Chapter 78 [(*^▽^*)]
He wasn't afraid of anyone else, but what he feared most was encountering the group of players in Shangyu Village, especially Xue Rui. While the other players in Shangyu Village might not recognize him, Xue Rui would definitely recognize him.
Even though he's wearing a mask and hat, and dressed in a security guard uniform, Xue Rui would definitely recognize him.
You have to understand that when I died in my previous life, it was almost thirty years later in terms of the present time. At that time, Xue Rui was still alive and well, and I was managing such a large group.
This shows that even though Xue Rui is still young now, he will definitely become a super big shot in the future!
no!
Lin Leyou frowned. He couldn't keep praying that he wouldn't run into Xue Rui again. He had to come up with a good excuse to fob him off before he met Xue Rui.
Ideally, Xue Rui would stop pursuing his secret.
Lin Leyou walked towards the small square while pondering. He was still a little puzzled as to why the previous group of players and this group of players were both gathered in this small square.
Could it be a mission notification from them?
When they saw Lin Leyou, dressed in a security guard uniform, approaching, their eyes were filled with vigilance. They could clearly sense that these players were qualitatively different from the previous batch.
After Lin Leyou walked over, he didn't get too close to them. He just stood to the side and didn't talk to them. Seeing him like this, the other players relaxed a lot.
Lin Leyou did not receive any notification that the mission had failed, so it seems that no player suspected his identity.
However, the task of not letting players discover that you are an NPC should not be so simple. Players should not be able to doubt or believe that you are not a player, otherwise the task will fail.
He silently called out "system" in his mind, and sure enough, the system responded.
Players must find reasonable and convincing evidence to prove that Lin Leyou is an NPC.
So that's how it is.
The system will not inform you of all the precautions in advance, but you can ask questions yourself.
I should, unless there's something special, explain it to myself.
Lin Leyou waited here for five or six minutes, and another player arrived, bringing the total to twenty-four people. However, one of them, a burly man in camouflage, was getting impatient.
He checked the time and said, "It's about time, isn't it? We're still one short, but we can't keep waiting forever. What do you guys think?"
A woman in a black long dress standing near Lin Leyou twirled her long black hair with her fingers and said in a somewhat seductive voice, "I think so too. It's getting boring to keep wasting time."
He then turned his gaze to Lin Leyou, "What do you think, handsome young man?"
Lin Leyou glanced at her. "I have a job right now, and it's during working hours. I can't stay in one place for too long."
Everyone glanced at him, then began to think about their own identities. Lin Leyou could tell at a glance that he was a security guard patrolling the community, and indeed, he couldn't stay in one place for too long.
Everyone has their own identity.
"Shouldn't the role I'm playing be subject to the rules? I'm a community cleaner, and I need to clean the community later. There are also regulations regarding my working hours... Ah... it's working hours now!"
Lin Leyou blinked. "I think it's best not to delay work. If problems arise, they might be hard to salvage."
He turned around hurriedly, "Thank you, young man. I'll be going now. I'll talk to you again when I have time. By the way, there's a break at noon. Everyone, please meet here at noon! We'll exchange clues then."
After saying that, he ran off and disappeared.
Although some people left silently, without saying what they were going to do or whether they would come back to meet at noon, only three people remained, one of whom was Lin Leyou.
Lin Leyou looked around. "If there's nothing else, I'm going on patrol. I can come back at noon."
The other two people were the man in camouflage who spoke at the beginning and a glamorous woman.
"Okay, I have something to do too, I'll be going now."
Lin Leyou followed them away, leaving only one woman standing there watching their retreating figures. Once they were out of sight, she let out a soft snort, "Honestly, how come they're all such lousy men who don't know how to cherish women?"
Lin Leyou ignored the woman and walked while thinking about this group of players. They did seem much stronger than the previous group, but in reality, it depended on their ability to act.
Let's wait at least one more day. If these players can't even survive one day, then I won't be able to cooperate with them. I hope that a few more capable players can survive.
He followed the route from yesterday and arrived near Building 2. He actually saw the aunt he had met before. After asking her some questions, the aunt said the same thing as before.
After watching the woman leave, Lin Leyou slowly walked into Unit 3. The couple, Fu Lin and Wu Zhen, lived in Room 302 on the third floor.
If I remember correctly, Wu Zhen, the wife, is still at home, while her husband, Fu Lin, has gone to work. Is it really okay for him to leave the neighborhood to go to work?
He would go ask the security captain later, and if possible, he might be able to go out and try it out himself.
Lin Leyou arrived at room 302 on the third floor, stared at it for a while, and then knocked on the door.
"Who is it?!" A woman's voice came from inside; it was unfamiliar, and I had never heard it before.
"Hello, Ms. Wu, I'm a security guard."
Wu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief when she saw through the peephole that it was indeed a security guard. She opened the door halfway but did not invite Lin Leyou in, appearing very wary.
"Is there something you need?"
Lin Leyou: "Hello, I'd like to ask about what happened last night. The noise was a bit loud, and the other residents in the community were a little scared."
When this was mentioned, Wu Zhen seemed a little embarrassed. "Well... it's nothing serious. I just had a little argument with my husband."
"I understand. I'll be more careful in the future. Tell them not to worry, it's really nothing serious."
Lin Leyou nodded, "That's good. After all, we all live in the same community, so let's all be considerate of each other. If there's any problem, we can contact the security office, and we'll come over as soon as possible."
Wu Zhen sighed, looking somewhat dejected. "I understand... I'm sorry for bothering everyone. I... I'll be more careful in the future."
I don't know if she meant she would be careful not to get beaten up, or that she would be careful not to disturb others.
Lin Leyou said, "There's nothing else. You get some rest. I'll be going now."
Wu Zhen nodded. "Take care."
Lin Leyou watched Wu Zhen close the door, somewhat puzzled. There seemed to be nothing wrong with Wu Zhen. The house was registered with the property management as belonging to two people, a husband and wife.
Although Wu Zhen was wearing glasses to cover the injuries on her face, it was still clear that she looked the same as in the photo. He hadn't met her husband, Fu Lin, yet; he would verify it once he saw him in person.
He then wandered around downstairs for a while, and soon he heard sounds coming from the lakeside. Good, Liu Liu was still there, nothing had changed.
It seemed that he would likely gain something this time. He slowly walked to the lakeside and saw Liu Liu huddled in a chair, crying sadly.
He walked over. "Little one?"
The child, who was huddled in the chair, looked up at Lin Leyou and said naturally, "Hello, brother."
Lin Leyou asked, "Who are you? What's your name? Why are you here all alone?"
"Brother... I... I am called Liu Liu, and I live here."
Lin Leyou extended his hand, "Let's go, Liu Liu. It's dangerous for a child to come to the lake alone. I'll take you home."
Liu Liu shook her head. "I don't want to go home."
Lin Leyou, "What happened?"
Liu Liu hesitated before saying, "Because there's a teacher in my family, a teacher my mom found for me. I don't like her, she's very fierce and not nice to me."
Lin Leyou: "Then you can tell your mother."
Liu Liu looked aggrieved. "I told her, but my mom didn't believe me. She said I lied and framed the teacher because I didn't want to study, and she made me apologize to the teacher."
Lin Leyou said, "Let's go then. I'll take you home and tell your mother about it. If an adult tells you, your mother will definitely believe it."
Liu Liu was probably persuaded by him and quickly agreed to go home, but Lin Leyou felt that something was wrong.
The child's gaze didn't reveal the same unfamiliarity as when they first met in the last instance, so... this child recognizes me now.
So the question is, why does this child know himself?
The female ghost from last night acted the same way and ultimately died at her own hands, but things seemed a bit strange with Liu Liu.
He wasn't sure yet; maybe it was just his imagination. He decided to go to Liu Liu's house first and see for himself. He would be able to confirm it soon.
Room 101, Unit 5, Building 3. Just like before, Lin Leyou went up to knock on the door again.
The door opened quickly, and Lin Leyou's pupils contracted slightly when he saw who opened it. This time, it wasn't the female ghost teacher who opened the door, but Zhou Keke herself!
Zhou Keke was taken aback when she saw Lin Leyou. "Hello, you're a security guard, right? And this is... um? Liu Liu! What's going on? What happened?"
Lin Leyou asked, "Ms. Zhou, is this child yours?"
Zhou Keke nodded, "Yes, this is my child. What happened?"
Lin Leyou said, "It's nothing. I saw the child alone by the lake while I was patrolling outside. I felt it was a bit dangerous, so I brought him back."
Zhou Keke breathed a sigh of relief. "Really? Thank you so much. This child is always disobedient. This time he actually sneaked out to the lakeside by himself. It was really dangerous. I will discipline him properly."
Lin Leyou blinked. "Okay, that's good."
He turned his gaze toward Liu Liu and found that he was looking down and not reacting at all.
Zhou Keke held Liu Liu's little hand, looked outside, and said with a slightly embarrassed smile, "Well, it's not very nice to stand outside. Would you like to come in and sit down?"
