Chapter 581 [(*^▽^*)]
After Lin Wanyi and Lin Leyou left the restaurant, Lin Leyou sighed, "Let's go hiking after we finish eating? It's suddenly autumn, and the scenery at this resort seems even more beautiful."
Xue Rui: "That's fine, we can take some photos at the top of the mountain later, and then..."
Lin Leyou said, "When I get back, I'll print it out, put it in a frame, and hang it on the wall or put it on a cabinet."
Xue Rui thought about it and realized that there was no way to do it in the real world, but there was a way to do it in Lin Leyou's Happy Community.
Xue Rui: "Okay, I want to take a good look at these photos next time I go."
Lin Leyou chuckled, "What are you thinking! We haven't even taken the photos yet. We'll choose them after we've taken them."
Xue Rui didn't continue talking. Instead, she was thinking about how to take a good picture later. After all, if two people were to take a picture together, they would need someone to help them.
Lin Leyou, "What are you thinking about?"
Xue Rui shook his head, "It's nothing, eat up."
During their meal, a few people left the restaurant and a few more came in, but Lin Leyou didn't see any familiar players or tourists.
For example, Hang Qing and Yu Peng, well, never mind, it has nothing to do with them anyway.
After they finished their meal, Xue Rui took his hand and left the restaurant, walking towards the hill, looking rather impatient.
Lin Leyou didn't want to spoil the fun and followed him briskly forward. When they got close to the hill, Xue Rui suddenly stopped. "This is a good spot."
"What's good?"
Xue Rui pointed ahead, "This is a good spot, there's no one in front of us."
Lin Leyou said, "But there are streetlights on both sides of the road, so taking photos might not look very close to nature."
Xue Rui thought for a moment, "Hmm, that's true, let's wait until we get into the mountains to talk about it."
After going up the mountain, they would find places without streetlights, paved stone paths, or steps to take photos, as this was the kind of place they liked best.
Moreover, there are some power lines on the road nearby, which definitely makes taking photos less attractive.
The two then resumed their original pace. After reaching the mountains, they didn't rush uphill. Instead, they took out their phones and snapped a few pictures here and there. In short, whenever they saw a place with decent scenery, they would find various angles, adjust their phones, and take a few good photos.
They walked and took pictures along the way, eventually going directly from the foot of the mountain to the top.
Lin Leyou breathed a sigh of relief, "It's a bit chilly on the mountaintop even during the day. It seems the temperature has indeed dropped quite a bit."
Xue Rui was about to say something when suddenly the two of them looked ahead and heard voices coming from there.
They thought there was no one on the mountaintop at this time, but they didn't expect there to be someone there. However, it's normal for there to be someone there, after all, the mountain has indeed become very beautiful after autumn arrived overnight.
But the closer they got, the more strange the sounds became; they weren't normal conversations, but rather the sounds of arguing.
Lin Leyou blinked and touched the ring. "It sounds like that player Hang Qing's voice."
Xue Rui narrowed his eyes. By this time, they had reached the observation deck and seen the situation there. There were indeed people there, and they were players.
Hang Qing, Si Meng, and Dong Nianwen, the male player who had little presence, were missing Su Tong.
The two players are arguing, and they're arguing quite fiercely.
Si Meng, "You think it's all over just because you say it has nothing to do with you? Su Tong left with you last night, so how come you're alright but she's gone?"
Hang Qing looked very impatient. "Didn't I tell you? We split up. She's gone. Don't you think I'm worried? Aren't we looking for her? We..."
As she spoke, she saw Lin Leyou and his companion standing in the distance, watching them.
Noticing Hang Qing's gaze, Si Meng turned around abruptly. Upon seeing them, she composed herself, but she still seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Let's go, this is truly shameful."
Hang Qing cursed under her breath, then turned and left, heading down the mountain. Si Meng watched her retreating figure and sneered before following her. Dong Nianwen naturally had nothing to say and followed behind them.
As they passed by Lin Leyou and his companion on Hangqing Road, one of them asked, "Excuse me, you two..."
Lin Leyou looked at her with some confusion, "What's wrong?"
Hang Qing asked with a smile, "Do you know my companion?"
Lin Leyou, "Which companion?"
Hang Qing, "It's the one who's missing, Su Tong. I've seen her many times at the restaurant before."
Lin Leyou shook his head, "We haven't seen her. Has she disappeared?"
Hang Qing sighed, "She really is missing. After we parted last night, I thought she had gone back to the cabin, but I didn't expect to not see her today. I've searched everywhere but she's not here."
Even in the small garden where she was killed yesterday, there was no body of Su Tong, not even a trace of blood. She must have been taken away by something.
Lin Leyou said, "In that case, why don't you try going to the security guards? I remember there are security cameras, maybe they can find something out."
Si Meng paused slightly, "That's right, there are also surveillance cameras!"
She was so engrossed in her player identity that she forgot about the surveillance cameras in the dungeon. "Thank you, I'll go find security now."
After thanking her, Si Meng ran off at a pretty fast speed, forcing Hang Qing and Dong Nianwen to hurry up and catch up.
After they left, Lin Leyou checked the time. "It's almost midnight. We need to find a completely safe and quiet place..."
Xue Rui looked around and then casually pointed to the rock in front of him, "How about we put it under that rock?"
Lin Leyou looked at it and saw that the stone was roughly in the middle. The stone looked quite smooth, so it was probably meant for people to sit and rest on, since there were several similar stones around it.
"Then this one will do."
Xue Rui picked up the stone; with his maxed-out physical attributes, lifting a stone was relatively easy. Lin Leyou, on the other hand, quickly dug a hole below, threw the box in, and then filled it back in with soil.
"Okay, put it down."
Xue Rui put down the stone, then looked at the monitoring equipment in his hand. The small blue light was still on, and he felt relieved. "It's done. Shall we go?"
Lin Leyou said, "Since we're all here, let's take some photos here first before going down for lunch. It's already noon, so a little longer won't make a difference."
Xue Rui thought so too, but he casually pulled a small bread roll out of his pocket. "Want some?"
Lin Leyou was stunned for a moment after seeing it, then took out an identical small bread from his pocket. "Haha, we're quite in sync. How about this, you eat mine, and I'll eat yours!"
Xue Rui naturally had no objection. After the two finished eating the bread, they casually threw the trash into a nearby trash can and took many beautiful photos on the mountaintop, just like a professional photoshoot.
It's a pity that only mobile phones can take pictures; I should have brought a camera.
When they came down the mountain and arrived at the restaurant, it was almost three o'clock. They planned to have a meal first and then pack some food to take away. They didn't plan to go anywhere else today. After eating, they would go back to the cabin.
They took thousands of photos, and it will take them a long time to select the best ones. After all, they can't print them all out, as there might not be enough room in the house in Happiness Home.
So, you can choose a maximum of five or ten cards, that should be about right.
It wasn't mealtime, and there were only the two of them in the entire restaurant, with no one else resting there. Lin Leyou's intuition told him that quite a few people must have died.
After all, the waiter who came to serve them looked very uncomfortable. When the waiter put down the last dish and was about to leave, Lin Leyou called him back.
"Wait a minute."
Waiter, is there anything I can help you with, sir?
Lin Leyou, "You don't look too well. Is something wrong? Or are you feeling unwell?"
The waiter paused for a moment, then touched his hair somewhat awkwardly. "It's nothing, it's nothing, I... I just didn't get enough rest, I'm fine!"
Lin Leyou didn't ask any more questions. "That's good. You look pale. I thought you weren't feeling well. Since you haven't rested well, go and get some rest."
The waiter nodded, "Okay, I'll go right away."
After the waiter walked to the back rest area and disappeared from sight, Lin Leyou touched the ring and spoke to Xue Rui, "Looks like quite a few people have died."
Xue Rui said, "It feels a bit quiet. I haven't seen Yu Peng and Wang Yi, this couple, for a long time."
Lin Leyou said, "The two friends who were with them also didn't see them."
Xue Rui: "Hang Qing's friend named Su Tong is probably dead too."
Lin Leyou took a bite of rice and then a bite of chicken. Although something had happened, the food at this restaurant still tasted very good; it hadn't gotten any worse because of the incident.
Xue Rui: "Should we do something about it?"
Lin Leyou shook his head, "It's okay, we don't need to. As long as trouble doesn't come looking for us, we shouldn't bother with it. If we find out about Lin Wanyi's secrets, there will be trouble."
Xue Rui: "Okay."
As the meal was nearing its end, Lin Leyou ordered several more braised dishes and roasted meats, along with some fruit, asking the waiter to pack them up so they could take them with them when they left.
Waiter: "Okay."
As they were leaving the restaurant, they happened to see someone who looked familiar.
I just mentioned that I didn't see Yu Peng and the others, but I saw them as soon as I left the restaurant, and Yu Peng looked much more normal now!
He and Wang Yi walked toward the restaurant, chatting and laughing, presumably there for dinner, which was indeed the perfect time for dinner.
Behind them were Yang Dong and Feng Xiuling. It was rare to see all four of them together.
Xue Rui, "Take care."
Lin Leyou snapped out of his daze. "Let's go."
The two turned and walked towards the hill. Just then, Yu Peng saw them. He paused for a moment, then called out to their backs, "Hey! Wait a minute!"
Lin Leyou recognized Yu Peng's voice. He didn't pay much attention at first, but then he remembered that the four of them, including Yu Peng, were outside the restaurant.
Xue Rui glanced back and said, "They're coming this way."
