"Finally, there's something to eat?"
Yi Xiang stretched and yawned. He had been hungry all night and all morning, and it was indeed time to eat something.
However, when he saw the basket full of fruit, his expression turned strange.
These fruits must be plants, no matter how you look at them! Given the restrictions of the first rule, he dared not eat these things.
"Alice, is this all there is to eat?" Yi Xiang persisted, "For example, is there any meat or anything like that?"
"Huh? Big brother, where am I supposed to find meat for you?" Alice shrugged helplessly. "It's good enough that we can find these fruits around here. Besides, I've always eaten these fruits to fill my stomach. Don't worry, they're not poisonous."
Was he worried about poison? Poisoning might not necessarily kill you, but breaking the rules is basically a death sentence!
Yi Xiang ultimately dared not gamble and could only push the basket away, saying, "Forget it! I won't eat!"
I was originally planning to survive until the third day and collect a quarter of the reward before stopping, but without food, that might be difficult. I'm afraid I'll become too hungry to think clearly and be able to deal with certain dangers.
So let's just tough it out today, get some sleep, and leave tomorrow morning.
"Eat something, big brother! If you don't eat anything, you'll starve to death!"
"Don't worry about me, I'd rather starve to death."
Relying on Xiang's absolute principle of "playing dumb" and his absolute refusal to do anything that might violate the rules, Alice's eyes dimmed slightly: "Well, okay then."
She took out the fruit from her basket and took a big bite.
Neither of them spoke again.
"Bro, isn't it a bit creepy of us to just barge into a girl's bedroom like this?"
"I've been watching all night, so a little more won't make a difference. Besides, even though you say that, you're quite skilled at opening the door!"
"Ahem, after all, we can't let any clue slip by!"
Aransta burst into Alice's bedroom. In the daytime, the dolls didn't seem as creepy as they were at night, but their eyes were still fixed on him.
He opened the cabinet that Arceus had mentioned, having mentally prepared himself to see several bloody heads, but what he saw upon opening the cabinet was not like that at all; there were only several clumps of red cotton.
"Brother, are you sure you didn't see it wrong last night?"
“It is indeed a bit suspicious, but I still trust my eyes. Take these cotton balls out and let me see!”
The netizens from the White Eagle Kingdom weren't particularly interested in this world event to begin with. They finally sent their SSS-level fighters out, but they still chose to stay in the cabin. It was really boring.
However, Aransta's actions caught their attention. Could it be that he stayed not because he was afraid of death, but because he had made another discovery?
Soon, Aransta pushed aside the red cotton, revealing a human skull. Aransta quickly removed all the cotton, leaving only a pile of bones in the cabinet!
"!!! This little house looks unusual! Why are there human bones here?!"
"Oh no! What looks safe may not be safe. Those who choose to stay may have made a smart choice, but they might still be in danger!"
"Haha, I'm very curious about the expressions on the faces of the leaders of other countries right now."
The live chat exploded with comments, but Arceus was pondering a question: yesterday he had seen a complete head, so why was there only a skeleton today? Alice hadn't opened the cabinet at all; this had happened right under his nose, so there couldn't be any mistake.
It has lost its flesh and blood, and gained cotton instead.
After discovering the human head, Arceus didn't pay any more attention to these things in the latter half of the night. If these cottons were transformed from flesh and blood, then this room could truly be described as terrifying upon closer inspection.
"Brother, what else did you discover last night?"
"There is a basement at the bottom of this room, but it is protected by the power of the rules, so I can't go in yet. The location is under the bed."
Aransta lay on the floor, the eerie doll under the bed staring at him. From this angle, there was indeed a hidden door under the bed!
What could possibly be in Alice's basement?
After the discovery of the skeleton in Alansta, other countries also instantly realized the danger Alice posed. It would be great to survive the third day here and get the full 1/4 of the reward, but if something goes wrong along the way, you won't get a single point!
Therefore, observers from various countries immediately used their first hint opportunity to alert their own ghost story writers. Coincidentally, one ghost story writer had just finished his first night. Upon hearing this hint, he chose to leave the world without hesitation!
You are temporarily unable to leave the world.
Panic slowly eroded his mind!
"Stop sending out ghost storytellers immediately! This world is a trap, a trap that devours people without spitting out the bones!"
Yi Xiang broke out in a cold sweat. According to the observer's tip, this little girl was far from being as harmless as she looked; on the contrary, she was an extremely dangerous person!
He subconsciously moved a few steps away from Alice. Alice seemed to notice this movement. Fearing that he would give himself away, Yi Xiang could only return directly to the cabin.
what to do? !
It's already noon. If he leaves here, Yi Xiang can't guarantee he'll be able to find the Lost City. When the night storm comes, he'll definitely need to use this little house to take shelter!
As long as you stay here, you'll inevitably come into contact with Alice, and who knows what might happen during that time!
"Phew—as long as things are like yesterday, everything should be fine, right? Alice didn't attack me yesterday, did she? Maybe it's just a little quirk of hers. After all, this is a ghost story world, I can understand, I can understand..."
Who would collect human bones?! And even if someone wanted to collect them, where would these bones come from?!
"Big brother, are you afraid of me?"
Alice walked into the cabin, which startled Yi Tuoxiang. He could only force a smile and say, "No, no! Why would I be afraid of you?"
“Big brother, when someone is extremely nervous, their lies are really not credible.” Alice shook her head. “Are you trying to run away? You said you were going to stay this morning, you really don’t keep your promise.”
"Why are you all like this? Mom and Dad, brother and sister, am I some kind of terrifying monster? Why do you all have to leave me? Oh well, it doesn't matter anymore."
Alice smiled with a hint of ecstasy. Thin, gleaming strings floated through the air, like—a marionette.
"Big brother, how about I turn you into a doll and keep you with me forever?"
