    Chapter 45

    "..."

    The moment Wen Jianyan's voice fell, the face of the three paper figures across the corridor suddenly turned hideous.

    On the pale face, the dull eyes painted on it stared at the humans not far away, the scarlet blushes on his face were even more dazzling, and the corners of his mouth rose even more, and the smile on his face looked like. Horror.

    The next second, they raised their paper arms and grabbed Wen Jianyan violently!

    Wen Jianyan seemed to be preparing for the sudden attack of the paper people in front of him.

    With one hand, he dragged the fluttering old woman, with long legs and a short body, he drilled out from the encirclement of the three paper figures at a tricky angle, then grabbed the door and ran forward!

    In the long corridor, the three paper figures on his back were chasing after him.

    "Xiuqing, what are you talking about?"

    The paper figurine's cold and stiff voice came from the back, and there was a gentle smile in the sinister voice: "Bring your mom, let's have dinner together as a family."

    "Dad, Daddy, where are you going?"

    The paper boy laughed: "Dinner is done, come and accompany us to eat."

    In the dark corridor with no end in sight, the sound of messy footsteps piled up together, as rapid as a drumbeat.

    [Integrity First] In the live broadcast room:

    "???Family, I can't understand it anymore."

    "Me too... I'm so anxious to see it, the correct solution is right in front of me, what is the anchor running around!"

    "And didn't he just run once? This is a pure ghost wall. It's impossible to get out without completing the hidden route task. I'm "fascinated" and "confused"."

    "Could it be that the anchor doesn't want to kill this NPC? I'm speechless. Anyway, I'll leave it here. Emotional things won't last long in a nightmare. I think he will pay the price for his stupidity this time."

    Wen Jianyan took time to glance at it.

    The three paper figures followed closely, with bright and strange smiles on the three pale faces:

    "Xiuqing, where are you going?"

    "We are a family."

    Who and you are family! Pooh!

    "Sorry, I'm not used to walking too close to my ex-wife!"

    Wen Jianyan's back was cold, and he ran faster: "Looking at our past husband and wife relationship, for the healthy development of our children in the future, it is better for us to take a step back and let each other go!"

    The old woman whose lower body had completely turned into paper reached out to hold Wen Jianyan's arm, opened her eyes and looked at the young man who was holding her, and asked tremblingly:

    "Xiuqing? What happened? Are we skipping dinner?"

    "Don't eat, don't eat, and the marriage has broken down, why do you eat dinner?"

    While running, Wen Jianyan took out her mobile phone from her pocket and quickly purchased props on it, not forgetting to run the train nervously:

    “Order takeaway!”

    [Integrity first] In the live broadcast room;

    "I'm dying of laughter, this dog liar is too involved in the drama, hahahahahahahaha."

    "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Has this anchor's live broadcast style been so free?"

    "God's goddamn marriage is broken, take out takeaway ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

    "Speaking of which, what the hell is the anchor doing? I'm surprised! He's only D-rank, so he can't buy the props to force the power off to hide the circuit!"

    "The anchor spreads his wings on the brink of danger every day. I can't tell whether he has rolled over or not now."

    Suddenly, the movements of the three paper figures stagnated.

    In the dark and deep corridor, the figure of the young man who was holding a piece of paper and running wildly suddenly disappeared, as if it had disappeared out of thin air, and even the breath disappeared completely.

    "..."

    The three paper figures stopped.

    The corners of their lips were still raised, but that smile was so hideous.

    "Xiuqing, where have you been?"

    "Dad, don't play hide and seek."

    Although the human breath disappeared, the paper people seemed to know that if they did not complete the task, the other party would not be able to leave the dark corridor of these two apartments. call.

    Time passed minute by minute.

    [Prop: Concealment Robe has expired]

    After disappearing for a full minute, the human breath reappeared.

    The three paper figurines turned their heads at the same time, and looked sharply in the direction of the aura fluctuations. A cruel and ferocious color suddenly appeared in their eyes. On their pale face, the corners of the scarlet lips slowly rose—

    found it.

    The breath comes from the 1304 room.

    The three paper people smiled and walked step by step in the direction of the human.

    "Daddy, go home."

    "Xiuqing, I knew that I would not abandon us."

    The fiery sunset came in from the window, and the furniture was painted with a layer of bright red, and the life-like scene became strange and distorted.

    Small shrines and fruit bowl offerings were shrouded in a bloody sunset, and electronic candles lit a dim, steady red.

    In the living room, the young man was sitting upright on the sofa, his body was slender and straight, and he looked very out of tune with his surroundings.

    Hearing the call, he turned his head and calmly raised his eyes to the door.

    On the table in the living room, the plate of green vegetables that had been poisoned to a purple-black "color" and four pairs of chopsticks were placed upright.

    "Baby, I figured it out."

    The young man's fair face was plated with evening color, and his clear amber eyes were fixedly staring at the paper figurine not far away, his expression focused, almost showing affection: "We are one family, one family. People have to live."

    He waved to the paper man: "Come on, let's have dinner together."

    "It's too Xiuqing, I know it, I will figure it out."

    The paper man walked over with a smile.

    The two paper children held Wen Jianyan's arms firmly on the left and right, like iron tongs, making him unable to move, while the slender paper figure wife leaned down and held up the plate, she picked up the green vegetables with chopsticks in one hand, pale and pale. The stiff face leaned closer and handed it over with a smile: "Try it, eat it?"

    "Baby, it's too far from me."

    Wen Jianyan's face was a little pale, he restrained his instinctive urge to look up, and his tone was still as gentle as water: "Can you get closer?"

    "Certainly, dear."

    With a smile on his face, the paper man took another step forward, crossed the table, and walked to the sofa.

    Wen Jianyan stared at her movements and estimated the distance in her mind.

    The moment the other party stepped into this area, he raised his voice sharply:

    "Now!!!"

    "Crack."

    Gently, the sound of pressing the shutter sounded from the curtains.

    The old woman whose lower body had turned into a paper figurine was hiding behind the curtains, holding her mobile phone in her hand, her old eyes narrowed, and she looked over.

    She tremblingly said:

    "Xiuqing, I took it, can you take a look?"

    At that moment, time seemed to be frozen, the movements of the three paper figurines were stuck, and the terrifying smiles were frozen on the pale faces.

    The bloody sunset silently poured in from the window, illuminating the group photo of a family of four in Xuan Chu.

    Father, mother, and two children, sitting together on the sofa in the living room, "showed" a smile to the camera.

    In my ears, the familiar mechanical sound of the system sounded again:

    【Ding! The hidden branch is complete! 】

    The next second, the familiar feeling of dizziness came.

    Wen Jianyan opened her eyes again and found that she had returned to the copy.

    The room in 1304 was pitch black. The electronic candles that had just been lit did not know when they were extinguished, and the chanting machine was silent. The three paper figures were sitting in front of the dining table with a smile on their faces. , the plate is full of rotten food.

    A strong rancid odor floats in the air.

    It's like... nothing happened just now.

    Wen Jianyan's fingers were trembling on the corner of the table, and he stood up slowly. He took two steps under his feet, and then suddenly bent down——

    "vomit!"

    He retched violently, almost spitting out his internal organs, his slightly pale fingertips pressed against the table, looking fragile and miserable.

    After a long time, Wen Jianyan raised his head, covering his still twitching stomach, his face turned pale.

    Oh shit……

    It's over.

    He took out his mobile phone from his pocket, the video recording function of the mobile phone was still working, the blood-red rec in the upper right corner was flashing, and the countdown was ending little by little.

    Soon, the familiar mechanical sound sounded again:

    [Main mission: Go to room 1304 to shoot, the shooting time should not be less than ten minutes]

    [Completion: 100% Reward Points: 5000]

    Wen Jianyan closed the video and opened the mobile phone album.

    The latest photo jumped out.

    Although the camera lens is a little skewed and blurred, it can still be seen that a young man with a stiff face is sitting on the sofa, two paper figurines on the left and one on the right hug his arms tightly. Lower body ready to feed into his mouth.

    The young man's eyes looked straight at the camera, his mouth was slightly open, and he seemed to be nervously shouting something.

    This moment was clearly framed in the camera, as if it could bring Wen Jianyan back to the frightening moment a few minutes ago.

    【Ding! Live special mission: Reproduce the events that happened in 1304 room has been completed!

    Unlock special routes, reward points: 5000]

    【Rewards for live broadcast tasks are calculated for you:

    Dungeon Exploration: 15% Reward Points: 5000

    At this stage, the degree of modification of the plot: 37% Reward points: 10000]

    [Remaining points in the account: 25000]

    【Unlock Achievement: Get Out of Poverty and Get Rich!

    Wow, congratulations to the anchor who spent all his points, got rid of poverty in five minutes, and once again has a point balance greater than 0! 】

    Wen Jianyan breathed a sigh of relief, his palms were sweaty, and his heart was still beating violently in his chest, making his legs still a little weak. Although there was dead silence around him, he could still hear the chaotic noises in his ears.

    After all, [Lin Qing's doctor's certificate] was such a life-saving tool that he knew the truth, so he took a bold gamble this time.

    ... it worked.

    Due to professional habits, Wen Jianyan always pays special attention to small details.

    In this special route, the family portrait placed in the mysterious place is not covered with thick dust, so it can be clearly seen that the background of the photo is the living room of 1304.

    You know, the requirement of the special route is to reproduce the events that happened in 1304, but it doesn't say what the events are!

    Of course, the death of a family of four from poisoning satisfies this condition.

    Then, why not a family of four taking family photos in the living room!

    [Integrity First] A piece of "..." floated through the live broadcast room

    "..."

    "……Grass."

    "…………Grass!!!"

    "All! All! All!?!"

    "Why does this liar find the bug of the live broadcast mission so tricky every time?"

    "Hahahahahahahaha shit... If I were the system, I would target it!!!"

    At this moment, a soft sound of "squeak" came from the door, suddenly breaking the dead silence in the house.

    ...what the hell?

    Wen Jianyan was so frightened that her shoulders shivered, and she almost didn't jump up.

    The faint light in the corridor flowed in from the crack of the door that was pushed open, illuminating an old and hunched figure. She held two plates of rich meat dishes in her hands. The strong rancid smell mixed together and became extraordinarily pungent and complex.

    Wen Jianyan had just vomited for a while, but when she smelled the smell, her stomach throbbed again, and her face became even whiter.

    "Da da da."

    There were slow, heavy footsteps.

    The gray-haired old woman leaned on crutches and walked into the dark room step by step. Although her eyes were half blind, she knew the layout of the room very well, and she walked straight to the dining room without the need for light at all.

    She piled the two plates of meat and vegetables in her hand on the rotten dinner plate, turning a blind eye to the strange three paper figures in the restaurant, and muttering frantically:

    "We want to eat, Mom will deliver it tomorrow."

    Wen Jianyan was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately.

    No wonder there are so many rotten dishes on the table.

    After witnessing the death of a family of four, the mad mother-in-law still thought her family was alive, so she still came to deliver dinner every day.

    At this moment, the old woman in front of her made a sudden movement and slowly turned her head. The pair of eyes covered with white shading precisely fell on Wen Jianyan, who was standing aside:

    "Really, Xiuqing?"

    She tremblingly stretched out an old hand shrunken like a tree bark to him, groping in the air: "Have you eaten yet?"

    Against the dark background, the young man stepped forward and gently supported the old woman's arm.

    He lowered his eyelids slightly, and his tone was gentle and intimate:

    "It's me, Mom."

    "I've already eaten, how about you?"
