game of gods

============

My God, what a thing!

When Deng Yue woke up, he was startled by the face in front of him, and instantly sat up soberly, with his legs curled up in front of his chest instinctively, looking at the man who was already sitting on the opposite bed.

"You, who are you?"

"The quality of your sleep is really good. You have slept for so long." The man on the side looked at his watch and then looked up at Deng Yue with a smile and said.

The man was handsome and handsome, but his current smile showed that he was full of mischief, as if he was thinking about some annoying prank.

Deng Yue looked at his expression, and subconsciously looked down at himself. Fortunately, his clothes were neat and tidy. It seemed that this man hadn't done anything bad to him.

"Are you confused, why are you here?" The man looked at Deng Yue's bewildered expression and suddenly asked seriously.

"Actually—" the man pretended to be mysterious and dragged out his voice. "You're dead." The man smiled sinisterly, looking straight at Deng Yue.

No, no, I'm still so young, how could it be.So, then how did I die?

The man looked at Deng Yue's dumbfounded expression of horror and disbelief, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hahaha, don't look like that, I'm just kidding you."

aha?Are you sick?This kind of joke is not funny at all.

"What's the situation now? Who are you? Where am I?" Deng Yue looked at the man suspiciously.All he wanted to know now was where he was and what he was going to do.

The man stopped laughing, sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Deng Yue, and pointed to Deng Yue's pocket: "There should be a letter stating that it is in your pocket, and we have received it."

Hearing what the man said, Deng Yue quickly searched his pockets, and finally found a card the size of an ordinary postcard in the right pocket of his trousers.

The card is printed with exquisite bronzing patterns, and the black handwritten fonts are neatly arranged on it.

The content is as follows:

Hello dear players!

Welcome to the game world of gods!You are one of the lucky ones we selected, and you have a wish that cannot be fulfilled or has no ability to fulfill; if you pass the specified level, you will leave safely and your wish will come true.If you fail to clear the level and die in the game, you will die as a sinner and we will not take any responsibility.Once again, please abide by the rules of the game, and those who violate it will bear the consequences.

After reading this explanation, Deng Yue was even more confused.

What is this?What wish?

"I might be dreaming, it's outrageous."

"No, no, no." The man got out of bed and stood in front of Deng Yue's bed, stretched out his right index finger and shook it in front of Deng Yue, denying Deng Yue's idea of ​​dreaming. "You can feel that everything here is real." After speaking, the man stretched out his hand and pinched Deng Yue's face.

The man's hands seemed a little heavy, Deng Yue pushed the man's hand away, and rubbed the red spot that was pinched by the man.

Deng Yue stared at the explanatory card, and didn't speak for a long time, feeling inexplicable on one side.

Seeing that Deng Yue had stopped talking, the man walked to the window and pulled open the heavy curtains. It was pitch black outside the window except for a full moon hanging high.

"Sure enough, it's still night." The man walked back to his bed with his head down and sat down again. "Go on to sleep."

Deng Yue stared blankly at the man, not knowing what happened. "Then where am I now?"

"Is there anyone else here?" Deng Yue got out of bed, walked to the window and stuck it on the glass to look outside in the dark, but there was no one outside.

"Maybe already in the game world, there are a group of players like us downstairs." The man's tone was very flat, as if he didn't care about appearing in a strange place for no reason. "By the way, look at this."

The man picked up an advertising brochure beside the bed and handed it to Deng Yue. It was the hotel's special brochure.

Deng Yue unfolded it and glanced at it, which was similar to an ordinary introduction, but the notes on the last page caught his attention.

There is a sentence marked in red letters on it: You must see it when you stay in the hotel, please read it carefully!

1. Don't go to an empty room where no one lives.

2. Do not go to floors where no one lives.

3. Everything in the hotel is provided free of charge.

4. If you have any questions, please ask the hotel staff.

5. Follow the clues to find the golden badge.

Remarks: Clues are cards with patterns printed on them. Please do not exchange clue cards with others at will, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!

Deng Yue looked puzzled at these points for attention, what on earth do you want me to do?

"Is this a precaution for the game? It means you can leave after you find the golden badge?" Deng Yue asked.

The man nodded silently: "Maybe so."

Deng Yue raised his hand and scratched his head irritably, with a look of pain on his face.It's so annoying, what on earth did I do, and why was I brought to play such an outrageous game.

"What wish did you make?" Deng Yue looked at the man beside him and suddenly became curious.

The man held his chin and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Forgot."

"Then what's your name?" I can't forget this too.

"Edogawa." The man replied.

"Ah! Are you a neon man?"

"No, no, my surname is Edogawa, and my parents choose their names more casually." Edogawa said with a smile, it seemed that he was often asked about his nationality.

"Soga, my name is..." Deng Yue dragged out a neon phrase, which was at least a senior officer, but before he finished speaking, Edogawa interrupted him.

"Deng Yue. I know." Edogawa pointed to the door and continued: "There is a nameplate on the door."

ah?Deng Yue looked puzzled, why does this hotel put the guest's name on the door, don't the guests want privacy?

"It seems to let players know which rooms are occupied and which are vacant. Didn't they say that they can't go to unoccupied rooms, but there will always be people who can't remember their own rooms." Edogawa said.

You are not talking about yourself.

Just when Deng Yue was wondering if Edogawa could remember his room number, there was a sudden knock on the door. He and Edogawa looked at the door at the same time, and then Edogawa went to ask and opened the door.

At the door is the hotel waiter, who came to inform them that the restaurant on the fourth floor is open and they can go to eat at any time.

When it came to eating, Deng Yue and Edo Chuan suddenly felt a little hungry, so they packed up and left the room.

"These ones without nameplates are all empty rooms?" Deng Yue looked at the doors on both sides as he walked.

"Well. Two people live on the first floor, and only one person lives on the 24th floor." Edogawa pressed the elevator button.

"It feels like something will happen if I stay by your side."

With a sound of "ding", the elevator door also opened. Edogawa pushed Deng Yue into the elevator, rolled his eyes at him by the way, and entered the elevator together.

"I'm Edogawa, not Edogawa Conan, and I'm not Edogawa Ranpo. I don't have the physique of a god of death, and I'm not a detective." Edogawa said while pressing the elevator. "It's safe with me."
