Day of Imprisonment

Seeing Dou Dou smilingly offer to accompany them for free, Mao Ge, Ke Lan, and even Wu Rui felt a jolt of alarm.

They thought, 'We can't agree to that!'

If this woman comes along, she'll definitely turn us into bean paste!

Her fists are like speeding cars on the highway; how can we possibly provoke her?

Unexpectedly, Luo Xi nodded in agreement: "A beautiful woman as company, free service, why not take it?"

"Ha," Dou Dou smiled, picking up the game room's list of attractions: "You just said there were games not listed; what did you mean?"

"I mean games that you used to have here but later canceled, or rather, abandoned or never launched," Luo Xi patiently explained, while observing Dou Dou's expression and reaction.

"We don't have anything like that here..." Dou Dou said subconsciously, but halfway through, she suddenly realized something, her expression froze, and she looked up at Luo Xi.

"Looks like there is, right?" Luo Xi smiled.

Dou Dou thought for a moment, then turned her head to look at Ke Lan behind her.

The latter gave a dry laugh.

"I remember now; so, you're here for that," Dou Dou's expression changed, her expression was strange, it was difficult to guess what she was thinking at the moment, and her reaction was very strange, both excited and hesitant, resulting in her pacing back and forth, circling in place.

Even Mao Ge knew that if Dou Dou was circling in place, it was definitely because she was caught in a tangle of indecision.

She lowered her head, walking while biting her finger, sometimes suddenly stopping, looking up at Luo Xi and the others, then continuing to walk with her head down.

"If Fatty Qian were here, he could definitely say a lot of sarcastic things," Ke Lan immediately felt that not bringing Fatty Qian was a major miscalculation; in this situation, Fatty Qian would definitely create many golden sentences.

Ke Lan and the others were anxious, but Luo Xi was very patient; he didn't ask or interrupt, just waiting quietly.

Finally, after a few minutes, Dou Dou walked over, looked up, and stared at Luo Xi with bright eyes.

"First, tell me, why are you looking for that place?" Clearly, everyone knew which 'that place' she was talking about.

"Someone accidentally summoned the town chief using an unknown creature card, and then..."

"Stop, I understand," Dou Dou held out her small hand to stop Luo Xi, then continued to bite her finger: "Forget about this; go back, I can't help you."

"Actually, your lie isn't very clever at all," Luo Xi had no choice but to expose the clumsy lie on the spot in order to change her mind.

"Ha, so what? Even if you see through it, I just won't admit it; besides, before this, I even wanted to punch you to death, now I'm letting you go back for your own good, you've got ancestral graves smoking with good fortune, hey wait, what did you say before?" Dou Dou looked at Luo Xi again, with a hint of suspicion in her eyes.

"I said your lie was..."

"Not that sentence, the one before that."

"Someone accidentally summoned the town chief using an unknown creature card, and then the town chief gave everyone present a red admission ticket!" Luo Xi said it completely this time.

"Who did you hear that from?"

"I was there at the time."

"Nonsense," Dou Dou immediately frowned: "Then you wouldn't still be here; you said, the town chief gave everyone..."

Before she could finish, Luo Xi had already taken out his invalid admission ticket.

Dou Dou's tightly knitted eyebrows shot up, her already large eyes widened even more, and her whole person froze.

The scene suddenly became very quiet.

"Can I see it?" she said immediately after she came back to her senses.

Luo Xi handed it over directly.

Dou Dou took the red admission ticket and looked at it carefully with her head down.

"Good heavens, this thing can be invalidated? No, that's not right, that's very wrong..." Dou Dou suddenly reacted, and she looked up at Luo Xi again: "Why did 'it' give you an invalid admission ticket?"

"At first, there was no 'invalid' stamp; actually, I was cheated; originally, it didn't want to give it to me, but I insisted on having one, so it gave me one, as a result, everyone else left, excluding me alone, obviously tampering with it, not letting me go."

"That's a good thing for you! No, wait, why would it do that?" At this moment, the incomprehension and suspicion on Dou Dou's face reached their peak.

"I don't know, but I really want to know the reason, and I must bring my friends back!" Luo Xi said truthfully.

As for his guesses about this question, he didn't say.

"Right, if you knew, you wouldn't have come here; you want to explore the answer, but I'm also very curious about this, hey, what to do, what should I do..." Dou Dou muttered to herself, she thought for a moment, and circled in place again, walking back and forth with her head down.

But this time she only circled twice before walking over and grabbing Luo Xi, not saying a word, silently walking ahead, Luo Xi was pulled along behind, and Ke Lan and the other three hurriedly followed closely, with the guard dog following at the end.

Ahead was the deepest part of Dou Dou's game room, with a passage, but blocked by a fence rope, with a sign hanging next to it that read 'No Entry for Non-Game Room Employees'.

But Dou Dou directly opened the rope and led the way inside.

Ke Lan looked around here, suddenly remembering something, and whispered to Wu Rui and Mao Ge next to him: "It's here; I remember the entrance to that game is ahead."

The two nodded, both a little nervous at this moment.

Dou Dou walked over, reached out and tore off a piece of hoarding, revealing the entrance to a game scene.

Written on it was 'Traveling Through Fairytale Town'.

Sure enough, as Ke Lan had said before, Dou Dou's game room once planned to open such a game project, but later, for some reason, the plan was stopped.

Dou Dou blew the dust off the sign, then walked behind the small platform next to it, looking at Luo Xi and the others outside.

"Dear customers, I solemnly introduce to you, Dou Dou Game Room's newly developed game, 'Traveling Through Fairytale Town'; because this project is open for the first time, the ticket price is half price; if you want to experience this game, a single person needs to pay 2 [Memories]. However, have you really thought it through?"

Dou Dou said in a serious manner.

"So, what are the specific rules and gameplay?" Luo Xi walked over.

"Enter from the entrance, exit from the exit."

"That's it?"

"Yes."

Obviously, the simpler the gameplay and rules, the more dangerous it is.

Moreover, Dou Dou's game room had clearly created this game project before, but why did it suddenly abandon it and leave it idle until now?

There was clearly an inside story here.

Luo Xi didn't ask any more questions, but gave Dou Dou two [Memories].

Mao Ge and the others also walked over, wanting to hand over their cards.

"Sorry, because this game project is open for the first time, there is a limited number of players, only the first customer to sign up will be allowed to participate, as for the others, better luck next time," Dou Dou suddenly stopped the others at this time.

Ke Lan and the other three exploded upon hearing this.

"Why, that's not okay, we're together, of course we have to go in together, how can you limit the number of people?" Ke Lan shouted directly.

"Yes, I don't care about others, anyway, I definitely want to go," Wu Rui said with a firm expression.

Mao Ge hesitated to speak.

"I said, the game room is my territory, I make the rules here, if you don't agree, you can get out now," Dou Dou said with a sneer: "Or, you can choose to attack me, I'll immediately send you to the next cycle day, of course, if you're strong enough and lucky enough, maybe you can kill me."

No one would really think that good luck could kill a manager of a medium to large-scale instance.

If she really wanted to kill someone, it was estimated that only Mao Ge could resist for a moment after activating [Skyrocketing Grievance], the others couldn't withstand even one punch.

Luo Xi looked at the three at this time: "Do you have any news from Fatty and the others?"

It was considered a change of topic.

Ke Lan reacted and immediately checked his phone.

"There's some; Fatty Qian said that someone has carefully studied the various intelligence of 'Fairytale Town' and believes that it is an instance that simultaneously possesses 'Chaos', 'Yin Yang', and 'Geo' attributes, and each attribute has reached level four.

"In addition, someone once received a call from a Memory Weaver who had opened the entrance to Fairytale Town but had not yet entered it, saying that he looked inside from the door and saw a scarecrow..."

"That's it?" Luo Xi didn't expect that Fatty Qian and Guo Zening had really found out some intelligence.

"That's all for now; Fatty Qian said that very few people know this information, and the other party is charging a high price; he spent 5 [Memories] on the information about the scarecrow."

"Scarecrow?" Luo Xi was thoughtful.

"Otherwise, let's wait a little longer and see if there are any more intelligence discoveries over there; maybe there's important information," Wu Rui couldn't help but say at this time.

Luo Xi shook his head.

"There's not enough time, I won't wait; you don't have to wait here; you can go find Fatty Qian and the others to inquire about information together."

"Wait, Luo Xi, are you really going alone?" Mao Ge was also a little anxious.

Luo Xi nodded, and then said: "Lin Qiqi said that I might have been there before and successfully escaped, so don't worry; moreover, this game project may not necessarily enter Fairytale Town; maybe it only contains some information about that place; maybe I'll be out in a while."

After speaking, he turned to look at Dou Dou.

"Um, the dog doesn't need to buy a ticket, right?"

"No need."

The latter smiled with narrowed eyes, only looking at Luo Xi with a rather peculiar gaze, as if seeing this person for the first time.

"Can I go in now?"

"Of course, I'll take you in!" Dou Dou smiled and said, "Come with me; I need to tell you some precautions for this project."

Luo Xi nodded.

He waved goodbye to the three of them, and then followed Dou Dou into the dark entrance of this game scene.
