The potted plant in the background of the photo suddenly withered, and the little girl opened her eyes strangely, as if staring at the two people outside the photo.

Shi Qi glanced at it, took the photo calmly, turned it over, and patted the little girl face down.

"It's impossible to crawl out of the photo," Shi Qi comforted him, "Don't be afraid."

"..."

Xuan Mu: I'm just telling you, it doesn't have to be like this.

Shi Qi's indifferent way of dealing with things... really makes this game very unexperienced.

Xuan Mu cleared his throat, looked at the diary: "Did you find any clues?"

"The current breakthrough should be the doll, and the key point should be the 'red glass ball'," Shi Qi turned a few pages back, and continued, "Also, I don't think she is very good at writing small essays."

Xuan Mu was stunned for a moment, and then said "oh" in a clear voice: "Do you mean that she keeps repeating a few words like crazy?"

"Well, she kept expressing negative emotions repeatedly in the next few pages," Shi Qi said, "I reasonably suspect that she may be suffering from a mental illness."

Xuan Mu nodded, he summed up the reasoning very well, but he was inexplicably upset about it.

It feels like I'm useless at all, and I'm simply lowering the average IQ level of the team.

"And that one, the Ferris wheel. It should also be a clue?" Xuan Mu looked for the key words in it like a model.

Shi Qi closed the notebook and stuffed it into the pocket of his coat: "Maybe. But I don't have a clue for now, so I can remember it first."

Xuan Mu looked up at him, and then asked, "Where's the hair? Hair."

When Shi Qi saw that he was looking at him with bright eyes, he seemed to see his little thoughts, and raised the corner of his mouth deliberately: "There are also many descriptions about hair, but I don't think it has much to do with it."

Xuan Mu frowned, took out the small book and read it carefully several times.

"Ah," Xuan Mu took out the small note that fell down just now, "then 'please treat Ilya gently' is the so-called death condition?"

"Well, yes," Shi Qi nodded, "full marks."

"Thank you." Xuan Mu accepted the perfect score with satisfaction, and handed back the photo and notebook to Shi Qi.

Shi Qi resisted the urge to laugh out loud, and put the clues back into his coat pocket.

Xuan Mu wanted to help Shi Qi with some things, but he was wearing a hooded sweater, and the only space where he could store things was the hat.

He tugged on Shi Qi's sleeve, Shi Qi immediately understood, raised his hand and glanced at his watch.

"It's four o'clock."

"Oh," Xuanmu asked subconsciously, "Are you hungry? It's time for dinner."

Shi Qi was stunned for a moment, then coughed lightly: "It's okay, it's okay. Are you hungry?"

"Not hungry," Xuan Mu keenly noticed Shi Qi's subtle expression change, and stared at him for a while, "Go back and eat something before coming down?"

"If you're not hungry," Shi Qi walked towards the door, opened the door and looked out, "we can search for a while."

"Let's go back to eat first," Xuan Mu followed up, and said, "There is no rush."

"Okay," Shi Qi nodded without objecting, "Then let's go."

The infected who chased them just now had disappeared, and a few were still wandering in the corridor.

They carefully bypassed the infected people wandering in the corridor, and walked towards the way they came. When they passed the operating room they had searched just now, Xia Yue and No. [-] were no longer there.

They arrived on the third floor smoothly, and the whole floor was unexpectedly quiet, and no one else was seen in the kitchen or CT room.

After simply looking for some food in the kitchen and filling their stomachs, they were ready for the second round of search.

"We have to make a plan first," Xuan Mu said, "If we search aimlessly like this, when will we find it?"

Xuan Mu glanced in the direction of the dormitory. The door of Liao Ying's room was closed tightly. He must have been resting in the dormitory after returning to the third floor.But the door of Lin Xianghua's room, who thought he was in the dormitory, was wide open.

"Then make a decision." Shi Qi said as he walked towards the second floor.

Xuan Mu raised his eyes to look at him, and glanced at his pocket, "For example, find a backpack first, and transfer your clues first. Then look for any relevant props and clues."

Shi Qi nodded, "I don't know if they searched carefully."

"Then let's search the entire second floor? In case they missed any clues." Xuan Mu suggested.

"it is good."

The two expertly bypassed the infected in the hall.Shi Qi pushed open the door of a consulting room and continued to talk to him, "If you are tired, just tell me."

Xuan Mu responded and began to search.

The two searched several consulting rooms and reference rooms on the second floor along the way, but found no valuable clues. There was a computer in one of the consulting rooms, but it was not connected to the power supply at all.

The entire second floor was searched, but no clues related to the red glass ball were found. Those weird Tarot card photo frames have the same style in several operating rooms.

In the end, they only managed to achieve one of the plans. In the ward at the end of the corridor, they found a marching backpack and a working flashlight.

"Is this a clue?" Xuan Mu played with the small flashlight, and at the same time transferred the clues in Shi Qi's pocket to his backpack.

Shi Qi stretched out his hand to Xuan Mu, "Probably not, but maybe it can be used in other places."

Xuan Mu glanced at him, and put the backpack on his back, "It doesn't look good on you in a coat."

Shi Qi was taken aback, but didn't take his hand back: "What do I want to look good for?"

"Besides, it's not heavy." Xuan Mu raised his hand and patted his backpack, then changed the subject abruptly, "What time is it?"

Shi Qi sighed softly, "Six o'clock."

"I didn't find anything," Xuan Mu walked out of the consulting room, "Do you want to check on the first floor?"

Shi Qi shook his head, "No, tomorrow."

The light on the second floor gradually became dim, and the infected seemed to be more restless than during the day, and their actions were more agile.

Although I picked up an important prop flashlight, but it is not clear whether it will be used later, the two decided to save electricity.

Arrived on the third floor, came to the CT room, and happened to meet Xia Yue bringing a pot of rice to the wooden table, while No. [-] was holding bowls and chopsticks and several dishes.

"You... nothing happened, right?" Xia Yue's expression was unpredictable, and she hesitated for a long time before speaking.

Xuan Mu understood, Xia Yue was worried about them, but she was also dissatisfied that he chased after them on his own initiative, "It's okay, I will get rid of it soon."

Xia Yue nodded, and then smiled at them, "I thought that if you are all right, you should be back soon, so I brought you bowls and chopsticks."

"Li Kuangyu," she turned to look at No. [-], "go knock on Auntie's door and ask her if she wants something to eat."

No. [-] Li Kuangyu responded, opened the door and walked towards the dormitory area.

"??"

Xuan Mu vaguely remembered that No. [-] was smoking a cigarette and stomping on the table yesterday, and was also dressed in the style of a non-mainstream hooligan, so he couldn't help being stunned, and whispered in Shi Qi's ear.

"This...wasn't he very fierce yesterday?"

Shi Qi also said in a low voice, "I don't know."

Xia Yue took the bowls and chopsticks and handed them to them: "There is no meat in the refrigerator, so I just made scrambled eggs with tomatoes and vegetables, and I can make do with it."

Shi Qi politely thanked him.

"No, it's very fragrant." Xuan Mu sincerely praised Xia Yue's cooking skills.

Then he suddenly remembered...

Meat? ... The only chicken wing seemed to be made into cola chicken wings by Shi Qi yesterday, which made them share the food happily.

For a moment he felt a little guilty again.

Li Kuangyu knocked on Liao Ying's door, but returned to the CT room without getting a response.

Probably really hungry, he took the bowl and chopsticks in a hurry, sat down on his seat, and immediately started eating.

After dinner, everyone started to exchange clues.

"After you lure those things away," Xia Yue took out two small notes from No. [-]'s coat pocket, "We went to the first floor and found these."

Xuan Mu took the note.

One reads "Don't alarm the witch" in red ink, and the other reads "Night is coming" in plain black handwriting.

"Witch...is it?" Xuan Mu looked up at Xia Yue.

"We don't know either." Xia Yue shook her head, "On the first floor...we almost never come back."

"The first floor...is different. Those things are bigger and more sensitive than those on the second floor." Li Kuangyu paused, then continued, "There are a lot of them. We were trapped for a long time before escaping."

Shi Qi took the first note, looked at it, and after thinking for a while, turned to look at Xuan Mu.

"Have you ever played games?"

Xuan Mu didn't understand why he asked this: "I can't even remember my ex-boyfriend, how can I remember playing games."

Xia Yue and Li Kuangyu: ...? ?What did I hear?

Shi Qi paused and coughed lightly.

"...In a horror survival game," Shi Qi explained to the others, "there is a special kind of infected person called a witch."

Li Kuangyu gave a clear "ah".

Xuan Mu looked at Shi Qi blankly, waiting for him to speak.

Shi Qi continued: "During the game, if the player disturbs or irritates her, she will attack the player. Once she is targeted, it is almost difficult to escape."

"Oh," Xuan Mu understood, "Big boss."

Xia Yue also nodded, and pointed to another piece of paper in Xuan Mu's hand: "What about this? What does 'Night is coming' mean?"

"I think it is telling us not to go downstairs at night, it will be dangerous." Li Kuangyu expressed his guess.

Xuan Mu looked at it, then turned to look at Shi Qi.

Shi Qi pondered for a while, then shook his head.

He returned the note to Xia Yue, turned around and took the marching backpack, took out Ilya's photo and diary, and briefly explained the key points of the clues with Xia Yue and Li Kuangyu.

Xia Yue flipped through the diary, then turned to look at the doll on the operating table.

"We're going to put another eye on this thing?"

She seemed to see the corners of the doll's mouth upwards without showing any traces, and suddenly her back felt cold, and she quickly looked away.

"Probably." Shi Qi nodded, stood up, and cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks in front of him, "Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Xia Yue nodded in agreement, and also stood up: "Yes, it's not safe at night, so I'll check tomorrow morning."

Xuan Mu put the clues back into the bag, got up and helped clean up the dishes.

And just as they were walking towards the dormitory, they happened to bump into Lin Xianghua who was sneaking out of the stairs.

Lin Xianghua seemed to be taken aback, he glanced dodgingly at Shi Qi who was walking in the front, then immediately averted his gaze, and walked straight towards the room.
