Ning Mianmian's heart beat violently.

But even so, she still remembers the hidden rule - "In the corridor, if a corpse or a part of a corpse suddenly appears within sight, it is their leftovers, treat it as if you didn't see it, don't say a word, and leave This floor. After a while, the corpse will disappear automatically."

The rules are set so that if you talk something bad will happen.

So she covered her mouth tightly with her hands to keep herself from making a sound.

In less than 24 hours after entering the dungeon, Ning Mianmian felt that her psychological quality was growing exponentially.If it was her before, she would have screamed a long time ago.Thanks to the fact that she was frightened in the dungeon, and smoked a few rules, otherwise she really couldn't handle this.

Lin Cen gestured at her, signaling her to retreat.

Ning Mianmian understood, stopped looking at the head on the ground, and turned around silently.

It didn't matter, she almost screamed.

I saw two more rows of puppets silently added to the corridor that was empty just now.

The puppet looks to be made of wood, about the same height as her, with bright oil paint on the face, wearing cheap and cheap clothes, with an exaggerated and weird smile.

There are a lot of dolls, extending from her feet to the stairs.

The closest one was only half a step away from her.

This... where did it come from?

Wait, this is the second floor, could it be Ren Qiu?

Ning Mianmian suddenly remembered the doll she saw in Ren Qiu's room last night, but that doll was made very realistically, which was incomparable to the crudely made dolls in front of her.

This scene was too weird, Ning Mianmian's heart was beating violently, she looked at Lin Cen, and asked with her gaze - "What should I do?"

The expression on Lin Cen's face did not change at all. He raised his finger and pointed to the corridor, and also signaled with his eyes - "You go first or I go first."

Ning Mianmian was not polite to her, and motioned for her to leave first.

She didn't dare to take the lead, she was afraid that she would be beaten by the gang as soon as she passed.

It's not bad to be beaten to death. In case she makes a noise and attracts ghosts, the half head that appears next time will be hers.

Lin Cen raised his hand, and the black ribbon on his arm was lightly wrapped around Ning Mianmian's wrist.

Ning Mianmian only felt a strong force pulling her forward, making her take two steps forward involuntarily.

Lin Cen stood in front of her, and stopped right in front of the first puppet.

I don't know if these puppets are also afraid of Lin Cen, each of them behaves very quietly, and none of them act rashly.Lin Cen lowered his eyes and raised his finger lightly, motioning for Ning Mianmian to come and take a look.

Seeing that the puppets were not moving, Ning Mianmian bravely moved over and found a few transparent silk threads hanging on Lin Cen's fingers.

It's the puppet's strings, someone is manipulating them in the dark!

Ning Mianmian felt a little better. Although she didn't know how she did it, it was better than this bunch of puppets alive.

She also guessed the intention of the other party, it should be to seize the opportunity to scare them, let them make a sound and then be caught by the ghost.It's really heart-wrenching.

Ning Mianmian took a deep breath and clenched the hammer tightly.She planned that if there was a doll that didn't have eyes to provoke her, she would give it a hammer to let it know that society is dangerous.

But she walked all the way, although the dolls twisted their bodies stiffly, and their eyes stuck to her body viciously, they did not attack her in essence.

When he was about to reach the end of the line, Ning Mianmian's tense spirit finally relaxed a little.However, at this moment, the necks of the two dolls in the last row suddenly tilted, and then, their heads hit the floor in front of her heavily, making a loud noise.

Ning Mianmian:!

She kept her mouth shut, and didn't make a sound.

However, Lin Cen obviously didn't believe in her courage. The moment the head fell to the ground, the black ribbon climbed onto her shoulders, quickly covering her mouth and nose tightly, making it airtight.

Ning Mianmian: ... Are you helping her or wanting her to die?

She couldn't breathe, her face flushed, and she desperately signaled Lin Cen that she would not make a sound with her eyes.

Only then did Lin Cen let go of her.

Ning Mianmian took two deep breaths, and the feeling of lack of oxygen was relieved.

Many people share the same weakness - it's easy to let our guard down at the last minute.Just now Ren Qiu wanted to take advantage of this, to create an accident when she thought nothing would happen, and cause her to scream.

It's really sinister, but fortunately she reacted quickly enough.

Ning Mianmian followed Lin Cen, walked along the silk thread, and stopped at the door of Ren Qiu's room.

She squinted her eyes and observed carefully, and saw densely packed thin transparent silk threads in the crack of the door.

Sure enough, it was Ren Qiu who was playing tricks. Yesterday, I felt that she was being secretive, but I didn't expect that I couldn't help but attack them so soon.

There was a flash of light in front of his eyes, it was the ribbon on Lin Cen's wrist that cut off the transparent thread.

The puppets behind them lost their shackles and fell to the ground one after another, making a crackling sound.

A few flashes of light flashed again, and the black ribbon was like lightning, cutting the puppet into a pile of wood fragments.

Ning Mianmian was very relieved to see it, but it would take a while to clean the corridor on this floor, but this did not affect her good mood at all.

Lin Cen still looked at ease, and raised his hand to point to the stairs—hurry upstairs.

The two quickly reached the third floor, and Ning Mianmian let out a long breath and sat down on the ground.

It was too tense just now, she needs to relax.

She turned to talk to Lin Cen: "Sister, so many dolls, can the trash can hold them?"

Those pieces of wood were spectacular, and she felt that the garbage cans on the seven floors couldn't fit together, so it wouldn't affect the completion of the task.

"If you can't fit it, it will burn. There is a lighter in the drawer." Lin Cen tapped his fingers, and the black ribbon that was flailing just now was wrapped around her wrist obediently.

"You didn't find anything else?" she asked.

others?

Ning Mianmian was slightly startled, quickly sorted out her chaotic thoughts, and then realized something.

She was overjoyed: "I think not only that we cannot attack NPCs, but NPCs should also be subject to certain restrictions and cannot attack us."

It is not difficult to draw this inference.If the NPC could attack her, Ren Qiu would have manipulated the puppets to attack her just now.Once they fight, people will make some noises inadvertently, especially when they are hurt.

Ren Qiu made the puppets appear in the corridor at an extremely fast speed, and tried to scare them with bluff, but he didn't let the puppets do any harm to them.

Then the only possibility is that she can't do it.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't.

Lin Cen agreed with her point of view, "It's okay, not too stupid."

She shook the key in her hand, "Go, go to Liu Zhou's room."

Just now they were stopped by the system outside Zhang Wanjing's door. The reason was that the other party was not dead yet, so since Liu Zhou was dead, they could enter his room.

But how did Liu Zhou die?

As Ning Mianmian thought, she had already reached the door of Liu Zhou's room.

The door of Liu Zhou's room was tightly closed, without any signs of damage.Moreover, the doors here are strong and heavy, and it seems unlikely that they will be damaged.

His body was eaten by ghosts, there are two possibilities.

First, he didn't put an apple by the bedside, so when the ghost came to the door in the middle of the night, he gnawed his head like an apple.Out of some order, leftover corpses appeared in the hallway.

Second, he ran out by himself in the middle of the night and encountered ghosts in the corridor.

But both situations make people feel very strange. According to the work records of the former administrator, this building has existed for some time. There were originally 140 households, but now only 7 households remain.Since Liu Zhou can survive until now, it is impossible not to know these two rules.

So what happened to him last night...

No, there is a third possibility - Liu Zhou was lured out of the room and killed, the body was thrown in the corridor, and then was used as a snack by the ghosts.

But now there are not enough clues, and it is still impossible to determine the cause of Liu Zhou's death.

This time, the two were not hindered by the system and successfully entered the room.

As soon as Ning Mianmian entered the door, he smelled a pungent and unpleasant smell, which was the smell of spoiled food.She quickly opened the window to breathe.Outside the window is a desolate wilderness, the gray sky hangs low, as if there will never be a sunny day.

Liu Zhou's room was very messy. Apart from the apples they saw yesterday, there were many empty beer bottles on the coffee table.There are so many instant food packages in the trash can that it is almost overflowing.

Lin Cen said, "Take all the apples."

Using Xue Lan's apple at night will be buffed. I don't know if Liuzhou's apple is used.But even if there was, since Liu Zhou was dead, it probably wouldn't trigger anything.

Ning Mianmian did as she said, the two of them walked around the living room, found nothing, and turned back into the bedroom.

The bedside table in the bedroom was empty with no apples.I don't know if it was eaten by a ghost yesterday, or if Liuzhou didn't let it go at all.

Ning Mianmian pondered: "Will Xue Lan know anything?"

Xue Lan came back very late yesterday and admitted that she had killed someone.At present, two people died in the apartment, namely Xin Na, who was the former administrator, and Liu Zhou, who lived on the third floor. Could the deaths of these two people be related to Xue Lan?

Lin Cen said, "She won't tell the truth."

Her eyes fell on the desk, "Come and see this."

Ning Mianmian walked over and saw a piece of paper pasted on the desk.On the paper were seven rough ceramic figurines, each with their names pasted on them, the seven remaining people in the apartment.Lines in different directions extend from the foot of the villain, and there are different labels on the lines, forming a diagram of the relationship between the characters.

The system prompt pops up:

[Congratulations on getting the clue [Liuzhou's character relationship map], please check it carefully, it will definitely be helpful to you. 】

Ning Mianmian was secretly surprised, it seems that Liu Zhou is not without brains at all, besides being lustful, he can also do some serious things.

But this is a great help, now they basically know the rules of the apartment.In order to survive while completing the task, it is necessary to clarify the relationship between the characters, deduce the purpose and intention of the tenants, and take precautions.

On the villain, there are notes behind each person's name.

Zhang Wanjing (madman), Ren Qiu (puppet master), Lu Jun (weird power), Mo Shu (witch), Song Yun (little beauty), Xue Lan (executioner).

Ning Mianmian was speechless and choked up when she saw it. What the hell, she was able to write such useless dog-licking notes like "Little Beauty", she really didn't change her nature as a pervert.

It seems that among so many women, Liu Zhou likes Song Yun the most, Song Yun is really unlucky.

But apart from Song Yun, the remarks of others are quite valuable.

Xue Lan said that there are no ordinary people here, everyone possesses magic.They had just experienced Ren Qiu's puppetry, which confirmed her identity as a puppet master.

The skills of the others are not yet clear, but Ning Mianmian feels that most of the remarks are very realistic.

For example, Zhang Wanjing, who looks like a little crazy dark girl, and Mo Shu, whose door is covered with charms, also looks like a witch.

Not to mention Xue Lan, thinking of her smiling face while holding a knife, she would feel that the word "executor" fit her very well.

There are double arrows drawn between Lu Jun and Zhang Wanjing, and there is a love mark on them, which may be a good impression between the two parties.There are also double arrows between Liu Zhou and Song Yun, with a row of hearts drawn on them.Thinking of Liu Zhou's drunk appearance, Ning Mianmian frowned, really wondering where this person's confidence came from.

Liu Zhou doesn't seem to like Xue Lan, there is also a line between his name and Xue Lan, with a knife drawn on it.

Ren Qiu's villain is alone and has no connection with anyone.

Lin Cen looked at it, and suddenly chuckled.

Ning Mianmian was puzzled by her laughter, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Lin Cen pursed his lips, and pointed to Liu Zhou's name with his slender fingers, "He seems to like women who seem easy to control."

It's easy to control, are you talking about Song Yun?

Thinking of Song Yun not daring to open the door yesterday, and his pitiful appearance, it fits this description very well.

And when they came to say hello yesterday, Liu Zhou was obviously more interested in him than Lin Cen, probably because he was blinded by her appearance and took her for a little white flower.

Ning Mianmian thought for a while and said, "I don't think Song Yun is that simple."

There are murderous intentions hidden everywhere in this apartment, and the pitiful little Baihua will not survive today.

Lin Cen nodded, acquiescing to her statement.

She clicked on the two villains of Song Yun and Mo Shu, "Let's go and meet these two mysterious ladies."

Between the names of Song Yun and Xue Lan, and between the names of Mo Shu and Xue Lan, there is a double arrow, with three knives drawn on each arrow, full of murderous intent.

Lin Cen stretched out a slender finger, and pushed Xue Lan's villain mercilessly, "Enemies can see through your weaknesses better than friends."
