Chapter 121 The Withered

Chapter 121 The Withered

When she heard Luo Xi's question, Denise Leung felt a chill down her spine.

She actually knew there was a card that could force anyone to answer questions, and they must not lie.

Originally, the best way to deal with the power of this card was to tell the truth.

This way, the power of the card cannot harm the person being questioned.

But the questions the other party asked were ones that he couldn't answer.

At this moment, she felt a fear she had never felt before.

Answering means death, and not answering also means death.

This is a dead end!

She was stunned for a long time, thinking a lot in her mind, but she had no solution at all. As a result, her thoughts were messy, more like smashing a Lego building with tens of thousands of parts, but requiring it to be restored within a few minutes.

She felt the sword in her chest begin to move forward, piercing her clothes and touching her skin. Death had already enveloped her.

In an instant, she understood and looked up at Luo Xi.

"You came here to kill me from the beginning"

Luo Xi shook his head: "Wrong answer!"

The next moment, the Sword of Restraint instantly pierced Liang Yunshi's heart. She widened her eyes, and blood flowed out from the corners of her mouth. Then she fell to the ground, without a breath.

died!

Luo Xi observed the other person and did not go over immediately in order to prevent him from reviving his body.

Who knows if this woman has any backup plans? After all, she is an administrator.

And to be honest, although Luo Xi used the [Sword of Restraint], this was his first time dealing with an administrator, and there were too many hidden risks.

For example, does this action count as an 'active attack' on the administrator?

For another example, if the power of this card cannot restrain the administrator, then if the previous condition is met, it would be reasonable for Denise Leung to kill herself, and even gods could not stop her.

Fortunately, what Luo Xi worried about did not happen.

Denise Leung was killed by the Sword of Restraint.

As expected, the other party chose to refuse to answer instead of answering. This is normal. Although both of them will die, there is definitely a difference between dying at the sword of restriction and dying at the hands of the boss.

If she kills herself, maybe Denise Leung still has a chance to revive and preserve her memory. It is even possible that the company will stand up for her and seek justice for her. However, if she violates company regulations, she will not only die but also be fired by the company.

Any 'welfare benefits' are gone.

Anyone with brains knows what to choose.

But for Luo Xi, this result was completely within his expectations.

After confirming that the woman on the ground was 100% dead and unable to move, Luo Xi immediately stepped forward and began to search the body.

They took off her clothes to see if there was anything hidden inside. Sure enough, they found a work ID card on the lower back of Leung Yung-shi. In addition to the woman's photo and basic information, there was also a work card with a note on it that read 314.

“Is that the office number?”

Luo Xi was not sure whether it was true or not, so he first dragged Teacher Liang's body into the house and then found a place to hide it.

The woman died with her eyes open, as if she was looking at Luo Xi.

Luo Xi was not afraid at all, but after thinking about it, he closed the other person's eyelids.

"It's mainly because it's ugly to open your eyes like this."

Muttering something, Luo Xi went upstairs.

He quickly found Office 314.

The door of this office is obviously special than that of other offices.

Looks relatively old.

"The administrator's real office area is not affected by the reset of the Day of Confinement, so this door looks older than the other doors, which is normal." Luo Xi knew that he had found the right place.

At this time, there was no one on the second and third floors of the teaching building. Luo Xi walked to the door very smoothly and swiped his work card.

drop!
The green light came on and the door unlocked.

Luo Xi continued to observe carefully, checking for any possible mechanisms and traps.

"There's a strand of hair stuck in the crack of the door. This woman is really careful enough." Luo Xi saw through this trick, but it was obvious that a small trick like a strand of hair could only prove that someone had secretly come to the office, but it could not attack the intruder.

Open the door and there is an office inside.

There is just an obvious 'old feeling'.

This sense of oldness is reflected in the books on the table. Many of them have turned yellow because they have been read too many times. The leather on the tables and chairs is also cracked and worn, and the wall paint also shows signs of peeling. There is a cup of used tea on the table, and the tea leaves in it are still steeped, but have already gone cold.

Luo Xi could be sure that this was Leung Wan-shi's management office.

"Items brought into the management room will not be affected by the reset mechanism of the Day of Imprisonment."

I don’t know if it’s because of this, but there are a lot of things in the office that don’t belong here.

For example, dolls.

There are many. Another example is small animals.

Luo Xi saw at least two birds, a tank of fish, three hamsters and a cat
The cat was now in the corner, looking at him curiously.

This place is more like a living room than an office.

Because Luo Xi saw a folding bed.

There were beddings on the bed, not folded but scattered.

Luo Xi glanced over and then closed the door.

He began to explore the place from all angles, including the garbage that had already been thrown into the trash can.

Apart from Zhou Xinpeng's home, this was the first time that Luo Xi could explore a management office without any scruples.

But unlike Zhou Xinpeng, there are a lot of clues about Leung Denise, even explosively.

Luo Xi found the information of 'Teacher Han' effortlessly.

In addition to Teacher Han, there is also a little boy named Yang Minghao.

These materials were placed on the table openly. Perhaps in Leung Wan-shi's view, no one except herself could enter here.

"Blighter?"

Luo Xi saw the marks on Teacher Han and Yang Minghao’s information.

These materials were obviously specially compiled. In addition to the information of these two people, there were several others, who should all be the "employees" in the scene of Tuntun Primary School. Luo Xi soon discovered that these materials actually contained the "death description" of each person.

Looking at the time, some were from a few days ago, some were from a few months ago, or even one or two years ago.

Obviously, they were all people who died outside of the days of confinement.

"Is it because death is compared to a withering flower that it is called the Witherer?" Luo Xi gave a speculation.

There are also some descriptions in the information.

"There is no need to pay any compensation for hiring the Withered Ones. They do not have the rights that 'humans' have. When each level scene is formed, there is a certain chance that the Withered Ones will be born. It is said that the Withered Ones are the living people's memory of the dead."

"Please note that the information of the Withered One is the contract. If you take it away from the scene, you can release the corresponding Withered One."

Luo Xi smiled when he saw this.

Obviously, when he found the information about the Withered Ones, he had already achieved his original goal.

Rescue Teacher Han.

But are we just going to save Teacher Han?
Luo Xi looked at the stack of information about the Withered in his hand and fell into deep thought.

"Saving one person is the same as saving a group. Besides, I've already offended her, so I'm not afraid of offending more."

You can take them all away.

But soon, Luo Xi discovered a problem.

The information of these Withered Ones is not a card item. Although it is also a special item, if it cannot be turned into a card, it will still be affected by the rules of the Day of Confinement. In other words, it will not be saved on the next cycle day and will be reset.

And these things originally existed in a certain level scene.

If you take it out and the day of confinement is reset, what will happen?
There are two possibilities. One is that the Withered One's data will be "refreshed" in the original level scene; the other possibility is that it will disappear with the reset and be completely annihilated.
If it is the first possibility, it would be fine. But if it is the second, taking the Withered Ones' information out would be equivalent to killing them completely.

This question obviously stumped Luo Xi.

Unless he had a place to save the items when the cycle day reset, he had no way to take the Withered's information away.

And there seems to be no solution to this problem.

Luo Xi sat on the office chair that originally belonged to Leung Yung-shi, frowning.

After a moment, he continued to explore here, and soon, he opened a locked drawer and found an 'Administrator Contract' from it.

This should be Denise Leung’s contract, and her name is on it.

But at this moment, Liang Yunshi's name was actually in a strange shadow, as if it was gradually eroded and blurred by some force, and it seemed to be looming.

"It's because Liang Yunshi was killed by the Sword of Constraint, so this happened." Luo Xi found an administrator's log next to him. There were many records on it. The latest one read: "Tuntun Primary School" 49th cycle, scene attributes: Chaos 98, Yin and Yang 75; high degree of freedom scene, does not have the conditions for the birth of the memory collector, and there is no cleaner in the scene; scene administrator: Liang Yunshi, current level: Elite B, attendance times 300, attendance rate %, current score /
11 employees in the scene: Han Fengtian (Withered), Yang Minghao (Withered)
According to the scene rules, any Memory Collector who enters the scene must be marked by the administrator. The marked Memory Collector will be automatically implanted with a 'suicide bug'. After leaving the scene, the suicide bug will become ineffective. If the Memory Collector fails to challenge a mini-game in the scene, the corresponding suicide bug will be activated. Otherwise, the suicide bug cannot be activated.

At this time, Luo Xi slapped his thigh, stood up, opened the door and walked out.

When there was no one around, he ran madly downstairs. Only when he reached the first floor did Luo Xi stop running, walk at a normal speed, pass through the bustling crowd, and directly find the half-body corpse of Teacher Han.

"You're here again. Do you want to challenge me again? If you want to challenge me again, then the internal organs that need to be reassembled this time will have to be replaced. Hey, what are you going to do?"

After being carried up, Teacher Han was stunned.

He was obviously panicked and confused.

Luo Xi did not respond. After carrying Teacher Han, he immediately walked towards the second floor.

"Put it down quickly, sir. Do you know what you are doing? Your current behavior has violated the rules of the scene. You will die."

Teacher Han warned with a serious face.

"Stop arguing, Denise Leung is dead." Luo Xi's words shocked Teacher Han so much that he almost screamed.
