I Kill Gods in Escape Game

Chapter 6: Yanan Apartments (5)

"Before the final conclusion, everything is reasonable speculation." Lin Yuan said slowly, "Why do you assume that I am talking nonsense?"

Sun Jiu thought for a while and responded with difficulty: "That's right, let's find more clues."

After putting away a few traffic responsibility determination letters, Lin Yuan called up the game panel and glanced at the countdown.

[Remaining survival time: 15 hours]

"Isn't that right?" Sun Jiu asked, "Zhao Cheng found a clue and reduced four hours. We found a clue and reduced more than five hours?"

Lin Yuan suddenly had an idea and thought: "Because...we encountered 'danger'?"

Sun Jiu was suddenly startled, remembering the cold presence that had just grabbed his feet.

Could it be that... encountering a being that cannot be looked directly at can also reduce the countdown?
Seeing Sun Jiu frowning and looking like he was lost in thought, Lin Yuan blindly guessed that this person did not notice the hint about the "safe".

"Okay, we've explored 103, now let's go to the remaining two rooms on the first floor." Lin Yuan didn't want to waste time, she just wanted to have fun playing the game.

Somehow, she had a feeling that if she couldn't have fun playing the game, she might do something unimaginable.

"Oh, right." After leaving room 103, Lin Yuan turned around and reminded Sun Jiu, "If you encounter invisible danger again, find the locker."

Pointing to the scattered wood chips on the ground, Lin Yuan was silent for a moment: "Something like this will do."

Sun Jiu nodded to show that he understood.

In fact, she also saw the information about the "safe cabinet", but she was too nervous at the time and did not have time to respond.

Speaking of which...

Sun Jiu thought that Lin Yuan knew the function of the wooden cabinet, and he was so decisive when he rescued her and smashed the cabinet directly.

That was a life-saving item in the copy, and Lin Yuan could destroy it just like that.

It is definitely a lie to say that the girl acted impulsively without thinking. The only possibility is that Lin Yuan knew the function of the safe, but still destroyed it without hesitation.

Sun Jiu felt uneasy.

……

The two of them finished exploring the remaining two rooms on the first floor. Perhaps because Sun Jiu had just encountered the dirty things not long ago, their journey went very smoothly and they did not encounter any unsafe factors.

But no clues were found.

Lin Yuan was very cautious and didn't use any skills. 101 and 102 were both explored by Sun Jiu using his skills.

Now the number of times Sun Jiu's skills can be used is zero.

"Sun Jiu, is the only thing you can do?"

Just as he was about to go to the second floor, Lin Yuan suddenly asked.

Sun Jiu vaguely felt that Lin Yuan wanted to test something, but she chose to pretend that she didn't know and told the truth: "Yes, before you went downstairs, I talked to the two newcomers Li Gang and Qian Tang."

"We all have navigator badges, and we have three opportunities to use them each during the initial job feature exploration."

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.

Until now, she has never tried the effect of another professional badge.

However, there is a limit on the number of times detection can be used, and the same should be true for another profession.

And the innate characteristics...

Lin Yuan checked the panel and found that the description of the talent characteristics had not changed at all. There was no limit on the number of uses and no cooldown time.

If Sun Jiu had not lied to herself, then she could make a bold guess - not every player has the entry level that grants inherent talents.

Glancing at the countdown change, Lin Yuan's eyes froze, and he said slowly: "Those three people are also looking for clues."

[Remaining survival time: 13 hours]

Ever since following Lin Yuan, Sun Jiu has always had a lot of question marks over his head.

Even if she tried her best to think about it, she couldn't understand why Lin Yuan's thoughts jumped so quickly.

How come the other three teammates found the clue? Couldn't it be Zhao Cheng who had been missing since he went upstairs?
Just as she was about to say something, a fierce quarrel broke out on the second floor, and traveled directly into the ears of the two people along the ceiling with poor sound insulation.

Just by listening to the tone of voice, it is not difficult to judge that the people quarreling are Li Gang and Qian Tang, and it is Li Gang who is unilaterally insulting Qian Tang.

Thinking of the scene of a weak girl being bullied by a gangster-like young man, Sun Jiu felt like he was clenching his fists.

Sun Jiu didn't say a word. His stiff face and clenched fists showed his anger at the moment.

Turning around, Lin Yuan still had a blank expression on his face, as if indifferent.

Sun Jiu felt that his anger was extinguished by Lin Yuan's indifference. "Well, Lin Yuan, maybe you could... act less indifferent."

Hearing the complaints, Lin Yuan nodded, as if he had listened to them, but in fact what he said had nothing to do with the other party's suggestions:

"When we went out, the two were arguing. How come they went to the second floor?"

Lin Yuan's eyes inadvertently revealed a look of watching a show.

Sun Jiu's eyes wandered, and he speculated: "I'm guessing, of course it's just my guess."

"Qian Tang and Li Gang seemed to be in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship before. Their relationship was awkward, so it was not surprising that they had a conflict."

Qian Tang quietly told Sun Jiu these words before Lin Yuan came down.

At that time, she was worried about the weak girl.

Sun Jiu wanted to see Lin Yuan's reaction, but was stunned.

Lin Yuan's eyes lit up, he perked up, walked up the stairs to the second-floor corridor, and followed the sound to room 202.

If you didn’t know, you would think she was there to stop the fight rather than to watch the fun.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw an acquaintance.

——Luo Fangrong.

When she bumped into the two, Luo Fangrong's expression was a little unnatural, but she quickly adjusted herself and put on a professional smile: "Xiao Lin, Xiao Jiu, you just came up from the first floor, right?"

"As soon as I heard the quarrel, I rushed over." Luo Fangrong showed a look of regret, "We are all players with the same goal. Why can't we unite and work together to survive? Why do we have to quarrel?"

Lin Yuan didn't want to play tricks on others, so she pushed the door open and the scene inside the house came into view.

Li Gang obviously didn't expect someone to suddenly push the door open, and a stack of notebooks in his hand fell to the ground.

Qian Tang fell to the ground, tears streaming down his face, with two fresh slap marks on his fair face.

Seeing someone coming in, Qian Tang immediately called for help: "Sister Rongrong! Save me!"

She pointed at Li Gang with one hand, her eyes full of resentment, and gnashed her teeth as she accused him, "This beast wanted to hide the clues! I tried to stop him, and he beat me up like this!"

Li Gang blurted out subconsciously: "I didn't!"

Luo Fangrong stepped forward, helped Qian Tang up, and looked at Li Gang in condemnation: "No matter what, everyone's goal now is to stay alive. You shouldn't have hidden the clues, and you shouldn't have hit Qian Tang."

Li Gang looked dissatisfied and ran up to pull Qian Tang, about to argue.

However, his hand just touched Qian Tang's arm.

Sun Jiu rushed forward and slapped Li Gang in the face, quickly, accurately and fiercely!

Snapped--

The crisp sound did not stop.

Li Gang was caught off guard, and then Sun Jiu slapped him twice without mercy.

"You're not allowed to hit a woman!"

"She's just your ex-girlfriend, not your punching bag!"

"No, you idiot." Li Gang steadied his body, a layer of hostility appeared in his eyes, veins on his arms bulged, and he stared at Sun Jiu with resentment, obviously not intending to let him go.

Li Gang is not tall, but he has the temperament of a spirited young man, which makes him look like a bastard and a brutal man.

He is the kind of person who is well-behaved and people will stay away from him when they see him.

Sun Jiu was a little scared and rolled his eyes, trying to seek help from other teammates.

However, Qian Tang, who was protected by her, hid beside Luo Fangrong and had no intention of standing up to speak for Sun Jiu, nor did he even say a word of thanks.

Sun Jiu's brain froze for a moment, and then an image of a person smashing a wooden cabinet with his bare hands emerged in his mind.

"Lin Yuan, she's a good fighter. You dare to hit me..."

Lin Yuan, who had been running straight to where Li Gang dropped the notebook as soon as he entered the room, suddenly looked up and his fingers that were lightly holding the paper pages suddenly clenched.

[Clue prop: Sister’s diary (incomplete)]

Amid the hopeful, hateful, and curious looks from the crowd, Lin Yuan raised the corners of his lips and sneered.

"None of my business."

"You guys continue."
