I died on the first day of the game

The old player who was arguing with others just now died.

Survivors gathered around the bathroom to look at his body, which fell in a puddle of water, with a ferocious face, slightly pale skin, no blood or wounds, and seemed to be alive at first glance.

But everyone knows that he became the first victim.

This is not a terrible death in the game, and soon someone calmed down and asked: "He, um... how did he die? Who was the first to find out?"

"it's me."

Standing in the front row, a young man about 25 years old raised his hand to signal. He has a stocky appearance, a pair of dark eyes and shiny eyes, and he kept looking at the crowd, as if he was looking for something, "I just walked halfway, and I saw A man ran out from inside! Then I went in and found him lying on the ground!"

"what!"

"one person……?"

"No way! Could it be that he was killed?"

There was an uproar, and everyone couldn't believe that the first life ended with a teammate, and they talked about each other.

"Wait a minute! I'm a doctor! Let me take a look." Another woman with dark brown hair walked up to the corpse, and seemed to be proficient in picking up the other's collar with her fingertips, and pressed his face and other parts.

"He was... held in the water and drowned."

After the woman checked, she came to such a conclusion, and swallowed the word "person" that came out of her mouth out of caution.

There are shallow water marks on the sink.

His collar was open, the black clothes were slightly wet, and there was an obvious bruise on his neck. It was not difficult to imagine that something was holding his neck tightly and immersing him in the water.

The people killed by the game are either extremely cruel or silent. At this moment, all the signs are indeed very artificial.

"Could it be..." Others searched in the crowd unconsciously. More than one person thought of Guan Tianshu. The round stool they kicked over due to the quarrel fell on the living room floor. After only 10 minutes, one of them died inexplicably. , it's hard not to connect the two things.

Li Dailong said: "Who saw Guan Tianshu?"

Only then did they realize that Guan Tianshu was not in the crowd at all.

Someone has already asked the stocky young man, "Did you see him running out just now?"

The young man's complexion was not good: "The corridor is dark, so I'm not sure...but he's also wearing dark clothes."

This is not an effective clue. In order to withstand dirt and sweat and cope with the unknown environment of the game, more than half of the survivors on the scene wore dark clothes.

Li Dailong had a panoramic view of everyone's expressions, and slowly said: "What are you still thinking about? We should plan for the worst. The game has really begun!"

Yi Mian withdrew her gaze from that pale face, and he agreed with that.

If Guan Tianshu really did it, it would be the best situation. They can still treat it as the game has not been played, or they have not touched the taboo.

Not to mention the possibility of passionate killing, Guan Tianshu and the old player are similar in stature and height, and they don't look like they have been trained in their steps and demeanor. No matter who they want to kill, it shouldn't be so easy.

Yi Mian believed even more—this was the layout of the main god.

For example, the game kills old players for some reason, making the rest of the players suspicious and suspicious of each other, shifting their attention to the "murderer", and ignoring the game's mechanism.

He identified the direction and left the crowd silently.

Guan Tianshu hugged his hands and knees, and squatted in a small gap between the sofa and the curtains in the living room.

His eyelids twitched from time to time, and he stared at the floor, wondering what he was thinking about.

"You really are here."

Yi Mian sat down on the sofa, leaned over and patted his shoulder, scaring the boy to jump up from the ground.

Guan Tianshu thought without thinking: "I didn't kill him!"

Yi Mian said inexplicably, "I didn't say you killed him either."

"But..." He changed the topic again, "I'm a little suspicious now, you admit that you were really in the bathroom just now?"

"No, no, I just..."

Yi Mian reminded: "No one was sure it was you just now, so it's even more suspicious to rush to deny it."

"Fuck, you..."

Guan Tianshu was angry, and explained sullenly, "I was the first to find out... Don't believe me, I'm not stupid, what else can I really do to him? Just look at him like that!"

Guan Tianshu said that he had a friend who almost died in the game because he was a newcomer and his teammates were unwilling to help him. That's why he reacted so violently to the old players' words.

Just now he went out angrily after the quarrel, in fact, he went to wash his face to calm himself down, but when he was going to the bathroom, he heard someone coming in from outside, followed by the sound of splashing water, which lasted for two or three minutes and did not stop. He pushed the door open a crack, looked out, only the man lying on the ground and a large water stain.

Guan Tianshu: "Hey, I don't know what to think, my first reaction was to turn off the water... Then I saw who it was and ran away quickly, shit, if someone sees him dying with me, I'll open my mouth and say I can't figure it out!"

His depressed expression does not seem to be fake, and his fear is also genuine.

Yi Mian asked, "He's been here for so long, and you haven't noticed anything wrong?"

Guan Tianshu hurriedly said: "Who knew it was him who came in! I locked the door! And the sound of the faucet is so loud."

"you are lying."

Yi Mian shook her head lightly, "Do you know how he died?"

Guan Tianshu was stunned for a moment: "Yes, was he strangled to death?"

"You saw the wound on his neck, didn't you?"

Guan Tianshu's voice lowered: "I took a look..."

Yi Mian continued: "You said you were in the toilet cubicle when he came in, and then he turned on the faucet and started to turn on the water, the sound was very loud, until after 3 minutes, you didn't feel right and went out to look, and found that he was dead, right?"

Guan Tianshu nodded blankly: "Yes, yes."

"The doctor said he was drowned. If the tap had been turned on, there would have been a lot of overflowing water on the ground."

Guan Tianshu added in a low voice: "Maybe, maybe the murderer opened the drain of the pool..."

"There was a bruise on the back of his neck, he was pushed face down into the water and opening the drain just let the water run away."

"What are you hiding?"

Yi Mian asked the question and gave the answer herself, "His death must be related to you."

"Could it be that you really killed him?"

"It's really not me, it's not me!" Guan Tianshu's eyes showed deep fear, and he covered his face in collapse, "At that time, he was already dead... He, he was not a human being!"

Guan Tianshu really didn't see who came in in the cubicle, what made him nervous at first was the sound of another footstep.

Another sound of footsteps suddenly appeared, as if it had been hidden in the toilet from the beginning. This knowledge made his hairs stand on end. He heard the old player's screams of pain, cursing, terrified screams, and the noise of water splashing, but everything was just counted. It stopped abruptly in ten seconds.

Guan Tianshu held his breath, leaning against the partition, not daring to make a sound.

It was so hard to endure in just a few minutes, he thought, that person should leave, right?The boy moved his stiff limbs and was about to open the door, but the footsteps sounded again.

The soles of the shoes rubbed against the floor, making a dull sound of treading water, and stopped step by step in front of his door. Guan Tianshu was trembling with fright, but looked down in a strange way, and a pair of familiar shoes appeared in the gap between the door and the floor.

Those are old players' shoes!But isn't he dead?

Guan Tianshu became more and more confused as he thought about it, he stood in place, but nothing happened after a while.

As soon as he opened the door cruelly, the body fell straight down. He subconsciously kicked the person aside, tidied up in a hurry, and ran out quickly.

"I saw him when he fell down." Guan Tianshu pointed to his neck, "It's such an obvious fingerprint."

Yi Mian nodded thoughtfully. If he told the truth this time, it would prove that the death of the old player was not artificial.

"Since it's not you, the chances of others are even smaller."

"Ah? Tell me, it's difficult. Is there anyone else in this house?"

Guan Tianshu's back tightened, and he felt a chill for no reason.

The young man moved closer, and stared at him with black pupils without emotion, until his hairs stood on end, before he said lightly, "Who knows."

Guan Tianshu trembled a few times, he didn't know what he thought of, and even looked at the empty living room with frightened eyes: "That, that, I think it's safer to be with everyone!"

After speaking, he straightened up and ran away from behind the sofa.

Yan Ruyue watched it amusedly: "Why are you scaring him?"

Yi Mian blinked innocently: "Is there? I just told him not to doubt his teammates easily."

There is no evidence that Guan Tianshu is the murderer, and the escape game cannot be treated with common sense, so the death of the old player was put on hold.

Until dinner time, when everyone was resting in the living room, a group of young people fought against a boy and rushed forward noisily, claiming to have found the key to the game.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, puzzled.

Someone recognized them: "You guys are... oh! Aren't you guys playing games all the time?"

"Yes! The clue is in the game! You wouldn't have found it if I hadn't insisted on going to the game room!"

Yuan Sheng raised his head high, and pointed to the ground triumphantly: "He is the ghost between us!"

The boy on the ground was one of them playing games. He was thin and gloomy. At this moment, his hands were tied behind his back, and Chong Yuansheng cursed: "Damn, I told you everything! I don't know anything! It's useless for you to tie me up!"

Yuan Sheng ignored him, and waved his hand to let everyone follow him to the game room.

"Although there are devices, it is expected that they cannot be connected to the Internet, so we have been playing these five stand-alone games."

He opened five games in turn while explaining, the first four were normal, they were ordinary shooting and puzzle types, until the screen of the fifth game popped up on the screen.

Yuan Sheng zoomed in on the screen, fixed on a scene where a villain was walking, and then pushed the thin boy to the side of the screen: "Look! Does it look like him!?"

"This……"

Everyone went to compare the two people who are one-dimensional and three-dimensional, and they have to admit that they do resemble each other. The 2D villain has the same thin body and slightly long bangs, and even the blue top and gray sweatpants on his body are perfectly reproduced.

"Now, let him go out for a while."

Yuan Sheng asked his companion to take the boy out, and he clicked on the screen to talk to the villain. Many bubble boxes appeared on the screen instantly, and they kept swiping past one by one.

【Help! 】

【I'm stuck here! 】

【Help! 】

Li Dailong thought about it: "This may be a clue, but it doesn't mean that he is a ghost, right?"

"Yes, but do you see him coming back?"

Yuan Sheng let the skinny boy walk in again. At this time, the bubbles on the screen disappeared completely. When he clicked again, the villain only said "Good morning" quietly listed at the bottom of the screen.

Everyone was stunned, and tried several times in turn, and finally confirmed that only when the boy was not within the range of the screen, the villain would send out an abnormal distress dialog.

The skinny boy has never been able to see this scene with his own eyes, but he also understood the general idea, and yelled frantically to explain: "How do you know that it wasn't a game that deliberately lied to you! It really has nothing to do with me, I'm human! In reality I'm from the No. [-] School in City X! Damn, trust me!"

Yuan Sheng retorted: "Stop pretending, you keep asking us to act with you, isn't it because you are afraid of revealing your identity!"

"That's because it's dangerous to be alone! Look who didn't act together!"

"Tch, whatever you say is right anyway, I don't believe it, maybe you killed that man too."

Yuan Sheng believed in his own judgment, and didn't want to quarrel with him anymore, so he simply blocked the other party's mouth, and then said to the survivors: "I propose, kill the ghost first!"
