Chapter 94 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou silently watched Qin Jiao. This woman clearly said she was very worried about Yao Mo and even offered to go out with him to find Yao Mo, but while he was still on the second floor, she returned to the third floor after checking the first floor.
They showed no intention whatsoever of coming upstairs to find him and search for Yao Mo together.
Qin Jiao, despite being stared at like that, showed no sign of guilt. Instead, she exuded charm, as if she had already emerged from the shadows of the past.
Lin Leyou shook his head, "We haven't finished searching yet."
Lian Yushan said sarcastically, "Heh! It's just the second floor, one floor. In this long time, you could have searched it ten times, let alone once."
Lin Leyou retorted, "If that's the case, then go find it yourself."
Lian Yushan was momentarily speechless. "You..."
Tang Zhengchu said, "Alright, Yushan, don't get excited. Have you forgotten that your head hurts? It's only just gotten a little better. If you get so excited, it'll hurt again."
Lian Yushan quickly rubbed his temples, "Ouch, that hurts, it hurts now."
Lin Leyou didn't bother with their banter and casually sat on the other sofa, as if Yao Mo's matter didn't exist.
Watching them talk, Tang Zhengchu asked with some confusion, "What's wrong? Aren't you going to find Yao Mo?"
Lin Leyou shrugged. "I'm in a business relationship with you guys. I don't know Yao Mo at all. Even the person I know best isn't in a hurry, so why should I be?"
"In the end, it's you who will suffer the loss, not me."
If they don't get four item cards, they won't get anything, and all their previous efforts will have been in vain. So they should be the ones who are worried, not us.
The three of them understood this, of course.
Lian Yushan and Tang Zhengchu's eyes fell on Qin Jiao.
Qin Jiao looked very relaxed, not in a hurry at all. She casually tossed her long hair behind her back and said, "Okay, okay, don't do that. I know, alright?"
"Let's go, Brother Lin, let's go upstairs and take a look." She chuckled twice. "I knew you wanted to be alone with me. Let's just say it directly, we're both adults..."
Lin Leyou ignored her completely, got up and led Qin Jiao upstairs.
Back on the second floor, the bloody footprints on the floor and the bloody handprints on the door were still very obvious.
Qin Jiao's expression changed slightly when she saw these, but she quickly calmed down. "Brother Lin, shall we go in and take a look at 202 now?"
Lin Leyou: "I do have that plan, but you don't seem to care much about Yao Mo's disappearance. Are you tired of him?"
Qin Jiao waved her hand, "How could that be? I am indeed quite familiar with him, but that's only because we've cooperated a few times in dungeons. In the real world, we're just acquaintances."
Lin Leyou: "Really?"
Qin Jiao: "Yes, I have no other relationship with him."
Lin Leyou guessed that Yao Mo might really be inside, but...
When he first arrived, he first searched the rooftop from the first floor, and then searched down from the rooftop until he found them on the third floor.
When I first arrived, there were no bloody footprints or handprints on the second floor. These things only appeared after I had checked the second floor.
So at that time, were Qin Jiao and the others in room 202 on the second floor, and did they move from the second floor to the third floor while I was going upstairs?
Could Yao Mo have died here?
I hope he doesn't die.
hey-hey
At least leave a breath behind!
This way, if he kills Yao Mo, he can earn some points and money.
Qin Jiao stood at the door, looking at the bloody handprint on the door again and again. "Brother Lin, please open the door?"
Lin Leyou walked to the door and was about to open it when a sudden thought flashed through his mind. He then realized that the size of the bloody handprint did not seem to match Yao Mo's.
Yao Mo is over 1.8 meters tall, with a strong build and large hands, but the bloody handprint on the door looks a bit small. He subconsciously stretched out his own hand to compare.
Only then did I realize that the bloody handprint was slightly smaller than my own hand.
He was already certain that the bloody handprint was not Yao Mo's, so by the same logic, the bloody footprints on the ground were most likely not left by Yao Mo either.
So what's the deal with all this stuff?
When Lin Leyou came to his senses, Qin Jiao had already taken several steps back, creating some distance between them, and in her hand was the whip he had used in the stairwell before.
Lin Leyou turned to look at her, "Qin Jiao, what are you doing? Are you trying to tear up our cooperation?"
Are all the previous contracts unimportant now? Or is it...?
Qin Jiao lightly flicked the whip in her hand, the whip whirling in a beautiful arc before landing on the ground with a snap. If a man who liked the queenly, mature woman type were here, he might very well fall at her feet.
"Oh dear, I didn't want to either, but I had no choice, since you've already found out..."
"I didn't expect Brother Lin to be so smart. Why doesn't he want to be with me? If that's the case, I can stand on your side! But..."
She didn't finish her sentence, but Lin Leyou roughly knew what she wanted to say. It seemed that this was all an act, just to trick him into falling into their trap.
As for the purpose?
What else could it be for?
It can only be the props I have. Since that's the case...
Before he could speak, Qin Jiao lashed out with her whip. Lin Leyou stood still, letting the whip fall on his body.
The result was somewhat unexpected, no, it was only unexpected for Qin Jiao, because... she found that although the whip struck Lin Leyou, she didn't feel much of a real impact.
"not good!"
Just as Qin Jiao was about to retract her whip, Lin Leyou reached out and grabbed it. Qin Jiao realized the danger and tried to let go, but it was too late.
Lin Leyou suddenly pulled the whip towards himself, and Qin Jiao, caught off guard, actually slammed towards Lin Leyou.
Lin Leyou stepped forward and swung the stun gun in his hand, striking Qin Jiao directly on the neck. The blow was real; Qin Jiao didn't even have time to react before collapsing to the ground unconscious.
He had no intention of showing any pity for Qin Jiao, nor of delaying the inevitable, nor of taking Qin Jiao to Tang Zhengchu and Lian Yushan to demand an explanation.
With a cold face, he pulled a sharp knife from his backpack, stepped forward, and slashed her neck hard.
"Congratulations to Lin Leyou for killing a player. You have earned 20 points and 100,000 gold coins."
Lin Leyou was furious. Qin Jiao's neck had been cut in half, and blood was gushing out like crazy, with a strong smell of blood hitting the air.
Lin Leyou seemed oblivious to the corpses and the blood, and strode away from the scene.
He left Qin Jiao's body where he was, while Lin Leyou returned to the third floor alone. However, he was too late and did not find Lian Yushan and Tang Zhengchu up there.
Those two have already left, they ran so fast! I wonder if they sensed what was happening with Lin Leyou beforehand, which is why they left early.
Lin Leyou didn't stay there any longer. Since they had already left, they certainly wouldn't continue hiding in this building. He would look for them elsewhere; perhaps he could find them in another place.
As for Yao Mo, who was never found...
Yao Mo and Qin Jiao were in cahoots. They probably didn't expect that he would kill Qin Jiao so swiftly. They thought he would give Qin Jiao a chance to explain, or take Qin Jiao to them to demand an explanation or negotiate, so that they could buy time to rescue her or use the props.
Unfortunately, he wasn't a serious player and didn't need to actually cooperate with players.
Since you've betrayed him, be prepared to be killed.
At this point, Lin Leyou finally understood why he felt something was off about the contract. It only stated how to cooperate and how to distribute the obtained items.
However, no restrictions were written, such as not attacking or harming each other during the cooperation. Once bitten, twice shy; these people just wanted to lower their guard and then kill them.
They are not themselves, and killing players doesn't bring any rewards... Does this mean that players can get something by killing each other?
Or do they possess items that allow them to loot items from other players' corpses?
Just as he was about to leave the building, he remembered that he had left Qin Jiao's weapon, the whip, on the second floor. Should he go up and check it now?
Since it wouldn't take up much time, Lin Leyou finally decided to go and take a look.
Upon returning to the second floor, Lin Leyou indeed saw the whip he had tossed aside earlier, now stained with Qin Jiao's blood.
However, he didn't mind at all and squatted down to pick up the whip.
"Congratulations to Lin Leyou for obtaining the blue-grade weapon Thorn Whip! It's covered in barbs, and if you get hit, you'll bleed profusely."
It causes continuous bleeding, which isn't very powerful, but he could tell that Qin Jiao really liked the whip.
Unfortunately, it's already mine now.
Lin Leyou happily put the whip into his backpack before preparing to leave.
Since the cooperation has already fallen through, can he just use the card in his backpack?
Click to use.
"Congratulations to Lin Leyou for obtaining the green item Skull Mask. Wearing the Skull Mask will transform you into a skeleton ghost. The duration of each use is unlimited, and the cooldown time is 3 days."
Lin Leyou was stunned when he saw the prop.
Wow...this is really good stuff!
With this, wouldn't it be incredibly awesome to play as a monster-type NPC in other instances? No need to worry about people knowing what I look like anymore?
That's exactly what he's lacking right now! He's incredibly lucky!
However, it's no wonder this thing is green-tier; it only changes appearance and has no other effects. The strength remains the same.
But it doesn't matter, as long as he finds it useful, he can keep it safe!
He then patted his face to completely hide his joy before leaving the building. He didn't see any familiar faces outside; he ran very fast.
