What to do if you're forced to marry a demon king's daughter in a horror game?

"Hey? Boss! Don't..."

Xia Mai, inside the door, tensed up.

She hesitated for a long time before finally opening the door.

"Boss, is that really you?"

"What else did you think it was?" Su Yu found it a little funny: "When did you become so timid?"

It would have been better if she hadn't said those words; as soon as she did, Xia Mai suddenly burst into tears.

Su Yu: "???"

Xia Mai choked up and said, "Boss, I'm sorry, I'm really scared... This is the place I'm most afraid of in my life..."

Hearing her emotional breakdown and sobbing, Su Yu didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.

"But I have to come back and face it."

Xia Mai wiped away her tears and clenched her fists.

His eyes held a burning determination.

Even if the ultimate price is to remain asleep here forever, I must try to save myself!

293. It's despicable to do this, but...

Xia Mai wiped away her tears, forcibly suppressing her sadness and fear.

She was always like this in front of Su Yu, afraid of causing Su Yu trouble or being disliked by Su Yu.

She may not be a useful person, but she is definitely not a troublesome one.

After spending more time together, Su Yu actually felt a little sorry for her.

However, this kind of heartache is different from liking.

Knowing this difference, Su Yu would not give her any incorrect feedback.

Not giving others unwarranted hope is Su Yu's consistent principle in life.

"Boss, these are the things I found in the house. See if there's anything you can use."

After calming down a bit, she quickly presented what she had found.

Su Yu took the plastic bag from her and emptied its contents.

"Isn't this notebook yours?"

"No."

Xia Mai quickly explained, "I don't have the habit of writing a diary, and the handwriting on this isn't mine."

Su Yu nodded.

Opening this small notebook, no bigger than the palm of my hand, I found it still in diary form, with some entries written inside.

"Monday, sunny. I hate my math teacher. I hate that damn, arrogant four-eyed guy. I want to cover his chair with glue and put insecticide in his tea! That bastard deserves to die!"

"Tuesday, sunny. That damn four-eyed guy didn't come to class today?"

……

"Friday, sunny. The four-eyed boy still didn't come to class, which is really a pleasant thing!"

"Saturday, sunny. It's such a pity about that girl in the next class. Such a pretty face now has a scar, but it looks like a cat scratch? Speaking of which, I think Four-Eyes used to have a black and white cat at school. Recently, even that fierce and silly cat has disappeared. How strange."

……

"Monday, rain. The math teacher has gone missing, and the police have been visiting the school frequently lately."

"Tuesday, rain. The math teacher's body was found on the hill behind the school. He was murdered. Who did it?"

The diary ends here.

Looking at the contents of this diary, Su Yu couldn't help but think of the diary in her pocket.

Looking at the dates, it seems that a significant portion of the dates they recorded correspond to each other?

Who exactly is this girl from the next class?

Su Yu felt that this person would be the key to the mystery.

"This math teacher might also be a key figure."

It would be even better if we could find students from this high school to share their experiences.

Besides the diary, Xia Mai also found a jigsaw puzzle piece in the room.

That's right, it's just one piece.

"The things on this puzzle look like human organs...?"

Su Yu examined it carefully.

"Yes, the stomach?"

Xia Mai was also puzzled and just looked at it with a confused expression.

"By the way, Miss Xia, did you see any notes in the room that contained orders or threats?" Su Yu asked casually.

"No, not at all," Xia Mai quickly replied. "I won't hide any clues, so don't worry!"

Her eyes don't lie.

Su Yu nodded.

After a moment's thought, she decided to take Xia Mai back to her room.

The precautions in the task description did not mention that visiting other people's rooms was prohibited.

Since it didn't say it's not allowed, then it is allowed!

Xia Mai nodded repeatedly, deeply grateful, and followed her.

"Thank you so much for taking me in, sir!"

"Don't be so polite, it's all just to complete the mission."

Su Yu smiled and looked at her.

Just then, Su Yu suddenly noticed that Xia Mai's shadow looked a little strange.

They were walking side by side, and the light source was coming from the same direction, so theoretically, their shadows should be equally dark, right?

However, Xia Mai's shadow seemed a little lighter than hers.

This anomaly immediately reminded Su Yu of the content of Note 3.

(Note 3: There can only be ten players participating in this instance. Who are the extra players?)

There are only ten players.

There will be an extra "person".

So, who could this person be?

……

……

After returning to the room.

Xia Mai looked at the small single bed in the room, then at Su Yu beside her, and her face flushed again.

In my mind, I damn well filled in some images that I shouldn't have.

Fortunately, the big boss can't read minds, otherwise he would have kicked her out in a heartbeat.

"Um, boss..."

"Ok?"

"Me... should I sleep on the floor?" Xia Mai nervously rubbed her hands together. "Or, I shouldn't sleep at all; I can stand guard!"

Su Yu was both amused and exasperated: "You sleep on the bed, I'll sleep on the floor."

After all, Su Yu believed that he still retained some masculinity.

She couldn't quite bring herself to make a real girl sleep on the floor.

However, Xia Mai became even more nervous when she heard that the big boss was going to sleep on the floor.

She stammered, "No, no, no... This can't be! Boss, the boss should sleep in the bed, I only deserve to sleep on the wall... I mean, on the floor, on the floor!"

Su Yu: "Stop talking nonsense, just sleep in the bed when I tell you to."

The somewhat commanding tone made Xia Mai obey in an instant.

She lowered her head, gave a weak "oh," and obediently lay down on the bed.

In the darkness, one could almost hear footsteps in the corridor.

Xia Mai hugged the quilt tightly, barely daring to breathe.

This is where she used to live, yet it is completely different from the No. 180 she remembers.

The footsteps outside made her imagine many terrifying scenes.

Those horrific images eventually intertwined with the despair and pain of the fire, turning into nightmares that could cause her emotional breakdown.

She was trembling.

The shaking was so intense that even the bed frame made a slight creaking sound.

Su Yu couldn't sleep to begin with, and now she couldn't sleep at all.

She sat up and looked at Miss Xia, who was trembling violently on the bed.

"Can't sleep?"

"Um……"

Xia Mai bit her finger.
