Chapter 48 Tearing Name Tags 3
Luo Qing's heart skipped a beat. She turned her head and saw a familiar figure rapidly approaching them. It was her teammate, Mo Ming!
Mo Ming was dressed in a black tracksuit, with a sly smile on his face.
He saw the standoff between Luo Qing and the woman and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.
"Luo Qing, do you need any help?" Mo Ming asked jokingly, while his steps continued as he approached the two of them step by step.
The young woman's eyes flashed with fear when she saw Mo Ming suddenly appear. She struggled to escape Luo Qing's grasp, but it was too late.
Luo Qing breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Mo Ming's arrival. She knew that with Mo Ming's help, eliminating this woman would become much easier.
Just as Luo Qing and Mo Ming worked together to tear off the girl's name tag, the system's countdown ended.
The woman's body vanished the instant her name tag was torn off, leaving only a wisp of smoke drifting in the air.
[Beep—Girl No. 11 has been eliminated by players Luo Qing and Mo Ming.]
Luo Qing and Mo Ming exchanged a glance, and both of them showed satisfied smiles.
They knew that the girl's elimination meant they were one step closer to victory.
Just then, the piercing alarm suddenly stopped, and the red lights slowly went out.
The stadium returned to silence, leaving only the two of them standing on the third-floor floor, with the empty space and bright lights behind them.
Luo Qing held the mysterious box she had found earlier, her eyes sparkling with determination and anticipation.
She turned to Mo Ming, shook the box, and said with an undeniable determination, "We need to find the box with the button inside."
Mo Ming nodded without asking any further questions. He knew that the previous counterattack was definitely related to this box, so he turned around and ran deeper into the stadium.
His figure disappeared quickly under the lights, leaving only the echoing sound of his footsteps in the empty space.
Luo Qing also quickly left the third floor. Her steps were light and firm, as if an invisible force was propelling her forward.
She walked through the empty stadium, her eyes darting around, searching for the mysterious box.
Luo Qing left the stadium and walked all the way to the office building, which looked even more solemn under the cover of night.
Luo Qing's heart was pounding in her chest. She took a deep breath and pushed open the door of the office building.
Inside the door was a spacious hall, where rows of desks were neatly arranged under dim lighting, as if quietly awaiting her arrival.
Luo Qing's footsteps echoed in the empty hall as she cautiously looked around, searching for the mysterious box.
Suddenly, her gaze fell on a desk drawer.
The drawer was slightly ajar, as if gesturing to her. Luo Qing's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly walked over and gently pulled open the drawer.
Sure enough, there was an identical box inside.
Luo Qing picked up the box with trembling hands, a strange excitement welling up inside her. She carefully opened the box, her expectant gaze falling upon its contents.
However, when she saw what was in the box, a wave of disappointment washed over her.
There was no mysterious button in the box as she had imagined, only a simple card with a large "empty" written on it.
Luo Qing was stunned, and the box in her hand seemed to become incredibly heavy.
She stared blankly at the small card with the word "empty" written on it, her anticipation and excitement vanishing in an instant.
She looked around unwillingly, hoping to find the mysterious button in the drawers of other desks.
However, she was disappointed; each box she found contained only a small card with the word "empty" written on it, as if mercilessly mocking her expectations.
Luo Qing felt a wave of frustration wash over her. She leaned against her desk, sighed softly, and headed to the next office area.
Luo Qing's footsteps echoed in the empty office area, her mood as heavy as the dim lighting. Each drawer opened felt like a cruel blow to her expectations.
Suddenly, she stopped in front of an office door. The door was ajar, letting in a faint sliver of light. Luo Qing hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open and entered.
The office was quiet, with only the soft glow of a desk lamp.
Luo Qing's gaze fell on a box on the table. She felt that the box was a little different from the previous boxes.
She walked to the table and carefully picked up the box.
The box felt heavy in her hands, as if it carried some important mission. She took a deep breath and slowly opened the box.
The next second, she was pleasantly surprised to find that there really was a button in the box!
That button was a little different from the previous one; it was round, small and exquisite, with gold trim that emitted a faint glow.
Luo Qing's fingers gently touched the button, feeling a cool sensation.
She took a deep breath, a surge of inexplicable excitement welling up inside her. She stared at the button, as if she could see the dawn of victory.
Luo Qing was about to press the button without hesitation.
The system notification sounded the instant her fingertip touched the button.
[Ding—Congratulations to player Mu Qimeng for finding the counterattack button. The player team will have two minutes to counterattack. Tear off the girl's name tag to eliminate her.]
[Countdown 3-2-1-Start!]
Luo Qing's spirits instantly lifted; she felt as if she had grasped the key to turn the tide, her eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation.
She quickly put away the button in her hand, carefully hid it in her pocket, and then turned and ran towards the office building's door.
The office building under the cover of night resembled a silent castle, with only Luo Qing's footsteps echoing in the empty hall.
Her heart was pounding in her chest, filled with an indescribable mix of excitement and nervousness.
She walked through the dimly lit corridor, pushing open office doors one by one, searching for the women.
Luo Qing suddenly stopped in her tracks. Her ears caught a clear, crisp bell sound that echoed in the empty office building.
A surge of joy filled her heart, and she immediately crept quietly in the direction of the sound.
At the end of the corridor, a faint light shone through a half-open door. Luo Qing approached gently, and through the crack, she saw a graceful figure.
She was a young woman wearing a red dress, with a string of tiny bells hanging not only from her ankles but also from her hair, swaying gently with her movements and making a pleasant sound.
Fang Tai was hiding under the table next to her.
Luo Qing's heart tightened suddenly. She pressed herself against the door, barely daring to breathe.
Her gaze was fixed on the red figure, her heart filled with anticipation and nervousness.
Suddenly, the woman moved; she turned gracefully and walked in the opposite direction of the table.
Upon seeing this, Fang Tai immediately crawled out from under the table and reached out to grab the woman's name tag.
Just as Fang Tai's hand was about to touch the woman's name tag, the woman suddenly seemed to sense something and stopped in her tracks.
The young woman reacted quickly, dodging the attack and giving Fang Tai a coquettish glare before smiling gently. Her smile was as bright and captivating as the most dazzling star in the night sky.
"Oh dear, brother, why are you like this?"
She turned gracefully, her skirt fluttering with her movement like a blooming flower.
