Chapter 69 Children’s Choir (7)
The three children had fair faces and looked no more than ten years old, but where their eyes should be were deep blood holes. When they spoke, their mouths were open, but there were no tongues inside.
"It can't be a monster..." said the little girl with pigtails, "Nick said he saw monster eyes under the bed in the confessional yesterday! Could there be a monster in this closet watching us?"
When she spoke the last part, her voice even trembled a little.
"Hey, Beth, are you too timid? How could there be a monster in the church? God bless us!" said one of the boys.
"Come to think of it, isn't Nick a liar? Maybe he's trying to scare us on purpose." Another boy said, "Nick has been talking nonsense ever since we started singing to those patients."
"But it's not just Nick. I also feel uncomfortable every time I sing to them. The way they look at us is really scary." The girl said timidly, "How about we open the cabinet and take a look?"
As they spoke, the three children with bloodshot eyes began to reach out for the cabinet door.
Gu Qiufeng quickly sprayed himself with invisibility spray and let the ghost baby stand in front of him.
The ghost baby was a very powerful dungeon BOSS after all, so before the ghost kids even had time to react, it opened its big mouth that could drag them to the ground and swallowed them violently.
Then, the ghost baby shook its head and suddenly wrinkled its facial features. Just when Gu Qiufeng thought it was suffering from indigestion, the ghost baby suddenly turned towards him, opened its terrifying big mouth again, and took out a thin notebook with its little hands.
Gu Qiufeng: "...Thank you."
The ghost baby burped contentedly, then went back into Gu Qiufeng's cards to rest and digest the food.
The notebook was still written in Spanish, which Gu Qiufeng could not understand, so he put it away and planned to ask Duan Jiangli to translate it after he met him again.
At this moment, Gu Qiufeng's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He began to check the character cards in his inventory, only to see that the crack on the surface of the card representing Shao Qiu Shui in the Yucheng University copy had been repaired.
The guide of City D fulfilled his promise and actually completed the repair of the character card!
Gu Qiufeng quickly opened the property panel and checked it carefully.
[SSR Character Card "Dancing Girl in the Sea of Fire"
Skill Description: Healing skill, can give the player a chance to revive with full health in a low health state
Restriction: Used within a copy, only once per copy]
This is so timely!
Gu Qiufeng summoned Shao Qiu Shui without thinking.
This little girl walked between life and death. In fact, she could sense the external situation through the card, so when she saw Gu Qiufeng, Shao Qiu Shui almost cried with surprise.
But soon, she realized something was wrong with the surrounding environment, so she asked hurriedly, "Mr. Gu, what do you need me to do now?"
Gu Qiufeng smiled and said, "Help me remember a song."
Shao Qiu Shui agreed immediately.
After all, Gu Qiufeng is not a professional. Even if he memorized the complete music score using his instant memory, there is a high possibility that he would make mistakes or omissions later. It would be better to let a professional do it.
As a dancer since childhood, Shao Qiushui is much more sensitive to music than ordinary people. After Gu Qiufeng hummed it to her, the girl lowered her head and whispered it several times, then raised her head with certainty: "I've got it down, sir."
Gu Qiufeng praised: "Well done."
This room had nothing but a wardrobe and several rows of stools. After the death of the three ghost children, there was nothing else unusual. Gu Qiufeng took a few glances and after making sure nothing was missed, he took Shao Qiu Shui to the corridor.
"Are you afraid of ghosts?" Gu Qiufeng asked.
Shao Qiushui shook his head firmly: "I'm already scared. I came here despite the dangers of Yucheng University. I won't die now anyway, so there's nothing to be afraid of."
[Old fans are in tears, woooooooooo Miss Qiushui, I thought Qiushui stayed in the dungeon, but I didn't expect Boss Gu to bring her out! ]
[Qiu Shui has experienced something, it seems like she has grown a lot! It’s a pity that she is an NPC, I feel like if she were a player, she would be very good now]
[Not a pity!!! Now that she has become Boss Gu's card, she will not die. Isn't this much better than being a player! ]
[(Smoke) I miss the cute little Feng He. After Boss Gu got so many new people, Feng He's appearance rate has really dropped a lot.]
[Don't worry, when Boss Gu releases the dungeon, we must let him see the voting system! Then we will give points to the cute Fenghe, and Fenghe will have more shots]
[I want to support Goddess Arcana. Even though she has criticized me countless times, she is really pretty (pointing fingers). The blue hair is really beautiful, which suits the taste of this two-dimensional person.]
Gu Qiufeng naturally had no idea what the barrage in his live broadcast room looked like right now. He had his own reasons for keeping Shao Qiu Shui by his side.
Firstly, Shao Qiushui's nurse skills would give them a certain advantage when they entered the small dark room at night. Secondly, Shao Qiushui should have the most say in the music score.
What's more, Shao Qiu Shui's qualities are not bad, she is fully capable of breaking through the dungeon.
"Mr. Gu!!" Dai Xiao and the others just happened to be walking over from the other side of the corridor. As soon as she saw Gu Qiufeng, she couldn't help but shout loudly.
"Wait." Duan Jiangli stopped Dai Xiao who was about to run over. He said with a serious expression, "Senior, who is that person next to you?"
Shao Qiu Shui looked like an ordinary female college student. At best, she had a pretty face, but Duan Jiangli could not remember seeing such a face among human players.
Gu Qiufeng spread his hands: "It's an NPC. Didn't I tell you that I'm helping the NPC debut now?"
Duan Jiangli: “……?”
It’s actually true.
Shao Qiushui silently waved his hand: "Hello, you can treat me as a worker."
"Looks like a human." Duan Jiangli couldn't help but sigh, "What copy were you from before?"
"Yucheng University." Shao Qiushui replied, "I'm a student of the dance department."
Duan Jiangli frowned: "Yucheng University...?"
He instantly remembered the big event that happened at Yucheng University in reality, and then looked at Gu Qiufeng with an extremely shocked look: "It turned out to be you!"
The savior-like existence turned out to be Gu Qiufeng who was in the copy.
Gu Qiufeng asked, "Is the Yucheng University case handled by you or your sister?"
"It was my sister at first. Later, she disappeared for three months and entered the game, and then handed it over to me. Yucheng University is more troublesome. We have been dealing with it for more than half a year and have not been able to completely eliminate the origin of it..." Duan Jiangli's face was complicated, "Then just half a month ago, all the abnormalities in Yucheng University disappeared."
It just coincides with the timeline when Gu Qiufeng entered the copy.
Gu Qiufeng murmured, "So that's how it is."
"Wait, that Phoenix Village..." Duan Jiangli couldn't help but ask, "Do you know this place? It's on a hill in the suburbs of City A. If there hadn't been any abnormalities on the mountain, we wouldn't have discovered that there were traces of origin activities there."
Gu Qiufeng: "...Ah, it's me too."
Duan Jiangli fell into silence.
At this moment, Dai Xiao, who had not figured out the situation, finally reacted: "Wait, you said Yucheng University?"
Gu Qiufeng and Duan Jiangli looked at her and said in unison: "You know?"
Dai Xiao looked confused: "Um, are you talking about Yucheng University before the fire? I do know that Xie Xin... had a private trip to Yucheng University. It seemed that he was discussing business cooperation with the school leaders."
Gu Qiufeng couldn't help but ask: "How did you know?"
Even his agent didn't know about Xie Xin's private schedule, and big fans and paparazzi basically didn't know anything about it. How did Dai Xiao know about it?
Dai Xiao was so overwhelmed by the stares that he quickly said, "I'm not a stalker or a scalper. I went to Yucheng University to take the teacher qualification exam that day and ran into Xie Xin at the school gate. I'm his fan, so I asked for a photo. I didn't dare to post it on my Moments because I was afraid of exposing his schedule."
Dai Xiao still remembers that Xie Xin asked her what time the exam would end that day.
Dai Xiao took out his admission ticket and showed it to Xie Xin.
After Xie Xin finished reading it, he chuckled and said to Dai Xiao earnestly, "It's getting late after the exam, so go home early."
Dai Xiao had classes in the evening and had to catch the bus after the exam, so she agreed immediately. The test questions she drew were not difficult, and she was well prepared, so she answered them quickly. After answering, she did not walk around the campus for long and caught the bus back to class.
Less than two or three hours before and after her, Yucheng University caught fire. Dai Xiao was scared to death at the time, until she found the Reuters of Xie Xin's crew that night on Weibo Square, and then she was relieved that Xie Xin was not implicated.
At the same time, Dai Xiao was a little complacent, thinking that she was able to escape the disaster thanks to the blessing of her natal star Xie Xin.
Yucheng University had been closed for several days before. I heard it was related to a case of a man jumping from a building. It was finally reopened as a teaching qualification examination site, but this kind of thing happened again. Fortunately, many students escaped, but it seemed that there were also a lot of casualties. The school leaders neglected their duties and disregarded human lives. It was the students of the school who took the initiative to call the police, which allowed them to arrive in time.
Duan Jiangli and Gu Qiufeng looked at each other and spoke at the same time. %
Duan Jiangli: "The fire helped us a lot at that time. Many monsters in Yucheng University were burned to death in the fire. It also helped many students of our school escape, and also provided a good excuse for our protection center's actions."
Gu Qiufeng said: "When you public officials came, Xie Xin had not left yet."
"He was standing at the entrance of the university, watching the fire at Yucheng University."
Then he instantly returned to the filming location far away in the south. It was seamless. Except for Dai Xiao who met him by chance, almost no one knew that Xie Xin had been nearby on the day of the accident at Yucheng University.
Duan Jiangli gritted his teeth and said, "This thing is definitely not a human being."
