It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger

The thing was under his bed. Xiao Huai didn't get up and remained quiet.

He was waiting, waiting for it to reveal its intentions completely.

After a while, Xiao Huai heard the sound of that thing moving nearby, very subtle, like a feather falling to the ground.

It's looking for something.

No one really thinks that Xiao Huai would put the gold coins in the room.

Gold coins are special items in this copy and cannot be stored in the system space, so they can only be carried with you or hidden.

An arc of light fell, and raindrops pattered against the window.

The humidity in the room seemed to have become damp due to the rain outside the window.

However, Xiao Huai vaguely felt that this was not the case.

It wasn't because of the heavy rain outside the window, it was because of the thing in the room.

Xiao Huai remained quiet and silent until... that thing finally crawled out from under the bed and climbed onto his bed.

Xiao Huai frowned slightly, his limbs felt heavy as if they were filled with lead, and a hissing sound kept coming from his ears.

He realized something was wrong and was stunned when he opened his eyes.

A pair of round, dark eyes were right in front of him.

A chill crept up his back, and Xiao Huai's fingertips trembled slightly.

This is definitely not a human being.

But it is a monster similar to a water ghost.

His long hair stuck to his sticky skin, he was too thin to be human, his face was covered with moss and water stains, his complexion was almost pale, and the blue veins on his face could be seen clearly.

The moment it locked eyes with Xiao Huai, the monster's eyes widened even further, its ferocity unable to be concealed. It grabbed Xiao Huai's neck and roared from deep within its throat, "Master likes gold coins! Hand them over!"

"Tsk." Xiao Huai didn't expect this monster to be so strong, even though its size was about that of a seven-year-old child.

Disobedient children are really troublesome.

A faint golden light emanated from Xiao Huai's body, and the next second, a small hand rested on the monster's hands that were strangling Xiao Huai's neck.

With a little force, the little monster screamed in pain.

"Big brother, are you afraid of such a small thing?" Hanako giggled, grabbed the water monster's neck with one hand, and carried it like a chicken.

Xiao Huai touched his neck and smiled faintly, "A little."

But in fact, Xiao Huai could have killed the water ghost monster based on its smell before it came over, but that would have been meaningless.

The player who can control such monsters is hidden among them.

A game with 100 players is already considered large-scale, and it is impossible for all of them to have simple minds.

The key is to find the culprit behind it.

He was not good at extracting information through torture, especially when dealing with child-like monsters.

But Hanako is different. She is very good at dealing with these little guys.

In the previous copy, the information Hanako obtained from the ghost boy was very good.

Intelligence is very important in horror games.

Important things should of course be left to professionals.

"Hanako, please help me find out more things. As for how to ask, you know." A hint of coldness flashed in Xiao Huai's eyes.

A bright smile appeared on Hanako's lips, "Hanako loves asking questions the most!" She turned her head to look at the water monster with a hint of bloodthirsty madness in her eyes.

"Let's start with hide and seek!"

As she finished speaking, a black hole appeared under her feet and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The sound of rain outside the window was getting louder and louder, and the skin on Xiao Huai's neck was stained red.

He stood up and walked to the window. From the angle of the window, he could vaguely see some of the stained windows of the west building.

The windows of the west building are not monotonously transparent, but are similar to the rose windows in churches.

He stretched out his hand, his fingertips rested on the window, his eyes fell on the rose window, but his thoughts had drifted far away.

----

When Hanako appeared again, she lowered her head, frowned slightly, and the air around her was a little low.

Her body was covered in dark green liquid that smelled faintly of blood.

Only Hanako came out, and the water monster had disappeared.

"Big brother..." Just as Hanako was about to apologize, she heard Xiao Huai speak first.

"Are you okay?" Xiao Huai came to Huazi, squatted beside her and helped her check her wound.

Hanako was stunned for a moment, "Shouldn't I ask Hanako how the mission went first?"

"Oh, do you want to ask?"

Compared to those things, Xiao Huai cares more about the condition of his companions.

Hanako's brows relaxed, and her expression softened considerably, "Big Brother is the best!"

She took out a small notebook with not much written in it, and she also drew some pictures on it.

"Hanako was about to ask it more questions, but it suddenly exploded. All that green is its blood, so Hanako is fine."

She flipped the notebook to the page with the picture and said, "Hanako found this pattern on it. I wonder if it helps."

Xiao Huai's eyes fell on the notebook. The pattern on it was an eyeball pierced by a sword.

Xiao Huai's eyelashes trembled slightly. "Apart from this pattern, are there any other ones?"

"Yes, it seems to like its owner very much and wants to do something to please its owner."

Hanako added, "Its owner might not even know that it came here to look for Big Brother."

Xiao Huai said calmly, "How could I not know?"

Since it knows that its owner wants gold coins, it means that its owner has given it psychological hints.

Its final self-destruction was not necessarily voluntary; it was possible that the person behind it simply abandoned it without hesitation.

Tame the water ghost monster and make it loyal to him, and even let it come to him to look for gold coins.

As for the chess piece that was out of control, he just threw it away, and this person mixed in with their crowd.

Who could it be?

Hanako's stay was almost up, and she was still reluctant to leave Xiao Huai. "Big brother, Hanako can't help you from now on, but Hanako will always bless you in her heart!"

Xiao Huai nodded, unscrewed the sugar cube bottle that Xiao Qian gave him, took out a piece of candy and handed it to her.

Hanako's eyes widened when she saw the candy. Just as she was about to eat it, she suddenly frowned.

"How strange." She frowned and muttered to herself.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Huai raised his eyes and leaned lazily on the edge of the bed.

Hanako carefully examined the shape of the sugar cube and said, "I don't know, it just feels strange. I feel like I've seen this sugar cube somewhere before."

Xiao Huai's eyes darkened. "Do you remember where it was?"

Hanako clapped her hands, "I remember now! When we were playing hide-and-seek just now, it dropped a candy that looked very similar to this."

"Hanako can help big brother find it." She returned to the hide-and-seek space.

Another candy she brought out still had some green blood on it.

Xiao Huai took the candy, put it to his nose, smelled it, and took a deep breath.

His brows seemed to twitch, and he said lightly: "Well, I understand."

"Big brother, what's wrong? Could the person who gave it candy be its owner? Big brother, have you seen that person?" Hanako realized something was wrong and asked immediately.

Xiao Huai just shook his head: "It's okay."
