"You know how to remove the handcuffs?" Shen Ti said suspiciously, ordinary people don't have such skills.

Wu You nodded, looked at An Wujiu, "Do you understand?"

An Wujiu thought for a while, "If we don't untie it, one of us will always foul tonight."

If Shen Ti insisted on dragging him to Room No. 7, it would be troublesome. His energy bar was only half, and if he subtracted half because of the foul, it would probably return to zero.

"Untie it." Shen Ti shrugged, "The handcuffs hurt my wrists, and I'm still thinking about what to do at night."

Wu You didn't say much, and held An Wujiu's wrist to observe the style of handcuffs on his hand. Then he took out a paper clip from the cuff of his jacket, straightened the bent part, and inserted it into the keyhole. He bent the end that had already gone in with his thumb, and tried to turn it around.

Not long after, An Wujiu heard a slight clicking sound, which was the sound of the metal card slot bouncing.

"Fortunately, it's not double insurance." Wu You pulled the ratchet, and the handcuffs were released.

So skilled

"Where's mine?" Shen Ti also brought his hand closer, as if he was afraid that he wouldn't get it.

Wu You said in a low voice that he understood, and then untied Shen Ti, and then returned the pair of handcuffs to An Wujiu, "If you exchanged these, you can open the panel and put them in your own storage threshold."

"Thank you." An Wujiu put away the handcuffs and prepared to leave. Wu You grabbed his sleeve first, "I still have something to tell you alone."

Shen Ti glanced at Wu You's hand, then yawned pretending to be tired, "I'll go back to the lounge to catch up on sleep."

It wasn't until his back disappeared at the entrance of the corridor that An Wujiu opened the door of the piano room again and brought Wu You in.

"You have changed back." Wu You said softly.

Wu You didn't notice it at the round table, but An Wujiu didn't hide his current state when he just took off the handcuffs.

"Um."

"Remember our plan?"

An Wujiu nodded, and said calmly: "Of course, I remember everything I did." After speaking, he lowered his eyes and asked Wu You, "What is the specific situation of your duel with Liu Chengwei?"

Wu You said it truthfully, omitting a lot of details, "I initiated the first round, and my health bar is already higher than him, but Yang Ming still asked Ueno to go up, too. Liu Chengwei has almost no room to fight back. It's almost over. The second round was the same, and the third round was initiated by Ueno, so I left."

An Wujiu frowned slightly, "Ueno took the initiative?"

"Well." Wu You explained, "Because Liu Chengwei suddenly asked to activate his skills at the end of the second round and took away all the materials in Ueno. I don't know why."

Hearing this, An Wujiu's brows loosened slowly, and he stopped talking.

The piano room was silent for a moment, and Wu You tentatively asked: "Then...do you want to continue?"

He wasn't sure. Because An Wujiu, who had planned with him, had no bottom line at all, and he didn't even want to win, he just wanted to play with people's hearts and take revenge.

But now

At this moment, he seemed to be the one who wanted everyone to live together.

An Wujiu remained silent for a minute.

Finally he stretched out his finger and pressed a black key on the piano.

"continue."

"But... I have no more supplies." Wu You said in a low voice, "I have used up all of them."

He lightly pressed another white key.

"You'll have it soon."

Shen Ti guessed the relationship between Wu You and An Wujiu along the way.

He had witnessed the scene where Wu You took the initiative to show favor to Yang Ming, so now he came to seek peace with An Wujiu

It was already the third day, and no one on the field said that their red and black lines had been swapped. In such a situation, there are only two possibilities, either An Wujiu has adopted a safer approach, is not in a hurry to use skills, and wants to wait until he finds the person who is most beneficial to the red and black lines before making a swap.

Another possibility is that he has already changed, and he has reached an alliance with the person who switched lanes, so the other party will remain silent.

Shen Ti fell into deep thought.

Among the few remaining people, everyone has a ulterior motive, and no one will take the initiative to expose their red and black lines to another person. After all, this is a matter of a curse relationship. Once it is said, hostility will form.

Only one person, in the only situation, was willing to switch lines with An Wujiu as soon as possible.

In other words, he hoped that An Wujiu could change the line for him.

That is Wu You who cursed Yang Ming.

It must be exchanged on the first day, otherwise it will undoubtedly die.

In the dark corridor, Shen Ti who was leaning against the wall laughed lightly. The angel lamp emits milky yellow light, illuminating the road ahead.

It turns out that this spy... has two sides.

When returning to the lounge corridor, Shen Ti saw Yang Ming standing in front of Room 7 with his hands behind his back. He also heard Shen Ti's footsteps and turned his head.

"What a coincidence, I was waiting for you."

Shen Ti didn't answer, just raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked to the reading room at the other end of the lounge porch.

This can be regarded as a kind of action language of "I would like to listen to it", and Yang Ming followed suit. The reading room was very quiet, Shen Ti sat down on the sofa, "Do you want to cooperate with me?"

"Sure enough, he is a smart man." Yang Ming sat across from him, "Then I will make a long story short, as long as you agree to form an alliance, after this round is over, I will give you one-third of the reward points."

Shen Ti stared at him with an indecipherable smile on his face.

Yang Ming guessed that he thought it was too little, and immediately said, "One-half? How about it?"

Hearing his words, Shen Ti laughed lightly, his tone was brisk, and he touched the slightly shaking red coral under his ear with one hand.

"If I can't live to the end, let alone half of it, I won't get a penny."

Obviously, this kind of simple lure method won't work for Shen Ti.

"I can promise you that I will get rid of all the people with high points, so that you can enter the top four smoothly." Probably because of the influence of work in reality, Yang Ming is very good at negotiating conditions, after all, his job is from Money comes out of the customer's pocket.

But Shen Ti is different, and Yang Ming knows this.

"Your best partner now is only me."

Shen Ti seemed to be interested all of a sudden, his charming green eyes sparkled, "Really?"

Yang Ming moved closer, his voice low and hoarse, "If I'm not wrong, your black thread is An Wujiu."

Regarding this, Shen Ti did not show any surprise on his face, instead he raised his eyebrows, "Continue."

Yang Ming is obviously extremely dissatisfied with his attitude. After all, his huge advantage has been maintained for two full days, but one of the previous bargaining chips has become a traitor, or a traitor with a red line. Fortunately, there are only two points. It is not a pity to die.

He also needs a high health backup weapon.

"I have never been able to guess your red and black lines, because you are too elusive. Even now, I don't know what your tactics are, and whether you want to win or not. But there are only eight people in total, and you can always get a rough idea if you exclude them." scope."

He said frankly: "I already know the black lines of Liu Chengwei, Ueno Dacheng and Wu You. They are Wu You, you, and Liu Chengwei respectively. The rest... An Wujiu can't curse himself. Of course I also know that I am not a curse." His people."

"Old Yu is too obvious, I'm afraid his red line is An Wujiu, then the black line will not be him, only you and Zhong Yirou are left, and Zhong Yirou will even help An Wujiu to stitch up the wound, even if he is pretending to be a good person, this It’s time to show up.”

He said the result he deduced through intelligence, and then looked at Shen Ti.

"That's right." Shen Ti was more straightforward than he imagined.

"My black thread is indeed An Wugui."

Yang Ming looked happy, "Since this is the case, it is the best choice for you to cooperate with me. An Wujiu must die, otherwise you won't even get his four points."

"Trust me, I will help you kill An Wujiu."

"It makes sense." Shen Ti snapped his fingers, "I can cooperate, but I have one request."

He smiled, "I don't need your points reward for this round. I want the last round, and all of them."

"Anyway, your reward this round must be higher than the previous round, and you won't suffer."

Yang Ming pondered for a moment, and finally agreed.

Lao Yu wouldn't side with him, let alone Zhong Yirou. Without Shen Ti as a weapon, he would definitely suffer in a duel, and he would not be able to restrain others.

They signed a contract, and Yang Ming was very shrewd, stating that Shen Ti must obey him unconditionally in the duel until the morning of the fifth day, when the holy music ended. At that time, the points will automatically fall under Shen Ti's name.

After the negotiation, Shen Ti fell asleep on the sofa directly on the grounds of being sleepy, with a pair of long legs that had no place to rest on the armrest of the sofa, and quickly fell asleep in a weird posture.

Yang Ming had no choice but to leave alone.

He walked to the living room and saw several other people were dueling, not dueling, but discussing Liu Chengwei's body.

"The energy bar above his head turned gray." Wu You said.

"What about the corpse?" Old Yu glanced at the others, "Put it back in his lounge?"

Zhong Yirou shook his head, and touched his arms with both hands, as if he had goosebumps all over his body, "No, I have to sleep when I go back at night, it's too scary."

An Wujiu leaned his back against the wall, staring at Liu Chengwei's missing eye that was far away in the duel threshold, the scarlet light curtain made his death situation more terrifying, but An Wujiu always felt that this person would suddenly come back to life , jumped up and insulted him, grabbed his collar, and spit in his face.

But he died, died in the internal struggle.

Ueno, who killed him, was still trembling aside, in a trance.

"Won't his corpse disappear from the game?" An Wujiu asked.

"Hmm..." Zhong Yirou thought for a while, "Normally not. In all the games I participated in before, dead people are no different from those who die in real life. The process of corpse decomposition is the same, and they won't disappear out of thin air. That's why it's scary."

Wu You whispered, "Aren't you a doctor?"

"I'm just a little prosthetic doctor, I'm not a forensic doctor!"

Unable to argue, they still left Liu Chengwei's body in the corner of the duel room. An Wujiu turned his head and saw Yang Ming standing at the door.

He raised his chin slightly, and said to everyone in the duel room: "It's not just a corpse."

"How to divide the supplies left by Liu Chengwei, don't you want to discuss it?"

Yang Ming directly pierced the thoughts of everyone who wanted to say but couldn't say it, then turned and walked towards the storage room. After Liu Chengwei died, all his supplies were automatically placed in the storage room, including all the supplies looted from Ueno when he activated his skills between duels .

Hearing the supplies, Ueno followed Yang Ming to the storage room like a reflex.

On the top shelf where Liu Chengwei always stores, they did see supplies, bread, water and medicine. Liu Chengwei's skill is that he can directly plunder other people's materials, so that these things are labeled with him and automatically included in his storage point.

"It's mine! He stole it from me!"

He reached up suddenly, but found that he couldn't pick up any of his supplies!

Ueno Daisei sat down on the ground, his pale lips trembling slightly.

He has zero supplies, so what if he has the ability to copy supplies

Copying is also zero...

wrong. Yang Ming frowned.

According to the rules, the material of the dead is public property.

Why can't it be picked up

He also stretched out his hand and tried it, but it didn't work.

what happened

"Excuse me, excuse me."

An Wujiu's voice came from behind Yang Ming, causing an inexplicable chill on his back.

He just watched An Wujiu stretch out his hand and took a piece of bread from the top shelf of the cabinet.

On the top of the bread is a label — An Wugui.
