Li Susu and Zhang Mengshan were also confused.

Why did the man in black robe suddenly say that before leaving?

Was that a warning of Chen Mu's death, or a threat of the black-robed man's impotent rage?

Not only Li Susu and the other two, Chen Mu also couldn't figure it out.

Li Susu comforted him, "Don't think too much, Chen Mu. We are following the director's rules. The black robe can't hurt us. It's just saying harsh words to you."

Chen Mu didn't say anything, he was a little uneasy.

Li Susu said it easily, but the man in black robe had his eyes on Chen Mu, not them, so of course they were not that nervous.

As if seeing Chen Mu's thoughts, Li Susu said: "Chen Mu, don't think too much, we are grasshoppers tied to the same boat. Have you forgotten the curator's rules?

If the black robe kills you and puts on the fifth black robe, then we will all die. So if you die tonight, we will not be able to escape.

I think the Black Robe did that just to bluff us and make us lose our composure. As long as we stay calm and don't panic, there will be no problem."

Li Susu's comfort actually didn't make Chen Mu feel much more at ease.

Even Zhang Mengshan didn't believe too many words of comfort.

After all, what Black Robe said was too abnormal. Since it said so, was it really just a threat?

Inside the mysterious door, strange threats may very well be a warning of death!

"By the way, do you have any props?" Li Susu asked Chen Mu, "Props must be used at critical moments. Others die and their props are not used yet."

Chen Mu shook his head. "I'm a newcomer, how can I have any props? Do you have any? You must save me when the time comes. We are all in the same boat."

Li Susu shook her head. "We don't have any props, so we can only leave it to fate when the time comes."

The three of them talked for a while, but no one had much to say. Now that things had come to this, they could only wait for night to fall.

Li Susu and Zhang Mengshan went back to work.

When they were far away from Chen Mu, Li Susu whispered, "Are you still bringing your props this time?"

"Yes. What do you mean, let me save Chen Mu?"

"No, well, when the time comes, let's see if Chen Mu has any props. If he can't do anything, we can't just watch him die." Li Susu said, "In order to save ourselves, we have to use it."

Zhang Mengshan looked unhappy. He did hide a small golden human-shaped prop, which he called - Indestructible.

The effect of the prop is that it can protect a person from any external attacks and keep the body intact for one minute.

This is Zhang Mengshan’s life-saving prop, and he is even reluctant to give it to Li Susu.

Now let him prepare himself mentally for using it on a stranger?

Zhang Mengshan must be reluctant to do so. "Forget it, we'll see when the time comes."

Night falls.

After dinner, the players returned to the "morgue" to rest.

Everyone remained silent and the atmosphere was a little cold.

Chen Mu knew that he and Li Susu were grasshoppers tied to the same rope, but not completely.

Li Susu and the other person only need to hold on until 12 o'clock to escape.

It was only after 12 o'clock that I was able to escape.

On the surface, the time seems the same, but there is a gap of more than ten minutes between death and being made into a black robe.

This means that after 11:40, Li Susu and the other person will have to watch themselves die.

"It can't be such a coincidence." Chen Mu thought to himself, "The black robe can't be so smart to choose that time to attack me. If that were the case, I would be isolated and helpless."

Time passed slowly, and at nine o'clock in the evening, it was time for patrol and night watch.

From 9:12 to : is Chen Mu’s patrol time.

Before he left, he glanced at Li Susu and the other person, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but say:

"Can you guys... come with me... we're all teammates..."

Facing Chen Mu's request, Zhang Mengshan refused outright, "Brothers should settle accounts clearly. We agreed last night that you will be on patrol tonight, so you can't cheat."

Chen Mu sighed, he also knew it was impossible.

We are all strangers, why bother about other people's life and death?

Chen Mu didn't say anything. His back was trembling with fear, and he left the room with a lonely look on his face.

Zhang Mengshan and Li Susu were not much better off.

They hid in the room, anxiously looking at their watches, praying that twelve o'clock would come soon;

While praying that nothing would happen to Chen Mu before 11:40.

In the library, Chen Mu was moving back and forth among the bookshelves.

He would turn his head from time to time to look behind him, or look up at the ceiling.

For some reason, Chen Mu could always feel as if there were a pair of eyes quietly staring at him.

An hour passed and Chen Mu was not in danger for the time being.

But he still didn't dare to take it lightly, and his back was soaked with sweat.

Eleven o'clock at night.

There is only one hour left for the players to escape.

Chen Mu's back was already wet, and the feeling of being stared at became stronger and stronger.

When Chen Mu passed by a bookshelf, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black plastic bag floating behind the gap between the books.

Black robe reader!

Chen Mu quickly turned his head and saw the man in black robe staring at him from a distance on the other side of the bookshelf.

It's back!

It's really back!

The players clearly followed the curator's rules, and there was clearly no corpse today, but the man in black still returned here.

It did what it said and took its own life at night!

Thinking of this, Chen Mu did not hesitate, he immediately turned around and ran for his life.

In the dark library, Chen Mu was running wildly among the rows of bookshelves, and behind him was the man in black robe chasing him relentlessly.

At this time, in the "morgue".

Zhang Mengshan paced back and forth anxiously, looking at his watch from time to time, "There are still fifty minutes left. This is really tough!"

Li Susu didn't say anything. She just sat on the bed, looking down and thinking about something.

For some reason, Li Susu always felt that something was strange.

Chen Mu was clearly in danger, but he didn't shirk his responsibility and went out on patrol honestly... Was he really so obedient? Or was there something else going on?

Li Susu thought about the previous two days and then she thought about what happened on the first night.

Li Susu, who had been silent all the time, suddenly raised her head.

She looked at Zhang Mengshan and said word by word: "Mengshan, I seem to know the real rules. Chen Mu is very cunning, he must have guessed it, but he didn't tell us.

He hid it from us, he lied to us!

We should act now. If we don’t, I’m afraid we are in danger as well.”

Zhang Mengshan looked at Li Susu, "What do you mean? The real rules?"

"Yes, the curator's rules are actually only half of what he said. The remaining half of the rules need to be pieced together to form the complete rules!" said Li Susu.
