MTL - Be a Social Cow In An Infinite Game-Chapter 3 Entering the New World for the First Time (3)

The announcement of death came unexpectedly.

Xia Zhiyi was forced to accept this huge amount of information, and her eyes were full of astonishment.

She had just escaped from her busy work and was about to start a new life. She had even planned the journey, but the one who arrived before the holiday was an accidental death?

What unbelievable news is this!

His eyes flickered, his eyelashes swipe, Xia Zhiyi came back to his senses in a daze, and turned to look at Jing Ruyu.

The other party's expression was serious, and he didn't mean to be joking at all.

"..."

Xia Zhiyi suddenly didn't know what to say.

Those confused words stopped on his lips, like a stick in his throat.

However, she didn't have time to continue chatting with Jing Ruyu, Xiaoqiao urged them to follow quickly, with a look of impatience.

Everyone followed Xiaoqiao silently, the atmosphere was very dull.

Soon, a group of people arrived at the Gu Mansion's wing.

The wing room is in a small courtyard with a stone table in the middle, surrounded by bare white walls on three sides. There is no grass or tree in the courtyard. Very uncomfortable.

The man in the suit said he didn't want to live here.

Xiao Qiao glanced at the other party and grinned: "If you don't want to stay, you can leave, the door is outside, we will never block it."

The man suddenly remembered the gloomy fog outside the door and the monsters in the fog, and immediately shut his mouth.

Everyone was silent, and the atmosphere was dignified.

Xiaoqiao retracted her gaze and directly divided the players into a room, never thinking of asking their opinions.

There are six of them in total, so there is no more or less.

Because Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu happened to be standing next to each other, Xiaoqiao randomly brought them together.

Xia Zhiyi put her hands in her pockets and said nothing.

Jing Ruyu had no objection either.

The room was settled like this.

As soon as the room was finished, Xiaoqiao non-stop issued tasks to them, as if she didn't intend to let them, the distinguished guests, have a good rest.

Xiaoqiao stood at the entrance of the courtyard and said: "The next rest time is noon, and there is still a long time before noon, and the mansion is busy again, so the distinguished guests should start helping now."

Looking around, she pointed at Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu nonchalantly with her finger: "The two of you go to tidy up the warehouse."

He then grabbed a male servant of the Gu Mansion at the door, "You take the two of them to the warehouse, to the last room."

This set of movements is smooth and smooth, obviously they are not regarded as distinguished guests, but as servants of the Gu family.

Xia Zhiyi felt that this new world gave them too much bad positioning, and this last room... sounds a bit dangerous.

Xiaoqiao arranged a circle, and said with a blank expression: "I hope everyone can be more agile, and there is still work in the afternoon."

She left after speaking.

[Players are requested to actively complete the mission issued by the mission NPC, and do not stay where they are. 】

Radio is at it again.

Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu looked at each other in dismay, silently following the servant brother to the warehouse.

It was very quiet along the way, and the other party showed no desire to talk to them at all.

After a while, Jing Ruyu heard the people around him ask softly, "Are you too?"

She turned her head to look at those eyes, who were staring at her with burning eyes, and opened and closed her lips: "You also saw the scene of your own death? What kind of scene?"

Jing Ruyu was slightly taken aback, but smiled without answering.

Xia Zhiyi pursed her lips.

She felt like she got the answer, but also like she didn't. Anyway, Jing Ruyu didn't want to tell her directly.

The other party didn't want to say anything, and Xia Zhiyi didn't press her every step of the way.

They have already broken up, and she is not qualified to interfere with each other's thoughts too much.

She scratched her face, changed the subject, and asked another, more curious question: "Why do you know so much?"

The broadcast gave a reminder to novices, which means that this is a novice dungeon, and those who come here are all people who enter the new world for the first time.

Moreover, the hints given by the broadcast were just that little, but Jing Ruyu was able to tell more information than that, which is enough to prove that she is not simple, or—

"Isn't it your first time here?" Xia Zhiyi questioned her soul.

Jing Ruyu raised her eyebrows in surprise when she heard the words, then smiled and said, "This is my first time here."

Xia Zhiyi asked in surprise, "Then how do you know so much?"

Jing Ruyu calmly said, "Secret."

Xia Zhiyi: "..."

Jing Ruyu said very reliably: "Trust me, just get acquainted, I will not lie to you, nor will I harm you."

Xia Zhiyi looked down at her clothes.

In fact, she never thought that Jing Ruyu would cheat herself, she knew what she was like.

Then she looked up at the mission NPC in front of her and everything around her. Thinking of Jing Ruyu's words and the death in her dream, she still felt unreal.

Not a dream but more illusory and blurred than a dream.

The warehouse arrived soon, and the servant raised his hand and opened the door.

In the monotonous and cold creaking sound, dust was flying.

Xia Zhiyi covered her mouth and nose, and took two steps back.

She raised her eyes and looked in. There were no windows on all sides, and it was dark. Through the light outside the door, she could see the messy things piled up against the wall.

At first glance, it is a place that no one cares about.

"It's here," the servant walked in first, lit the lamp in the room, and said with a blank expression, "Come in and tidy up quickly, and be quick with your hands and feet."

The two stopped outside.

Xia Zhiyi frowned and asked, "What will happen if we don't do the task?"

Jing Ruyu thought for a moment: "Maybe the death condition will be triggered on the spot and sent away early?"

Xia Zhiyi: "..."

It sounds like you don't want to try it at all.

They walked into the dark warehouse, and took the rag and broom from him by the candlelight lit by the servants.

Xia Zhiyi also saw Jing Ruyu brushing the back of the servant's hand with a calm face, and then took the rag calmly.

"Brother," Jing Ruyu said suddenly, "Is there any water source near here?"

The servant answered bluntly, "I don't know."

Jing Ruyu asked again: "Have you heard any strange water sounds in this mansion?"

The servant immediately frowned, showing impatience: "What nonsense are you talking about in broad daylight! No, no, I haven't heard of anything, hurry up and work!"

Jing Ruyu didn't ask any further questions.

"You two sweep the floor, wipe the cabinet clean, and put everything on the floor back. There are a lot of treasures in it, so be careful and don't be lazy."

After finishing speaking, the servant picked up a rag, turned around and went to work, still babbling when he left.

"What are you talking about? I don't know where the lady invited the distinguished guest. I'm afraid there is something wrong with my brain..."

Xia Zhiyi: "..."

Although she thought it was miraculous to be complained about by the gangsters in the dungeon, it was the first time she realized that Jing Ruyu was inquiring about the ferry.

The new world said that only when you board the ferry can you pass the customs.

Shinsekai also said that they had to do missions.

Xia Zhiyi took the broom and looked around the room.

There are large museum shelves on three sides here, and different things are placed in the compartments full of cobwebs and dust, such as scrolls, vases, or unknown treasures.

There is an extra row of partitions on the museum shelves on the left and right sides, and there are several large boxes on it. It seems that neither of them may be able to carry them.

Xia Zhiyi didn't understand either.

Why put such a big box in such a high place? I'm not afraid of being crushed and hitting the baby below.

At this moment, Jing Ruyu walked up to her, and said in a low voice: "He is human, and his hands are warm."

Xia Zhiyi understood instantly.

In this place where there is only one exit, it is safer to be full of people in the house.

Jing Ruyu said: "Go to work, be careful, you don't know what will happen here."

Xia Zhiyi nodded and was very vigilant the whole time.

Although she has no real sense of this so-called new world, it still makes people dare not let down their vigilance. The only person she can trust is Jing Ruyu.

The warehouse is very quiet, and every small sound is amplified.

During the cleaning process, Xia Zhiyi heard a rustling sound coming from above her head, and listening carefully, it seemed that something was scratching the board, intermittently rising and falling in the dark.

As time went by, the voice became clearer and clearer, and the air gradually became colder. Accompanied by the sound, it was constantly digging at the seams of the bones, making the scalp numb.

Heartstrings tensed, she walked to Jing Ruyu's side calmly, then looked back at the servant.

The servant was still sweeping seriously, with a blank expression, as if he hadn't heard it but also seemed to be used to it, treating this thing as an ordinary mouse.

She gripped the broom tightly, no matter what, it's always right to be vigilant.

"Zi..."

The sound continues.

Jing Ruyu naturally heard it too, but after hearing it, the task still needs to be done.

While paying attention to the sound, she wiped the wooden box in front of her, and then slowly opened it, only to find a small short knife inside, which looked extremely sharp, cutting iron like mud.

"good stuff."

She applauded softly, then sheathed it and walked along.

"Received."

Xia Zhiyi who witnessed everything: "?"

What kind of outlaw lunatic behavior is this? ? ?

Jing Ruyu glanced at the servant, who was still immersed in his work and didn't notice her movements.

Looking back, she lowered her voice and said calmly: "There is no way to bring weapons into the real world, we can only collect equipment for self-defense in the instance.

"So, as long as you don't get discovered, treat this place as your own home, don't be polite, take whatever you want from your home."

"Living is the most important thing." Jing Ruyu smiled.

Xia Zhiyi immediately said, "It's okay? You've been educated."

You see, the new world turns people into outlaws.

The servant turned around and saw the two of them gathered together, and immediately said: "What are you two doing together? Hurry up and work separately, and the corners of this area have not been cleaned!

"You, come here and sweep the floor!"

Xia Zhiyi had no choice but to sweep the floor.

She quickly cleaned up the area, and when she passed the museum shelf, a grid suddenly fell to the ground.

Instinctively, she looked back, feeling puzzled—she had never touched this shelf before.

When the servant saw it, he immediately showed displeasure, walked over to pick it up quickly, and reprimanded: "Clumsy, be careful!"

Suddenly, Xia Zhiyi had a strong feeling that prompted her to look up.

The huge wooden box was pushed out at some point, and it was crumbling on the edge of the partition. In an instant, it suddenly fell down—

"Be careful!" Xia Zhiyi exclaimed.

"boom-"

"Puff—"

Xia Zhiyi, who instinctively evaded, leaned against the wooden pillar and looked at everything in front of him in astonishment.

The sound of the wooden box falling to the ground was accompanied by the sticky sound of skin and flesh cracking, and blood splashed everywhere, leaving scarlet blood stains on the cotton mop.

The strong smell of blood instantly permeated the air, constantly stimulating every nerve ending in Xia Zhiyi in the dim light, making her stomach twitch.

he died…

Just like that, he was smashed to death in front of them...

Xia Zhiyi subconsciously looked up and was startled.

There was a "person" with disheveled hair where the large wooden box was originally placed.

His complexion is pale, his facial features are distorted, and the nails on his ten fingers are long and sharp. At this time, he is tightly grasping the edge of the partition, with half of his body leaning out, as if admiring his smashed "work".

Sensing Xia Zhiyi's gaze, his stiff head slowly turned towards her.

After a while, he smiled grimly, the corners of his mouth cracked more and more, and finally he showed a mouth full of sharp, thin and terrifying white teeth.

Xia Zhiyi suddenly met his gaze.

In the dim light, she saw straightforward malice and regret in those eyes.

It's a pity that I couldn't smash her to death.

The author has something to say:

Every time Xiao Xia has behaved badly since then is inseparable from A Yu's every earnest teaching today. [sure.jpg]
