Chapter 644 [(*^▽^*)]
When Lin Leyou heard him say those two words, he couldn't help but smile. Normally, Qiu Baiyu would definitely have noticed, but at this moment she was too anxious to care about that.
"Oh, right, young man, this is the last item. I can take it in myself, so I won't trouble you."
Lin Leyou exclaimed, "Oh dear, that won't do! Let me do it!"
He reached into the trunk and took the only thing in it, then slammed the trunk shut. "Come on, Auntie, let's go in together. I need to talk to my husband about something."
Qiu Baiyu didn't think about anything else. Hearing him say that, she nodded directly, "Okay, let's go."
As it turned out, Xue Rui came out of the building just as they reached the entrance, and that's how they bumped into each other. So, should they go in now, or what?
Xue Rui took his hand. "What's wrong?"
Lin Leyou shook the item in her hand, "I saw that this was the only one left, so I just brought it in for her."
Xue Rui took the thing from his hand. "Go wait for me on that chair over there. I'll come find you right away."
Lin Leyou nodded, "Okay, then hurry up and come over."
After saying that, he didn't even look at Qiu Baiyu, turned around and walked to the spot where he and Xue Rui had been sitting. Xue Rui, holding the things, looked at Qiu Baiyu and said, "Come in, I've put everything in for you."
Qiu Baiyu stared blankly at Lin Leyou as he walked away, wondering what to do now. Was there still a chance?
She suddenly said, "When we get upstairs, we'll have to take the things out of the elevator."
Xue Rui said, "You can take it out yourself. I'm taking him out to eat soon, and he can't go hungry. Or you can ask a neighbor."
Qiu Baiyu then realized that it was lunchtime and they would definitely go to eat. In that case, she didn't need to do anything else and could just wait.
"Oh, I'm sorry, you go ahead, I'll ask my neighbor for help later."
Xue Rui put his things away without saying anything, left the building, and came to Lin Leyou's side. The two sat there and continued to browse their phones. Just a short while later, some forums and online communities had seen more real-time events being shared, and some people were even filming the deaths of violators and posting them online.
They use this to show off their achievements, but these videos are often automatically deleted within half a minute. Some lucky people can see them, while others can't.
Actually, it should have been possible to delete it directly, but I left them half a minute to see it, probably to incite their hunting desire.
Lin Leyou looked up into the distance. This area was the territory of the woman in red. They had been here all morning and had seen this woman pass by them no less than ten times, each time dragging one or two corpses. There must have been more in places where they couldn't see.
Lin Leyou said, "To be honest, today is the fifth day, and the population density of the whole city seems to be less than when we first arrived."
Xue Rui: "The daily death toll of NPCs is estimated to be no less than 100,000. All the red-clad men are very busy."
Lin Leyou said, "There are fewer and fewer people. How many people will still be staying in the building we found before the deadline? If we're going to play, we have to play big."
Xue Rui: "Aren't there combat puppets? Humanoid ones... We can release them and let them set them up..."
The two appeared to be scrolling through their phones, but they were actually secretly discussing other plans. Of course, Lin Leyou didn't forget to keep tracking Jiang Changdong's location using a GPS.
Jiang Changdong hasn't shown any signs of moving since then, and given that Qiu Baiyu just came looking for them, he's probably hiding somewhere in the building, or even in some corner outside.
They just couldn't detect that the other party was using a prop; let's see how long he can hold out.
Lin Leyou took out a few hard-boiled eggs from his pocket. "Want some? It's time to eat now."
Xue Rui was taken aback. "When did you prepare this?"
Lin Leyou: "It was in my backpack, something I prepared at home."
The home he's referring to isn't the home in the game instance, but rather the home in the Happiness Community. Just in case, he prepared hundreds of hard-boiled eggs and put them all in his backpack.
It's convenient and time-saving to eat, and it's very filling. When there's nothing to eat in the dungeon, these boiled eggs are a lifesaver. It doesn't matter if he takes out a few now, and he can make more after the dungeon ends.
Moreover, this was the only food in his backpack that he could be certain had no salt added.
After eating a few boiled eggs and drinking some water, the two continued to sit there leisurely scrolling through their phones. As time went by, they watched as the elderly men playing chess in the distance left to go back for lunch, leaving only the two of them still in their original positions.
Qiu Baiyu was sitting in one of the houses upstairs, occasionally peeking out the window to see when they would leave.
But to my surprise, Xue Rui said he was leaving, but he hasn't left yet. It's almost 2 p.m., when are we going to have lunch?
Just as Qiu Baiyu was getting anxious, the two finally got up and slowly left. She breathed a sigh of relief. Some surveillance equipment followed them away and only sat down after confirming that they had really left.
In less than a minute, Jiang Changdong appeared on the balcony. He pushed open the balcony door and walked into the living room. "What are your thoughts?"
Qiu Baiyu: "What could I possibly think? You must have slipped up and they caught you with a clue. Otherwise, how could they have found you so accurately and come here to stake you out?"
Jiang Changdong sat on the sofa in deep thought. What Qiu Baiyu said actually made sense. It was just that he had accidentally revealed his whereabouts and was caught by the two of them. After all, who doesn't have some kind of surveillance equipment these days?
When I was active in this neighborhood, I must have been caught on camera by surveillance cameras that Xue Rui left at home or in the vicinity, which is why I came here to stake out the place.
"I thought he would take all the surveillance equipment with him when he left, I didn't expect him to come back."
Qiu Baiyu: "We'd be worried if they stayed here tonight. After all, aren't you going out after midnight? If they stay here, are you still going?"
Jiang Changdong took a deep breath. "Yes, we must go. We have to ensure that the number of surviving participants is reduced to the minimum before the last day arrives!"
Lin Leyou and Xue Rui didn't go far. Instead, they found a nearby public restroom, went inside, and made sure no one was there before releasing all of their combat puppets.
Of course, they also equipped the two combat golems with a lot of gear before leaving the public restroom.
About ten minutes after they left, a few more people came to the public toilet, and the two combat puppets left separately, still being remotely controlled by the two of them.
They returned to their previous positions and continued scrolling through their phones. In reality, they were secretly controlling their combat puppets to run around, and sometimes they would even exchange messages with each other.
From a distance, they looked as if they were exchanging news they had seen on their phones.
During this time, Lin Leyou repeatedly located Jiang Changdong's position and found that Jiang Changdong's location had changed. However, these changes were basically all inside the building. It seems that when they left earlier, the other party returned to the interior, which means that he really was hiding outside just now.
The only regret was that the mechanical spiders hiding near the chairs before they left didn't find Jiang Changdong, but it didn't matter, as long as they knew he lived in this apartment building.
Time passed slowly, and it was getting dark.
Lin Leyou and his friend went grocery shopping and bought some new seasonings, just to prevent Xue Rui's family from tampering with their seasonings.
They've decided to stay at Xue Rui's house tonight, since Jiang Changdong and his wife are there, along with other special NPCs they've gathered. They might not be here, but they'll definitely come here.
Or rather, Jiang Changdong will go to see them, since they have very important things to do.
Xue Rui opened the door, and the two entered the room. It was still quite clean, since they hadn't been gone for long. They tidied up briefly and then carefully checked the place.
Only then did I enter the kitchen to cook, replacing all the seasonings with new ones and even throwing away the containers.
When the two of them cook together, Lin Leyou always tracks Jiang Changdong's location to prevent him from sneaking away. If he goes out, they will definitely follow him.
But even after they finished cooking and eating, Jiang Changdong's location still showed an overlap with his own; he was still in that residential building.
After finishing their meal and cleaning up, Lin Leyou was about to release the mechanical spiders, but Xue Rui stopped him, saying, "No need for mechanical spiders, just release my monitoring ball. It's all under surveillance."
It's not suitable during the day because the surveillance camera is easy to spot as it flies around, but it's fine at night because it's dark outside and the camera can fly around freely.
Lin Leyou nodded, "Okay, then I'll use your monitoring ball."
After all, the monitoring effect is the same, and if the mechanical spider is damaged or broken, it's really gone, unlike the monitoring ball, which can be repaired again in this box after being damaged.
After washing up in the bathroom, the two lay on the bed to rest, waiting for Jiang Changdong to make his move.
However, perhaps because Jiang Changdong knew they were staying here, Lin Leyou didn't notice Jiang Changdong leaving the apartment building until midnight!
And so, as they continued their covert competition, the sixth day arrived.
"System notification: At midnight on the sixth day, there are 21 participants remaining."
After receiving the notification, Lin Leyou and Xue Rui both felt that it was indeed the end, and even players would be difficult to kill. Anyone who could survive to the sixth day must be a top-notch player.
Of course, this applies if the other party is a player.
