Strange story player

Shen Kui followed Jiang Du and entered the staff rest room.

After closing the door, Jiang Du kept his back to him and did not move for a long time.

until……

"Mr. Shen Mu," Jiang Du suddenly turned around and looked at him, and said indifferently: "Are you willing...to make a deal with me?"

There was no false smile on his face. Jiang Du was the real him at this moment, but this Jiang Du also made Shen Hu feel a warning sign. He asked warily: "What deal?"

"A deal about the past and the future."

"Don't refuse in a hurry. If I'm not wrong, you will also pay a heavy price for your permanent props. I can help you." Jiang Du said slowly.

Shen Hu looked directly into his eyes and asked: "If you have such means, why don't you just erase the cost of Qin Manjiang's use of permanent props? Don't lie, you can't do it. The past and future I told you are also completely not interested."

Jiang Du shook his head slightly, then slowly leaned towards his ear and whispered: "You will be interested. Don't you want... to let her dead come back to you..."

Chen Hu's pupils tightened, and he suddenly grabbed Jiang Du's collar, his eyes instantly turned red: "Do you know Ling? Who are you? Have you passed [Yin and Yang Alleys]?"

Jiang Du took his hand away calmly, his eyes as silent as a pool of stagnant water, and said to Shen Hu, "Me?"

"I'm just an undead soul that should have fallen asleep long ago."

"Please listen to me," Jiang Du looked into Shen Kui's eyes, "The power Mr. Chen Zhiyuan has is the future, and the power you have is the past. Countless rounds of selection have finally given birth to you. I don't want you to die. So, I have a great proposal..."

"It can get you what you want, but sir, you also need to listen to me when necessary..."

"Would you like to hear it?"

he laughed.

The next day, Shen Kui and Jiang Du entered the staff room alone yesterday and left without saying a word.

Qin Manjiang also lost consciousness again and did not wake up until the next day.

When he woke up, only he and Yu Ruoli were still there at Qingtong Bar.

"Where are they?"

Qin Manjiang asked doubtfully.

"Go back." Yu Ruoli saw that he was awake and began to pack his things. "Yan Xiao said that you need to rest and not have big mood swings."

Qin Manjiang glanced at the time and realized that he had been lying down all day.

Yesterday's rain had stopped long ago, and it was sunny in Fucheng today.

"Thank you." Qin Manjiang said suddenly.

"They are all busy, I just happen to have some free time." Yu Ruoli explained simply.

It seemed that she didn't want Qin Manjiang to think that she stayed to take care of him for other reasons.

"I know," Qin Manjiang looked at her, "I'm so hungry, go get something to eat?"

Yu Ruoli frowned, looked at Qin Manjiang, and said nothing for a while.

"Um."

She agreed.

…

In the next few days, Qin Manjiang kept trying to use [Pupillary Realm] again, but found that he could no longer use it. This thing had really become a brick now and had no effect other than hitting people with it.

The remaining forty-five players are paying close attention to the five people who are about to enter the "scheduled death" strange story, but in the past few days, they have not encountered anything strange in their daily lives, and everything has been business as usual.

Until... November 21st.

midnight.

Tonight is the day when the strange story of [death on schedule] begins.

Liu Jingqing, Xia Nan, Su Yu, Yue Qiuchi, and Cao Xiangrong were not together because the strange story this time was extremely special. After discussion, everyone came to the same conclusion. Staying in a group will not increase safety, but may Cursed to catch them all.

Even if they want to meet up, it will be after each has received its fate.

Before knowing the specific circumstances of this strange conversation, they were actually potential competitors, not partners who could immediately cooperate.

Xia Nan stayed in her apartment and looked at the time on her watch. It was midnight, only three minutes left.

The moonlight is beautiful tonight, but no one is in the mood to see the moon now.

In the silent night, all sounds are amplified, and Xia Nan can even faintly hear her own heartbeat.

Waiting for terror to come is a terrifying thing in itself. Even if he turned on all the lights and was mentally prepared for it, his fear was still rising as time approached.

"Ta...ta...ta..."

The subtle sound of the second hand beating is like a drum beating on the heart, just when there are only ten seconds left before midnight! With a "swish" sound, all the lights went out!

Xia Nan immediately clicked on the phone screen, only to find that there was no light even from the phone!

come yet?

There were four other players who had the same experience as him. The difference was that Liu Jingqing, like Xia Nan, was at home.

But the other three players are not.

This is the plan they discussed. The curse is likely to appear when the zero point reaches zero.

Therefore, the place where Cao Xiangrong was at the moment was a nightclub. The crazy music and dancing crowds largely dispelled his fear. The only places he could think of where there were many people in the middle of the night were these night entertainment venues.

Even if the [scheduled death] ghost story comes on time at midnight, he is still crowded with people and can avoid a considerable degree of horror.

As for Yue Qiuchi, who was gathering with a group of real friends at the moment, she had similar thoughts. She must not be left alone, especially when the strange story of "scheduled death" was about to happen.

So, tonight she made an appointment with three friends to play mahjong all night long.

As for... Jie, that is, Su Yu, this young man who looks to be only seventeen or eighteen years old is actually on the rooftop of a tall building.

The night wind blew his slightly curly gray hair, and he still had a band-aid on his dark face. He was wearing casual clothes and headphones, quietly waiting for the arrival of midnight.

However, just like what happened to Xia Nan, when it was about to reach zero o'clock in ten seconds, every player's light was deprived!

In the nightclub where Cao Xiangrong was, the bright lights suddenly went out, and the incandescent light on the ceiling above Yue Qiuchi also flickered and went out.

The weirdest thing was where Su Yu was. There were no lights around him at all, but at this moment... the moon went out.

The five people were instantly shrouded in darkness and could not see anything. Xia Nan shivered. Maybe the window was not closed properly and the night wind came in, as if a pair of cold hands had passed over his body.

There were strange noises coming from everywhere in the room.

"Crunch——"

"Crunch——"

Is it the bedroom door? And the wardrobe... it's all moving.

There was also a "tick" sound from the bathroom, like water droplets from the faucet suddenly falling to the ground.

The ring hanging the curtain also made a "rustling" sound at this moment...

Something is coming...

Even though Xia Nan was subjectively not afraid of ghosts at all and had actively entered the world of ghost stories, the objectively terrifying environment still caused a fearful reaction in his body.

He is trembling...

At the moment when time jumped to zero, Xia Nan clearly felt that something had entered her house!

Coming!
