Pengjun discovered that the so-called rope was not a rope at all, but fine flesh threads growing out of the hostess's body!

The strands of meat were twisted into a rope and tied into a knot on the keyhole.

This means that if you want to take the key away, you must cut the mistress's flesh.

The time was almost up, Pengjun sighed, he knew it was impossible to take the key by force.

In desperation, Pengjun could only help the hostess to re-button her clothes and restore them to their original state.

Then he left the master bedroom and closed the door.

In the bedroom next door, Chen Mu heard the door closing and was suddenly awakened from his sleep.

He looked at the time, three in the morning.

"Pengjun, that guy actually dared to go to the master bedroom."

Chen Mu murmured to himself, it seemed that Peng Jun must have some props to help him, otherwise he would not dare to close the door and leave like this.

Chen Mu held his breath, listened to Peng Jun's movements, returned to his room from the corridor, then closed the door and never came out again.

It seems he didn't get the key.

After Pengjun returned to the room, he told Bai Jingjing what happened in the master bedroom.

Pengjun thought that Bai Jingjing would be disappointed and disgusted if he didn't get the key.

Unexpectedly, Bai Jingjing was not disappointed, but comforted Pengjun softly:

"It's okay. At least we found out the key and couldn't snatch it from the hostess. It's a big gain."

Listening to Bai Jingjing's comforting words, Pengjun became more and more convinced that Bai Jingjing was a very good girl.

It’s getting late, and if I don’t go to sleep, it will affect my condition tomorrow morning.

There was only one bed in Pengjun's room. Bai Jingjing had no intention of going back to sleep there. She felt at ease only when the two of them were together.

So, naturally, the two of them slept in the same bed.

Bai Jingjing knows very well that things that are too easy to get will not be cherished.

So she was reserved, used a pillow to block the middle, and slept with her clothes on.

The next morning.

As the sharp alarm sounded, Chen Mu and others were woken up on time.

The four of them packed up, said hello, and headed downstairs.

As he walked up the stairs, Chen Mu smelled a scent of blood.

The four of them looked a little nervous and went downstairs carefully.

In the living room on the first floor, my mother was sitting on the sofa in red clothes with a cold face.

At her feet lay a black body bag.

I saw that the zipper of the bag was not completely closed, revealing the corpse and human head inside.

There is no doubt that the person lying in the body bag is Jiang Xiaoge!

The bloody smell that Chen Mu and others smelled came from the body bag.

Seeing Chen Mu and the others coming down, my mother looked at them coldly and said in a stern tone:

"I told you, don't go to the basement, don't go to the basement, otherwise your life will be in danger!

You didn't listen to me. When I woke up this morning, I smelled blood. When I went downstairs, I saw that there was indeed a dead person.

If you don't listen to me, it will be a real worry to me every day.

Come and help me bury him."

Mom said, pointing to the floor next to her.

There were several shovels on the floor.

Chen Mu and a few others took shovels and, under the command of my mother, carried the body bag into the yard.

In the biting cold wind, Chen Mu and his colleagues used shovels to dig a hole in the lawn.

Then several people carried the body bag together, buried it in the pit, and filled it with soil.

When burying the body, my mother told us to bury it deeper, otherwise it would stink, and then she went in to clean the table.

Several people took advantage of the time alone and began to communicate quickly.

Pengjun first told everything that happened in the master bedroom last night.

After listening to this, Chen Mu couldn't help but frown.

"It seems impossible to steal the key."

Then, Chen Mu also told what happened in the study last night.

After finishing speaking, Chen Mu sighed, "What I am most worried about now is whether this strange mission will be of the 're-enactment' type."

"Re-enactment of the scene?"

Pengjun had never heard of it and looked at Chen Mu curiously.

"Yes. I have encountered this type before." Chen Mu explained:

“For a weird mission of the scenario re-enactment type, generally speaking, something will happen in the weird scene before the player arrives, which serves as the background of the weird mission.

When the player arrives, he will play the role of someone in that incident and re-enact what happened.

If the player cannot find a way to survive, then he will follow in someone else's footsteps and die.

In this strange scene, it is obvious that we play the role of 'son'.

What we are doing now, studying and tutoring every day, is an interpretation of what our son once did.

If we don’t find a way to survive, I’m worried that we might end up dying like our son.”

Bai Jingjing asked, "You mean, we will die the same way our son died?"

Chen Mu nodded, "As the plot develops, we will eventually die like that.

My son died because he failed an exam. We will also die because we fail an exam.”

Peng Jun said doubtfully: "But Jiang Xiaoge is not that dead. He hasn't taken the exam yet."

Chen Mu said helplessly: "What I mean is, follow the plot. If we do nothing and wait for the plot to unfold, we will die.

Jiang Xiaoge went to the basement, which violated the plot arrangement, so naturally he would die in a different way. "

After Chen Mu finished speaking, the players fell into silence.

Bai Jingjing suddenly said: "If that's the case, if we pass the exam, does that mean we can survive?

If you fail the test, you die; if you pass the test, you live. This is the way out of this scenario."

Listening to Bai Jingjing's words, Chen Mu neither nodded nor shook his head.

"I don't know yet what the way out is this time. I haven't seen through it either. Everyone should be responsible for their own decisions."

By this time, breakfast was ready.

The hostess called everyone to come for dinner.

Chen Mu and his companions did not dare to delay. They flattened the pile of earth and buried Jiang Xiaoge in it.

Then everyone returned to the table.

In the warm restaurant, the family sat at the table and had a heart-warming breakfast.

Not far away, buried under the cold grass, was a cold corpse.

This corpse had also eaten in a warm family not long ago.

After breakfast, everyone started a new day of study according to the study process specified by their mother.

After morning reading on the rooftop, everyone returned to their respective rooms to continue studying.

Chen Mu and Xiao Xi lived in the same room, while Bai Jingjing naturally moved into Peng Jun's room.

According to Bai Jingjing, she was a little scared to be alone, so she asked Peng Jun to take her in.

After the two returned to the room, they sat at the table together to study.

Bai Jingjing and Peng Jun flipped through the book even faster.

Based on the discussion this morning, the possible way out is to take the next exam.

No matter what, preparing for the next exam is the most effective action at the moment.

Naturally, the two of them have begun to fight each other.
