Chapter 41 Cat's Home (3)
[Hanyu: Streamer, don't rely on these kinds of people to boost your popularity. If there are too many of these kinds of people, your stream will become tainted sooner or later.]
[Han Yu: Next time you encounter someone like this, just kick them out.]
Lin Chujiu looked at the screen with trust, her tearful eyes making her look exceptionally pitiful.
"Will Hanyu Baby kick for me?"
Before Han Yu could reply, Lin Chujiu continued pitifully, "My live stream is short of moderators, and if you kick someone out as a moderator, I'll see it, so I'll know if you've come or not."
Lin Chujiu looked up at the camera, her big eyes blinking sweetly, like a docile kitten.
"I really hope that Hanyu Baby can come to my live stream more often."
The girl's eyes and nose were a little red, which, combined with her fair skin, made her look like she had just been bullied.
Her voice was soft and gentle, and her big eyes stared at you with such a pitiful look that you couldn't bear to refuse.
Jiang Chaoyu's expression froze on the other end of the screen, then her face quickly turned red.
How can she be so cute? How can she be so cute?
And she looked at him with that kind of gaze...
Even though he knew Lin Chujiu was deliberately trying to get him to back her up, Jiang Chaoyu still couldn't help but fall into the trap.
[Han Yu: Good]
Lin Chujiu forced a big smile and said, "That's wonderful! Thank you, Hanyu Baby, I'll make you a moderator right away!"
As she said this, she stretched her arms excitedly toward the ceiling, looking extremely happy and radiant.
It instantly makes you feel as beautiful as basking in the sun in a flower field in spring.
Jiang Chaoyu looked at Lin Chujiu's big smile and couldn't help but smile as well. But he quickly realized what he was doing and stopped smiling.
But the slight curve of his lips betrayed him.
Lin Chujiu lowered her head, concealing the cunning in her eyes, and quickly set Han Yu as a moderator in the live stream.
[Han Yu kicked him out of the live stream because his mother was no longer alive]
[The female monkey who escaped from Flower Fruit Mountain was kicked out of the live stream by Han Yu]
[Which Chengdu/Nantong team is the strongest? Han Yu kicked them out of the live stream.]
[Congratulations to Hanyu for achieving a triple kill!]
...
This time, Jiang Chaoyu kicked out many people, and although the live broadcast room was a bit quieter, the hostility was significantly reduced.
Lin Chujiu asked the audience who they thought the boss in this dungeon was.
The audience members chattered and offered their answers one by one.
I think it's very likely Yu Xuan. She was killed in the accident and was filled with resentment, so she decided to take the cat with her.
But Yu Xuan died in the same way as Maomao, and Maomao was always a good student at school. Yu Xuan shouldn't have had a motive to commit the crime, right?
Could it be a cat?
[Emm, no way, the cat died too.]
[Hanyu: I think it's very likely something like a car. Both of these incidents involved school vehicles. You need to be extra careful when you travel these next few days, host.]
Lin Chujiu felt that what everyone said earlier was not quite right, but what Han Yu said to her corresponded with what Crazy Dajiba said to her.
Lin Chujiu nodded in agreement and said softly, "I also think it's a car. In the rules, the cat's pitiful cries and the siren's horn are associated with death. The cat was hit and killed by a car, so it would make a pitiful cry..."
As she followed her train of thought, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have discovered some truths!
At the same time, the system notification sounded again:
[The truth has been revealed 50% of the way; please keep up the good work, host!]
Lin Chujiu almost jumped out of bed!
The truth is indeed related to cars and cats!
Jiang Chaoyu observed Lin Chujiu's expression on the other side of the screen and, seeing Lin Chujiu's shock, couldn't help but admire her intelligence once again.
[Han Yu: Have you found out the truth?]
Lin Chujiu nodded excitedly.
"Thank you, babies. I just released part of the truth, which is about cars and cats."
Thank you, everyone, for helping me think of something!
Lin Chujiu's eyes narrowed with joy!
With these two clues, we have two more obvious starting points.
Once you have a clue, finding the rest of the truth won't be so difficult.
Lin Chujiu was somewhat excited.
Jiang Chaoyu took this opportunity to guide her again.
[Hanyu: Have you figured out who was responsible for both of these accidents?]
Lin Chujiu shook her head. "I only know that they are teachers at the school, but I don't know exactly who they are. Both times the car was going very fast, and the school was very tight about keeping the news under wraps."
Thinking of this, Lin Chujiu's mood instantly plummeted.
[Hanyu: There are still three days left in the dungeon. Logically speaking, you can clear it if you survive for another three days. However, based on my experience watching live streams, something will definitely happen in the last three days of the dungeon.]
I suggest you aim for an A or B rank completion; if that's not possible, then consider a C rank completion as a last resort.
Lin Chujiu nodded.
During her vacation from the last instance, she crammed a lot of knowledge about instances and learned about this point.
Although clearing a C-level dungeon doesn't require uncovering the truth or any other additional conditions, on the last day, strange occurrences in the dungeon always erupt and injure people.
To another extent, the horror dungeon largely eliminates the idea of "playing it safe" and encourages players to actively seek out the rules.
Lin Chujiu seemed to be deep in thought. She recalled Xiaobai and Xiaolihua's attitude after Xiaoju's death today and knew that adopting the kitten was probably impossible.
However, she has already gone halfway in uncovering the truth behind the copy, and could consider taking this path.
However, the terrifying escape after all the truths of the dungeons were gathered was truly frightening.
Lin Chujiu still felt lingering fear when she thought about how pathetic she looked when she was chased by the pig demon last time.
"But--"
Lin Chujiu looked at the screen—
"I have one last question."
That's why the kitten mentioned in the rules is always very cautious; it doesn't want to go to certain places and will let out a pitiful cry when it hears a car horn.
Why did Little Orange just stand there blankly in the road today and get hit by a car and killed?
Lin Chujiu's words stumped the viewers in the live stream.
[Good question]
Yes, the kitten is usually so cautious, why would it suddenly go out into the street to die?
[I could believe it if it were an ordinary cat, but the cat mentioned in the rules is clearly very intelligent. How could it not sense the danger of an approaching car?]
The audience was also very confused.
At this moment, Han Yu stepped forward to provide an answer.
The underlying logic behind the "car running over a cat" incident is the imbalance between the cat's stress response and its adaptation to its environment.
The core issue is the imbalance of a cat's survival instinct under stress: when faced with a rapidly approaching vehicle, tension leads to misjudgment, freezing, or turning back, rather than actively seeking death. Essentially, it reflects the physiological and decision-making limitations of small-sized animals in dealing with high-speed threats.
I read this in a book, and it's very similar to your situation.
