"Staying at the murderer's home?" Fan Cong and Fan Dade turned to look at Chen Ge in unison.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place." Chen Ge clicked on the raincoat man's body. When the mouse moved to the man's shirt pocket, a dialog box popped up — 'You've pulled back the dead man's shirt and found a room card inside the blood-soaked pocket.'
"You can really find something!" Fan Cong leaned closer to the screen, and his face was filled with curiosity.
Placing the room card inside his backpack, Chen Ge continued to click for a long time. It was not until the sound of human heads banging against the door grew louder that he walked down the stairs with regret. "I still haven't found any knives or murder weapons. I doubt there'll be another chance like this in the future."
Chen Ge clicked on the backpack to look at the room card. The pure black card was stained with blood, and the number four was written on the back. "Fan Cong, how many hotels and hostels are there in this town?"
"Only one, the small hotel that I told you about earlier. The boss is a murderer, the chef is a madman, and all the tenants have been killed."
"Is the hotel far from the residential area?"
"It's not far, just one street away, but are you sure you want to go there?" Fan Cong did not quite understand Chen Ge's thoughts. "Haven't we just dealt with the murderer at the residential area? Now we only need to stay at the residential area to survive the night. "
Seeing that Chen Ge was still hesitating, he reached out to grab Chen Ge's shoulder. "You're not planning to … rely on this little girl to take out the whole hotel, are you?"
"We don't even have a fruit knife, so how are we supposed to deal with them?" Chen Ge controlled Xiao Bu to walk down the stairs. The strange thing was, the thumping in the background did not weaken due to the distance between them. In fact, it grew louder and louder.
"Then why are you leaving?"
"Pay attention to the background music. That knocking sound came from the neighbor's ghost. Now that the sound has become urgent, it means that after we lure the murderer into the neighbor's house, the neighbor's ghost might have gone on a rampage." Chen Ge controlled Xiao Bu to come to the first floor and looked at the dark street. "Why would people die mysteriously on the street at night? When you played before, were there any signs before you died? "
"There were no signs. He just died suddenly. There seems to be an invisible killer on the street."
"Invisible killer?" Chen Ge shook his head. "Many of the scenes in this game are probably based on what happened in real life. It's impossible for anything too ridiculous to appear."
"Big Brother, the whole town is filled with murderers and ghosts. Isn't that ridiculous enough?"
"All of that is acceptable. At least it doesn't violate the game creator's own design." Chen Ge controlled Xiao Bu to stop at the corner between the first and second floor.
Fan Cong really did not understand what Chen Ge was doing. After a long time, he finally asked, "Mr. Chen, what are you doing?"
"This is not good." Chen Ge stared at the screen and said casually, "The way a game is played usually determines how it scares the players. Did you notice that as the time of survival increases, Xiao Bu's movement speed increases?"
"That's a good thing." Fan Cong looked at Xiao Bu, who ran back and forth in the corridor, and he felt that her speed had indeed increased.
"The game creator won't be so kind. This is a hopeless game where you can't fight back. The increase in Xiao Bu's speed means that we'll run into something faster and scarier." Chen Ge held his chin with one hand. "If I'm not mistaken, after midnight, we'll have to avoid more than just murderers."
Chen Ge's words chilled Fan Cong's heart. "Murderers, ghosts, traps, and a random death mechanism — the game creator has no intention of letting the players clear the game."
"Don't treat this game as a game. Think carefully about why the game creator created this game. Only by understanding what the creator wants to express and following his thoughts can you find the answer." Chen Ge had been thinking about what the game creator wanted to express. Fan Cong was playing the game, and Chen Ge was experiencing the creator's emotions.
Any game would contain a certain kind of emotion, including resentment, anger, sadness, and so on. To his surprise, even though this game was filled with despair, it did not show any emotion. Xiao Bu was like an emotionless robot. She would not feel fear, pain, or worry for her family. She was always a bystander.
"Xiao Bu is very interesting. After seeing her stepfather's body, she even had the thought of turning him into a doll. This is definitely not a normal child, but how did she become like this? What had happened to her? Everything that I'm experiencing now, is that what Xiao Bu has experienced? "
Chen Ge was lost in thought when Fan Cong's words pulled him back to reality. "Then what should we do next?"
"Our main goal is to survive this night. The corridor is temporarily safe, so we'll stay here for now. After the neighbor's ghost comes out, we'll go to the hotel. " Chen Ge's mind was very clear. "Now the only thing I'm worried about is accidentally triggering the death mechanism when we cross the street, and we'll die for no reason."
"Is that really what you're thinking? How come I feel like you're purposely waiting for the neighbor's ghost? You want to use your own body as bait to lure it to the hotel, "Fan Cong whispered.
"It's not baiting, it's luring." Chen Ge controlled Xiao Bu to run up and down the corridor. He was already familiar with Xiao Bu's speed and running style. "This is a game where we can explore freely. We can't just stay here for one night. After luring the neighbor's ghost away, the residential area will be completely safe, and we can come back here without worry."
In the background, the thumping sound grew louder. Chen Ge moved the mouse to a comfortable position. "She should be coming soon."
Before he finished, on the screen, a woman holding her own head appeared at the corner of the second floor. Her shirt was dyed red with blood.
"A Red Specter?" Chen Ge controlled Xiao Bu to run down the corridor. He did not forget to adjust the angle to observe the female ghost holding the human head. "Including the woman in the red raincoat, this should be the second Red Specter in this small town."
The female ghost holding the human head moved very fast in the game. Chen Ge became serious as he controlled Xiao Bu to run.
In just a few seconds, Chen Ge had already controlled Xiao Bu to run out of the residential area.
There were no streetlights on the street, and it was dark. Chen Ge narrowed his eyes. He used Yin Yang Vision and barely managed to find his way through the darkness.
He controlled Xiao Bu to run toward the hotel. When he passed one of the windows, the window suddenly opened, and a hand reached out, trying to grab Xiao Bu.
Thankfully, Chen Ge had Yin Yang Vision, and his eyesight was far better than a normal person's. When he saw the hand reach out, he changed his direction and narrowly avoided it.
"The killer is hiding in the darkness!"
A drop of sweat slid down Chen Ge's forehead. Next to him, Fan Dade and Fan Cong looked at the almost black screen. They could not understand why the man before them would move the mouse and keyboard crazily.
