Chapter 31: Ways to Leave, Murderer
Chapter 31: Ways to Leave, Murderer
Su Ming nodded and responded, "I know it wasn't you. You didn't leave the room last night."
The good man was relieved to hear this.
As long as the gaming geek believes in himself, other players can say whatever they want.
Faced with Fei Ge's questioning, the three players all felt aggrieved.
They began to take turns recounting what happened last night: "Neptune and I watched the first half of the night until one in the morning, and he was still fine at that time."
"Then we changed shifts, and they saw it, too. Aquaman was still alive at the time, and we had a few words with him."
"Who knew that when I woke up, something like this would happen!"
"Yes! We have been very careful. If we can kill people like this, then we will be hard to guard against against fake players!"
"Besides, he may not be among us. It doesn't say that you have to be in the same room to kill someone. Maybe the fake player has some tricks up his sleeve."
……
After the three players explained, the other players also felt that it made sense.
Indeed, this is not Detective Conan. There is no way to narrow down the range of murderers and then choose one from among the three.
It is also very possible that none of the three players is the murderer.
Moreover, how could ordinary players have the means to let another player die so peacefully?
They came to escape the town, not to investigate the case and catch the murderer.
"Otherwise, let's think about how to escape from this town first!"
"That's what's going on. Leaving early is more important than anything else."
"The longer you stay, the greater the chance of encountering danger."
"Brother Fei, what should we do now? You have experience, can you show us a way?"
"That's right, that's right. How on earth can we escape from this town? I have absolutely no idea."
Brother Fei listened to what the three players said, but he didn't find any flaws and didn't want to get entangled any further.
After all, it's a horror game, so it's normal for someone to die, as long as it's not you who dies.
So he said, "In that case, let's put the matter of the dead aside for now."
"We had to stay in town yesterday because the bus broke down."
"So, the key to the problem should be how to fix the car!"
"We should focus our main energy on this matter!"
As soon as Fei Ge finished speaking, the driver came over.
Hearing the conversation between the players, he was immediately shocked: "What? Someone died?"
"It's bad, it's bad. What should I do if the company holds me accountable later?"
"Such a big thing has happened. If the family members make a fuss, the company will not push me out as a scapegoat, right..."
"Have you notified the police?"
Player: "Um... not yet..."
What is the Sheriff's Bureau?
The players had never heard of it and thought it might be a special law enforcement agency in the dungeon, similar to a police station.
The driver was a little anxious: "Someone's dead, and you haven't notified the police yet! What are you doing here with so many people gathered here?"
After saying this, he directly opened his cell phone, hurriedly made a call, and described the situation.
About ten minutes later, a car arrived at the Rest Inn.
A security guard with half gray hair and two young men came over.
They briefly asked about the situation, then placed the body on a stretcher and carried it away.
Before leaving, he said, "We are sending the body for examination. Before the results of the investigation, please do not leave the town and keep your cell phones open. We may need your cooperation."
Driver: "This matter has nothing to do with our company, right? Our company should not be responsible, right?"
Security guard: "I can't come to a conclusion yet. I'll tell you when the investigation results come out."
The driver sighed: "Oh, okay, I will report the situation to the company right away."
"It's such an unexpected disaster. I hope my supervisor won't fire me directly."
I saw that the driver was still worried about the dead player.
Brother Fei urged, "Driver, let's find a way to leave this town first. I have something urgent to deal with."
The driver was a little depressed: "This... isn't appropriate! After all, the security guard told us not to leave the town." Hearing this, the players began to get anxious.
This town is so dangerous that some players have died here.
Why don't you let them go?
Isn't this messing with people's mentality?
Other players started to speak up: "I have something urgent to do too, I have to go home quickly."
"Indeed, I'm about to start school and I don't have time to waste here."
"My boss told me to go back and work overtime quickly, otherwise my salary will be deducted."
"My grandpa just passed away and I have to go back as soon as possible to attend his funeral."
"My wife is about to give birth, I have to go back immediately."
"Let us go first. The dead have nothing to do with us. Why do you have to detain us here?"
"Is this how your company does things?"
……
The players found various reasons to urge the driver to find a way to leave the town.
This made the already frustrated driver even more confused.
He said, "Just be patient, I'll call the company."
After saying that, he dialed the phone and ran to the side to start talking.
After a while, he came back: "The company sent a new bus to pick us up, and it will arrive this afternoon."
"When the time comes, you can get on that bus and leave first. We will slowly figure out how to deal with this broken-down bus."
After hearing this, the players were finally satisfied.
"That would be perfect."
"As long as we can leave this town, everything is fine."
"I hope everything goes well."
"Then let's wait until the afternoon and see what happens?"
"Does Phineas have anything to say?"
……
Players all hope that things will end here.
The bus will arrive safely in the afternoon and take them away from this hellhole.
Faced with questions from other players, Invincible Fei Ge actually didn’t have any better ideas.
He didn't want to take the risk of going out again, otherwise he would be in trouble if he encountered any danger in the town.
All I could say was, "Then let's just stay in the hotel until the afternoon."
However, the two players, Su Ming and the good guy, had already arrived at the first floor of the hotel.
Good guy: "Boss, what are we going to do?"
Su Ming: "Get down to business."
Su Ming can do it alone, and if good people insist on following him, it doesn’t matter if they come together.
Walk straight to the proprietress at the front desk.
The lady boss asked, "Hello, how can I help you?"
Su Ming got straight to the point: "That man was killed by your hotel, right?"
The proprietress's face darkened: "Guest, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
"We at Rest Inn have always been doing business in an honest manner and have never done anything illegal or disorderly."
The good people were horrified when they heard this.
Why is this big guy so reckless in doing things? He just hits me in the face?
This is on someone else's territory!
He was already looking towards the hotel exit, ready to run away immediately if the situation went wrong.
