After hearing this, Jiang Yingbai noticed that Xu Ci's standing posture was a bit strange.

Xu Ci finally said, "Then I escaped. I was afraid that the room was no longer safe, so I didn't dare to go back. I thought you would pass by here when you returned to the room, so I wanted to come find you. I was frightened all the way to here."

Jiang Yingbai nodded and asked, "Didn't you encounter anything else along the way?"

Xu Ci's face froze and turned even paler. He looked around in panic and found nothing dangerous before he dared to continue speaking, "No."

Seeing that something was wrong with her state, Jiang Yingbai comforted her in a low voice, "Don't be afraid. There has already been a crisis tonight, and it probably won't happen again."

Xu Ci still had a pale face, far less calm and composed than he was during the day.

Come to think of it, who would have thought that ghosts could actually affect people in the house, create hallucinations, even appear on their mobile phones, and even pretend to be other people.

Jiang Yingbai took out his mobile phone and took a look. There was no news in the group. Sure enough, everything Xu Ci experienced before opening the door was an illusion.

Xu Ci calmed down and asked, "What's the situation on your side tonight?"

Jiang Yingbai told her what happened tonight in detail. Except for Wu Cheng's words and what Wu Cheng said to her, Jiang Yingbai didn't tell Xu Ci a word.

After all, Xu Ci has not been cleared of suspicion. For example, how did she escape? Who knows if she died after being attacked. Now she is pretending to be a ghost, and she has not revealed the reason why she is looking for her.

After being killed, why didn't she find another teammate, but the person with the highest possibility of being killed? Wasn't she afraid that Jiang Yingbai was dead? So Xu Ci seemed to have no problem on the surface, but in fact there were many problems.

But Jiang Yingbai didn't want to go into details, and Xu Ci turned against her. After all, Jiang Yingbai knew her own strength very well, and she was just a rookie in a fight.

Xu Ci thought for a while, "It seems that there is no danger around Wu Cheng, but rather danger outside."

Jiang Yingbai was killed outside Wu Cheng's room, and so was he, so Wu Cheng was a good man? In other words, Wu Cheng's side is a safe place.

Sending a person to Wu Cheng's room every night seems to be to perform tasks one by one and face the danger. In fact, the people outside are facing the danger.

Xu Ci couldn't help but shudder. All of them had been misled by conventional thinking, otherwise she wouldn't have been so careless and wouldn't have been injured.

This mission is indeed as rumored, very dangerous, and I don't know what happened to the other teammates.

Jiang Yingbai clicked on the group chat and typed.

Ji Bai: "How are you doing?"

She asked Xu Ci, "Have you never thought of asking in the group?"

Xu Ci was a little confused and shook his head, "I didn't."

Jiang Yingbai frowned slightly, "Can I ask why?"

Xu Ci held her head in her hands and kept shaking. Apparently she had noticed this abnormality. Her already uneasy heart was almost about to collapse, "I, I, I don't know, I don't know either."

Jiang Yingbai coughed lightly and said in a gentle tone, "Calm down, maybe you are too nervous."

Although it sounded fake, Xu Ci was looking for an excuse to explain her abnormality. She quickly nodded and said to herself, "It should be, it must be so."

Jiang Yingbai made a suggestion, "Do you have any psychoactive potions in your backpack? Do you want to mix some? You are really too nervous."

Xu Ci's eyes, which were so chaotic that they collapsed, finally became brighter, and he muttered to himself, getting more and more energetic as he spoke, "Yes, that's right, why didn't I think of that!"

After saying that, she found the potion and drank several bottles in a row. Only then did most of the uneasiness in her eyes dissipate. Jiang Yingbai saw that she was feeling better and asked, "How do you feel?"

Xu Ci nodded and smiled gratefully at her, "I feel much better, thank you."

She was right. Jiang Yingbai was indeed a good person. After calming down, Xu Ci's chaotic brain began to function normally, and he noticed abnormalities that he had not noticed before. For example, Jiang Yingbai's expression and temperament have completely changed. She is indeed not simple, and her timid appearance before was just an act.

But Xu Ci didn't say anything. After all, among players, the mortality rate is too high, especially recently when there are many players grabbing props, so you should be careful no matter how careful you are.

Xu Ci actually admired Jiang Yingbai's behavior.

Thinking back carefully, Xu Ci suddenly found that one of his memories was vague and he couldn't recall it no matter how hard he thought about it.

Although she was a little anxious in her heart, Xu Ci remained the same on the surface. She knew that if Jiang Yingbai saw that something was wrong, Jiang Yingbai would definitely do something to her, and she couldn't let this happen.

She knew that she was not in the right state, and she could not leave Jiang Yingbai's side. She would at least be safer with Jiang Yingbai. After all, Jiang Yingbai was a good person, and good people often value friendship.

Jiang Yingbai looked in the direction of the corridor. It was dark inside and the woman was sleeping on this floor.

Jiang Yingbai withdrew his gaze and said to Xu Ci, "Let's go back to the room."

Xu Ci nodded, "Okay."

Wu Cheng's room is on the fifth floor. Wu Cheng requested it himself. He seems to prefer higher floors.

Jiang Yingbai's room was on the second floor, and they had to go down two floors. The two of them went downstairs cautiously, being wary of the surroundings and each other.

What was relaxing was that nothing happened along the way. The two of them quickly reached the second floor and successfully returned to Jiang Yingbai's room.

But the two of them sat down and just about to take a breath, there was a knock on the door from outside. The sound was not loud, as if they were afraid of being discovered.

"Dong dong dong."

Jiang Yingbai and Xu Ci looked at each other, neither of them spoke or moved.

"Dong dong dong."

There was another knock on the door.

Xu Ci approached Jiang Yingbai and asked in a low voice, "What do you think it is?"

She deliberately used the word "thing". Obviously Xu Ci did not think that the things outside were people.

Jiang Yingbai replied, "I don't know."

She really didn't know. According to common sense, the possibility of someone outside was very small, but they had just come back from outside. If there was still danger tonight, why didn't they take action just now.

The most important thing is that Jiang Yingbai doesn't trust Xu Ci and doesn't really want to stay with Xu Ci.

After thinking about it, Jiang Yingbai stood up and went to the door.

Xu Ci took Jiang Yingbai's hand. Her body temperature was very cold, even colder than Jiang Yingbai's. "Wait, you better not go. It's better to do less than to do more."

Although she said so, Xu Ci really wanted Jiang Yingbai to open the door. Of course, she could do anything Jiang Yingbai could think of, but she didn't dare to open the door. It was just for show.

Jiang Yingbai shook his head gently and gently took Xu Ci's hand away. "It's okay. I will make my own decision. Just stay here."

An imperceptible smile flashed in Xu Ci's eyes, but he still looked hesitant on his face. After a while, he pretended to say, "Then you must be careful!"

Jiang Yingbai nodded and approached the door.
