Chapter 200 Ferryman's Dungeon (Twenty-three)
Many years ago, Xia Yingnuan entered this game due to an accident.
As her permissions were overwritten, her modified memories gradually returned, and she couldn't stop crying.
When she first entered this game, she was less than 20 years old. At that time, she had just finished the college entrance examination and was admitted to a good university. It was the age when she played and joked with her friends and looked forward to the future, but everything came to an abrupt end because of a madman.
The man didn't want to live anymore, and before he died he wanted to take some innocent people with him to be buried with him, so he drove his car into the most crowded area. Pedestrians who were caught off guard had no time to dodge, and more than a dozen people died tragically under the wheels.
Originally she was one of them, but it was hard to say whether it was good luck or bad luck, she was chosen by the game and got the chance to continue living.
At that time, I was young and didn’t know that the so-called chance of resurrection was nothing but an indefinitely prolonged torture.
To the police, Long Chendong's story of seeing ghosts was naturally absurd and no one would believe it.
Later, they retrieved the surveillance footage of the factory and saw a scene where several grown men were frightened and screaming by a white cloth covering the machine tools.
After seeing the surveillance footage, a police officer named Xia Qing felt that the person in the surveillance footage seemed to have a serious illness.
"By the way, is the Song Qinuan he mentioned the one who jumped off the building ten summers ago? Did Long Chendong do anything wrong? Otherwise, why would he think that someone would come after him?" Police officer Xia Qing thought of the plot in some novels and joked.
The old policeman glared at his junior, and Xiao Xia Qing immediately shut up.
"There are no ghosts in this world. The only ghosts are in people's hearts." The old policeman whispered while looking at the surveillance camera.
Dang Xia was also one of the police officers in charge of Song Qinuan's suicide case. His senior who had been forced to retire told him that there was something wrong with Song Qinuan's case, but someone suppressed the matter and prevented them from further investigating.
The Song family had long since fled abroad with the money. She was a little girl all alone, with no one to seek justice for her, so naturally, the case was covered up without leaving a trace by those with ulterior motives.
Dang Xia's case is a thorn in his side. If possible, he wants to use this incident to find out the truth about Dang Xia!
"Old Wu! Someone is looking for you outside!" A colleague called out to him as he passed by his office.
"Who is it?" Officer Wu stood up and walked out.
"No, it's our deputy director who's receiving the person. He's pretty and should be an important person."
Why would such a big shot want to see him? Officer Wu was puzzled. Could it be that he was here to rescue Long Chendong again?
A trace of disgust flashed across his eyes. He was worried that he would have to bow to reality like his predecessors. Why couldn't an enemy of Long Chendong come to help him?
The old policeman sighed. His intuition had always been accurate, and he didn't even have any hope anymore.
But people make mistakes and horses stumble, and the old policeman's intuition can also be wrong. For example, the distinguished guest in the meeting room this time was not here to save Long Chendong. On the contrary, she wanted to kill him.
Because the president of the Long Group was arrested, everyone in the company was in turmoil. The contract that was about to be negotiated fell through, and the ongoing project almost broke its funding chain. Thanks to the connections left by Long Chendong's father, they were able to stabilize the company while using their connections and gifts to try to get Long Chendong out of this situation.
But they all encountered resistance without exception. Later, after asking around, they found out that it was the person from the Ning family who gave the order.
The disputes between the Long, Ning and Song families could not be finished talking about for three days and three nights, especially Xia Qing's generation. The old guys hoped that if they could use their old face, Ning Hanqi would give them some face. However, after searching for a long time, they didn't even see Ning Hanqi.
Refusing to meet meant there was no room for negotiation. He was too lazy to explain this to others, but his lack of explanation didn't mean Ning Hanqi didn't know.
Ning Hanqi whispered a word, which made Sun Peng's expression change suddenly.
"Did He promise you that if you killed all the other players on your team, you would get a score of over 90?"
After all, he is an old player who has experienced many ups and downs and killed so many people. His mentality and on-the-spot reaction speed are faster than ordinary people. He did not ask nonsense like "How do you know", but suddenly jumped up, and the target of the sharp blade in his hand was Ning Hanqi's neck.
She knew the secret, so she had to kill her immediately! Otherwise, if she got out alive and revealed the secret, her situation would be very difficult!
"Dang!" The weapon in his hand seemed to hit something hard and was bounced away.
"Bang!" He bumped his head against the car body, making such a loud noise but the NPCs still didn't react.
Sun Peng's attack was blocked by Xia Yingnuan, while Ning Hanqi sat there intact, without even a hair out of place.
Sun Peng, who was already seriously injured, almost fainted, but he didn't dare to. Once he fainted, he would be like a fish on the stick, at the mercy of others.
But he didn't know that the moment he got on the car, he had already become a fish on someone else's chopping board.
He changed his posture quickly and became alert, then he discovered that there was an extra "human" figure beside Ning Hanqi.
It's a ghost!
Sun Peng experienced the feeling of cardiac arrest.
He suddenly realized where he lost. Anyone who dared to sacrifice himself to ghosts must be a truly ruthless person. How could he be the soft-hearted and gullible young man he had guessed?
It turns out that there is someone among the players this time who is hiding deeper than himself. If he had known that this player was bound to a ghost, he would definitely not have implemented that plan in this world.
Now I have made myself so miserable, and my plan has failed. It's a huge loss.
Sun Peng quietly took out a prop and hid it behind him to prevent the ghost in front of him from suddenly attacking. As long as he could delay the time until the transmission was over, he would be safe.
But gradually he felt something was wrong. The red-clothed ghost did not make a move, and the player named Ning just looked at him quietly with a meaningful smile on his lips, as if he was looking at a naughty child who was making unreasonable trouble, or looking at a fool with pity.
From the very beginning, the other party was eerily calm, as if everything he did was under her control.
By the way, this person knows a lot, even everything about the legendary administrator... Some things cannot be thought about too much, otherwise you will just imagine more and more things.
For example, Sun Peng even guessed that Ning Hanqi was of the same kind as himself, a player who had also received divine inspiration!
"You...you've also received divine revelation?!" Sun Peng's eyes widened in astonishment. "Are you waiting for me to kill those people and then reap the benefits?!"
Hearing this, he heard the girl laugh out loud, and the female ghost in red next to her also curled her lips in disdain.
"He calls this a divine revelation? How shameless..." Ning Hanqi shook his head slightly and said, "I haven't received any of the divine revelations you mentioned. I only know about this matter because I've encountered a similar situation before."
As long as they are not of the same kind as himself, it will be easy to deal with. There is no need for them to fight to the death. Sun Peng's tense heart relaxed a little.
"You believe his lies..." Ning Hanqi didn't think he deserved pity, but just felt a little sad. Ever since that guy became the administrator, the game has become more and more chaotic.
"That's divine revelation! It was the administrator god who promised me! As long as I clear out the other players in ten games, He will let me pass the game!" Sun Peng suddenly punched the chair with a ferocious look on his face. His hands were severely burned before, and others felt pain when they saw it.
That's right, he killed so many people just to grasp this last hope, but someone told him that it was just a joke by the administrator, which no one could stand. Sun Peng chose not to believe it.
But whether he believed it or not had nothing to do with Ning Hanqi, and she was not interested in explaining the whole story to him. There were bigger "surprises" waiting for him later, so this one was not a big deal.
Seeing that Ning Hanqi had no intention of continuing the debate, Sun Peng gradually suppressed his chaotic thoughts and said, "Let's make a deal. I'll give you the props, and you have to keep your mouth shut about my affairs."
"Aren't you going to try to kill me?" Ning Hanqi's tone made Sun Peng a little unpredictable. Was the other party angry or just teasing him?
"I'll give up after meeting you this time..." He carefully considered his words, "If I run into you again in the future, I'll also give up my plan..."
No matter how much he said or how tempting the conditions he offered were, Ning Hanqi remained unmoved.
"...What else do you want? Just ask directly." Ning Hanqi didn't respond for a long time, so Sun Peng could only let her make the conditions.
"No, I don't dare accept the props you give me. Who knows if it might be another life-saving doll?"
If it was ten summers ago, perhaps someone could still "reason" with Ning Hanqi, but after ten summers, these old guys didn't dare to touch the tiger's whiskers.
Long Chendong is not his biological son, so there is no need for him and Ning Hanqi to fight each other.
After seeking help from all parties to no avail, the heroine fainted in fear and was sent to the hospital. Later, it was discovered that she was pregnant.
Not long after, someone told Ning Hanqi the news.
This was a happy event, so Ning Hanqi immediately went to the detention center to "congratulate" Long Chendong.
Long Chendong understood Ning Hanqi's voice-over and instantly became furious. It took two policemen working together to subdue the male protagonist who was almost going crazy.
Despicable and shameless! Long Chendong looked at Ning Hanqi standing behind his fiancée, his eyes bloodshot. If looks could kill, Ning Hanqi would have been cut into pieces by Long Chendong.
He actually threatened me with his wife and children!
"Ning Hanqi, if you dare to touch them, I will make you pay the price!"
Ning Hanqi never discussed morality with unethical people. She sat on the chair, quietly waiting for the other party to finish his madness before saying, "I don't mean to embarrass Mr. Long. I just want to get some information from you."
Not embarrassed? Who would believe this nonsense?!
etc!
Long Chendong suddenly seemed to understand something, and his expression became a little timid, as if he recalled something terrible.
After a while, he said, "Are you here for Song Qinuan's matter?"
It seems that apart from this reason, Long Chendong could not think of any other reason that would make the other party start a war.
Seeing that Ning Hanqi didn't say anything, he thought he guessed right.
Long Chendong gradually calmed down.
He did not have a good time in the detention center. He had trouble falling asleep every day and was even more afraid of the darkness. It seemed that as long as he closed his eyes, Song Qinuan's ghost would emerge from somewhere.
"Song Qinuan... She turned into a ghost and came back, she came back!" Long Chendong grabbed his hair. Anyone who didn't understand the situation would think he was crazy after hearing what he said.
"I have said everything I need to say. Believe it or not is up to you." He was very sure that he saw Song Qinuan's ghost. Others saw it too, but there was nothing in the surveillance video. He had no way to defend himself.
Ning Hanqi looked at him silently, but his mood was not as calm as his expression.
"I've watched the surveillance video, and there's nothing abnormal in it. Mr. Long, why don't you go to the psychiatric department for an evaluation?"
"I was the only one who saw it and I could say I was crazy, but everyone present saw it!" Long Chendong's forehead was covered in sweat. Everyone said he was crazy, but he was the only one who said he was not crazy! "And..."
"And what?"
Long Chendong suddenly shut his mouth. He looked at Ning Hanqi and gradually smiled.
"Song Qinuan has a secret that she dared not tell until her death. They say that ghosts with obsessions cannot be reincarnated."
He stared at Ning Hanqi who showed no expression, feeling a little nervous but still continued speaking.
"Let my people settle this case, and then give me the project in hand, and I will tell you all of Song Qinuan's secrets. Otherwise, even if my family of three all go to hell, you will never understand why Song Qinuan committed suicide!"
At this time, it was just a matter of who was more ruthless. Long Chendong was gambling on how much Song Qinuan weighed in Ning Hanqi's heart.
After a while, Ning Hanqi suddenly chuckled.
This laugh made Long Chendong shudder.
"You want to leave, and you also want the project I have... Mr. Long is a little too greedy, but it's not impossible."
Ning Hanqi suppressed the mocking look in his eyes. After so many summers, Long Chendong still hadn't made any progress. It was obviously a poisonous bait, but he always took a little more every time.
"As long as your information is enough for this price."
Long Chendong showed a winner's smile, he felt that he had won the bet. By the way, he also had to deal with the little girl that Ning Hanqi was keeping as soon as possible, otherwise if the news leaked out and Ning Hanqi knew the truth about Song Qinuan's death, he would be in even greater trouble.
"Ah Qiu! Ah Qiu!" Xia Yingnuan sneezed twice in the sanatorium.
After thinking about it, cursing and catching a cold, Xia Yingnuan knocked her head to the ground again.
"You scolded me?" Xia Yingnuan was sitting cross-legged on the ground in a very ungraceful manner. The little system was trembling with fear and didn't dare to speak. The man with his head knocked to the ground and bleeding mumbled twice. He wanted to say "I dare not", after all, he was very afraid that this girl would go crazy and kill him.
At this moment, there was a cell phone on the ground in front of Xia Yingnuan. On the screen, there was an unsent message: "I've already arranged the warm-up here, why haven't they arrived yet?"
"You hid quite well. It took me several days to catch you." Xia Yingnuan pulled his hair and pulled his head up, making him look at her. She saw her own reflection in his terrified eyes. It was scary, like a devil.
That day, when she heard that Long Chendong had inserted some people here, she knew something was wrong. During these days, she had tested almost all the staff here before finally catching someone who was trying to send a message to the outside world in this blind spot of surveillance.
"The last person who wanted to do this was buried in the flower bed. What about you? How do you want to die?"
The man who was beaten into a pig's head heard the devil's whispers and was so scared that he almost wet his pants. After all, she was a person who lived in a mental hospital, so whatever she did was normal!
"How could you die so easily? No, you have to come back to life. If you're not alive, my life will be much less fun!" He began to sob again, "If you die like this, I'll really torment your family~"
"You turned her into a tool with your own hands. You've been smart all your life, but how could you be so foolish for just one moment? Now she's completely in my hands."
"Oh, by the way, I also want to thank you." The administrator stared at the black screen, wiped his tears and said with a smile: "Thank you for helping me locate the location of a divine relic. Otherwise, I would not have known that the coward had the audacity to hide a divine relic from me."
Because the image of the dungeon boss as a coward and incompetent was deeply rooted in the ghost's mind, the administrator suspected all the bosses of other ghost dungeons, but he did not suspect that it had hidden something behind his back.
"Since you were able to make use of your remaining energy before you died, I will allow you to die so easily!" He seemed to be particularly generous and waved his hand, then began to perform in this empty space.
He left his seat, paced back and forth rhythmically, even played a little song for himself, and then thought about how to deal with Xia Yingnuan so that he could enjoy the most satisfying revenge.
The administrator, who was almost dancing on the spot, didn't notice that the small word of the previous prompt was flashing, and a series of supplements appeared below this line of words.
