Chapter 315 Confident Man
"This, I really don't know." Zhu Shan was stumped by Jiang Liyue's question. After thinking for a moment, she realized that she had subconsciously ignored the question for some reason.
Jiang Liyue pondered: "So, could this victim be a serial killer?"
Zhu Shan frowned and thought for a long time before saying, "That possibility cannot be ruled out."
"After all, she was cruelly tortured and had her internal organs eaten before she died, so it's normal for her to be eating other people now."
Jiang Liyue didn't continue on that topic, and instead asked, "So what was the victim's name, and which floor did he live on?"
Aside from official archives and Zhu Shan, who was in charge at the time, it's hard to say who else would know this information.
“Peng Wan lives on the nineteenth floor, 1908.” Zhu Shan paused after saying that, and looked at Jiang Liyue with a slightly subtle expression. “It seems to be right above your apartment.”
Jiang Liyue didn't show any fear, but instead curled the corners of her lips and said, "I understand, thank you, Sister Shan."
"On the nineteenth floor?" She knew.
After saying goodbye to Zhu Shan, Jiang Liyue didn't go directly to the nineteenth floor to find someone. Instead, she went home to check on her otaku boyfriend in this instance.
As expected, Yan Mobai prepared dinner as he had at noon, and only after Jiang Liyue finished eating did he bring up the issue of the nineteenth floor.
"Does anyone live upstairs from me?"
Yan Mobai held the person in his arms and played with his fingers. Hearing the question, he thought about it carefully before shaking his head: "No, Yueyue."
"No?" Jiang Liyue asked, puzzled.
Yan Mobai nodded affirmatively: "That's right, no, no one lives on the nineteenth floor."
Jiang Liyue: "Why? I remember there were residents on the nineteenth floor in the group chat."
And today she also saw a boy coming down from the 19th floor of the elevator.
Yan Mobai waved his hand casually: "Because that place isn't suitable for living, and there's no one there anyway. As for that guy you saw, Yueyue, are you curious? Actually, I can..."
"No," Jiang Liyue quickly stopped him, "I already told you to do it myself."
Yan Mobai could only nod regretfully, "Alright."
But the next moment he became excited again: "Honey, why don't you move upstairs and live with me? I live on the twentieth floor, and the whole floor up there is my territory. It's very spacious, and there are all sorts of things to play with. It's much more comfortable than your little room."
His eyes gleamed with a sharp light, as if he were trying to lure his wife back to his own home.
Jiang Liyue raised an eyebrow: "If you think my little room isn't comfortable enough, then the manager should go back to his own home tonight."
"That's not what I meant." Yan Mobai quickly hugged her tighter, as if afraid that she would really drive him away.
He looked at her with a wronged expression: "Yueyue, you misunderstood me. It's not that I think your place is bad, it's just that it will definitely be more convenient if we go upstairs..."
Of course, Yan Mobai also liked the other parts of this small room very much.
After all, this small space was filled with Jiang Liyue's scent.
Her presence is everywhere, as if I'm completely enveloped by her; it's simply blissful.
However, as a dungeon boss with a strong sense of territory and the most powerful monster, Yan Mobai naturally wanted to take his treasure back to his lair to keep it safe.
Only in this way will he feel safe and have a real sense that she belongs entirely to him.
Moreover, if it were on his territory, Yueyue wouldn't be able to escape so easily; she would be marked with his unique mark.
No one dared to covet her anymore.
They can do all sorts of intimate things at home every day.
Thinking of this, Yan Mobai wished he could take the person home immediately.
Jiang Liyue looked at the man in front of her, whose eyes gleamed with satisfaction, as if he had just thought of something: ?
"what's on your mind?"
"No, no." Yan Mobai blushed slightly at his own fantasy, and thinking about the happy life that would follow if it came true, he tried his best to persuade him.
"Yueyue, why don't you stay at my place?"
He assured, "I will keep this room for you and will not rent it to anyone. We can still come down to stay occasionally."
After all, he didn't want anyone else to have the chance to come into the place where Yueyue's wife had lived.
Jiang Liyue firmly refused: "No."
She knew without even thinking what he would do if she moved upstairs. She was currently doing a dungeon quest, and if he really got involved with her, she wouldn't have any energy left.
So, at least let's wait until she finishes her task of finding the killer.
Yan Mobai was rejected again, and his eyebrows and eyes drooped down, like a puppy that had been soaked by the rain: "Oh."
If he knew that Jiang Liyue was unwilling to move upstairs simply because she hadn't yet found out who the killer was.
Then he would immediately drag the murderer to Jiang Liyue and make him confess everything about his ancestors.
Unfortunately, Yan Mobai didn't know the reason.
Serial killer: ...Thank God I escaped.
Please, he's a murderer, not part of your lovey-dovey play, okay?
Jiang Liyue was talking to Yan Mobai when she suddenly heard screams coming from the apartment building.
The screams seemed to come from more than one floor, but from different floors.
At the same time, Jiang Liyue received a message from Lu Yi on her phone.
[Yueyue, it seems like the eerie atmosphere has lifted restrictions tonight; we can kill people now. Be careful.]
Jiang Liyue glanced at the strange boss next to her who was still focused on playing with her hands and hair, and tapped a line of text on the screen with one hand.
【Okay, thank you.】
Apartment 444 is not just home to a single cannibalistic killer; all these other supernatural beings have had their restrictions lifted.
The apartment might be interesting tonight.
Li Ming felt that he was simply a genius. If this world were a novel, he would be the protagonist of the novel, experiencing "thirty years east of the river and thirty years west of the river".
After all, the first dungeon is an A-rank dungeon; most people don't get that kind of treatment...
Of course, Li Ming was somewhat desperate when he discovered that his first dungeon was an A-rank dungeon.
The bizarre game has been around for almost a year, and quite a few players have entered the dungeon. Li Ming had learned about it in advance through various channels and knew how difficult the A-level dungeon was.
The death rate for most A-level dungeons exceeds 95%, and some are even close to 100%.
So how could a novice player like him possibly survive well in an A-level dungeon?
That was actually what Li Ming thought at first.
Not long after he entered the instance, a beautifully dressed girl knocked on the door.
In the real world, Li Ming, with his ordinary personality, average looks, and mediocre job, would never have experienced being wooed by a pretty girl.
His eyes widened immediately.
Unexpectedly, the pretty girl was his next-door neighbor, who claimed that she was attracted to him after seeing him move in.
As for others not discovering his charm, that's because they lack vision.
Li Ming, who had never even held a girl's hand before, couldn't resist and was easily charmed.
If it were just him, that would be one thing, but the real problem is that the pretty girl next door is actually a twin sister, and both sisters like him.
The beautiful young woman across the hall even greeted him the next day.
With so many romantic encounters, Li Ming couldn't help but think of harem novels like "The Female Tenant" and "School Beauty".
Hehe, although he is ordinary, girls love to throw themselves at him. Isn't this the kind of novel he usually likes to read?
It turns out that he is the male protagonist of this world, only after entering the bizarre game.
He's still the kind of ordinary male protagonist in harem novels.
He was so smug that he almost forgot about the killer's existence.
Li Ming only felt fear when the killer almost actually knocked on his door, but he didn't feel fear for long before he was taken to the house by the twin sisters next door.
Only then did Li Ming realize that hiding in the eerie house could allow him to escape the killer's massacre at night.
Of course, Li Ming wasn't entirely without vigilance. These two sisters were also strange. The killer didn't eat him, but what if they did?
He thought about it with extreme caution.
The two sisters hid in each other's homes for two consecutive nights, but did not make a move.
Li Ming finally believed them and lowered his guard.
So that's how charming he is, even female ghosts would fall at his feet.
Li Ming stopped looking for clues and spent his days playing with the sisters next door and the beautiful young woman until the third night.
He hid in the sisters' house again, and the killer's voice came from outside the corridor again, the footsteps gradually fading away and disappearing completely.
He hugged the two sisters and said emotionally, "Thanks to you, I am safe and sound. Don't worry, you will always be the most important people in my heart."
Of course, the male protagonist in a harem novel won't only have two or three women; there will be many more beautiful women attracted to him in the future.
Li Ming's ordinary face was full of confidence.
He looked at them with what he thought was handsome and affectionate eyes and began to speak.
However, today the two sisters did not show the same affectionate expression as the previous two days. Instead, they grinned, which looked somewhat strange.
Their hair was very long, draped over both sides of their faces, giving them an eerie, ghostly aura.
His mouth was almost splitting open to his ears, and his gaze toward Li Ming was filled with the same lustful look.
For some inexplicable reason, a sense of panic began to rise in Li Ming's heart that he couldn't explain.
"What's wrong with you two? Why aren't you saying anything?" he stammered. "It's getting late tonight, how about we... we can talk again tomorrow during the day..."
"No, brother, how can you leave?" the older sister said with a sinister smile.
The younger sister nodded in agreement: "That's right, isn't brother supposed to play games with us?"
Li Ming was so frightened that he fell to the ground: "Actually, I don't really like playing games."
He got up from the ground and stumbled towards the door.
Unfortunately, before he could even touch the doorknob, a sharp pain shot through his back.
The two female ghosts grabbed his hands and bit down with their sharp white teeth.
Li Ming screamed in agony, looking at the two ghosts in terror, not knowing how things had turned out this way.
Shouldn't the two of them admire him?
Isn't he the male protagonist of this world?
Before losing consciousness, Li Ming heard the voices of two ghosts talking.
"Pah, this meat is so fatty."
"Being able to eat is good enough, don't be picky."
"That's true, after all, we played along with this idiot for two days before we finally got him to completely lower his guard."
"Luckily we were fast, otherwise that female ghost on the other side would have tried to take a share of our spoils."
"I must say, this method of raising pigs is really good. We'll continue to use this method when new tenants move in next time."
"I know, don't pick those who look handsome and smart. If you're going to choose someone, choose this kind of person who isn't good-looking but is quite confident."
"Haha, you really think you're something special just because you're coaxed so easily."
"Tsk, I hope they'll all be this stupid from now on."
"Okay, stop talking and eat quickly, or that guy across the street will smell it and come over to steal it from us."
"knew……"
Li Ming closed his eyes unwillingly.
