The Days I Clear Escape Games Pretending to be an NPC

Ren Yifei slept very restlessly, a cold and damp feeling haunted him, as if he was not lying in bed, but in the lair of some cold-blooded animal, the air still had a sticky stench.

Thick and dense sweat came out, and his bangs were wet. He seemed to see a pair of yellow glowing eyes in a daze.

He recalled seeing the same pair of eyes when he visited a 'tiger that ate a man' at a particular zoo.

Not looking at something strange, unknown, without any curiosity.

It was a salivating look at the food.

The chill rushed into the quilt, and he woke up from the cold.

Just ten centimeters away from his face, a black silhouette was stuck there, greedy and addicted.

"..."

Because it took a few seconds to react, Ren Yifei missed the best time for fear.

This saved his face very well, he could calm down, slow down his breathing, as if he just opened his eyes in a daze, and then closed them sleepily.

Burglary?

In fact, in the room with two layers of thick curtains, it was so dark that he could hardly see anything, so he just saw the outline and felt the gaze.

The other party was very careful, so close that he couldn't hear the sound of breathing, nor could he feel the heat of breathing.

If it's a burglary, you'll do your best to protect yourself by pretending you don't know.

For several minutes, the intruder clung to him and watched him with unnatural obsession.

Not an accidental intruder, but more like...

Bastard meal.

Apart from anxiety and fear, Ren Yifei has a familiar kindness.

An illegitimate meal, a kind of strange person who secretly puts monitors and monitoring equipment, uses drones to take pictures of windows, and tracks cars...

He is elusive, comparable to a first-class detective.

In comparison, this thing may be better than sasaengfan. After all, the guide elf said that bosses cannot attack npcs, but sasaengfan may pounce on them. (The premise is the boss, not the npc.)

Ren Yifei closed his eyes, his breathing became smooth and regular, as if he fell asleep again.

"You're back." The voice in the room was hoarse and low, hardly like a human voice, and the tone was still extremely suppressed fanaticism, "I've waited for a long time, and finally it's here."

Ren Yifei's goosebumps would rise because of this voice.

But he still breathed relaxedly, as if in deep sleep.

"You look better than I remember."

As if the black shadow wanted to touch him, he placed his fingers half a centimeter above his eyelids, separated by air.

Ren Yifei's hand tensed up, and there was a ghost card between his fingertips.

But after that, the other party didn't move any more, just staring closely.

The black shadow lurked in the room for a long time, Ren Yifei put his finger on one pulse gate, counted the number of times the pulse beat, and calculated the time.

About 10 minutes, the door opened and closed once.

The room was silent.

Ren Yifei lay motionless on the bed.

If he opens his eyes at this moment, there will be a huge surprise.The black shadow didn't go away at all, he opened the door, but turned back without making a sound - the few seconds Ren Yifei woke up still made him suspicious.

But unfortunately, the sleeping person did not open his eyes, and his breathing did not change.

About 10 minutes passed, and the door opened and closed again.

This time, Sombra really left.

About 10 minutes later, the card burns, signaling the death of a player.

Ren Yifei opened his eyes, already in a cold sweat.

He closed his eyes and breathed slowly, being careful not to make loud noises.After a few times, Ren Yifei regained his strength and looked down at the card. Two messages were updated on it.

[The first night: Longbei Mountain. 】

[One player dies, and one-eighth of the 'ghost' seal is unlocked. 】

The second is easy to explain, when a player dies, the power of the 'ghost' increases.

The first one, Longbei Mountain?What does this have to do with the dead?

After thinking about it for a long time without any idea, the whole person was very tired, he stayed up until one o'clock, but there was still no more movement, Ren Yifei simply turned over the cards: Let's talk about it tomorrow when someone screams...

In the early morning before the sun came out, the sky was blue-purple and cloudless, and the birds lined up on the telephone poles.

"what--"

A sharp voice pierced through the sky, breaking the tranquility of the morning.

The sleeping apartment building vibrated, and the birds started up one after another, like a note suddenly soaring on the stave.

"What's the matter?" NPCs rubbed their sleepy eyes and walked out the door.

"Here we come." The players in different rooms opened their eyes together, put on their clothes and rushed out.

Ren Yifei mingled among the npc crowd, neither early nor late, neither forward nor backward.

"What happened?" He asked the people around him. In fact, the first scene of the murder was right in front of him.

This is the public toilet at the corner of the first floor. The person who found the body was an uncle who came to use the toilet, and he fainted from fright.

Under the pale light of the public toilet, they could see a woman in a pink pajamas lying in a pool of blood on the floor of the public sink.

She had one slipper on her foot and the other turned out. The curls of ironed wool were untied, covering her face and neck, and part of her hair was stained with blood, sticking to her body.

She was stabbed several times in the back, and her pajamas were stained red, and her blood had already coagulated.

The walls of the public toilets are covered with ceramic tiles. They are cleaned regularly, so although they are a little yellow, they look clean on weekdays.But at this moment, these tiles are covered with bloody finger prints, and a beautiful lip is drawn on the bloody fingerprints, and then crossed.

There are also traces of blood on the ground, as if the deceased has been chased here, struggled, and finally lost.

Most people just glanced at it, and their legs were too weak to stand up.

There was a strong smell of blood in the air.

It was the player from yesterday, the mother of the two brats, Ren Yifei recognized her.

The players noticed that a golden letter appeared above the head of the deceased: Tenant No. XX.

The golden words appeared, indicating that she had broken a certain rule and became the boss's first choice.

what did she do?

"Wife!!" A man rushed forward crying, "What's going on? Who did it?"

"Is it you? Just because my child called you a miss? Aren't you a miss? Are you afraid that people will say you did it? And you, who are gloomy all day long, are you taking revenge on my wife because I reported you? Yes, yes. With you, you are not a good thing, stealing chickens and dogs."

The men jumped up, as if they were crazy, catching one and scolding the other.

The administrator stopped him: "Calm down."

The npc is flying around, but the players squat down and start checking. Time is precious and cannot be wasted.

"The mouth was scratched." They whispered.

"The identity of this player is a housewife with two children."

These players are not afraid of exposing their identities at all. They are not as timid as newcomers, but they have the confidence that they can face the boss calmly even when they come to the door.

The game is like a natural evolution field, some people evolve the function of camouflage, others evolve keen perception and escape speed, or they also evolve sharp minions, defensive armor and the spirit of "doing nothing" .

Ren Yifei belongs to the former, and these people probably belong to the latter.

In addition, he could clearly feel that the players squatting there were divided into several groups, some came in as a team, and there were also individual visitors.

The player who rescued him yesterday brought a young man with a nervous face, and the others mostly acted alone, which can also be seen from their body movements.

A student named Xiao Shi was examining the corpse. He was very calm and skilled in his movements.

Arched old man is looking at red lips on wall.

The delivery guy was there too, and he looked like a terrified newcomer, frequently looking at other people, asking for help.

There are still two mixed in the crowd, pretending to be npc, but there are many flaws.

The 'ghost' is hidden among the players, maybe there is a 'ghost' among these few people, and the identities of prey and hunter can be switched at any time.

Ren Yifei thought of the sight yesterday morning and the shock last night.

Will it be related to 'ghosts'?

Listening to that tone, it's hard for Ren Yifei not to be wrong after waiting for you for a long time.

He just wants to lie down in the game and be a cute npc quietly, but there are always such annoying accidents.

Ren Yifei almost thought that the dungeon was aimed at him, so he arranged for a character to be targeted.

But a soft and harmless blind young man, who will he offend?

"It's time to wake the kids up."

"It's time to go to work."

The corpses began to disappear, the npcs yawned and walked back, the furious man stopped moving, and even the unconscious first witness stood up.Only the bloodstains on the wall on the ground remained there, but the npcs did not respond.

The players are still squatting there, they seem to be analyzing the situation and discussing countermeasures.

Including those on the ground, a total of six players appeared on the scene, and three were hiding.

Saman also carefully observed the six people. The young woman died, and he knew the truth about the person who came with him. He was sent by Tianhong to play tricks, and he might have connected with the killer in the crowd.

In order to kill him, Tianhong spent a lot of money.

The remaining three people, who were wearing sky blue delivery clothes, met yesterday. They looked like newcomers who had just played, but their eyes were not quite right.I don't know if it's an old player pretending to be a newcomer, or there is something else going on.

One is an old man in unlined clothing. I saw him blending in with the elderly people sunbathing yesterday, looking for news.

There was also a young man dressed as a student who didn't speak much, his eyes kept moving on the wound and the blood on the wall. He probably knew a little about criminal investigation and was analyzing the appearance of the murderer.

As for the player pretending to be an NPC in the crowd, although he tried hard to synchronize with the NPC, he still found it at a glance.

The two of them, one is a young man in a patterned shirt, he looks dressed, his hands are covered with tattoos and nose studs, he is a non-mainstream young man, but his eyes are very sharp, and he will deliberately avoid looking at him.

One is a 60-year-old aunt who walks very cautiously, like a young woman.

There was another one that he couldn't find. He didn't know if he didn't come, or the disguise was too successful, so he couldn't see it.

In the crowd, he also saw the blind npc who had dinner with him yesterday. He was in the crowd, taking his time and taking every step of the same length.

He discovered yesterday that this young man is used to measuring distances with steps to determine where he is.This is a good way. He may not be able to see it, but he must have a complete map in his brain, and he knows where he is.

Saman wondered, why did he pay attention to him? Could it be because the other person's eyes were soft and bright, not like a blind person?

Finally, a golden line lit up in the sky, the aroma of breakfast wafted from the apartment building, and the grandparents started to go out.

This time it was really morning.

Ren Yifei was fully dressed, ready to go out for breakfast.

Saman next door also put on his suit and prepared to go out with a file bag.

The surveillance video from six locations on the computer was playing at six times the speed. A figure in black appeared on two screens. He was covered in black and covered his face. He was about 1.7 to 1.8 meters tall. The possibility of female camouflage cannot be ruled out.

After turning off the computer and putting it in the computer bag, Saman went out.He only has one day off, and he has to go to work normally today.

Just like what Ren Yifei guessed at the beginning, the player can destroy the character set to a certain extent, but they don't do their own work. If the collapse is too thorough, there will be gold rewards.

Whether players like it or not, they have to go to work or school.

Oh, except for the one who was originally squatting at home.

The aunt next door came back from shopping as before, and she greeted Ren Yifei cordially.The two brats in the corridor were chasing and fighting, and almost bumped into him, but they just made a face, cursed 'blind man' and ran away.

In the npc's memory, there is no murder case, no going out for that period of time, and even no mother of these two bear children.

Ren Yifei went downstairs more cautiously this time. He tapped the steps with his toes to confirm that he was safe before continuing.

"Don't worry," a clear male voice came out accompanied by the aroma of the snack house, "There are no foreign objects today. Well, there are no brats either."

Then there was an orderly sound of footsteps, passing by Ren Yifei in a hurry, gradually going away, and disappearing.

"Mr. Lin?" Ren Yifei slightly raised his voice, but no one responded.

He has gone far away, only a little warm fragrance remains.

The author has something to say:

The sweetness is especially present, and the beauty is far away.

Saman: ...
