Chapter 9 The Key (9) Isn't it normal for you to live or die?
Su Yi, who slept peacefully all night, only felt that he was in good spirits, but as soon as he got up, there was a sharp cry from next door.
Well? Did anyone die yesterday?
Su Yi frowned, and immediately left the room and met with several other people, except for ...... The sisters.
When I opened the door, I was greeted by a very strange picture.
A large cluster of roses bloomed warmly on the bed, and the strange thing was precisely because their roots all grew in a person's body, that is, Wang Jiao, who said before that she had picked the roses.
Wang Yue kept shedding tears on the side, this was the first time she was so emotional.
Su Yi took a closer look, Wang Jiao's skin had dried up, and it was so miserable that only skin and bones remained, as if she had been sucked out of nutrients and turned into a dried corpse.
...... It seems that she was wrong before, this should also be a ghost thing, or a plant that feeds on people or ghost things.
Su Yi only felt that this copy was really in danger, and the one that was eaten was considered to have five ghosts.
When Jing Jing stepped forward to comfort Wang Yue, Su Yi began to carefully analyze the scene.
"There were no wounds on the corpse except for the hole in her chest, and these roses grew from this hole, so she died from sucking all the blood."
"But her expression was very calm, and she should have died in her sleep."
Li Ling stood behind Su Yi and only glanced at the corpse, then lowered his head in fright, listening to Su Yi's analysis in fear.
"Did you hear anything last night?" Su Yi suddenly asked Wang Yue, and his tone was calm.
“...... Yesterday, we couldn't sleep until one o'clock in the morning, but I was so close to her that I didn't feel anything, and I didn't realize it until I woke up in the morning......"
After Wang Yue finished speaking, he began to shed tears silently again.
It can be seen from her words that they didn't feel anything strange yesterday, and Wang Jiao did die quietly.
But it's kind of weird.
She was separated from them by a wall.
"And you didn't hear anything about the goblins who came to my room last night and tried to kill me?"
Hearing this, everyone reflexively looked at Su Yi, who was speaking calmly, and even Wang Yue was so surprised that she forgot to cry.
"Then there's only one possibility—"
As if she didn't see the other people's looks, the girl analyzed it herself.
"It's the ghost of this copy that may pull the player to another dimension when it wants to kill someone, just like the ghost I met the second time, and this should also be a ghost."
"So after encountering ghosts, we may have no other way but to save ourselves."
After Su Yi finished speaking, he felt a little tricky in hindsight.
This copy ...... The mortality rate is too high.
But at the same time, it also shows a good point, that is, the method of clearing the customs must not be too difficult, and it may even be ...... It's obvious.
Looking at the pensive girl, Quiet felt that she was also ...... It's too calm, and I've encountered ghosts three times, and I've been able to escape each time and then analyze their characteristics.
Is this person really a newcomer?
Not noticing the quiet and inquiring gaze, Su Yi found that the time was almost eight o'clock, so he spoke: "Let's go down to the first floor first, and then we will sort out the clues." ”
After everyone else had gone out, Quiet made up his mind and stopped the youth.
"Su Yi ......"
Why are you so calm?
Why is it that only you can escape the attacks of the ghosts?
Why do you know so much?
Isn't it...... I also know how to clear the customs, but I didn't tell them?
There were too many questions swirling in her mind, but with a pair of Su Yi's gentle eyes, she couldn't ask anything.
Su Yi saw the complexity in her eyes and understood that her performance was indeed a little out of place, but she didn't say anything.
If she says it, will they believe it?
After all, Zhang Peng died after listening to her words.
Although she doesn't quite believe her speculation now, sooner or later it can be verified, isn't it?
Ground floor.
All four sat silently in their chairs, each with different thoughts.
At eight o'clock, there was no familiar and strange voice.
"Last night, I killed the imp temporarily, so it shouldn't come now."
In the silence, Su Yi spoke slowly.
Quietly looked at him fiercely, in disbelief, but faintly felt that this girl could really do it.
No one spoke, and their minds had long since turned into a mess after facing the sudden deaths of many people.
They are like a group of people who suddenly fall into the water, at most they can only keep themselves unsinkable, but it is difficult to find a way to save themselves.
After combing through all the clues in his mind, Su Yi began to analyze them one by one.
"The third card, the knife on the left is the murder weapon that killed the imp, and the key on the right should be in the imp's chest."
"Yesterday Zhang Ziran died in front of the mirror, and Zhang Peng died in his seat, but there was a vase in front of him that could reflect his appearance."
"And when I passed by the pool on the fourth floor, it kind of reflected my appearance, so we were all attacked by ghosts."
"So not being able to be shown as you are is the second taboo."
"And the reason why I didn't tell you right away......" Su Yi paused, "I also want to verify it first." ”
"Anyway—believe it or not."
She elongated her tone, her beautiful apricot eyes narrowed, as if they were being shaken by the light, and her clear eyes seemed to float with a layer of damp moisture.
She didn't know what was going on in these people's minds, but as long as they didn't hurt her thoughts, she wouldn't hide it.
The first thing that strikes is silence.
She was first ashamed of Su Yi's last sentence, and then followed her train of thought, and had to sigh that she was really smart.
Almost every time, it was Su Yi who came up with ideas, and every time he analyzed it reasonably, he couldn't accept it.
If it weren't for the fact that people died from time to time, she would have wanted to lie flat and hug her thighs directly.
Su Yi didn't know that someone was secretly poking and trying to lie down, but he looked at the three faces who didn't know anything, and sighed helplessly in his heart.
Feel...... They don't look very smart.
Originally, she thought that Zhang Ziran should have some ideas, although he didn't like her, but he died too quickly, and she didn't even have a chance to cooperate with him.
Even though the little boy's voice didn't sound, the four of them still sat honestly for half an hour, and even Su Yi didn't dare to go to the kitchen.
If she accidentally bumped into it, she wasn't sure she would kill it again so soon.
...... Hey, I knew I had taken out all the bread yesterday, and I miscalculated.
Half an hour passed, and several people left their chairs in unison.
"Well, what are you going to do later?" Wang Yue pursed her lips, a little scared, "Can I join you?" ”
"I ...... it too," Li Ling hurriedly echoed at this time.
Su Yi looked at the two of them...... No, it's the longing eyes of the three people, I don't know how it came to be like this.
"Ahem, my idea is that we've searched the rest of the place, and only the locked room is left, so I'm going to find the key to the room, or find a tool that can force the room open."
The three of them felt that they had given up thinking for themselves, and they all nodded busily.
"Then be quiet, you accompany Wang Yue to the tool room under the stairs to find tools, and Li Ling and I will go to see if there is anything missing."
Su Yi continued to give orders.
"Okay, okay." Respond quietly subconsciously.
In the end, Su Yi still instructed uneasily: "I don't know if there are any other taboos, so everyone must be especially careful." ”
The three of them were all nervous, and nodded obediently.
This time, Su Yi and the others spent half a day, but they found nothing.
They didn't run down until there was a scream from downstairs.
The sound is quiet.
She must have been weak in her legs, leaning on the door frame of a room with one hand, covering her mouth with the other, and her face was pale, as if she was frightened.
It is Wang Yue's room.
"What's wrong...... Su Yi went over to ask, but the moment he looked at the room, he suddenly lost his voice.
“!”
Li Ling, who came with Su Yi, couldn't help but look inside.
With just one glance, his soul was almost gone.
The room was a large area of blood red, and there was blood on the roof, floor, and windows, and the smell of blood was stronger than ever.
In the middle of the room was a lump of meat, so called because it had been chopped into many pieces of meat, and it was arranged in a haphazard manner like a hill.
The most terrifying thing was that there was a familiar head that had been placed on top of the pile of meat.
A pair of eyes stared straight at them, and the corners of his mouth showed a strange smile, as if he was terrified to the extreme, but he had to smile.
There seemed to be a chill in the air, which penetrated into everyone's skin, and people couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
This time is different from every previous one, like venting anger, and like a provocation.
And at this moment, everyone's hearts were disgusted more than afraid.
Su Yi took a deep breath, forced himself to look at it twice, and then looked away.
She was skeptical...... Wang Yue was angered by him.
It was the ghost's resentment against her, and the proclamation of death.
If this is the case, it means that its ability is getting stronger and stronger, and by the third day, it may not be necessary for them to break the taboo again to kill them all.
But if you don't kill it, the one who dies is her, "you live and die", isn't it normal?
At this moment, there was a trace of indifference in the girl's eyes, lining the pair of pupils dark and deep, like the tip of an iceberg finally revealed in the vast sea.
It's just that her right hand clenched unconsciously, and her nails pinched out a few small crescents from her soft palm.
"Let's go down, it should be back."
Su Yi said a word lightly, and then walked towards the stairs without waiting for them to be together.
Quiet felt that her tone was a little strange, but she just thought she was disgusted.
"What's that, Li Ling, let's go too." Quietly suppressed the nausea in her heart, and hurriedly followed Su Yi.
Li Ling was about to leave, but he didn't know what he saw, so he stopped hesitantly, and looked at the pile of meat inside with a struggling look.
