Ju Jingbai carefully recalled the details of when she first came. It turned out that not only the second male lead suddenly showed an expression of surprise, but when he went back to show off, the people around him also looked at her with longing.
Has the owner of the illusion brought in all the ghosts in the school?
No wonder the school was so quiet these days. She hadn't encountered a single ghost. She originally thought the ghosts were scared away by the talismans she had pasted on the door, but she didn't expect that they were captured and forced to do hard labor.
Ju Jingbai heard the two girls outside leave, walked out of the toilet cubicle, walked out of the toilet quickly, greeted the crew with a stiff face, picked up a few props, and walked towards the room with the big gold chain.
What kind of ghost is the one that scares even ghosts?
Ju Jingbai was extremely uneasy because he didn't have any talismans at hand.
"Knock knock." Ju Jingbai knocked on Gao Shang's door.
"Who is it?" Gao Shang asked.
"It's me, Gao Yuexi." Ju Jingbai said. She took a quick look after entering the room. The small standard room was crowded with people. All the task participants had gathered in this room.
Ju Jingbai counted and there were eleven people in total.
"What did you ask? He won't speak?" Ju Jingbai asked directly. As she spoke, she walked to the side of the man in black and kicked him lightly, causing the man in black to bare his teeth and reveal an extremely terrifying expression. His handsome face was distorted like a ghost.
I know that this person is most likely an evil ghost in human skin.
Ju Jingbai didn't feel scared, because there was only a layer of human skin between them.
"He didn't say a word."
Ju Jingbai's previous performance on the set stunned the group of taskers. As soon as she entered the room, the discussion in the room subsided and gradually faded away.
When she asked, someone else responded, "She's being very stubborn. We've decided to let Bai Yue kill the person directly."
"Won't the police come here?" asked Ju Jingbai.
"The police are slow to arrive, so we'll help Bai Yue kill him half to death, and then Bai Yue will deliver the final blow." Screenwriter Xie Lin explained, "Or Bai Yue will strangle the man himself. Only when he dies can the next stage of the mission begin."
"Gao Shang, hasn't the man in the white coat come over yet?" Ju Jingbai looked at the big gold chain.
Gao Shang said fiercely: "I was the one who called that guy, but I didn't expect that he didn't come twice."
"Do you think this mission is a little different?" Ju Jingbai naturally took the lead in this small gathering. She needed to confirm some things.
"Some things are definitely different. I used to give it time to find clues, but this is the first time the first NPC has appeared so quickly. Furthermore, I haven't found any clues of my own this time."
"Yes, it's too fast. I used to prefer to reason and search."
"I don't even know who the NPC I'm going to fight is. It's not normal. Besides, this is our second gathering, and it's even more abnormal that we can't gather everyone." The taskers were discussing.
Ju Jingbai smiled and said frankly: "I suspect that the changes in this mission are because of me. I have some connections with those guys outside."
The taskers: "..." That's more than just an act of friendship.
"The master of the illusion should have some way to know our situation." Ju Jingbai said.
"So, what should we do? You have those guys outside protecting us, so are we just going to wait for death? It will be difficult to replicate a lucky situation like Bai Yue's next time." Someone shouted.
"Wait, the illusion you just mentioned, is it the kind you see in novels?" Xie Lin asked calmly, "Then is there a way for us to get out without completing the mission?"
"Well, this time I'll say it again. If I want to take you out directly, no one will laugh at me." Ju Jingbai looked at Gao Shang, and the taskers around him also looked at Gao Shang.
Gao Shang gritted his teeth and said, "If you can take me out, I will definitely keep my promise. If you can take us out, I will kneel down and call you grandpa, in front of everyone."
"...There's no need to be so resolute." Ju Jingbai thought about it, and the scene of a burly man kneeling down and calling him grandpa, suddenly made him feel goose bumps all over his body.
"Since you all recognize me, let's get to know each other again. I am a non-staff member of the Special Investigation Department of Hai City Public Security Bureau. I have passed the police certificate exam. My main responsibility is to cooperate with the police station to investigate these supernatural events. I have teammates outside the illusion." Ju Jingbai said, slowly scanning everyone's face, and uneasiness and peace of mind were displayed on the faces of this crowd.
The room fell silent for a moment.
"I...Comrade police officer, I killed someone here. I won't be caught, right?" Bai Yue's face was gloomy.
Ju Jingbai comforted him: "Of course not, but everyone needs to receive psychological treatment when they go out. If you stay in this kind of environment for a long time, a normal person will be driven crazy."
"That's good, that's good, I will cooperate with you."
Everyone's expressions relaxed.
Ju Jingbai smiled and said, "Don't worry, there are rules in the illusion. The owner of this illusion shouldn't be able to kill us directly, otherwise there would be no need to go to such great lengths to do this, so there's no need to be too scared.
Besides, now that I'm standing here telling you this, the Master of the Illusion has probably heard it clearly, and he's probably going to speed up the process again."
Ding Dong, Ding Dong, Buzz~
As soon as Ju Jingbai finished speaking, everyone's cell phones rang.
Ju Jingbai took out her phone and saw a message from someone named Yang Pingxi: "After so many years, you've been doing so well, while I'm broke. Shouldn't we meet?" "Come meet my ex-girlfriend. I'll be in the cafe next to your hotel at nine o'clock in the evening, alone."
"NPC sent me a text message, asking me to go to the school library at 9 o'clock in the evening."
"Mine is in the school cafeteria, and it's also at nine in the evening."
As if to respond to her words, the owner of the illusion sent a challenge letter to everyone except Bai Yue. For a moment, everyone looked at Ju Jingbai.
Gao Shang didn't have time to get angry with Ju Jingbai, he said in horror: "Damn it, I remember this situation.
The man in the white coat told me that he had a scene before where the NPC sent a message to all the taskers at the same time.
He didn't dare tell me the details of the mission, but his expression was so terrifying that it still leaves a deep impression on me.
He said that it was the fastest and most brutal crushing he had ever carried out. The NPCs unleashed force like monsters, and humans were running for their lives like ants. They had no choice but to escape.
He was lucky, as he managed to kill his quest NPC before it exploded.
He said that in such a situation, you must do your best to strike first, otherwise you will die."
Ju Jingbai lowered his head to think, but the tasker next to him couldn't stand it. In addition, the man in black smiled strangely when he heard Gao Shang's description, and made some "grunting" sounds that were not like human.
Following this creepy voice, the faces of all the taskers in the room stiffened, their eyes filled with fear, and their expressions gradually became numb and crazy. However, Bai Yue was different from the others and showed a hint of joy.
It was in this situation that Ju Jingbai smiled and laughed out loud.
Are you crazy? Gao Shang and the other taskers couldn't help but steal glances at her.
Ju Jingbai tried hard to suppress her smile, walked towards the man in black, and did what she had always been afraid to do. She kicked the man in black in the thigh, kicking the evil ghost openly. It felt so good, right? "It's you scum, ruining other people's reputations. Be careful of being struck by lightning for working for bad people, and now you're snitching on me, bah!!"
The black-clad man's expression instantly twisted, but because his hands were tied he couldn't even lift his thighs. His arrogant smile turned into a gasp, and he couldn't help but shrink back when he saw Ju Jingbai trying to come over again.
"Snitch?" The taskers were filled with dark clouds in their hearts, but this kick brought a ray of light into their hearts.
"Yes, if it's not a snitch, how can the master of the illusion know about our conversation? I said that the master of the illusion can know our general situation, but it is absolutely impossible for him to know my provocation at the first time. The rules will not allow it." Ju Jingbai explained.
"I've experienced several illusions before, and each one has its own unique algorithm for breaking them. The illusion we're in is no exception. However, it has openly shared the algorithm with you, maximizing its bias in your favor. If it even knew our conversation, it would destroy the integrity of the illusion."
Seeing that the group of people seemed to understand, Ju Jingbai smiled innocently: "Besides, even if their strength increases, what can we do? There are so many of us. One person can't break a leg with one kick. What about two people? What about ten people?"
"But the text message said that I have to go alone," someone asked.
"If it says you're alone, then you're alone. You've already killed people, so why are you still so obedient?"
Ju Jingbai thought of the group of non-human dancing ghosts, and was inexplicably confident that they would be her strongest helpers in the illusion. She smiled again.
Yes, if the master of the illusion says it is a person, then it is a person.
If a ghost wears human skin, is it still a ghost?
