    Inside the utility room.

    It is cramped and cramped, the air is humid and dull, and there is a musty smell unique to old and unoccupied houses in the humidity, which is integrated into a feeling that normal people would feel uncomfortable.

    Luo asked Xiao Lan's plan:

    【What's your plan next?】

    Xiao Lan sat on the bucket he was looking for, thinking with his feet crossed: "Lin Yan doesn't seem to know as much about this game as I thought, otherwise he wouldn't have to monitor me to get clues about the cigarettes."

    Xiao Lan suddenly understood why the boss of this game looked so unpretentious, because the difficulty of this game is not actually the boss!

    Zhang Dong is just a source of game clues. His behavior is restricted by the rules of the game, and he cannot kill players at will. The same goes for female shopping guides, who are actually just part of the rules of the game.

    All deaths result from the player's own actions and choices.

    The real danger is from - the betrayer among the players.

    They will try their best to test the rules, and then guide their teammates to violate the rules, which will lead to their death.

    However, this game didn't seem to give any special treatment to the betrayers. Lin Yan's move to obtain Xiao Lan had also relied on the advantages of the old players - props. If it were a novice player, the death rate in this game would never be so high. There were only four of the eleven players left, and if the betrayers were excluded, there would be only three left.

    In this case, it means that there must be clues that Lin Yan doesn't know, and if he doesn't know, he can't destroy it in advance.

    "There are still 20 minutes. Let's go back to the places where the clues were found before and check."

    Xiao Lan stood up: "Luo, we still have a chance!"

    Xiao Lan ran towards the warehouse while keeping Luo on a minimum level of vigilance.

    With Luo's current state, he could no longer perform as fast and accurate investigations as before. Although Luo said that he could still persevere, Xiao Lan did not allow him to overdraw his strength like this.

    Originally, it was sealed off for an unknown period of time. After being reborn, he used the ability many times without being cultivated. Xiao Lan felt that he couldn't do anything to squeeze people clean. Moreover, Lin Yan's matter has not yet been resolved, and perhaps he still needs to rely on Luo's power in the final step. It is better to let him cultivate more now.

    "Brother Xiao..." Suddenly a woman's voice came faintly, sobbing and complaining, making one's scalp tingle.

    Xiao Lan turned her head and saw no one at first sight.

    "This way." The voice came from above.

    Xiao Lan looked up and found that Zhao Xiaohe was shrinking at the top of a tall iron shelf, her eyes were red, and the tears on her face were mixed with dust.

    Xiao Lan's intuition is not good: "Zhao Xiaohe? What happened?"

    Zhao Xiaohe blew his nose, and there was no vitality in his tone: "Lin Yan, he...he suddenly ran out and smashed what I found. He said we should all die. Why did he do this?"

    She wiped her tears: "I'm running out of time... I can't find any clues, am I dead, Brother Xiao."

    Having said that, this girl who may still be in high school couldn't help crying.

    Her life has not yet blossomed, but she is forced to get involved in this weird game, and she also witnesses her best friends die in front of her. In all honesty, she has performed very well, searching for clues earnestly, avoiding death conditions, not being deceived by Lin Yan, and even cheering up in the face of the death of her good friend.

    Even if it is an adult, it is difficult to say whether it can perform like this in this situation.

    Unfortunately, there is a traitor in the team, and his goal is to send everyone to hell.

    Xiao Lan didn't choose to offer some useless comfort. He quickly said: "There are still twenty minutes left, and you still have a chance to find clues. If it's almost time, then take a gamble."

    "According to the rules of the supermarket, the easier it is to get the product, the more profitable it is. The product at the line of sight has the highest profit margin, and according to people's habits, the product on the right is more profitable than the product on the left. Think about who Zhang Dong is and what he will buy. ."

    Xiao Lan looked at Zhao Xiaohe calmly, with determination and hope in her clear eyes, and there were some things that Zhao Xiaohe couldn't understand, but there was no fear.

    Looking at his eyes, Zhao Xiaohe suddenly felt a burst of courage in his heart. It is far from the time to give up before the last moment! Even if there is no clue, she can bet luck. She doesn't believe it, she is destined to die in the villain's calculations.

    After Xiao Lan finished speaking, he left.

    Looking at Xiao Lan's firm back, Zhao Xiaohe wiped his face, regained his strength, and secretly cheered on himself.

    After bidding farewell to Zhao Xiaohe, Xiao Lan moved forward quickly.

    Although he pretended to be a very powerful coward in front of the little girl, his own clues have not yet been found...

    【Sir, you have 15 minutes left】

    Boo! Xiao Lan felt bitter in her heart, so she simply ran away.

    Back in the warehouse director's office, nothing.

    【Ten minutes left】

    Finance room, nothing.

    ...

    In the last five minutes, Xiao Lan returned to the manager's room.

    Xiao Lan jumped directly from the window, and with his current physical fitness, he would not be injured at all.

    Back on the lawn, Xiao Lan found the cigarette butts and bricks that had been hidden before. There was no sign of being moved around. It seemed that Lin Yan or the flower-armed gangster didn't find it here, which is good news.

    Xiao Lan returned to the spot where he found the cigarette butt, turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone and studied every detail carefully. Under the light of the light, he finally found the traces that he had neglected before.

    It was a very inconspicuous light gray trace, like some liquid spread on the ground, absorbed dust and then slowly evaporated. After the baptism of time, a layer of ash has accumulated on it, making it look more inconspicuous.

    Xiao Lan was a little weird before. Although Zhang Dong likes to be lazy and complain, he always seems to be talking about it. In fact, he is a coward. Even if he is scolded by the manager, he only dares to complain secretly on the cardboard box. .

    Even the disciplinary notice only stated that he left his post without authorization and abused customers, and it did not show that he was a person with violent tendencies.

    So, why is the warehouse director's office smashed like this?

    There was also a night where he ran under his office and climbed the pipes, and finally slipped his hand and fell to his death. Although Zhang Dong doesn't look very smart, are these stupid behaviors done by a sane person?

    Is it possible to guess that he was not sober at the time?

    The brain is not sober, but the body still maintains the ability to move, the simplest guess is - drunk. After drinking too much, it is not surprising how humiliating things can be done.

    But Xiao Lan had never seen anything related to wine in every place before, so he ignored it. The traces on the ground now gave him hope again. Perhaps Zhang Dong threw the bottle away after drinking, or carried it with him, and was finally taken away with his body.

    Xiao Lan pointed at the trace and said to Luo, "Luo, help me check if there are any traces left by alcohol."

    If Zhang Dong squatted for too long to urinate and was not very particular about people, it would be so embarrassing.

    The shallow shadow stretched out a thin section, slowly covering the gray traces, this time it took longer before Luo's handwriting appeared again:

    【Yes, sir】

    Xiao Lan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

    "Ding-dong-"

    "Lucky people, our game has started, don't keep me waiting."

    Zhang Dong's hoarse and unpleasant voice sounded, no matter whether he passed or not, this would be the last time.
