If it goes well, you will soon become one of them, and I will give you a love. 】
In the early hours of the morning, none of them slept, and they huddled in the kitchen for a meeting.
Gu Congsu was so stunned by Ren Ran and Xie Wenyi's incredible one-day trip yesterday that half an hour later, his mouth was still open.
"So the murderer is Xia Sheng, and those bastard NPCs are used to play hooligans?" Wang Jinglun buckled his head on the table, "I know that one of them must have a problem with the confession, but I didn't expect it to be all of them, my brain! !"
"That's the difficulty of this dungeon. You guys are really amazing. I couldn't even imagine it." Meng Jing said.
"My brain is even worse, thanks to the boss who saved me." Qiu Lu, a frank girl, generously admitted that she was a weakling who won by lying down.
"I have a premonition that we will be in trouble tomorrow collectively, and feel that we will be besieged..." Wang Jinglun showed the accurate premonition that a criminal policeman (traffic policeman) should have all the time.
"Crow's mouth, I beg you to stop talking nonsense. Last time you said that you might kill the players tomorrow. You are really right. Eight people will die at once." Gu Congsu finally closed his mouth and started to normal spoke.
"Eight?" Hao Xue counted the people present in the kitchen one by one, expressing that something was wrong: "One is missing, Qin Shu is gone, he went out during dinner and never came back, it's okay."
"Judging from the stinky and shameless information, he is not cool yet. I don't know if he is cool while we are chatting." Gu Congsu said.
"Smelly shameless?" Meng Jing wondered, thinking why these people are so full of mouths that people can't understand, "Who is she?"
"10101010."
"..." Everyone felt that the name change couldn't be more appropriate, and they all took out their phones to change the notes.
"Seriously, what are we going to do tomorrow?" Ren Ran said, "There is no NPC to help us, how are we going to catch Xia Sheng? The way of arresting this dungeon seems to be different. Since the NPC of the police is set up, there must be His purpose, but we can't find anyone to call us."
"Miss Xu!" Gu Congsu jumped up, "My side mission!"
Indeed, they didn't offend Aunt Xu, she could give it a try.
"I went to help her sort the garbage early in the morning, but as long as she is willing to call us?" Gu Congsu asked.
"More than that, we need evidence that can convince the police. The watercolor painting alone is not enough. He can also say that we are the murderer. Those NPCs can't wait for this. The principle of NPCs can't lie, unless they saw Xia Sheng kill someone with their own eyes." Xie Wenyi said.
"He didn't find the prettiest bright red, and he wasn't going to give up."
"Tomorrow, whether it is a resident of the old city or a player, someone will die." Meng Jing was silent for a while, and said, "Xie Wenyi, some things in this world are just so coincidental. We met twice, and I don't know if it will happen in the future." When we meet again, on the last day, we are all bound together whether we are dead or alive, if you have any ideas, please let us know if there is anything we need to do."
"Tomorrow, Gu Congsu and Wang Jinglun will help Aunt Xu sort out the garbage. As soon as the branch line is completed, let Aunt Xu call. Ren Ran and I will go and watch Xia Sheng. You are patrolling the old city, and you see someone killed or something is wrong. If you want to go to Gu Congsu, you'd better go together, I'm afraid those people will be bad for you." Xie Wenyi said.
"I understand, don't worry." As the oldest of these people, Meng Jing will give people a sense of peace of mind from the last time.
"I'm worried that the branch line is not so simple, why don't I leave it to sort the garbage together. I worked as a volunteer at the garbage station in the community where I live, and I am familiar with this." Hao Xue said.
"Okay, you all remember that tomorrow evening, no matter how far things go, wait at the entrance of the city." Xie Wenyi said.
"Boss, guess what Aunt Xu is doing?" Gu Congsu looked out the window when he walked to the stove to fetch water.
"Clean up the corpse." Xie Wenyi walked to him.
"Khan, it seems that the player's death is not restricted by the old city, and no police will come to take care of it." Gu Congsu poured hot water absently and sprinkled most of it on his wrist, his eyebrows twitched: "Boss, I have A bad feeling."
"Your premonition will come true." Xie Wenyi joked.
"Boss!" Gu Congsu lowered his voice and said, "I said earlier that there seemed to be some problems with this dungeon, the magnetic field fluctuated greatly, and there was no change in the next few days, but when we ran downstairs just now, The data has started to fluctuate greatly again, I have been searching everywhere in the old city for the past few days, but I just can’t find what is wrong, what should I do.”
"I understand." Xie Wenyi just said: "We still have a chance, no, there is another dungeon, pass the one in front of us first."
Everyone sat in the kitchen all night. At five o'clock, a few girls found some quick-frozen steamed buns from the refrigerator, steamed them and shared them with everyone.At six o'clock, the sky was covered with a layer of light, and the weather today was not satisfactory.
At seven o'clock, they went downstairs and saw Aunt Xu, who was angry and tired, at the gate. There were at least 20 huge black garbage bags piled up behind her.
"..."
"Young man, I will hand over the garbage to you to sort. Am I ten years old if I haven't slept all night?" Aunt Xu said, pointing to her wrinkled face.
"Miss Xu, you really know how to joke, you are beautiful." Gu Congsu performed a "duplicity" drama perfectly.
"That's good, hurry up, it will stink after a long time." Aunt Xu raised her legs and went upstairs in satisfaction.
"Smelly? Is it full of domestic waste or food waste?" Gu Congsu felt that his bad premonition was about to come true.
"Yes, your companions are also inside. I believe you. I'm going back to my room to sleep. Come find me when you're done."
Gu Congsu crashed on the spot.
"Do you know what kind of garbage a corpse is?" Ren Ran squinted.
"How could I know..." Gu Congsu almost knelt down and turned to look at Wang Jinglun: "Officer Wang has the most say on this issue."
"I'm just a little traffic policeman." For the first time, Wang Jinglun was so frank about his career plan.
"Is it too late for me to regret it now?" Hao Xue felt a pain in his stomach.
Xia Sheng didn't come out of the room all morning, the curtains of the room were drawn tightly, and he could occasionally be seen walking around. Ren Ran and Xie Wenyi stood at the opposite corner, accepting countless passers-by within an hour supercilious.
There was no movement from Gu Congsu. At twelve o'clock, he simply replied, meaning that he was close to death, and he might not be able to wait with them until the day when the system was killed. I hope that day will come. When they were young, they still remembered him as a comrade-in-arms who lived and died together.
Ren Ran felt that he was driven crazy by garbage sorting.
In the afternoon, Xia Sheng still didn't move in the room. Ren Ran once thought that there was something wrong with his doubts. When he was hesitating, he saw a scream from the bar downstairs.
There were no customers in the afternoon, and when they ran into the bar, He Xiu had no time to look at them coldly, and her white silk blouse was covered with little red stains.
While she was yelling, there were still water drops falling on her body. They looked up, and their expressions changed. The white ceiling above their heads was wet. The decoration here has been going on for many years, and there are cracks in many places. Red drops of water trickled down the crack.
Xie Wenyi touched the water droplets that fell on the table with his hand, and said as soon as he smelled it, "It's blood."
At this time, there was a "gurgling" sound, similar to the sound of the sink being blocked, and He Xiu screamed again, reaching out to point to the sink behind the counter.
The sink she used to wash the cup was bubbling with blood-red bubbles, as if the sewer was blocked by something, and some tiny skin and nerve tissues splashed inside the sink.
He Xiu's face turned pale with fright, and he retched non-stop.
"Xie Wenyi, the drainage pipes in this old city are very old, I'm afraid it's because the things above are clogged and can't get down..." Ren Ran pointed to the top, which is Xia Sheng's room.
"Aunt Xiu, didn't you hear anything all morning?" Ren Ran asked, he had already guessed what happened upstairs.
"Yes.. The sound was quiet but continuous, as if someone was cutting something with a knife..." He Xiu probably also thought of what happened, and felt nauseated.
They ran up to the second floor through the side door. Xia Sheng's door was locked, and Xie Wenyi knocked open the weak door. Although they were mentally prepared, the scene in front of them still made them sweat.
The studio visible from the entrance was dyed red, and there were incomprehensible paintings painted with red paint on the white walls around. Judging from the color, it was extremely likely to be blood.
There is another closed door on the right, and there is a slight grinding sound from inside.
Xie Wenyi took out something from the backpack, and threw the backpack to Ren Ran.Only then did he see clearly that what Xie Wenyi was holding in his hand was the extremely flamboyant pink bow and arrow he got in the previous dungeon.
It seems to be called Cupid's Arrow.
Xie Wenyi pointed at the door with his right hand, kicked the door open with lightning speed, and a stench came straight to his nose. This is a bathroom with a small area, only a water table, toilet and a window. bathtub.
The entire bathroom seemed to be soaked in blood. There were sticky blood stains on the walls and floor, some of which had dried and turned black. Some small pieces of meat could be seen on the black toilet. Something was thrown into the toilet and flushed away. It clogged and caused the sink in the bar downstairs to regurgitate.
There was a torn coat on the ground, although it was full of stains, Ren Ran still recognized that it was the coat that Qin Shu was wearing yesterday.
"No, I don't have the color I want anywhere."
They were shocked by the sight in front of them, and they didn't realize that there was a person sitting on the windowsill.
Xia Sheng sat there, dangling his feet, as if this was some kind of paradise, smiling naturally and strangely.
"You kill people to find the brightest and most vivid color." Xie Wenyi said.
"You guys don't understand what color means to a painter. Even if you have extraordinary painting skills, without color, your painting will be eclipsed. I'm looking for the most vivid red in the world." Xia Sheng's expression was like an idiot Drunk, as if living in your own fantasy.
But Ren Ran understood that he was not normal anymore.
"The first one you killed was a young woman, right downstairs here." Xie Wenyi said.
"I have been paying attention to her for a long time, and I pass by here every night. She is not a resident of this place. I thought that such a young life must have the most beautiful color and smell in the rushing blood, but I was wrong, she didn't! It's the ugliest red I've ever seen!" Xia Sheng's dreamy expression just now shattered like a mirror, he was obviously a little angry, and said in a deep voice: "That woman in her 30s is graceful and charming, maybe such a beautiful woman Women will have brighter colors, but I was wrong again, the dull colors, and the filth, I want to vomit!"
Xia Sheng's expression became more and more terrifying. Everyone he talked about he killed seemed as simple as squeezing paint.
"The last woman I attacked was not young, but she had a kind smile and warmed everyone like the setting sun. I thought she would be the purest, but it turned out!" Xia Sheng's anger had reached its peak, and he He beat the window sill with his hand and said loudly: "No! There is no color I want! I want more people! More blood!"
"So you moved our thoughts. Indeed, there are always some people who can't stand the temptation." Xie Wenyi looked at the clothes left by Qin Shu on the ground, without the slightest pity on his face, "Because he has information, so you Know how many girls players are on each floor."
"Some people are really easy to deceive. I quietly left him a message, telling him that I knew who the murderer was, but he didn't believe it at first. What's the use of it? The more time passed, the more irritable he became , I know I succeeded, but unfortunately, those three people yesterday are not the color I want, is there any color I want in this world!" Xia Sheng has gone crazy, in his world only bright red is his everything.
He looked at them with red eyes, still muttering in his mouth: "Red, where is the red I want, where is it..."
Suddenly, his broken nerves were like a loose string, and he showed a strange smile, "You can't catch me, you can't catch me."
He leaned back and fell straight into the air.
At that moment, Xie Wenyi drew the bow and shot the arrow. The feathered arrow, which looked unreliable, was so fast that it landed with Xia Sheng.
Xie Wenyi sent a message.
【Mr.SH: @阿苏不是Su got it done, ask Aunt Xu to call the police and find a man with an arrow in his body, called Xia Sheng. 】
A few seconds later, Gu Congsu returned almost instantly.
[A Su is not Su: It's done, I'll go find someone else, and the exit will meet! 】
"The encyclopedia says that Cupid's arrow will never return, and will be firmly locked on the opponent's body."
Xie Wenyi held the flamboyant Cupid's arrow in the palm of his hand, and pink bubbles even appeared. Such a girly thing is very out of place in this bloody room.
But Ren Ran still thinks that Xie Wenyi, who just shot the bow and arrow, is so damn handsome that he explodes!
The author has something to say: It is impossible for a stupid author, let alone know what kind of garbage a corpse is. . ORZZZ I was wrong.
