Weirdness is coming: Chen Mu Nugui started with trillions of ghost coins

In just two days, two players have died.

Even in the Guimen, it is considered a high-difficulty state.

A gloomy atmosphere weighed down on the players, making it hard to breathe.

Even Chen Mu felt a little unsure.

He was not afraid of a few deaths. After all, he had seen many storms and waves and was used to a few deaths.

What really made Chen Mu feel uneasy was that two people had already died, but he had not thought of any way out of the situation.

Generally speaking, at this time, one should have a few key clues in hand.

But now...

The most likely reason for this situation is that one’s thinking has fallen into a misunderstanding.

To put it simply, my thinking was wrong!

This feeling is like doing a big math test. When you fill in all the blanks, write down the calculation process, and calculate for more than ten minutes, you find that the result becomes more and more complicated...

Those who take exams frequently know that most of the time, the problem-solving approach is wrong.

But what is the real idea?

After the players put the bodies away, they divided the work and returned to the living room on the first floor.

At this time, the male host Zhang Yiqi also woke up and was preparing to make breakfast.

When he saw the players coming out of the basement with one person missing, Zhang Yiqi's face froze for a moment. He had already thought of something.

"Another one died?" Zhang Yiqi asked, "Is the old man so powerful that even you detectives are helpless?"

At this time, under high pressure, the players no longer had the reservedness and politeness they had when they first arrived.

Wang Yikai asked directly: "Zhang Yiqi, we need to know more clues. If you have anything to hide from us, tell us now."

"Hide? What hide?"

Zhang Yiqi asked back seemingly in confusion, but the perceptive Chen Mu noticed that after Wang Yikai finished speaking, Zhang Yiqi was stunned for less than a second.

Wang Yikai continued to ask: "Did the old man really slip and fall to his death? I mean, is there a possibility that he was... strangled to death?"

Zhang Yiqi understood. He looked at the other person and said loudly, "Are you suspecting that I strangled my dad? That's my dad. I strangled my dad?"

Zhang Yiqi's face flushed a little, and he looked like he was arguing with reason.

Wang Yikai did not answer, which clearly meant "You know whether you have something to hide or not."

Seeing that the situation was developing in a bad direction, Chen Mu came out in time to ease the situation.

"Brother Zhang, don't get me wrong, that's not what he meant. What he meant was, after the old man fell in the shower, did the clothesline or something happen to be hanging around his neck and he was strangled to death?"

"No, my dad fell to his death."

Zhang Yiqi didn't want to argue anymore and went to the kitchen to cook.

The Wilderness Wanderer glanced at Wang Yikai. This guy is quite smart, but he was a little impulsive and almost angered an important NPC!

The Wild Wanderer nudged Chen Mu, and his meaning was very clear. Should he remind this kid not to act on impulse?

However, Chen Mu just smiled and shook his head without saying anything.

The players didn't say anything else. Li Sansan went to sit at the dining table and looked towards the kitchen, fearing that Zhang Yiqi would poison them.

Fortunately, everything was normal. Zhang Yiqi was suspected to be a little angry, but he did not do anything out of line.

While eating breakfast, Wang Yikai suddenly stood up, picked up a glass of water on the table and pointed it at Zhang Yiqi.

The Wild Wanderer was frightened and thought, is this guy crazy? Is he going to attack Zhang Yiqi?

However, Wang Yikai held the cup and said to Zhang Yiqi: "Brother Zhang, I was emotional just now. I didn't mean to doubt you. Your father passed away, and you must be very sad. I offended you."

After saying that, Wang Yikai drank the water in the cup and said, "There is no wine here. I will use water instead of wine to apologize to Brother Zhang."

Zhang Yiqi's anger also subsided. He quickly took a glass of water and drank it all. "You lost two friends. I can understand how you feel."

The tense atmosphere was resolved by two glasses of water.

The Wild Wanderer was dumbfounded. He always liked to be straightforward, including kneeling to lick Boss Chen.

Wang Yikai's actions, switching between the good cop and the bad cop, made the Wild Wanderer exclaim in awe.

From beginning to end, there was a faint smile on Chen Mu's face.

Chen Mu had seen through it long ago, and Wang Yikai wanted to rely on this "provocation" to get new clues. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yiqi didn't buy it, and Wang Yikai was able to control himself and took the initiative to lower his head to restore the relationship.

Be able to bend and stretch, and get angry not to vent your emotions, but to use "emotions" as a means to achieve your goals.

This Wang Yikai is a stunner.

After breakfast, the players began to act separately according to the agreed division of labor.

Chen Mu, with the Wilderness Wanderer and Li Er'er, opened the door of the living room and came to the lawn in the yard.

The rain was still falling and a thin mist hung in the air.

They didn't feel it inside the house, but as soon as they walked out of the living room, Chen Mu and the other two felt the biting cold wind.

The town, which was already sparsely populated, was now completely deserted.

On the remote streets, there was only a drizzle of rain and a thin white mist.

After they left the house, the Wilderness Wanderer asked, "Boss, do you think we can survive tonight if we don't take a shower or touch water? In that case, do we have to be careful?"

"Oh? Beware of what?"

"Everyone knows that touching water at night is equivalent to death. Now everyone has learned to be smart and does not touch water, otherwise the old man will kill people randomly. Will someone secretly pour water on others while they are sleeping and trip them up?"

"Haha, don't worry."

"Boss, you must be on guard against others."

"What I mean is that water and death are not strongly correlated," said Chen Mu.

"Huh? Why?"

"You forgot that we both brushed our teeth and washed our faces last night. Theoretically, we both came into contact with water."

Chen Mu said it all. In fact, he also recalled this detail, combined with other judgments, and felt that water was not the real way to survive.

So where is the real way out?

Chen Mu stood outside his neighbor's door and reached out to knock on it.

Perhaps the real way out lies behind this door.

After knocking three times, Chen Mu and the other two waited quietly.

After several minutes, there was no sound of the door opening.

"There shouldn't be anyone here, right?" Li Er'er said weakly.

"Then knock again." Chen Mu said, and knocked a few more times in succession, this time with a louder sound.

After knocking, Chen Mu put his ear against the door and listened to the noise inside.

A few seconds later, Chen Mu finally heard footsteps coming from the door.

The other person walked very slowly, and after a long while, he finally arrived at the door.

As the sound of a door opening was heard from inside, a musty smell wafted out.
