The corridor was pitch black and nothing could be seen.
Ta-da-da
Footsteps echoed in the empty stairwell as Su Yi and the machine gunner boy walked towards the second underground floor.
The winding stairs down were like a huge black dragon, extending downward in circles, as if leading to hell.
The machine gun guy held a gun in one hand and a flashlight in the other, walking in front and leading the way. Su Yi followed quietly behind, holding a small flashlight in his hand, and the yellowish light illuminated the steps in front of him.
They moved in the darkness, like two tiny stars floating in the night sky.
It was quiet all around, and Su Yi walked down carefully. On both sides of the tiled steps were heavy stone walls, which pressed him so heavily that he could hardly breathe.
The underground floor was getting darker and darker, and there was an eerie atmosphere.
"Will you be scared?"
The machine gun guy asked, his clear and handsome voice echoing between the wet tiles. Under the dim warm yellow light, the voice seemed somewhat moving.
“…I’m not afraid.”
Su Yi said in a low voice, holding the flashlight tightly in his hand. Although the strange atmosphere from underground made him a little scared, he didn't want to appear too weak, so he said softly, "No..."
Suddenly, hot temperature enveloped him!
Su Yi was startled, and felt a warm touch on the back of his hand. The machine gunner guy walking in front of him had already held his hand without hesitation.
“Then I’m a little scared.”
The machine gun guy turned around and smiled at Su Yi, and without saying anything, he took Su Yi's slender hand?, calmly pretending to be a little scared, like a sincere puppy:
"NO.1, can you hold my hand?"
There was a hint of aggrieved pleading in the tone. Su Yi raised his eyes and saw the warm light of the flashlight shining on the profile of the machine gun guy. A piece of yellow light outlined his handsome profile, with a high nose bridge and brow bones, a mixture of sharpness and lingering childishness. It was the 17-year-old Bai Ye.
"If you hold me tight, I won't be afraid."
The machine gun guy was still saying pitifully that he was afraid, but in fact, his big hand was firmly wrapped around Su Yi's small hand, holding it tightly, not willing to let go at all, like an indestructible protective layer, afraid that Su Yi's delicate little hand would be hurt in the slightest.
“…Let’s go.”
Su Yi felt embarrassed, but he couldn't do anything with his 17-year-old brother, nor could he just shake Bai Ye off. He could only let Machine Gun Bai Ye hold his hand.
A warm current came from his palms. Su Yi walked on the damp and cold floor tiles, feeling the heat flowing up from his fingertips, surging in his blood vessels, helping him dispel the coldness of the darkness. Bai Ye always had a boiling temperature that could warm his four limbs.
Two hands, one big and one small, were tightly held together and kept moving down in the darkness.
Rustle, rustle
Walking down one more floor, Machine Gun Bai Ye moved his nose and sniffed the air:
"Be careful." He whispered to Su Yi:
"Down there, there's a smell of blood."
Su Yi's grip tightened a little.
He thought of the system prompt that the machine gunner had received before: a bloody incident might have occurred on the second underground floor.
"Further down we'll reach the confinement area, where the most dangerous patients in the asylum are kept."
Click, the machine gun guy pulled the safety of the gun, licked his lower lip, and his eyes under the sunglasses became a little excited.
He had excellent night vision and could see clearly even in such a dark environment with sunglasses on. He held Su Yi's hand and hunted underground like a ferocious nocturnal animal, excited for the upcoming bloodshed.
As the only normal person in the mental hospital, detective Su Yike is not so perverted. The bloody incident means violence and danger, these two factors are very unfavorable to him.
He sneaked into the underground to find clues about the truth. Dadada88, the trumpet player, was locked up in the solitary confinement room because he didn't take medicine. Su Yi guessed that this person came here on purpose, was he going to see a patient who was locked up in the solitary confinement room? Or did he want to go to some forbidden place...
Su Yi wanted to go down to the confinement room to investigate, but if a direct violent conflict occurred, he would only become a burden as he had no fighting ability, not to mention being able to lure out dadada88 to explore the [truth].
"Don't worry, my wife!" The life-saving system interrupted in my mind:
"I will report any danger. If there is a serious problem, these dogs can be used."
Su Yi: Use...a dog?
Life-saving system: "Yes, so many dogs, are you raising them just to let them bark? Wife, you can hide in the dark and be a strategic commander, commanding these dogs to do things, protect you, and eliminate all difficulties and obstacles!
"For example, this one right now... I detected that there is a [17-year-old-green tea dog] in front of my wife!"
Su Yi saw a booklet unfolded in the void in front of him, on which was written:
"My Wife's Dog User Manual"
Life-saving system
①17 years old-Green Tea Dog
Advantages: Young and lively, good night vision, good with guns, can be used as a backup to supplement combat power.
Disadvantages: Still a newbie, he does not have enough experience items and gold coins. Due to the complex [slum] environment in which he grew up, he has developed a slightly cunning personality and sometimes has his own plans.
Su Yi: "...Why do you always call me Bai Ye Gou?"
The life-saving system hummed twice and didn't answer.
The tiled staircase was finally coming to an end, and the negative energy from underground was coming out, bringing with it a terrifying aura.
Su Yi felt a little timid. After walking up the stairs, he entered the restricted area of the mental hospital. Who was imprisoned there?
The machine gun guy tightened his grip and walked down firmly.
They went down a few more steps, and Su Yi felt that the temperature around him seemed to drop even lower. The air was filled with a cold breath, mixed with...
Very strong fishy smell.
This time even Su Yi could smell it, it was the smell of blood!
What on earth happened in the restricted area? Su Yi suddenly had a bad guess about the strong smell of blood. He thought of his ultimate goal in this copy of the [Detective] role:
…[serial killer].
“Ah ...
Suddenly! A miserable scream came from the darkness!
Su Yi was shocked. This voice was...dadada88?
Swish. The machine gunner immediately raised his gun and aimed it at the underground exit.
He stood on the stone steps, using his tall figure to firmly block Su Yi behind him, with the black muzzle of his gun aimed forward, ready to kill anyone who came.
“Ah…Ah…!!”
There were continuous miserable and weak cries, and the sound of sharp objects piercing into flesh. I wonder what kind of torture he was suffering...
Su Yi's teeth chattered as he listened, and soon, he heard hurried footsteps running out of the darkness:
“Help…please…help…!”
The cry for help came from far away, but the machine gun guy didn't move at all, his hand was firmly on the trigger, ready to pull the trigger at any time.
“…Help!! Help me—!”
In an instant, Su Yi saw a bloody man rushing out of the dark entrance underground!
It’s… dadada88, half of the flesh on his face was cut off, and even half of his ear was cut off.
He stumbled out, covering his bleeding ear, and asked for help. Su Yi could hardly recognize him. The wounds on his body were even worse than those on his face. His left foot was broken by someone and stuffed into a small iron chain loop at an extremely twisted angle.
It seemed that a piece of flesh had been cut off from the right leg, and the pants were soaked with blood. The thigh where the flesh was missing was strangely sunken, and the exposed arm had a layer of skin peeled off, revealing the bright red flesh and tendons under the skin.
Su Yi didn't dare to look anymore. The dadada88 player was beaten to the point where he looked almost like a human being. There was a dagger with a blood groove stuck in his stomach. The machine gun guy looked at it coldly. That part should be the liver. This guy was completely beyond help.
...By the way, who is this guy?
When the machine gun guy saw this inhuman human, his heart turned cold. He had never paid attention to dadada88 at all. Except for Su Yi's ID, he was too lazy to even look at other players' IDs, let alone remember who the ID names corresponded to.
The 17-year-old machine gunner Bai Ye held his gun and stood calmly where he was, not rushing down to save this guy he didn't know at all and who was undoubtedly going to die.
Sizzle——Sizzle——
At this moment, Su Yi and Bai Ye both heard a harsh sound coming from deeper underground and in the thicker darkness, like the sound of iron chains scraping on rough floor tiles.
“Ah…! Ah…!!”
With a bang, dadada88, whose left foot was locked by the iron chain, fell to the ground. Su Yi saw that the iron chain behind his left foot was shortening inch by inch, and the whole person was being dragged back by a huge force!
The severe bleeding wound dragged a long bright red trail on the ground, mixed with dadad88's painful screams of dying. He was cruelly dragged into the depths of darkness by the monster behind him.
Su Yi stayed where he was. He did not want to risk rushing in to rescue. If it was an ordinary player, he might be willing to lend a hand, but dadada88 was a small player and had high-level permissions different from them.
For high-level players, [Horror Script Killing] is probably like a large-scale game. If you lose, you can start over. If you don’t want to play anymore, you can go back to the real world, Su Yi thought. But will these high-level players give him the authority to launch a Jedi counterattack...?
Phew!
Just as Su Yi finished this thought, he heard the sound of a sharp object piercing flesh in the darkness. Deep underground, dadada88 could no longer scream, so he might be... dead.
Who killed dadada88?
[Ding Dong——]
Suddenly, a notification sound from the light screen rang beside his ears, and Su Yi heard:
[Warning! Player-Detective Su, you are just getting into the main storyline, it is very dangerous...]
[Danger! Warning again! The most dangerous pervert in the mental hospital is approaching you quickly! ]
[This person is bloodthirsty and murderous, and uses indiscriminate killing tactics. Players, please be vigilant! ]
【Attention! Please note that the killer is the boss of this instance. According to the plot setting, he is the top fighter in this instance. Players may die instantly when they clash with him. Please be aware of this!】
Tick, tick, tick.
The sound of high boots stepping on the floor tiles echoed in the darkness, accompanied by the clacking sound of iron chains being dragged.
In the gloomy underground, the terrifying murderer was walking towards Detective Su step by step...
The machine gun guy stood in front of Su Yi, holding up his gun firmly, like a police dog waiting for orders.
