As Chi Mu walked into the gate of the ancient castle, a cool breeze blew towards him, making him shiver.
"There were more than twenty Chosen Ones when I came here, and now I am the only one left in the castle..."
A feeling of loneliness came over Chi Mu, and he felt a little lost.
He has experienced a lot since he became the Chosen One of Dragon Kingdom.
The truth behind some copies is sad, some are horrifying and weird, and some copies make Chi Mu see too many people in desperate situations and the extinction of humanity.
He seemed to gradually understand the true meaning of the world of ghost stories.
"Chi Mu, you are so mean. You knew that the housekeeper was the special chosen one, but you still left me there alone."
Just as Chi Mu fell into heavy thoughts, Li Xin's voice came from behind him.
He turned around in surprise and found Li Xin with messy hair appearing behind him, with blood on his hands.
In her hand she held the blood-stained freedom token.
"You... actually came back alive?!"
Chi Mu was shocked. He thought the butler would choose to attack Li Xin in the lighthouse, but looking at her current appearance, it seemed that she would take care of the butler in return?
Li Xin straightened her messy hair and smiled miserably: "Haha, of course... I can't die in this damn place yet, I have more important things to accomplish."
After that, Li Xin walked to Chi Mu and continued, "I have accumulated 20 free points now, let's get ready to leave here."
Chi Mu looked at Li Xin with a complicated expression. Just when Li Xin was about to leave, Chi Mu stopped her.
"Hey, you said before that if I could survive to the end, you would tell me some information about the rules and strange stories... Now, isn't it time for you to tell me?"
“That’s what I had planned before, but considering that you just left me there alone, if I hadn’t been prepared, I would have been killed by the butler and all my freedom would have been taken away.
So, I don’t want to tell you now.”
Li Xin glanced at Chi Mu and continued walking forward.
"Squeak~"
At this moment, the gate of the castle was pushed open again. Chi Mu and Li Xin looked towards the gate at the same time and found the butler with blood all over his head standing there panting.
The butler at this moment had long lost his usual elegance, and his black tuxedo was covered in blood and dirt.
Looks very embarrassed.
The housekeeper had a ferocious expression on his face. He stared at Li Xin viciously and said, "Give me back my freedom!"
"You're not dead yet?"
Li Xin was very surprised. He didn't expect that the butler was not only alive, but also tracked back to the castle so quickly.
"How could I possibly die? I am the winner of the Ghost Story Prison Garden. How can a latecomer like you be qualified to pass?"
"I have studied this place for such a long time. I know every detail of every ghost story game by heart... As long as I can win, I will become the manager of the Ghost Story Prison Garden!"
The butler's expression became more and more ferocious. He dragged his injured leg and walked towards Li Xin.
Chi Mu was a little surprised when he heard what the housekeeper said.
As he had guessed before, the butler was the first chosen one to arrive at the Ghost Story Prison Garden, and he had been studying here alone for a long time.
I have studied all the rules and ghost story games here.
The butler pretended to be the manager of the Ghost Story Prison Garden from the beginning, and it seemed that his purpose was not just to accumulate 20 freedom points.
There is another reason, the butler wants to become the real manager of the Ghost Story Prison Garden!
“I admit that your planning ability is very strong and you fooled everyone at the beginning.
Unfortunately, you underestimated the power of "Unspeakable". In the weird game "Different Things", the contents on the cards all hinted at your identity.
You will never be able to be the manager of this strange prison garden, so die in peace."
Li Xin smiled contemptuously, pulled out a knife from his waist, and planned to make a final break with the housekeeper.
Seeing this scene, Chi Mu walked silently to the second floor.
Because if he didn't leave here, Li Xin would kill the housekeeper and it would violate the rules of the ghost story.
[2: It is forbidden to kill other Chosen Ones in public, otherwise you will be arbitrated by the Executive Officer.]
A long time ago, Chi Mu understood the meaning of "common occasions" mentioned in the rules.
As long as there is no third party present, it is not considered a public place.
After leaving the first floor, Chi Mu sat on the stairs to the second floor waiting for Li Xin and the housekeeper to end their feud.
In fact, there are only three chosen ones left now.
According to the principle of conservation of freedom mentioned by the butler, it is entirely possible for all three of them to leave the Ghost Story Prison Garden alive.
However, the butler did not participate in the ghost story game as a normal chosen one from the beginning, resulting in a lot of free points being stuck in the prize pool and unable to flow out.
Chi Mu guessed that as long as these free points were in the prize pool, they could only be obtained by participating in the ghost story game.
Therefore, the free points that were left outside were only enough for two chosen ones to leave the Ghost Story Prison Garden.
"I don't know if Li Xin will be killed by the butler. After all, the butler is a man. If they fight head-on, Li Xin will probably lose, right?"
Chi Mu smiled bitterly.
If Li Xin really survived, he would ask Li Xin everything she knew about the world of ghost stories.
Although it seemed that the butler knew more, it seemed that the butler was not worth communicating with at all. Chi Mu felt that it was impossible to get any information from him.
Not long after, Chi Mu heard bursts of noise coming from downstairs. It seemed that Li Xin and the housekeeper had already started fighting.
——"Why do I feel like Chi Mu is not in the right state? He can obviously leave the Ghost Story Prison Garden now, so why is he sitting here waiting?"
——"I guess he wants to see who will win between Li Xin and the housekeeper?"
——"No, I think Chi Mu might want to get information about the world of ghost stories from Li Xin."
At this time, Chi Mu's reluctance to leave the Ghost Story Prison Park attracted the attention of many countries on Blue Star.
.......
After a long time, the sound from downstairs finally disappeared.
Chi Mu knew that the winner was decided by the two of them.
He stared at the stairs and soon heard heavy footsteps coming upstairs.
"Who is the last survivor?"
Chi Mu murmured, and the figure of a survivor appeared at the stairs. After seeing the survivor, Chi Mu's pupils suddenly contracted.
A look of surprise appeared on his face.
