Chapter 41 Chapter 41 (1/5)



Shen Yuan said calmly, "Cellululu and Yu Fuling had already told us about this on the first day."

Celluloid and Yu Fuling? Are these the names of the two girls?

Xiao Tangqiu was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening. However, compared to a grown man like him, it was normal for a girl to notice something like this immediately. He scratched his face and said, "Really? So you noticed it a long time ago. I just noticed it when I was taking a shower..."

"It's a good thing to pay more attention to your surroundings," Shen Yuan lowered his head and continued reading. "We'll pay close attention to the mirror issue."

Xiao Tangqiu nodded, went back to the bathroom to tidy up a bit, cleaned it up a bit, and then turned back to the room.

Shen Yuan had already put away the book and lay down as if ready to sleep.

"Your hair isn't dry yet, is it? Don't you want to wipe it?"

Shen Yuan closed his eyes and said, "Trouble."

"Be careful not to catch a cold if you don't dry your hair before going to bed." Perhaps because the atmosphere was too relaxed, Xiao Tangqiu subconsciously spoke in the same tone as she would to Meng Xinghe, "How about I dry it for you?"

After blurting out the words, he immediately realized that his tone seemed too intimate, and quickly changed his words: "...I'm sorry, just pretend you didn't hear anything."

Shen Yuan opened his eyes and glanced at Xiao Tangqiu dimly. After a moment, he said one word: "Okay."

Xiao Tangqiu almost suspected that he had heard it wrong. He was stunned for a few seconds until he found Shen Yuan got up from the bed. He reacted instantly, walked carefully behind Shen Yuan, carefully took the towel that Shen Yuan handed to him, and then carefully began to wipe Shen Yuan's hair.

——He was clearly helping Shen Yuan, so why did he feel flattered?

"By the way, those two guys just now...is it okay to let them go? What if they come back to steal our candles while we're asleep?"

Shen Yuan closed his eyes and said, "No."

Xiao Tangqiu was a little uneasy at first, but when he heard Shen Yuan say this, he suddenly felt relieved. Perhaps because he felt too safe being with Shen Yuan, he gradually relaxed his nerves that had been tense all day, and soon began to feel sleepy.

As he began to wipe Shen Yuan's hair more and more slowly, Shen Yuan suddenly opened his eyes: "That's enough, that's enough."

Xiao Tangqiu quickly cheered up and continued to wipe Shen Yuan's hair: "It's almost done, it will be done soon."

Shen Yuan paused and continued sitting.

After Xiao Tangqiu finished wiping Shen Yuan's hair, Shen Yuan thanked him lightly and lay down to sleep.

Xiao Tangqiu yawned and fell down.

Xiao Tangqiu slept until dawn, and was woken up again by Tang Mianmian the next day.

"Qiuqiu! Wake up! Something happened again!"

Xiao Tangqiu regained consciousness at once. He quickly jumped to his feet. Tang Mianmian's expression was solemn: "Another death."

"Someone died again?" Xiao Tangqiu's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Although he had anticipated that something would happen when the two guys came to steal candles last night, he still felt a little complicated when he actually knew what had happened.

Tang Mianmian nodded: "Yes, that middle-aged woman is dead."

Xiao Tangqiu was stunned: "That middle-aged woman?"

Although he had expected someone to die last night, he never expected that the person who died would be that middle-aged woman... How could it be that middle-aged woman?

Tang Mianmian looked solemn: "Let's go and take a look."

Xiao Tangqiu looked around: "Where's Shen Yuan?"

Tang Mianmian looked outside: "He's gone too."

Xiao Tangqiu quickly washed up and followed Tang Mianmian over.

As expected, the middle-aged woman's door was wide open. Several veteran players stood at the doorway, surveying the situation inside. Xiao Tangqiu squeezed over to take a look and was stunned. The scene inside was truly too tragic.

The body of the middle-aged woman was no longer in human form. Her head was a bloody mess, and her body was ripped open with her internal organs shattered. The floor was covered with organ fragments and coagulated blood, and the walls around the room were also covered with splattered flesh and blood.

Not only that, countless familiar cracks appeared on the floor and walls, and the furniture in the room was also covered with those spider-web-like cracks.

Xiao Tangqiu instantly remembered the dwarf puppet from last night. He suppressed his nausea and left the room. He was about to go find Shen Yuan to ask about the situation when the young man and the middle-aged man also came out of their room.

When the two men saw a group of people gathered at the door of the middle-aged woman's room, a trace of uneasiness flashed across their faces, but they quickly returned to normal and even took the initiative to walk towards the crowd.

"What happened? Someone died again?" The young man walked to the door of the middle-aged woman's room. After seeing the tragic scene in the room, he immediately revealed an indignant look, "This is too cruel! We need to get out of this damn place!"

The middle-aged man also sighed, with a look of pity on his face: "Although this woman was a human trafficker who died a miserable death, her death was still too tragic..."

Xiao Tangqiu suddenly noticed that the candles at the door of the two guys' room were burning again, as if they had never been extinguished.

He turned his head to look at the candle at the door of the middle-aged woman's room - sure enough, it had gone out.

He instantly understood what happened last night.

Xiao Tangqiu looked at the young man coldly. It seemed that after these two guys failed to steal the candles in front of Shen Yuan's room last night, they set their sights on the middle-aged woman... and in the end they succeeded.

Now, except for the young man, the middle-aged man and the little boy, all the newcomers in this round are dead. The remaining ones are experienced old players who have all experienced many ups and downs. Who still doesn't understand what happened last night?

However, no one spoke up to expose the young man's obvious lie. Duan Hongzhen was playing with his flying knife with a smile on his face, as if he was watching a play.

"It's really too cruel," the young man sighed pretentiously. He seemed to suddenly remember something and turned to look at the little boy beside him. "Don't let the child see such a bloody scene. Take him away quickly!"

"Little boy, what's your name? Let me take you to have breakfast." He reached out and tried to hold the little boy's hand, but the little boy dodged away with a stern face.

The young man's hand froze awkwardly in mid-air, but he soon regained his composure and dropped his hand as if nothing had happened.
