I Heard That I'm Super Fierce

Don't let him find you.

Lin You silently read the words on the piece of paper again.Without saying a word, she refolded the note and put it in her pocket instead of putting it back under the vase.

... Who does "he" refer to?

She couldn't help but looked at the small apartment room again, and everything she looked at was covered with dust like that vase.

The landlord must have not cleaned the place properly, leaving all the work to her, a new resident.Of course, this attitude and the location of the apartment building blocked by the utility poles also fit the definition of tenements.

If Lin You was really the tenant who came to the rental house with big bags and small bags, he would probably have a lot of headaches.But she is not, and this has become a good thing for her.

——Just like the note that was pressed under the vase, there may be more clues in the things left by the previous residents.

Lin You searched around, but couldn't find much.

The previous one might have left in a hurry, and all the miscellaneous things left behind were some daily necessities and tools. She also found a box of shaving cream from the cabinet—it seemed that she might be a man who lived alone.

Finally, she found what she was looking for in a corner of the drawer of the bookcase.

It was a thin book, and Lin You carefully brushed off the dust on it.After reading three or four pages, she realized that, like the cover, this was just an ordinary novel magazine.

But when she continued to flip back, a few pieces of paper fell out of it.

Lin You picked up the newspaper clippings that fell on the ground one by one.

"Henry Davis, Cole Anderson..."

She read the name on it to herself.There are a total of five pieces of news clipped and included in the book, all of which are cases of missing children, the oldest of whom is no older than 11 years old.

The only thing they all have in common is that they are all in the town of Praia——

Lin You glanced out of the window again.

An old billboard not far away reads "Welcome to Playa".

So this quaint little town had kids disappearing one after another, and the guy who lived here before her seemed to have investigated those disappearances?

It seems that he has put himself in it.

After thinking about it, Lin You felt that something had slipped past, but she didn't notice it for a while.

Lin You: "........."

She forgot that she had teammates.

Probably because waking up alone in the single room of the apartment reminded her subconsciously of the school she went back to. Her first reaction was to check the room again, completely forgetting that she had entered the dungeon in a group.

She opened the door slowly.

There are only four households on the first floor of this small apartment building. Her room is next to the stairs, and after a while she heard hurried footsteps coming up from the bottom.

"Lin—you——"

Seeing the young girl who opened the door here and rushed to the stairs with her shoulder-length wavy hair, she strode towards her and complained softly, "Do you know how many times I went up and down to find you?"

"Heartbreaker! Don't tell me you forgot about me!"

Lin You, who really forgot: "..."

Wait, what the hell is a heartbreaker.

She was about to say hello so that she could take it there, when the door next to her opened a crack.

"Seeing that it's you guys outside the door, I'm relieved," Geng Qinghe said with a sigh of relief, "I was wondering if it was the standard routine of a murderer hiding in the apartment, maybe it's B-level open the door to kill."

Girl: "... who is this?"

Lin You thought it necessary to be a middleman.

"Geng Qinghe, the student I met in the last dungeon, because of the happy cooperation, I also joined the group just now." She introduced, "This is my little one."

"Concise and good."

said the young girl briskly.

"The matching profession is a pharmacist, and it's okay to play a guest role as a doctor."

"That being said, I haven't asked yet," Jian Mingjia turned her head, "You Youyou, you are a newcomer, have you passed your job? What kind of job do you have?"

Lin You: "Summoner."

Jian Mingjia: "...What are you calling for?"

Lin You didn't talk nonsense, and called out the illustrated book with a wave of his hand, and spread out all kinds of pictures of ghosts and monsters. Anyone with a discerning eye can see what this profession is called.

Jian Mingjia: "..."

Knowing this little girl's style well, she was not surprised at all.

"Okay. By the way," she thought of something, "I just looked back and forth for a long time. If everyone didn't stay behind closed doors like you two, there would probably be only three of us in this copy."

The players placed by the system are relatively concentrated, just like they were all in the minibus before, this time they should all be in this apartment.

"Three-person books...?"

Lin You thought about it, "How about going down first? I'm a little concerned about that telegraph pole."

Jian Mingjia and Geng Qinghe had no objections, and the three of them went downstairs together.The apartment manager was not at the front desk, Lin You glanced outside the door, it was dark, and there was not much time left for them to move freely.

"By the way," she asked, "Aren't you an intern during the day, why did you come to this point?"

Jian Mingjia froze, then sighed.

"Don't mention it, resign."

Lin Youxin said that she knew it.

"Didn't I tell you?" Jian Mingjia shrugged, "'Little Jane, go and get a glass of water', 'Little Jane, print out my child's file'—you can't do anything serious if you ask me to do it. Okay, I have to keep them working overtime. Excuse me, I'll go find someone who can really learn something tomorrow."

She quickly changed her words again, "No, no, don't rush tomorrow. Wait a few days and let me brush up a few more copies before going."

"Speaking of dungeons—" Jian Minjia said, "What happened to the telegraph poles, have you found any clues for this dungeon?"

"that's it."

Lin You stuffed the note and the news into their hands, and approached the telephone pole by herself, "I suspect that all the missing persons notices of those children are posted on it."

--really.

With just a quick glance, Lin You found the names of Henry and Cole in the missing person notices.

It described in detail what kind of clothes they were wearing when they disappeared, and posted photos respectively.There was also an apparently new post, a little girl named Emily.

Probably just disappeared.

"All these were found in the room?" Geng Qinghe asked suddenly.

"correct."

"I don't have mine." He scratched his head. "I learned from you. I almost searched every corner. Don't talk about clues, I didn't even leave a hair for me-maybe no one lived there before."

Lin You looked at Jian Mingjia again.

"I——I was thinking of coming to you directly, but I didn't see much in my room." The latter replied, "But I probably didn't."

That's weird, Lin You thought, why all the clues are piled up in her room.

She somehow felt that this was not a good thing.

It was completely dark in the time of talking alone.The forest in the distance looked more and more unfathomable in the darkness, and even a gust of wind seemed to bring whimpers.

[Don't let him find you. 】

Thinking of this sentence at the same time, the three of them looked at each other, and Geng Qinghe shrank his head, "...how about we go up?"

"We'll do this tonight," Lin You said, looking at the watch on his wrist. "Go back to each house and go to bed at ten o'clock. I'll ask the residents of the town the next morning about the missing cases."

In cooperative mode, this period of time will only be skipped if all players choose to go to sleep.

"So be it."

Jian Mingjia sighed and complained, "Why is my room downstairs..."

Even so, she still said "good night" and went into the room and closed the door.Seeing her like this, Geng Qinghe was too embarrassed to linger. His bleak back made Lin You feel that if the system didn't automatically sleep, tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

She went into her apartment and locked the door behind her too.

——There are still two and a half hours before ten o'clock, what should I do?

The things that were shown to the two of them had already been returned to her, and they were put into her pocket again.Lin You thought about not searching again, because she was a little sloppy before, maybe she could catch another mistake.

After thinking about it, she turned around and walked into the bathroom closest to the door.

The room is not big, and the private bathroom is even more cramped, with the shower, sink and toilet squeezed together.Lin You stepped on the stool and looked at the cabinet above her head, only seeing a layer of dust.

She dug out the shaving cream from this wooden cabinet, and it is still neatly stored in the corner.

There was a mirror hanging under the cabinet, and Lin You was standing facing the mirror.When she got off the stool with nothing, she caught a glimpse of something passing by in the mirror out of the corner of her eye.

...?

Taking a closer look, she was the only one in the mirror.

illusion?

——No, the illusions in horror movies are generally real.

Lin You, who knew this well, did not relax, and still looked at the mirror.At this time, a crisp laughter suddenly sounded in her ears.

The little girl seemed to be laughing softly next to her ear, but her voice was very indistinct.This kind of laughter from time to time is mixed with a bit of vicious sharpness, and it is in the bathroom at night, which makes people feel chills down the spine.

But Lin You was definitely not the one with the chills down his spine.

who is she.

The door was blocked by a bloody boss again, and I saw the legendary black goat cub with my own eyes. No matter how you say it, I have seen something big.

What a mere laugh.

At this moment, she also saw that there was probably something wrong with the mirror, so she reached out, grabbed both sides of the mirror, took it off from the hook, and hung it upside down facing the wall—a gesture of indifference.

As if she hadn't expected her behavior at all, the little girl's laughter stopped abruptly.

The silence didn't last long. Just as Lin You was about to step out of the bathroom door, she heard the sound of banging on the wall again.

It was as if someone was facing a wall and couldn't get out, and was so angry that he smashed the mirror inside.

The sound became louder and louder, until after 1 minute, Lin You went back and forth, and then spread the things on the side of the sink——

A claw hammer and four iron nails.

"Look, I put things here."

Lin You was very friendly.

"If you're not honest, then I'll have to nail the mirror to the wall—you choose."

The world is finally quiet.
