Chapter 103

Shen Yunzhe swept away the stone statues in front of him and walked out. Cheng Yiyi followed behind Shen Yunzhe. He held his cell phone in his hand and looked around, afraid that these stone statues would come alive.

Clearing a path in front of him, Shen Yunzhe grabbed the door handle and opened the door. He couldn't push the door open at all at the first push. Shen Yunzhe frowned slightly. He looked up and looked ahead. The moment the light shone past, Cheng Yiyi almost screamed.

On the glass at the door, you can see a face stuck to it, with a distorted feature and fallen paint. It is a stone statue as tall as a person.

The thing looked neither human nor human, and it looked extremely strange at this time of night.

"We can't get out of here?" Cheng Yiyi said in a low voice.

He looked around. The flashlight on his phone was dim, so he could only see a little bit of the scene in the dark. He clearly saw that all the stone statues around were looking at them. Those stone eyeballs were staring at him, which made Cheng Yiyi very nervous.

There are many such scenes in the playground, and they are very dangerous.

Cheng Yiyi felt that she shouldn't have come up here. She shouldn't have followed Shen Wei up there just because he was a policeman. As a result, she ended up in such a scary place.

What if I die? Sudden death is going to be a hot topic!

Shen Yunzhe pushed twice more, but the stone was stuck in the door perfectly and it couldn't be opened at all. Shen Yunzhe sighed and walked to the window next to him and started to open it. Fortunately, the window was normal. After Shen Yunzhe pushed the window open, he climbed in. Cheng Yiyi hurriedly followed and climbed out of the window into the aisle.

But the aisles were also full of stone statues. The densely packed stone statues blocked all the roads. The largest stone statue stood at the door, as if preventing people inside from coming out.

Shen Yunzhe held up his cell phone and looked around. There was no fear in his eyes, but he didn't smile either.

Cheng Yiyi felt that Shen Wei was too quiet and calm. This quietness and calmness were different from the previous two days. Shen Wei's calmness in the previous two days was purely because he was not afraid. Cheng Yiyi could feel that Shen Wei was just playing, but this play was a little scary. But now Shen Wei's performance was like... he finally got into work mode.

Like a forensic doctor and a policeman.

"Chen Wei." Cheng Yiyi called him.

The person in front didn't say anything, but just continued to clear the road and move forward.

"Chen Wei." Cheng Yiyi called out again.

"Ah?" Shen Yunzhe finally reacted, "You called me?"

Cheng Yiyi was silent. He felt that the current conversation was extremely familiar. Then he looked at Shen Yunzhe in surprise, "No, you forgot your name is Shen Wei again?"

"Well, I said the name is just a code name, and since I have a special identity, it's normal for me to have several names." Shen Yunzhe lied directly, "Before coming here, I was carrying out a special mission and changed my name, so I can't get used to my original name for a while."

"Aren't you a forensic doctor?"

"Can't forensic pathologists perform special tasks? You know, we need to work with the police to conduct investigations, which is very tiring."

Cheng Yiyi nodded. He didn't know much about forensic medicine, so he could only respond, "That's it."

He changed the subject, "Where are we going now?"

"Go to the rooftop." Shen Yunzhe said: "That thing brought Yang Pei to the rooftop."

"Just go like this?" Cheng Yiyi was a little nervous. "What if there's something up there? And it's still night time."

"That's why we have to go at night." Shen Yunzhe stepped on the stone statue and walked forward. "Follow closely. There is no place to climb up outside. There should be stairs on the third floor."

Cheng Yiyi quickly watched Shen Yunzhe's steps, then asked, "Why do we have to go at night?"

"Because the original contract we signed said that there would be a performance on the rooftop at twelve o'clock in the evening." Shen Yunzhe took out a thin rope from his pocket, tied it around his wrist, and then handed the other end of the rope to Cheng Yiyi, motioning him to tie it.

Cheng Yiyi quickly took it and felt a lot more at ease after tying it up in a hurry.

Only then did he think about what Shen Yunzhe had just said.

"Oh yeah, we looked for it on the first day, but we couldn't find any stairs or elevators, so we gave up. Are you saying we're going to see a show?"

“I’m afraid Yang Pei is this performance.” Shen Yunzhe glanced at Cheng Yiyi, “Maybe Shen Ji is yesterday’s performance. You also said that Shen Ji’s window was open.”

Cheng Yiyi was stunned for a moment, then realized what Shen Yunzhe meant.

The statue-like figure opened the window from the outside. It dragged Shen Ji to the rooftop last night and waited until twelve o'clock to perform a show. The result was that it dug out Shen Ji's internal organs and tongue, and stuffed him back into the house after he died.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yiyi couldn't help but tremble. He couldn't help but utter a curse in Chinese, "Fuck!"

What Shen Yunzhe said was right. After they walked out of the stone statues, they really saw a staircase at the end. Shen Yunzhe opened the door of the corridor. The corridor was clean and there was not a single stone statue. Cheng Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief. They walked up quickly. The entrances to the fourth and fifth floors were tightly closed. Fortunately, they were not going to these two places.

They came to the rooftop and the door was closed. Shen Yunzhe tried and found that the door was locked.

"Locked?" Cheng Yiyi regretted, "We had a hard time getting up here."

Then he saw Shen Yunzhe take out a wire from his pocket. Cheng Yiyi watched him put the wire into the lock, and with a click, the rooftop door opened.

Cheng Yiyi: ...

"Tell me the truth." Cheng Yiyi looked at Shen Yunzhe with a strange look, "Does being a police officer require omnipotence?"

Lock picking, terrifyingly sharp observation skills, excellent physical skills, forensic medicine...are these really abilities that an ordinary police officer can possess?!

"Because I'm better than others. Okay, we have to hurry." Shen Yunzhe pushed open the door, and the wind blew in from outside. Cheng Yiyi leaned over and saw the scene on the rooftop.

In the real town, there were no lights on at night and it was pitch black everywhere, but there was a small dim light on the rooftop. Shen Yunzhe and Cheng Yiyi walked over and looked for a while but found that there was nothing on the rooftop. Shen Yunzhe glanced at the time on his mobile phone.

"It's only nine o'clock, there are still three hours." Shen Yunzhe said, "Wait until twelve o'clock and see."

Just then, Cheng Yiyi heard a sound downstairs. He looked down and saw Shi Xingxiang. She looked at Shen Yunzhe and Cheng Yiyi in surprise.

"Chen Wei?!" Shi Xingxiang shouted, "Why are you guys up there?"

"Chen Wei brought me here." Cheng Yiyi hurriedly shouted to her, "We need to climb up from the second floor to the third floor. There are stairs on the third floor!"

Having said that, it is actually not that simple. It is a pitch-black night now. The first floor is three meters high, with only a windowsill in the middle for support. Cheng Yiyi was able to come up thanks to Shen Yunzhe holding him from above. It was completely Shen Yunzhe who pulled him up. It is difficult for an ordinary adult to do this.

Shi Xingxiang also understood this truth, not to mention that she was a girl, and a petite girl at that.

"We have to wait until twelve o'clock in the evening. You should go back first." Cheng Yiyi said, "We can talk about it tomorrow if there is anything."

After weighing the pros and cons, Shi Xingxiang nodded. She returned to the hotel and planned to go back and take a look tomorrow during the day.

Only after seeing Shi Xingxiang go back did Cheng Yiyi breathe a sigh of relief and turned around, only to see Shen Yunzhe kneeling on one knee on the ground looking at the floor of the rooftop. Cheng Yiyi walked over and used his mobile phone to help Shen Yunzhe illuminate the ground, and immediately saw the bloodstains on the rooftop.

Cheng Yiyi's hands trembled and she almost dropped her phone to the ground.

"Very fresh, left just in the past two days." Shen Yunzhe touched the bloodstain with his hand, "Chen Ji's blood."

Cheng Yiyi fell silent. He did not continue to ask Shen Yunzhe questions, but instead searched for clues on the rooftop separately with Shen Yunzhe. Three hours was enough for them to search the entire rooftop carefully, but they found nothing except scattered bloodstains on the ground.

In the end, we can only wait for the time to come.

Fortunately, time passed quickly due to the investigation and three hours went by in a flash.

"It's time." Cheng Yiyi said.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a click, and the light bulb with a dim light exploded. Cheng Yiyi was startled. The only light on the entire rooftop was from the mobile phones in their hands. Just as Cheng Yiyi was about to turn on the flashlight on her mobile phone, Shen Yunzhe held her back.

"Wait a minute." Shen Yunzhe said, "There's something."

Cheng Yiyi stopped what he was doing, and the next moment he heard a rustling sound.

This sound was not familiar, but Cheng Yiyi had heard it before. It was the same sound when the thing grabbed Yang Pei and climbed on the wall.

"Is it that thing?!" Cheng Yiyi said.

"No." Shen Yunzhe frowned and said, "More than one."

The sound began to come continuously, as if thousands of things were crawling along the wall. The sound came from the back wall of the hotel, which was facing the small houses behind it. Cheng Yiyi's face looked ugly, and he didn't have the courage to go over and take a look.

Soon, a pale hand grasped the edge of the roof, followed by more hands.

Countless pale dead bodies crawled up. They crawled and looked messy, but surprisingly, there was no bumping. Shen Yunzhe frowned and watched them crawl to a place where they stopped, then knelt down and looked ahead.

In the end, hundreds of dead people climbed onto this small rooftop.

The dead people said nothing, staring ahead with their dead white eyes, leaving only the place where the light had been.

Shen Yunzhe pulled Cheng Yiyi and squatted down with his men, looking a little less unique.

"What is this? A meeting of the dead?" Cheng Yiyi murmured softly.

"It's repentance." Shen Yunzhe said, "The dead people behind died because they were thrown into the suggestion box. Regardless of whether it was a false accusation or not, in the real town they are all people who were punished after lying. There is a confession box in the real temple, but the dead also need to repent, so they are all here."

Cheng Yiyi frowned, "What a pervert."

After all the dead were seated, a stone statue as tall as a person slowly rose from the ground. Shen Yunzhe and Cheng Yiyi saw Yang Pei appear with the stone statue.

But something didn't look right with Yang Pei. She wasn't tied up, but she was kneeling in front of the statue.

After the stone statue appeared, all the dead people present took out three incense sticks from their pockets and inserted them in front of themselves. The incense sticks burned by themselves without fire, and soon the whole rooftop was filled with a strange smell of real incense.

Cheng Yiyi covered his nose. He felt that the smell was really too bad.

"Yang Pei." He looked at Yang Pei who was kneeling in the front.

Shen Yunzhe held him down and said, "Don't be impulsive. It might be dangerous. Let's take a look first."

As soon as they finished speaking, they heard the dead man open his mouth. Although he had no tongue, he made a sound at this moment.

"I want to confess my crimes. I lied and I shouldn't have lied to my children. My children reported me for my own good." said a dead person.

"I shouldn't say my neighbor's hairpin is beautiful because in my heart I don't think it's beautiful."

"I shouldn't have hidden the fact that I was in a car accident from my husband. I deserve to die."

The dead people kept talking, and the more Cheng Yiyi listened, the uglier his expression became, because he felt that it was just a trivial matter, and most of them were even white lies. But because of this, they were reported and put into the suggestion box, and then died. Even after death, they could not rest in peace, and the dead had to come here to repent.

They confessed in unison and finally said it all, and then all the dead looked at Yang Pei.

Yang Pei knelt on the ground, his eyes empty.

"I want to repent for my sins." Yang Pei said, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied to Shen Wei. I told other people about the suggestion box, but I was afraid of Shen Wei and subconsciously lied. This is my sin."

The stone statue stood there, its eyes curved and its mouth seemed to be split open.

It seemed to be laughing.

All the dead people present raised their heads and looked at Yang Pei.

"Cut out her tongue."

"Eviscerate her."

"Truth Town doesn't allow lies!"

Cut off the tongue and dig out the internal organs, this is how Shen Ji died!

Cheng Yiyi looked at Shen Yunzhe anxiously, wanting to ask him what to do, but Shen Yunzhe shook his head.

"Yang Pei is dead."

"What?!"

Yang Pei was kneeling on the ground, but blood had already dripped all over the ground. Her eyes were empty, exactly the same as the four people around her. Although the distance was not close and it was still dark, Shen Yunzhe could still see her bloody abdomen. Her tongue and internal organs had been dug out when she was dragged to the rooftop.

This 12 o'clock performance is just a performance.

Shen Yunzhe pointed to the ground, and Cheng Yiyi saw the pool of blood. He closed his eyes and sighed softly, knowing that there was nothing he could do.

Anyone who tells a lie and is put in the suggestion box will die.

Shen Yunzhe looked at the stone statue. The statue seemed to be looking at him, but the stone eyes seemed to have emotions. Its eyes were filled with pride, as if telling Shen Yunzhe that it had won.

Yang Pei, who was stopped by Shen Yunzhe and did not repent, still died. After her death, she had to kneel here and say all the words she did not have time to repent.

Shen Yunzhe remembered what Qiao Dong had said. Starting from the fourth game field, they would have a chance to encounter ghosts with thoughts and communication. Unfortunately, the ghosts would not listen to the players. Having thoughts would only make things more terrifying and difficult for them.

This statue was definitely intentional.

Thinking of this, Shen Yunzhe's eyes took on a dangerous look, and he whispered, "Sooner or later, I will smash you into pieces."

Cheng Yiyi turned her head and looked at him suddenly, "What did you say?"

"Smash the statue." Shen Yunzhe sneered, "Smash the temple along with it."

Cheng Yiyi: ...

So fierce!

The performance on the rooftop lasted only half an hour. Yang Pei was kneeling and confessing unconsciously until the stone statue disappeared. The dead people climbed down from the upstairs again one by one, and finally they saw Yang Pei climbing down like them.

There was a small house among the pile of dead bodies, and Yang Pei squatted with them next to her own small house.

Shen Yunzhe stood up and walked downstairs, and Cheng Yiyi hurriedly followed him.

"Chen Wei." Cheng Yiyi called him.

Shen Yunzhe ignored him and suddenly said, "Can the playground be destroyed? I mean destroy it."

Cheng Yiyi almost rolled down the stairs. He looked around in horror, "Chen Wei, who are you talking to?"

"Only when the mission is completed." Shen Yunzhe turned his head and looked at Cheng Yiyi, with coldness still in his eyes. He waved to Cheng Yiyi, indicating that he should follow him closely.

Cheng Yiyi stood there for a few seconds, and finally convinced herself that everything was fine. She moved step by step to Shen Yunzhe's side.

[You can only leave here after completing the mission. I don't recommend you go directly to the game field.]

"Even the medium can't do it?"

[The medium must not be destroyed, because the medium is the key to your leaving the game field.]

Shen Yunzhe raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes filled with annoyance and anger.

Having just desynchronized himself with the person codenamed Sleep Disorder, he was still in a state of fury. If anyone dared to pull his beard, he would punch them back. Now that his beard was pulled, he couldn't fight back. He was very unhappy.

【have. 】

A voice suddenly appeared beside Shen Yunzhe's ears. There was a hint of deliberate coaxing in the voice, which was very obvious, as if it was afraid that he couldn't hear it.

"hope?"

【Breaking the rules is equivalent to destroying the balance of the game field.】

[Since this is a distorted truth, then you should shatter it with distorted falsehood.]
