In the morning, Song Guicheng was awakened by a hoarse scream.

He climbed out of bed sleepily and found that Shi Sui and Xu Chongchuan had already rushed out, so he followed them out.

The scream came from the outermost room. Before he entered, he smelled a strong smell of blood. The smell stung his nose and made him sober up.

He was stunned for a moment, then walked in slowly.

"Sure enough." Shi Sui said softly as he looked at the scene on the ground.

Sure enough what?

However, when Song Guicheng saw the scene in the room clearly, he was so shocked that he subconsciously took two steps back.

The floor of the room was covered with blood, which spread from the bathroom to under the bed, and some of it had solidified into a dark brown solid. The walls and wooden boards near the bathroom were covered with bloody scratches and fingerprints, showing signs of a violent struggle.

His gaze drifted towards the two girls who were shivering in each other's arms on the bed. One was Chen Qiao and the other was Miao Mingjie.

Ye Yiru is missing.

Just as he was shocked, other people also came over one after another. When Xu Lan saw the scene in front of her, she covered her mouth and rushed out.

Che Wen's tone was very calm: "He's dead."

Manlong walked forward and stood next to Song Guicheng. He squatted down and carefully looked at the blood on the ground: "Well, he is dead."

He acted as if he was used to this kind of thing.

Xu Chongchuan opened the closed bathroom door and was hit by a strong fishy smell, which was nauseating.

Song Guicheng raised his eyes and looked inside. With the residual light in the room, he could see the body of a woman wearing a white top and blue jeans lying on the ground with her feet facing the door, blood constantly oozing out from under her body.

Looking up, his eyes suddenly widened, because the head of the corpse was missing, the skin and flesh at the junction of the neck and head were torn, and the tibia was broken.

It looked like someone had ripped the head off its neck.

Yang Jie held Yi Xiaoting by her side and swallowed fearfully: "Where's the head?"

I don't know who she was asking, and no one answered her.

"How could she be the one in trouble?" Manlong showed doubt on his face and glanced at Qu Jiabao who was hiding at the back without any expression.

Song Guicheng frowned slightly, thinking of the strange smell that Ye Yiru mentioned to him that night.

He walked over to the bed and asked the remaining two of them, "What happened last night?"

Miao Mingjie had not yet broken free from her fear. She wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and kept shaking her head: "I, I don't know, I don't know anything. She is dead, how could she die, I don't know..."

She was so frightened that she was a little unconscious. Song Guicheng didn't want to stimulate her any further, so he turned his gaze to Chen Qiao who seemed calmer next to her.

Chen Qiao clutched the corner of the quilt in her hand and answered tremblingly: "We went to bed early last night and saw it when we woke up."

Song Guicheng: "Did Ye Yiru show any abnormality before going to bed yesterday?"

Chen Qiao shook her head: "We are not very familiar with her and haven't paid much attention to her, but we were together almost the whole day yesterday and didn't notice anything strange about her."

Song Guicheng clasped his hands lightly and didn't ask any more questions.

Instead, he followed Shi Sui into the bathroom. The bathroom window was open, and wind blew in from outside, making the stench in the air a little lighter.

He told the players about Ye Yiru's visit to him last night, and everyone searched the bathroom again, but still found nothing, just like yesterday.

The chilly autumn wind blew in through the open window, making Song Guicheng feel cold.

Shi Sui saw him wrapping his clothes tightly and reminded him, "Go back and put on some more clothes."

There were changes of clothes prepared for them in the closet in the room, and a few coats were hung.

Song Guicheng was planning to put on an autumn outfit. Just as he walked out of the room, he saw his brother coming out of the room. Their eyes met and he saw the plate in his brother's hand.

The man glanced at Song Guicheng. He thought his brother would just ignore him, but he didn't expect the man opposite to ask, "What's wrong?"

Song Guicheng swallowed, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Someone is dead."

The man nodded, unmoved, with no change in his expression.

Just as he was about to go downstairs, Song Guicheng suddenly asked, "What's your sister's name?"

The man raised his eyes, his gaze was somewhat deep: "Sui Yueyi."

The name suits the person, Song Guicheng said secretly as he recalled the smart and lovely little girl in the photo.

"Then...what about you?" His tone was a little hesitant, but he finally asked.

From his angle, he could see the man's hard jawline.

The man didn't speak for a long time. The temperature in the air dropped a few degrees for no apparent reason. Song Guicheng's throat was dry: "If you don't want to say it..."

"Sui Shunan." Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the man.

Sui Shunan left his name and walked down the stairs calmly.

Breakfast was placed on the dining table downstairs. Yesterday morning there were eggs, pancakes, buns and the like, but today there was only porridge and biscuits left.

Ye Yiru's body was just left on the ground, no one touched her. The person who had eaten and acted with everyone yesterday died in one night.

A few of the timid girls lost their appetite, but Shi Sui was not affected at all and even ate more than yesterday.

In his words, only if you are full will you have the strength to escape.

Song Guicheng drank more porridge and saved the biscuits for lunch and dinner.

He put on an autumn sweater under his sweater, and it really made him feel much warmer. Shi Sui was shocked: "How old are you and you're wearing an autumn sweater?"

Song Guicheng said expressionlessly: "Not only do I wear autumn clothes, I also wear autumn trousers, and I wear red ones."

Care comes from no matter where it comes from; warmth comes from long johns.

Shi Sui: “…” You are awesome.

The conversation between the two made everyone laugh and the atmosphere eased a little. Zhang Yifan admired Song Guicheng's mentality.

Both of them were new players who had just completed the novice dungeon, but Song Guicheng had already adapted to the situation and was able to interact with other veteran players like a duck in water. Even big guys like Shi Sui and Xu Chongchuan, who seemed unusual, treated him differently...

Thinking of this, he felt a little lost.

"Stop being in a daze and eat quickly." Song Guicheng noticed Zhang Yifan who was in a daze and reminded him softly.

Zhang Yifan forced a smile at him and drank the rest of the porridge as if he was chewing wax.

Except for the locked room on the third floor, all the places that should be explored in the villa have been explored, but no one still has a clue.

Miao Mingjie and Chen Qiao didn't want to go back to their rooms, so they curled up on the sofa in the living room.

Manlong, Che Wen and his group wanted to go to the backyard to take another look. After finishing his breakfast, Qu Jiabao went upstairs without saying a word. Zhou Ding and Yue Yan did not follow him this time.

Shi Sui and Song Guicheng decided to stay in the villa and explore further. He glanced at Miao Mingjie who was sitting silently on the sofa and poured her a glass of water.

"Thank you." Miao Mingjie held the cup, her face looking a little numb.

Song Guicheng noticed her like this, sighed inwardly, and was about to leave when Miao Mingjie suddenly grabbed his sleeve and stared at him blankly: "Will I die?"

"What?" Song Guicheng was stunned.

Miao Mingjie's eyes were dull: "I saw it. Last night, there was a woman who looked exactly like me."

At this point, her whole body suddenly trembled, and she hugged the pillow tightly in her arms. The cup of water was knocked over and spilled on the carpet.

"I saw it. She knocked on the door and asked if it was me, but I was still in bed." Her eyes were wandering and she looked around in horror, as if there was some danger lurking beside her, just waiting for the right moment to bite her to pieces.

"Calm down, Miao Mingjie." Song Guicheng squatted down and patiently comforted her, "We are all here. We will stay in the villa during the day and not go anywhere."

Miao Mingjie gradually calmed down. Song Guicheng signaled Chen Qiao to take care of her with his eyes, and then he left.
