The few of them walked in the dark fog for a long time, and finally Ruan Jiyan brought the two girls to the door of grandma's house.
Ruan Jiyan stopped in front of the door and did not move.
After waiting for a long time, Zhang Jing looked down at the mission countdown on her wrist. There were still thirty-seven minutes left, but Ruan Jiyan hadn't knocked on the door.
She was a little anxious, struggling to speak. In the end, Li Mingyue asked Ruan Jiyan before her, "We are already at the door, why don't we go in?"
Ruan Jiyan chuckled and said, "Don't worry, wait until everyone is gathered."
Her expression of being in control made Li Mingyue and Zhang Jing both confused: "Who else?"
Ruan Jiyan's eyes were shining in the dark mist, and two girls looked in her direction. They were You Jie and Chen Xin, whose face was colorful.
When You Jie saw them, a faint smile instantly appeared on his gloomy face. He said to the three girls, "Did you encounter any danger along the way?"
Zhang Jing hugged Li Mingyue's arm, and Li Mingyue patted it soothingly, then replied to You Jie: "Fortunately, we didn't encounter any difficulties along the way."
He smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Ruan Jiyan and said slowly: "Thank you, you are willing to wait for us."
Ruan Jiyan looked at him, suddenly sneered, and then glanced at Chen Xin who was still standing a few meters away.
Chen Xin no longer seemed to be unconvinced, and one almost began to doubt whether he was still angry.
His face was pale, his eyes were empty, and he looked like a puppet. If he hadn't been walking upright, Ruan Jiyan would have really thought he was dead.
Ruan Jiyan took the bamboo basket, took two steps forward and knocked on the door, but there was no response.
But time is running out, only fourteen minutes left.
You Jie followed and knocked twice quickly, but there was still no response.
Several people suddenly became nervous.
"There shouldn't be any bugs here, right? Then how are we going to complete the mission?" Zhang Jing asked with a trembling voice, somewhat uncertain.
Ruan Jiyan turned to look at her, and then gave her a puzzled look. Finally, You Jie answered her: "No, this is a forced offline. I haven't heard of such a bug yet."
After hearing what he said, Zhang Jing's face, which was about to cry, slowly began to calm down.
You Jie took two steps toward the door, looked around, and was about to touch the window when the door creaked open.
The person who came out to greet people was a hunched old lady with a kind face. She had her head wrapped in a scarf and her gray hair was vaguely visible.
As soon as the door opened, Ruan Ji Yan was facing her. Ruan Ji Yan was startled by the sudden movement and was stunned for a moment. Then he watched her raise her old hands with sagging skin and prominent blood vessels and grab his arm.
"Little Red Riding Hood is here!" Her eyesight was not very good, and when she heard the knock on the door, she opened it thinking it was Little Red Riding Hood. But in the end, she realized that there were quite a lot of people standing outside the door, and when she looked around, it seemed that her granddaughter was nowhere to be seen.
Ruan Jiyan didn't move, his eyes were fixed on her hand that was like a dead tree on his arm, and finally he just helped her into the house.
Although Ruan Jiyan was holding something, he just stared at Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother without saying anything.
Yin An, who had always had a low presence in the team, finally came out and said, "Hello, grandma. This is a gift that Little Red Riding Hood asked us to bring you. She... couldn't come because of something, so... we had to bring it to you."
If he didn't speak, Ruan Jiyan would almost forget that there was such a person in the team.
He rarely spoke at the beginning, and after taking on the role of Little Red Riding Hood, he became like an invisible man.
When Ruan Jiyan chose to leave after deliberately quarreling with Chen Xin, although he followed Li Mingyue and Zhang Jing to her side, he always kept a distance from them in black clothes, and he was almost drowned in the endless darkness.
In this case, it would be strange if Ruan Jiyan would pay attention to him again.
Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother looked at the boy who had spoken, and her wrinkled face wrinkled even more after she smiled. "Okay, thank you in advance. You must be tired, sit down and have a good rest. I'll make you something delicious."
After saying that, she led a few people to the dining table. After seeing the table, the smiles on their faces were suddenly replaced by obvious fear.
This dining table looks exactly like the one in the Werewolf Castle and the one in Little Red Riding Hood's house.
There are a few more plates of turkey at Little Red Riding Hood's house, and there are a few more cups here.
The plot keeps moving forward, but it seems like something has stopped.
Did they fall into a trap, or were they just overthinking?
Ruan Jiyan placed the basket of cake and wine on the table and sat down as if nothing had happened.
Throughout all this, Li Mingyue and the others had developed some ridiculous and inappropriate dependence and trust in this level 3 newbie. Even though they couldn't rule out the possibility that she was a werewolf, they still followed her subconsciously.
Several people sat together at the dining table, looking at each other, and remaining silent in tacit understanding.
Inside the house, the only sounds were the busy footsteps of Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother and the clinking of knives and forks.
After the mission time returned to zero, the four red words "Mission Completed" appeared in the middle of the dining table, and they finally felt relieved.
To be honest, after walking for such a long time and causing such a commotion at the beginning, we are all very hungry and now all we want is to have a good meal.
After leaving Little Red Riding Hood's house, You Jie became much quieter. I don't know why, but he, who was always a little aloof in the beginning, now follows Ruan Ji Yan tacitly.
Several people sat in silence, but the room was bustling with activity.
[Is that newbie really just a newbie?]
[Alas, he is just a pretentious guy. He looks so arrogant, but I am afraid he is not very strong.]
[One more on the top floor, as fierce as a tiger, showing off his strength 2.5.]
There are still people in the cloud broadcast room who look down on Ruan Jiyan, thinking that she is just pretending because she got a bit of luck.
Some people also said that You Jie was scared and started to be led by her like the other idiots.
In the end, You Jie couldn't stand Ruan Jiyan's aloof look and You Jie's submissive look, so he chose to leave the room.
The popularity of You Jie's online broadcast room dropped several places at once, and he fell directly off the strength list. There are only a few people left in the online broadcast room.
He just frowned, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Then, Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother brought the food up. The people who had been waiting for a long time were somewhat happy to see the grandmother coming. But in the end, what was served on the table was a bunch of black things.
Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother smiled apologetically and said, "I apologize to everyone. I am old and my eyes are not very useful."
Looking at the different expressions on everyone's faces, she smiled and took the cake out of the basket, ready to share it with everyone.
Ruan Jiyan suddenly stood up, and her clean white skirt was lifted up.
She walked straight to the kitchen, took a long, sharp knife from the knife rack, and then walked towards the few people with cold eyes.
For a moment, several people were frightened by her aura and subconsciously thought that she had blew herself up as a werewolf.
Then, she was seen holding a knife tightly and walking towards Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother who was smiling and distributing cake to everyone.
"Ji Yan!" Li Mingyue called her, trying to stop her.
The system was a little worried and prompted: [Host, are you going to be exposed so soon? What if they all vote for you? ]
[I can't care about that anymore. If I take action now, maybe I can turn the situation around. If I wait any longer, I'm afraid there won't be a suitable opportunity.]
Afterwards, Ruan Jiyan acted as if he didn't hear Li Mingyue's shout, and with a fierce look in his eyes, he was about to stab Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother.
Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother also seemed to be unaware and was still counting the cake portions with a smile on her face.
The next second, he was stabbed by the long knife. An expression of pain slowly appeared on his kind face. Then Ruan Jiyan stabbed the knife deeper without even looking at it.
Blood flowed down the knife, onto Ruan Jiyan's white hands, and then dripped onto the floor.
[? ? ? ! ! ]
[The werewolf blew himself up?]
[No way, no way, is she crazy?]
Before the people present began to express their opinions, the few remaining spectators in You Jieyun's live broadcast room had already begun to doubt.
[The only thing that can kill NPCs is a bug. She must be the werewolf. She was so strange from the beginning, and her performance all the way made people suspicious. Now that the mission is about to end, she can't help but take action?]
[Ah, are you guys that malicious towards a newbie? Never mind, I'll just wait and see!]
The others were still in shock. You Jie stood up and pointed at her and said, "Ruan Jiyan! What are you doing?"
After he yelled at them, several people seemed to wake up and began to whisper, "Is she... a werewolf? Why did she kill Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother? Only NPCs can kill NPCs, right?"
"I don't know, but..."
Ruan Jiyan was in no mood to listen to what they were talking about. He just pulled out the knife and threw the bloody knife next to the fallen Little Red Riding Hood grandmother. He said coldly, "She is a werewolf in disguise. The real grandmother was eaten by him."
She remembered that the original plot of the game was that Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother was eaten by a werewolf, and then after the players left, the werewolf also ate Little Red Riding Hood who stayed with her.
Moreover, the food made by Grandma Wolf also exposed his identity. Although Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother was old, she could still see and walk. Her eyesight would not be so poor that she didn't even know whether the food she made was edible.
What he said was obviously a lame excuse.
"Impossible!" Youjie shouted. This was the first time he lost his composure in such a long time.
"Why not?" Ruan Jiyan asked with amusement as he looked like he couldn't help himself.
“…”
"This must be your excuse. I suspect you are a werewolf more than him. All along, we have been doing missions together, and you have resolved many situations by chance. How can a level 3 newbie have so much luck?" After realizing that he had lost his composure, You Jie adjusted himself and continued.
Every word he said was true, causing the people who were sitting there in a daze to fall into deep thought.
Ruan Jiyan sneered and finally decided to speak.
"My identity is in doubt, so how can you be any better? Since the beginning of the mission, you have been secretly preventing everyone from finding clues, intentionally or unintentionally."
"You seem to care about me, but in reality... you're afraid that the clues will be discovered early, leaving you no room to show your abilities, right?"
"You..." You Jie was a little impatient, but didn't want to go too far, so he was speechless and had nothing to say in response.
With a clang, six cards appeared on the table. They were the cards they used to vote for werewolves in the Werewolf Castle.
The system mechanical sounded: [Werewolf voting has been opened. The last vote has been opened. Werewolf voting will no longer be open after this. Players are requested to vote carefully.]
As soon as the system voice fell, several players walked to their positions to prepare to vote.
Ruan Jiyan had a new line on his hand, which grew out of the flesh of his wrist.
Then, the system voice rang in Ruan Jiyan's ears: [Player/NPC Ruan Jiyan unlocks a new identity: Hunter. Unlocking reward: Soul Transfer Talisman × 2, Life Points × 20, Level Hidden Potion × 2]
Okay, now that the reward is received, she has nothing to worry about.
Finally, several people placed the cards on the table. Ruan Jiyan wrote two words and calmly put down the pen.
She had already expected what the result would be.
