Chapter 31

After leaving the studio, Yang Erci, Josh and Wu You searched all the way, looking for clues in every open room.

Probably because of digital management, there are not many clues and information that can be found.

They only found hard drives in a few rooms, and inserted them into the mainframes of those rooms. Most of the contents were about the children in the shelter, about height, weight, blood type, and whether they had genetic diseases. Information.

To Yang Erci's surprise, there were far more of these children than they had imagined.

"This hard drive is different from the previous one." Josh said, pointing to the floating screen connected to the host, which was a pop-up window, "This is encrypted, requires a password, and requires administrator permissions, and the host model is not correct. , we shouldn't be able to open it in this room."

Yang Erci nodded, "The administrator may be Zhong Yirou. Let's go to the room that was initialized before and see if we can insert it."

She always felt a little strange that Wu You never came back after he left.

This sense of unease continued as she and Josh returned to the first-floor control room. , because Josh was afraid of dark rooms, she opened the door directly.

Without saying much, Yang Erci directly put the encrypted hard disk into the card slot of the host computer, but Josh patted her on the shoulder.

"Look at the monitoring on the screen..." Josh's voice trembled.

Yang Erci glanced over.

At first she didn't notice anything wrong, but after a closer look, she felt weird.

There are clearly countless surveillance images on the screen, from the room to the corridor, not a single one is left.

But in these images, there is not a single person.

"Where did they all go?"

The lights in the corridor, the snow-white walls, and the reflective floor make the whole space extremely bright.

But Zhong Yirou was standing here, but she felt shivering, and even the air was flowing gloomily, passing by her side.

There was An Wu Jiao in front of her eyes, but another An Wu Jiao voice came from her earphones.

[Hey? I can still hear your voice just now, is there no signal now? ]

He is still talking.

So far, one of these two must be true and the other is false.

So far, she has not found any bad signals from these two people, indicating that disguising as another person needs to gain trust, and before that, there should be no danger to her life.

It would be fine if the one in front of him was real. The one in the earphone was probably trying to lead her over. After all, the person in front of him appeared completely in front of him, while the one on the opposite side had only voice.

But what if it was the other way around?

Zhong Yirou followed behind An Wujiu, touched her ear, and finally touched a slightly raised dot, she tentatively tapped a few times with her fingers, and with a beep, the sound on the other end was cut off. .

Oops.

How come there is no instruction manual for this thing?

She took a deep breath and walked to the point where she was shoulder to shoulder with the An Wu Jiao in front of her, and then showed her usual smile.

There will be flaws in the fake ones, so let's start with this.

Always get something out of it.

"By the way, you just said there is a work log, in which room did you see it?"

An Wu Jiu turned his face and said calmly, "The data room."

"Oh, that's it." Zhong Yirou nodded, "Is there nothing scary in the data room? This copy is really scary, there is a weird feeling everywhere, and it scared me to death just now."

An Wu Jiu listened, paused, and said, "This place is very strange. I was just thinking, did you encounter an illusion just now?"

He added: "I also had hallucinations when I was separated from other people."

"What hallucination?" Zhong Yirou stared into his eyes.

It's exactly the same, there's no difference at all from the outside.

An Wu Jiu glanced at her and smiled again, "I saw that you all turned into monsters and wanted to kill me."

Just one sentence seems to be able to make people see the picture and be horrified.

Zhong Yirou frowned, but soon let go.

She didn't want to show flaws.

"Really? That's more terrifying than me. At least the hallucinations I see are people I don't know. Those children are alive at one time, and then turned into corpses of cheating corpses, and only I can see them."

"This is the morgue you mentioned." An Wujiu lowered his eyes, "After I get the work log, I will know what your work is. Combined with what just happened, there should be new clues."

Continuing to walk forward, Zhong Yirou felt that the temperature suddenly warmed up, but there was still this empty corridor in front of her. Originally, she thought that she would encounter a player, but there is no one else until now.

So weird.

She thought of something, so she turned to An Wu Jiu and asked in a very casual tone, "By the way, what about the guy with green eyes? He didn't follow you."

An Wu Jiu was silent for a while.

Perhaps the silence was not very long, but in Zhong Yirou's eyes, every detail on his face seemed to be infinitely magnified.

The face is right in front of her, but at this moment, the voice in the earphone just now echoed repeatedly in her mind, which was no different from the current one.

[Yirou…]

[I am innocent. ]

Yi Soft.

Zhong Yirou suddenly stopped.

An Wujiu in front of him also sensed her stop, so he turned his head.

Zhong Yirou's double eyelashes touched up and down lightly, an adventurous idea popped up in her mind, and she implemented it.

"Wu You, you won't get rid of him, will you?"

Her heart almost jumped out.

An Wu Jiu's face in front of him didn't change at all, it was terribly calm.

"No, he himself went to other rooms to collect clues, saying that separation is more efficient."

After he finished speaking, he stared at Zhong Yirou's face, and even showed a friendly smile.

Zhong Yirou's expression didn't change much, she looked very relaxed, she also smiled, and then put an innocent shoulder, "That guy still has such an independent time."

It seems that this guy in disguise doesn't even know the player's personal information.

I thought it was an NPC, but would the altar really let him fight the player without even telling the player's information?

This doesn't seem reasonable.

The moment An Wujiu turned his face forward, the corner of Zhong Yirou's raised mouth came down.

Her other hand touched her ear calmly, and her fingertips kept tapping.

Just when the fake An Wujiu said to her, "You know where the others are", Zhong Yirou's microphone made a harsh noise and then beeped.

"Did you meet anyone else along the way?" An Wu Jiu asked again.

At this time, a woman's voice appeared in the headphones, and the tone was very cold.

[Who are you? An Wujiu is next to you? ]

Zhong Yirou's heart beat faster and faster, and the cold white corridor in front of her seemed to have no end, and was even gradually melting.

Is this a hallucination?

She even smelled that weird and disgusting smell again, like countless squirming worms wrapped around herself, and then rotted a little bit.

Zhong Yirou struggled to hold back the hallucination that almost made her vomit, trying to calm herself down.

She pretended not to hear the voice in the microphone, and continued to talk to the fake in front of her.

"Oh, by the way, where is the room where you said you found my work log?"

[An Wu Jiu] pointed along the road ahead.

"The second room just around the corner."

As he spoke, a cold voice came from the microphone.

[Zhong Yirou, where are you? Why don't you answer? Can't hear me? ]

Zhong Yirou quickly said, "Ah, I see."

"Is the front one in the northwest corner? Let's be in the northwest corner now." Zhong Yirou took a few steps forward, pointed to the corner and turned back to look at the person who pretended to be out.

[An Wu Jiu] hummed, nodded slightly.

Yang Erci on the other end of the microphone found the clue.

[You are in the northwest corner now? An Wu Jiu is watching you, so you can't answer my question, right? ]

[You don't need to answer, make a mark, or give a cipher. ]

Zhong Yirou faced the wall and turned her back to [An Wu Jiu]. After a second, she turned to look at him, her face full of pride that she had thought of a good solution.

"Let's do this. Let's mark it. It's too easy to get lost here. It's too easy to get lost, and maybe you will fall into the hallucination again. If you encounter such a dangerous thing, it will be troublesome."

She deliberately repeated what [An Wujiu] said.

"And you didn't say that you saw the illusion of other players turning into monsters and killing you. Maybe, this kind of thing will happen in the future, and it will be clearer when you make a mark to escape."

She said it well, [An Wu Jiu] also nodded, "What to do?"

Zhong Yirou originally planned to make a mark with her fingernails, but after thinking for a while, she finally stretched out her index and middle fingers, brought them together, put them on the lips and kissed them, and then stamped the lipstick on the fingers on the wall.

There was an extra hickey on the snow-white corner wall.

"It's marked. It's hard to see what the nails have drawn, and the lip print is red and eye-catching. This way we can remember it when we go around."

"Yeah." [An Wujiu] nodded, "Let's go in."

Yang Erci heard the conversation between the two on the opposite side, and she felt that there must be something wrong.

"I'm going out."

"Where to?" Josh asked, but Yang Erci had already run out of the room. He thought he was left alone, but soon, footsteps appeared again.

Yang Erci returned to the door and made a gesture to Josh.

"You come with me."

The two took a look at the evacuation map, determined their current position, and then went directly to the northwest corner of the first floor, but they went around several times, but they couldn't find the so-called lip print.

"Could we be in some vicious circle?" Josh looked at this corridor with no one in it, and felt a chill in his heart.

Yang Erci frowned.

Must save her.

Just as they were walking in circles in the corridor, they suddenly saw a weird nine-square grid on the ground with a route track on it.

Yang Erci stepped forward.

what is this.

Soon, a golden light flashed, and the nine palaces on the ground suddenly disappeared, leaving nothing behind. Before long, a strange heat flow came from nowhere.

Following this heat flow, Yang Erci and Josh once again followed the temperature.

This time, as if something had been cracked, although they could not find the source of the heat flow, they saw a mottled red lip print in the corner ahead.

The next second, Yang Erci heard the voice——

There is no work log in this so-called data room!

Zhong Yirou followed [An Wujiu] nervously into it, and found that there was actually a small suite, like an office room, she felt something was wrong, so she kept asking, "Where is the log?"

But [An Wu Jiu] never answered.

He let Zhong Yirou walk in the front and he was behind, forcing her to go to the apartment inside, and then approach a wall.

Just when Zhong Yirou's inner panic reached its peak, [An Wu Jiu], who was beside him, pulled out a soft leather pointer out of nowhere. on the ground.

The desire to survive made Zhong Yirou try to go up, grabbing the wall with one hand and the leather whip with the other, desperately shouting "help".

"Help! An Wujiu! Yes, someone pretends to be you! I'm going to die! Help..."

Under the severe pain, the air was squeezed out of this body, and when Zhong Yirou almost lost the strength to call for help, there was a loud "bang" behind her.

Then there was another muffled, violent crash.

The perpetrator behind him fell down beside Zhong Yirou like a broken wall with a crumbling foundation.

The tight leather whip was released, and Zhong Yirou was released back into the water like a dying fish at the last moment. She panted weakly and looked behind her.

It was Yang Erci who came to save her. There was a hint of faint emotion on that face that was always indifferent.

Like lingering fears.

"Help..." Zhong Yirou, who was lying on the ground recovering her clarity, actually grabbed her trouser legs on the spot, with a happy smile on her face.

"Beauty saves beauty, it's so timely, I love you so much, you are such a good person..."

The voices are all empty, and they are still joking here.

Yang Erci let out a long sigh of relief, put down the chair that he had grabbed in his hand, and smashed him hard twice, all hitting the back of his head.

Best not to be really innocent.

An Wu Jiu who had been walking around with Shen Ti suddenly sneezed.

The way he sneezed was funny, Shen Ti tilted his head to look.

As a result, An Wu Jiu sneezed twice in a row, lowered his head and rubbed his nose a few times.

"What's wrong with you?" Shen Ti asked.

An Wu Jiu was confused, he touched his head, "I don't know either."

"I always feel... the back of my head is cold."
