Chapter 9: The Strange Key

Main Mission 5: Prevent the Security Captain from Obtaining the Key (Unfinished)

Rewards: 100 Ghost Points, Campus Map

This task can be regarded as the task that Xiao Chen is most interested in so far.

The first is the "key" mentioned in the task itself, which obviously refers to the one that Xiao Chen saw in the surveillance before that he opened the door of the storage room.

You must know that this key has not been found until now, it stands to reason that Xiao Chen has not left the house since he died, and the key should still be on his body.

The second is the campus map mentioned in the mission reward, although Xiao Chen is already familiar with the terrain of his alma mater, but he knows that this map must have other functions, otherwise it would not be used as a task reward.

Xiao Chen followed Lu Xiaoxi all the way to the outside of the dormitory building, and saw that the security captain was rubbing his hands together, walking back and forth with a restless look.

Lu Xiaoxi stepped forward to say hello to the security captain, and it could be seen that Lu Xiaoxi was still a little timid in his heart, probably because he was a little afraid that the security captain would report him for not going to class during the day.

"What are you looking for me?" Lu Xiaoxi asked in a low voice.

"Come with me." The security captain said, "The people from the logistics department have picked up some things in your building, see if they are yours." ”

It's nonsense when I hear this, because since it was picked up by someone from the logistics department, it should be a logistics person who came to ask, how could it be his turn to be a security captain to ask? And he deliberately only called Lu Xiaoxi out, which is even more suspicious.

However, Lu Xiaoxi didn't think about it so much at all, as soon as he heard that he just let himself claim something, the expression on his face immediately relaxed, and he began to follow the security captain.

However, the relaxed look on his face quickly disappeared, because the place where the security captain took him was not somewhere else, it was the storage room where Xiao Chen died before!

After walking nearby, Lu Xiaoxi couldn't help but ask, "What are you bringing me here for?" Isn't there just someone dead here? ”

"What do the dead have, the corpses have been transported, what else do you have to be afraid of?" The security captain said: "The clutter of the logistics is in this room, you can come in and take a look." ”

Although Lu Xiaoxi looked scared, he still followed the security captain over.

At this time, Xiao Chen saw that the security captain took out a key by himself.

Strange, he already has the key here, so why does the quest remind me to stop him from getting it?

Is it something else? But even if it's two, aren't they all the keys to the same door?

The security captain quickly opened the door, but after opening the door, he didn't go in, but let Lu Xiaoxi go first.

Xiao Chen also quickly leaned to the door and glanced inside, he soon found that there was something wrong with the light here, just like when Lu Xiaoxi was attacked by dark purple insects just now, this room was also covered with a dark filter effect, but Xiao Chen looked around the room, but did not find any traces of insects.

The security captain and Lu Xiaoxi should not feel this dark effect, and neither of them has any special expressions.

Lu Xiaoxi cautiously walked into the house, and at this time, Xiao Chen's attention was completely on the security captain.

The quest prompt said that it was to prevent the security captain from obtaining the key, which means that the key that was on Xiao Chen's body before was probably still untouched in the storage room.

Could it be that this key will be invisible and hide itself? Otherwise, how could the police and the police not find it after two searches in a row?

Now it seems that the security captain is also looking for this key, and he already has one in his own hand, which further indicates that this disappearing key must have something special about it.

In addition, Lu Xiaoxi was deceived by the security captain to come here, which must have something to do with the disappearing key.

It's just that Xiao Chen doesn't understand what help Lu Xiaoxi can do to find the key.

"Did you find anything?" At this time, the security captain asked.

Lu Xiaoxi looked back at him suspiciously and said, "Didn't you want to show me what you picked up?" Why is it now asking me to find something? ”

The security captain found that he was a little out of his mouth, and after coughing in embarrassment, he said: "After the people from the logistics department picked it up, they put it here, I forgot where it was, you can find it yourself, it's a purple key, it may be from your dormitory." ”

"Purple?" Lu Xiaoxi frowned.

Although Xiao Chen didn't know what Lu Xiaoxi was thinking in his heart right now, it was certain that Lu Xiaoxi was more or less suspicious.

"Hurry up and find it!" The security captain's tone suddenly became stern: "Otherwise, I'll tell you the instructor about your sleep during the day!" ”

It seems that the security captain doesn't plan to continue pretending, but this kind of threat is actually far more effective for a timid person like Lu Xiaoxi than soft words.

Sure enough, Lu Xiaoxi immediately rummaged through the house honestly.

He first rummaged around the cabinets, tables and chairs, but found nothing, and finally at the signal of the security captain, Lu Xiaoxi began to lie on the ground and check the wooden floors.

Soon, Lu Xiaoxi's gaze was fixed on the gap in a wooden floor in the corner.

This floor was occupied by the cabinet before, but now the cabinet was moved by Lu Xiaoxi, and this gap was revealed.

Due to the disrepair of the floor, the place has sunk a lot, which means that the gap against the wall is enough to fit a hand.

It was also in this gap that Xiao Chen saw some dark purple light emitting from inside, and this light was exactly the same color as the insects that crawled on Lu Xiaoxi's mouth and nose just now!

Then Xiao Chen discovered something worth noting.

Now this gap has been completely exposed due to the removal of the cabinet, and the light that shines out from the gap is also very strong, as long as you are not blind, then you should be able to see it.

But now Lu Xiaoxi's eyes were immediately attracted by these lights, but the security captain turned a blind eye.

In other words, this light is only visible to Lu Xiaoxi and himself!

No wonder the previous police found nothing!

This Lu Xiaoxi is really famous, as a spirit servant, he can already see some things from the ghost plane when he is alive.

However, Lu Xiaoxi also seems to have a limit on the visibility of these ghost plane items, at least he has not noticed the dark tones in the entire storage room now, and he is not aware of the caterpillars crawling on his mouth and nose before.

"There's something glowing in there." Lu Xiaoxi said honestly.

The security captain's eyes immediately lit up: "Really? What color is it? ”

"Hmm...... Lilac bar. Lu Xiaoxi hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "The key you said will glow?" ”

"Alright." The security captain waved his hand and said, "It's none of your business here, you can go back." ”

"Huh?"

"Don't, let you go, you'll go! But I warn you, don't tell anyone about today's events, or I'll spread the word about your scandal! The security captain said viciously.

"I see." Lu Xiaoxi nodded hurriedly, and then quickly exited the storage room.

After Lu Xiaoxi left, the security captain simply locked the door, and then he himself began to feel through the gap in the corner just now.

At the same time, Xiao Chen also came to the edge of the gap, and found that there was a key with a faint purple light lying in the depths, which was actually quite beautiful.

The captain of the security guard, like a blind man, groped his hand back and forth at the edge of the gap before carefully reaching in.

Although he couldn't see the key itself, according to Lu Xiaoxi's words before, he had locked the location of the key, and it seemed that he was going to find it further by touching.

Xiao Chen nodded silently, this guy really had a lot to do with his death.

Doodle!

The alarm sounded in the system, and Xiao Chen remembered the task that required him to prevent the security captain from obtaining the key.

He didn't have any other good way, so he planned to scare and scare the security captain like he had done before to protect Chen Meng, Xiao Chen took a few steps back and kicked the security captain in the ass a few times.

This guy must have felt the pain, but to Xiao Chen's surprise, the movements in his hands did not stop, and he continued to grab towards the gap, and he was about to succeed!

Damn it! Does this security captain know that he has become a ghost? And I also know that I can't help him?

In a hurry, Xiao Chen fired a few palm mines at the security captain, but they were still useless, feeling that this palm thunder had almost no effect on the living people in reality.

It is also unrealistic to have a physical confrontation with this security captain now, not to mention that at this time, as a ghost, he only has one-tenth of the strength in reality, even if he is a complete living person, Xiao Chen, is actually not the opponent of this five big and three thick security captains.

Worst...... Is the mission going to fail?

I wonder if there will be a penalty after failure......

Seeing that the security captain's finger was less than an inch away from the key at the bottom of the gap! Xiao Chen suddenly heard the same terrible shrill scream he had heard in the teaching building last night suddenly from inside the room.

It's still the same little girl's voice, and this time it's much louder than before.

However, Xiao Chen did not find out where the little girl was.

The security captain seemed to hear the scream, and suddenly turned his head to look around, and finally a frightened expression appeared on his face.

Xiao Chen didn't dare to have any delay, and when the security guard pulled out his hand and looked around, he quickly stretched out his hand into the gap and easily took the key in his hand.
