Chapter 149 Hotel Copy (VII)
The supervisor who suffered a loss immediately asked someone to replace the telephone line. This time he personally squatted in the office to guard the telephone line to prevent anyone from cutting the line again!
Xia Yingnuan expressed regret that the small bug she had just discovered was fixed so soon.
It doesn’t matter, she can find an opportunity to try it next time.
Although Ning Hanqi did not receive the call with number *, her supervisor still found fault with her for answering the phone too slowly and gave her a note.
Xia Yingnuan noticed his expression from a distance and sat down next to Xiaoxue. "I just saw Bai Wei enter the underground wine cellar, and then there was no movement inside. Do you want to go take a look?"
She said something half-truthfully, but didn't reveal a single thing about the fact that Bai Wei was deliberately trying to trick her.
This left Liang Yu speechless for a moment.
If the other party accuses Xia Yingnuan of harming Bai Wei, then they will inevitably involve themselves and Bai Wei in deliberately setting a trap for Xia Yingnuan. In that case, they are in the wrong, and Xia Yingnuan is just returning the favor.
However, Liang Yu was more ruthless than Xia Yingnuan thought. He was just a little upset about losing a pretty good tool.
Bai Wei has great attacking power and listens to me very well. After following me for so long, she has also made some achievements.
The key is that she is considered to be good-looking in the game and can occasionally relieve my desires.
But that was all, the lamentation only lasted a few seconds and then it was over.
If you lose one tool, you still have many more.
"No need. If she could come out, she would have come out long ago."
Liang Yu's words were not vicious, but the look he cast on Xia Yingnuan seemed to be poisonous.
He admitted that he had underestimated this woman before, and he would not let Xia Yingnuan continue to jump around for too long, but he would plan better this time.
"Did you activate the special side quest?"
Liang Yu quickly calmed down and turned his attention to the side quests.
The remaining Xiaoxue and Li Shuai also looked over.
There was no resentment in their eyes, but rather they seemed a little nervous because of Liang Yu's question.
It seemed that he was worried that Liang Yu would use some forceful methods to pry the information he wanted from Xia Yingnuan.
"no."
Xia Yingnuan gave a negative answer without much thought.
His face appeared calm and he didn't even blink.
Nonsense. At this time, I can only say that I don’t have it anymore and cannot directly engage in a head-on conflict.
Fortunately, there were only these three people present, and besides her, there was another person who was alone, so there was room for argument.
Liang Yu actually didn't quite believe that Xia Yingnuan had such great ability.
While taking the trouble to kill Bai Wei, he also activated a special side quest.
If the other party has this ability, he must be a player on the list, and I should know him.
Xia Yingnuan is so iconic, but I have no impression of her.
Either the opponent was a new player, or she was not that powerful, and she killed Bai Wei just by chance by taking advantage of the lethal rule of the castle.
It is impossible for a new player to realize that he has used props on her as soon as he enters the game.
So Liang Yu weighed the pros and cons again and again and felt that it was unlikely that she was lying. He just thought that she was lucky and used the rules to kill Bai Wei.
The activated special side quest should have nothing to do with her.
He snorted, as if agreeing with Xia Yingnuan's answer, and had no intention of paying any more attention to her.
Xiaoxue and Li Shuai also breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Xia Yingnuan say this.
At this moment, there was some movement on the stairs, and the last lone man with a crew cut slowly walked into the living room.
"Cui Zhongming," Liang Yu spoke first, "What is the special side quest you activated?"
Liang Yu and the man with the crew cut should know each other, but his tone of voice was not warm and he called the other person by his full name.
Cui Zhongming was accused before he could even open his mouth, and a look of displeasure flashed across his brow.
But Liang Yu misunderstood this slight change, thinking that the other party did not want to admit it.
"Don't try to deny it. When the announcement was made, the two of them and I had been sitting in the living room for quite a while," Liang Yu pointed at Xiaoxue and Li Shuai opposite him.
Then he gestured at Xia Yingnuan with his chin, "She was fighting Bai Wei at the time and didn't have much time to spare. You were the only one left, alone. Do you still want to deny it?"
Xia Yingnuan couldn't figure out Cui Zhongming's temper, but from her observations from yesterday until now.
The other party was not someone who would take the initiative to get involved in these disputes, and Xia Yingnuan always felt that he did not come just to complete the game.
Liang Yu spoke too quickly. By saying this, didn't it make it obvious that there must be someone between him and Cui Zhongming?
There is really no good way now. If the other party denies it, I can only grit my teeth and deny it and fool them for now.
Everyone turned their heads to look at Cui Zhongming. Xia Yingnuan didn't want to appear too guilty, so she also looked away.
She has never done such a thing of wrongly accusing anyone.
Although he couldn't show anything on his face, he still felt a little guilty.
It happened that Cui Zhongming heard what Liang Yu said and glanced at Xia Yingnuan, wondering what he was thinking.
"It's me," he answered affirmatively. Without waiting for Liang Yu to speak, he said directly, "This special side quest is mine alone. Don't touch it. If anyone gets in my way, don't blame me for being harsh."
Li Shuai and Xiaoxue had no such idea at all. They had already stood up and left when Cui Zhongming opened his mouth.
When Xiaoxue left, she actually wanted to pull Xia Yingnuan along.
But she noticed that Xia Yingnuan had no intention of leaving. Thinking that the other party's ability was much stronger than hers, and naturally she was interested in this task, she did not stop the other party.
However, Liang Yu's face fell after hearing the other party's blatant threat.
"Don't think I don't know what you want to do in this game? If you want to take on this mission alone, you have to see if you have the appetite for it."
Liang Yu's injuries had not yet healed, so he just showed off his power with a few words and did not dare to confront Cui Zhongming head-on.
He would not even suspect that the other party was lying, but would just stand up and leave cursing.
Xia Yingnuan sat there without moving. Although Cui Zhongming took the blame for her, there was no obvious relaxation on Xia Yingnuan's face.
If someone shows you kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.
Xia Yingnuan understood this principle, and Liang Yu's words just now also reminded her.
Cui Zhongming has always been indifferent to the matter, but offline he took the initiative to admit that he was the one who activated the special mission. It is obvious that he wanted to do Xia Yingnuan a favor.
The other party's abilities and skills were inferior to Xia Yingnuan. Apart from the clue in her hand, Xia Yingnuan really couldn't figure out why he wanted to help her.
As expected, as soon as Liang Yu disappeared from the living room, Cui Zhongming sat down opposite Xia Yingnuan.
"Special missions are always quite difficult, so having more people means having more help. Besides, I just helped you, so how about we work together?"
Wow, you play the tactic of using courtesy first and then force very well.
On the surface, they seem to be friendly, but in reality, they are just short of unilateral forced cooperation.
"OK,"
Xia Yingnuan seemed to have made the decision long ago, and she took out the hairband from her pocket without even waiting for Cui Zhongming to persuade her a second time.
"Did you know that Bai Wei killed a player in the wine cellar yesterday?" Before Cui Zhongming could react, Xia Yingnuan briefly explained the situation.
"I found a headband in the wine cellar. As soon as I got it, a special side quest was triggered. The task is to fulfill the last wish of the headband's owner."
In fact, Xia Yingnuan doesn’t mind having more helpers to explore the way for her at this time, and Cui Zhongming is a perfect fit.
After all, the difficulty of the mission has been upgraded, and the system also reminds you that special missions only need to be completed before the copy is cleared.
In other words, there are not many clues about the special mission, and it is possible that the clues will be gradually revealed as the copy plot unfolds.
Even if she told Cui Zhongming the truth now, he would not be able to complete the task in a short time.
So she didn't hide it on purpose, and spoke very frankly.
Cui Zhongming, on the other hand, was not sure whether Xia Yingnuan was fooling her or really wanted to cooperate with him.
If she said that the other party was trying to fool her, she was clear and concise in her language, without any unnecessary nonsense, and she also produced evidence.
But if the other party really wanted to cooperate with her, she had too little time to consider it. It seemed that she had been prepared for this kind of mission long ago. The higher the risk, the higher the reward.
For ordinary players, if it is difficult to complete the task, they will refuse to cooperate with the attitude that if they don’t have it, no one else can have it.
But Xia Yingnuan agreed so readily, which made him suspicious.
Cui Zhongming didn't say anything for a long time, with a frown on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking.
However, the 0 still shining brightly above his head seemed to have demonstrated his attitude.
Xia Yingnuan's patience was about to run out, so she tapped her fingers on the table twice to attract the other person's attention.
"Want to cooperate? I've already got some clues and want to go and verify them. Do you want to come with me?"
Her tone was very casual, as if she would stand up at any moment, and she just asked a follow-up question. She didn't care what Cui Zhongming's answer was.
But in fact, Xia Yingnuan still hoped that he would go with her.
After all, it was broad daylight, and the shadow was still trapped in the wine cellar. The only two people who were trustworthy enough to use their skills were no longer by her side.
Xia Yingnuan only had a shawl that could withstand one damage, and no offensive weapons.
If you encounter any problems during this process, you can only run away and not fight.
Her physical strength is not good, so taking Cui Zhongming with her would undoubtedly be an extra insurance, so why not do it?
"What are you looking at? What did you find?"
This was equivalent to a disguised agreement. Whether it was true or not, Cui Zhongming had no way to confirm it offline, so he had to decide to follow Xia Yingnuan to see the situation first.
And she didn't expect that Xia Yingnuan would get a clue so quickly.
Xia Yingnuan grabbed the hairband in her hand and waved it, looking at Cui Zhongming with disdain. "Didn't you notice? This hairband is the same style as the one the maid used when she brought the doctor here this morning. It's just the color that's a little different."
Although Xia Yingnuan didn't say it explicitly, her eyes revealed it.
This tool seems to be out of place.
This guy's concentration is really bad. Could it be that everything he said to Liang Yu just now was just a bluff and he was just a paper tiger?
This was the first time Cui Zhongming was questioned, but he was speechless.
Why the hell should I pay attention to the style of the headband on a nameless NPC's head?
Ning Hanqi paid more attention to the billboard in the hotel lobby when she passed by it. It was promoting some event that xxx was coming to the hotel. She glanced at the time and it was July 19th four years ago.
There was a hint of coldness in the smile on her lips. She was originally thinking about what to do with the extra corpse, but now she didn't have to worry. When the old man was about to take the elevator, Ning Hanqi asked the old man to take the employee elevator inside the emergency exit with her on the grounds that employees could not take the guest elevator.
She behaved like a player who only knew how to stick to the rules. The old man did not become suspicious, nor was he afraid that the prey would make any waves in his territory, so he stepped into the safe passage first.
"Bang!"
There was a slight collision sound in the safety passage. Less than two minutes later, Ning Hanqi came out in a black coat. A closer look revealed that her clothes were stained with a lot of unknown liquid. She pushed the food cart away, and her fair hands were covered with black and red blood.
