MTL - Be a Social Cow In An Infinite Game-Chapter 37 Who is the murderer (18)

Zhou Xiuxiu floated on the ceiling, surrounded by pale corpses.

The corpses were entangled with hair, hanging down, like the prey of a spider, and there was nowhere to escape.

Xia Zhiyi was silent: "..."

This picture is too exciting.

Watching ten horror movies is not as scary as watching this one.

She tried to keep her eyes off the corpses.

She also didn't know what Zhou Xiuxiu meant by "judgment time" and whether it could be explained with common sense.

But from such a big battle, she can clearly perceive that this trial will not be a good thing.

Maybe if she is not careful, she will directly confess to this trial, and there is no way to send the answer to Jing Ruyu.

Zhou Xiuxiu remained motionless, her hair fluttering around her covered the entire ceiling.

Her eyes slowly fell on Xia Zhiyi: "Why don't you talk anymore, are you scared?"

Xia Zhi saw that she wanted to hear him talk, thought for a while, and said, "Hmm... keep your voice down, your parents are sleeping?"

"..."

Zhou Xiuxiu smiled and said, "They can't hear you."

Xia Zhiyi was curious: "If they can't hear you, then they can't see you either?"

Zhou Xiuxiu didn't answer directly: "This is none of your business."

Xia Zhiyi frowned.

This attitude made her seem to have guessed the answer, but also seemed not to.

Zhou Xiuxiu obviously didn't intend to talk nonsense, she looked at the densely packed red letters on the bed and the floor, and directly cut to the point: "Xia Zhiyi, about everything in this room, I can answer you a question, beyond the scope of the number.

"Only this time, you have to seize the opportunity."

Xia Zhiyi moved her neck, and her intuition told her: there is a pit.

The corners of Zhou Xiuxiu's lips curved slightly.

Yes, there are pits.

What she wants is for the player to ask any line of words that appears in this room, any accusing remarks.

As long as they ask, her life will be theirs.

This trick works well because fools always fall for it.

Xia Zhiyi looked at her tied hands with difficulty, and could vaguely see the outlines of some scarlet letters, like tattoos, without pain or itching, it felt very strange.

She turned her head to look at the wall and the ceiling again, and finally her eyes fell on Zhou Xiuxiu again.

Xia Zhiyi said softly, "Can I only ask one?"

Zhou Xiuxiu replied: "I can only ask one."

Xia Zhiyi: "Oh, then I'm done asking."

Zhou Xiuxiu: "...?"

Caught off guard.

He was actually tricked by her!

Zhou Xiuxiu's face turned dark immediately: "Don't be opportunistic, I will give you another chance to ask serious questions."

"?"

Xia Zhiyi refused to accept it: "You kid, you only have one chance as you said!"

Zhou Xiuxiu didn't care about it, and said like a fool: "I am the king of ghosts, I have the final say!"

Xia Zhiyi: "...Oh."

Okay, you ghost king, you are amazing!

Zhou Xiuxiu only gave her a minute to think about the problem.

Xia Zhiyi was trapped on the bed, unable to move, only one pair of eyes was still functioning.

In the sound of ticking water, the free line of sight sweeps across the wall, sweeping all the places that can be seen.

Under the pale moonlight, every trace of air in the room was filled with frightening eerieness.

This is a court of justice.

Judging every player who comes here, including her.

So she could see the words on the wall, hear the dark voice lingering in her ears, and feel the pain and suffering, as if she was the victim trapped here—just like Zhou Xiuxiu in the past.

She suddenly knew what she was going to ask.

"Is this what you said, a secret that I can't bear?

"You are also part of this room, so this question should not go beyond the scope."

After finishing speaking, she stared straight at Zhou Xiuxiu, waiting for the answer.

Zhou Xiuxiu looked at her who was trapped on the bed, her eyes were dark, and she seemed to be able to see her former self in a trance.

Right here, being discussed by strangers, pointed at by strangers, judged by strangers.

She didn't want to care about these dirty and barbaric remarks, but she happened to see it, and it was engraved in her mind like a brand from then on, which couldn't be wiped off no matter how hard she tried, like a gangrene attached to the bone.

So after her body was hurt, her mind was also hit hard, the wound was torn open again and again, she suffered in pain every day, and finally her desire to live was finally wiped out little by little.

This is her secret.

An unbearable secret.

"Yes."

A very concise answer.

She hated Sun Jun, Jiang Wei, Bao Mingyu, and those strangers.

We've clearly never met each other, and we don't know each other well, so why do we speculate on me so much?

I obviously did nothing wrong, why do you slander me so much?

I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong...the one who was wrong was never me! !

She jumped down from the tall building, let the fierce hatred create hell, and also made her the master of this hell, and became the appearance that thousands of people fear today.

As their retribution, she returned.

Xia Zhiyi got a clear answer, and also confirmed the last answer in this silence.

"I'm done asking.

"Have I passed your trial?"

Zhou Xiuxiu was silent, neither speaking nor moving.

Doesn't seem to be in a good mood.

Xia Zhiyi didn't hear her voice, but she clearly felt that the restraints on her body were loosened.

The victim culpability that was pressing on her like a stone is slowly retreating to its original position, and continues to stick to the wall quietly, as if nothing happened.

This is Zhou Xiuxiu's answer.

Xia Zhiyi rolled her eyes: "Thank you, good boy."

Zhou Xiuxiu was stunned for a moment.

Xia Zhiyi suddenly gave up half of the seat to the side, and patted the bed lightly: "Do you want to lie down and chat? If you are unhappy, you can also talk to your sister."

Zhou Xiuxiu: "..."

Xia Zhiyi: "Come on, don't be shy."

Zhou Xiuxiu was speechless.

She is quite daring to share a bed with the ghost king.

Zhou Xiuxiu moved in response to the sound, her body floated down, and her toes landed on the ground, but she ignored Xia Zhiyi and walked barefoot to her desk.

The long black hair gently opened Xia Zhiyi's two math books on the table for her. She glanced at them and commented with a blank expression: "No challenge at all."

Then he turned and opened the door and walked out.

Xia Zhiyi turned over to watch her every move, and raised her eyebrows when she saw her open the door and go out.

Such an elegant ghost king, you have to open the door when you go out, instead of going through the door directly.

Diagonally opposite Zhou Xiuxiu's room is the room of Zhou's father and Zhou's mother.

Xia Zhiyi saw the young Ghost King stop in front of his parents' room, and remained silent.

She is no longer that innocent little girl who can act like a baby to her parents at will. Now she is so spooky and can make countless people tremble and fear. She is no longer what her parents remembered.

Xia Zhiyi quietly watched her standing like this, then suddenly turned around and left after a while, her movements were quiet, and she didn't know where she went.

Xia Zhiyi seemed to understand something.

Her parents probably couldn't see her...

Xia Zhiyi couldn't help but sighed, and immediately felt pity for the ghost king.

Her parents love her, and she loves them too, but at this moment, Yin and Yang are separated. What a tragedy in the world.

Those who forced her to death should really pay the price and let them go through such pain, let's see if they can still laugh!

At this moment, Xia Zhiyi suddenly thought of his parents.

If she died like this without passing the test of the new world, they would be very sad too...

No, she has to live, she must pass all tests—with Jing Ruyu!

Firmly determined to live again, Xia Zhiyi turned over to go to bed and recharge her batteries.

Zhou Xiuxiu didn't close the door for her when she left, it's fine if you don't close it, the ground is full of sticky blood, and she wouldn't step on it even if she had ten guts.

It's these individuals hanging from the ceiling... somewhat disturbing sleep.

She tentatively whispered towards the door, "Xiu, can you take away the people on the ceiling?"

The voice fell.

"唰" twice.

Two people were pulled into the ceiling, disappeared, and then nothing happened, and that was it.

Xia Zhiyi was in a complicated mood: "..."

What a kind and not so kind ghost king.

She hugged her bag slowly, closed her eyes silently, and under the sound of ticking water and the gazes of the horrified corpses, she tried her best to sleep and coax herself to sleep.

This was the most exciting night she had slept since entering the new world.

…

On the second day, the sky was dim, and birdsong sounded outside the window.

In a daze, Xia Zhiyi heard someone calling her beside her ear: "It's time to get up."

She opened her eyes and saw Mother Zhou sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at her with a smile: "You're awake, it's time to get up, brush your teeth and wash your face, eat breakfast and go to school."

Xia Zhiyi woke up instantly, and sat up from the bed in a jiffy.

She glanced at the wall, but there was no writing.

Looking at the floor, there was no blood either.

The computer screen is also black, quiet, as if nothing happened last night.

The darkness is gone, and day has come.

Outside the window, it was bright.

Xia Zhiyi's mood brightened instantly.

— come alive!

"Morning, Auntie!" Her voice was particularly brisk, "I'm sorry to disturb you all night, thank you!"

Mother Zhou was taken aback by her sudden liveliness. After recovering, she bent her eyes and smiled and said, "You're welcome, let's get up and have breakfast."

Xia Zhiyi nodded in agreement, and followed her to get up.

Before leaving, Xia Zhiyi folded the changed nightgown and placed it neatly on the bedside.

Looking at the cute cat pattern on the nightdress, she smiled.

"Thank you, Xiuxiu."

Zhou's father and Zhou's mother sent her out.

Standing at the door, she turned to look at the parents.

The pain of bereavement left a haggard look on their faces, and even their jet-black hair was a bit old silver.

At this moment, she suddenly thought of Zhou Xiuxiu who stood silently at the door of their room for a long time last night.

That kid must really want to meet them too...

"Uncle, aunt," Xia Zhiyi turned to them, "If you don't mind, can I give you a hug?"

Zhou's father and Zhou's mother looked at each other, as if surprised that she would make such a request.

After a while, the two chuckled and opened their arms.

"do not mind."

Xia Zhiyi walked up to them, hugged them, and patted their backs lightly, with a thousand words in it.

Zhou Xiuxiu stood not far away, watching all this silently.

The long hair behind her quietly wrapped around her, like a hug.

…

In the school, Jing Ruyu was waiting at the school gate early in the morning, constantly looking at the time on the watch, feeling more and more anxious.

She couldn't feel at ease if she couldn't see Xia Zhiyi for a second.

If Xia Zhiyi doesn't come back after three minutes, she will climb over the wall and go out to find her!

God seemed to have heard her heart. She had just made this rebellious decision when she saw Xia Zhiyi's figure not far away.

— She was running towards her with her bag on her back.

"Jade!"

Jing Ruyu's gaze fixed on her immediately, and he couldn't help scanning her up and down.

It's fine, no injuries.

After receiving this news, the tense heartstrings finally relaxed.

Once Xia Zhiyi saw her, she was not afraid of anything.

Passing through the school gate, she subconsciously wanted to throw herself into her arms again, just like yesterday.

But in the next second, he suddenly remembered Jing Ruyu's cold sentence "We have broken up" yesterday, and his pace slowed down.

She is no longer qualified to hug her as she used to, hug her however she wants...

She calmed down and walked much calmer: "I'm back, Ruyu."

Unexpectedly, Jing Ruyu is not calm this time.

She walked in two steps in three steps, quickly shortening the distance between them, and finally hugged her tightly, as if unwilling to let go.

"It's fine if people are fine, it's fine if they're fine."

Jing Ruyu feels relieved.

Xia Zhiyi was slightly taken aback.

There was a clear sense of gratitude and concern for her in that tone.

She heard it right, and she couldn't ignore it.

This person clearly still has her in his heart...

Realizing that the person she likes still has herself in her heart, Xia Zhiyi is a little happy.

This is enough to prove that she was not wishful thinking.

They just like each other, they are consensual, and they have a strong affection, even to the point where they firmly believe that the other party is the lover who can accompany them for the rest of their lives.

It was this breakup that caught people off guard.

However, Jing Ruyu still kept it from her and refused to tell.

Xia Zhiyi grabbed Jing Ruyu's clothes and didn't mince words with her: "You like me."

Jing Ruyu: "..."

Xia Zhiyi: "You still like me, if not, why are you hugging me so tightly?"

Jing Ruyu came to her senses and let her go quickly.

Xia Zhiyi: "It's too late, there is no more than three hundred taels of silver here!"

"..."

Jing Ruyu put her hands behind her back in a calm manner, and looked at her calmly, with a very calm tone.

"You misunderstood me. I was out of concern and concern for my teammates who didn't come home overnight. I have always been so kind."

Xia Zhiyi: "..."

Heh, Jing Ruyu, you better be!

The author has something to say:

Xia Zhiyi: Your mouth has hardened, it was obviously soft when I kissed before!

Jing Ruyu: [take notes.jpg]

Xia Zhiyi:?

Jing Ruyu: This is subject to discussion. We will practice it in the future to see whether it is soft or hard.

Xia Zhiyi: ...Oh, woman.
