"You..." Wen Zheliu opened his eyes wide and looked up and down Du Zijun's appearance repeatedly, whether it was the long black waist-length hair, the pale and delicate skin, or the slender and soft body... Could it be that she or he had undergone surgery
"It's a prop, right?" He Qin answered Wen Zheliu's inner question, "Besides, the props that can achieve this effect are at least B-level or above. Mr. Du is really rich."
It's just a pity that the praise he is giving now is not what Du Zijun wants to hear.
Seeing that there was no use in covering up, Du Zijun simply sneered: "Yes, it is indeed a prop, and it is a B-level prop Niangzhongquan... At that time, I just did it for fun, so I tried to use it, but I didn't expect to enter this damn uncanny valley. The original feature of the prop that can be released when exposed to hot water is no longer there, so I have no choice but to bear this woman’s body until now.”
His experience was really a waste of time. As Wen Zheliu listened, his shock was gradually replaced by sympathy. He said, "Du... Mr. Du's current situation should be solved as long as he clears the uncanny valley, right?"
Du Zijun sneered: "Okay, just call me Miss Du. With the current state of the team, I don't want to attract their attention."

Wen Zheliu heard something in his words, so he asked, "Did you also see that there was a mole in the team?"
He Qin continued: "I think it was Miss Du's props that worked."
Du Zijun took out the telescope he had picked out first from the package and gave the two of them a look.

Wen Zheliu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Du Zijun had already used most of the times on the second day of this world's timeline.
"I guess one of these three times was aimed at me, right?" He Qin said with a smile, "It seems that he returned in vain."
Du Zijun's eyes were gloomy and he said, "Yes, you are very self-aware."
"The remaining two times are... did you look at the players on the same team?" Wen Zheliu was confused.
"No, I checked the system." Du Zijun said.
This time, even He Qin was a little surprised: "System?"
"The first time, in order to test the usage of the item, I pointed it at the system. Unexpectedly, I saw the reward for completing the level set by the system." Du Zijun said calmly, "Although I only saw one in the name of reward. A lot of data, but this is enough."
Wen Zheliu had seen the weirdness and boldness of Du Zijun's actions. Which normal person would look at his system as soon as he got the props and waste an opportunity
"Don't look at me like that, kid," Du Zijun started smoking again, "Good steel must be used on the blade. I think it's totally worth spending this opportunity."
"Then where did you use it the second time?" He Qin asked.
"The second time, I still used it on the system." Du Zijun exhaled a puff of smoke, his eyes sharp and calm, "It's just that it was used on the system after Lu Hailin Fangfei died."
Wen Zheliu's eyes lit up: "You saw the rewards for completing the level again!"
"That's right," Du Zijun said, "After the system prompted the so-called escape mode and victory mode, I used the props to check the clearance rewards again."
"—No change." He sneered. "The deaths of Lu and Lin should logically have started the team's winning mode. However, as the system prompt said, the rewards that should have become more generous were not there at all. Increase, we are still in escape mode.”
He emphasized the tone of the last few words, waiting for the surprised expressions of the two people in front of him, but he was destined to be disappointed. Wen Zheliu's face was solemn, and he turned to He Qin and said: "It seems that our guess that day was indeed true. That's right."
"Ah," He Qin said calmly, "There is indeed something wrong with the deaths of Lu Hai and Lin Fangfei."
"Ask the reason in advance -" Wen Zheliu thought in his heart, "No matter how you think about the reason for the system to do this, it is to deceive ordinary players and use an unfounded winning mode to sow discord, right? Think about it again, if yesterday We were not here at night. Zhou Yao and Mu Tuo went out to watch the night. Mr. Du was blocked downstairs by a ghost who smashed the wall... The remaining people were either moles or people who simply did not have enough strength to stop the eyeless monster who came to attack. , Zhou Qing will definitely die. Once she dies, the team will immediately fall apart and everyone will be in danger."
He Qin said: "It is always best to break through a pile of loose sand one by one. The bosses in this world are really deliberate and have a thorough understanding of human nature."
Du Zijun was already listening dumbfounded. He chewed his cigarette and looked at the two people left and right for a long time before reacting: "So... how did you rule out my identity as the mole?"
Wen Zheliu's smile was bright and clean, and she showed her white teeth to him: "Because of your special status! The effect of Niangdiao Spring water is permanent in the current Uncanny Valley. I'm afraid even the unknown boss can't see through you. His true identity, let alone choosing you to be the mole; as for Zhou Qing, she and Zhou Yao are one and the same. If she were the mole, then the eyeless monster last night would not have chosen her as a breakthrough point. Zhou Yao agrees. . As for the remaining people... Lu Lin exited. Everyone in Gao Xinghan's circle was very suspicious. Needless to say, the young man with almost zero presence was either 100% innocent or 100% guilty. As a mole, Muto cannot escape suspicion..."
He quickly and clearly counted everyone in a circle, and finally concluded: "There are only five people who can be confirmed now. You, me and my brother, brother and sister Zhou Qing and Zhou Yao are gone, so we must not let Gao Xinghan's circle When people hear the evidence that Zhou Qing and others searched, the less they know, the better."
Du Zijun finished processing this information in his mind, and his face became a little ugly. He spat: "They are obviously all human beings, but they still do these twists and turns..."
"Perhaps, we have our own clearance conditions, and spy players have their own clearance conditions." Wen Zheliu smiled helplessly, "Don't the Holy Sisters expect us to kill each other?"
Du Zijun nodded: "Okay... Even if you guys have passed the Qi, what do you need me to do now?"
He Qin suddenly said: "It's almost time for dinner, it's time to ask Marianne to come down."
Du Zijun smiled, turned around and walked out of the kitchen door without saying a word.
Looking at his leaving figure, Wen Zheliu said calmly: "I still want to know one thing, that is, what kind of props is the presence guy holding in his hand?"
"Shh," He Qin raised a finger and pressed it lightly on Wen Zheliu's lips. The swirling light in his eyes was as drunk as wine, "Let's go have dinner. You have too many things on your mind. Take it easy." Wait a minute. Today’s dinner is said to have cream of mushroom soup, do you like it?”
Wen Zheliu's Adam's apple moved, and heat hit his cheeks. He didn't dare to look at He Qin anymore.
"Okay, okay..."
He Qin held his hand as if he were holding a child much younger than him - which was indeed the case. In fact, he was eight years older than Wen Zheliu. "Let's go then, my teammates have delayed enough." Too much, it’s time for us to replace him.”
The information exchange between players will be disrupted by the sound of cooking. No matter what time and space we are in, hot meals are always the most attractive to humans. Ke Wenyan's lips moved, as if he was dissatisfied with Du Zijun's move to call Marianne, but when he saw the fragrant cream of mushroom soup on the table, and the expectant light shining in the eyes of the players, he also didn't There was nothing more to say, so he could only pick up the spoon in silence.
Wen Zheliu's parents were both from the northwest, but he accepted the fresh and sweet taste well. Seeing that he liked it, He Qin pushed his share between the two of them and said warmly: "Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry, it's okay." have."
The meal passed with the sound of clinking tableware and swallowing and chewing. After the meal, Marianne was about to push away the stool and stand up. Zhou Qing suddenly stopped her: "By the way, Miss Marianne, I want to ask you. When did you move here?”
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Marianne asked in confusion.
Zhou Qing hurriedly defended: "No, I just think this house seems to be a bit old, so I was curious..."
"Ah, it doesn't matter." Marian smiled tolerantly, "This house belongs to my cousin. He is a gentleman, but he has no children. He only has a distant relative like me. After he passed away, this house This house was originally going to be owned by the church, but I spent money to buy it back and then renovated it.”
Zhou Yao gave a timely compliment from the side: "So, what hangs on the fireplace is your family's emblem? What a grand and grand family."
The family emblem he was talking about was a pattern that could be seen everywhere in the room, an eagle holding golden ears of wheat in its mouth. It is not only found on the fireplace, but also carved on the handrails of the stairs. It also stands on the desk in the study. Even the blurred carpet pattern can vaguely see its shadow.
Marianne paused, and after a moment, she nodded slightly: "Thank you for the compliment."
Zhou Qing pursed his lips and threw the spoon into the empty bowl, looking distracted. Mu Tuo also lowered his head and folded the already neat napkin again. Only Zhou Yao looked on with his face as usual. Marianne's slender figure disappeared at the top of the stairs.
Wen Zheliu sensitively noticed something, but now, the night patrol time was coming.
"In order to avoid conflicts, the members of the night watch should be distributed according to their heads." Mu Tuo said solemnly, "Zhou Qing took the initiative to ask to go. For the remaining people, should we draw lots or draw lots?"
With ready-made paper at hand, it was more convenient to draw lots. Since Mu Tuo and Zhou Yao had already gone out on the first night, they automatically quit drawing lots. Among the remaining people, Wen Zheliu, He Qin, Xiong Lin, Bai Hao, Ke Wenyan, and the presence guy got the spot for tonight's night watch.
"What bad luck..." Bai Hao muttered while going to the storage room on the third floor to get a torch.
Wen Zheliu asked the presence man kindly: "Um, I forgot your name before, can you tell me again?"
The presence-conscious guy stood in front of the window. His skin was originally very white. Logically speaking, it should be more conspicuous by the dark window. But Wen Zheliu glanced at him, but he didn't look at him. Like a ball of transparent ink, it spreads quietly in the air.
"My name is Xie Yuanyuan, endless flow," Xie Yuanyuan said, and kindly added an idiom to help Wen Zheliu remember, "It doesn't matter if you can't remember it, I've long been used to it."
"No, Xie Yuanyuan, right? I remember it." Wen Zheliu recited the name several times in his mind firmly, "I won't forget it next time!"
He Qin came from behind. He had just told Du Zijun to pay attention not to let the inner ghost have private contact with Zhou Qing, Zhou Yao and the others. He would wait until tonight to discuss everything.
Bai Hao brought a torch and gave one to everyone. Muto warned from the side: "As long as there is danger, wave the torch immediately and try to circle around in place to prevent the monster from discovering the flaw."
Wen Zheliu held the torch and suddenly smelled a faint fragrance.
The smell seemed to be that of roses, but it was no sweeter or sweeter than real roses. Instead, it had a bit of a warm and tacky cheap pink smell, like a layer of dead white flour smeared on the dried flowers that still had lingering fragrance. It couldn't be said to be pungent, but it was definitely not pungent either. Smells good.
"This is..." He frowned, looking around, and finally discovered that it was the smell of oilcloth wrapped around the torch.
It's strange, where did the oilcloth get such a powdery smell...
He wanted to sniff a few more times, but Bai Hao had already opened the door and shouted to the remaining people: "Hey, let's go!"
Wen Zheliu had no choice but to follow the example of others and light the torch, and walked behind with He Qin.
The oilcloth was burning, and the weird fragrance became stronger and stronger. It made people feel dizzy. Bai Hao turned around and said, "There are a lot of debris piled up in the storage room on the third floor. Maybe some perfume accidentally got on it." I got this smell only after using a torch."
"This smells too bad..." Zhou Qing covered his nose and said.
He Qin and Wen Zheliu walked side by side. He Qin only occasionally reminded Wen Zheliu to pay attention to the road under his feet, and he didn't say much.
A few people were walking along the forest path, one foot deep and one foot shallow. The dew was cool in the middle of the night, the breeze was biting, and the firelight was swaying. At this time, Xiong Lin, who was walking in the front, suddenly said: "Wait a minute. There are traces!”
Wen Zheliu and He Qin stepped forward to take a look, only to see a large drag mark on the muddy ground, extending along with the swaying grass blades, and finally disappeared into the dark dense forest.
"...Want to go over and take a look?" Ke Wenyan said hesitantly.
Bai Hao rolled his eyes angrily: "Forget it, this is obviously the trace of an eyeless monster crawling, okay! How do people die in horror movies? It's not because they are too curious!"
Zhou Qing sneered: "But don't forget, the key to unlocking the next stage of the main mission is probably on the monster. If you don't look for it now, when will you get another chance?"
Wen Zheliu was a little surprised. At the critical moment, the courage and resolute determination shown by this girl were actually stronger than those of several grown men. He smiled and agreed: "Miss Zhou is right. The more it is at this time, the more important it is to catch it." Seize the opportunity.”
"But… "
He Qin stood behind Wen Zheliu, holding a torch in one hand and a hatchet in the other. His deep outline showed a sinister coldness under the firelight. He chuckled and ordered: "Let's set off now."
Several male players swallowed their saliva. Although they were unwilling to do so, they really couldn't disobey He Qin's order, so they had to reluctantly move in the direction of the drag marks.
