Chen Mu's low shout made the players' hearts rise to their throats.

Everyone looked into the yard and saw that it was completely quiet, with only a faint firelight burning in the old man's room in the woodshed.

The picture looks peaceful and tranquil.

"What's wrong?" The charming girl patted her chest and said, "Don't scream and scare me. I'm already scared to death."

Chen Mu said in a serious tone, "Everyone, look at your door."

The doors of the rooms where the players slept were all closed, and there were no signs of shadowy activity inside, so there was nothing unusual to be seen.

Chen Mu's next words made the players' hearts rise to their throats.

"I remember that I didn't close the door when I left."

After hearing what Chen Mu said, Jiao Chong'e's eyes widened. He remembered that he did not close the door after he came out.

At that time, because we were going to find the man-eating ghost, everyone was very nervous and focused on dealing with the man-eating ghost.

And for some reason, the doors were very heavy after midnight, so no one put in the effort to close them.

"I remember it very clearly, I didn't close the door," said Jiao Chong'e.

The players did not close the door before leaving, but now the door was closed.

So the question is, who closed the door?

What's the purpose?

"Who do you think closed the door?" Jiao Chong'e asked.

The players all looked towards the old man's house in the woodshed where the fire was still on.

The old man in the woodshed hasn't gone to bed yet. The yard is quite remote, so villagers generally don't come here.

Apart from the cannibal ghost, the person most likely to close the door is the old man in the woodshed.

Could it be a man-eating ghost?

Chen Mu judged that it was unlikely because they had not encountered any man-eating monsters along the way.

If the cannibal came to the yard first, there would be no time to kill the widow.

Moreover, the boy in the young couple died, which means that the man-eating ghost was following Chen Mu and his friends, waiting for an opportunity to hunt down the players.

It seems that the Man-Eater Ghost cannot split itself, so how could it hunt players and then come back to close the door for them?

The most likely person is the old man in the firewood room!

Since he closed the door to the players, it meant that he knew the players left in the middle of the night.

Chen Mu remembered that the old man in the firewood room had not come to see the players a few nights ago. Why did he come to see the players tonight?

Besides, it’s early in the morning now, what is the old man doing instead of sleeping?

Thinking about what he had just asked the old man today, about ghost marriage, Chen Mu felt more and more that the old man in the firewood room was a little weird.

Chen Mu looked towards the old man's house and said, "Let's go meet him and find out what he has to say."

The players rushed forward and arrived at the old man's door.

Sure enough, in the early hours of the morning, the old man was still awake!

He sat in front of the fire, staring blankly at the door.

When Chen Mu and others came in, the old man simply ignored them without even saying hello.

Jiao Chong'e was good at socializing. He smiled and asked, "Old man, why are you still awake so late at night? We were passing by here and just happened to come in to see you."

However, the old man still ignored Jiao Chong'e's questions.

The old man seemed to have lost his soul. He sat in front of the fire in a daze, making a fire to keep himself warm.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became weird and strange.

An old man sat in front of the fire pit in the middle of the night without saying a word, his eyes staring blankly.

Anyone who sees this will feel a chill in their heart.

Especially in the weird missions, there are still cannibal monsters, which makes the players even more panicked.

Zhang Shu couldn't help but reached out and touched the old man.

But the old man didn't pay any attention to him, he just moved his feet and ignored Zhang Shu completely!

Seeing such a weird old man, the players were helpless.

Waiting any longer would just waste time.

Chen Mu winked at Jiao Chong'e, who nodded and waved to the players.

The players left the old man's room and went to Chen Mu's room, ready to gather together to discuss countermeasures.

When I pushed the door open, it still felt heavy.

Chen Mu even suspected that the door was locked from the inside.

With the joint efforts of several people, they finally entered the house.

After making sure the door was closed, Jiao Chong'e spoke first:

"Everyone, the situation is not good. There were seven of us when we came here, but now there are only four left. We still have to hold on for two more days.

What do you think of the current situation?"

After Jiao Chong'e finished asking, Zhang Shu and the charming girl both turned their eyes to Chen Mu.

Obviously, in the minds of the players, Chen Mu and Jiao Chong'e are the two think tanks of the team.

Now Jiao Chong'e is helpless and can only rely on Chen Mu.

Chen Mu pondered for a moment, and suddenly said:

"Everyone, I have a bold idea. Where do you think the man-eating monster is hiding?

From the beginning of the mission till now, we have never seen the appearance of the Man-Eating Trickster. But the Man-Eating Trickster can easily find us and kill us.

It is all around us, but we are unaware of it.

Is there a possibility... that the Man-Eater is good at disguise, and it disguised itself as a villager?"

Faced with Chen Mu’s bold idea, all the players present looked at each other in surprise.

Yes, why couldn’t the man-eating monster be found?

They have also participated in strange missions. No matter how scary the strangeness is, they can still see what it looks like.

No matter how covert it is, at least when killing someone, you can still see the strange appearance.

But the man-eating monster is very special. From the beginning to the end, players only know that it has a red veil and red shoes, and have never seen its specific appearance.

Chen Mu couldn't help but change his thinking. Is it possible that it's not that the players have never seen it, but that the players see it every day but can't recognize it!

Chen Mu's words made the players wake up.

Zhang Shu immediately said, "The old man in the woodshed! I think something is wrong with him. Look at how he looks tonight. He doesn't look like a normal person at all.

And he was closest to us and most likely to check our room every night.

He locked our door tonight, it would be the easiest for him to kill us!"

The charming woman couldn't help but say, "But I think the old man in the woodshed is a pretty good person, he doesn't look like a murderer. During the day he even shared his food with us."

"You are stupid!" Zhang Shu said, "It is possible that he has two different personalities during the day and at night.

Isn't it normal to be a good guy during the day and a bad guy at night? Look at the way he looked just now, does it look like he was possessed by another spirit at night?

And when you said he gave us food, it gave me a bad feeling. Did he feed us like sheep? "

Chen Mu did not deny Zhang Shu's idea. In a strange mission, everything is possible.

"Not only the old man in the firewood room, but other villagers are also very likely. I think what Chen Mu and Zhang Shu said makes sense. So, let's think of a way tomorrow and find out who is most likely to be the man-eating ghost!"

Jiao Chonge continued, "Whoever has the red veil and shoes is most likely a man-eating ghost!

Especially for people who live alone, they don’t have to worry about being discovered by others and are the main suspects.”
