Su Bai, who had almost drenched himself, sat on the edge of the bed and shook his head. The problem was now simple, and that was to find the traveler in the opposite circle.
Although, Su Bai still did not know the specific method.
When the problem was implemented into a specific plan, thinking too much would not be of much use. Su Bai also knew this.
Gradually, Su Bai felt his body suddenly lighten, and the clothes on his body also dried. He looked back at the bedside table and found that the wine bottle had appeared there again.
He knew he was back.
This time, Su Bai was very calm.
Then, a layer of yellow words appeared on the floor under his feet.
"Please go to the conference room."
Conference room?
Su Bai stretched lazily.
Damn it, are we still going to vote today?
Qin Yang died in the mission scenario, so it doesn't count?
It's already counted as a death. Can't this round of voting be delayed?
Su Bai was feeling a little resentful. He had clearly thought through a lot of things and obtained enough evidence to deduce, but now he had to face a very cruel problem.
That was, he was very likely to have the highest number of votes in this round of voting!
If that was the case, he would face the same ending as Chen Yixin. He would not be killed by the traveler on the opposite side, but by the people on his side. No matter what, as long as he died, the person on the opposite side would automatically complete the mission and return to the real world. Thinking about how the other party had taken advantage of him, he was really unwilling.
When he arrived at the cafeteria, this time, Su Bai did not go to get anything to eat. Instead, he quietly walked into the conference room. This time, Liu Tao did not sit in the last row. Instead, he sat in front.
Su Bai sat in his original seat, his knuckles constantly rubbing the surface of the table with a touch of melancholy. When he knew the door of life, he was faced with this kind of situation. Life was really strange.
Suddenly, Su Bai understood Chen Yixin's expression when she was voted the highest. That expression was different from Zhao Zhen and Qian Lan. Chen Yixin was really unwilling.
Really unwilling because she knew that she was completely different from the people who participated in the voting. Chen Yixin also knew that there were not only listeners here, there were also many ghosts who thought they were listeners!
Soon, everyone sat down.
Qin Yang was dead, Qian Lan was dead, Zhao Zhen was dead, Chen Yixin was dead. Now, there were 16 people.
Obviously, there was a ghost that was removed by the rules of the story, and it happened to be Qin Yang's appearance.
Looking around, Su Bai could not remember who the person who had suddenly disappeared was. Knowing that it was meaningless to continue thinking about it, he leaned against the table with one arm.
For some reason, Su Bai seemed very calm now. Even if he was about to be thrown to his death, he was still very calm. He no longer had the thought of dragging them down with him. Moreover, the most ridiculous thing was that he did not know which of the people in front of him were the real listeners and which were the ghosts.
Previously, when Su Bai acted up and wanted to drag Chen Yixin down with him, it was because he felt that there was no hope for him. Fortunately, Chen Yixin was indeed a listener, and a traveler at that. So from his point of view, it was not a loss for Su Bai to drag her down with him.
But now?
Liu Tao?
Xu Zhenzhen?
Su Bai was not sure if they were humans or ghosts …
If the rules of the story could create idiots like Zhao Zhen, then naturally, it could also create characters with higher IQ, such as Xu Zhenzhen and Liu Tao. Ghosts didn't know they were ghosts, and still thought they were listeners. They would still actively work for their own survival. This was the most frustrating aspect. The rules of the story had reached such a high level that even the NPCs themselves didn't know they were NPCs.
The voting list appeared. Su Bai took a pen and scanned the photos of the 16 people. Then, he casually ticked off Xu Zhenzhen's photo.
Then, the list disappeared.
Perhaps it was because of his previous narrow escape from death, this time, Su Bai did not feel any sense of danger or excitement. He was calm. If the sky wants to rain and the mother wants to marry, then so be it.
Soon, the voting results were out.
As expected, Su Bai smiled when he saw the list.
He had 14 votes.
He was elected with a high number of votes. It seemed like no one had any objections to him dying.
Hmm?
Then, Su Bai's gaze fell on another person. This person's name was "Li He". He had one vote. Xu Zhenzhen also had one vote. That was Su Bai's own vote.
Su Bai began to search through his memories. Li He. He did not have much contact with him. His impression of him was a very low-key and shy person. He did not speak much and did not communicate much. Every time, he appeared very ordinary. He did not seem like the kind of person who would hide himself. Because if he could hide himself so vividly, then he would not be a listener, but an Oscar winner.
Wait …
Su Bai's fingers suddenly pinched between his eyebrows.
Li He!
One vote!
Su Bai slowly stood up. His gaze began to wander and finally found Li He's position. He was a short man sitting in the left corner. He was very inconspicuous.
When the man saw Su Bai, he seemed to be very afraid. He immediately waved his hand.
"I didn't vote for you. I didn't vote for you. I voted for myself."
Many people in the meeting room were surprised because Su Bai was about to die. How could Li He be so useless?
However, at this moment, another scene appeared in Su Bai's mind.
When he saw Chu Zhao in the game circle, he introduced himself to Chu Zhao and said that he was Su Bai. However, Chu Zhao naturally replied, "Oh, I know your name is Qumen."
If Li He was a traveler, he should be telling him something that others could not know about according to the rules of the story. Therefore, his words and expression were modified by the rules of the story.
Otherwise, no one would suddenly be so rude and vexed to this extent to say such words at this time.
After all …
He was about to die.
But …
Eh?
Why wasn't he dead yet?
Su Bai was a little stunned.
Not only Su Bai, but everyone else also felt a little stunned. It seemed that the waiting time this time was a little too long.
Soon, another piece of white paper appeared on the table. This was the first time that two pieces of white paper had appeared in the same meeting.
There were very few words on the white paper, and the meaning was very simple:
"Because there are already deaths in this round, the person with the highest number of votes in this round will not die."
Everyone was in an uproar. How could this be the result? Then what was the point of this round of voting?
Many people immediately got up and prepared to leave. They did not even dare to look at Su Bai. Obviously, the scene of Su Bai seeking Chen Yixin to perish together with him was too frightening. They were afraid that Su Bai would find them to kill each other. Moreover, they felt that even if Su Bai were to find someone to perish together with him, it would be difficult for him to find the wrong person. After all, other than Li He, everyone else had voted for Su Bai.
However, Su Bai stood there calmly. He watched as the other listeners quickly left the meeting room. He seemed especially quiet.
Li He was not in a hurry to leave the meeting room. Instead, he continued to stay there. Su Bai's eyes narrowed slightly. His hand was already on the Hellfire shotgun at his waist.
It was almost certain that Li He was a traveler from the other side of the game circle. Then..,
As long as he killed him now …
He would be able to return to the real world. His mission would be completed. Everything would be over. He could leave this damned brainstorming game.
Could he kill someone in the hotel?
Or did he have to wait until he entered the scene?
Killing someone in the hotel …
Should …
Should be possible, right?
Su Bai's mind was in a battle. However, he remembered the voting list this time. Fortunately, the rules of the story said that because Qin Yang died in this round, no one would die in this round. Otherwise, Su Bai would have become a corpse by now. Moreover, his soul would be like Zhao Zhen and Chen Yixin, forever banished to this godforsaken place.
This result was countless times more painful than being cut into pieces.
In terms of the scene …
He did not know how the rules of the story would arrange the next scene. Su Bai still did not know. If he and Li He were not arranged to be together and were very far away, or if this Li He already knew that he was a traveler, then he would be in more danger.
Because, there were many listeners who were hostile to him. If he were to kill them in the scene, he would not have a high chance of success. Su Bai was not willing to take the risk.
However, this Li He actually did not leave. He actually gave him so much time to think?
Su Bai could not understand.
If he were to speculate Li He's thoughts with his own, it would be the same as using himself to measure others. Was Li He also considering whether to kill this guy who was missing an arm here?
Were the two people thinking the same thing?
Su Bai took a few steps forward. He was originally sitting in the last row, so he was blocked by the door of the conference room. Then, he took out the Hellfire shotgun and pointed it forward, directly approaching Li He.
Li He's body was actually trembling, but his expression was exceptionally resolute. Then, he actually made a gesture of chanting a spell with his hands open and shouted,
"Your name is Su Bai, right? I want to see if you die or if I die. Come on, let's fight!
The living leave this place.
The dead are unlucky!
Even if their souls fall here forever, it doesn't matter! "
Su Bai no longer hesitated. With a flash, he quickly approached Li He. The muzzle of the Hellfire shotgun was pressed against Li He's forehead. At the same time, a cold smile appeared on his face.
"Looks like I'm faster than you."
