Excessive ferocity due to caution

As soon as Zhao Yi stepped outside, the other players immediately surrounded him.

"How is it?"

Red-haired Li Qi was the first to ask a question.

She was quite attractive, but had a very large scar on her face.

Among the players present, her level was closest to Zhao Yi's.

Zhao Yi is 12, and she is 13.

Having experienced many dungeons, she deeply understands the terror of hellish difficulty dungeons, let alone the dungeon she is currently in, which is a desperate situation.

Li Qi knew that the greater the difficulty and danger of a game instance, the richer the rewards.

She had a lot of health points left, so Li Qi wasn't worried about dying in this instance.

But she wanted a reward!

Huge reward!

Just those two thousand-plus experience points are enough to make her envious!

"There's no danger."

Zhao Yi yawned.

Seeing Zhao Yi like this, the others felt a little relieved.

The interview lasted for a total of 4 hours.

There were 8 players, two of whom failed the interview.

Six children were allowed to stay at the orphanage.

The remaining two players are Wang Kai (Lv18) and Xu Xiaocheng (Lv17).

Their faces were ashen.

Although the two men had tried their best to use sweet talk during the interview, Liu Meimei, the female administrator of Miracle Kindergarten, rejected them on the grounds that they already had enough students.

According to the rules of Miracle Kindergarten, non-employees are not allowed to stay here for long.

and so……

They got into big trouble right from the start!

This game instance has a designated area; if they leave, the mission will be considered a failure!

Players at this level have saved up some health points and aren't particularly worried about dying in dungeons. However, the rewards for dungeons with extreme difficulty are exceptionally generous, and if they miss them, they don't know when they'll have to wait several months to encounter one again!

In this cruel world, no one doesn't want to climb the ladder.

Only by constantly becoming stronger can one be qualified to survive in this vast world!

"There's no other way..."

The two exchanged a glance, understanding each other's thoughts.

Leaving is impossible.

The Miracle Orphanage is very large; they can find a place to hide first and then see how things unfold!

After everyone had decided whether to stay or leave, Wang and Xu said goodbye to Liu Meimei on the surface, but secretly surveyed the terrain and found a secluded place to hide.

The other six players were taken to the dormitory by the female administrator.

A very clean and tidy apartment.

Six people live in a house, which is about 300 square meters and has 6 bedrooms and 1 living room.

All kinds of furniture are neatly arranged.

Everything is available.

Liu Meimei gave each of the six players a key and said with a serious expression:

"Your schedule is in your room. Tomorrow is your first day. I'll show you around and familiarize you with the work. For the next six days, just follow the schedule and work diligently. After the probation period ends, we'll decide your future based on your performance!"

Everyone agreed.

Then Liu Meimei left the apartment.

After she left, the first thing everyone did was look for any surveillance cameras in the room.

Zhao Yi's sinister gaze proved invaluable; with just a glance, he confirmed that there were no cameras in the room Liu Meimei had arranged for them.

There was no danger in the room.

"The mission time is calculated from midnight tonight... which means we won't encounter any danger before midnight tonight..."

"Perhaps we can take this opportunity to explore the orphanage properly!"

Li Qi began his analysis.

But Wu Daquan quickly rejected it.

He was at level fourteen, one level higher than Li Qi.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the first time anyone has experienced a dungeon of extreme difficulty... Who can guarantee that the system won't exploit our cognitive biases?"

"You thought we were safe during this time, but you've actually walked right into a trap set by the system!"

Wu Daquan doesn't like to argue.

His words made sense, and everyone present remained silent.

Li Qi suddenly stood up and walked towards the toilet.

Wu Daquan hurriedly asked:

"Li Qi, where are you going?"

Three people present had watched Zhao Yi's live stream, and Wu Daquan was one of them.

Li Qi turned his head, a question mark appearing on his forehead:

"I'm going to the restroom, what do you think I'm doing?"

"Should I go eat?"

Wu Daquan remained silent for a moment.

He couldn't think of anything to say, so he managed to utter a few words:

"What if there's a ghost inside?"

Li Qi:

"?"

Wu Daquan said awkwardly:

"I'm not cursing you... it's just that in my last instance, there was a woman with red hair who went to the toilet and was skinned alive by a ghost hiding inside. She died a horrible death..."

Li Qi:

"You son of a bitch..."

Even so, she still clenched her fists.

Seeing that Li Qi was angry, Wu Daquan stopped talking.

But after he did that, Li Qi really didn't dare to go to the toilet.

Just keep it to yourself.

She sighed, went to the balcony, took out a cigarette, lit it, and started smoking.

Damn it, what bad luck!

After finishing her cigarette, she felt better and mustered up the courage to go to the restroom.

Li Qi sat on the toilet, with a large mirror in front of him.

She didn't know why the mirror was placed in front of the toilet.

It doesn't make any sense.

Who stares at themselves while using the toilet?

Li Qi, after carefully examining the mirror, suddenly noticed faint marks on it.

It looks like it was doodled on with a ballpoint pen, but then it was erased.

Suddenly, Li Qi thought of something, took out his lighter from his pocket, lit it, and placed it under the mirror, gently heating the marks...

Temperature is rising.

Two neat characters appeared before Li Qi.

【Help】

Li Qi was taken aback.

"Help?"

She quickly pulled up her pants, came out of the toilet, and recounted what had happened there.

The group went to the restroom.

Sure enough, I saw those two words.

"Who do you think wrote this?"

The short, thin young man, Meng Huo, pushed up his glasses with a faux wood frame.

He was the highest-level player in this instance.

Lv21.

It also comes from the Tianwang Guild.

He was very composed; although thin, he gave people a sense of security.

"Who knows... could it be one of the people who applied last time?"

Wu Daquan's two thick eyebrows were furrowed into a single line.

Meng Huo glanced sideways at Zhao Yi, who was deep in thought.

He had watched Zhao Yi's live stream and knew a little about this newcomer.

He knew that this guy, who seemed to be the lowest-ranking member of the team... was not simple.

Not all gamers enjoy watching live streams.

Only three people in this team had watched Zhao Yi's live stream.

One is Meng Huo.

One of them is Li Qi.

There's also Wu Daquan.

"Zhao Yi, what do you think?"

Meng Huo was not arrogant.

He knew all too well the difficulty and the rich rewards of the "Desperate Situation" dungeon.

Cooperation is always easier than fighting alone.

In particular, your teammate is a very capable person.

Zhao Yi saw Meng Huo suddenly mention him and said:

"The handwriting doesn't look like that of an adult."

The crowd looked at the handwriting with slightly strange expressions.

The handwriting is not childish.

Why did Zhao Yi say it didn't seem like it was written by an adult?

Meng Huo's gaze held a hint of admiration:

"good."

"That's what I meant too."

Seeing that he was speaking in riddles, Wu Daquan couldn't help but say:

"No...the handwriting is perfectly normal!"

"How did you two figure out it wasn't written by an adult?!"

Meng Huo took out a pen and handed it to him.

"If you each write 'Help!' and compare them, you'll see the difference."

Although they found it a bit strange, they did as instructed.

Apart from Meng Huo and Zhao Yi, the remaining four players all wrote "Help!"

Upon comparison, they suddenly realized!

The two words on the mirror... were written so neatly.

There is no cursive writing.

It's not crooked or twisted.

But it wasn't well-written either.

It is clear that the person writing is someone who is writing seriously, but has not been learning to write for very long.

"Could they be the children from the orphanage?"

Boiled chicken suddenly offered a conjecture.

"That possibility cannot be ruled out..."

Meng Huo pondered for a moment.

He suggested that everyone search the room for any other clues.

The group searched for a while.

Finally, they found a note stuck to the bottom of the TV cabinet.

The text above reads:

Don't let miracles happen too easily.

"A miracle has occurred?"

"What do you mean?"

Everyone was completely confused.

...

One night passed.

The next morning, early in the morning, the female manager knocked on the bedroom doors of the six people.

"Today is your first day working at the Miracle Orphanage."

"Let me show you around the workflow first."

As Liu Meimei led everyone to the classroom specially built for the orphans here, she said to the players:

"You have six classes every day."

"There are exactly one class per period, and there are a total of 6 classes here, with 60 students in each class."

"These poor orphans lost their parents when they were young, and no one took care of them. The director took them in and raised them at the Miracle Orphanage. The oldest child here is 14 years old, and the youngest is only six years old..."

"What you need to do is teach these children as much as possible what's on the curriculum and be their friend!"

"Good children should be rewarded, and disobedient children... should be severely punished!"

The female manager rattled off a whole bunch of things.

Until the school bell rang.

The children sat very well in their seats, with their hands neatly folded on the table.

Even when there are no teachers in the classroom, they maintain a high level of discipline.

Liu Meimei brought six teachers to Class 1.

"Children, these six teachers were specially invited by Grandpa Dean to teach you... You must get along well with them and never make them angry, understand?"

"Okay~"

All the children looked at the six players with curiosity and goodwill.

"Our first lesson today is 'anatomy'."

As Liu Meimei spoke, she clapped her hands, and suddenly a blind and lame old man appeared outside the classroom door, carrying a cage of fluffy, snow-white rabbits. He placed the cage in a corner of the classroom.

The players were all taken aback when they saw the old man.

They...didn't hear the old man's footsteps at all!

I also couldn't sense any aura emanating from the old man!

This old man, who looks as withered as decaying wood, is stronger than all of them...!

Zhao Yi activated his Evil Eyes.

But all I saw were a bunch of question marks.

He immediately realized... the system was playing tricks!

This old man holds a very important secret!

Liu Meimei took a well-behaved, pure white rabbit out of the cage, placed it on the podium, picked up a scalpel, and quickly cut off the rabbit's head before starting to skin it...

As Liu Meimei clumsily peeled the skin off the little white rabbit, bright red blood splattered everywhere!

On her body, on the podium, on the blackboard behind her...

Finally, Liu Meimei picked up a tattered rabbit skin and smiled slightly at the children below.

"And just like that, a rabbit pelt is finished."

slam-la-

A round of enthusiastic applause erupted from below the podium!

The player next to him felt a chill run down his spine...

Giving these kinds of lessons to these little kids...

Isn't that a bit too perverted?

Liu Meimei threw away the knife in her hand and said to a little girl closest to the door below:

"Xiao Hong, now you come up here and set an example for everyone..."

"Today, everyone will skin the rabbit themselves!"

"Only through practice can one gain true knowledge!"

Little Red clutched her skirt with her small hands, her face showing timidity.

"Aunt Liu..."

"Why skin such a cute bunny?"

Liu Meimei's smile froze, then turned somewhat chilling:

"Little Red...be good..."

"Hurry up and get on..."

P.S.: I went out to get my ID card done today.

My ID card was issued when I was in high school.

In order to be able to access the internet with my own ID card after the college entrance examination.

Before you know it, ten years have passed.

I was 18 that year, standing like a lackey at the entrance of an internet cafe.

It feels like it was just yesterday.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, I became the father of a child who had not yet become a fertilized egg.

Time flies!

I've quit my job. Everyone's been feeling anxious lately, so I'll just stay home and write novels for you all.

I will resume daily updates of 6000 words tomorrow.

Goodnight, my darlings!
