After the woman answered Gu Xizhou's question, she left them in the living room, looking at each other.
Seeing the woman leave calmly, Brother Lei heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at Gu Xizhou and couldn't help but ask, "How did you come out of the mission world alive?"
Actually, there was something else he didn't say. 'You're so good at courting death.'
Gu Xizhou touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and said very seriously, "I think it's probably because I'm handsome."
Brother Lei, "…" No, I think you're just trying to break the pot!
"Shameless." Dong Chao spat and said.
The atmosphere was very awkward. Fortunately, Brother Lei tried to smooth things over. "Alright, we just went out …"
After Brother Lei told the seven people who didn't leave the room in the morning, he looked at Gu Xizhou and the other two. A trace of sympathy flashed in his eyes, thinking that they didn't have long to live. From what he knew, even if people were to die, the first to die would be the three of them.
And this evil Gu Ran would definitely be the first to die.
After Brother Lei finished speaking, his gaze fell on Gu Xizhou. There was some sympathy in his eyes, and he patted him on the shoulder. Words didn't need to be said.
Gu Xizhou, "…"
At this moment, they were the only people in the living room. There was no movement upstairs for a long time. Gu Xizhou ignored Brother Lei's sympathetic gaze and told Brother Lei and the others their deduction. "When Lin Meng drew for us at the reservoir, we speculated that there must be only three people in the room in order to hear the sounds upstairs at night."
There was no need to hide these things. After all, they still needed to gather information together.
"At the same time, the master prepared four rooms for us. There are three beds in each room, corresponding to twelve people. We suspect that we can only hear the sounds upstairs when there are only three people in the room. One more person or one less person won't do. "
"Ha, who knows if it's true or not. Maybe three people sleeping in a room will trigger the death condition?"
"That's right, who can say for sure? How do we know if what you said is true or not? "
The girl said softly. This girl was Xiao Yu who wanted to cozy up to Fang Zhi yesterday. As soon as she finished speaking, the men and women who couldn't make up their minds suddenly hesitated, and their expressions didn't look good.
Everyone in the room was silent. No one was sure. Brother Lei helplessly looked at the two men and said, "How about this … I stay in your room for a night. What do you think?"
The two men who slept together last night shook their heads and quickly refused, "No, no, no, she's right. This might be one of the conditions of death. You just said that the woman invited the three of them to draw her portrait. I think it's better if the three of us don't sleep in the same room!"
There were two girls in the other room. Naturally, Brother Lei wouldn't ask to stay in the same room as the two girls. He felt helpless, but the relief in his eyes didn't escape the eyes of the two criminal police officers present. Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi looked at each other.
Seeing that these people were afraid of the slightest thing, Si Yu finally said, "It's up to you. Since you don't want to collect information, we'll choose to keep the contents of the conversation we heard last night a secret. I don't care, as long as I survive until the last day to leave this place."
"Oh, by the way, I'll tell you that I've always been lucky. I'll be the one to survive."
The handsome man said softly. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his smile was somewhat evil.
"Who are you trying to scare? We don't want to take the risk! " A man in the room snorted. Gu Xizhou turned around and saw that it was one of the three men who came with Brother Lei. "The difficulty of this world is so low. As long as we don't do anything unnecessary, we'll be able to leave this place alive."
Brother Lei seemed to agree with the man's words. He didn't continue to ask for the three of them to stay in a room.
"Do all of you think so?" Si Yu turned to look at the others. Everyone avoided his gaze, unwilling to share a room with the three of them.
Si Yu seemed to have guessed the outcome. People were selfish and didn't want to risk their lives. He nodded. "Then do as you wish."
"Oh, I forgot to remind you." Si Yu's gaze landed on the other five newbies. "If you don't do anything, even if you leave this world alive, you won't receive any rewards."
"What do you mean?" a girl asked agitatedly.
Si Yu said indifferently, "Literally."
After hearing his words, the few newcomers immediately turned their heads to ask Brother Lei and the others who had experienced mission worlds what was going on. Brother Lei's face was also blank. He wasn't very clear about this. Although there were indeed such negative people in some mission worlds, he didn't know them. He also didn't know if they were dead or alive after leaving the mission world.
Fang Zhi, who didn't understand the situation like the others, looked at Si Yu in confusion.
Si Yu explained indifferently, "Newbies only have one second to live. If they don't do anything here, they won't receive any rewards. They will die when they leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, the newbies who had just calmed down suddenly broke down and cried. "Impossible. How is this possible? Didn't you say that it would be fine as long as we leave alive?"
Gu Xizhou looked at them coldly. On the other hand, Fang Zhi's face was pale, but his condition was still good. Gu Xizhou couldn't help but ask, "Little Fang, do you regret it now? If you didn't investigate, this wouldn't have happened. "
If Fang Zhi hadn't insisted on investigating Yang Zhi and Yan Li's marriage, this wouldn't have happened. This crazy woman wouldn't have run him over with her car.
Fang Zhi was stunned for a moment. He immediately understood what Gu Xizhou meant. The boy smiled brightly and said, "No! Gu Ge, what about you? "
Gu Xizhou looked at him but didn't answer. He didn't know if the original owner regretted it. After all, the original owner was the one who died, but the one who was resurrected was the Demon Cultivator, Gu Xizhou. When he returned, he would find an opportunity to ask.
After some discussion, the room allocation was changed to 4/2/3/3. The five newbies would take turns sleeping in 3 people at night. Fang Zhi would continue to stay with Gu Xizhou and the other two.
Before dinner, Gu Xizhou found an opportunity to stop the gigolo Si Yu. "You said today that if we don't do anything, we'll die. Is that true?"
The man who had just come out of the bathroom slowly wiped the water off his hands. "It must be … fake. I don't know if those people who don't do anything are dead or alive. I'm just lying to them. Otherwise, it would take too much time to gather information by ourselves."
Gu Xizhou: "…"
Seeing Gu Xizhou's speechless expression, Si Yu continued, "However, I've indeed encountered such a low-difficulty world before. Because the others didn't actively search for clues and I was limited by my own abilities, I couldn't find a way to leave by the last day. In the end, the team was wiped out and I was the only one who survived."
Gu Xizhou: "…" Then you're awesome.
After dinner, everyone went to their own rooms to sleep. Gu Xizhou's room upstairs was the master and mistress' room. At first, there were some sounds of footsteps upstairs. Then, the sounds of talking gradually stopped. The people upstairs seemed to have fallen asleep …
At night, Gu Xizhou heard a strange noise while he was in a daze. He got up from his bed and rubbed his eyes. He realized that Fang Zhi was also awake. Only Si Yu was still lying in bed, motionless like a mountain.
Fang Zhi was lying in bed. When he saw Gu Xizhou wake up, he pointed outside.
"Huo huo huo."
"Huo huo huo."
When Fang Zhi heard this noise in the middle of the night, he felt that it was terrifying and strange. Even his breathing stopped.
Gu Xizhou frowned slightly. He got up and opened the door, trying to find out what was going on.
"Gu …" Fang Zhi was interrupted by Gu Xizhou. He only saw Gu Xizhou make a shushing gesture and walk out.
In the dark night, the sounds of "huo huo huo" were continuous.
In the kitchen, Lin Meng's lips were red with blood. She was sharpening a kitchen knife. Other than the knife in her hand, there were two other knives beside her. Her eyes were closed. She was smiling as she sharpened the knives in her hand. She was carefully sharpening the three knives in her hand, as if she was looking at her lover. She was very gentle. This scene was very strange.
"Huo huo huo."
In the middle of the night, this strange noise made the people in the room feel a chill down their backs. However, no one dared to open the door.
Brother Lei clenched his fists. In the end, he decided to go out and take a look. Accompanied by Dong Chao, he walked to the side of the corridor. He carefully stuck his head out and looked around. A man's back blocked his line of sight.
"Are you crazy? Why did you wake up in the middle of the night to sharpen a kitchen knife?"
The owner of the voice was obviously angry. Soon, Brother Lei heard the owner of the voice say, "Can you go to your room to sharpen it? You're disturbing my sleep! "
Brother Lei: "…" I can tell from the voice that it's that guy with the surname Gu!
He wanted to leave first. They might be able to visit Gu Ran's body tomorrow. However, when he turned around, he saw Dong Chao's shocked expression. He was stunned for a moment. A figure floated past him.
When he saw the woman's back clearly, Brother Lei subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
Fang Zhi, who had witnessed the whole process with Gu Xizhou, gulped. He didn't know what to say. He asked dryly, "Gu Ge, are you okay?"
Gu Xizhou: "I'm fine. She's actually quite reasonable."
Brother Lei: "…"
Fang Zhi: "…"
Dong Chao: "…"
The next morning, before everyone was present, Gu Xizhou heard a few newcomers discussing something in low voices.
"Did you hear that strange sound yesterday?"
"Yes … Do you think … someone died?"
When Brother Lei and the others arrived, their faces were all dark. Everyone in the dormitory didn't look good, but they were still in a stable mood. They confirmed the number of people. There were twelve of them.
Brother Lei looked at Gu Xizhou. He wanted to say something but stopped. How should he say it?
Last night … their room heard the sound of a kitchen knife being sharpened the whole night!
He couldn't understand why the woman actually listened to Gu Xizhou and went back to her room to sharpen the knife. Their room was just below Lin Meng's room. They could clearly hear the sound of a knife being sharpened the whole night.
Damn it. If he … No, sob sob sob, he was too scared. He didn't dare to go upstairs and ask the woman to change a place to sharpen the knife. Who knew if the woman would suddenly go crazy and attack him?
Brother Lei and the others knew that the woman was called back by Gu Xizhou. They were a little confused. However, when they looked at Gu Xizhou, they didn't know what to say. They felt that this person … was a little strange.
After the people who had woken up last night briefly recounted what they had seen last night, Gu Xizhou noticed that many people's gazes fell on him.
Gu Xizhou: "Why are you looking at me?"
Everyone: "… You should know!"
"I think you're mistaken. The sound you heard upstairs has nothing to do with the number of people in the room …"
The other newcomers who stayed in the room with the three of them also said that they didn't hear anything last night. They suspected that their judgment was wrong. When they all expressed their doubts …
"Maybe I'm mistaken," Si Yu said faintly. She didn't seem to care.
After breakfast, Lin Meng came downstairs. As usual, she asked, "Will anyone accompany me to sketch today?"
Gu Xizhou, Brother Lei, and another man and woman accompanied the woman to the vicinity of the reservoir. After the woman finished drawing the same draft as yesterday, she made the same request as yesterday. "I want to draw three people in the painting. Are any of you willing to do it?"
Just when the three of Gu Xizhou thought that they would definitely be the three of them, the girl suddenly raised her hand and said, "Draw me!"
"Okay, we still need two more," Lin Meng said happily.
Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi were drawn again. Just like yesterday, they took a long time to draw. The three people in the sketch were different from yesterday. Compared to yesterday's drawing, Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi looked like they had been reprinted on the canvas by a printer. The girl's skin was darker. She didn't look angry. Instead, she looked like she was about to break down. It was as if she had seen something terrifying.
Seeing that they were all looking at the sketch seriously, Lin Meng suddenly asked, "Can you tell the difference between this sketch and yesterday's?"
"No. Can you draw one for me and the two of them?" Si Yu replied.
Gu Xizhou looked at Si Yu, who was glowing. The corner of his mouth twitched. The gigolo was getting fleas again.
Lin Meng was very happy to hear this invitation. She immediately said, "Okay!"
Gu Xizhou lowered his voice and asked him, "What are you doing?"
"I want to confirm something," Si Yu then pulled Brother Lei and the other guy to stand together. He didn't care about their wishes …
Gu Xizhou could tell that Brother Lei was forcing a smile at this moment. He might have already cursed Si Yu's ancestors in his heart.
About an hour later, the painting was done. In the painting, Si Yu and Brother Lei were furious, while in the painting, the man's face was covered in tears and snot, and his skin was dark.
Si Yu looked at the sketch carefully and complimented Lin Meng. She was obviously very happy to hear his compliments. In the end, she allowed him to use his phone to take pictures of the sketch.
On the way back, Si Yu called out to Brother Lei. The four of them slowed down and walked about ten meters behind the other three.
Brother Lei stared at Si Yu with cold eyes. He thought to himself, I didn't look for you. Why did you look for me?
"This time, it's all because of you! You actually made her draw for us? Even if you want to die, don't drag me down with you! F * ck, the two of you are crazy! "
Si Yu glanced at him and said indifferently, "Shut up. If I'm not wrong, Lin Meng's sketch isn't a condition for death. It's a hint."
Gu Xizhou was stunned. "A hint?"
Si Yu nodded. He took out the photo he had taken with his phone and pointed at the girl in the sketch. "It's not that there haven't been any deaths in the past two days. It's just that the dead are still mixed in with the living."
