should be lying on the window sill facing down to take the photo."
Gu Meng saw that the angle of view was indeed very low, stuck on the window sill.
"No wonder the picture looks furtive," he commented.
The room is quite satisfactory, but it looks better than the room they live in, even the bed sheets are silk.
"Compared with the environment in the basement, it's really a sky and a ground." Lori walked around the room and looked around, "Are you sure it's where the twins' biological mother lives?"
"It's not normal to live in the basement." Bo Ye had been to this room as early as the first day, but he didn't pay much attention at that time, he just looked through it.
"There are no personal items here." He said, "It may have been moved to the basement."
"Could that woman be a surrogate?" Peter Pan asked on a whim.
"It looks like someone is deliberately embarrassing this woman." Bo Ye said, "But why abuse a surrogate? Is it to punish her for getting too close to the male master?"
Eun Jin looked at that photo repeatedly, staring at the expressions of the man and woman in the photo, and said, "They like each other."
"Isn't this nonsense?" Bo Ye chuckled lightly, "How can there be a couple who don't like each other?"
"It's not the feeling that comes out naturally after a long relationship between husband and wife." Enjin handed over the Polaroid to Bo Ye, and said, "Most of the ambiguous elements are, obviously, the feeling of heartbeat."
Bo Ye took the photo, but couldn't appreciate the subtle difference, and said, "Excuse me, don't husbands and wives always feel their hearts beat when they look at each other?"
As he spoke, he looked at Tang Zhi and confirmed, "Isn't it?"
Tang Zhi blushed slightly, lowered his head, and walked away.
"..."
The group was silent for two seconds, and then "hissed" gasped.
Peter Pan hugged himself tightly, stroking the goosebumps on his arms up and down, and said, "Brother Ye, don't talk about love suddenly, my teeth are sore."
"It's really a little prince living in a fairy tale book... Every time I look at each other, I can't help but be moved. Only you and Candi can do that..." Gu Meng said coldly, "Since I've been sensible, my father and my mother have never met each other. I can't wait to strangle each other to death, this is the way of getting along as a couple in life."
Enjin glanced at Gu Meng.
Looking at the photo, Bo Ye said, "Well, Lily's temperament in the photo is indeed a little different from when we first met."
Gu Meng walked to his side, looked at the photo and said, "This period is obviously still in the state of being a little bird, but when we met last time, it was even more powerful."
It can be speculated that Lily and the male host in the photo are not that familiar with each other, and Lily is probably in a period of love, which is why she behaves so docile and pleasant.
Bo Ye and Gu Meng looked at the photo and thought for a while, then looked at each other and understood the meaning of Enjin's words.
They said at the same time: "The male master's cheating partner is Lily?"
Peter Pan said in astonishment: "So this is a scene where the mistress overthrows the main palace and captures the crown prince?"
Enjin nodded and said, "Lily is not a good person."
Tang Zhi saw a few plush toys hanging here and there in the closet, and suddenly something flashed through his mind.
He hurriedly said: "Do you know that the "め" in "かごめ" has another meaning? "
"かごめかごめ" is that classic cage song.
Gu Meng spread her hands and said, "Young master, who else do you think besides Bo Ye and En Jin would understand?"
Tang Zhi explained: ""かご" is a cage, and "め" can be understood as the kind of mesh in the gap of the cage. In addition, "め" also means a woman, a wife..."
Just as he was about to continue, the house shook without warning.
Tang Zhi hurriedly supported the closet door beside him, his train of thought was temporarily interrupted.
Feeling the vibration from the soles of his feet, he frowned and said, "Something went wrong."
In the twins' room on the second floor, Xiuyi struggled and cried unceasingly.
Above him, a woman with smoky makeup tightly strangled his delicate neck and pressed him against the bed.
"I can't be the only one who has an accident, I'm not reconciled... I'm not reconciled..." Facing the crying child, Lulu not only remained indifferent, but showed a sinister smile instead.
When everyone broke into the room, what they saw was such a scene, and they were horrified.
The boy and Qiu Zai stood in front, and rushed forward to push the crazy girl away.
"Sister! What are you doing!" The young man was driven into a nervous breakdown by his abnormal sister, looking at the crazy girl as if he didn't know her.
Lulu looked at the boy, her eyes sparkled with excitement, she patted her chest and said, "Brother, let the female ghost come to me again, I will definitely escape this time! Haha! I still have a chance, don't listen to what they say The side effects after rebirth, I am still the same as everyone else, still the same!"
She randomly swept around in the crowd, then pointed at the little freckles and the others, and said with a big laugh: "Or let the female ghost go to them, let them experience the feeling of being torn apart, so that they won't always hide behind their backs and say I said bad things, so we are all the same, hahahaha... are all the same!"
Little Freckles and Steel Tooth Girl huddled tightly together, their faces were pale. After they were named by Lulu, they just felt unlucky. After scolding a crazy woman, maybe they were afraid that what Lulu said would come true, so they hurriedly hid back in the room.
The chaotic scene did not subside until a quarter of an hour later.
In the twins' room, Bo Ye rubbed the center of his eyebrows with some headaches, and said: "We don't take the initiative to cause trouble, our teammates will help to cause trouble, why don't we lock these two children up and protect them."
Gu Meng hugged Xiuyi and said, "Shut up? You treat them as caged birds..."
An unintentional sentence seemed to awaken something, and Gu Meng stopped halfway.
Bo Ye and Tang Zhi also looked at him at the same time, thoughtful.
"Gu Meng, Gu Meng, it hurts..."
Everyone was brought back to their senses by Xiuyi's cry of pain, and they saw the child pointing at the red marks on his neck and acting like a baby to Gu Meng.
Gu Meng felt a little distressed, and blew two breaths towards that place.
"Where did you go last night?" Gu Meng asked Xiuyi, and took the opportunity to ask when he caught someone, "I just opened the door, why did I disappear in a blink of an eye?"
Xiu Yi pouted and said, "Go back to the room and sleep."
Gu Meng looked at him suspiciously, knowing that there would be no result after questioning, so she just skipped this question.
Bo Ye clapped his hands towards Xiuyi, and regardless of the child's distressed face, he hugged him involuntarily.
The tall man walked to the window with the child in his arms, and it was rare for him to look warm, the picture was pleasing to the eye.
Bo Ye asked the child: "Do you like Lily?"
Xiuyi blinked her big dark eyes, neither nodded nor shook her head.
Bo Ye changed the phrase and said, "Is Lily treating you and Xiaozhi well?"
"Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's not." Xiuyi said to Bo Ye like whispering.
"Oh?" Bo Ye patted him on the back as a reward, and continued to ask, "When will it be good?"
Xiuyi squinted her eyes and smiled, covered her mouth and said, "When Dad is around."
When the others heard the words, they knew it clearly, and they confirmed their previous conjecture even more.
First of all, it is certain that Lily is not the biological mother of the twins.
"Then what will Lily do to you when Dad is away?" Gu Meng found a silk square scarf, shook her hand, and walked towards Xiuyi.
Xiuyi glanced at the square scarf, leaned over her body as if avoiding it, and kept Gu Meng away: "No leopard print, no, it's too sexy, no."
Everyone: "..."
Children, do you know what is "sexy"
Gu Meng tugged at his ears, and tied the leopard-print silk scarf around his neck without any explanation, to protect the injured part.
"When Dad is away..." Xiuyi scratched her face, Tong Yin said innocently, "Lily will ignore me and Xiaozhi, and will throw us into a cabinet and lock us up."
Peter Pan stared wide-eyed in surprise, and said, "Is this child abuse?"
Gu Meng patted Xiuyi's head reassuringly, and said, "Did you tell Dad?"
Xiuyi leaned her head back on Bo Ye's shoulder, smiled and shook her head.
"Can you laugh?" Peter Pan muttered, "What a strong boy..."
Angela looked around and asked, "Where is Xiaozhi?"
Hearing the sound, everyone looked around the room, but they really didn't see the twin brothers.
Gu Meng had a flash of inspiration, and quickly said: "Could it be that you are playing with a rabbit doll downstairs?"
"If the doll falls down..." Enjin said, "it means that the female ghost is about to come out."
Everyone hurried out to check the situation downstairs, but when they were about to reach the stairs, the door of a certain room was suddenly slowly pushed open.
Accompanied by a strong smell of blood.
Everyone slowed down and walked forward cautiously. After a while, they saw the person who came out of the room was Little Freckle.
The girl stood in the middle of the aisle, looking dazed, as if she had lost her soul.
In addition, blood was splattered everywhere on the pale yellow hair that lacked pigment, the pink face, and the clothes.
Gu Meng and the others stopped in place, looking at this girl, they understood that everything had already happened.
"I didn't do it on purpose..." The girl looked down at her blood-stained hands, at a loss, and said, "I'm just... too scared..."
