Lu Li was squatting in the alley to waste time. Suddenly, he heard the shrill sound of a police siren.
Only then did he suddenly remember that he had overlooked something. The last two hours of the killing game were the most difficult to endure. Finding a place to hide was not a bad idea, but the place to hide was not from these weaklings.
The siren reminded him that the entire city's police force had started to move out.
Lu Li didn't have time to worry about it. He quickly left the alley. It was a dead end. If he was blocked in there, he would definitely die. Moreover, he couldn't explain why he was staying in a small alley.
After coming out, there were police cars roaring on the road from time to time. These were vehicles that had long been eliminated. It was said that they flourished more than two hundred years ago.
Lu Li avoided them as much as possible. At this time, no matter how he pretended to be, he would be questioned if he walked on the street in the middle of the night. If he was seen through, the points that he had accumulated with great difficulty would go down the drain.
At first, there were only a few police cars, but later, there were more and more of them.
Lu Li even saw a few players being stopped by the police. In the end, they were either beaten to death by the police, or killed while running away. He began to panic a little.
For this game, Lu Li thought that his biggest advantage was his mental strength. Then, he was familiar with some of the rules of the game. The strategies that he had read in his previous life were actually not very useful. After all, this was a highly intelligent killing game.
Now, even if he had a strong mental strength, he couldn't stay calm.
Once, even a police officer saw him. Fortunately, when they were about to question him, another player suddenly ran away, successfully helping Lu Li attract the aggro.
Lu Li had to escape to a more remote place in the city. Behind him, the players who hid in the corners of the wall thinking that they could escape were pulled out and executed on the spot. The scene was extremely tragic.
Dawnlight was a game that didn't torture the players too much. After all, the game had to attract players.
However, in such a special scenario, the players would no longer be treated like God. The game company was trying to torture the players.
Perhaps some people might think that this would be boycotted by players, but in reality, this type of death game was extremely popular. The more bloody and cruel it was, the more it would attract players.
For example, the storyline quests that would be released in the future would be similar to a small dungeon, a novel setting, or a movie. After players entered, they would have to complete certain quests to obtain rewards. These types of dungeons were mostly filled with death and blood.
While he was thinking, Lu Li had almost finished running the entire street.
At the end of the road was an even wider road that was densely packed with police cars. They had even begun to enter the residential area, going from house to house to conduct a thorough investigation. It seemed that they did not intend to leave any way out for the players.
Lu Li glanced at the time. There was still more than an hour left.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a small stall by the roadside, and his eyes immediately lit up.
It was an old man, definitely an NPC. He was standing in the cold wind, trembling as he roasted sweet potatoes. There were very few people on the street in the middle of the night, but for the sake of living, he could only continue to persevere and strive to sell out the roasted sweet potatoes. The more he sold, the less he would lose.
"Sir, I have something to discuss with you." Lu Li walked over, picked up a sweet potato, and skillfully peeled the skin to eat it.
"What do you want? You can't be a freeloader." The old man looked at Lu Li warily. Such a strong young man liked to take things without paying.
They did not lack the money of a sweet potato. They mainly wanted the pleasure of bullying the old and the weak. The ugliness of human nature did not need any reason at all.
"There's some money here. I'll buy your stall. You can come back tomorrow morning and push it back." Lu Li took out all the money in his pocket. There were thousands of dollars in it. He had casually picked them up. These bright red notes were meaningless to him.
"What do you want to do with my stall?" The old man was very nervous.
His shabby stall was indeed not worth thousands of dollars, but it was his livelihood. Without this stall, how could he support his old wife?
"And this watch is for you too. When I was young, I was most envious of the old man who roasted sweet potatoes on the street. I thought he was the richest man in the world, so I planned to disguise myself as a roasted sweet potato tonight. If you don't want to, I won't force you." Lu Li retreated in order to advance.
"Okay, okay, I'll leave this place to you today. Don't break my thing." The old man hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he could not resist the temptation of the bright red old man.
Watching the old man walk further and further away, Lu Li finally let out a sigh of relief.
He skillfully picked up a few pieces of charcoal and threw them into the stove. Then, he slowly added two sweet potatoes to roast. As the fire increased, the sweet potatoes' fragrance became stronger.
"Who are you? Where's the old man who roasted the sweet potatoes just now?" A police officer who had just come out of the residential area saw Lu Li and walked over cautiously. He seriously suspected that Lu Li was an outsider. These outsiders were very dangerous and could kill at any time.
"My dad went back. He's old, and it's not good for him to stay up late," Lu Li replied calmly.
"Your dad?" The police officer looked at Lu Li suspiciously, trying to find some flaws in him. He could not see anything, but he was not willing to give up. He continued to interrogate, "You look like a white-collar worker. How can you make such a small amount of money? There are not many people selling sweet potatoes nowadays."
"My dad is from the countryside, and he's very kind. If we don't sell them today, they won't taste good tomorrow. He doesn't want to throw these roasted sweet potatoes away, so I can only try to sell them."
Lu Li picked up a roasted sweet potato and flipped it over in a familiar manner.
"Give me one." Seeing Lu Li's skillful roasting of sweet potatoes, the police officer's suspicions were mostly dispelled. In the end, he actually wanted to buy one.
"Okay." Lu Li took out a paper bag next to him, put one in, and handed it directly to the police officer. "Brother, take it. You know, I don't need these few dollars. My dad and I think it's a pity to throw them away."
"How can I do that?" The police officer felt even more embarrassed. He had suspected Lu Li before.
"It's so tiring at night. Just take it. The sooner I sell them, the sooner I can go home. I still have to work tomorrow." Lu Li smiled and insisted on handing it over.
"You can't not take the money. It's against the rules." The police officer handed over a 20-dollar bill. "Whether it's enough or not, this is all."
"Okay, I won't stand on ceremony with you. Take it and be careful." Lu Li took the money and put it in his pocket. He did not mention the change. He seemed very generous, and the police officer liked him a lot.
