Chapter 115 Getting closer to the truth
"Collective event? Does that mean that all the psychics in this copy must comply?" Ling Yao asked after reading the content that just appeared on the task panel.
He subconsciously looked to the left, and after finding Chu Xichi, he quickly turned to the right.
"Yeah, it's really getting dark. We are female college students, so we should go back to that garbage dump to spend the night." Lou Su said.
"What should we do with this corpse?" Jin Bowen asked, pointing at the flower shop owner's body on the ground.
A few minutes ago, they had just placed the lilies on the rocks by the river when the rain stopped and the florist no longer hid. He rushed out and pointed at them and started yelling.
"You little bastard, you are so brave that you are actually paying homage to that woman. I will tell your drunkard father and have him beat you to death!" In addition to the swear words, this was the sentence the florist repeated the most.
But when Chu Xihen and the others asked who "that woman" was, she kept silent.
Seeing that she couldn't get any information out of them, the flower shop owner went crazy again and wanted to run back to Baihua Town to spread the news that they had brought lilies to the river. Yang Yichen then took out a dagger and slashed her neck.
As long as you don't use special abilities to attack, the NPCs in the dungeon will be just like ordinary people and can be easily killed.
"Let's dig a hole and bury it. Otherwise, if the villagers find the body, we will be in trouble." Chu Xihen said.
Yang Yichen and Jin Bowen had buried a corpse once before at the drunkard's house, and now they were the ones doing it again.
Ling Ji stole a glance at Yang Yichen who was digging a hole with a dagger not far away, and then approached Chu Xihen, "Brother Fox, according to the rules, we have killed the person and avenged him, can we escape from Baihua Town now?"
His mouth was still a little swollen, so his words were a little unclear, and he didn't dare speak too loudly for fear of being heard by Yang Yichen.
"You can't escape." It was Lou Su who answered Ling Ji, "We are not sure whether the female college student's revenge target is the drunkard and the flower shop owner, not to mention that another mission is to protect her boyfriend. So far, we haven't even seen her boyfriend."
"There is also information provided by Bai Jinli. In the real news, a female college student killed all the men in the village. Perhaps this is also our ultimate goal." Chu Xihen added.
"Wow! Kill them all?" Ling Ji's voice became louder as he got excited.
Yang Yichen, who was digging a hole, heard his voice and turned around.
Ling Ji quickly covered his mouth and took two steps to the side to show that he had not said anything just now.
"Brother Fox, I have a message that I haven't had time to tell you yet." He Jia suddenly raised his hand and spoke.
Chu Xihen looked at her speechlessly, "Don't learn from Ling Ji."
He was referring to the fact that he was called Brother Foxy. Even though Yang Yichen had successfully misunderstood Lou Su as the one who had completed the game by using his skill of time travel, Ling Ji still insisted on his opinion and felt that he was the Brother Foxy.
He Jia smiled and said, "I lied to Bai Jinli when I told him I hadn't seen the news. I actually saw it, and I also heard that the female college student killed those villagers just to save her boyfriend, which also echoes our mission."
Chu Xihen asked after hearing this: "Is there any other information? What happened to her boyfriend? Why did she have to kill all the men in the village to save her boyfriend? Did she rescue her boyfriend in the end?"
He Jia shook her head. "I don't know about these. I heard about her killing for her boyfriend from others. To attract attention, the news only said that the female college student was crazy and killed all the villagers."
But based on the information they have learned now, anyone in Baihua Town is more heartbroken than the female college student.
"Bai Jinli said there is another tourist camp. I'm going to make a bold guess. Could that tourist be the college girl's boyfriend?" Lou Su said as he pulled up the task panel and took a look. "Is that the tourist wearing a black duck cap according to the rules?"
"It's very likely." Chu Xihen agreed with his guess, "Because the female college student knows that the villagers in the town are not good people, and her boyfriend will most likely be hurt if he comes here, so she wants to drive him away."
"Come and take a look!" As they were talking, Jin Bowen suddenly shouted.
Ling Ji rushed forward like an arrow shot from a bow.
"Have you found anything? Let me take a look!" After seeing the things in the pit, Ling Ji said "Fuck" and jumped back suddenly.
Jin Bowen teased him, "You can't be that serious, right, Brother Ling? You've killed so many aliens, how can you be so scared by seeing a skeleton?"
Ling Ji patted his chest and said, "I thought you guys had dug up some treasure, but I ended up seeing a skull. How can I not be shocked?"
Yes, there was a skeleton in the pit. Fortunately, Yang Yichen and his team dug the pit with daggers and did not cause any damage to the skeleton.
When everyone saw the skeleton, the mission panel notified them that a side quest had been triggered.
Trigger quest: Find out the identity of the deceased. Lucky psychic, you are getting closer and closer to the truth!
After reading the requirements of the side quest, Chu Xizhi squatted down and examined the skeleton. This was another hobby of hers in the research institute, studying corpses.
"It's a female skeleton, buried here for at least ten years. Her hands, feet, ribs and skull all show signs of damage. She must have suffered a lot before she died, and the head was the fatal injury." After Chu Xichi finished the inspection, he said to Yang Yichen and the others, "Let's dig a new grave. If this is the person the female college student wants to commemorate, she probably doesn't want to be buried in the same grave with this flower shop owner."
Yang Yichen did not object. Although they did not have tools to dig holes, they could use their supernatural powers and they could still dig holes very quickly.
After reburying the skeleton and the body of the flower shop owner, Chu Xihen placed the lilies that had not yet been wet by the rain on the spot where the skeleton was buried, and then everyone bowed in unison.
"Let's go back, it's getting dark." Chu Xihen said.
Due to their delay, it was already dark. Fortunately, they were quick and returned to the female college student's home before dark.
"That's strange. Isn't the female college student afraid that the florist will find out that she went to the river to pay tribute to that woman? Why haven't we completed this mission?" Everyone was sitting in the garbage dump that Lou Su mentioned. Ling Yao looked at the mission panel in confusion.
After he said this, the others also called up the mission panel, and then saw that the side mission was slowly displayed as completed in full view of everyone, and then disappeared.
Everyone: “…”
"What does it mean? If I don't mention it, it won't disappear, right?" Ling Yao became more interested in a side quest.
"Xiao Lingyao, calm down. Maybe the system of this panel is too bad and there is a delay." Chu Xixi comforted him.
Hearing Chu Xizhe's gentle voice, Ling Yao, who had been furious, calmed down instantly.
Ling Ji came to Chu Xihen's side and said, "Brother Fox, let's..."
Lou Su could no longer bear it, and before Ling Ji could finish his words, he rushed to Yang Yichen who was observing the night from under the eaves and shouted: "Yang Yichen, drag your wife away!"
Ling Ji jumped up immediately, "Who is his wife? She is more like my wife!"
"Really?" Yang Yichen's deep voice sounded behind him, "Why don't we go to the room and talk about this problem?"
