Chapter 22: A Battle Royale That Ends Before It Starts

"It's not like that! He's lying! Su Mo shook his head frantically: "That ghost kills people without leaving any traces!" ”

"You're not an employee of Unicorn, how do you know his surname is Ma? Why is he also called Manager Ma? Xia Yang turned his head to look at Su Mo.

"The devil said it! That ghost knows Manager Ma! The ghost is working overtime and dying suddenly! I really didn't do anything! Su Mo was really going to cry, he just wanted to live hard, but fate had to push him in a strange direction.

"It's better to control them first." Takamei looked around, habitually looking for ropes and stuff like that.

"You believe me! He's really a ghost, this delivery guy is in the elevator with a corpse, and he wants to kill me! When Manager Ma heard Gao Ming say that he was going to tie him up, as if he was worried about losing his freedom, he shouted and ran towards the safe passage: "You will all be killed by him!" The devil is in him! ”

Crashing through the security door, Manager Ma ran towards the floor where the unicorn game studio was located downstairs.

"Who do you think is a good person? Who are the bad guys? Xia Yang didn't chase after him, and looked back at Gao Ming.

"You keep an eye on the delivery guy first, and I'll explain the situation to everyone." Gao Ming ran down the hallway back to the Nightlight Game Studio, and the staff didn't pay attention to the text messages on their phones.

"Hasn't Wei Dayou come back yet?" Gao Ming looked into the room, there were a few more empty workstations, and there was only one intern left in the office, Wang Qiyi, who stayed honestly: "Why did Li Xie and Zhang Wang run out?" ”

"It looks like I'm going to the bathroom."

"You stay in the office, and when they come back, tell them not to go out again!" Gao Ming took out his mobile phone to make a call, but none of his colleagues' phone could get through: "The playground has four floors, and in addition to the staff of the Night Light Studio, there are employees from other studios, and we want to gather everyone together within an hour!" ”

Gao Ming now doesn't know how many living people are working overtime in these four floors, and although the game gives players an hour of buffer time, it is still quite difficult.

Unable to contact her colleagues, Gao Ming ran to the utility room again, Xuan Wen is a psychological crime serial killer in the love game, she has eyes that can penetrate people's hearts, far beyond ordinary people's IQ and EQ.

With her, she can help Gao Ming a lot.

Pushing open the door of the utility room, Takamei saw a very special scene.

It seems that because Xuan Wen doesn't belong to this game, those shadows are frantically repelling her, trying to drag her into the depths of darkness.

At this time, Xuan Wen's body was entangled in shadows, and the black blood vessels that originally appeared on the skin were buried in her body, and a breath escaped from her body.

"If I hadn't gotten the emotions of those 10,000 people, I might not have been able to play games with you." With bloodshot eyes looking at Gao Ming, Xuan Wen seemed to have survived the most painful stage, and began to get used to all kinds of voices and extreme emotions in her head.

"It's too late for you to wake up, and a new game has been triggered." Gao Ming helped Xuan Wen up, and his palm was a little uncomfortable, because Xuan Wen's skin did not have the slightest temperature, like a dead man: "How do you feel that after you enter the game, you have become a little different from your usual you?" ”

"Don't like it?" There are still a lot of shadows around Xuan Wen: "Didn't you say that it is at room temperature, and it tastes good without ice?" ”

"I'm talking about milk tea."

Gao Ming wanted to pull Xuan Wen out of the shadows, but as soon as his hand reached over, those shadows were like sharks that smelled blood, and they tore towards Gao Ming!

At the critical moment, the chain containing Zhao Xi's memories and obsessions quietly appeared, allowing Gao Ming to avoid being attacked by the shadows.

"Wearing someone else's bracelet is also connected to someone else's blood." Xuan Wen tilted her head and stared at Gao Ming's arm, not knowing what she was thinking.

After leaving the jumping game, Gao Ming carried Zhao Xi's pain and memories, and the chain itself was not a weapon, but more of a bondage.

"It turns out that the blood vessels condensed by Zhao Xi's memory can still be used like this?"

Gao Ming and Xuan Wen worked together, and it took a long time to disperse the shadow covering Xuan Wen's body, allowing her to temporarily regain her freedom.

"Why are these things staring at you all the time?"

"I'm straying from the trajectory of destiny that the world designed for me, and these shadows are correcting mistakes. It should have been because of this reason last time that I didn't enter Zhao Xi's game. Xuan Wen seemed to understand something: "I want to become a person like you, but this seems to be not allowed by the shadow world, and it wants to drag all the city into the shadows." ”

"Let's not talk about that." Gao Ming took out his mobile phone: "Did you receive this text message?" ”

Xuan Wen opened her phone, her mailbox was blank, and the gamers did not include her.

"You're not a living player, are you being placed in the role of a ghost?" One of the situations that Gao Ming is most worried about is that the murderer is Xuan Wen, and Xuan Wen happens to be out of control.

"Why are you so prejudiced against the characters you design?" Xuan Wen slowly approached: "You always speculate about me from the worst angle, do I represent your dark side?" Do you leave it to me what you usually want to do, but don't dare to do? That's why there is a serial killer who commits crimes in his heart? ”

"I asked you a question, how many did you ask me?" Gao Ming opened the door of the utility room: "If it's not you, just hurry up and find the real ghost, we only have an hour." ”

In order to help Xuanwen get out of trouble, Gao Ming took too long: "The monsters in the game seem to have been endowed with some abilities by the unknown world, such as Zhao Xi jumping off the building without dying, and can be immune to physical damage, what is your ability?" ”

"It's an ability that has to do with the human heart, I can see and hear......" Xuan Wen lowered her head in disbelief as she slowly lay on the ground.

"What's wrong?"

"Someone is screaming." The smile on Xuan Wen's face suddenly became strange: "It seems that people sometimes ...... It's no different from a ghost. ”

Realizing that something bad was happening, Gao Ming immediately ran to the nightlight office, and only the intern Wang Mi was still in the room.

"What about the others!"

"I don't know."

With Xuan Wen, Gao Ming came to the elevator again, and Su Mo curled up in the corner alone, his face pale.

"Why are you here?" Gao Ming grabbed Su Mo's clothes: "Did anyone come just now?" ”

"Someone is screaming in the hallway, and the eldest brother who is guarding me has gone downstairs to find someone." Su Mo didn't feel that Gao Ming was a pervert now, he grabbed Gao Ming's arm with both hands: "Brother, I'm really not a ghost!" But I really hit the ghost today! That ghost wants to play us to death, and it's completely psychologically twisted! ”

"You stay here." Gao Ming and Xuan Wen pushed open the security door, and a strong smell of blood came to their faces.

The hour has not yet arrived, and the ghost has not awakened, but someone has already been killed!

Frightened, Gao Ming pushed open the door on the twelfth floor, and the corridor was dead silent.

Then they reached the eleventh floor, where blood stains and signs of struggle began to appear on the ground.

"Someone is taking this opportunity to hunt down other staff!"

The game of ghosts has become a game of people, and the level of gore and horror is even more terrifying than the awakening of ghosts.

There was not a single living person around, only blood.

Pushing open the security door on the tenth floor, a large amount of blood splashed on the wall, and Gao Ming followed the bloody shoe prints on the ground all the way to the vicinity of the prop room of the unicorn game studio.

"The center of the blood is here."

Gao Ming grabbed the doorknob of the prop room, and just as he was about to open the door, the shadow that shrouded this layer began to slowly fade!

The blood stain and stench also faded along with the shadows, as if they were all swallowed up by another world.

"It's game over? Someone killed someone who was possessed by a demon? Gao Ming looked at his phone, it had been only thirty-six minutes since the game started, and he hadn't even done anything yet.

"It's cruel and crazy!" Xuan Wen's hand reached into the shadows: "Obviously, someone is ready to kill everyone except himself in order to escape from the game. He kills the staff one by one, until he is about to be killed by the unlucky ones possessed by demons. ”

Gao Ming was silent, he had been careful of the tricks in the game, but in fact, the viciousness shown by people was even more terrifying.

"First of all, we can be sure of four things, the killer should have experienced other games, so he immediately started acting after receiving a text message and seeing a familiar shadow; Second, the killers are among the survivors; Third, the killer seems to have a little tricky power, otherwise, he would not have been able to kill so many people in a short period of time. Xuan Wen walked in front of Gao Ming: "Fourth, the murderer is not me, we were together at the time of the crime." ”

"I know it's not you." Takamei pushed open the door to the prop room, and the dolls and figures fell to the ground, but the blood stains and corpses were fading along with the shadows.

He rummaged through the house, and finally found only a black and white posthumous photo, which was a group photo of the first working group of the unicorn game studio, they are extremely capable of business, and they are also the most volatile working group in the unicorn game.

"There are seven people in the picture...... Seven living people. ”

Gao Ming's hand holding the photo was a little unsteady, and Xuan Wen grabbed his wrist: "Do you have a sense of guilt?" In fact, what does this have to do with you? You're just a victim, and even if you pay for your crimes, there will be other horrors. ”

"If I die, will the game I designed disappear?"

"No, it won't." Xuan Wen shook her head: "They will all get out of control, and this city will lose its only savior." ”

"You're pretty good at comforting."
