The mobile phone with the flashlight turned on was not as durable as expected. After just over two hours of use, the light became significantly dimmer, and after a short while, the mobile phone was completely dead.

Xu Shu was in a deep sleep and didn't notice these things at all.

It wasn't until he woke up that he saw Ji Chuan was sitting quietly in the corner with No. [-] mobile phone screen turned on.

The brightness of the screen should be adjusted to the brightest, and the light hit his face from bottom to top, coating a layer of soft luster.

His chin was resting on his knees, his eyes were lowered and fixed on the screen, and it took a long time before he blinked.

Xu Shu watched him silently for a while, and a subtle feeling gradually arose in his heart.

In the past, he felt that to describe Ji Chuan, negative adjectives such as gloomy, withdrawn, indifferent, cruel, and bloodthirsty had to be used.

But now it seems that one should be added... helpless or pitiful?

Even though Xu Shu knew very well what this person looked like during the day, at this moment, Ji Chuan looked like a child who couldn't find a home, making one unable to help but want to lend a helping hand.

He even felt a little guilty.

Because Ji Chuan is just a character he wrote on a whim.

Xu Shu was serializing another popular novel at the time, and the reason why he suddenly opened up this trap was purely because the long-term serialization made him feel a little bored and boring, and he just wanted to change his taste.

But after writing two chapters casually, he felt that it was a very tiring and troublesome thing to open a book without a guideline, so he abandoned it irresponsibly.

Xu Shu never thought that a virtual character made of words would appear in front of his eyes one day, let alone that his casual writing would cause such great pain to Ji Chuan.

He looked at Ji Chuan, thought for a while, and stroked the bottom of his left wrist with his right index finger.

There is a red tattoo there, which looks like a pen.

Each game unit can only be used once.

or……

Xu Shu thought for two seconds before making a decision.

And just when he was about to take out the pen, Ji Chuan suddenly tilted his body and fell down.

Xu Shu was startled, and quickly got up and went over to help him up while calling his name.Inadvertently, his fingers touched the skin of his neck, which was terribly hot.

Xu Shu touched Ji Chuan's forehead again, and the palm of his hand was burning hot, as expected, he had a fever.

If he hadn't accidentally entered this novel world, Ji Chuan would have passed the game alone in this state, right?It's really amazing.

Thinking about it, Xu Shu picked up the phone's light, went to the bed and took down No. [-]'s body, ripped off all the bedding and wrapped it around Ji Chuan's body.

Then, without any delay, he took out the pen and wrote a sentence in the void——

"From now on, Ji Chuan will no longer be afraid of the dark."

In his sleep, Ji Chuan suddenly felt a sweet liquid slowly flowing between his lips.

He swallowed two or three mouthfuls hungrily before he woke up suddenly.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Xu Shu who was holding a mineral water bottle.

And he - actually leaned on Xu Shu's shoulder.

"..." Ji Chuan endured it, and said, "Let me go."

"Oh." Xu Shu took a step back, watching Ji Chuan's head slam back onto the bed with a "bang".

It hurts to look at it.

Xu Shu wanted to laugh a little, coughed twice and said seriously: "Just wake up, you had a fever last night. It's 08:30, I just went out, and there is food and water outside, all for eight people. In addition And a little blue pill."

Ji Chuan nodded, reached out and touched his forehead, but didn't speak.

Xu Shu handed over the water: "Drink it, your fever seems to have not subsided, so don't get up, I'll bring you the food."

Ji Chuan was stunned for a moment, took the water and drank most of the bottle in one go.His eyes fell on Xu Shu who turned to get his meal, and a complex and unclear emotion flashed in his eyes.

Xu Shu came over with the meal and said, "Now we'll have to wait for the evening, and today should be over. But... Judging from the things outside, number two is probably dead."

Only when number two is dead, the ghost will put the medicine there.

Because she is the most suspected one now, if there are no accidents, No. [-] will even stand up tonight to expose "No. [-] is a ghost".

So number two must die now.

And once she died, the suspicion would naturally cease to exist.

Those who are not suspected have no need to lie in the previous two days.

Therefore, for ghosts, those medicines must appear, so that they can be used to continue to create clouds for other players.

For the next time, all that is left is to wait.

After Ji Chuan finished eating, he fell asleep again. Seeing that it was still early, Xu Shu took a nap.

Time passed quickly in his sleep, as if it hadn't been long before it was eight o'clock in the evening.

All the rooms are opened together.

The moment Xu Shu and Ji Chuan walked out, they received everyone's attention.

Number Eight even blurted out: "You guys are not dead?!"

Xu Shu looked at the others and said, "No. [-] didn't come out."

The eyes of the other four people turned to the door of No. [-]'s room, and their expressions were not very good-looking.

After a brief silence, Number Four said: "Everyone, let's sit down first and then we can talk——No. [-] and No. [-], please tell us about the situation in Room [-] first."

Xu Shu smiled, shook his head and said, "No, there is no need for that. Because we already know who the ghost is."

"Who is it?!" Number Five asked almost immediately, "Don't be tricky, tell us quickly!"

Xu Shu glanced at Ji Chuan and said, "Let's make it clear step by step. First of all, the rules written on paper are false."

"Fake, fake?" No. 1.5 was stunned: "But, the rooms are indeed opened on a [-]-hour basis."

"This is the right of ghosts." Xu Shu said: "Everyone knows that in the Paradise game, ghosts can only kill players who have triggered taboos. No matter what kind of game, if ghosts want to kill, they must Will try to guide players to trigger some kind of taboo."

"Yes, that's true," Number Three said.

"What about this game?" Xu Shu looked around the crowd and said slowly, "So far, no one has any feeling of being led by others?"

Number Five pondered: "You mean, that rule is a guiding trap set by ghosts for us?"

"That's right. You can recall that when we entered the game, we first heard the game rules in the notification sound, and then this piece of paper suddenly appeared, right? But since the notification can tell the rules, why not let it do it all? Finished? Even in that paragraph, there is no mention of the rules that appear later?"

Xu Shu said: "Of course, the reason why we found out that the rules are fake is also because there is a loophole in that rule..."

He recounted what he discovered last night, and continued: "So we think that in this game, the ghost has the right to confuse the players. It can use this to divide the players and make everyone suspect each other. So the question Come on, why does it make everyone suspect each other?"

"I just want everyone to kill each other?" No. [-] said: "Didn't you say that you can expose others, so as long as someone exposes others, this person will die. Doesn't this achieve...ah, no..."

When he said this, he was a little ashamed: "If the rules are false, then the above-mentioned point that players will be obliterated after failing to expose them must also be false."

Xu Shu nodded, and said, "You're right. Actually, the reason why ghosts want everyone to be suspicious of each other is that the taboo of this game is not to be suspicious of multiple players at the same time."

The reason why No. [-] died first was because more people doubted him than No. [-] on the first night.

And the same goes for number two.When number one died, number two became the most suspicious person.

"Originally, number two could be kept for now. After all, she is the most suspected, and can be used to help ghosts attract everyone's attention. But number three said last night that if there is no clue today, he will definitely expose number two."

Xu Shu looked at No. [-], saw that the other party nodded, and said with a smile, "This sentence is No. [-]'s reminder."

Once No. [-] publicly exposed that No. [-] was a ghost, according to the rules, there would only be two outcomes.

If you guess right, the game is over.The second is a wrong guess, and the third died on the spot.

But if the rule is false, neither of these outcomes is possible.

and so……

"Ghosts absolutely, absolutely dare not let people do this kind of behavior to expose someone."

As Xu Shu said, he turned his head slightly and looked at the one who had never said a word——number four.

He laughed and said, "No. [-], you are not an old player who has experienced five games at all, are you? The reason why you say that is just to let everyone believe in you and let everyone be led by the nose according to your rhythm."

Looking at the other party's ugly face, Xu Shu continued: "Actually, I thought it was a bit strange before, why an old player who has experienced five games, the weapon he took out is a fruit that can be exchanged for three points knife?"

"Of course, I really doubted you because you actually stopped No. [-] last night when No. [-] was going to expose No. [-]. I don't really believe that a player who has experienced five games would rather give up one chance to complete the game. Also protect this stranger you met for the first time."

"Actually, it's because you're worried about exposing the fact that the rules are fake, right?"

"What..." No. [-] looked at No. [-] blankly, and said incredulously, "He, isn't he an old player?"

Xu Shu said slowly: "Of course not, maybe it's the second or third time you came in, right?"

Number four's fingers gradually tightened, and he argued weakly: "I've always been so kind. Don't you think kind people don't deserve to survive the fifth game?"

"Stupid people are not worthy." Ji Chuan said suddenly.

Xu Shu suppressed a smile and coughed, and asked No. [-], "The loopholes in the rules and the one-hour rendezvous time for players every night should be forced by the system to stay, right? Otherwise, the difficulty of this game will increase. More than double."

Number four refused to admit it, and snorted coldly: "I admit that what you said is very reasonable, but what evidence do you have? Don't you think it's too ridiculous to judge it as false based on a loophole in the rules?" !"

Xu Shu looked at him and said, "Last night when I discussed with No. [-], it was indeed just a guess. However, No. [-]'s death is the decisive evidence. If the rules are true, why not keep her Fate, let No. [-] prove it to everyone?

Don't you think seeing a player die for denouncing the wrong person is a pretty intimidating thing for other people?This will definitely make other people more afraid to expose others casually.For the ghost, there are only advantages and no disadvantages, and it has no reason to give up such an opportunity.Unless... the rules are fake. "

He paused, looked up at the dazzling fluorescent lights above, and said, "Did you hear me, I said, number four is the ghost in this game."
