Be careful
"Boss Zhou Zhou, aren't you going to hold a review meeting for the new instance you're in?"
Sheng Ju is always elusive. Just as He Lizhou closed the door of the ward, he appeared out of nowhere.
Speaking of this, He Lizhou couldn't help but think of the relationship between Bai Yimei and Sheng Ju. He looked at him and said carefully, "If... someone hid something very important from you, what would you think?"
He did not learn from Sheng Ju that Bai Yimei was a copy NPC. If Bai Yimei had told Sheng Ju, given Sheng Ju's personality, he would not have been able to resist telling him, so He Lizhou speculated that Bai Yimei had not told Sheng Ju about this.
In He Lizhou's eyes, although Sheng Ju was occasionally naughty, it was just his youth and childishness. The most uncomfortable thing was that everyone was hiding something from him, so he was worried that Sheng Ju would be unhappy when he suddenly found out.
The relaxed smile on Sheng Ju's face froze. He was originally still secretly happy that he didn't have to attend the meeting, but he immediately panicked after hearing this. He thought He Lizhou had kept it a secret from him, so he quickly stood up straight, "Zhou Zhou! I, I won't blame you. You kept it a secret for my own good, right? I just don't want to hear it, no need to tell me!"
As he spoke, he covered his ears with his hands and closed his eyes tightly, as if refusing to communicate, for fear that he would hear some undesirable result from He Lizhou's mouth, such as "dismissing" him.
As soon as He Lizhou saw his expression, he knew that he was overthinking and laughed, "It's not about the hotel, it's about... Bai Yimei."
Hearing that it was not about the hotel, Sheng Ju breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister Meimei? It's normal for Sister Meimei to hide something from me. We seem to have a very good relationship, but in the end, we are just business guests."
He Lizhou was a little surprised when these words were spoken. He didn't expect Sheng Ju to have such a thorough idea. He felt a little relieved that "my son has grown up".
Sheng Ju didn't notice He Lizhou's relieved expression. He pressed the corner of his lips and thought, "What could Sister Meimei hide from me? Let me think... She seems to have never mentioned her family? Is it about her family?"
Considering that Bai Qiuliang had once caused trouble for the inn, Sheng Ju couldn't help but have a wild imagination, "Could it be that Bai Qiuliang did something again? Did he throw Sister Meimei into the infinite flow game?"
Seeing that Sheng Ju's guess was getting more and more off the mark, He Lizhou revealed the answer in advance, "Bai Yimei is an NPC in the dungeon."
Sheng Ju stayed where he was, his movements stiff, "Ah...?"
He Lizhou told Sheng Ju everything that happened to him in the copy, and finally said that the key props in the copy had been brought out, the subtext being that the copy had collapsed and disappeared.
Sheng Ju seemed a little slow at this time, and asked blankly: "What about Sister Meimei?"
He Lizhou looked at him without saying anything.
Sheng Ju also understood the meaning of this silence, and after a while he said, "Oh."
…
Even though such a large amount of information was known, and the "White Mansion" copy would most likely not be restarted, the review meeting would still have to continue. Even if the information was not put into the Intelligence Building, it would have to be kept in the inn and sealed.
Because only He Lizhou entered the dungeon this time, and his identity in the dungeon was the NPC manager, He Lizhou invited the player Si Dongyun to supplement from the side.
He Lizhou didn’t know the players’ missions, but he guessed from the copy that it was a “supplementary main storyline” type, which was considered a correct guess. Si Dongyun nodded affirmatively.
Next, He Lizhou recounted what happened to him in the dungeon, including his discovery that the usual loopholes in the game were also feasible in this dungeon, although no player had used it at the time: under the guise of Mr. Bai, one could move freely in the Bai Mansion.
Si Dongyun was still confused at first, but after hearing this, he suddenly realized, "I was wondering why I always felt something was wrong when I was in the dungeon, as if there was an easier way. It turns out I forgot this."
He Lizhou smiled when he heard this. "Something in the dungeon has affected everyone's thinking, which is why so many players are unwilling to think. If it weren't for you and Wu Guyun, the players would probably be killed one by one by Gu Shangding in their 'tandem', just like crushing an ant that won't resist."
Si Dongyun couldn't help swallowing his saliva. When he looked at He Lizhou again, he had regained his gentle expression. He couldn't help muttering, "Your ghost stories will definitely be scary..."
He Lizhou seemed not to hear it, but he quietly raised the corners of his lips in between speeches.
Infinite flow games are very cruel, and what everyone is best at is finding joy in suffering.
Jiang Jiang wrote the last stroke, checked it from top to bottom, turned to look at Rong Jia beside her, "Sister Rong Jia, did I make any mistakes?"
Rong Jia nodded, "Great."
Jiang Jiang then heaved a sigh of relief and closed the book, "Then should we seal it up?"
He Lizhou nodded. Uncle Cui had been holding it in for the entire meeting, and now he finally couldn't help but ask, "Is Xiaobai really not coming back?"
Uncle Cui was the one who cared the most about the young people in the hotel. He had communicated with Bai Yimei several times. Although each conversation was hurried and limited, he liked this gentle and generous girl very much in his heart and really didn't want to see such an outcome.
Now that this has been mentioned, He Lizhou thought of something and raised his head to instruct all the hotel employees, "From now on, when we run the hotel, we must also pay attention to the guests. There may be guests in the same situation as Miss Bai."
Everyone had different looks. Peng Ningyu moved her lips and asked, "Do you still remember Ming Luoluo?"
Ming Luoluo was the one that everyone thought was a father and son duo, but it turned out that the "father" was poisoned to death by the "son" Ming Luoluo. Later, Ming Luoluo disappeared on his own. This was the first incident in the hotel and it is hard not to remember it.
Peng Ningyu saw everyone's expressions and knew that everyone still remembered it, so she said: "After Ming Luoluo disappeared, I posted a message on the forum and confirmed the man's information. He was a player. I didn't find anything unusual, so I didn't tell anyone. Now I think about it..."
Now that I think about it, that Ming Luoluo was probably an NPC in a certain dungeon. He accidentally came to the transit hall and held a man hostage. The two of them pretended to be father and son and checked into the hotel.
Everyone in the inn looked at each other, and finally waited for He Lizhou to speak, "Forget it, although Ming Luoluo is most likely his real name, we can't enter the dungeon and catch him even if we know his name. Let's pay attention to other NPCs in the future."
Sheng Ju and the others all thought that He Lizhou was only in trouble because of the system, so they asked them to pay attention to the NPC. Only Ban Hefeng looked at He Lizhou thoughtfully.
He Lizhou has now become very sensitive to Ban Hefeng's gaze. Sometimes he even suspects that Ban Hefeng is a worm in his stomach. Every time he has a plan, Ban Hefeng will notice it and guess his actions. He can only be thankful that the two are not enemies.
Ban Hefeng didn't know what He Lizhou was thinking. He was wondering what He Lizhou was going to do. Ban Hefeng thought about it himself. According to normal thinking, even if he knew that there might be NPCs among the guests in the hotel, if they did not offend each other, he would choose to pretend to be completely unaware and not plan to do anything more.
If you want to have contact with NPCs, you can't always try to persuade NPCs to make peace with players and not to hurt players in the dungeon! !
Ban Hefeng believes that he does not have the leisure time or the eloquence to convince NPCs and players to live in harmony.
Ban Hefeng scratched his head. He really couldn't guess it this time, so he simply didn't bother himself. If He Lizhou did a good job, he could just follow him and take advantage of the hotel; if he didn't do a good job, he could always leave.
After deciding where to go, Ban Hefeng opened the door of his room, only to see that Qin Tuo had woken up and was standing at the window looking out.
Qin Tuo was very alert, and he didn't need to turn around when he heard the voice, "Hefeng."
Ban Hefeng walked forward quickly and said, "Why are you standing here? Sit down and rest for a while."
He hesitated for a moment, but still called out the familiar name, "President."
Qin Tuo then turned around. His face was not as serious as Ban Hefeng imagined. Instead, he had a slight smile on his face. "Chan Yu is almost gone, why call me 'President'? Just call me whatever you want!"
Ban Hefeng was shocked and couldn't help asking, "Is Chanyu okay..."
Qin Tuo waved his hand and said, "Hey, you don't have to hide it from me. I already knew that Bai Qiuliang was an NPC in the dungeon "Bai Mansion". I realized it as soon as I entered the dungeon and guessed that Chanyu would probably be bad too."
He looked at Ban Hefeng and said, "Your biggest problem is that you are overly self-protective. You are not the type to go against Bai Qiuliang just for Chan Yu."
Ban Hefeng lowered his head after hearing what Qin Tuo said, but he really couldn't refute Qin Tuo's understanding of him. Even when he returned to the room just now, wasn't he thinking about self-protection?
Qin Tuo is not saying that this kind of temperament is bad, on the contrary, sometimes only people with this kind of temperament can survive to the end, and being prudent and protecting oneself is also a great wisdom.
He held onto a chair and sat down. "I've been buried in the dungeon for a long time, and I feel like my body is not as good as before. I heard that Yang Ze and Xing Wei also came here, so why aren't they here?"
Ban Hefeng smiled and said, "Yang Ze couldn't help it a long time ago, and came to secretly look at you many times. It's just that he was kept by Boss He after the meeting just now. I guess he will come to see you again soon."
When Qin Tuo entered the copy, his son was five years younger than Hou Yangze. At that time, he raised Hou Yangze as his son, and the two were as close as father and son.
As expected, the moment Hou Yangze was released by He Lizhou, he ran into Ban Hefeng's room again, stuck his head out, and saw Ban Hefeng first. Just as he was about to retract his head, he found Qin Tuo sitting beside him, looking at him with a smile.
Hou Yangze opened his mouth slightly, and after a while he ran over crying, "President!"
Qin Tuo caught Hou Yangze and said, "You are such a grown-up child, but you are still crying."
The time in the game is paused. Although Hou Yangze still looks like he is fifteen years old, his experience in dungeons over the years has made him more mature than an ordinary eighteen or nineteen-year-old. He just can't help himself when he meets Qin Tuo.
Hou Yangze realized that Ban Hefeng was still here, and with a red face, he left Qin Tuo's arms and greeted him awkwardly: "Brother Ban."
Ban Hefeng had high hopes for Hou Yangze. He had always attached great importance to Hou Yangze's training. He became even more strict after he came to the hotel. Hou Yangze worked as a "child laborer" for the hotel during the day and had to prepare for Ban Hefeng's inspection at night. There was a period of time when he simply avoided Ban Hefeng.
He stole a glance at Qin Tuo and said, "President, I think... my ability is pretty good now, so I can take a break."
Qin Tuo knew about Ban Hefeng's training with Hou Yangze, and he didn't intend to intervene to stop him. This was a good thing, so he smiled and said, "You two brothers should discuss yourselves."
