Day of Imprisonment

"Is he really okay?" Wu Rui asked, her face full of worry, watching Luo Xi's figure disappear over there.

"Although it's a bit dangerous, I think Boss is fine." Ke Lan said at this moment, then looked around and whispered, "Compared to that, I always feel that Dou Dou is very strange."

"What do you mean?" Wu Rui was stunned.

"Her attitude changed a little too quickly. Don't you remember? Just a dozen minutes ago, she couldn't wait to tear Boss into eight pieces. Why is she suddenly so enthusiastic?" Ke Lan squinted his eyes, thinking about the problem.

"What's so strange about that? She is the administrator of this level scene. She naturally knows the danger of this game project. She can kill someone with a borrowed knife without even having to do it herself. Why not?" Wu Rui thought for a while and gave a possibility.

"But I still feel something is wrong. If she wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife, she doesn't need to limit it to just one person participating. Wouldn't it be better to trick us all in and use the game mechanism to kill us all?"

"That's true!" Wu Rui couldn't think of a rebuttal.

According to Ke Lan, Dou Dou was indeed very strange.

Mao Ge, who was next to them, heard the conversation between the two, pondered for a moment, and said, "If you can see that Dou Dou is strange, Luo Xi must be able to see it too. Speaking of which, he's alone, without the burden of the three of us, maybe he can let go and do things more easily."

"Brother Mao, that's not right. The three of us are not useless. Besides, if he encounters some special situations alone, he needs someone to help him."

"That's what you say, but that little girl won't let us in, so there's nothing we can do." Mao Ge sighed.

Ke Lan's expression was strange at this time.

Because he suddenly realized a possibility.

That is, the boss secretly reached some kind of 'agreement' with the administrator Dou Dou.

Of course, it was reached behind their backs.

Ke Lan could even be sure that one of them was to let Dou Dou use the administrator's authority to prevent himself, Wu Rui, and Mao Ge from participating in this project.

The purpose is obvious.

It is to protect them.

And this is very consistent with the boss's style, that is, he will take care of his own people in places that others can't see, but on the surface, he doesn't seem to care about anything.

"Boss, I would rather it be because you think the three of us are a burden that you don't want to bring us." Ke Lan thought to himself.

Strictly speaking, his guess is very likely.

Because Dou Dou had said before that this is her territory, and she can temporarily change all the rules.

The rule that only one person is allowed to participate in 'Traveling in the Fairy Tale Town' is obviously added by her temporarily.

The important thing is that no one can say she is wrong.

"If it's just Wu Rui and me, maybe we are really a burden, but Mao Ge has the ability of [Resentful Aura Soaring to the Sky]. When encountering enemies that cannot be defeated by force, Mao Ge is the strongest combat power. Even an administrator who has reached Elite B-level can be fought head-on by Mao Ge, so not even bringing Mao Ge means that the boss himself is not confident?"

Ke Lan didn't dare to think anymore.

At this time, an employee wearing a mascot costume came over and asked them to leave here and go to the rest area outside. The three walked over with heavy hearts.

After Ke Lan sat down, he immediately took out his phone and opened the group chat.

Inside, Qian Pangzi was still constantly sending some information he had collected about 'Fairy Tale Town'.

"Brother Luo, very few people know about Fairy Tale Town, but generally, senior players who have experienced more cycle days have heard of it more or less. Most of them don't believe that 'Fairy Tale Town' really exists, and think it's just a lie made up by some boring guy."

"Brother Luo, I found an insider from the Time Assembly Hall. He said that there seems to be a special intelligence collection job about 'Fairy Tale Town' in the Assembly Hall, and it is said that there are many clues. I am now trying to pry them out of their mouths."

"'Fairy Tale Town' is very dangerous. An old guy has a card like Diviner. I spent two [Memories] to have him do a divination. He told me not to go, and said that if I go, I will definitely not come back. Brother Luo, I'm a little panicked. You must stabilize first and don't act rashly."

"Luo Xi, why aren't you guys talking? Ke Lan, you son of a b*tch, say something! What's the situation on your side?"

Qian Pangzi's reaction was very fast over there.

"Gone in? What do you mean?"

But before Ke Lan could type a reply, Qian Pangzi's next sentence had already been sent.

"Boss entered 'Fairy Tale Town'? No way, isn't this too urgent? According to my current understanding, that place is a dangerous place that eats people and doesn't spit out bones. Once you go, you won't come back. Why didn't you persuade him?"

"Pangzi, don't blame Ke Lan for this. We were all there. You know how Luo Xi does things. No one can stop what he decides."

Mao Ge: "I don't think there's any need to be so pessimistic. I'm still relieved about Luo Xi's work."

Guo Zening: "I'm also relieved."

Qian Pangzi: "Damn, you don't understand. Xiao Guo, why are you joining in the fun? You know the information that's been found out here."

Guo Zening stopped speaking.

Qian Pangzi was also silent for a while.

Ke Lan thought for a while and continued typing: "Don't stop collecting information. Even if we don't go in, maybe we can do something within our power outside. Also, the fact that no one can come out of 'Fairy Tale Town' may not be absolute, because since it is a level scene, according to the design rules of the scene, there must be a 'way out' for people. You should all be clear about this, so even if it's difficult, logically speaking, someone will clear the level..."

Qian Pangzi: "I understand. Xiao Guo and I won't stop here, and I remember that Brother Luo seemed to use some special phone to contact us who were in the scene last time, maybe this time it's possible too, then, according to what you said, let's continue."

Ke Lan: "If there are any new situations, tell us in the group in time. If it involves other areas, we will rush over. Everyone cheer up. Boss is different from others. I believe him. If 'Fairy Tale Town' really exists, even if no one has ever cleared it in the past, as long as Boss goes, he will definitely clear it."

Qian Pangzi: "That's right, then, everyone cheer up. [Cheering emoji] [Cheering emoji] [Cheering emoji]!"

Wu Rui: "Cheer up!"

Mao Ge: "Cheer up!"

Guo Zening: "We can do it!"

"The style of this scene is very different from the outside." In the dim corridor, Luo Xi observed the surrounding scenery. The walls were covered with illustrations of various familiar fairy tales. Similar illustrations were also found in many places, including other places and areas of Dou Dou's game room.

But this place is very different.

Both are purely hand-painted, not the kind of industrial products that are printed out.

But in terms of style, the hand-painted paintings outside are very bright, with a positive and sunny thing in them. It is because of this that Luo Xi judged that the administrators and employees of Dou Dou's game room were not eroded and polluted by the terrifying and desperate emotions of the Forbidden Day.

They still yearn for beauty and a normal life.

Even in this environment, in the level scene that kills the Memory Retrievers, they try their best to decorate it like a warm family, caring and helping each other like family members.

And in this 'Traveling in the Fairy Tale Town' game area, the decorated paintings are full of a dark style.

For example, Snow White, who ate the poisoned apple, died tragically; for example, the second sister who secretly wore Cinderella's crystal shoes, stared with fierce eyes, using a knife to cut off her heel, dripping with blood

"This is not strange. All the decorations and paintings must be unified with the specific game project. This is originally a horror-oriented project. The only purpose is..." Dou Dou said next to him: "It is to tell everyone that fairy tales are all lies!"

"It seems that the person who designed this game has a lot of ideas." Luo Xi's words seemed to have a point.

Dou Dou didn't say anything.

There were some plaster sculptures in front, which were also classic images from various fairy tales.

Suddenly, Luo Xi stopped, looked at the plaster statues over there, then walked over and stood in front of one of the statues.

"This is the Scarecrow, a character in the fairy tale "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" written by Lyman Frank Baum. Haven't you heard of it?" Dou Dou walked over and said.

"I'm not interested in fairy tales. I haven't read them." Luo Xi said casually, and then continued forward. Beside him, the black undead looked at the entrance, and its two dog eyes glowed faintly in the dim environment.

"The front is the starting point for traveling in the fairy tale town." Dou Dou walked over and turned on a light. It could be vaguely seen that the front was actually arranged as a very mini, fairy-tale-like small dock. There were cute mushroom chairs on the wooden dock, and an oil lamp was hung on a wooden pole that was more than one person tall.

There was actually a small river in front.

However, the width was only two or three meters, which was the kind of artificial small river channel in amusement parks where you need to ride a tour boat.

A cute little wooden boat was parked on the shore.

Dou Dou walked over and jumped on the boat first.

Luo Xi glanced at her.

"I thought you were just talking about providing a playing companion."

"That's what you thought. I never just talk. Since I said I would provide you with free playing companion services, I will definitely do what I say." Dou Dou smiled, with a light called 'cunning' flashing in her eyes.
