Global Collapse

Chapter 337 Making a Wish
"cocoa……"

The voice still emanated from the back of my head, close to my scalp, sending chills down my spine.

That's a woman's voice; Gu Mian could never make such a sound.

We need to get out of here quickly!

But just then, Coco saw Chu Changge in front of her suddenly stop.

In the darkness, Coco slightly opened her mouth. Why stop?
Before she could utter a sound, she saw Chu Changge suddenly turn around, and the flashlight he was carrying also turned around, its pale light shining on the stairs toward the direction from which the sound came.

Coco was taken aback by Chu Changge's unexpected actions and froze on the spot.

Chu Changge didn't react much after turning around; he just stared motionlessly behind her, as if he saw something, yet also as if he saw nothing at all. Seeing this, Coco also turned her head slightly, wanting to see behind her.

But just as she turned her head halfway back, she felt a hand suddenly grab her shoulder, and then the exact same voice came from beside her ear: "Coco, what's wrong with you? You won't answer when I call you... And Miss Chu, what's with that expression?"

what?
Coco turned her head to look in the direction from which the sound came.

A short-haired girl, about the same height as him, was standing in front of him. The girl looked a little nervous, with a hint of fear in her expression.

Is it... a living person?
Although the other person could call her by name, Coco didn't know this girl at all. The girl knew "Keke" instead of Coco, who was a player who had joined the instance halfway through.

However, Coco reacted quickly, immediately giving an ambiguous answer: "We're just too scared... Why are you here too?"

They were inexplicably sent to this place, and Coco guessed that the person in front of her was also one of the twelve, who had also been inexplicably sent here.

But Coco didn't know the girl's name.

Just then, she suddenly felt Chu Changge drawing something on her back.

Coco immediately recognized that Chu Changge was repeatedly writing the word "moon" on her back.

Thinking of the names of the twelve players, Coco immediately connected the person in front of her with Pan Yue.

Right, Coco realized.

Just by looking at the names, she recognized five of the twelve people from her class. After excluding the five players from the dungeon—Gu Mian, Fatty, Chu Changge, 007, and Yue Nu—she only didn't recognize two of the twelve people: Li Wentao and Pan Yue.

The girl in front of him is unlikely to be named Li Wentao.

Pan Yue's face showed a strange expression, as if she felt that there was something wrong with the two people in front of her, but she seemed to quickly put it aside: "I don't know why I came to this godforsaken place. I was at school, but in the blink of an eye, I'm here..."

At this point, Pan Yue's tense expression turned somewhat strange: "How come you have a flashlight?"

Upon hearing this, Coco quickly explained, "This is what we found here."

As Coco spoke, she slightly turned her head to look down. Gu Mian's voice hadn't come through yet, so it seemed he was probably in grave danger.

Pan Yue, who was standing in front of her, didn't seem to care much about the flashlight or Coco's actions. She spoke with a hint of fear, "I thought I was dreaming... It was so dark around me. I called out to others but no one answered. I couldn't see anything and I was too scared to move... Then I saw a light here, so I followed the light and came here. That's when I realized this was a staircase, and then I saw you all."

Chu Changge looked down and saw that there was indeed a door at the bottom of the staircase, which was where Pan Yue had come out.

At this moment, Pan Yue shrank her neck and looked around: "Why are you all here too? Are you like me?"

Coco nodded: "Yes, we also ended up here by some strange coincidence. Actually, there were five of us together..."

"Five people?"

“That’s right,” Coco said. “Besides him and me, there were Gu Mian, Lin Qi and Wang Pang, but all three of them mysteriously disappeared on the way.”

“How could this be!” Pan Yue’s eyes widened. “So, all the people here are…” “They are all people who played that game a week ago,” Chu Changge’s voice came from behind Keke. “That game hasn’t ended, so it’s being replayed in a different way now. We are currently in the game ‘When Darkness Falls,’ and now is the time for the ghost to kill.”

Chu Changge spoke while keeping his eyes fixed on Pan Yue in front of him.

The identity of this person who suddenly appeared is questionable; it cannot be determined whether she is a ghost or a commoner.

"That's impossible!" Pan Yue suddenly raised her voice, but then lowered it again, as if she had suddenly remembered something. "I remember Zhang Pingfan telling me before... he was afraid to play this game..."

Zhang Pingfan? Chu Changge caught the name Zhang Pingfan.

This name has been appearing repeatedly since they entered the instance, and at this stage, the mysteriously missing Zhang Pingfan is definitely the most suspicious person.

Based on available information, Zhang Pingfan and Pan Yue seem to have a good relationship.

Coco realized this too, and she immediately asked, "What did he say?"

Pan Yue seemed a little lost in thought, probably because the surrounding environment was too dark, making her very uneasy.

Coco's arm was grabbed by Pan Yue, who looked nervous: "Zhang Pingfan, he said before that he was afraid to participate and that he was afraid of dying. It's ridiculous. Do you remember the night we played the game? The classroom lost power right after we handed out our identities. Zhang Pingfan was the first to rush out. The next day, he told me that he forgot to take the slip of paper with his identity written on it and didn't even have time to look at it."

Identity? Chu Changge frowned. If there were a note with his identity written on it, things would be much easier.

Coco narrowed her eyes: "Has anyone secretly looked at Zhang Pingfan's identity card?"

Pan Yue looked at Coco with some curiosity: "Do you also think that our sudden appearance here is related to that game?"

“Not only that,” Chu Changge said, stepping down two steps, “now ghosts can kill people, and anyone could die during this time period.”

Pan Yue still had an uncertain expression on her face: "Although we did appear here inexplicably, that game isn't as mysterious as you make it out to be, is it?"

“It’s true,” Coco said. “I saw three other people who were with us disappear right in front of us. As soon as we went down the stairs, someone would vanish.”

Pan Yue was still skeptical: "Did you get separated from them because you weren't paying attention?"

“No, it wasn’t,” Coco frowned. “They were right behind me, even holding my hand, and then they disappeared the next second.”

Pan Yue couldn't understand: "Maybe they were behind you, and you didn't notice them and you drifted apart from them."

Coco was so annoyed that she was about to reply when the surrounding light suddenly disappeared.

In just a moment, the flashlight beam completely disappeared from sight.

And then came Pan Yue's scream.

"Ah!" Pan Yue suddenly grabbed Coco in front of her. "What's wrong? What happened!"

Coco, her hands trembling, slowly took out her flashlight and turned it on.

The lights illuminated the area once again.

It's just slightly different from before.

Chu Changge has disappeared.

I wish that Gugu could earn 10,000 views a day tomorrow. [Hands clasped together]
