Chapter 237 Secret
"What do you mean?" Cui Shao held onto the bed and tried to sit up, but he couldn't move due to the concussion. If he moved, he would feel dizzy and his face turned pale.
Nie Song was startled and quickly walked over to support him, "Brother Shao, don't get excited, don't get excited, lie down quickly."
Cui Shao grabbed his arm, his expression painful, his eyes fierce and sharp, and gasped, "Speak!"
Nie Song had a sad face and wanted to slap himself a few times. He told everything to others and knew that sooner or later he would be killed by this talkative mouth.
Cui Shao had tinnitus and felt like vomiting. It felt like something was stirring in his head, making him extremely uncomfortable, but he was unwilling to miss this rare news and held on to Nie Song tightly.
Nie Song wanted to run away but couldn't, so he could only stiffen his neck and accept his fate. "Lie down first, I'll talk to you slowly."
After finally calming the man down, Nie Song sat by the bed, spitting and regretting for a long time before reluctantly saying, "I just had a sudden guess. It's so outrageous that even I don't believe it."
Cui Shao stared at him, his bright eyes not at all like those of a concussion patient.
Nie Song: "...I suspect Gu Nan and the friend who died in the game are the same person."
Cui Shao: "...She died in the game, which led to her death in real life as well?"
Nie Song shook his head repeatedly, "I didn't say that. I just doubted it. It's unreliable. I don't believe it myself. You forced me to say it."
Cui Shao stared at him for a while, then let go of his arm.
If even Nie Song could sense something was wrong, then the flaw must be obvious, but he never thought of starting with the game.
Cui Shao suddenly laughed.
His muscles were twitching, his eyes were bloodshot, and the blood vessels on his neck were bulging, looking ugly and crazy.
How could he forget? How could he forget that Gu Nansheng used to make a living by playing games. She was so talented in games, how could she miss the public beta of the holographic game?
What on earth was he doing, how could he miss such an obvious opportunity.
His vision went dark and his stomach churned. He suddenly leaned over the bed and vomited, but he hadn't eaten for a long time, so he only vomited up some sour water, which burned his throat like fire.
Nie Song was frightened by his reaction and quickly called the nurse and doctor.
After a flurry of activity, Cui Shao was forced to rest on the bed again. Cui Yue went upstairs to check, and was filled with anger when he saw Cui Shao's dead look.
Nie Song only felt that Cui Yue's anger was like the fire burning pig hair, which roasted him to ashes in an instant.
He couldn't stay any longer and left in a hurry with a look of shame on his face.
Shi Chao followed with a heavy heart.
Cui Shao obviously knew more than they did, and this investigation might reveal some shocking secrets.
"Beibei Pumpkin and Gu Nan should not be the same person. It's just a game, how could someone die? I've died so many times and I'm still fine..." Nie Song comforted himself.
I heard that Cui Shao was discussing cooperation with Vicostar. If his interruption disrupted the cooperation, Cui Shao would lose billions.
Nie Song bit his nails in panic, "But what if they are really the same person? Wouldn't that mean people will die in the game?"
Nie Song:!!!
If games can kill people, Cui Shao would be right not to cooperate with Victor Star! He's doing a good deed!
He breathed a sigh of relief, but soon became worried again, "If Beibei Pumpkin is Gu Nan, then is she a fan of Gu Nansheng?"
"No, no, she must be a fan of Gu Nansheng. If she's not a fan, how would she know that my nickname is LLL's die-hard fan?"
"But if Gu Nan is really a fan of Gu Nansheng, why does she act like she doesn't know him at all when I mention Gu Nansheng to her?"
And as a fan of Gu Nansheng, she should know that she looks very similar to Gu Nansheng, but her reaction was strange when he said she looked like Gu Nansheng.
No, no, there must be something wrong.
Wait! Isn’t the most wrong thing that if Gu Nan is Beibei Pumpkin, then she is dead?
His boss, the successor to LLL, is dead?!
Nie Song had never felt his brain working so fast before, as if his Ren and Du meridians were suddenly opened.
He stopped where he was, the cold wind of late winter whistling past, chilling his little heart.
If they were the same person, he would be a jinx.
Every fan dies.
Nie Song's face fell, his eyes suddenly turned red, like a fool lost in the wind and snow.
"Shi Chao..." He choked, "It can't be true."
Shi Chao stood beside him with his hands in his pockets, sighed, and the breath he exhaled condensed into white mist in the air, "Who knows."
But he had a hunch that this seemingly absurd answer might be the truth.
He always remembered the forced and ugly smile of Beibei Pumpkin after Bailing issued the wanted notice.
She is not someone who would back down easily. Being hunted and wanted only makes the game more exciting. It won't make her so frightened that she urges them to run away quickly.
She must be hiding a secret, perhaps a secret about the game, or perhaps a secret about... her death.
But she is dead, and no one knows what she was really thinking at that time.
Shi Chao glanced at Nie Song, who was crying, and looked up at the vast sky.
Why is life so fragile and a joke?

Cui Shao was reminded by Nie Songyi, and immediately called his assistant to communicate with Weiketongxing to check Gu Nan's game ID.
The game has not been officially launched yet, there are very few players, and the results will be out soon.
Just as Nie Song guessed, Gu Nan's game ID is Beibei Pumpkin.
At two o'clock yesterday afternoon, Beibei Pumpkin was locked down by the game system for inspection across the world, and eventually died in an extremely tragic way.
Cui Shao asked what the cause of death was.
The assistant reluctantly sent him a video.
It was sent by Baga-chan. It turned out that she had logged off and then logged back on quickly, but the system randomly redirected her to another block. When she arrived, she only captured the scene of Gu Nan being shot and killed by a drone, and Qi Yan going crazy and shooting down several drones before being shot and killed as well.
The video is short, but extremely bloody and cruel.
Cui Shao felt heartbroken as he watched the frail woman leaning against the wall with "Beibei Pumpkin" lit up in the character bar above her head, being shot to pieces by the bullets that covered the sky and the earth, leaving her unrecognizable.
This is how she died.
How cold and painful it must be to have so many bullets injected into the body.
I can't think about it. It feels like a blunt knife cutting my flesh, and it hurts so much that I can hardly breathe.
